WON HER CASE.

The Woman Who Took a Dog on the
Street Car.
Madam" said the street-car con-
ductor to a young lady in a blue calico
frock, you have a dog under your
shawl, and you must leave the car
"What! Leave the carl" vociferated
the woman. 81 have paid my fare and
I'm going to stick right where am"
''Then 1 shall put you off, replied
the disciplinarian in blue.
All at once law point came into the
woman's head. "Give me back my
fare" she said. 81 got in here in good
faith, and when I paid my five cents a
contract was completed. You must
either carry it out or return my cash.
I'm not RESPONSIBLE because your cranky
directors don't like dogs
The street-car official stopped the car
and hailed policeman. The point was
stated and the thief-catcher, after pom
dering for a few moments, observed:

but claim to have some sense.
''Under your system you might make
rules that passengers mustn't wear red
neckties or red noses or three-dollar
trousers, and after they had paid fares
show 'em the rules and put them Off
There is no end to the rules you
might make to bunco folks out of their

THAT SENATE EPISODE.

Believed That Senator Harris Will Apollo
gize to Senator Sanders.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The outcome OF
the exciting episode in the Senate Satur-
day is awaited with considerable concerns
and the unfortunate occurrence is
al very general topic of discussion
and regret among Senators. Opinions
were expressed by several of the South
ern Senators that Senator Harris, whose
fiery temperament was admitted, would
apologize to Senator Sanders.
Only part of the exciting affair will ap-
pear in the official report of the Senate
and that part, without explanation, will
not be understood except by Senators and
others who witnessed the scene.
Just before the Senate went into Execu-
tive session the veteran Senator and ex-
Governor from Tennessee, Mr.. 1sham g..
Harris, closed personal explanation with
these words:
"Under these circumstances, Mr.. Presi-
dent, used language more vigorous, per
haps, than should have done, but these
are the facts"
The facts will appear in the report of
| the Senator's remarks; the " language
will not.
The unreported language was addressed
| to Senator Sanders of Montana, and was
several times audibly repeated on the floor
of the Senate though not in the public de-
| bate, and consisted in calling that Senator
| Scoundrel,"

THE INFLUENCE OF MUSIC.
Mr.. Cleveland Thinks 1t an Important Al
junct to Political Campaigns.

LOUISVILLE, July 1s-All lovers of
music know VIII s. Hays, author of
"Mollie Darling" and other melodies
Mr.. Hays recently wrote Cleveland and
Stevenson campaign song and sent copy
Of it to Mr.. Cleveland. In his reply Mr..
Cleveland writes as follows:
GRAY GABLES, July 10.
WILL S. HAYS.
Dear Sir-I received a copy of the song
you have written to be used, as you say,
for an "encourager" during the approach
ing campaign. 1 believe with you that
the influence of songs and music of the
right sort ought not to be overlooked as an
important adjunct to the political cam
paisn, and so far as am able to judge,
this latest production of yours will
serve to a good purpose in that direction.
OF one thing am certain, the composition
of this song by you is a sure demonstration
that the composer is actu ated by the sort
of spirit and enthusiasm which win cleo
tions. Very truly yours,

eLApsroNEsANp HOME RULE.
VIII He Be Able ito Push His Pet Meas
uro Through

LONDON, July 1sAHer Majesty, whose
dislike for Gladstone Is well known, Is in
sore state of mindsOver the majority, OF
about As, which he is sure to have in thu
next Parliament.
The question now aaAtating the minds
of the Liberals ia how far the Parnellite
and Labor members viii go in support OF
their venerable leader. The former prob
ably hate him more bitterly than do the
Tories, and would rather see Home Rule
defeated than to have it brought about by
his hands. They certainly would not toler-
ate a Home Rule measure fashioned by
i Gladstone, Healy and Mccarthy, and for
this reason their secret sympathy, and pos
siblytheir cooperation will go to the Con-
servatiVes and Observation-Disclosures.
The Labor members profess complete
independence, and while they are not
supposed to be opposed to Irish Home
Rule, there is little reason to believe that
they will go out of their waytto forward
it. In fact, there are measures more
nearly concerning their own constituent
.cies that they would rather have disposed
of first. Besides these 1ukewarm mem
bers, whom the public generally classes as
supporters of Mr.. Gladstone, there are a
number of Liberals whose election ad
dresses dealt'very spariTGly with the Home
II
siderable Independence should the ques-
ton come up for action.
For these reasons, and9or others which
it is unnecessary to recapitulate here, Mr..
G1adstonepwill go into power without any
positive indication that he can carry
through the pet measure OF his old age
There is no assurance that he can COM
mand a majority for a Home Rule biAt
but in spite of this he will prepare the act
and push it through Parliament If he can.
He intends, when Premier, to devote him.
self entirely to Home Rule and other much
needed legislation, leaving foreign affairs
to his colleagues. He will be the leader
of his party in the House, having the adj
vantage of Lord Salisbury, who was COM
PEELED to entrust the leadership to lieu
tenant.
For chieftopponet Mr. Gladstone will have
Mr.. BalfouG, who is said to be aching for
the opportunity to assail him from the
opposition benches. The report that Lord
Salisbury would retain Office until vote
Of want of confidence should be passed, is
without foundation. The Conservatives
are rather anxious to enjoy the spectacle
Of Mr.. Gladstone's contention with his
meager an d doubtful majority of Labor
men, anti-Parnelhties and Parnellites.
They are confident that the Liberal leader
| will be In thefmost embarrassed position of
his life, and are determined to give him
every opportunity to get there.
Lord Rosebery will, in all probability,
/ have the direction of foreign affairs. Mr..
| Gladstone could make no selection more
\ satisfactory to the gener al public, regard
\ less of party distinction.

The Adams Express Company Officials De-
cline to Talk ON the Rumors
NEW HAVEN, July 1S.-From the reti-
cence and peculiar manner of the officials
of the Adams Express Company there
seems to be some foundation for the report
of the alleged robbery of the company of a
package of money destined for the Meriden
bank.
Gen. Barton, agent of the Adams Ex-
press Company in this city, absolutely re-
fused to talk about the alleged robbery or
to say whether the sum was more or less
than $50, 900.
1t is said here that detectives have been
employed by the express company and are
at work, but no complaint of such loss
has been made to the local police.
