qua Canal The first was a case OF a
bird in the hand" the second n case
of n bird in the bush" If the PROPOSE
t!on made in the pending bill were
made to the British Parliament the re-
ply. he said, would be you have no
right to make the transfer. That Is for
bidden by the terms of your own con-
tract. DO you think that we are going
TO give you hundred million dollars
for corpse and then have to bury 1t at
our own charge"
NO CONCLUSION REACHED.
When Mr.. Turpie closed his speech an
effort was made by Mr. Morgan, In

hour fixed for taking the vote, but objec-
tion was made both by Mr.. Turpie and
Mr. Villas. Finally, as a vote by yeas
and nays showed the absence OF a

HIS SISTERS PLEA,

Rosie O'Grady Begged Judge KIM
ball for Her Brothers Release
Edward O'Grady has a sister, and 1t is
reasonable to infer that she is of affection
ate disposition from her demeanor today
in the Police Court. Rosie is her name.
She is a dainty little maiden, and the SYM
pathy of all the officials and spectators
was with her when she burst into tears
and wept as though her heart would break
as Judge Kimball fined Edward IS for dis
orderly conduct.
This young man was draining beer kegs
last evening in front of a saloon on F.
street. stated Policeman Hanley. 1.-The
liquor affected him that he later acted
In a very disorderly manner"
Rosie took the stand and made an earn
est plea for her brother. He is the sole
support of herself and mother she said,
and the temptation for him to drink the
beer was great.
"A young man of his age should be able
to resist such temptation" remarked the
court. HE will have to pay a fine of s5."
The little lady then commenced to cry,
and left the room In apparently deep dis
tress.
