Another illustrious name is that of
Dion Boucicault, the noted actor whose
revival of Irish comedy and imperson-
atoms of Irish character enriched the
stage a decade ago. He was a prince
of good fellows, endowed with many of
the eccentric yet lovable qualities
which he infused into his plays and his
acting. Irish life and character have
never been staged more realistically
and at the same time more artistically
than by this genial Irishman.

Chicago, April IA combination of
favorable crop reports, weak cables and
an absence of important trading made
d very dull and weak market of wheat
to-day, July closing at a decline of
about a cent. The closing of the for
eign exchangses until after the Easter
holidays undoubtedly had some effect
on the volume of trading done. Every
thing else on the floor was weak, part

Corn closed 1ac lower, oats 1s@Ac

Michigan crop report was perhaps the
most important factor. That report
gave the wheat condition at SO, the
highest April figures since 1891. Liver
pool showed decline of about Esd,
and continental markets were equally
weak. The fear OF damage to winter
wheat by frosts, which has lowered
over the market for several days, was
effectually dissipated by the higher
temperatures now prevailing through
out the west. About the only crumb
of comfort the bulls were given was
the figures on the Northwest receipts,
which showed considerable falling

scalpers satisfied with recent profits,
but the majority of traders were on
the selling side. Liquidation by dis
couraged longs was quite marked for
time. and there was some active short
selling as well. For nearly two hours
the course of the market was steadily
downward, varied occasionally by
small fraction rallies as shorts came in

THE SYSTEM is 1T FAULT
Object Lessons Afforded by Ohio
and Maryland.
Movement To Elect Senator'S by
Popular Vote May Be Given
an Impetus

The Administration has evidently
transferred its energies from Ohio to
Maryland. Mr.. Hanna has at last been
elected, and now it will be possible to
go ahead and fill up the vacant FEEDER
al offices in Ohio, and in other ways
10 try to heal the wounds which the
prolonged Senatorial contest has left
gaping. But in Maryland the fight is
only just beginning. The President is
Row serving notice upon visiting dele
cations from that State that he will
make no appointments to Office until
the Senatorial fight is over: this will be
a very considerable inducement to the
hungry politicians to get together"
The three Senatorial elections this
year, when completed, will add some
testimony of a practical sort of the
long-standing question whether our
constitutional method of choosing
United States Senators is wise one.
Three States this year were called up
on to choose Senators. In Virginia the
Democrats possessed almost the entire
legislature. and there had been no Sc
rious opposition from the start TO Sen
ator Daniels reelection. In those cir
cumstances, with no contest as to the
candidates within the party, and no
contest in the legislature between the
parties everything went of very
smoothly. and Mr. Daniel was re-elect-
ed after the manner which the FOUNDERS
of the Constitution had in mind. But
in Ohio and Maryland the situation has
been far different.
The struggle in Ohio will contribute
very largely to giving the control or
the next House. OF Representatives. If
Mr.. Hanna could have been elected on
the same day with Gov. Bushnell, the
controversy would have ended; he
would have been able to come to
Washington to attend to business; Re-
publican politicians in Congressional
and departmental service could have
passed the winter in Washington IN
stead OF having to put in month at
Columbus, and the charges OF bribery
and corruption. which must now be
Y. EARLY dragged through. would have
been avoided Mr.. Hanna was Just
as much the convention nominee of his
party by the present arrangement as
if the election had been conSumnated
on the I'd of November. But the added
machinery of a legislative election has
engendered an amount of facuonai
warfare which will seriously interfere
with Republican prospects in that
State.
Doubtless the popular vote system
would have its objections, but 1T can
no longer be denied that the system OF
choosing Senators by the State legls-
Iatures is fruit of much that Is pad-
Those persons who argue in favor OF
change are certainly able to point to
the fact that the constitutional meth

more to say in behalf of Cuba before
the debate is closed.
Mr.. Adams, of Pennsylvania, was the
next speaker. His argument was in
line with that of Mr.. Hit, he taking
the ground that there was no reason
for speedy action, as Spain had met all
the demands made by the United States
for the Cubans. He intimated that the
Administration was thoroughly salts
fled with what the Madrid government
had done for its colony.
Then, 1 suppose that we are to in
fer that the Administration is now
friendly to Spain in this struggIe?''
asked Mr.. SulZer.
Mr.. Adams did not reply to the ques-
ton.
Mr.. Berry, of Kentucky. another
member of the committee, followed Mr..
Adams He urged prompt action by
the House in recognizing the patriots
cause
The danger of war through recegni-
ton of Cuban belligerency does not
scare me-" said Mr.. Berry. In fact,
from all that / can hear believe a war
would be a good thing for us.
Those people fighting for liberty de-
serve our immediate help, and | think
that it is the duty of this body. repre-
senting a republic, to go to their rescue.
let the consequences be what they
may"
Mr. Berry said that he hoped that
the day was not far distant when a
flag like the Stars and Stripes over the
Speakers desk would wave over MORO
Castle
Mr. Berry gave a part OF his time
to Mr.. Wheeler, of his State who spoke
up to the time of adjournment He
pleaded for the rescue of Cuba from
the hands of the Spanish.
