STATUS OF THE COPYRIGHT BILL.
Neither Good Enough for Its Friends nor
bad Enough for It's Enemies.
nv .aIe1ranh 70 the DispatchI


WASHINGTON, February 1S.-The status OF
the copyright bill passed by the Senate to-
day is not so good as its friends desire nor
80 bad as its enemies wish. The attach
ment of three amendments suficed TO send
the bill back to the House. and the sena-
tors opposed to the bill, realizing that their
combined opposition would not defeat
tha measure on direct vote, aided
in loading it down with amendments,
so as TO handicap II in the House.
Only one of these amendments, however,
ia really obnoxious to the friends OF the
bill. That is the Sherman-Carlislea amend
ment. which, by allowing the importation
at fixed rates of duty or the copyrighted
works of foreign authors, threatens at one
hlow 10 divorce the interests OF publishers
from those of authors. But the conference
committee appointed by the Senate IS be-
I;eved 10 have been selected with a view toa
triumph of the original House bill, and 1t
rs not expected that they Will offer any
very serious objection to dropping the
amendments one and all in conference,
NOR is il at all probable that the Senate
would refuse to accept such conference
renort. tor n number of senators SUFFICIENT
IN turn the scale who voted for the
Amendments would willingly consent to
their omission if tcame to the issue OF drop
ming them or losing the entlre bull.
The main obstacle lies III the ftouse. Inc
hill as amended lies on the Speakers table,
and whenever business on that table Is
reached. which may be any morning. when
AN appropriation blll does not intervene,
tbe Bin will be IN peculiarly fit position
for immediate action. AS it involves no
anpropriation, when il is laid before the
House any member may as a privilege move
10 grant the request Of the Senate for
conference ifthis motion prevails the maj
dificulty arising at that stage will proba-
bly be found in the opposition OF MessTs.
Payson and Hopkins, of Illinois, who, 1t Is
saId. will ATTEMPT 20 defeat the motion to
aupoint a conference and endeavor TO send
the bill back TO the committee. The copy
right men. however, are preparing, 70
et1enothen their forces and feel confident
thai thew will be able TO commant ma

BANK LOANS PAYABLE IN GOLD.
Representative Sweet, of Idaho, to-day
introduced a resolution, the preamble OF
which sets forth that certain national
banks in the country are refusing TO loan

gold, which course tends to discredit the
currency of the country, whether baseo
upon gold or silver. The resolution there
fore provides that any national bank at
tempting to degrade the currency OF the
country by demanding other than the law
full money shall forfeit Its charter.
ANOTHER SUCCESSOR TO INGALLS,.
The subject of the selection of sue
cessor to Senator Ingalls, (who retires from
the Senate March 4th) as president pro te1'.
is being privately discussed among the
Republican senators. II will be necessary
to arrange this matter before the 4th OF
March in order to guard against q vacancy
in the presiding officers chair after that
date, so caucus of Republican senators
will be held probably next week to elect
Senator Ingalls's successor. II does not
appear that much effort is making on the
part Of senators to secure the place, and
but three names have been put forward
prominently. which are those of Senators
Plat, Hoar, and Frye.

ENROLMENT IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The Relative Growth Thereof Greatest In
the Southern States.
nv telegraph % the Dispatch.I

