and in ts2l he entered Williams College.
In les he began the study OF law, in
1928 was admitted to practice, and later
he settled in New York. where he was
conspicuous at the bar for more than
forty years. He was especially known
by his laOors in the cause OF law reform.
He published his first essay on the sub
ject in 1899, pointing out the necessity
of "a reconstruction of the modes OF
legal procedure. and he followed up this
first paper with other articles on the
same subject in 1872. 1874. 1916, and 1871.
IN the latter year he was appointed by
the LEGISLATURE Of New York a commits
sloner OF practice and pleadinSs, and as
such took the leading part In the prepara-
ton Of a code Of procedure. The design
Of the new system of civil procedure was
to ob!lterate the distinction. between the
forms of action and between legal and
equitable suits. so that all the rights Of
the parties in relation to the subjects Of
litigation could be determined In one ac-
ton. instead of dividing them as before
between different suits, often inconsistent
and always perplexing. The system was
adopted by New York. Ohio. Kentucky.
Missouri, Minnesota, California. Oregon,
and other States as well, and has mate
rally affected the legislation of Great
Britain and her colonies.
Mr.. Field was regarded as one of the
foremost lawyers of the world.

THE FEDERAL LEGISLATURE.
PETERS Platform Touching the Tariff
BnI-House still Ouorumlcss.


WASHINGTON, April 13.-SENATE.-
After some little routine morning busi-
ness. the consideration Of the urgent de-
flciency bill was resumed, and an amend
ment was offered by MIR. Cockrell, chair
man of the Committee on Appropriations,
appropriating $4,000 for the wages OF
WorkInen and adJustors AT the Philadel-
nhia mint In connection with IL, Mr..
Cockrell read a letter from MIR. Preston,
Director Of the Mint stating that the
deficiency is due solely TO the large COIN
age of gold required to meet the demands
of the Treasury. He gives the amount Of
gold coined at the Philadelphia mint since
.Iuly lst. at sol jl7, iSj; OF subsidiary sill
yer. S,l2SOJ0, and Of minor coins, SIVi,S5j.
Mr. Preston also says that there is
now OH hand at the Philadelphia mint
and at the New York assay Office about
$4,000 900 In gold bullion, OF which not
less than S20cJv,OO0 should be coined by
the lst of july next, which would make
the aggregate gold coinage OF the fhila-
delphia mint for tine year about SS2,OV0,OJJ-
the largest coinage ever executed at any
mint In any one year.
The amendment was agreed 10.
PEFFLk ) PLATFORM.
AT l o'clock tne tariff bill was taken
up and Mr. Fener continued his speech
on IL. giving the fourth instalment. He
concluded his speech IN about three quar-
tiers OF an noun, and, in closing, defined
the platform on which he stood as re-
gards the tariff biii. He was utterly
ouposed. he declared, to the modern sys-
TEN of protection, OF which the Mckinley
bill was an example lie would have
the House, either with the immediate
or the gradual wiping out Of the sugar
bounty. Il am ready for free trade
he said, "lf the rest Of US are: but as
long as my neighbors claim protection
for manufactures 1 shall claim protection
for the products of the farm. / am op-
posed TO the bill now before us
because it discriminates against the
people i represent. because II re-
moves the duty from the farmers
wool while retaining 1t on the manufac-
turer's cloth. and because. while L favor
the income-tax as n good step i'm that
direction, this bill does not go far enough.
The bill, taken as a whole DO not regard
as any improvement, on. the law now in
force, and as to wool and sugar 1t Is
much worse.
"If this Is the best sample of a tariff
bill that the Democrats can give US, | will
wait until the Populists come into power
How many votes. will be cast upon the
final passage OF the bill will depend on
what changes are made in the mean
time"

GOLD FOR FRANCE.
Shipments To-Day from New York Create
Much Comment.

NEW YORK, April iS.-It was announc-
ed in Wall street to-day that arrangements
had been made TO ship s5.2OO,ooo in gold
TO Fra-,ce on the steamer La GascoSne.
The shippers are Lazard Freres, A.@o.OOo;
Heideibach, Ickleheimer * Co., Soc.OO;
Ladenburg, Thalman & Co.. s5oO,ooJ; Bar
ing, Magoun * CO., $5oo.eoc, and Zimmer-
man & Forshay. $4,000. Lazard treres
obtained 81 10000 from bank and private
sources, and OF the balance $l.40o,o00 was
taken from the sub-treasury. The total
Withdrawals from the Treasury were
sl,900,c00, which was paid for In United
States notes at the request of Treasury
officials, who apparently did not desire
TO increase their already large stock or
Treasury notes.
The shipments being larger than ex-
pected, created good deal OF comment
and there was much theorizing as to the
reason for the movement.
