THE BRIDE COURTEOUS.

For many years it has been the Gus
tom for the railroad companies to send
passes to the newely elected members OF
the legislature. The railroad companies
say it is merely an act of courtesy, and
many perfectly honest and we'll meaning
legislators accept the statement and take
the passases. Almost any man with free
transportation in his pocket, will ride
on the railroads to the extent of 500 a
wear. Some will ride out four or five
times that amount. Should the rail-
officials come to these men and offer
them 800 or $500 in cash. they would
Indignantly refuse it, regarding the offer
as bribery. But the object OF the rail-
roads is the same in both instances and
it would be no worse crime to accept
the money than to take the pass.
The people OF the state are willing to
pay their servants. They allow ample
funds to pay for the transportation and
expenses OF the members OF the legisla
ture from their homes to Olympia and
back. Members draw this mileage and,
ii they are riding on passes, put it in
their pockets, and when they do it vir-
tually accept cash bride from the rail-
roads and place themselves under obli-
cations to the people who furnished the
passes. They may not admit, even to
themselves, that they have incurred
any obligation, but when man receives
cash or its equivalent from another per-
son without having earned it, he cannot
but feel that he owes something to it.
Legislators and railroad officials may
persuade themselves to regard this Civ
ing of passes as an act OF courtesy, but
the public regards it as an act OF bribery.
The trainers OF the state constitution
held this view and expressed in Art.
Mi, Sec. 20 as follows:
"No railroad or other transportation
company shall grant free passes, or sell
tickets or passes at discount other
than as sold to the public generally. to
any member OF the legislature, or to any
public officer within the state. The
legislature shall pass laws to carry this
provision into effect"
Every member OF the legislature takes
an oath to support the constitution OF
the state and yet legislature after legis-
lature has killed the anti-pass bill, intro
duce in accordance with the mandate
of the constitution, and the members
who voted against the measure have, by
so doing, violated their oaths and COM
mitted perjury. There is no use in
mincing words over this matter. tt e
time has come to speak plainly and the
editor OF The Commoner desires to say
here and now that he will not support
any candidate for the legislature who is
not willing to pledge himself to vote for
an ant;-pass bill and to refuse to accept
"a pass from any railroad company -

MINERS CONVENTION TO-DAY
Mitchell Says Action Wiil be Taken
 That Will settle Strike.

Indianapolis, July 16.-The national convention of the United Mine Workers will assemble tomorrow morning to discuss the advisability of calling strike to aid the anthracite men. The situation tonight indicates that there will be no walk-out of the soft-coal men.
 If President Mitchell would declare his personal preferences it would not be difficult to foretell the outcome. At present he controls the situation abso- lutely. This afternoon he made this statement: 'The convention which will meet tomorrow will before it closes, take action that will settle the strike of the miners in Pennsylvania and West Virginia"
 If no strike should be ordered it shall be likely that action shall be taken with the object of curtafIing the output of soft coal. and every effort will be made to keep it out of the anthracite region. The sentiment among the del- egates, as far as it can be determined from those who are already here, is against strike. The delegates from the anthracite regions are, strongly in favor of strike, buts they are urging their views with moderation.

TOOK C4RBOLIC ACID.
Mrs. Mary LeahV Committed Suicide in
 This City Last Evening.

Mrs. Mary Leahy. wife of Michael Leahy of IT. Ashmun street, committed suicide last evening by taking an ounce of carbolic acid The poison was taken shortly after o'clock, after her hus- band had gone down town to do some shopping. Mrs. Leahy had been acting strangely for some time. The loss of a son during the past winter had preyed heavily upon her mind.. Mrs. Leahy, who was twenty-five years of age, went to J. P. Colgan's pharmacy at the cor ner of Ashmun and Gregory street, last evening and purchased the poison, stat ing that she intended to use it for the purpose of killing bed-bugs.
 When Mr. Leahy returned home about 8:3O he noticed that his wife was acting very strangely. He went at once to a neighbours. Mrs Sargent's, at 115 Ash nun street, and they returned to care for the woman. Drs. Welch, Young and Porter were called. All efforts to save the womans life proved fruitless and she died about 10 o'clock. Dr.. Bartlett, the medical examiner, was mo- tified, and the usual examination of the body made.
 Mrs. Leahy's husband is employed by Norcross Brothers, the contractors who are constructing the new buildings for Yale on College and Grove streets.

UNION LEAGUE IMPROVEMENTS
About S30,0OO Raised and at the Dis- posar of the Committee.

