Penitentiary Officers.

Senate bill aboIishing certain officers at
the penitentiary and increasing the pay OF
others came up in the Senate yesterday,
the pending question being on reconsider
ing the vote by which the Senate refused
to raise the pay of the guard from S45 TO
$50 per month.
Advocated by Mr.. Atkinson, Mr. Gaines,
and Mr.. Thurman.
Mr.. Mccormick said that he should op-
pose the increase OF the pay OF the guard
and of the higher officers also.
The bill was further argued by Messrs.
Gaines. Atkinson, LOvenstein, Thurman,
Bailey, and Powell.
1t was stated that while the penitentiary
guard were paid S45, the Capitol police
were paid sG5 per month.
The motion TO reconsider was rejected

On motion OF Mr.. Lovenstein the propo-
sition to increase the pay OF the clerk from
5000 10 1900 was abandoned.
Mr.. Bailey moved to strike out the pro-
position increasing the Assistant Superin-
tendent's pay from 5000 to 81, 200.
Mr.. Atkinson said that he should have to
vote Aye" He could not be party to
any such unjust discrimination. He want
ed to increase the pay OF all officers OF the
government, but he could not support
any measure which keeps the guard down
10 S45 and at the same time raises the sala-
ries Of higher officers.
MFR. Lovenstein was I'm favor of raising
the pay of the guard, but did not consider
this the place to do it. Another bill should
be framed for that.
The amendment OF Mr.. Bailey was agreed

THE DYNAMITE OUTR.IGES.
Europeans Reiying on an Awakening OF
AmerIcn's Sense OF Fair play.

Europeans ReHing on an Awakening OF
Americas Sense OF Fair PLAY.
A Paris special says: The position Oi sew
eral leading American newspapers on the
dynamite question has been cablcd to-Eu-
rope and widely quoted. 1t is warmly ap-
proved by public opinion, not only in Eng
land, butin France, Germany. Austria, and
Italy, as an indication that the jeopardy TO
which innOcent travellers are now exposed
is about 10 be put IN end 10 by the COM
mon sense and love of fair play OF the
American people. The feeling throughout
Europe is that the sale OF dynamite is on
exactly the same footing as the sale OF poi
sonous drugs, and that modern civilization
REQUIRES that il should be subjected 10
regulations and restrictions anal gous to
those concerning the sale OF pOiS0ns; that
the sale OF dynamite, like thGt OF strycE-
nine, should be confined to solely scientific
purposes.
Americans in Europe feel that this deluge
OF American dynamite is inconsistent with
their personal liberty. Americans may
take only an academic interest in the per-
sona safety OF the European crowned
heads, but the personal safety Of Amer-
can citizens should bring matters home.
Were some OF the numerous American
citizens. with their wives and children.
enjoying hard-earned European holiday.
blown to atoms at Charing Cross or the
Care du Nord, American legislation would
wake up to the necessity Of drastic mea-
sures and remove an intolerable nuisance
to the entire travelling community.
At more than one foreign office 1t is
limited that II the present status continues
no American will be allowed TO land in
Europe or pass from one European coun-
try TO another, unless provided with a
duly vised pass.
