Bngland has accepted the invitation of the United States to participate in tbe conference, Mr. Wharton said, with the proviso that the programme of subjects to be discussed was satisfactory. This programme has been drawn up by the commissioners of the United States, headed by Admiral and submitted to thj English government. No answer has yet been received. The programme covers a great many subjects under the general head of navigation of vessels, for the regulation of which the conference was called. It can be modified and probably will be, as it is largely suggestive in character. Several smaller nations, however, have not yet ac; cepted tbe invitation to send commissioners, end are probably waiting until England takes final action in the premises.

Bngland has accepted the invitation of the United States to participate in tbe conference, Mr. Wharton said, with the proviso that the programme of subjects to be discussed was satisfactory. This programme has been drawn up by the commissioners of the United States, headed by Admiral and submitted to thj English government. No answer has yet been received. The programme covers a great many subjects under the general head of navigation of vessels, for the regulation of which the conference was called. It can be modified and probably will be, as it is largely suggestive in character. Several smaller nations, however, have not yet ac; cepted tbe invitation to send commissioners, end are probably waiting until England takes final action in the premises.