WASHINGTON, February 1s.-The Census
Office has in press bulletin prepared by
James II. Blodgett, expert special agent,
showing the general enrolment in the pub
lie schools of Arizona, California, Con-
necticut, the District of Columbia, Maine,
Maryland. Massachusetts,, Montana, North
Carolina, Ohio. Oklahoma, South Dakota,
Vermont, Virginia, and Wyoming and
eightv-three cities. The most striking
showing of the bulletin is the compare
tive growth of population and pub
lic-school enrolment. In New Hsmp-
shire, Maine, and Vermont, however.
there has been a slight decline in the
public-school enrolment. The relative
gain is generally greatest in the South,
but phenomenal extreme of gain in popu-
lation and school enrolment is shown in
South Dakota. In that State the per cent.
of gain in population is 234.6. while the
per cent. of gain in school enrolment is
$3.50. The following table shows the per
cent. of gain or loss in population and
school enrolment during the last decade
in the States under consideration:
Louisiana: Per cent. of gain in popula-
ton. 1901. Per cent. Of gain in public
school enrolment, 1882.
Maryland: Per cent. of gain in popula-
ton, 11.49 Per cent of gain in public
school enrolment, 22.S5.
NOrL0 OdTOlluds CtHt. VI gam III pup
ulation, 1859. Per cent. of gain in public
school enrolment, 27.0S.
South Carolina: Per cent. of gain in pop
ulation, 1858. Per cent. of gain in public
school enrolment, $3.50.
Virginia: Per cent. OF gain in popula-
ton, 9.48 Per cent. of gain in public
school enrolment, $50.
The relation of men to women among
teachers in the States under consideration
appears to vary from a minimum Of ten
men to ninety-two women in Massachu-
setts to maximum of 100 men to 101 wo-
men in South Carolina If the colored
teachers of South Carolina are taken sepa-
rately there appears to be 100 men to fifty
eight women. The other New England
States approach the relation shown In
Massachusetts,. while Ohio shows higher
ratio of men than any of the other north
ern States, or 100 men to 113 women, close
ly followed by Arizona and Pennsylvania.
The ratio of boys and girls in public
schools has a comparatively small range of
variation. This is more striking when the
great variation in legal-school age and the
diverse conditions of population are taken
into account. The extreme are Arizona,
where one hundred boys are enrolled to
eighty-fve girls, and the District of Co
lumbia, where the enrolment IS one hun
bred boys to one hundred and thirteen
girls

A New York Trust Company suspends.
TBy telegraph 70 the Dispatch.l

NEW YORK, February 1s.-The American
Loan and Trust Company closed its doors
at half-past II to-day, the immediate cause
being q demand for large amount of
money which the Trust Company could
not meet. Three savings banks, bank IN
Syracuse, one in Rochester, and other out
side banks. the names of which are not
known, demanded payment of deposits
amounting to S3G0,0OO. Tine institution
could not pay, and at the request of one OF
the savings banks the Superintendent took
possession. Later he sent for Bank-Ex-
aminer Cahill, who Is now in charge.
Bank-EXamincr Preston says the appa-
rent deficiency IN the assets of the Amerl-
can Loan and Trust Company is 1856, 7S9.
He has reason 10 believe that tomorrow
this will be reduced to S475,00J. This
amount, some interested people expect,
will be made good by the stockholders
and the institution be placed on its feet
again.

There are some things which mothers
do with great reluctance. They cannot
stop their children's growth and they
don't want TO do that, but if the young
est member OF the family happens to be
boy, they wan! to keep his hair in
curls and keep him in pretty dresses as
long as they can. The maternal instinct
which prompts this is entirely natural,
but the line must be drawn somewhere,
for girlish boy is no more to be desired
than boyish girl. There isn't a more
attractive human being under the sun
than manly little fellow, and there isn't
surer way of making q manly little
fellow of your son than by purchasing
for him one of our Suits with knee-pants.

New York, February 1s.-The report of
the withdrawal of the American Associa-
ton from the national agreement was sub
stantiated to-day at the st. James Hotel,
where the delegates of the association are
IN session for the purpose of affecting re-
organization. President Thurman has
been removed for bad faith to the associa-
ton. His recent action in voting to give
Stovey, Bierbauer, and Mack to the Ma
tional League has incensed the association
to q point where it has renowned the
national agreement, denounced Thurman
as tool of Spalding, and is now engaged
at the st. James Hotel in this city In re-
organizing entirely. Vanderhorst was
offered the presidency, but he declined the
honor, and the choice fell upon Louis
Kramer, of Cincinnati. who will also per-
form the duties of secretary and treasurer.
