The Famous Novelist Denounces the

London. September 17.-Ouida

novelist, has written 4 long letter to
Truth making q yiruleut attack upon
Signor Crispi, the Italian prime min
lister, for his treatment of political
prisoners, whom Ouida calls his un-

with the case Of Giuseppe de Felice
Gultfrada, who represented the sec
oud Catania district in the chamber
of deputies, and who was recently SEN
fenced to long term Of Imprisonment
for the part he took in the socialist

COSTLY MISTAKES or CONGRESS

Harpers Weekly The Wilson bill,
rs reported to the senate by the finance
committee last February, contained
about $4,000 words. 1t made volume
of more than 300 of the large pages
customary in congressional bills, print
ed in large type, with ample spacings
and margins. BY the tine the senate
got through amending il, 1t was a
great deal longer. The Mckinley bill.
as II came from the house of repre-
sentatires, was only siXty-seven pages
long. but the amendments to II made
in the senate committee on finance
filed i62 pages, and amounted 10000
words Next to the Mckinley bin in
length, in the record of the engrossing
clerks of congress, was tho Interstate
commerce law, which contained 5000
words. 1t Is physical impossibiity
in copying So many words to avoid
making errors. The fact that laws are
now printed on parchment instead of
being engrossed with the pen makes
the liability of accident In copying
a little less Proof-reading Is easier on
the printed page. But where every
comma has an exaggerated value land
a comma in tariff act may be worth
million dollars or more to the govern
ment, ii was to be expected that costly
errors would fill the new law Twenty
five or thirty have already been dis
covered, and more will undoubtedly
appear.
The costly errors made in the past
have not all been attributable to the
engrossing clerks either Where so
many subjects are handled there are
600 in the Wilson bill as we'll as more
than 100 paragraphs relating to the
administration of the law something
must be neglected, The treasury de
partment officials who examined the
Wilson bin for the senate committee
discovered over 400 errors In it. 1t
has been found, now that the bill has
become a law, that some errors of con-
sequence escaped even the vigilance of
the treasury experts
