Blow Mt Dramatic Piracy

Washington, Dec. 15.-The senate yes
terday agreed to the house amendments
to the copyright bill. which passed the
latter body last week. The measure now
goes to the president for his signature.
The bill makes the piracy OF a play a
misdemeanor, and an injunction granted
by a circuit judge under 1t is enforceable
all over the states. 1t will thus prevent
copyrighted plays from being produced
without the authorization Of the owners.
because an injunction granted in one
jurisdiction will be operative in every
other Jurisdiction of the United States.

SOME PAST INAUGURATI0Ns.

Some That Are Now History.

General Horace Porter Tells the Story OF
Some That Are Now History.
During Mark Hanna's recent visit TO
President Cleveland In Washington the
plans for the coming Inauguration Of Ma
ior Mckinley were discussed. Mr.. Cleve-
land manifested desire TO do everything
possible to make the event successful, and
spoke Of his own inaugurations and offered
some valuable suggestions.
Then General Porter told a story which
was new to all the gentlemen present. He
said that il was customary TO administer
the oath of Office to president elect at the
close of his inaugural address, and that
there had only been three exceptions. Two
OF these were Garfield and Cleveland at
tho beginning OF bis first term.
The other was General Grants first in
auguration. when the oath was admins
tered to him i'm the middle of his address
President Hayes was secretly sworn In by
Chief Justice Waite on Sunday at the
White House, where he was q guest of
President Grant.
This precaution was taken because Of
the excitement and the cloud upon his
title, for March came upon Sunday that
year, and il was feared that strict construc-
tionists might raise the question OF the
LEGALITY Of his inauguration on Monday,
the 9TH of March.
Mrs. Grant was nervsus about her hus-
bands inauguration. She had apprehen-
sions that something might happen TO him
before he was sworn in, which the general
treated with an unconcern that amounted
to levity. And General Porter says that
after he had taken the oath on the east
portico Of the capitol in the presence of
goo, 900 people, he turned around to Mrs.
Grant, who was sitting behind him, and
remarked in an undertone, Julia, are
you satisfied now?''