.Ls. ,T- 4.
 Tn conversation with prominent member of the Union league club last night it was stated that the amount necessary for the contemplated inn provements at the club house had been subscribed with $10,000 more, so that at the present time the committee has the plump sum of $30,O00 at it's disposal, with which to complete the improve ments. Nearly all of the plans and necessary arrangements for the work have been completed and it is probable that start on the addition will be made in a few weeks.
 In front of the present building, and connected with it an imposing four story building will be erected. A fine quality of brick will be used in it's con- struetion, making it an attractive addi- tion to that fine part of the city.
 On the ground floor front will be a large hall suitable for a banquet or a political meeting and this will be a feature that has always been such a needed one at the Union League.
 On the second floor a hall of smaller size and several new card and smoking rooms will be added and on the two up- per floors will be found rooms en suite and single for the accommodation of the members and their guests. This will be a most convenient and much needed addition.
 The cafe of the Union league has al- ways been unsurpassed, but with the improvements and additions that the committee have in mind the results in that line will be even better than be- fore. The plans are so arranged that an elevator can be put in at any time. This matter of an elevator is not yet decided upon. The new building will be an honor to the league.

damage has been done by the military occupation.
 Although regretful that all the ques- tions have not been decided definitely, the government is glad to express sat- isfacti0n at the results obtained Secretary Root in his communication declares that Judge Taft's journey is quite compensated for by the fact that it is possible to fix general lines on which later can be amicably resolved all the questions now pending. Mean while, as preliminary, he wishes Car dinal Rampolla to send to the Philip pine government four lists of the prop erty considered to belong to the relig ious orders, comprising:
 One-That transferred to corpora tions.
 Two-The ecclesiastical buildings oc- cupied by the troops, with indications of the damage and compensation there for.
 Three-The property before consider ed Spanish crown lands which it is de- sired the American government should transfer to the church, though Wash ington will grant such transfers only on condition that satisfactory agreement be reached on all other questions.
 Four-the charitable and educational institutions which the vatican desires to be considered ah belonging to the church.
 Secretary Root concludes by instruct ing Judge Taft to express to Cardinal Rampolla his pleasure that the visit of the American representative has result ed in a broad basis for harmonious set clement, his thanks for the courtesy shown by the vatican to Judge Taft and for the promptness with which the vat ican has acted, and his hopes that, though no specific agreement has been reached, the vatican will ultimately find it just to do what has been suggested.
 Judge Taft concludes his note to the vatican thus:
 Tn obedience to Secretary Roots dis patch. request that the future negoti- ations on the points raised be held in Manila between an apostolic delegate and the governor after the information suggested above by Secretary Root has been ascertained and presented"

Non-Union Man Assaulted Later Ar- rested for Carrying Concealed Weapons.
 James M. Collins, an employe at Sar- gent & Co.'S, was arrested last night by PatroImen John Roach and Schroed- CT of the Grand avenue station on the charge of carrying concealed weapons. Collins is one of the non-union men at the factory and has been employed there for fourteen years. He refused to join the strikers, though committees have waited on him more than once, it is said. The last time, he says they told him that if he returned to work they would kill him, and he says be be- lieved they meant what they said. Thoroughly frightened lest he should be attacked, he purchased a revolver and carried it in his pocket, unloaded. He asserts that as he got off his wheel in front of his nome, 583 Grand avenue. last night some men who had followed him from the factory slapped his face and in other ways assaulted him. Col lins drew a revolver from his pocket and pointed it at the men. They let him alone after that, but as he was flourish ing the weapon Policemen Roach and Schroeder appeared and Collins was put under arrest. He was taken to the station and immediately secured a bondsman.

DETROIT CIRCUIT RACES.
Seven Heats to Decide 2.I7 Trot-AIIce
 Russell the Winner.

Detroit, July 16.-It took seven heats to decide the 2:17 trot at Gfosse Pointe track this afternoon and the event, which was won by Alice Russell, proved to be the best race thus far seen at the Blue Ribbon meeting of the Detroit Driving club. The five heats were driv- en in the 2:14 pace before Roamer won the event, and so much time was taken up by these two events that it was nec- essary to postpone the 2:04 pace, 2:13 trot and the 2:0S amateur pacing events until tomorrow. Racing will begin at 12:3O o'clock tomorrow with eight events on the card. The weather and track this afternoon were splendid and the attendance was in the neighbor- hood of 1000, which is unusually large for the third day of the meeting. Sum- mary:
 2:11 Trot-Purse 1$,5O0 e in heats; un-
