EDMUNDS BLOCKS THE WAY.


The Vermont Senator Credited with Keep
ing the Secret Session in Existence.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 20.-There is a
good deal of quiet grumbling at the action of
the senate committee on foreign relations re-
speeding its report in favor demonstrating the
fisheries treaty in secret session, and perhaps
permitting the official report to be published.
Senators who favor open sessions for consid-
GRAFTON of executive business are very much
disappointed with the result.
A phase of the argument of those who are
dissatisfied with the custom of closing the
doors, and especially in this instance, is found
in the criticism of a gentleman who has given
the subject much thoughtful attention and
who said Thursday: AT the beginning of the
present session there was a very general pub
lie demand for open executive sessions, and
IA desire among senators to make some con-
cessions to popular sentiment so loudly ex-
pressed. The committee on rules entered
with many promises upon the task Of revis
ing the ironclad features of existing rules,
aud after much labor brought forth propo-
stion to 50 change the rules as TO permit a
ma jority to govern in the matter of consider
ing treaties in secret session or open session.
This was brought in during the absence Of
Senator Edmunds, and was adopted by the
senate without discussion or division. II
paved the way, as IL was deSlGheu 70 no. lui
the Riddleberger resolution to consider the
fisheries treaty in open session, but before the
resolution had made its appearance Senator
Edmunds had returned Though the amended
rules remain no exercise Of the privilege con-
ferred by the majority upon itself has taken
place
Mr.. Edmund's power Of dominating the
senate and prescribing its course in defiance
OF public sentiment is to me one of the most
striking rhenomena of current legislative pro-
cedure. The administration asks that the
fisheries treaty be discussed publicly, and
openly avows the belief that the more it is
talked about the better it will stand with the
people. A majority of senator's, if left to their
own Judgment, would unquestionably favor
publicity, not only because of the executive
wish, but on the higher grounds of recognize
Ing public opinion Senator Edmunds sayd

UYDRoPHoBIA has been recognized for
ages, and throughout all these ages has
detled medical skill The first known
mention of it was in the manuscript OF a
Hindoo physician, Susruta, who lived
nine or ten centuries before Christ. His
account of it and the treatment recon-
mended--sacrificati all that
is known today upon the subject unless
the findings of Pasteur are entitled to
credence. Mention of hydrOphobia was
frequent after the beginning of the Chris
tian era, Aristotle, Ovid and Pliny al
luded to it. In the day of Nero it was
observed ami treated. According to Plu.
tarch, in the time of Pompey the Great,
it was seen in human beings, and the
distinction, still maintained by some au-
thorities, between rabies and hydrophobia
began to be made. C@lius Aurelianus in
the reign of Trajan gave detailed ac~
count of the disease and the controver-
sizes which had arisen concerning it. He
told of a seamstress who, in tearing with
her teeth a garment worn by patient, acN
quired hydrophobia and died. Then, as
now, hydroph obia acquired by inocula-
ton was regarded as necessarily fatal,
but it had also been proved that many
bitten by rabid dogs escaped any special
inconvenience. Among the Arabs also
the disease was known Rhazes told of
the barking symptom, which is simply a.
spasmodic cough, and of the fear Of
water. generally present when the SUBJ
ject is human and somestimes utterly
wanting in the lower animals. Later,
hydrophobia was freely discussed by
European writers. The Laws of How
ell, the Good, tell of general outbreak of
rabies, occurring in 1926. From that
time it was recognized in England
Upon the continent it remained obscure |
until the thirteenth century, when thirty |
shepherds IN Germany fell victims 10 it.
1t appeared near Boston in 1868: in the |
French West Indies in 1875. In
1885 it was alarmingly prevalent in the
United States again, but in South Amer.
lea was unknown until 1903.

DIsGRAcEFUL AND DAsTARDLY.


NASHVILLE, Tenn, April 20.-A horrible
killing and hanging took place near Gallatin,
Tenn, Thursday night Isaac Kirkpatrick
and his wife Puss, both colored were taken
from their cabin, about five miles from Gal
latin by a mob and the woman was hung
and the man shot through tie brain ut the
same time. Since John Kereys country res
idence was burned to the ground with tho en-.
tire contents suspicion has pointed to Puss
kirkpatrick as the perpetrator of the deed
However, this was only suspicion. kirkpat-
rick was not suspected of having taking any
part in the burning 1t is thought by many
that when the mob visited Kirkpatrick's
cabin he recognized some of the party, and
they killed him because of fear that they
would be exposed.
The woman was discovered hanging in her
night clothes by Jim McCullock, who brought
the news to Gallatin. Near the tree where
Puss was hanging lay the body of her hus-
band, lifeleSs. Both of them were brought TO
Gallatin Thursday evening, where they We're
received by hundreds of negroes. Upon all
sides the deed is condemned by all law-aLid-

THE law of strik es. as oxpounded by
Judge Love, of the United States dis
trict court for the southern district of
Iowa, is thus epitomized by the New
York Herald:
/. Railroad employees have right to
quit work.
2. But they have no right to prevent
others from taking their places, nor to
interfere with the operation of the road.
g. A railroad company must haul the
freight of every other company on equal
terms.
A. 1t is no excuse for the company to
say that its employees will not handle the
cars of a road on which there is strike.
5. Such company must obey the law
of the land, not the order of the brother
hood of engineers.
8. If it refuses the traffic of another
road it may be ordered to carry by the
courts, and, moreover, is liable to suits
for damages at the hands of shippers.
Judge Loves rulings are strictly in &C
cordance with common sense, as well as
with the law of the land.
