The 81. Louis authorities announce that
twenty thousand destitute persons are night
" cared for in the station houses Of that
city, and hat eight thousand are dependent
on a system Of daily ~ratiOns. Twenty shOus-
and workmen are out Of employment in the
city, and the problem Of how to feed and
clothe this daily increasing multitude is
causing serious concern. Many plans for
raising . fund to relieve the distress are be-
ing c~Onsiasrel BY the charitable O~rgsaizs-
tons. one Of them being the collection Of
SIS from the property holders Of every
block. the money to be used in giving the

Is at least a possibility that we should g.

each new tariff bill for many years.

serted one OF Mr.. Resgau's most earnest
opponents in the House. '"Its defeat is
foregone conclusion and even fit were to
pass the Senate, President Arthur would
never sign it"
"The5House wa anxious to stand we'll be-
fore the people when the demand is a very
strong one for q law Of this description, re-
marked a member who has held a neutral
position and who lodged the vote on the il
sue as presented. But if the members had
really believed that their action would deter
mine the fate Of the proposed law many Of
them would have voted differently"
The sentiment Of politicians here, is
unanimous on only one point with regard to
the Regain bill and that is, the impossibility
of passing it through the Senate. AS above
intimated there is a greet difference Of OPP
pinion as to the attitude which would be
assumed by the Arthur administration on the
question Of railroad VS.. granger interests.
II is only fair to the President, however. to
say that all his warmest friends unite in as.
serting that he would sign the bill if it were
to come before him. Certainly this asser
ton is justified so far as as it can be BY the
record Of President Arthur, for no one can
accuse him of ever having been owned by
any corporation or any set Of corporations
in the course Of his career as q public man.
