That "HoOdOOad" Cargo.

The special cargo Of lumber for the
Brooklyn navy yard is at last on board
of the schooner Jerome B. Look, which
Will undertake the somewhat doubtful
task of taking 1t to Its destination.
So many mishaps have befallen this
particular cargo that all sorts of
gloomy predictions are being made by
the shipping men as to the probable
fats of the schooner Look and of the
gunboat Nashville, which is expected
today to tow the schooner.

Afraid of the Tea Tax and In.
crease on Beer.
Republican Caucus Decides to
Withdraw These Items.
DODGE TRUST FEATUR
No Antitrust Amendment Will
be Reported.
Compromise ON a Tax on Bond
and Stock Sales.

Washington, July 2.-The Republican
senators held what they decided should
be their last caucus on the tariff bill
last night. The meeting continued for
more than three hours, and was produc-
tive of important results, which were
not reached without the display of con-
siderable feeling. Among the points
decided were the following: To report
no antitrust amendment, to withdraw
the original finance committee provis-
ions for duty on tea and an increase
of A cents per barrel in the tax on beer
and to provide for a tax on bond and
stock transa ctions.
The greater part of the time was CIV
en- to the proposition for a provision
against trusts.
The committee had held a meeting
during the afternoon at which the
whole question was gone over at length
with other Republican senators includ-
ing MessrS. Hanna and Chandler. 1t
was then decided that it would be eX-
tremely difficult to secure legislation
that would be effective and that upon
the whole IL was inpOlitiC and unWiSe
to undertake it. A report was made
accordingly to the caucus and a resolu-
tion adopted authorizing the presenta-
ton of an amendment providing in ex-
press terms for the continuance in ef-
feet of the terms of the Wilson law
which makes it unlawful to form a
trust in imported articles.
This report called out some vigorous
protests especially on the part of west
ern senators but they We're replied to
with spirit. 1t was asserted among 9TH
er things that the presentation of a
new antitrust provision would lead to
a long debate which could not be af-
forded at the present time. The sue
cess of the proposition to recede from
the increased tax on beer and the tenn
porary duty on tea led to a quite pro-
lOnged discussion of the amount of rev.
enues the bill would yield. Many SEN
ators expressed the opinion that the
volume would not be equal to the de-
mandS OF the government. 1t was in
response to this view that determnia-
ton was reached to provide for a tax
on stock and bond transa ctions. The
details of this scheme were not agreed
upon, but were left to the finance COM
mittee to perfect.
There was decided opposition to a tax
on ordinary bank checks or mortgages
1t appeared during the discussion of
this branch of the subject that the
committee had been supplied with esti-
mates of the revenue the bill would
produce made by Mr.. w. c. Ford who
had given the opinion that with an
equal volume of imports the bill would
produce during the first year of its op-
Grafton more than 800, 600, 900 in re-
turns.
Senator Allison said, however that
these figures were mislea ding as the
import could not be expected OF be so
large, and advised his fellow senators
on this account not to accept them as
any indication of the possibilities of the
bill.

LYNCH law INVALID.
Persons Injured in Riots Cannot Re-
cover Damages in Ohio

Cleveland, July 2.-Judge Disse1t of
the common pleas court has decided
the Smith lynch law invalid. The law,
more properly speaking, is a riot law
permitting persons injured in riot to
recover from the county 1t went be-
fore the court in the form of a damage
suit brought by ]. w. Caldwell against
the county to recover damage for in
jury received at the Brown hoiSting
and conveying machine strike. The
court did not hold the law making
counties and municipalities liable for
property destroyed by mObs unconstitu-
tional. He held that the legislature
had the right to enact laws to protect
both persons and property. He held,
however, that the conviction and pun
iShment of the offenders should be a bar
to the recovery of any damage. He
thought it more logical to invest the
commissioners with authority to pre-
vent riots before passing a, law making
the county liable for injuries. How
ever the serious defect lies in the word
ing of the law, fixing damages abso-
lutely at $500 for slight injuries and
81, 600 for serious injuries inflicted by a
mob.
The court held that two or three per
sons may constitute a mob and that the
law opened up a way to innumerable
damage suits against the county. More
over, it placed the damages beyond the
jurisdiction of a jury and the amount
of damages would likely be altogether
out of proportion to the injuries in
fiicted. The law was therefore decreed
invalid and unconstitutional.
