In the House.

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-Senats bill
granting right-of-way 20 the Eastern Ne
braska and Gulf railway through the
Omaha and Winnebsgo Indian reservs-
ton, in the state of Nebraska, was passed
The anti-options bill was then launched
upon It's congressional voyage. Mr.. Hatch
opened the debate with speech in favor
OF the bill.
When MIR. Hatch's time expired. Mr.
Warner Dem delivered vigorous speech
against the measure.
Mr. Bryan of Nebraska considered the
senate bill to prevent gambling IN farm
products and it was unjust To his consti-
tutentS (who were mainly farmers) that
the other men should have the right to
affect the price of their product as if they
had taken the risk OF rain and draught
and grasshoppers and chintZ bugs. There
was no difference between the action of
the burglar who went to a mans home
and robbed him of his goods, and the &C
ton of the man who on the stock exchange
drove down the price of another mans
product and thus deprive him of so much
50 which he was justly entitled.

Hsw BABY Amused Itself and Others 60
the street Car.
It was q very cunning little child,
inst beginning TO talk, says the New
York Herald, and its mother manipu-
lated it so as to show its sweetness to
the best advantage for the rest Of tho
passengers. The LADY who sat beside
the mother on the cross scat of the car
SMILED at it, the woman opposite
chirped at it, the man across the aisle
let It play with his cane. Amid all
these attentions the little one crowed
and laughed and squirmed around in
the very ecstasy Of pleasure.
Every now and then, however, the
child turned toward the lady next 10 it
and regarded her with fixed admira
ton. Finally 1t put out its chubby
hand and cautiously felt hsr nose
through her veil. Then everybody
looked az the nose and saw that il was
very red. Conscious Of this observa.
ton the woman with the hose got red
cheeks and red neck. The nose in
the meantime lighted up Like a beacon,
greatly to the delight of the baby. who
grabbed at it under the impression.

ored up for It's especial enjoyment

the same time to take hold of the
nose.
The unfeeling man with whose cane
the baby had been playing grinned as
he picked up the discarded stick and
the mother tried 70 choke the baby of
with kisses. The other women smiled
sweetly-su but the woman with the
red nose. She was mad enough to bite

nose was the prettiest aud most de-

red nose once more, to the equal dis
comfture OF the owner of the nose and
the owner of the baby. At that point
the woman with the Rose arose and
made FOR the door, the baby began to
yell with disappointment, and the
spectators laughed merrily.

WASHINGTON, June 1S-Mr. Hill moved
in the senate today TO place coal on the
free list. and made a speech in support of
free coal and the redemption of Demo
cratic pledges. 1t was useless for him, he
said, 70 enter into lengthy argument. He
simply wanted to call the attention of his
Democratic colleagues TO the fact that the
country expected Democratic congress
in any tariff reform measure TO place coal
on the free list
During the course of his remarks Senator
Chandler interrupted Senator Hill, ex-
pressing the opinion that coal would be on
the free list before the bill became law,
basing his opinion on the 'serene conf
dence" felt by the Nova Scotia syndicate
with which Mr.. Whitney was connected.
Mr.. Hill declared he was opposed 10 GER
tain features Of the bill, the socialist and
Populistic income tax in particular. but
no one. he declared, had a right to say he
was opposed to the bill and was seeking TO
compass its defeat. God knows what the
bill be like when it passes the senate and
comes out OF conference" said he passion
ately. God knows how many more ex-
tortions and concessions will be wruns
from the unwilling hands of the COM
nlttee. L reserve the right to vote for It
or not when see what it is as a finality."
Mr.. Squire, on behalf of the Washington
coal interests, thought it was unfair to
admit Canadian coal at 40 per cent when
Canada charges 90 per cent on coal i'm
ports.
Mr.. Perkins explained that he should
refrain from voting on this photographic be-
cause ne had personal interest N coal
mines on the Pacific coast.
A vote was taken on Mr.. HIPS amend
ment at $3.50 and it was LOST to 81.
Messrs KYLE, Allen PETER. (Populists),
Hill and Irby (Democratsl, and Hans
brough aud Washburn (Republinsns),
voted in favor OF the motion.
The finance committee amendment
placing duty OF 40 per cent on bitumin-
Gus coal or CUM that will pass through a
half inch screen was then agreed To.
Mr.. Vest proposed a series of increases
of the duties on gloves which were agreed
to without objection.
The miscellaneous schedule was COM
pleted without obstruction, and at els the
senate adjourned.
