WASHINGTON. Sept 2a-The Democratic
repeal Senators have practically given mp
the idea that the Sherman law can be re.
pcaled unconditionally. and have. after
numerous conferences. decided on a COM
promise, which they believe Will end the
long fight and secure the passage OF bill
to relieve the present situation by the end
OF next week. Senator German and other
Democratic repeal Senators have been
actively engaged in arranging the terms OF
the compromise. and tonight they believe
they have succeeded. It involves con-
cessions on both sides. First. the repeal
of the purchase clause: second. the
coinage or q specified amount. two or two
and q halfmillions per month until the total
silver coinage Is 500, 600. 900. then the coin.
age of all the bullion in the Treasury. and
fourth, the sale OF gold bonds TO increase the
gold reserve to On amount which will be
deemed sufficient TO insure the mainte.
nance of gold and silver money at parity.
When the proposition was submitted TO
Secretary Carlisle at conference last
night, he insisted upon the latter provision
TO the agreement.
1t Is the general understanding tonight
that the silver Republican Senators will
agree to this compromise. Indeed, Senator
German vouches for that. The only thing
in the way of the execution of this COM
promise programme now seems to be the
President. He has not. so far ss is known.
absolutely given his consent. although the
aoquiescence of Mr. Carlisle would indi.
cate that he would do so.

laws of the State where she same is located.
Mr.. Oates said he would much prefer to
have this tax repealed. but he thought his
measure q fair compromise. He denied that

A Dog Story from Japan.

An English sportsman, out for a few
days shooting in the interior of Japan,
amused, the natives upon the evening of
his arrival at the house where he was
to put up by putting his well-trained
cocker spaniel through series of clev-
er tricks. The Jap name for dog is
s'Come here" probably because that
is just what the native ours wont
do when SO hidden. japanese dogs
are a degenerate race, unfit for
the purposes for which other dogs
are used, and uncontrolled by
their masters. Their home is in the
streets and fields. The Japanese,
therefore, look with wonder upon the
docile canine companions foreigners
bring to their country. The perform
ance of the Englishman's dog amazed
the unsophisticated Japs. This was
shown when the guest went to his
room to retire for the night. There
was his bed duly made on the floor
the japanese fashion, with the wood
en-box pillow at the head. But beside
it was another, though very diminutive,
couch The Englishman couldn't make
out what the second little bed meant.
He called the host. The latter ex-
planned matters at once. The second
bed was for: the .'wise little foreign

ENGLISH HOSPITAL ABUSES.
How Private Nurses Are ''Sweated1' -
Some London Institutions.

How Private Nurses Are "Sweatedi' MI
i Some London Institutions.
Speaking of this abuse in, the Lon
don Queen, Mrs. Bedford Fenwfck,
whose career from probationer to SUI
perintendent of nurses home per-I
mits her to do so with authority, says:
1T is a long story. suppose the
history of the movement dates back
pretty nearly to the time, some twenty
or twenty-five years ago, when edu-i
Gated women were first introduced
into hospitals, instead of the unframed
and often incapable women of the
; charwoman class who were formerly
employed. Ladies effected great and
valuable improvements in the meth
DDS of nursing, but the authorities at;
first hardly knew how to treat them
and expected them to do the mehial
work which their predecessors had
performed Then came the introduce
ton of wardmaids and this grieva nce
| was redressed.
But somehow she continued, lin
our nursing world we have no sooner
removed one abuse than another has
arisen. We had. for instance, no
sooner swept the hospitals OF our in
capable and oftrimes drunken Sairey
Camps and had put the nursing of our
hospitals upon better footing than an
unexpected trouble occurred.
''The hospital authorities began, in
short to perceive that they possessed
: in their lady nurses an unexpected
source of revenue. The public outside
the hospitals began to ask for trained
nurses. At first. no doubt, the public
got what it asked for, but gradually
some hospitals slipped into the habit
of sending out only half-trained
nurses to public which did not know
the difference. The temptation was &
pecuniary one and was certainly
! strong. A nurse at the end of her first
years training will be receiving a
nominal salary Of from sixty to eighty
dollars. But let her be sent into prit
vate families as fully trained nurse
and she is forthwith earning for the
hospital authorities two guineas a.
week.
Everybody is defrauded by such 9
systematic private employer WHO
pays at Il critical moment for the serv.
ices of competent person and does
| not get them: and the nurse. who is
both defrauded Of a large sum OF
money which she has earned and of
| the training which she entered the
hospital on the understanding she
should receive. Nor is this all Clti-
mately the hospital patients suffer also
from this dishonest system. Often the
supply of nurses from the private nursr
ing staff runs short and then nurses
are taken out of the wards to meet the
demand. You can imagine what dis
organization of ward work ensues
from such system"

A UNIQUE Revenge.

In Munich recently the socialists hit
upon novel device for Furnishing the
proprietor of beer cellar who had
refused to let his rooms for a meeting
of the Socialists club. For the Sun
day after his refusal he had arranged
a concert, at which he expected his
takings to be considerable. But the
socialists mustered early and in large
numbers. They filed up the whole
available space and ordered only-wa-
ter. The landlord was Mortified to
realize what happened. His expected
profit was turned into a heavy loss.
The landlord sued the leaders of the
socialists for breach of the peace, but
as no such breach could be proved they
were let go without fines.
