Scenes From the Silent World.

Behind prison bars there is life little
known, full of curious phases of character,
strange moods and fancies. the results. not
of Imprisonment by itself considered, but
of long continued falling among abnor
NAL condtions-the dependency of hope
@lessness. Most of those with inclination
and the time to study convict life have
lacked the opportunity. Their visits to a
state prison have been under the guidance
of officials, before whom all is made spick-
span. On parade is the order of the day;

their wont. AS we'll 90 duckng with a

Brazil was discovered in 1900 by Pedro
Alvarez Cabral. Portuguese navigator,
and for three hundred years it was held by
Portugal as colony. During the seven
teenth century the country was frequently
attacked by the Dutch. and several impor-
tant settlements in it captured; but they
were finally expelled by the Portuguese in
1854.
The discovery of gold and diamonds,
about the beginning of the eighteenth cent
ury. added materially to the wealth of the
country. though agriculture has always
been the staple industry. The cultivation
of coffee was introduced in 1850. and has
since become one of it's leading articles of
export.
In 1907, Napoleon took Portugal. and de-
clared that ''the house of Braganza" had

IN THE SOUP.

j. b. SMILEY.
From the pre-h store ages.
And from many modern Sages
Comes Il troupe
OF slang phrases. and the grea;est
Is that freshest one. and latest.
I'm the soup
People are not beat or taAled
Never are disturbed or ruffled.
None will stoop
To remark they're blue or lonely.
Or discouraged,-theya are only
'In the SOUP"
No one nowadays gets the mitten,
No fond lover being smitten,
Is the dupe
OF false smiles that cost him dearly.
Such a man as that is merely
''ln the soup
There is now no business ia ling.
Like there used to be prevailing.
They don't whoop
That bankruptcy is CALLING;
They remark the man is failing
I'm the soup
If this drizzly rain keeps falling
With persistence quite appalling
Well all droop,
And will swim, not with the winners,
But where Noah left the sinners
I'm the SOUP"

From Wall Street To-day.

NEW YORK, July 10, IL am.-The general
stock market this morning seemed to have got
ten over its scare of yesterday, there being no
pressure to sell, and quiet business was done
at higher range of values. First prices were
from ia to q per cent higher than last even
ings closing figures, and in many stocks this
advantage was further increased by slight
fractions. though most of the list yielded
slightly, the fluctuations being small and I'M
important and the dealings unaccompanied by
special feature beyond the moderate animation
in few stocks such st. Paul, Atchison,
Louisville and Nashville, and Rock Island.
The trusts, however, were still excited. though

regular list. quiet with small fluctuations. and

II per cent at 5624 and quickly dropped to
112, rallying to 80. Lead opened down Is at

strength. moving up 81, but then gave way
and dropped to %. but recovered portion of

and declined to los, but afterward recovered
the entire loss. American cattle trust sold at
141S against 16 yesterday. Lead was extremely
active, but there were few 1000 share lots sold.
and the aggregate Of the transactions was not
so large as during the corresponding time yes
terday. The recovery in trusts was accom-
panied by firmer tone in the regular list, and

list remained dull after ii O'clock though there
was firm tone and some slight improvements
in values, but no special feature marked the
trading. The trusts were more quiet but dis
played marked strength, and sugar led off in

the stocks of the regular list showed more ami

Allow Freight Rate Decision.

Dies MONIES, Iowa, July 13.-On April 10,
1899. the Diamond Joe line filed a complaint
with the Iowa railroad commissioners. charging
that the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy rail-
road company was discriminating by refusing
TO receive freight consigned to points on the
line of respondents road unless the freight
charges on snch consignments were prepaid
The commissioners yesterday rendered their
decision. They are of opinion that the receiv-
ing OF freight by the respondent from carriers
generally for delivery to points on its
line without exacting the payment
of charges and the refusal to extend the same
privileges to complainant 10 a preference and
o discrimination forbidden by law, and the
railway company is informed that in extend
ing privileges and facilities all carriers must be
treated alike. The effect of this decision will
be to give St. Louis low rates with Iowa, since
shippers can use the river to Keokuk, Burling-
ton. Davenport or any river town and then
frish the trip by rail. Chicago will have to
meet the st. Louis rate, and thus interstate
rates will indirectly be reduced, so that all
lows cities will profit more or less by the
change.

Morris Walsh Tells Some Things about
the Cronin Case.

SAN Francisco, July 1a-Morris Walsh, who
is thought to be suspect simonds, whose pho
tograph was given by Luke Dillon to the Chi
cago police as one of the Cronin conspirators,
and who arrived on the steamer Acapulco yes
terday from Panama, has admitted his associa-
ton for three years with Luke Dillon in Eu-
rope, and said he was in Madrid with Dillon
when Pigott came to his death. He proved he
was here when Cronin was removed but he
lay over in this city from May 20 to May %,
probably to learn the results of the Cronin at
tempt. He has been working as sailor on the
Pacific mail steamer since last March. He
claims to have known all about the Cronin case
and says it was devised by Dillon and two other
men as warning to British spies. He darkly
hints that Cronon is alive and will appear when
it is safe for him to do so.

SOLDIERS FOR POLICEMEN.
Gems. Kelton and Schofield Do Not
Agree About Their Discharge.

There is controversy between Adjutant
General Kelton and Gen. Schofield over a
matter of considerable local interest The
law requires that only honorably discharged
soldiers and sailors shall be appointed to the
Metropolitan police force. This restriction
makes it difficult to get suitable men for the
force at all times, and several unsuccessful at
tempts have been made to have the law re-
pealed. Last Congress made provision for a
considerable increase of the police force, and
on the LIST of July the money became available.
To overcome the difficulty in the way of get
ting good men Major Moore struck the idea of
selecting a number of desirable men from the
third artillery, stationed here, whose terms
OF enlistment were pretty nearly up, and
to arrange for their discharge so that they
might be appointed to the police force. He
saw Adjutant General Kelton about the matter
In the interest of the city and partly. perhaps,
as means of reward for good service TO those
who might be selected, General Kelton agreed
to the plan, with the understanding that those
chosen should have served long enough to pre-
clude the idea of their having enlisted merely
as means of getting on the police force and
that their records in every instance should be
such to make them deserving. Twelve
privates of the third artillery were selected by
Major Moore and their discharges asked for
Adjutant General Kelton approved the applica-
ton, but the discharges did not come. General
Schofeld did not approve of the action. and, il
is understood, claimed that General Kelton had
exceeded his authority in the matter 1t is
said that General Kelton insists upon the dis
charges, and that the matter will be brought to
the attention of the Secretary Of War on his
return.
WHAT COL. MOORE SAYS.
Col. Moore said to-day that the request for
the discharge of dozen or so of the soldiers
of the third artillery has been partially COM
piled with by the discharge of eight and that
three others may be discharged, as their cases
are under consideration.
