WASHINGTON, Aug. 14-There was
but scattering of Senators present
today when the e-President call
ed the Senate to order. At 1915 the
reading of the journal was concluded
and messenger from the House in
formed the Senate that the House
had passed the bill placing coal, iron
ore, barbed wire and sugar on the free
list, in which it asked the concur
renee of the Senate.
1t Is not thought possible to pass the
free coal, iron ore md barbed wire
bills in the Senate. There is little
doubt ia case direct vote could be
had on the free sugar bill that it
would be passed. If it should fail of
being referred to the Finance Com.
mlttee the Republicans would offer a
bounty amendment which would
carry If Stewards vote could be had,
otherwise it would be defeated by a
tie vote. 1t is said if the bill is de.
bated at much length it will go over
until the next session. ..>
Henderson objected to the second
reading of the free list bills.
Hill gave notice of an amendment
repeating all income taxes. The bill

Hauled over the Goals.

The following from the report of
the Washes county Grand Jury shows
up the outrageous freight charges Of
the Southern Pacific company:
aThe Grand Jury, during its invest
cation, finds that the citizens of this
county are charged unjust freight
rates from Eastern points to Reno,
Washoe county, Nevada, as follows:
1--WE find that the rate ON beer from
st. Louis, Mo, to Sacramento, Cal, in
carload lots n al IL per 100 pounds,
the distance being 2,2ss miles. The
same to Reno 81 81 per 100 pounds,
the distance being 2133 miles. 1t
costs $40 more for car to Reno, Ne
vada, than to Sacramento, California.
We also find that the rate on barbed
wire from Waukegm, ILL.,, to Sacra-
mento, Gal, in carload lots Is 1913 80
and the same TO Reno, New, 1921 40,
the freight having to pass throug
Reno, New, to Sacramento Cal, over
the Central Pacific railroad.
"The above charges are exacted I'M
der the Interstate Commerce act by
having the fourth section of said act
suspended in this State, thereby al
lowing the said railroad company, to
charge the people of this State for
service never performed. We, there
fore, call the attention OF our Sena-
tors and Member of Congress to this
unjn st enactment on the part of said
railroad company, and request them
to use their best endeavors to require
the Interstate Commission to have
the fourth section Of said act put III
operation i'll Washoe county, State of
Nevada. The items herein specified
are only few of the many that have
been presented to us for investigation"

A BIRD-HUNTING PIG.
She Was Just as Reliable Any We'll.
 Bred Pointer ill the Field.

Bred Pointer ill the Field.
 The following from an exchange il- lustrates pigs intelligence:
 We call pigs stupid creatures This is not fair. They are really as intelli- gent as the majority of domestic ami mals, but the lives we allow them are too short and their opportunities too few for them to show their abilities to ad- vantage. The pig of which I have more particularly to tell was by no means handsome specimen, but what she wanted in beauty she made up in intel igence.
 As baby pig she belonged to per son named Toomer, and she was raised with a family of young pointer pup pies. She took kindly to her playfel- lows, and when they became old enough to follow the keeper in his walks she too would come trotting and grunting after. When Mir. Toomer began to train his young charges for the work of find ing and pointing out game there was danger that piggy might make mis- chief. But the keeper would not leave her shut up at home He had, he said, broken many dogs as obstinate as pigs and could surely break pig that was so much more tractable than the rest of her kind.
 So he taught her to ''back"-that is, to stand perfectly still whenever dog had found game and was pointing at it. To teach her this he used both re- wards and punishments; when she did wrong he pelted her with tiny stones, for he could not catch her and chas- tise her as he did naughty puppies, and when she behaved herself well he had always barley meal pudding in his pocket for her. But this was not all. He discovered that piggy, like many other pigs, had a keen sense of smell. She learned to scent the game and point at it for herself, but not quite like dog. A pointer dog when he has found game stands generally with one of his forepaws held up until his mas ter comes to him. Piggy, as soon as she was sure that she has found par fridge or hare or rabbit would drop on her knees and so remain for five minutes if necessary.
 Unfortunately, before her school master had time to teach her any fur ther accomplishments he died. His widow sent piggy to man with whom she lived for three years. But, alas! piggy did not escape the common doom of pigs. In the end she was shut in a sty, fattened, and made into bacon, as all her ancestors had been before her.

