of public lands and the bill to enlarge lel-
lowstone Park failed to be acted upon in the
House. The most important bill the Senate
failed to act upon was the Federal Election
Bill. Under the rules of the Senate the
Tariff Bill might have been talked to death
if some agreement had not been entered into
with the opposition. The International
Copyright Bill passed the Senate and failed
in the House. The bill was in the interest of
book publishers, rather than of authors who
are not also publishers. a bill to compensate
authors for the use of their works in for

was not weighted down with provision

the HEBREW ORPHAN ASYLUM.

The report of Mr.. S. w. Levy, President
of the Pacific Hebrew Orphan Asylum and
Home Society, tells pleasant story of
most worthy institution. 1t was founded
eighteen years ago with the double purpose
OF providing a home and a school for or
phanS of the Jewish persuasion, and of
erecting a home for aged and infm Israel
ties, like the one which Mrs. Croker has
endowed. 1t has faithfully fulfilled the
former purpose, has sheltered and educated
Il number OF orphans, and has accumul ted
fund which now amounts to S222,l24 S57,-
240 of which has been set apart to erect the
Home for OLD People, which will stand on
the societys lot on the corner of Silver ave-
nue. and Mission road. The plans for the
building have been drawn, and contracts
will shortly be given out.
Ninety-seven children are now housed in
the asylum, fed, clothed. educated and
trained to physical exercise in well-ap-
pointed gymnasium. When the children
reach suitable age they are taught manual
trades, so that each snail be sef-supporting
The money expended is derived from the
annual subscriptions of members, of whom
there are 1912, paying Sc each, and from
donations, requests and interest on money

smallness of his list of members, and says
thatit1s diSpropOrtiOnate to the large and in
creasing Jewish population of the coast.
He urges upon his co-religionists the duty Of
coming to the aid Of the society. Some of
the nObleSt charities in the world have been
founded and are administered by Hebrews.
The best ophthalmic hospital in New York
was established by these people, and is now
chiefly directed by Mr.. Jesse Seligman. the
banker, formerly of San Francisco. When
patient applies for admission no question
is asked As to his religion; if his eyes need
treatment he gets it, whatever church he
goes to. On the same broad catholic lines
some OF the most useful Hebrew charities
in London and Paris are conducted. There
is this to be said in favor of sectaran dis
tinctions, that they stimulate eudeavor and
promote healthy rivalry. But in the ad-
mnistraTion Of charities, sect cuts but a
small figure. 1t is perhaps well that each
denomination should try to Guido its rivals
in the muniicence of its benevolence but
inside the walls of homes for the orphan,
the sick. the aged or the infirm, it should be
enough 10 know that the applicant for help
is q member of the human race.

WHOSE BABY Is IT?
A Wretched State of Affairs Found in u

Nretched State OF Affairs Found in n
Lodging House.
Mary Scadd. a wretched woman addicted TO
the excessive use of liquor, was dragged
from her room yesterday in the lodging
house at 313 Fourth street by the officers of
the Society for the Suppression of Cruelty to
Children, who tell strange and almost in
credible story about her.
About three weeks ago she and a man. who
may be her husband, engaged Room %
at the house where she was arrested
and at once entered OF a protracted spree
The woman had baby, which she said was
her own. 1t was left on the bed to live or
die, and the wonder is how it lived as long
as il did.
When Officer Holbrook entered the apart
ment yesterday he was repealed by the in
sutferable stencil arising from filth of all
kinds which covered the floor, furniture,
bedding and even the woman and child.
Mrs. Sradd was still intoxicated. She had
been in such condition for three weeks
The man, sober for the first time during the
debauch, had left the house, but the child
was in piliable state Of filth and neglect.
" got the baby from the founding asylum
on Golden Gate avenue, near Octavia street"
said the woman, twelve hours after it
was born; IL is not mine and L have minded
it since"
The baby is not four weeks old yet.
At the City Prison the woman changed her
story, claiming that the baby was hers. and
SObbed and mOaned pitiously when it was
taken from her to be placed in an institution
for infants.

FAILED IN DIPLOMATIC TACT.

The New York Herdld'S Washington cor
respondent claims o have heard a rumor in
welLinformed circles that President Harri-
son and Secretary Blaine consider Minister
Miner to have failed in diplomatic tact in
the Barrundia case. In this case the Wash
ington correspondent simply supports the
editorial position Of the paper he represents.
The Herald took ground from the first that
Minister Miner ought to have set up law
Of nations for himself, since he was dealing
with a people who could not well resent
such action. From what has been given
out by correspondents less i'll the habit of
reporting things to be which they wish 10
be than the HerdIPS Washington repre-
sentative, both the President and Mr.. Blaine
hold that Miner stated the law of nations
governing such cases correctly. 1t has been
urged in some quarters that Mr.. Miner
should have informed Barrundia of his
agreement with the authorities of Guate-
mala that Barrundia should have fair
trial. 1t appears from the latest reports
that the captain of the Acapulco was read
ing MINERS letter to Barrundia when the
lat,er commenced firing. There is no law,
national or international, which requires
the men Composing an arresting party to re-
main passive> bile the other party is firing

we admit that the $4,000 tin-workers were
residents of the country before they became
tin-workers. and consequently consumers
of farmers products, we must also admit
that they are drawn from other industries
and that their employment in the tin-plate
industry creates vacancies in the ranks of
the great army of employees. The law of
supply and demand is relative rather than
absolute. If the army of consumers be in
creased sufficiently, an excessive supply

Inc 100000 bushels Of wheat the country
produces one year with another affords a
surplus IN the present copdit on OF our in

new and profitable industries the proportion
OF consumers should be materially in
creased, the surplus would be needed at
home. IL is also well known that the estab-
lishment of new Industries or the deyelop-
ment Of old ones tends to diminish the
number of wheat producers while increas-
ing the number of wheat consumers.

Commissioner Morgan Says They Are
Advancing Yearly.
The following interesting details regarding
the condition of the Indian question at pres
ent were given yesterday by j. I. Morgan,
Commissioner Of Indian Affairs, who is in
this city.
The number of Indians in the Western
country is about 100000. This year about
S7,00U0O0 will be expended in their mainte-
nance and advancement, in which there is
steady growth throughout the Union
Last year 10000 Indian pupils attended
the schools set apart for them. The Indian
boys show an adaptability to work which is
surprising. At Carlisle last year, in addition
to the 77S pupils who have done the work in
the different shops, 4G0 were out among the
Pennsylvania farmers working by the
month, and earned in wages during the year
$4,000 The education of Indians for the
present year will cost $2,0O0,O0O
