MONETARY CONFERENCE.
President Andrews, of Brown University, Writes Letters that Create a Stir.
Colorado Springs, Mch. 12.--A letter just received by the Summer university managers here from President E. B. Andrews, of Brown university, Providence, R. I., cancels that gentleman's engagement for next summer. He says: "I expect to be, in July, either abroad at the monetary conference, or else using every minute in getting ready to go."
The letter is important from the fact conveyed that the international monetary conference is to be held this year and that President Andrews is to be one of Mr. Cleveland's appointees thereto.
SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT
New York.--The letter of Dr. Andrews to Prof. Turnbull, of Colorado Springs, has been taken to imply that Dr. Andrews had been appointed by President Cleveland as one of the monetary commissioners and that a conference had actually been called, but a telegraphic inquiry to Dr. Andrews brought the following reply:
To the Editor of the World.
Providence, R. I., Mch. 10.--Inference from letter to Turnbull wholly unwarranted. Have received no new appointment. Know absolutely nothing of president's plans. Mean to attend next conference, but not necessarily as a member.
ANDREWS.
Dr. Andrews was one of the American delegates to the Brussels conference in 1892.
