Enskar left London on April %, and had
fine weather for a week. When the
weather phenomena showed that a storm

every precaution and tried TO keep on
the edge of the hurricane, but this time
il proved TO be rather more erratic than
he expected. On May 4 the full fury of
the storm burst upon the Enskar, and
for three days she battled with the

Talk Revived OF Making Use of

WASHINGTON, Sept. Sin the senate
the entire week will, in all probability,
be consumed in the consideration of the
bill for the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman act. There will
probably be some diversion from the
main subject tomorrow when Mr.. Voor-
hees attempts TO secure the adoption of
the resolution of which he gave notice
yesterday for IL o'clock sessions; but
this resolution is only means on the
part of the supporters of the bill to
force its more speedy consideration,
and may, therefore. be considered as
a part of the scheme to devote the
entire time of the senate to the repeal
measure. The bill for the extension of
bank circulation is still OH the calendar

little question that 1t Will be side

to squarely face the one issue for which
the session was mainly called, and to
allow no side issue to divert its atten-

that there may be quite sharp

MUST SHOW A CRIME.
An Important Decision by a Du-

DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. 8. - Judge
Lewis last evening made ruling that
upsets a universal practice of commit
ting magistrates i'll the state and which
will give freedom to greater portion of
those now held i'll county jails awaiting
indictment, if they care to ask it. 1t has
been the custom for years to permit
prisoner arraigned for an indictable
offense to waive examination if he
wished. On this waiver he will be held
to the grand jury. In habeas corpus
proceedings brought before him Judge
Lewis held this TO be an error. To hold
a prisoner for Indictment the state must
show crime and probable cause to be-
lieve the prisoner guilty. This cannot
be done when the record shows only a
waiver. The point is one never raised
before i'll Minnesota.
