Managing Wife Heaters.

In Germany they manage wife-beaters
with an artless severity that seems much
more sensible and practical than the Della
ware whipping post fashion When a
man is convicted of beating his wife he
is allowed to continue his work is looked
after by the police, and arrested every
Saturday and locked up until Monday
morning. when he is again delivered oyer
to his employer. His wages are given to
his wife. If he won't work he is taken to
Jail where he has to work harder than
outside. The more one studies this plan
the more sensible il seems.

FIELD LOOMING UP.
He May Be Collector Of Internal
Revenue.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, March 16. = c. W.
Field, the Minneapolis candidate for
collector of internal revenue. seems to
be developing unexpected strength. He
did not enter the contest until March 1,
and nobody dreamed he had any sort of
prospect when he appeared on the
ground, but recommendations from
some of the strongest business interests
of the state are pouring into the treas
Ury department and Mr.. Field is much
encouraged. Maj. Baldwin, having sat.
isfied himself that Capt. Harries has no
possible chance, has now placed him.
self squarely behind Mr. Field and
urges the secretary to appoint him.
This. combined with strong indorse :
ments from his old home in Kentucky,
makes Mr.. Field more than mere pos
sibility. The president makes no sign
as yet concerning the district attorney
ship, and friends OF Mr. McCafferty in
Washington draw considerable inspira-
ton OF hope from the delay. Secretary
Carlisle said Wednesday that they
hoped to shake down all the Minnesota
appointments and dispose of them this
week. 1t is not improbable that they
were settled at today's cabinet meeting.
but, If so, they will not be announced
before Monday, as there is no session of
the senate before that date. Before
leaving, Mr.. DOran assured his friends
that he had secured good, fair job in
one OF the departments for his old
friend Robert Miller, former Mime
Sotan, but now resident of Georgia.

WASHINGTON, March 16.-Senators
representing both the Democratic and
Republican sides of the senate commit
tee on finance expressed the opinion at
the close of the committee meeting to-
day that the bill would be reported to
the senate on Tuesday. They stated,
however, that no agreement to this
effect had been entered into, but that
the opinion was the result of knowledge
of the progress that had been made
upon the bill since the full committee
has been in possession of it. The entire
time of the meeting. which continued
from 10 a. IN. till $3.50 p. m, was devoted
to the point relating to collecting the
revenue in both the tariff and the in
ternal revenue reports. but it was an
noanced at the close that this part of
the work had been practically CON-
Dieted. Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Hamblin was again with the
committee during the afternoon for the
purpose of making suggestions and
answering questions to the opera
ton of various provisions of the bill,
bearing upon its administration by
the department. When the Republican
members of the committee withdrew
the Democratic members went into cor
sultatlon upon the suggestions made by
the Republican members. They had
discussed with the Republicans the
points made by them in full committee,
Dat found 1t necessary to hold party
conference before announcing decis-
Ions. There are some indications that
several changes will be made in accord
ance with the opinions advanced, and
| one OF the Republican members of the
committee stated this evening that he
thought the changes suggested by them
would be adopted, which would, he said.
leave the administrative part of the bill
very similar to the Mckinley law
in this respect. The committee will
take up the bill at its meeting to-
morrow. The appearances now are
that the bill will have quite a
large number of changes which they
will agree upon. These changes will
| include the transfer of a number of
articles to the free list which were made
dutIable in the senate bill before the
sugar duty had bee1 agreed upon. The
treasury department estimates make it
appear that the bill will give a larger
revenue than would be needed by the
government, which will afford the COM
mittee an opportunity to make greater
| number of articles free than would have
been possible if the sugar duty had not
been imposed. 1t is understood that
the committee has under consideration
a suggestion looking to a proposition
for check upon the valuations of i'm
ports made by New York appraisers by
amending the bill so as to require that
all invoices shall be sent to the treasury
department at Washington.
