A QUESTION OF DETECTIVES.
The Reasons Why the Regular Police
Are to be Relied Upon.

There is to come up for consideration in
the Legislature in few days bill for an
act requiring tia al private detectives
shall be licensed by he boards of alder
men and the town councils, and that they
shall be under the government of the au-
thorities
1t is not the intention of the promoters
Of the bill to shut out any reputable man
who may now be In the private detective
business, nor TO limit that service to a
chosen few; but rather that the service
may be improved and that those who may
deem It az advisable Wis to employ secret r, AGENTS
Cases illustrating the evils OF employing
such men to get evidence against men and
women for the purpose OF securing di-
vorces are cited from Old Orchard, Me-,
where they were exposed, and elsewhere.
There has also been complaint locally of
unwarranted espionage by unauthorized
detectives. The recent attempt to show
that the police department of this city
had not properly handled n case in which
a young man was accused of either rob-
berry or an attempt at it, is said to be right
in point, as the police authorities are to
be relied upon, being direcrly under the
authority Of an able board of aldermen
and the chief being under bonds to prop
erly perform his duties.
The character of Detective Parker is
well known. AS mere boy he was a
cavalryman and participated in the most
dangerous conflicts his branch OF the SER
vice experienced in the war of the rebel
lion. II was his fortune to fight against
the Mosby guerillas and once the halter
was almost about his neck at the COM
mand of that wicked freebooter. He has
been one Of the most faithful officers in
the police department and has been the
means of bringing some Of the worst crim-
inals in the country to justice. He broke
up dangerous gang of blackmailers in
this city three or four years ago, and the
secret OF much of the opposition to him,
1t is said dates back to that affair. De-
tective Swan, Detective Murray and Chief
Child won their laurels on the battlefield.
The citizens of Providence will stand by
these faithful officers

REPRESENTATIVE LODGES BILL
He Wants to Take Postmasters Out Of tn
Political Ring,


He Wants to Take Postmasters Out Of the
Political Ring,
WARRINGTON, April 19.-An interesting
proposition, embodying a new method OF
selecting fourth class postmasters, IL un-
der consideration by the House commit
tee on reform In the civil service. It Is
contained in bill introduced by Repre-
sentative Lodge of Massach husetts.
The bill proposes that post Office in
spectors shall pass upon the qualifica-
tions OF candidates for appointments as
fourth class postmasters and designate to
the postmaster general such persons as
they think At to be appointed to the Of
Ace.
The postmaster general is to select one
OF the candidates so designated as tit for
appointment, but IL for any cause he Sc
lects any candidate other than the one
graded highest by the inspector, he is to
place upon record In his Office his reasons
that Of the one appointed.
The chief object and declared purpose
of the bill In found In a section prohibit
ing the postmaster general, for political
reasons or upon political grounds, from
appointing, or post Office inspector from
recommending for appointment, any per-
son to the office OF postmaster OF fourth
class post Office, and they are TO prevent,
as far as they are able, any person from
disclosing the political connections or
opinions OF any applicant. The commit
tee today discussed the details OF the bill
but came to no conclusion. Some mem
bers Of the committee objected to the
proposed new method on the ground
that IL would prove too expensive.

SENATORS ARE ANXIOUS.
Only a Few Days for Action Against
the Chinese.
A BITTER sTUGGLE TO-DAY.
Senator Chandler Offers Some Amend
ments to the House Biii-Hs Proposes
That Chinese Immigration be sus-
pended for . Term Of Years.

WARRINGTON, April ls.-Ths Pacific
Coast senators viii make bitter strug.
gle when the Chinese restriction bill
comes before the Senate today. They
will sndeavor to have the Senate adopt
the bill as It came from the House instead
of the Senate committees substitute; but
to do this they must overcome tho scru-
pies of a large number of senators, many
of them Democrats, who are inclined to
the belief that the bill is unconstitution-
al and repugnant to the fundamental
principles Of the Republic.
The great concern of all senators now is
as to the very short time-ten days-re-
naming during which the present laws
will be in force. It Is feared that
this brief space Is insufficient to
secure the enactment OF legisla-
tion on the subject OF any kind,
in which event there is . prospect that
several thousand Chinese will swarm over
the boundary from British Columbia and
enter at the Pacific ports before neces-
sary laws can be adopted and put into
operation.
Senator Chandler introduced number
of amendments to the House bill. Tbs
action was significant as an indication OF
tho extent OF the belief that the House
by the Senate. The amendments provide
that the coming of Chinese persons into
the United States, shall be suspended for
l5 years, in place OF tho absolute prohi-
bition OF the House bill.
They reduce from to 2 years the i'm
prisonment prescribed as q punishment
for Chinese found to be unlawfully in
the United States and they strike out
that part of the last section of the bill
which abrogates all treaties in conflict
with IL.

