Pity Among Birds.
From the Globe Democrat.


81 witnessed an incident last year, -
said Oswald Grafton, "that showed that
there is a strong feeling of pity among
birds, and that sometimes they are as
charitable as men. A pair of robins had
their nest in the fence near by the house,
while pair of catbirds had built theirs
in bush close by The two pairs Matched
out their young at about the same time,
and for a short time everything went
along smoothly. Then the robins disap-
peared entirely and concluded they had
been killed. The young robins, who had
depended on their parents for food, APP
peared TO be starving. When the cat
birds came with a worm or bit of food
for their young, the young robins would
thrust up their heads and make great
noise Presently IL was noticed that the
catbirds were feeding the hungry or
phans Every night, too, while one of
the catbirds covered its own young its
mate performed the same service for the
young robins In this way both broods
were reared. the robins growing up as
strong and lively as though they had
been cared for by their own parents"

iii IRISH

T. r. O'Connor Will LIKELY BE Re-
elected as President.
LIVERPOOL. May 1.-THE Irish Ma
tional League of Great Britain will hold
a. e%onvention here. tomorrow. There
will be a demonstration of the league
Oh Sunday and a banquet OH Monday.
"A member OF the national league, out
lining The gathering. explained that the
Irish National League of Great Britain
was similar to The Irish National Fed
Grafton of America. and consists of
Irish exiles who have played an i'm
portant role i'll Irish politics DUR
Ing the past fifteen years." Con-
tlnuing. the members OF the
llish National League of Great
Britain. he said. are better trained III the
intricacies OF English politics and per.
haps more ardentiy Nationalists than
the lrishIien at home. By electing the
late Charles Stewart Parnell president
in 1876, Instead Of the late Isaac Butt,
the members still, according TO the gem
tleman referred to. gave the former the
former the first great advantage of his
political career. and paved The way. to
the modern Irish policy. When the
split am the vote against MIR. Parnell
did much to break his power.
In conclusion. the Associated Press
informant said that the members OF the
Irish National League OF Great Britain
now meet al a time of a great crisis, and
amidst the struggle going on between
the Healyites and the majority of the
party. Justin Mccarthy, Al. P, Michael
Davitt. John Dillon and other leaders
will attend the convention. and will
endeavor to heal the breach existing
between them and the H~ealyites. The
result will have an Important effect
upon the future Irish policy. 1t is ex-
pected that Thomas P. O'Connor, who
has been president of the Irish National
League of Great Britain since 1882, but
who latterly has been attacked in the
Healyite organ. the Irish Catholic, will
be reelected, and that the policy of the
majority will be reaffirmed by an over
whelming majority.
Nevertheless there is much anxiety in
regard to the result.
1t is stated that should the Healyites
gain ground the influence of the anti
Healyites would be seriously shaken.

They Regret to see Democratic
seuators United on the Tariff.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE Repub-
llcan senators by their votes today, and
also In private conversation, indicated
the purpose of voting for the amend
ments proposed by the Democratic COM
promise committee wherever they
changed from the ;d valorem to the spe-
enc system. 1t is understood that this
question OF policy was under discussion
by the Republican advisory committee
~today.and that. while a majority of those
present counseled this course. tile
decision was not unanimous. 1t is one
OF the questions which will be dis
cussed at the Republican caucus to be
held Monday night. Among other
matters which probably also occur at
the hands OF the caucus is the policy to
be- pursued in debating the tariff bill.
AS expressed in their caucus, the
proceedings Of the senate today have
served To emphasize the intentions of
the Republican senators to exploit
every phase of all the questions pre-
scented III every paragraph, and of the
Democrats to permit the Republicans
to consume the greater part Of the
lime that is to be devoted 10
talking. 1t is noticeable that
the Democrats, with the exception
OF Senator Mills stood by the commit
tee recommendations. Senators Hill
and lrby, concerning whose position
there has been speculation. were absent,
but Senator Murphy. whose position
mas been considered somewhat doubt
1ui. stood with his party. This pracli-
cally solid vote Oh the Democratic side
has given the Republicans no little con-
Germ, as they have been hopeful of crea-
atihg division among the Democrats.
Some of them predict that the connie
sion SO far displayed will not continue,
Out the best Information obtaihable at
this time indicates that however uu-
satisfactory 1t Is to a number 1t will
continue.

REPUBLICANS OBSTRUCTION.

bGI OASklkOAN 11ON
An illustration of the Republican pro-
gramme of obstruction to the proposed
tariff bill was furnished on Thursday,
when Senator Allison moved to amend
the first paragraph in the chemical
schedule by restoring the rate of duty
on acetic acid provided in the McKin-
ley bill. On this a long discussion en-
sued, and the amendment was finally
defeated, only to give place to a second
involving the anne principle, which
gave excuse for a renewal of the de-
bate. In this way the entire day was
consumed, and no result was reached.
The tariff bill covers several thousand
articles. Upon each one of these the
same course may be pursued-from one
day to a month being co assumed in the
discussion of each. The present gener-
alton of senators may pass away and
give place to their grandchildren, and
still the talk may proceed. and when the
millennium shall have begun the same
discussion will be in progress.
This incident of Thursday illustrates
how little reliance can be placed upon
the pledges of the Republicans. Some
time ago, at a caucus regularly called, it
was agreed that no factious amend
ments would be offered and no flibust-
ering methods employed to delay action
on the bill. Yet at the beginning of the
debate this pledge has been deliberately
violated and a system inaugurated that
promises to be effective In defeating
any action of whatever nature. 1t has
often been said that there is honor
among thieves; it has often been DEM
onstrated that there is no honor among
the Republicans in the United States
senate.
There is every reason to believe that
the action of the caucus of Republican
senators was taken with a deliberate
purpose to conceal their real purpose
from the public, and with the express
intention Of paying no heed to either
the letter or the spirit of the promise
they made. The Impotence of the
country for action on the tariff was too
manifest to fail of recognition. It was
thought e%xpedient to allay this impa-
thence in a manner by making fair
promises. But it was an entirely diff
ferent thing when it came to carrying
out those promises. Such a thing was
never contemplated.
1t is we'll that the Republicans have
been unmasked and their true policy
revealed to the people. The response
bility for further delay will rest upon
their shoulders. The Democrats are
ready for Immediate action. They will
vote for the bill as it stands today, not
because they approve of its every de-
tail. but because they recognize the
fact that it is the best they can 10 under
existing circumstances.
Unless the Republicans change their
plans they will have a long account to
settle with the people. No man guilty
of impeding the progress of this bill
deserves, or will receive, the public con-
fdence, and he may make up his mind
to bid farewell to the scene of his pres.
ent activities or inactivities at the close
of his present term. The country has
already suffered too much to patiently
endure further delays.

CANADIAN RETALIATION.

A Scheme to Bring About Free

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE proceed
ings i'll the senate upon Senator CALM
gers amendment to the tariff bill, pro-
viding for a retaliatory clause against
Canada, indicates that that question is
liable to receive considerable attention
before the bill shall be disposed of. MIR.
G%allinger's speech was brief, but Sena-
tors Lodge and Hale both indicated a
desire to discuss the question, and the
amendment was withdrawn for the
time In order to enable them
to make preparations before pre-
senting their views. 1t is un-
derstood that other senators will
also make speeches on the amendment
when it again comes before the senate.
The proposed amendment provides that
