NJ Pasteur expresses himself to a representa-
five of THE TRIBUNE as not at all discouraged
nv the fact that three Russians whom he has
been treating have died Of hydrOphobia They
had suffered more bites, he says, than his dog
bitten patients, and the intensity of the poison
of q mad wolf which is commonly made mad
BY the bite of aaother wolf. Is greater than that
of dog, which goes mad entirely on its own
account. Moreover. NJ Pasteur is sure that he
did not kill the Russians by his treatment. What
he saws Oh these and other points would be
more impressive if he could support his asser~
lions by reference to records kept by himself
with scientific correctness and care.
The priest who shot the Bishop of Madrid
performed his work much more calmly and ef-
fectively than assassins In public places usu-
ally do. Moreover, the crowd seems to have

tors in this tragedy are Roman Catholics. No
political significance can be attached TO the
act, and no faction can take advantage OF 1t to

The Democratic Labor Men in the Con
necticut Legislature have shown how insincere
their boosted regard for the working classes
is The Republicans in the Senate passed three
bills which would have been most beneficial to
the laboIing man-one fixing sixty hours a
week as the limit of work for women and chill
dren another compelling the payment of
eighty per cent of the employees wages at his
request weekly and a third excepting 500
from attachment. Rather than that the Re-
pubiicans should get credit for this legislation
the Democrats i'll the House refused to pass the
measures, expressing dissatisfaction with the
method proposed for the enforcement OF the
laws. This was too open a move for party ad-
vantage. The Connecticut voters see it al

the political capital flowing from this effort
