AETI.scALpIEG Bill,

Is Sui Jtcted 10 Another Dissection BEFORE
The Interstate Commerce.
WASHINGTON. D. c., Jan. 1.-The,
house Interstate commerce commission
gave another hearing on the anti-scalp-t
Ing bill to-day. Mr.. George w. Boyd,
assistant general passenger agent OF
the Pennsylvania railroad, made a very
strong argument in favor OF the bill.
He asserted that there was no more
ncfarlous traffic in the country to-day
than that OF the scalping fraternity,
and that 80 per cent OF the tickets lost
or stolen from railroads find their way
Into the scalpins Offices and thence into
.publlctuse. He said the assertion that
95 per cent OF the tickets used by scalp
ers were furnished direct by the rail-
roads was very misleading. There was
q very small percentage, probably not
IS per cent, and certainly there was
very little business in securing tickets
direct from any reputable railroad.
Mr.. Boyd concluded by saying that
the scalpers' existence cannot be justi-
fled and that the very first principle
of the scalper's trade is his ability to
sell transportation lower than the issu
Ing company, which bears on Its face
the stamp OF dishonesty, especially
when this standard Is reduced to the
minimum and regulated by sharp COM
petition.
Milford Spohn. OF Washington, repre-
senting the Building Trades Council
and the Central Labor Union, appeared
in opposition to the bill. He said that
all the. labor organizations OF the coun-
try had taken a position against the
bill. He claimed that in doing this they
were representing the people at large,
and not the ticket brokers-in defense
Of the principle that n man has right
to buy where he pleases and to sell
where he pleases.
Paul E. Morton. of Chicago. third vice
president OF the Atch!son, Topeka s;
Santa Fe road. said that II the dIscrim-
ination not allowable In passenger bus
mess continued 1t would naturally be al
lowable In freight business. Now, how
ever, there are, few IL any violations OF
the Interstate commerce so far: as II
relates to freight business.
Senator Tillman asked about the
Standard on Company, and Mr.. Morton
replied, thatithc Standard Oil Company
was one of the big corporations of the
country that had taken no rebate on
its business from the railroads since
1887. George w. Boyd. assistant gem
cral passenger agent Of the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad, made brief statement
similar to that which he presented to
the house committee

The Many Exciting Exigencies he May
Unconsciously Bring About.
The free-from-care and ease-taking
old bachelor, who In his momentary
lapse OF wisdom contemplases matrimo-
ny, should at the game time reflect on
the remote but contingent possibility OF
his having to some time sleep with q
baby should he marry. Years OF expert
ence OF this martyrdom make me feel It
to be my duty TO set forth the misery
arising from q contingency OF this kind.
The baby, II he happens to be L lusty
little fellow OF eight or ten months, will
decline to Stay covered, and will also de-
cline 20 allow you to keep yourself COW
cred. He indicates his wishes In this
direction by keeping his little pink heels
going all night, good part OF the time
on your back. =.
He will also insist on lying "crosswtse."
''endwlse." cat-a-cornered," bias" or
in any other position, but changes each
after few minutes sleep. His inrantilc
needs will begin to manifest themselves
at about o'clock in the morning. at
which witching hour you will 60 blum
derlng round In the dark for drink Of
water. 81
He Will howl steadily and C!!eerfully
from until o'clock. and will kick you
furiously between the shoulder blades

Papa's baby doesn't want anything but
to howl, and he is gratifying that amia-
BILE desire TO the utmost.
1t Is OF no use to add 10 your list OF
enormities BY strong language. And IL

FOUR NEGROES LYNcHEp.
rwo were yMurlerers and Two Had

Two We're EMurderers and Two Had
Assaulted Women. a
LITTLE ROCK, Ark Jan. 9.-Four
negroes have been lynched in the VI
entity Of Bearden, Arkansas. within the
last few days. Two were charged with
assaulting women, and two were muir
.derers. The former, Devoe and Hunt
lev, were strung up near Harlow Mill
ranch. ahoutlthree niles north OF Bear
den. while the miirderers met their fate
near Little Bay, a few miles south of
Bearden. The work was done by two
separate mobs.
Devoe and Huntley were Iynched for
a crime committed year ago. At that
time they attempted a criminal assault
on q Mrs. Paine, respectable white
woman at Bearden. Both negroes es-
capped and remained out OF the vicinity
for twelve months. a few days ago De-
Voc again put in an appearance. but
was promptly arrested. A mob was
quickly formed and Devoe barely es-
capped lynching az that time.
On the stand he stated that Huntley
was working at .Andersons Mill. Devoe
was left In charge OF u heavy guard
near Bearden, while the remainder OF
the. mob went to .Anderson's NH to get
Huntley. They found their man and
started away with him, but they never
reached Bearden with the negro.
He was lynched after leaving Ander-
sons Mil. When the mob returned to
Bearden they gave out the report that
Huntley could not be found. Devoe was
then placed In wagon, and the mob
started withIhim to Harlow Mill ranch,
SO that his victim might identify him.
He was then strung up.
The two other men lynched were ac-
cused ofithe murder OF Bart Frederick,
at Kingsland q few days ago. Freder-
ick's pockets were riiled and his watch
taken. Three negroes were captured and
two were hanged. The third was want
ed at Kingsland on another charge. and
was turned ove: to the sheriff OF Cleve-
land! county. s.: 49, q III

 The newspaper dispatch boats, which had been steaming back and forth among the transports since the arrival of the latter, were held at every stage of their passage with the request to take letters to the nearest point an- nouncing the arrival of the army.
 According to the naval regulations established at the outbreak of the war not a light was visible on any of the ships and the cordon of men-of-war lying under the Spanish guns near Morro Castle kept their vigil with more than usual care during the dark hours of the night to guard against the ap- proach of a destroying torpedo boat which might attempt to run out of the harbor and with one we'll directed shot sink troopship in the depths of the sea and send the souls of those aboard into the realms of eternity.
