DISGRACING THE BAR.

Within the last two years, a
very respectable set of lawyers
have been practiclng before the
District courts, and especially the
Police court. But recently these
courts have been invaded by an
Incompetent and ignOrent class OF
men, who are a disgrace to the
District bar. Not only do these
incompetent men degrade the
other colOred members of the bar,
but they are disgrace to the race.
Ii is amusing to enter the police
court just before his honor, judge
Miller enters and behold some of
these ducks with their high hats
and standing collars of course there
are some who wear high hats and
standing collars who do credit to
the legal profession. 1t is more
than amusing to see them examine
witnesses. No doubt the court
would like to give them recomen-
dation to leave.
The Police court is being infest
ed with jackie G lawy ers.

The action of the Chilian government
in delaying the tender of an apology !"
in striking contrast with the action Of
the United States Government IN the
Malta affair at New Orleans. Within
week after the occurrence OF the No"
Orleans trouble the President, in an
official communication to the Italian
government, characterized the New Or
leans affair as ~deplorable, and ex.
pressed his "regret" at its Occurrences.
No such utterances have been received
from Chilian authorities. Their every
utterance has been in the nature OF
justification of the action Of the Chilian
mob The inquiry instituted by the
Chilian government has appeared to the
United States Government as having
been conducted with q view to justify
ing the assault.
1t is expected by Congress that the
President will present the Chilian CORE
spondencs during the week. A dispatch
was received from Commander Evans.
Of the United States steamship York
town, now at Valparaiso, saying that the
arrangements to send the BalmacedisI
refugees to neutral parts on merchant
vessels had to be abandoned, owing to
the action taken by the Chllian minister
of foreign affairs. Commander Evans
informed the minister, through Mr..
Egan, that he considered his action and
criticism as being very offensive.

the best known musical directors

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Late News at the Seat Of Government


WofA In
The work for the week will be very
light in both branches Of Congress unless
the President submits the Chilian CORE
spondence. Outside Of a number OF
minor bills, the only thing of any mo-
ment that will come up is the measure
reported by Mr.. Richardson, Of Tennes'
see, from the joint committee on print
ing, entitled "a bill providing for the
public printing and binding, and ths
distribution of public documents.
Considerable discussion was caused
during the week by two resolutions intro
duced by Mr.. Holman, chairman OF the
appropriations committee.
This is the first resolution:
Resolved, That in the Judgment Of this
House the granting Of subsidies or bounties by
Congress in money. public lands, bonds. or by
Endorsement. or by pledge Of the public credit,
to promote special private industries or enter
prises of corporations, Independent OF the
question of the Constitutional power OF Con-
gress to make such grants. Is unjust and tmpol-
itic and in manifest conflict with the spirit Of
our republican institutions, as it directly tends
to create and foster the wealth OF favored
classes at the expense Of the whole people who
bear the burdens of Government and mani
festly furnishes undue facilities for the en-
largement of great private estates-a policy
which Government Of the people can not
justly or safely encourage by any form OF IA
voritism in legislation.
The resolution was adopted by q vote
of 229 ayes to 40 nays.
The second resolution reads thus:
Resolved, In view Of the present condition
Of the Treasury and because efficient and hon.
est government can only be assured by the fru-
gal expenditure of the public money, while
unnecessary and lavish expenditure under any
and all conditions lead inevitably to venal and
corrupt methods in public affairs, no money
ought to be appropriated by Congress from the
public Treasury except such as is manifestly
necessary to carry on the several departments
frugally. efficiently. and honestly admin
istered.
Carried by 164 yeas to 95 nays.
