ner, and a largo and fashionable audi
ence signified Its complete approval of
the Innovation by demanding an en
coro to every number on the list."

matters were acted upon, although tho
entire action of tho conforenco Is whol
ly advisory. Its decreoB hnvo no bind
ing force.
Tho conforenco reaffirmed tho reso
lutions of the procpdlng conference,
and In addition adopted eight further
propositions. It declared itself in fa.
fpr of a still moro careful and compre
hensive supervision of tho work of stu

brary work, business management, etc.
Tho conforenco emphatically favored
tho establishment of university resi

it Is not a-y.iln hopo that somo day
a universal- tongue, such as tho much
talked of Esperanto is touted to bo,
mny bo realized, according to Presi
dent Georgo E. MncLean of tho Unt
vorBlty of Iowa formorly chancellor of
Nebraska, who addressed tho mooting
of tho central division of tho Modern
ianguago astoclatloq of America.
ProBidont MacLean laid much stress
upon tho phonetics of language and
while not putting tho stamp of appro
val upon tho RooBovoltlun spoiling, ho
commended tho trend of tho efforts In
no uncertain tones. Tho langungo men
from tho leading unlvorsltles of many
surrounding states, who had come to
gether to'dlscusB their favorito ton
gues, were unprepared for tho sugges
tion that they consider tho attainment
of a new and universal language. Pres
ident MacLean In a moro academic
voln declared that tho .sclentlflo study
of languages had settled onco and for
all tho quarrel between, tho ancients
and tho moderns, for It had established
that they wore, aftor all, of ono family.
