Quarterly meeting Held This Morning
At The Y. NJ. C. A.

The Strangers Friend Society held
its quarterly meeting this morning at
the Y. NJ. c. A. There was a good at
tendance at the meeting the first that
has been held for nearly nine months.
The receipts for the year have been
something over $1,000 and the expendi-
lures something over $500.
Since the organization of the Assoc
ciated Charities much of the work done
and expense borne by the Strangers
Friend Society has been taken off its
hands, and its monthly expenditures
have in consequence diminished from
over 500 a month TO about $50 a month

WASHINGTON. April 29.-After q
brief discussion the senate agreed to
the house amendments to the oleo bill

now goes to the president for his sigma
ture An effort was made by Mr.. Tell

to levy tax Of 10 per cent on the cap
1tal or assets of any butter trust that
might be formed but it was defeated.
Mr.. Simmons On. c. addressed the
senate in opposition to the Philippine
government bill. He urged that the
Philippines ought to be turned over to
the inhabitants of the islands. He de-
nounced he "cruelties and barbarites'
alleged to have been committed on the
FilipinOs by the American army and
said that he felt like calling upon the
great. brave and humane man now in
the White House to probe these things
to the bottom and ut least to make
them odious.'

THERE are numerous persons in
our city who still think Collins kill
ed killed his wife,. and not the half
witted colored man who is now in
Georgetown Jail, 1and whom it is
reported has confessed the crime.
From what we can learn of the
crime, we would not suspect the
husband. He has always borne a
good reputation. There has been
no reason given why he should wish
for his wife's death. They lived as
happily as the average married cou-
pies. The half witted colored man
may OF may not be guilty, but with
out more evidence than has yet been
produced, the authorities have
nothing tangible upon which to
hold Collins or place him on trial.

every clue, but the murderer has
not been found, unless the crime
can he tasted on the colored man.
