FAMOUS SEN
Peculiaritfes of Payne. Edmunds, !,
 Evarts, Logan and HOar.

Evarts, Logan and Hoar.
 From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.] Mr. Payne has taken lately to pedestrian ism in the Senate, and in that exercise now rivals MT. Ingalls,. Heretofore MT. Payne has confined himself to two attitudes and exercises He either sat down low in his chair, with his left elbow on the chair arm and his hand scooped over his ear as he lis- tened to brother Senator, or he sat with crossed legs, slowly pulling string through his fingers. This he did so often that it be- came a matter of remark that he must either carry string with him or keep one in his desk. Sometimes he varied the ex xercise with the string by taking one end in his teeth and running it down with the thumb and foreinger of each hand alternately. Now he takes to walking with his hands clasped behind him: He and Ingalls, walk back and forth, passing each other Tn the center of the lobby, as two criminals in a cage walk back and forth, their paths cross ing in the Senate until you get dizzy looking at them.
 While Mr. Payne walks there is slight falling of the mercury in the Senate ther- mometers, and MT. Edmunds enters. He goes straight to his seat, arranges some pa pers with mathematical exactness in the mid ale of his desk, and then sinks back in the attitude which is habitual with him his legs crossed, his chin sunk on his chest, his hands clasped and the balls of his thumbs pressed against each other. The top of the Senator's head is very red and he shows 8 tendency to drowsipess, which isn't to be wondered at considering that MT. Blair is making speech.
 The report comes from people very near to Mr Edmunds that he is not pleased with his relations to the Republican party, nor the position his course in the last campaign has put him in. The bitter opposition to him in Vermont by large number of the party in that State, and the harsh criticism from par ty organs and leaders throughout the coun- try, made him unhappy. It was a new ex- perience to him to hear anything but words of admiration and praise from Republicans, and it was disagreeable one. During the last session he was an extreme partisan on all party or political measures, and he ap- pears to be striving this session to outdo in this respect his record in the last. It is 8

race between him and Mir. Hoar as to who

race between him and Mir. Hoar as to who shall be the fercest party man. Now and then, when MT. Edmunds makes some par tieulariy fierce display of Republicanism, MT. Hoar will give fiirt or two to what the Democratic brethren are pleased to call the ''bloody shirt just to show that his flag is still there, and that he does not propose to be beaten in partyism by any cold -blooded Mugwump Republican from Vermont, be he never so penitent
 Mir. Evarts comes in like fossilized colo nial antique. I don't know what that is, but "dickey" and black stock. He drops his small thin figure into his chair, rests his sharp chin on his hand, turns his huge nose toward MT. Edmunds' seat and gazes upon the cold immobile countenance and closed eyes of the Vermont Senator.
 Presently the latter appears to become aware in his inner consciousness of the gaze of rival legal luminary, and begins passing his thumbs slowly over each other in the process called ''twiddling," ending in giving with his hands smart clasp and sending a page fo1 water.
 Evarts gazes across the seat of Logan who is at home in his house on Columbia Heights nursing his rheumatism, and probably now and then swearing little softly but fervent- ly.
 There is clump of presidential candi- dates-Hoar, Logan, Edmunds and Evarts. There have been times when the presidential skies looked fair for those. Each has thought sometime that he could almost read his title clear and has heard in his dreams the roar ing of great convention over his nomina- tion, the cheering of many thousands as he stood in the shadow of the great dome of the national Capitol to take the oath of of- fee.
 A good story was told about MT. Evarts' speech at the Merchants association dinner IaSf in 1v in strumental in securing his attendance, and beam of satisfaction lighted up the Horace Greelyan face of the Massachusetts Senator when Evarts rose to speak. But as the New Yorker went on attempting to straddle every public question Hoar's beam changed into flush of annoyance, and then a look of son. bre sadness; and when Evarts had finished Hoar turned to Senator Frye, who sat next to him, and heaving asigh, murmured, "Too bad! Too bad!''

