about an equal advance in the price OF fresh

THE REPUBLICAN Congress has been In
session nearly ten months. What good 1t
has done the country no mortal can tell but
the evil it has worked has been immense.
Patent ssmples of the latter are the impend-
ing monetary panic, and the determination
of the administration, as means OF STAYING
off that panic, not only to pay the rich bond
holders high premium for some OF their
bonds, but to advance the payment of undue
interest on Others And thus it is that the
rich grow sicher at the expense OF the poor.

al Hayman Said to be at the Head of a
Big Scheme.
New YORK, April S.-For some time
efforts have been made in this city and
the West to form a gigantic theatrical
trust, which will take in at least one OF
the principal theaters in each of the big
cities throughout the country. The
trust is said to have taken in two theaters
in San Francisco and one each in Chi
cago, Omaha, Kansas City, Los An
geles, Seattle and Tacoma. The
trust was further strengthened yes
terday upon the arrival of Peter Nc
Cort in the city. McCort is manager
of the Taber opera house in Denver, and
the opera houses in Leadville, Salt Lake
and Pueblo. These houses McCort
placed, after conference with Charles
Frohman, in the chain being formed by
the trust. AL Hayman, the California
manager, now in London, where he is
to open booking Office so that English
managers can readily secure time for
attractions in this country, is at the head
of the trust. The trust is said to be at
work in this city, Boston and Philadel.
phia, and hopes to be represented in all
these places before many weeks.

PUTS AND CALLS.
BUTTERWORTH'S BILL FOR RE-
STRICTING GAMBLING.
The Bill Amended and Favorably Re-
ported to the House-Dealers in Fic-
titious Values to Be Heavily Taxed.

WASHINGTON, April S.-The House COM
mittee on agriculture today reported to
the House, with amendments, the But
terworth bill to define options and
futures, and impose special tax upon
dealers therein, etc. An elaborate re-
port was also sobmitted. In it the COM
mittee says: The bill in terms does and
is intended to apply to that class of
transactions conducted in the 'bucket-
shops" and grain pits of the country,
known as puts" and "calls," in
Guiding the whole range Of
mere speculative gambling in fictitious
farm products. 1t does not affect in
juriously any legitimate trader or dealer
in farm stables. 1t seeks to, and does,
impose an internal revenue tax upon
those dealers i'll grain, cotton and pork
who as a rule never see own or handle a
peck or pound of the articles they deal
in. 1t applies to dealers whose transac-
tions have the least possible reference to
supply, and still less reference to de-
mand for consumption, and yet who sell
in the "buclSet shops" of the United
States every month more wheat than is
grown in the whole world in year.
1t is urged, says the committee, that
the influence of this bill will greatly
hamper and restrict trade, but so far
from the proposed measure affecting
trade, the exact reverse is true.
The committee has no doubt of the
constitutionality of the measure. 1t
added an amendment to section 2 of the
original bill, providing that the act shall
,lxy 10 &c re
for the future delivery of any of said
articles made with the United States, or
with any State or county, or with duly
authorized officers or agents thereof; nor
to contracts or agreements made by
farmers for the sale and delivery of any
articles aforesaid, which are in the actual
course of production by such farmers at
the time of making such contract or
agreement

Some Information.

Some Information.
WASHINGTON, April Sin response to
the Senate resolution calling upon Sec
retary Window for a statement OF the
number of arrivals and departures of
Chinese at San Francisco annually since
August 2, 1882, and any information re-
specting the evasions of the law for the
exclusion of Chinese laborers, the Sec
retary today transmitted tabulated
statement giving the desired informa-
ton.
The annual arrivals range from II 900
to $4,000; departures, ll,000 to 10000.
After the passage of the act S36
arrived and 1862 departed. OF
Gil persons who arrived during
the six months ended December 81,
1889, twelve were actors, two clerks, one
cook, ten druggists, three physicians,
ten shoemakers, forty-seven students
and 24l with no occupation. OF these
% were females.
Secretary Window says in respect to
evasions of the law for the exclusion OF
Chinese laborers: Violations appear to
consist mainly in the use of fraudulent
certificates and the smuggling across the
northern frontier of laborers.
The Secretary of the Treasury has au-
thorized the collector at San Diego, CAL,
to employ an additional force to assist
him in preventing the smuggling OF
Chinese laborers ovey the Mexican bor
der This action is based upon tele-
graphic report from the collector regard
