PLEA FOR THE , PORTO RICA TARIFF BILL. In the April Forum Albert J. Hop kins, one of the Republican members of congress who voted for the Porto Rican tariff bill as it passed the house, has an article giving the grounds on which the bill was favored by the Republican majority. The points he makes are certainly very the following Wl V-A liV IT C U UW V tariff duTiesonTproSucTsun ported from the Philippine Islands and Porto Rico are unconstitutional; free trade between them and the United States being guaranteed, the same as in the case of free trade between Illinois and Iowa. This means the breaking down of our tariff laws against the products of cheap labor. It means, also, the breaking down of all legislative protection against Asiatic coolies; the Chinese and Japanese laborers in the Hawaiian islands and in the Philippine archipelago becoming Americin citizens. It means, furthermore, that industries established in Manila and other parts of the island of Luzon, by aggregated capital, to manufacture with cheap labor products for the use of the peoole of this country, have the right to send such products without let or hindrance into the United States to compete with the products manufactured by hiirh-priced American labor. Under this construction of the constitution, the 11.000.000 people living in the Philippine archipelago become a distinct menace to the laboring interests of the United States; so that these . islands, instead of proving a blessiusr. as all Americans believed they would when Admiral Dewey achieved his brilliant victory in Manila bay, will become a curse the people of the United States. By the treaty of peace, Spain permitted, for a limited number vears, to enter all her products into the ports of those islands under the same terms and conditions as like products are entered from the United States. If by the acquisition of those islands free trade is 'established between them and the United States, then, during the period stipulated in the treaty of peace, Spain can have all her products entered into the jxrts of those islands free of any custom duty or other taxation. Under the favored nation clause, which is 'found in our treaties with England, France, Germany, Russia, and other European countries, if Spain's products are entered into the ports of those islands free of duty, the products of all these other countries are entitled to like privileges, and would also enter free of duty. From there they could be shipped to any of the ports of the United States as freely as iroods are shiptied from Ohio to JJew York. It will thus be seen that under this construction or the constitution all our custom laws can be annulled, and the United States made absolutely a free-trade coun try. For Sale, Seventy shares J. M.

HOWLING DERVISHES.

