THE WASHINGTON LETTER.

The special session Of the senate
of the fifty eighth congress has ad-
journed sine die after having ratified
both the Panama and the Cuban
treaties and the president expressed
himself as satisfied with the work
of the session. Nevertheless, there
is grave doubt in the minds of many
friends Of both treaties as to their
future. In the case Of the Cuban
treaty it has been amended in sew
eral instances and 1ne. at least, Of

This is tue Bacon amendment which
provides that the treaty shall go
into effect only when approved by
the congress - The question IL
raised, Can m exehaugs Of r1tific1

Of the senate is of so equivocal a
character and depends. for its ulti-
mate settlement, on the ctiOn oe
both houses of congress at the next
session? II is certain that there
will be no reciprocity with Cuba
until late in the next session and in
the opinion of many competent
Judges the house will amend the
treaty and thus precipitate a general
discussion and contest which will
mean the dofeatof he entire project.

Not content with elimina ting the
word "obey" from the marriage serv-
ice, in imitation Of examples that seem
to have been unusually frequent Of
late, a Philadelphia bride threw senti-
ment and the conventions wholly aside
and at the altar steps drew a bill Of
rights upon the groom and cOwed
the helpless creature into signing it
then and there. This, it seems to us,
is going too far, especially as the
document as drawn was fiercely eX
plicit in defining the wife's rights and
the husbands duties and more tiercely
mute as to the husbands rights and
the wfe's duties. Marriage. according
to some opinions, is not the establish
ment of relations between two hostile
powers with different interests, but
the ceremonial announcement of re
ciprocal trust and amicability already
forned-not a treaty of peace, but a
recognition of its existence. Why,
therefore, bill of rights for either
party to the contract: Fortunately,
the uselcssncss of the innovation will
soon lead to its abandonment. The
husband signed, because he was
scared, but compulsory acquiescence is
apt to be peculiarly impermanent, and
to have yearning for freedom in the
near background. AS much as wives
have obcyed in the past because they
promised to do SO, so much will hus
bands observe the provisions OF an
agreement like this.
