FROM WASHINGTON.

An Interesting Batch of A’ew* From the Capitol. From our Regular Correspondent. Washington, June 1, ’94. Senator Hill seems to possess in a marked degree the faculty for stirring up the Senate whenever he has a mind tq do so. It wiil be some time before the Senators on that investigating commitlee get over the racking down he gave them in his speech for persecuting the newspaper men who published the sugar trust charges and neglecting so < plain away of getting at the truth as examining under oath the Senators against whom charges were made, and it is already plain that the speech has had effect of making the committee understand that persecution of newspaper men will not be accepted as exoneration for the Senators who have been charged with wrong doing. Senator Hill’s championing of the wright of newspaper men to decline to give the names of those from whom they get confidential information was entirely unexpected, but it was none the less appreciated on that account. It has been a long time since the newspapers had any surplus of friends in the Senate. • 9 ® The fate of the sugar schedule of the tariff bill, now about to be decided, will settle that of the bill. The republicans have been working hard to secure votes , enough to beat the sugar schedule, but they have not succeed- • ed, and, unless there is some radical change, will not succeed. • 09 Coxey’s army has been joined by Galvin’s men and the combined forces marched into Washington Memorial Day and decorated the Peace monument. The men are not happy. They have been living this week on bread and water, a diet that is not calculated to make anybody happy. They still say they intend to re*, main until Congress acts upon their petition. If they do they will stay along time. Coxey’s lawyers are going to try to get him out of jail under habeas corpus proceedings. • 90

Postmaster General Bissell has stirred up a hornet’s nest by writing a letter opposing the bill providing for government < ownership of all telegraphic lines, which was framed by a -committee of the International Typographical Union and has been endorsed by labor organizations in all sections of the counj try. The P. M. G. concluded his letter against the bill as follows: “I believe the incorpation of the postal telegraph with the mail service of this country would add enormously to the annual deficit without correspondingly advancing the interest of .public, and it is, therefore my judgment that the bill ought not to become a law.” This was op position from an entirely unexpected quarter, as every head of the Post Office department for a decade past has been in favor of some sort of a governmnt telegraphic seviee, but it has not frightened the supporters of the bill, who deciare that if this Congress does not pass the bill the labor organizations will make 'government ownership of telegraph lines an issue in the coming Congressional election, voting against every candidate who will not pledge himself to vote for it in the next Congress, They contend that if Mr. Bissell’s argument is good the carrying of the mails, which is done at a |oss, should be turned over to private parties. The subject is a live one. © e 9 Representative Black, of Georgia, the man wh® defeated Tom Watson in the last Congressional election, made the somewhat remarkable assertion in the course of a speech in favor of the repeal of the tax on State bank currency, which is now 7 being considered by the House, that

the United States Supreme Court had no more right to bind the House in its actions than the House had to bind the Supreme Court. • 9 9 The Lake Carriers Association doesn’t like the bill introduced by Representative Lockwood, of N. Y., intended to prevent the employment of Canadian sailors on American vessels, and Col. R. C. Parsons and Harvey D. Goulder, of Cleveland Ohio, appeared before the House Committee on Immigration this week, to state why the association opposed the bill. The clause they particularly object to is that requiring that seamen shall be domiciled in the U. S. six months before they are eligible for employment on American vessels. • 99 The Hawaiian question, which has spas modically occupied the attention of the Senate for more than a year, was by Senator Kyle's persistency forced to the front again this week. Mr. Kyle asked the Senate to pass a resolution merely declaring that this government would not interfere with Hawaii, as a means of stopping the rumors of the intended restoration of royalty, which he declared his private letters from Hawaii said were frequent and decidedly embarrassing to the Hawaiian government, and to show his indifference to the wording of the resolution, offered to withdraw his own resolution in favor of that report from the committee on Foreign Rela tions months ago. That did not suit Senator Vest, who offered a substitute declaring against annexation. The Senate evidently favors annexation, as it promptly voted 36 to 18 to lay Mr. Vest’s substitute on the table. Later it was agreed to pass a resolution declaring against interference and not mentioning annexation.

All Europe Under Arms.

