The New York sun in commenting on
the Paddock Pure Food bill recently
passed by the United States Senat with
out "A division, and requiring from every
skipper of God or drugs from one State to
another, a sample of same to ne furnished
to the agents of the food section of the
Chemical Division of the Department. of
Agricultural, on the penalty of a fine of
from $40 to 800, and imprisonment for
from 30 to 100 days. Says, among other
ut is upon this measure that the Hon.
Algernon Sidney Paddock Of Nebraska
found his reputation as a statesman. Who
asks for the supervision proposed by this
billt What is its real object? Why are
the States not able to take OF the food and
and the drugs that are manufactured or
sold within their limits? We need not
not dwell upon the opportunities
which the bill offers eff annoying
and blackmailing manufacturers of
drugs and articles of food. But what is the
colored citizen I'm the woodpile Have the
petitions which have been presented in
favor of this particularly putrid measure
come from a common source and been in
spired by a business interest, which seeks
the aid of the government to put down a
competing business ? Are the influences
which were behind the Conger pure"
lard bill, also behind the "pure" food
bill We have not heard that the citi-
zens of the United States are complaining
about the quality of their food or their
drugs. Are "a few hogs in the West
squealiug about ~cottonsced oil.
This is u bill to be put at the foot Of the
House calendar and r~etrograded."

lBY LEASED WIRE TO rHE NEws.1
ALBANY, April IA Democratic bolt OF
serious proportions has exploded In the
Legislature. Col. William Brown Of the
Battery district, New York, and young
Charles Walker, of Corning, have taken
umbrage Mt a published interview with
Senator Hill. and yesterday they voted
with the Republicans in the Senate In a
determined effort to block the Congress
ional Reapportionment bill.
The interview quoted Senator Hill as
critlcising the Independence Of "some
Senator'S" and charging that they are
getting vain because of their reputation
for independence" When Col. Browns
attention was called to them he exclaimed
in angry tones:
"Hill calls me vain, does her He could
mean no one else but Senator Walker and
myself. I'll teach him To stop his med
ding, aud by -, ! will send him back to
Washington and make him stav there or
l will prevent everything from going
through the Legislature. What business
has he herey"
When the Republicans found out how
the land lay Senator OConnor offered a
resolution to reconsider the vote by which
the Congressional appointment bill was
passed last night. Mr.. McCarren OF
Brooklyn promptly moved to table the
resolution and the question was put on
his motion. To the establishment OF every
one in the chamber Senators Brown and
Walker voted in the negative. Lieut..
Gov. Sheehan was hastily sent for and
attempted to quell the revolt but in vain.
Brown and Walker stood by their guns.
The Assembly had no boilers, however,
and refused TO return the bill.

THE AMAzONS ADVANCE
Dahomey's Women Warriors Again
Confront the French.
THEIR NUMBER DOUBLED,
And They Will Fight Desperately, Re-
Numbering That Some of Them Were
Shot for Cowardico in the War Of
ls90-e,000 Female Soldiers.

PARIS, April THE latest advices from
West Africa say that, before advancing
upon Porto Novo, the D~ahomeyan King,
Behanzin, recruited the Amazons to near
" double the usual number, and that all
Dahomey is filled with lamentations of
parents and husbands whose daughters
and wives have been torn away from
them by the King. Behanzin is utterly
carried away with an idea Of his power
and the prowess of his Amazons, and un-
doubtedly believes that he can drive the
French into the sea. There is a good deal
OF anxiety -elt as to the first onset of the
Dahoymeans, owing TO the desperate
temper of Behanzin and the comparative
ly small force of French at Porto Vovo.
After the repulse OF the Dahomeyans at
Kotonu In 1890 King Behanzin caused a
number OF the Amazons TO be beheaded on
the charge of cowardice, and it is appre-
hended that this lesson may make the
Amazons fight more desperately on this
occasion. A recent visitor to Abomey
says that many Of them are good looking
negresses, and the prospect Of having to
slaughter women Is not relished by the
troops of France. There is nothing femi-
nine, however, in the f~erocity with which
the Amazons attack their enemies, as the
French found in 1880.

SUPERVISOR BOYLE.
The Observer Charges That He Grossly
Exceeded His Functions.

~
ESPECIAL TO THE NEws.i
NEWPORT. April THE charge having
been made that Supervisor Boyle marked
ballots in the Fifth Ward yesterday in a
manner contrary to law, the Observer
this morning prints this personal state
ment from its editor:
"a few days ago, it was announced that
Mr.. Il. j. Boyle, n member of the common
council and president of that body, had
been appointed n of the supervisors in
the 9TH ward.
Technically he was competent in the
| eyes of the law to fill the position, though
geea taste should Aape-suggested to him
that be ought not to serve. But IL was
declared by the members OF the Demo-
cratic party that he was there for a pur-
pose.
The law provides that where n voter re-
quires assistance he shall personally re-
| quest the warden for it, and that then the
warden shall instruct the supervisor to do
what is necessary. The editor OF this
paper witnessed the arrival of Jerry Nc
Grath, Patrick Finn n John Dowd at
the wardroom gate.
"As each passed through it and went
alongside Of the supervisors table he was
handed a ballot by Mr.. Boyle. Neither of
the three voters named went nearer the
warden than from one side of the room to
the other, except when passing out.
"They made no request OF the warden
and the warden in neither case gave any
instructions to Mr.. Boyle. In each case,
however, Mr.. Boyle opened "A conversation
with the voter. After Mr.. McGrath had
been at the box for a very brief space of
time Mr.. Boyle approached the box,
leaned over the voter, and remained while
the ballot was marked.
In the case Of Finn and Dowd, Mr..
Boyle spoke TO each IA accompanied
them to the boxes, remained while the
ballots were being marked and then re-
turned TO his chair. In neither case we
the warden and in neither case did the
warden make any request of Supervisor

Henry Wilson, A years of age, was

POSSIBLY FATAL.
A Row In aISouth Main Street Hous
Last Night.

Last Monday night a woman named
Peggy Freeman visited the house of Caro-
line Cooke. on North Main street, and lbe-
coming involved in a row, received a
severe cut on the shoulder. She claims
that the Cooke woman stabbed her with a
knife, and the clean severed edges of the
wound show c~onclusively that a sharp in
strument was the weapon used. The
Freeman woman, after the affray, went
to the Third Station and was given an
order on DIR. Palmer by the captain, for
medical attendance.
DIR. Palmer dressed the wound, which
extended from the top Of the left clavicle
to just above the left breast. The con-
dition of the woman is alarming as blood
poisoning has set in, and it is expected
that death may result shortly.
A warrant has been sworn out for the
arrest of Caroline Cooke, and she will be
taken into custody soon.
