The orders given are sometimes o very large, as may be judged from 3 the fact that Messrs. Kelway & Son. * - wholesale seed growers and merchants of Langport, Somerset, (who s have for some year* been amongst e the successful competitors for a poril tlon of this order), have this year n received from the United States Govy eminent from Washington an order ,t for Flower Seeds and Vegetable Seed8 alone totalling in weight nearly 44 tons. This is probably'one of the largest orders for flower and vegetable eeeds r; ?ver received by one firm from one customer, as It Is not composed even In part of Agricultural seeds or of Is large seeds such ae peas and beans. h Many hnndrads of acres must have h been under cultivation far the proh duotlon of the weight In queetlon. it How large an area such an enormous i- quantity of seeds would sow seems ?f almost past human, computation. m Of tha four otkar European Arms r- who (lu addition to tha Langport i- firm) are this year favored by the i.

They will probably leave the city the morning of July Mh for Hanfpton % Roads, where they will embark on the U. S. 8. Rhode Island, of the Atlantic fleet. The objective point of thto cruise will be the Dermuda Isl ands, and It Is expected that the bluejackets will be given several days' shore liberty In which to visit tho points o flnterest about the islands. This year's cruise of the local militia Is to be made In connection with that of the bluejackets from North Carolina, who will also board the Rhode Island at Hampton Roads and the militiamen from Pennsylvania and New Jersey, who will board the vessel at Lewes, Del. The battleship will set sail from the lower Chesapeake on the <th and will proceed to Lewes, where the Northern satlorrnen will be taken aboard. Several of the supernumerary members of the regular crew will be put ashore here until the weBsel returns from her cruise. The local militiamen will return to Hampton Roads July it. The cruise of the naval militia this l year wlfl be the first under the terms of the naval militia act adopted by Congress laUt February, and which requires the naval mllttla organization to meet a regular navy standard set by the Navy Department. The officers and men who cruise on the Rhode Inland will man the batteries and fighting masts during targe! practice, which probably will be held on the southern drill grounds on the tiUnrn trip. The marks maffe at thli target practice will determine the winner of the gunnery trophy to be awarded to the naval militia gun crew which makeB the best scores, and thte winning naval militiamen will be permitted to wear the white letter "E" for efficiency In gunner) on their uniforms for one year.

I S ASKS I A CONFERENCE HUEkTA ENVOYS AND REBELS WILL PARLEY This Country Persuades Carran zn to Consent Both Hostile Factions Will Be Ashed To Make Sacrifices. " * Niagara Falls.?The United States government has Invited representatives of General Carranra and Gen eral Huerta to meet at \n Informal conference tie re with the hope of bringing about the pacification of Mexico. The Huerta delegates Informed the 9 American delegates, through tbe mediators, that they were willing to deal with tbe Constitutionalists in this way. , Just how the two elements will be drawn together remained a secret today and it became known that strong pressure had been brought to bear on General Car ran aa through the American government and Chat the mediators had persuaded the Huerta government to come luto the plan. intormai parleys between tne rep- ~| resentatlves of the two factions out- I side of the formal mediation proceed I Jng but with the counsel and advice of the American delegates Is the ob- | Ject of the new plan. This move was adopted as a last resort?every effort to get the Constitutionalists to J agree to an armistice as desired by H the mediators having failed. ' The appeal, which Is said to have Influenced both factions. Is that Mexicans themselves must save their country from further spoliation and feJ '"bloodshed by each making certain | sacrifices but neither side will be ask ed to abandon their principles for which they have been contending. 1 It will be several daya before the plans wiU materialize and Constltu- I tlonalist delegates can arrive. Meantime the mediators and Huerta and American delegates will con I tlnue their discussion of other points In the general peace plan than those I on which they have been deadlocked. ' The determination seems to be to leave the question of provisional president to the two Mexican factions to decide. Any agreement Which they may reach will be sanctioned by the* American government and the results of the negotiations later would be Incorporated in the j ' mediation proceedings for final agree mcnt. The advantage of the new plan it is Baid, is that the conferences will . be continued while the situation In ' northern Mexico is developing. 1 The Huerta delegates are said to I) I 'have consulted their government and . 'secured permission to deal with the Cor .tutionalists. i After the conference between the / American delegates and the media- / i tors Justice Lamar said he had not been authorized to make any slatei ment. He Indicated, however, that I the proceedings would be oonslder1 ably prolonged. No Inkling was giv en as to what had been discussed, t secrecy being scrupulously main) lained on either side. A few minutes later the Mexican 0 delegates were summoned for a eony Terence with the mediators. Washington, D. C.?Indications here today were that the coming of three new representatives of the Con c stltutlonalist movement would open y the way for Informal conferences be tween those forces and the American r mediators at Niagara Palls. That - the mediators themselves will wel >- gates can do with the Constitution n allstg was assured here In official e quarters. h The ChTee new delegates enroute c here said to have the aipproval of >t General Carransa and General VII' >- la, are Fernando Ygleslae Calderon, n who has been In conference with I- Carransa at SaTtlUo; Alfredo Brec!e ceda, aide to Carransa and Leopollo ie Hurtado Espinosa, a member of the >r conefrence during the Madero add ministration.