Strange Religions Rites Witnessed in Cairo. Correspondence Richmond Palbvtiom. ' Cairo. Ecrvpt, Feb. 23, 1900. When we arri ved at Cairo there was a throng. Probably two hundred of our number h id to be separated from us for transfer on up the Nile to Luxor. The other Szz were tiistnDu ted to hotels. My lot was cast at the Bristol, but not another ona of our party. The accommodations are excellent, and especially the cooking is certainly quite well ahead of the average American hotel. Forty of our company were brought to this place, and we are all seated at one long table and platters of food are passed by the waiters and each truest is to take for himself what he wants of it There are from five to seven courses. except breakfast has ODly bread, butter, coffee and eggs or meat and jam or marmalade. If any are behind at meals they are charged extra price. The effect is apparent and we are a prompt set of people. It was an interesting sight to witness the starting out for drives. The carnages here have only one elevated seat for driver and one for pas sengers. So that only two persons, or three by crowdins. may ride in one vehicle. It will readily be seen that to carry three hundred persons and to deliver them at the places ar ranged for is somewhat prodigious But , it was done successfully, although among the drivers and guides there was much jabbering of Arabic and Egyptian ana lurkish ana French and a mixture generally. I could here enumerate the places to which we were driven, but will do instead what will probably be of more interest. Amons the places visited by two of us was a mosque, where the howl ing dervishes went through their re ligious performance. When we entered we were given chairs at one side of the large circular room. In the central part was a carpet composed of five widths of straw matting, making it five yards wide and about ten yards long. The ceremony had already begun. The loader sat on bis feet at one end, and at the other were ten men sitting in a similar way, but others dropped in their places one by one until there were twenty-four, ranging in age, as I should think, from eight years to fifty. All were chanting in monotone and keeping time by moving the body back and forth from sitting posture to an almost horizontal position. After a time they stopped a little while, then there was responsive chanting by the leader and bis men, the motions being kept up as before. This gradually grew louder, of higher pitch, more rapid and violent and then ceased. A prophet now entered and repeated passages from the Koran in a ' heavenly tune" very similar to some I have heard elsewhere. Then followed a company of men, three of whom were t he dancing dervishes, and were dressed in white skirts falling about to tha ankles and girded at the waist and having a large hem at the bottom, filled with something, giving it an appearance of a roll of about two inches diameter, and used evidently to Weigh the skirt down while the dervish : rotates rapidly. Next was cCanTmg. iNow followed a motion throw ing the head and shoulders from side to side with a grunt umph -and ac companied by the flute music. This gradually became very rapid, and then changed into aspirate emissions astonishingly loud, and certainly ex haustive and producing dizziness, yet no such effects were perceptible upon the performers. The sound now changed to one that might be best indicated by "hoo-ah," turning the head from right to left and vice versa, with each vocal utterance of it. As before, this increased in rapidity, force and pitch till it seemed to die of its own extreme height. A few utterances by the leader were now followed by all rising from the sitting posfure, and standing repeating what I spell out as '"La-ah-ha-lee-la-mah," first vocally on the increasing scale as before, then in an aspirate sound. The prophet again repeated from the Koran in his whining nasal tune. Such actions and repetitions continued increasing in vigor with variations too many to describe in detail. After a time the music was accompanied by drums unlike ours, one of the dervishes advanced before the leader, bowed, threw his arms across each other upon his breast, the hands reaching his shoulders, moved his lips as in prayer, drew his hands downward over his face, and began slowly to turn round. The other two followed in a similar way, all the other men keeping up bodily motions as before, and the dervishes whirling in the center, the latter having on high brown caps of the moslem style. This action grew very rapid and vigorous, aud the dancers again took position with the rest and "Allah" was taken through the respective vocal and aspirate utterances as before. Then again the whirling motion of the dancers, and the bodily movements of the other twenty-one men were performed, keeping timoto the music, which increased its speed till all were going like the whirling shafts and vibrating movements of fciaohinery. But another thing now attracted our attention. ' We noticed that a glass lamp flue had been given to a man who stood in the center not far-from the whirling dervishes. I asked our guide, Mahomet Ali, what that meant. He replied that the man would eat it. Sure enough the man put the upper end in his mouth, crushed it off with his toeth and began chewing it and we could hear the cracking of the glass between his teeth. Again and again he bit off pieces, meanwhile keeping up his bodily motions in concert with the others. At the end of the ceremony the whirling dervishes did not seem Const! nation, Headache, biliousness, Heartburn, Indigestion, Dizziness, Indicate that your liver is cut of order.

fatigued as I had expected and so far as was apparent were none the worse for their vigorous exercise. But one ef the others began crawling slowly on his knees and swooned over into a trance. Another began revolving with great rapidity till he too fell in a trance. The others all advanced to the leader, kissed his hands and departed. An attendant remained and to each of the entranced men gave attention, rubbing them and reviving them from their trance, and they too departed. Our guide informed us that they had bad hearts and consciences and this was the method of getting rid of them. Ell wood O. Ellis.

A ERANDEI Retiator Hisas Kica to a Qn Ration of Priivleex. Washington. March 27. Senator Foraker, in charge of the Porto Rican bill, announced at yesterday's session of the eenate that beginning today he would press the measure to a vota aa noon as possible. Senator Hanna, chairman of the Republican national committee, speaking to a question of personal privilege, vlgirously denied an interview with a Republican member of the house of representative whose name was not given, published in a Washington newspaper alleging that the passage of the Porto Rican tariff bill would be in pursuance of a "deal" by which the Republican national committee was to get a big contribution.

An amendment was agreed to fixing a license upon almost every kind of trade and commerce in the district of Alaska, the licenses ranging from 10 to $00 per annum.

Chairman Hull, in charge of the bill, explained Its provision. Mr. Jett (Ills.) critized the policy of rwshing officers through the high grades of the army Just prior to retirement. Mr. Cox (Tenn.) and Mr. Rklgeley (Kan.) opposed generally a permanent Increase of the army as prejudicial to the best interests of the country and Mr. Meyer (La.) discussed the Philippine policy, opposing the retention of the islands.
