Price of Copper.

Copper has gone up about to IL
cents a pound of late, and the copper

metal still more of a lift. AS before

to an agreement as to the amount each

work, and concluded that it would be
foolish to begin work again while tie

have been brought up by England for the
purpose of embarrassing this country and
forcing 1t to capitulate. These diplomatic
differences should never be permitted to
drag along. They always come ND at
time to make most trouble. especially
where they are with countries not on very
friendly relations, as Is true with England.

came home late last evening. and the
cause was plainly noticeable on her breath.
Browning scolded her and Dollie answered
that she was an independent lady," and
added an invidious comparison about her
mistress. The latter's blood rose up then,
and her big Irish fist dealt Doliie a blow
that laid her on the floor. The negress
then jumped up and the two women
clinched. Hair flew wild and screams and
curses filled the house and neighbor-
hood on North East street. near Wash
ingtOn street. Tne table was upset,
dishes were broken. and tie garments of
the combatants were ragged when patrol
man Crane appeared and separated them.
Dollie refused to 60 to the station house
unless Browning was taken along too. and
when the latter was told she was under
arrest Dollie said she wouldn't ride
in the wagon unless her ssallant did. but
she had to yield this point. Browning had
to don another dress to be presentable on
The street and was then walked to the
station-house. The charge of assault and
battery was registered against both.

will not be four hundred of them in laws
when this term expires. This will be less
than one-thIrd of the lowest proportion
since any one has ever attempted to keep
trace of the comparative number OF bills
which are introduced and which become

about from 2l2 in the Congress before.
The present Congress promises 10 pass

sion bills of any Congress within fifteen
years. So far not two dozen have been
passed. At first the present House refused

Mir. Kilgore OF Texas. and number OF his

sion bill should DO passed unless quorum
of the House were present 1t rs almost an
lmpossibility to get a quorum of the House
present for any private legislation, and the
consequence has been that the Friday night
sessions have avalled nothing.
1t has been the constant contention of
the majority that this Congress was elected
on general issues to bring about certain re-
forms which would effect the entire coun-
try-a reduction of the customs duties, free
coinage OF silver decrease In the general
appropriations, etc.-and that private bills
should not be considered so long as there
were general ones for consideration. II
Mr.. Cleveland were in the White House
these days he would find very little for his
veto pen to do. and for that reason. If no
other. would doubtless be disguised.
An agreement has just been reached by
the leaders of the House looking toward
an adjournment of Congress by the middle
of July. if possible. The appropriations
are to be run through under the spur of
general orders. and the responsibility OF
long session will be thrown upon the Sen
ate. The latter body declares 1t will not
be hurried, and there promises to be some
fun over the fixing of q day for adjourn
ment in July.
