A PLACE FOR THE INSANE.

Another matter concerning penal
institutions was the report of the
Committee on Lunacy of the State
Board of Charities, in which a sug-
gestion was made for the isolation
of the convict and criminal insane.
The report says there are lis CON
victs who have gone insane since
Incarceration and 15S criminal in
sane persons in the States institu-
tions and the Board is of the opinion
that the Legislature should autho-
rize the construction of building
of moderate size upon the grounds
of one of the penitentiaries, to be
used for the hospital treatment of
the classes referred to. 1t is claim
cd that such building can be con-
structed for $25, 900 convict labor be-
ing employed, and that far better re-
suits would be obtained than under
the present system.

OF our government to avoid war by all

cepted as theless of two evils the course

partments at Washington, and to have
faith that the right will prevail"
1T has been intimated," says The

Curtailing Production.
MEETING TO BE HELD NEXT WEEK

Fall River. Mass. March 25.--Labor
union officials are deeply interested In
the trade situation. They feel that time
has shown the wisdom of their sugges-
tion to the manufacturers last December
to postpone action until March. saying
that had that been done. the mills would
have been better or than they are today.
when there Is talk Of curtailment.
The concensus OF opinion among the
members OF the spinners' committee was
that the Dingqey tariff bill is seriously
interfering with the trade with foreign
countries. 1t was shown that the ex-
ports of cotton goods TO the South
American countries during the last year
have fallen or considerably. The COM
mitteemen thought that IL II had not
been for the restrictive tariff against
the products OF South American coun-
tries there would not have been such
stagnation In the cotton industry OF this
country at the present time. The ques-
ton OF curtailing production was also
discussed. and the committee expressed
the hope that the national union at it's
semi-annual meeting next month would
take some action towards bringing about
n general curtailment this summer.
Curtailment, 1t was urged. is the only
remedy for the stagnant condition of
the market.
Secretary Tansey OF the carders and
president Of the operatives conference
committee will probably call the com
mittee together next week with view of
formulating a policy to pursue in the
event OF action by the manufacturers.
Some of the members of the committee
are anxious for a meeting to discuss the
situation. 1t is hardly probable the
operatives will ask for curtailment.
though the mills unquestionably will be
stopped before the end Of the summer.

rington who has been prcstrated by
the terrible heat to which he has been
subjected during his long stay in Gu

Lieutenant Commander W. H. Ev-
erett. commanding the lighthouse ten
der Mangrove. has also succumbed to
the hardships of the Cuban blockade.
Both officers have been removed to the
naval hospital at Key West for treat
ment.
The assignment of Captain Rodgers
to the Puritan leaves a vacancy in the
command of the cruiser Philadelphia,
now fitting out at San Francisco for
service on the Pacific station. to which
he was originally assigned several
weeks ago. In view of the reported
desire of Captain CrOwninshield, chief
of the bureau of navigation. for sea
duty, it is not improbable he may be
given the command of the Philadel-
phia. 1t is expected that she will go
into commission at the Mare island
navy yard on the LIST proximo.

A dispatch from Chicago states that
DR.. D. Is. Pearson has undertaken to
give the Salt Lake college $5G,0G0 upon
The condition that its officers raise $780,,
coo more within a year. a representa-
tive of the Herald conversed yesterday
with Hon. F. B. Stephens as TO the
possibility of raising the money con-
tingent upon the stated gift and he is
of the opinion that the money cannot
be raised, which fact would deprive the
institution of funds so much needed.
A project has recently been on foot to
unite the Salt Lake college and the
Collegiate Institute here, the Congre-
gational people conss1ting to repre-
sentatiCn of eight trustees on the board,
while the Presbyterian society should
have ten. This was unsatisfactory to
Dr. Sheldon Jackson, and the proposed
of the two colleges will
probably not be made.
