New Inter .s.... comm.re. Bill.

Senator COLON, OF Illinois, from select
committee, has reported to the senate a
bill for the regulation Of interstate com.
merce, the same being accompanied by an
exhaustive report in which the whole qucs-
tion is carefully considered. The public
interest, says the report, demands that
questions Of dispute between shippers and
ter for settlement. The following is an
abstract Of the bill as reported:
Alter specifying the classes Of carriers, OF
rather the kinds OF traffic, to which the
regulations prescribed are to apply and de-
clarinG that all changes made by such car
riers shall be reasonable, the preliminary
sections aim to prohibit every variety II
unjust discrimination, to prescribe ade-
quate penalties therefor, and to prescribe
for enforcement in the courts Of the United
States. These sections includeth require
ment that all carriers shall afford rens0n-
able facilities for the interchange OF traffic
with connecting lines, and the prohibition
OF q greater charge for q shorter than for a
longer distance, except when it be affirma-
lively established by the carrier that such
charge does not constitute an unjust dis.
elimination. Such common carrier may.
however. in special cases he authorized by
the commission to charge less for longer
thanior shorter distances for the transpor-

er section requires allcarriers sub ject to the
provisions Of the proposed act to file their
tariffs and classifcations with the inter-
state commerce commission, and provides
that they shall be posted or otherwise pub.
lished, but leaves to be determined by the
commission the manner Of publication and

Elevator Stories.

The elevator man of the Washington
Monument recently told the following
stories: ''Onn day when was coming
down an empty barrel fell from the top
landing. l heard the Cry from above.
and knew that something was coming
l directed my passengers to crowd into
the middle. where the elevator was
most protected from above, and when
the barrel struck the top nobody said a
word. There were several ladies'
aboard. but they didn't seem Il bit
frightened. At another time. when the
elevator was at the top and the men
were unloading a stone, Il crowbar was
twisted from the hands of the man who
was using it aud dropped down the
well. We gave the signal and when the
bar reached bottom there was nobody
there to catch it. 1t went down like
shot, and plummct could not have
swung straighter. 1t went clear through
the platform Mt the base, and made II
hole about six inches deep in the asphalt
at the foundation. Once an iron sleeve
weighing seventy or eighty pounds fell
while the elevator was at the top. A
cry of warning cleared out those at the
bottom of the we'll, and it struck OH a
board upon which some passengers had
been standing only few moments be-
fore. Only two men were hurt during
the entire time that the monument was
being built. In going down stcp-lad-
der in the dark at the landing, near the
top, one of the workingmcn missed his
footing and fell to the landing, only a
few feet, breaking his arm. 1t was a
curious accident, for the man was per-
fectly familiar with all the surround
ings. At another time the hand-railing
at one of the landings gave way with i.
man who was standing upon it fixing
the electric lights. Fortunately he fell
the right way, and landed on the plat
form. the result being only sprain.
Had he gone down the well death would
have been certain, for he was at a
height of 200 feet. l don't believe
there was ever structure built calling
for such dangerous work with such an
unintcrcsting chapter of accidents. Ev-
erybody connected with the work knew
just how things were being done and
what care was being taken by those in
charge, and that if orders were obeycd
everything would be all right. have
run the elevator when the key stone
was suspended directly over me. Had it
fallen it would have been the end of me
and the monument too. had no fear,
however, for knew it couldn' fall;
there were too many safeguards, and
the men were too careful. " -Washing-

You Should Think.


One Of the most idiotic practical jokes
indul gcd in by persons carrying light
weight brains is loa'ling a cigar or pipe
with powder for some victim to endan-
ger his eyesight. 1t is on a par with
suddenly drawing away a chair upon
which somebody is about to sit. then
laughing at the party's discontinue.
Sometimes the laugh is on the wrong
side of the mouth, when the victim hur-
ricdly proceeds to put the joker's eye in
mourning, or tap him forcibly on the
proboscis, and serve him right. Harm
less jokes are excellent, but anything
that may disfigure or cripple anybody
for life should not be indulged in. II
didn't Think is not a good excuse. You
should think. -Pcck's Sun.

The supreme court Of the United States
rendered an important decision bearing up.
on the question Of interstate commerce,
and particularly interesting a. II deals with
the right OF state to interfere with the
sale Of liquor within its borders by citizens
Of other states. The court holds the broad
proposition that NO state has the right
product Of other states, even though such
discrimination b based ON the exercise Of
the police power, and designed to preserve
the health and morals Of the people. Tho
syllabus OF the decision 10 a. follows:
No. TAI. Samuel A. Walling against the
people oi the state Michigan. InJune, 1883,
Walling was prosecuted in the police court
Of Grand Rapids, Mich, under state law
imposing tax on persons engaged in the
business Of selling aquor in that state to
be shipped from any other state. He was
drummer for the firm Of Cavanagh 4
Co. Of Chicago, and he was charged in ono
court with selling liquor at Wholesale with.
out license, and in another with selling
and taking orders for its sale without a
license. He was convicted and sentenced
to pay = fine, and was imprisoned in de.
fault Of payment. He appealed to the
county circuit court, in which the case was
tried @ BY Jury, and found guilty.
prems court Of Michigan, which de.
decided against Wallins. The question in
the case 10 whether the statute under which
Walling was prosecuted 10 rcpugnant to the
constitution Of the United States. This
court held Judge Bradley delivering the
opinton) that q discriminating tax i'm.
posed by . state operating to the disad.
vantass OF the products Of other states
when introduced into the first mentioned
state 70 In effect . regulation in restraint of
commerce among tho states, and as such
Y usurpation Of the power conferred by
the constitution upon the congress OF the
United States. The supreme court OF
Michigan held that the tax imposed by the
act 70 An exercise Of the police power Of
the state for the encouragement Of the use
OF Intoxicating liquors and the pres
ervation Of the health and morals OF
tho people. The supreme court of the
United States holds that this would be q
perfect justification Of tho act II it did not
discriminate against the citizens and prod.
ucts OF other states and thus usurp one of
the prerOgatives Of the national legisla-
ture. The court concludes: 1--WE think
the act in question operates ns regula-
tion OF commerce among the states in a
matter within the exclusive power Of con-
gress, and that it is for this reason repug-
nant to the constitution OF the United
States. and void. The judgment OF the
supreme court OF Michigan is reversed and
the case remanded, with instructions to
take such further proceedings as may not
be inconsistent with this opinion" The
decision applies to every state and terri
tory and the drummers will no longer be
compelled to pay license in other states
than thossin which they live.