December 29. 1886.
ssSH0KT HAun,,

President Chau Icey M. Depew of the New York Central railroad declares that if the Interstate commerce bill becomes law it will demoralize the business of the country and ruin the extreme Vest One of the principal causes of this assertion is the "short haul' provision of the bill.s This provision copies the original language of the Reagan bill, the principle being that no higher rate shall be charged for freight say from Chicago to Buffalo than from Chicago to New York, ssthe shorter being included within the longer distance''-that is, the short haul affected by the bill being in the same direction and toward the same point as the longer haul with which it is compared.
 How this short haul provision would work is well set forth by the Boston Advertiser, which says: If, then, the rate for the tsshort haul' is to be the same as for the long one it is evident that the equality must be reached, in part at least, by an increase in the cost of transporting the cereals of the West to the seaboard. This would seem to be the very legislation, therefore, which representatives of the agricultural communities of the West ought to oppose. Given certain price for GOTH III DOSbOQ OT TOT WQe8G III N0W I Ork, II is manifest that any increase in the cost of transportation must be taken out of the price paid the western farmer. To be sure the bill, as reported by the conference commit tee, provides that the commission may, on application of the railroads and after investi- gation, give relief from the operation of the rule in special cases. But this provision, to be of any practical valus, would necessitate the suspension of the 'fshort haul" clause much more frequently than it's enforcement.
 This is common sense. There are few rail- roads in the country which are in 8 condition to endure any decrease in their earnings, and there is little doubt that if compelled to do business under the Interstate commerce bill they would manage to s'eyen up" matters in such way-es not to snffer seriously. But somebody would have to suffer. The more the bill is looked at the less it appears to be the measure wanted.

"He was strenuous but generous foe, nor was there in all the land any man more faith ful than he to the friends he loved and to the those who more than twenty years ago con- fronted him in battle, there is no one among those who have opposed him in the later strifes of party warfare, who will not mourn his loss. He was indeed a manly man." And the Hartford Courant remarks: He was not a man to dodge or hesitate when once his judgment was made up, even when that judgment was at fault. His friends and his political opponents knew where to find him and they knew that no pressure of friend ship, no threats of enmity, no fears for loss of political advancement would influence him while his convictions were unchanged. The force of such an example in a prominent and popular politician is worth much at any time, and never worth more than now.
 Dealing in ssfutures is often very bad busi- ness, but it sometimes has it's advantages. The Boston Herald points out that by deal ing in ''futures' a man may be able to make his business much less speculative than it would otherwise be, and takes co tton mill for example. Now the price of raw cotton huctuates greatly, and it is often the case that 8 manufacturer cannot afford, in addi- tion to his other expenses, to buy all the raw material that he needs for an entire year. But by contracting for future deliveries, which is the same thing as dealing ill futures, he may be in position to know just what his raw cotton will cost him for eight or nine months in advance. He can, in this way, make his contracts to deliver cotton cloth with a certainty that one very important ele ment of uncertainty has been removed, an uncertainty that might make the carrying on of his business very much more precarious undertaking. The same comment holds good of the manufacturers of four, the refners of oil, and the users of other raw materials.

An AnAbsent-rIinded senator.

Washington Correspondence Boston Traveller l
 Senator Camden, of West Virginia, is probably the most absent minded man in public life Not long ago Senator Eustis, of Louisiana gave an elaborate dinner, to which Camden was invited. He accepted and went. A day or two afterward he hap pened to see the invitation upon his desk. Turning to his private secretary, he re- marked that he owed Eustis a most hum- ble apology for negleeting to reply, and said he intended to square himself without delay. The secretary looked up with an amused smile and said that he dind't see any great necessity for apologizing, state ment that at once arrested the Senator's attention Then the secretary quietly in- quired: Senator, why do you propose to apologize to MT. Eustis! Don't you re- member that you went to his dinner and came home and said that you had ele- gant times' After thinking for moment Camden did remember that he had been the guest of his colleague, and it is perhaps unnecessary to add that he didn't apologize.
 Another incident happened in the Senate chamber just before the opening of the ses- sion. The Senator was busy at his desk looking over his correspondence when gem tleman entered and shook him by the hand. Camden had puzzled look upon hls face, but he conversed with the visitor for some little time. When the gentleman left the Senator turned around and said to MT. Ken na, his colleague, tEJohn, who is that young fellowg' Kenna replied, "Great Scott, Cam den, that is the young lieutenant who is go- ing to marry your daughter next week" few evenings ago Camden thought he would go to the theater. As it was raining he borrowed an umbrella from his private sec- retary and marched down the street. When he returned his secretary astonished to see him come into the house dripping with rain and his new silk hat all but ruined. Camden had walked home in the storm without his umbrella simply because he had forgotten that he carried one to the thea ter The Senator knows his weakness, but he is apparently unable to cope successfully with
