NO QUORUM.

Ex-Speaker Reed probably enjoys the
situation in the House more than the iolli-
est of his Democratic opponents. Business
moves along quietly until something is done
that somebody does not like. and then the
objection Of mo quorum" is raised. This
involves call Of the House, which, when
often repeated, is somewhat tedious pro-
ceeding. Mr.. Reeds rules would not i'm
prove the situation Ii there were really no
quorum present, but if there were mem bers
present who declined 10 vote Reed would
count them and thus enable business 10 pro-
ceed. The heat OF the present summer may
lhauce Congress TO change the Gay Of the
hrst meeting of a new Congress from De-
cemoer Co September or October. Two or
three good months Tor work could thus be
gained. If Congress- SsouId meet in Octo-
Der it might adjourn I'm June without loss

Watson OF Georgia was undoubtedly very
indiscreet in making general charges Of
drunkenness against members of Congress-
lie declared that there were not only men
who sat and voted in an hilarious condition,
but that Representatives sometimes ad-
dressed the house in the thick language
when characteTlZes muddled ideas. Now
when he is confronted with committee OF
inquiry, before which he could state his
charges lnltely, he declines to mention
any names unless under compulsOn. and
only hints that there are two persons whose
names he could reveal. Ii was a most In
discreet charge to make under any circum-

DECLARED INSANE.

Alice Mitchell, the eccentric young lady
who murdered q girl companion from love
Of her, has been declared insane. Possibly
if the girl had been declared q moral idiot
the verdict would have better fitted the
case. Miss Mitchell does not appear to
have been insane on other matters. No
one suspected her Of being insane until
sue committed a murder. But it is evident
that she bad no conception of the enormity
of the crime she had committed, assuming
that she was sufficiently responsible to
commit crime. She talked and laughed
over the event as II 1t had been mere
schoolgirl prank. At the trial she admitted
her intention to kill Miss Ward if the latter
refused 10 marry her. While it is apparent
that Miss Mitchell was mentally ire
sponsibie, hers is not the kind OF insanity
that ordinary treatment may cure. Persons
who are utterly lacking in moral sense are
likely 10 become menace to the peace of a
community at any time.

AUCTIONING FRUIT.

1t is reported that the auction sales Of
fruit in this city, which have been tried for
the past few days, are a success. The plan
previously followed has proved unsatisfac-
tory to the shippers, and we may also be-
lieve to commission merchants. The own
ers of the fruit generally desire to know
promptly what their fruit brings. and this
under the commission arrangement has
been diff ,ult of attainment. A few COM
mission men may have extra facilities for
making sales, but even such persons can be
overloaded with fruit. At any rate, the
anxiety Of those merchants receiving con-
signments to sell for a good price caused
ottsntimes the holding of fruit so long that
it was injured. Under the present arrange
ment the fruit is at once distributed to re-
tail dealers and goes into consumption. II
the auction system is continued there will
be less loss from decayed fruit, some of
which has been heretofore thrown into the
bay.

THE INFLUENCE.

We notice that the Chronicle objects to

Railroad Company. The turntable is being
enlarged, the paper says, without authority
The Geary-street Railroad a contemporary
calls the southern Pacific Company
which we suppose means that the road is
owned by the same parties. This may
explain why the turntable can be- changed
without authority. If il does block up a
thorOughfare The Chronicle should apply
at Fourth and Townsend streets. where it
ought to have influence, to stop blocking