From an article on "The Peace of Europe.” by M. lie Blowitz, in McClure’s-Magazine for .1 one. After the Franco-German war of 1870-1871 the principle of prolonged military service and of diminished annual contingents was given up. The monstrous principle of universal service was adopted instead. By this rule the whole nation is under arms. A country is no longer a country, a people is no longer a people; a nation is now nothing but an army, and a country is only a barrack. Everybody wears the uniform. Everybody is sur lequi vive. If war break; out to-day all professions become deserted, all functions abandoned; the life of the nation stops so that nation-' al activity may be said to begin again only with the blood that is shed. Moreover, before two hostile armies, that is, two nations which are enemies, join in combat, each of the two armies, that is, each of the two infinite hordes which traverse several countries to meet eventually on the field of battle, will leave behind it a country in famine, its factories silent and its trade parlyzed. Again enormous stocks of food supplies must be accumlated on the frontiers where the

two armies are likley to meet; but before reaching these inexhaustible magazines the armies must be fed while crossing their own territories, and that requires money, so that before even the first gun is fired, each army will have expended enormous sums and left in its train towns and villages stripped of men and beasts, the cites in famine, the country without a single tiller of the field.

Donahoe’s for June.

The discussion of popular gov ernment based on universal suffrage which was begun in the May number of Donahoe’s, and which has created such widespread interest, is continued with vigor in the June number, the significance of certain recent public utterances being dwelt upon. Two radically different articles are “The Blessings of Monopoly,” and “The Oasis of Siwah.” In the former, Rev. T. A. Hendrick, a Catholic clergyman, presents the strongest possible argument for the competitive system and for monopoly, its inevitable result, and in the latter article a German writer shows, in the form of an ellegory, the meaning of rent and interest. The halo surrounding the name of John Brown is somewhat ruthlessly dispelled in a most chaming article by Catherine Frances Cavanagh on “Harper’s Ferry and the Man who made it Famous.” Rev. Dr. Shahan continues his scholarly and fascinating study of “The Ancient Schools of Ireland,” and Mary Elizabeth Blake has a remarkable strong Spanish story. The illustrations of the number and the shorter articles are up to the magazine’s usual high standard.

Circuit Court.

The Jasper Circuit Court convened last Monday afternoon, with Judge U. Z. Wiley on the bench. As a general thing the first day in court there is but little business of any importance ransaeted. On Tuesday,! the time was mostly by making the preliminary arrangements of the various cases on the docket of a probate nature. Two divorce cases were brought up and disposed of. That of Stockwell vs. Stockwell wav, taken up and a divorce granted the plaintiff, together with the care and custody of an only child. The parties reside in Walker township. A divorce was also granted in the case of Alice M. ‘Wheeler vs. Edmund Wheeler. Both parties are residents of Jordan township. M. F. Chilcote was the attorney in both these cases. In the divorce case of Spencei vs. Spencer, appealed to this court from White county, tl e plaintiff asks for an allowant e of 83,500 for the further pr< secution of the case, and that point will be argued by the attorneys to-morrow moinior. This is, undoubtedly, the me st interesting case that will come up this term. There is a fu’l dock* tth s term, but it is believed that the majority of the caseswill be easily disposed of. The grand jury will rot be called during this term of court.

Nothing in This World Is so cheap as a newspaper, whether it be measured by the cost of its production or by its value to the consumer. We are talking about an American, metropolitan, daily paper of the first class like THE CHICAGO RECORD. It’s so cheap and so good you can’t afford in this day of progress to be without it. There are other papers possibly as good, but none better, and none just like it. It prints all the real news of the world—the news you care so day, and prints it in the shortest possible space. You can read THE CHICAGO RECORD and do a day’s work too. It is an independent paper and gives all political news free from the taint of party bias. In a word—it’s a complete, condensed, clean, honest family newspaper, and it has the largest morning circulation in Chicago or the west—l2s,ooo to 140,000 a day. Prof. J. T. Hatfield of the Northwestern University says: *‘ THE CHIC AGO RECORD comes as near being the ideal daily journal as we are for some time likely to find on these mortal shores. ” Sold by newsdealers everywhere, and subscriptions received by all postmasters.
