being those for which the ore s sold
at such a port. The selling prices of
Nesaba ores at lower lake ports, on sea-
sol. contracts. were as follows in 1894
and 1895: No. l Bessemer, 81. so per
ton: No. Bessemer 81 10; non-Bessemer,
$1.75.
1t was expected that with an increase
of the output and the working of depos-
is hitherto untouched in the Mesaba
range. the prices OF Mesaba ore would
be reduced; but it now appears that they
are to be increased by about 60 per cent.
According to the latest reports, it s the
purpose of the new combination, which
includes the owners Of Mesaba mines, to
make a uniform price Of 81 per ton for
Bessemer ores, with some slight varia-
tons due 10 differences in quality. SO
,hat the iron makers, instead of getting
Mesaba Bessemer for 81. 80 or less will
have 10 pay in the ne,ghborhood Of 81
for it. TIE discovery Of those enormous
quantities of ore hat can be taken out
for a few cents per ton. therefore, will
not be Of very much service to the IRON
industry and the people at present, al
though it may largely increase the
wealth of a few men.

PROTECTION FOR LONDON WIVES.

An act for the protection Of married
women wen, into effect in London few

put the London husband on his good
behavior. No sooner had it gone into
effect than at least half a dozen appl-
cations under 3, Wee disposed Of in the

ions the husband viii be called on to
support the Wife. unless the divorce court
settles that -paration IS best for both
parties.
Un-il this new act was assured, the
British wife was quite helpless, if her
husband left her. or if he would not
work for their mutual maintenance.
lie might be able-bod.ed and lazy, or
he might belong to that class of ind
vidu3ls Who merely marry for home,
and deem they confer an honor on the
woman by making her support him;
but. in either case. the magistrates will
have it in their power to protect those
wives who rebel at such an unequal state
Of affairs. The new act does not en-
courage wives to leave their husbands
improperly. nor to discourage them from
doing so where the mischief that the
legislature intended to remedy exists.
Blu, it simply insists on the non-suppor-
ter supporting, as ne has avoided doing
in the past.
One of the applications came, not
from O wife, bu, a husband. who asked
what be could do With a wife who was
a mos, disagreeable companion. The
magistrate explained to the unhappy
man that, while he was not bound TO
live with such a woman as ne alleged
her to be. this new act had no new
message of relief for him. For once it
is the neglected and the abused woman
who is TO receive benefit through the
law. London social agitators have
been deeply Interested in the success of
this new act, which they believe will
afford relief to the oppressed, and rem
edy some of the long existing and flag
rant abuses permitted by English law.

ing
The House adopted the report of the

brought for his seat by Timothy j.

A joint resolution was adopted to eX-
tend the time for the completion of an
incline railroad on West Mountain, Hot
Springs reservation park.
AIR. LOrimer (Rep., U.inOis) asked
unanimous consent for the considera-
lion of the Senate resolution authOriz-
ing the use Of $4,000 of the appropria-
ton for the Chicago public building for
the employment of architectural aid in
the preparation of plans for that build
ing. The sundry civil bill last year
carried $4,000 for this purpose, and
$4,000 was carried as an exorbitant
amount for the plans.
Mr.. Lorimer said that $4,000 was but
12s per cent. of the entire cost Of the
building. and he considered the charge
reasonable.
Mr. Crisp thought if this practice were

architect Of the treasury should be

would not be best TO allow the archi-
tecrs Of the country to erect all public
buildings. The resolution was amend
ei so as TO provide that the appropria-
ton should cover the supervision of the
construction of the building. and as
amended 70 was agreed to-.

the National American Woman Suf-
frage Association will begin tomorrow
at the Church of Our Father.
The convention will last through next
Tuesday, with a religious service at the
church next Sunday, which will be

rule less time will be devoted to the
reading of papers on general subjects
connected with the suffrage movement
than heretofore and more time will be
given to the actual business of the as
ISOLATION. Miss Anthony, Mrs Harriet
Taylor Upton, Mrs Carrie Chapman
Gait. and a number of other women
who have for years been actively iden-
tilted with the suffrage movement are
already here. They speak of the COM
ing convention in the most enthusiast
tic manner. and, with woman suffrage
steadily gaining ground, especially in
the Western States. they consider that
the outlook for the future is brighter
and more encouraging than il has ever
been since the question of giving wo-
man the right of ballot was first raised
in the country.
Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton. the
veteran honorary president of the asso-
citation, will not be able to attend the
sessions of the convention. but she has
promised Miss Anthony that she would