On Saturday, April 9, two Russians were

THE FIFTY-sEcoND CONGRESS-.

That Was Done by Senators and Repre-
sentatives at Yesterdays Session.
WARRINGTON. April 1e.-Easter Mon
day opened dismally. Tho rain fell In
torrents, the walking was unpleasant and
there was q mixture of chill and warmth
about the atmosphere which was very
disagreeable. The result was that the at
tendance Of members In the House was
small when the hour OF noon arrived.
Mr.. McRse, from the committee on
public laws, moved to suspend the rules
snd pass bill to adjust the swamp land
grants and to tx limitations for fling
claims Hereunder. The bill provides
that for all swamp or overhowed lands
granted to any state which were sold for
cash, such state shall have credit for the
full amount OF the purchase money re-
ceived, by the United States. and for all
OF said lands In any state located with
warrants or scrip or which were other
Else disposed OF by the United States
and for which indemnity has not been
granted, such state shall have indemnity
n cash, the amount thereof to be limited
% the price at which the lands were held
t the date OF their disposal by the
United States.
After discussion by Mr.. Oates of Ala
anna, and Terry OF Arkansas, in favor Of
he bill and by Mr.. Holman Of Indiana
sud Mr.. McMillin OF Tennessee, In opposi-
tIon, the motion to suspend the rules and
pass the bill was defeated: Yeas, 113;
nays, n, not q two-thirds vote In the af-
drmative.
The House then went into committee
,f the whole on the naval appropriation
bill.
The bill was passed after lengthy de-
bate and many unsuccessful amendments
and then the house adjourned.
In the Senate Mr.. Calls motion to re-
consider the vote whereby on Thursday
last the Senate passed the bill to amend
the act of 1890, to establish q circuit
court Of appeals and to define and regu-
lase In certain cases the Jurisdiction OF

up and SO amended by q change OF ver-
biage as to be satisfactory to Mr.. Call and

That John L. Sullivan is confident of
winning in his coming fight with Corbett
is evident from the following statements
which the champ" made in Cincinnati
last night:
II am a tetotaller now. I have not
drank drop in five months, except in st.
Paul. during the week of the Fitzsim-
mons-Maher fight, and drank little all
of that week.
"But from now on, until begin train
ing, will not take drink.
II will begin training about June 80
would like Bay st. Louis il i have my
choice. However, my training quartz rs
will be decided upon by my hackers.
81 will train in a quiet place and out OF
convenient reach of the many people.
II have not the slightest idea who will
look after my training. 1t will not be
Muldoon, for will not train like did fer
Kilrain.
II took long walks then; this time will
not walk so much. The pri cipal features
of my training will be skipI ing the rope.
Il think it the very best Kind of exer-
else for a pugilist. 1t Is an exercise that
keeps arms and legs going, and your chest
is brought into n, play as well: :, Besides, |
a fighting bag to hit. will also play foot
ball.
"Corbett is a clever boxer, and I pre-
sumo, nice fellow. OF course will win,
aud will win easily. don't want to ap-
pear in the light of blusterer, but look
on the purse or $40 900 stake as very easy
money"
The next boxing event at the Metropole
Club will probably be another amateur
tournament in which all the best ama
teurs in New England will participate
There will be no open events on this occa-
sion all the contests being special bout I.
Among others who will be on hand VIII
be the famous Walcott, the colored 13o
pound man who made Barnett quit in
one round at the last tournament. In al
dition to the boxing, Walcott will also b 4,
matched against local man TO wrestle.
Following the amateur tournament will
come the contest TO finish between Mike
Cooney of this city who is now at Somer-
Vile, and Barney Hubbard of Boston, at
12s pounds The club has decided to Of
fer good trophy for these two men aud
IL is almost certainty that they will ac-
cept, as both are anxious to settle the
question Of supremacy in a contest to q
finish.
The Gladstone Club has as yet made no
arrangements for their next meeting. A
trophy worth 500 has been offered for
Tommy Mccarthy Of Woburn and Ed
Binney, but it is hardly probable that the
club will be able TO arrange a match be-
tween this pair, as Mccarthy cannot get
below 100 pounds, while Binney thinks he
Is still in the middleweight class and that
IL would be giving away TOO many pounds
to meet Mccarthy at l6D.
There is plenty of good talent on the
market, however. and IL Binney aud Nc
Carthy decline the Gladstone's offer, the
club will not be obliged TO disbsud for
want Of attractions. Il. w. A
