As our readers are aware Congress-

probably rs close to Senator Hanna

Senate Amendments to Hay-Pauneefote
Treaty Returned with Decisive Veto
by King Edward,s Government.

Washington, March 12.-The long
expected answer from the British
government to the state departments
communication reciting the action of
the senate upon the Hay-PauncefOte
treaty was returned at noon Mon
day. Lord Pauncefote, the British
ambassador, acquainted Secretary Hay
that the British government did not
see its way clear to the acceptance
of the senate amendments. There
was nothing in the nature of a coun-
ter proposition, nor was any opening
left for further action by the British
government. 1t was stated if there
is to be a further attempt to amend
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, so as to
authorize the United States to coz
struct a waterway across the isthmus.
then it is for the United States to
make the overtures. The British gov
eminent simply drops the matter at
this point.
For the present the text of the
British answer will be withheld from
publication, on this side of the water
at least, though 1T is said that after
the president has thoroughly consid-
cred the matter some general state
ment may be made as to the points
developed.

Utah Legislature Passes Laua That WIN
Permit the ResunptIon OF Plural
EIarrlages-

Salt Lake City, March 13.-Yester-
day, three days before the legisla-
ture comes to a close, the house, by
a vote of p to IL, and after an excit-
ing debate In which more than a
dozen members participated, passed
the Evans senate bill, amending that
portion OF the revised statutes Of
Utah relating to prosecutions for
adultery. Having passed the senate
last week by a vote Of II to z, TIE
document now goes to the governor
for signature.
Representative ". G. Van Horn, who
made an imPassioned speech against
the passage of the bill in the house
yesterday, furnished the Associated
press with the following statement:
The first object Of the bill is individually
TO prevent prosecution Of those main
tanning polygamous relations long since
contracted The effect, however, viii
probably be to have adopted a constitu-
tional amendment giving power to coz
gress to legislate against polygamy and
unlawful cOhabitation- Laws passed IN
der such an amendment would be prose-
cuted by United States district attorneys
sworn to enforce the law, and the viola
tons will be carefully looked UP hy
United States marshals and their assist
ants. There will thus be a return to CTR
ditions prevalent during the aggressive
prosecutions under the Edmunds-TucScr
law, when hundreds OF prominent Nor
amOus practices and numberless others
were in hiding or out Of Utah to avoi1
arrest It is a distinct step backward and
can bring naught but misery

NDICTs DEALERS IN SLAVES.
Grand Jury at Anderson, S. c., Pictures
the Horrors OF the Bondage System
in Existence There.

Anderson, S. c., March Given
tieth century methods of slavery
were publicly condemned in the state
court here yesterday. In a present
ment which pictured the horrors of
the bondage system, the grand jury
returned indictments against four Of
the leading citizens of Anderson and
a score of guards. So pleased was
Judge Benet, who first demanded an
investigation, that he declared that he
was profoundly grateful to a jury
which had the backbone to break up
an Ubiquitous system of slavery,
which was showing a tendency to
spread throughout the state. The
jury showed in its report that negroes
had been bought and sold; that they
had been seized on the highway and
kidnapped and sent to the prison pens,
where they were bound and shackled
aid warned that death would follow
any effort to escape.

Laws Relating to the Deportation OF Non
Resident Insane and Destitute Insane
Are Eeononizers.

Topeka, Kan, March 1.-TWO laws
were passed by the legislature that
viii save the state a vast amount Of
money annually for the care Of its
insane. One is the Carpenter bin,
which provides for the deportation
Of nonresident insane paupefs- Tt
is estimated by Senator Carpenter that
this alone viii save the state $780,
600. The other provides for the Plae-
ing of the destitute insane not in
asylums under control Of the state
board of charities. Heretofore the
state has paid the various counties
for keeping these unfortunates- In
several instances the counties have
padded their accounts, and In other
instances people would work the
county and the state would have to
stand for it. One woman was on the
states pay roll for nine years as being
insane. During all that time she kept
house for her husband and gave birth
to six children.
