Washington, April 25.-There
will not be quorum in the senate
during the present week owing to
the absence of many senators
in New York in attendance upon
the ceremonies over General
Grants tomb. Consequently no
business of importance will be
transacted. Probably majority
of the senator's desire to adjourn
from Thursday again until Mon
day, without transacting any busi-
ness of general moment, and this
program is likely to be followed
if the wish Of the Republican
members of the finance committee
is acceded to. The tariff bill Will
be reported Thursday, but it is
most probable that this will be
postponed until next week. The
work of preparing for the reorgan-
ization of the senate ittees
will proceed informally. Under
the arrangement made on Friday,
the house will transact no busi-
ness this week. The house will
meet formally tomorrow and ad-
jorn until Thursday. when an ad-
iournment will be taken until
Monday.

again at Deaths door from an A.
tack of hiccoughs.
She is a pretty eigh!ern-year-old
girl, the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
B. Trautmann. A year ago last
month she was first stricken with
her afiiction, and fo rthree months
there was no cessation of the
spasms. Every known remedy was
tried, and finally DR.. WHITEHEAD,
of Elizabeth, secured a Faradie
battery of high power, and the
continued use of electricity caused
them to in g. measure cease. Miss
Trautmann then went to Washing
ton, D. c., for a change OF air,
and she there fully recovered. Her
return home caused the spasms to
occasionally return, but not uni
recently have they become severe
Now she is in as bad a condition as
year ago, and all hopes of her re-
covery have been given up. She is
very weak from the continued
strain OH her nervous system. Last
year a hypnotist of New York
worked over her, but she would not
yield to that influence.
The young lady has now become
very despondent and refufes to
take medicine. Her appetite is
good, the only thing which is in
her favor, in her fight for life. Un-
less something is done at once for
the sufferer she will die. Last year
she received over 10000 letters
giving cures for hiccoughs, but
none of them availed. Miss Trant-
mann has FIVE hundred of these
letters yet, all from we'll known
people from all parts of the globe.
Her case was commented on then

THAT INJUNCTION.

We clip he following from one
of our exchanges: Chief Justice
Fuller has granted an order res.
training the further organization
of Bamburg County on the ground
that the State law confning the
vote on new counties to the popu.
lation included in the area pro-
posed to be cut off, instead of al.
lowing al the voters of the county
to vote, is contrary to the Consttu-
tion of the United States. The
order is made of force until the
question can be heard Oh its merits.
1t is not stated what pro-
vision of the Constitution of the
United States is violated by the
State law referred to, and we can
recall none at this time with which
that law is even seemingly in con-
fict, except the first section of
Article XIV of the amendments,
in which it is provided that no
State shall deprive any citizen of
the equal protection of the laws.
1t may be claimed, and with ap-
parent reason, that all the citizens
of a county share the benefits and
the burdens arising from their
political association as citizens of
such county. and that to permit
the dissolution Of such association
without permitting some of the
citizens of the whole part affected
to have a say-so is not good law
or common sense.
