FINANCIAL LEGISLATION.

Sherman's financial relief bill was made
the subject of a proposed amendment YES
terday, providing for the issue of $500 .OOO,-
900 Of temporary bonds, redeemahle after
July l, 1891. If this amendment is in
tended as a rider to ride the bill to death its
author makes very good calculation.
The avowed purpose of the bill is to secure
immediate relief from the existing strin-
geney by letting money ont into the chan
nels OF trade. The alleged necessity for it is
that the Government has no outstanding
bonds which it can call in and pay out
money in return. Yet this amendment pro-
poses an issue of bonds, the sale of which
would withdraw money from trade channels
and tie it up in the Treasury until the bonds
were called in again.
Some Senators have very queer ideas of
finance, but in this case the amendment
must be looked upon as a rider intended to
deleat the original bill. From present ap-
pearances there may be so much delay in
reaching the whole matter that the finances
OF the country will come right from inher-
ent powers and render legislative interfer-
ence wholly unnecessary. 1t will probably
be fortunate if this is the case. There is too
much tendency toward legislative tinkering
with the business interests OF the country at
all times.

A Locke of Many Combinations.

THE stories that are told of Impressario
Locke's ability to get out of as well as to get
into financial holes are simply amazing. Man.
ager Wilt does not overstate Locke's ability to
raise money OF to turn deficit into a surplus
when he says that he has known Locke to come
out ahead after dropping 100000. All the same
Locke has now some factors to deal with that
he has not had before. He has been denounced
very freely by the press in the East the
dramatic papers, the Mirror and Netos par
ticularly demanding that his name shall be
erased finally from the list of reputable mana
gers. This. coupled with attachment of the
Nero" effects by Mr.. Gilmore, in New York,
makes knot that even the skillful Locke will
hnd it hard to unite. Manager Wilt processes
to be perfectly comfortable about the little bag
of Doodle which he inJrusted to Mr.. Locke at
midnight two weeks ago, but from the fact
that his brother managers are expressing a
fine article Of sympathy for him on all SIDES,
would lead one to believe that the chances of
that 81, 500 figuring to Mr.. Willis credit again
are rather slim. The rejoicing OF certain hotel
people and others who insisted on getting cash
from the greet financier Is one of the merriest
features of the joyous season.

Where the Snow Sticks.

THE snow had almost disappeared. in the city
Yesterday, but it still fingered in the
suburbs to the depth of several inches, while
among the hills the snow is likely to stay until
spring Perhaps it will surprise the dweller in
the city to know that there was yesterday snow
within ten miles OF Pittsburg deep enough to
bury good-sized child. A country doctor
who had occasion to drive out yesterday
through the narrow valleys which lie back of
Sewickley had very unpleasant experience.
He was driving team OF horses to a cutter,
and making very fair progress when he came
upon narrow valley where the snow looked
invitingly smooth and white. In another
minute the horses were plunging in snow up to
their bellies, and the sleigh began to sink in
the soft snow. The horses could not get through
1t and the doctor had to unhitch them, and
with farmers help drag the sleigh over the
drift after the horses. The snow for a distance
of fifty feet was over four feet deep. And this
when the last vestige of snow had disappeared
from the city streets 4S hours before. If the
cold wave which arrived in town yesterday
afternoon does not wind up with more snow all
the rural soothsayers in Allegheny county will
be disappointed. Wherever you go in the
country you will hear prophecies of big snow
fall between Christmas and New Years.

THE TOPICAL TALKER.
Doesn't Pay to be Small.


SMALL people get the worst of it in every
way the short man especially. He has to
pay the same price for his clothes as the tall
man, and when he dies the undertaken will
make no allowance on account of size The
short umbrella costs as much as the long one;
walking canes are not sold according to length,
and II you have small feet you will find that
the shoemaker will rather add to his prices
than reduce them on that account. The small
man occupies less room IN the cars, but he pays
the same fare as his big brother. Small heads
cost as much to cover, small chins cost as much
to shave, as big ones If man goes in for
short life and a merry one here he will prob
ably be taxed extra for 1t elsewhere. Brevity may
be the soul of wit, small packages may be best,
the shorts may sometimes have the best of the
market, but, as rule, the tide of life sets
against small men.
Yesterday cigar dealer astonshed me with
another evidence of the discrimination against
the shorts l had suggested that a smaller
cigar OF the same brand. as a matter of course,
would be OF finer quality.
mot at all, said he ''the fact that it is more
troublesome to roll a small cigar than large
one often induces the manufacturer to pay for
the extra labor by detracting from the quality
OF the filler. This is not always the case but
often enough to make the superiority of the
small cigar polite fiction which some dealers
are fond of using"

A MORMON wIFEs STATUS.
Important Decision by the Supreme Court
in a Polygamy Case.

Important decision Dy tne supreme court
in Polygamy Case.
WASHINGTON Dec. 23.-The Supreme Court
of the United States to-day rendered an inn
portant decision in Mormon polygamy case,
holding that wife is not competent witness
against the husband where polygamy is the
CRIME charged. William E. Bassett was in 1886
found guilty of polygamy on the testimony of
his first wife, from whom he had been divorced
after he took a second wife The former w1fe's
testimony was the only evidence produced, and
it was upon her testimony that Bassett's con-
viction was secured. He took an appeal to the
Supreme Court of Utah, contendIng that the
wife's testimony was moi. properly admissible,
and when the Territorial Court decided against
him brought the case here. The court reverses
the decision of the Territorial court, and holds
that the wife was an incompetent witness. In
its opinion, prepared by Justice Brewer, the
Court says: "The question presented is not
how much she (the wife) feels or suffers (by
reason of the plural marriage), but whether the
crime is one against her. Polygamy and
adultery may be crimes which involve dsloy-.
atty to the marital relation, but they are rather
crimes against such relation than against the
wife; and as the statute (the Edmunds-Tucker
Anti.P .Polygamy Act) under which the man was
tried, speaks of crimes against her, it is simply
an affirmation of the old common law rule,
that wife cannot testify against the husband.
The case was remanded to the Utah courts,
with directions to grant new trial."
