Exhibitions, Int'l. Conferences, Maritime Canals, Pacific Cables, Railroads, Trade and Commerce With Foreign Nations, Tariff Restrictions The committee see nothing in the documents to them referred to prove that the states who originated the project of this congress and settled the subjects proper for its deliberation, and who most probably have already adjusted the preliminary rules of that assem bly, will admit as fit matters for discussion any others than those which they themselves have so previously announced.