A Strange Sect.

Chincoteague islands strange sect called the Sanctifed band is losing members, but some colored persons of the sect are building church at Dags- boro, Del. Searching the Scriptures is esteemed an important duty by the band, and the exhorters find Biblical authority for making such searches in company with the sisters. Each man has what he calls his fellow watcher of the opposite sex, chosen by some sort of elective affinity, and usually another than his own wife, Great scandal has arisen in Chincoteague by reason of the doings of the Sanctifed band.

American fiag on the occasion Of the great
Columbian naval review in this port.
We cannot zee that II would do any harm
TO the good citizens OF Brooklyn. or detract
In the least from the prominence Of the
American flag. or American institutions, TO
permit the green banner Of Erin to hy from
the Flagstaff Of the Brooklyn City Hall on
Saturday next. Il would simply be cour-
teous recognition OF a strong sentiment
among those Brooklynites who happen TO
be Of Irish birth or extraction. and who for
the most part are as loyal to American In
stitutions as any other persons.
A similar courtesy might well be extended
TO the Germans. or italians, or French. or
English on any OF their particular holidays.
On distlnctively American holidays. how
ever. like the Fourth OF July. or WASHING
TONS Birthday. the display Of bunting on
the public buildings might well be confined
TO the American flag.
A little more sense and little less siren
uous rigor In matters OF this sort would be
conducive to public auletude. and save a
good deal OF discrimination and bitter feeling.

rand Transit.

We have not been inclined to give any
serious consideration to the plan OF rapid
transit proposed In the Rapid Transit Com
mission 10y Mr.. BUsHB OF that body. We
have believed that 1t was too preposterous
and impracticable to prevail; and We have
not at any time given credence to the
charges that it was secretly In the interests
of the Manhattan elevated railway system.
We have felt that. II these charges were
true. the fact could not long be concealed
and that thus the BUsHE plan must come
to naught by reason OF Its Inherent absurd
ity and rottenness.
1t has seemed to us that the BusHE plan
was sufficiently accounted for by the stu
pidity and ignorance OF the Rapid Transit
Commission. Since the only competent and
intelligent member that the Commission
ever possessed. resigned from 1t In disgust
there has been nothing In its history to
suggest that there could emanate from IL
anything partaking OF the nature of in
telligence or practical worth, The BUsHE
plan. therefore. Is merely characteristics.
and II Is superfluous as we'll as unjust to
impute dishonesty and imposture to any
OF the Commissioners.
The Commission has been dishonest
enough. but In another way. 1t has been
dishonest In its discharge OF the trust con-
fided to it by the public; dishonest in its
utter disregard OF the public welfare. In it's
reckless and wanton waste OF the money OF
the taxpayers. and in its conversion OF its
opportunities to selfish and personal
ends. Its perversion OF the purposes for
which it was created has finally led TO the
insane and yiciOuS daluEion which CONTAIN
plates the building by the city OF a system
OF tunnels. The bill whereby this piece OF
absurdity is TO be advanced and promoted.
has one redeeming kernel in all It's chan. It
sbolishes the Rapid Transit Commission.
This almost reeoneiles thoughtful citizens
to the passage OF the bill itself.

The Reign OF Terror in Paterson.

The silk dyers of Paterson struck for
higher wages on Monday. They were get
ting seven dollars a week and wanted nine I;
and. when this was refused, great part Of
them left work. Three OF their number.
however. were dismissed. because Mr..
WEIDMANN. their employer. believed them
to be Anarchists; and these three attacked
a number OF men who were willing to work.
cutting and bruising them. breaking the
jaw Of one man. beating another till he was
insensible. and tearing Off all his clothes.
At neighboring ribbon mill another riot
took place and the police were called In.
Hero the Mayor OF Paterson took sides
with the strikers. He did not think the
police ought to carry long night sticks and
revolvers. For the unquestionable fact
that number OF strikers were armed. he
had no condemnation to express.
Thus there seems to be n reign OF terror
In Paterson. The officers Of the law are
suppressed by rioters. and the Mayor is on
the side Of the lawless terrorists.
In such situation. robbery and murder
may appear to be supreme; but 1t is only q
temporary delusion. Life and liberty will
be protected by the law. In spite Of the
Mayor. But when business stagnation
leaves thousands on thousands OF workers
without work or bread. strikes like these
are hard to understand.

A Conflict Between Courts.

The City Court has just done very dis
creditabe thing in permitting two men
named RosINsKY to change their name to
ROSE. after the Court Of Common Pleas
OF this city had just refused the same
permission.
The facts have all been prominently
brought before the public by tho news
papers. Judge FITZsIMoNs OF the City
Court must have known perfectly well that
Judge PRYOR Of the Court OF Common Pleas
had declined to grant the application; yet
he granted 1t without comment or excuse.
1t Is this sort Of thing which brings the
administration Of justice into contempt.
II the RosISsKYs thought that Judge
PRYoR's decision In their case was errone-
Gus, their proper course was to appeal to
the General Term OF the Court OF Com
mon Pleas. II the statute permits such an
appeal. or to renew their application to
Judge PRYOR on different grounds, which
he might have thought sufficient.
II justice Is to be administered on one
principle In the Court OF Common Pleas,
and on another principle in the City Court
Of New York. 1t Is high time that one Of
these tribunals should be abolished.
To judge from the RosINsKY case. that
tribunal Is not the Court Of Common Pleas.

Da Gama's Blunder.

Admiral DA CANA made q fatal blunder
as soon as he assumed the leadership Of the
revolt In Brazil and took command OF the
insurgent fleet In the harbor of Rio In No
vember last. He was 80 confident of VIC
tory that he announced that the object
sought for In the revolt was the reestab-
lishment Of the empire! Allhope OF success
for his cause vanished with this short
sighted announcement. The sentiment
OF Brazil. in so far as that senti-
ment can be regarded as intelligent or pow
erful. Is republican. Ever since DA GAMA's
object was known the rebellion has been on
the decline. He afterward made a denial OF
the authenticity OF the imperialist proc
lamation issued under his name: and he
declared that 1t was his purpose TO take a
vote OF the people OF Brazil upon the ques-
ton OF tho form Of government desired by
them. But these things were very I'M
satisfactory; for. at the same time he
was carrying on intrigues with the heirs
OF the house OF BRAGASzA. and was
procuring funds from parties interest
cd In the fortunes OF that house. and
was favored In many ways by the small
but powerful faction OF imperiallsts In Bra
nil. who have never ceased to mourn over
the fall OF Dom PEDRO. In all these matters
DA CANA Numbered. though he had borne
high reputation as an officer of the Bra
lillian navy. The craftsmanship and the
brains OF Brazil are opposed TO the revival
Of the empire. which was forcibly over
thrown over four years ago.
At the outbreak OF the naval revolt half
year back. two months before DA CANA
Joined It,. there were many reasons to
think IL would end In triumph. There was
panic In Rio as soon as II was known that
all the naval ships belonging to the
Government had deserted at the COM
mand OF Admiral MELLo. who was
about to open fire upon the city.
There was very little faith among the au-
thorities In the loyalty OF the army. which
indeed had given dangerous evidence OF Its
untrustwoTthiness. There was civil war in
two OF the most populous OF the States.
There were hundreds OF ambitious polti-
clans DESTROYS OF any change that might
inure to their advantage, There was
widespread popular dissatisfaction with
the conduct of President PEnOTo. who
had been charged. perhaps justly.
with violating the Constitution. There
were eOnspiraeies at the capital under the
nose OF the President. who arrested his
enemies until the iAils could hold no more
OF them. Assuredly. there was reason for
thinking a half year ago that Brazil was
ripe for revolution. Besides oil. the MELLo
