ANTI-PASS SENTIMENT.
1T Is GROHTyG IN CONGRESS- As
WELL As THROUGHOUT THE
COUNTRY.
Many Legislators Have Already Set
Their Faces Against the Accept

(. Their Faces Against the Accept
n ance of Railroad and TeIegraphi<
Fayors.
/, When Congress convened last fall II
met I'm extra session upon the call OF
the President. and this session contin-
ued over into the regular session.
! which met December 9th. There was
no interval between the two sessions.
IL was thus apparent that there could
have been no travelling back and forth,
no returning Of the Members of Con-
gress 10 their homes following the
special session and coming on to Con-
gress again for the regular session
! yet the House Of Representatives by a
/ large majority passed a resolution
voting themselves extra mileage for
this extra session, amounting to nearly
! $2OO.OO0-a mileage grab for imaginary
travel
Fortunately for the honor of Con-
gress, the Senate refused to even con-
slider the question. But the incident
brought out the fact that the majority
Of the Members of Congress- including
some Of our most renowned legislators,
and including nearly all the Represen-
tatives who voted for this indefensible
grab at graft, habitually travel on free
railroad passes. Many of them not
only secure train passes from the rail-
roads but Pullman passes as well and
also free meal privileges on dining
cars.
Anti-Pass Cranks Will Soon be
Common.
There have been several men in Con-
gress during recent years who have,
sometimes perhaps with too much os-
tentatiOn, refused railroad passes, and
they have been generally looked upon
as cranks and denOminated anti-pass
freaks. contemporary remarks.

who have hitherto

NEW YORK, June 11.-There was a
rush to sell stocks today and the strong
underlying demand and the vigorous sup
port which have been in evidence for
some time past were no longer manifest
The consequence was wide decline In
prices. The volume of trading was not in
excess of that for many single days re-
Gently, so that the supporting of prices
should have been no more burdensome
than heretofore. There was no attempt
This selling pointed to various causes
some of them with deep lying sugges-
ton of dry humor. Profits had become SO
attractive as a result of the advance, II
was explained, that the successful hold
ers were reducing their holdings and get
ting away from the intense heat.
There was really nothing to indicate
revived agitation of the Equitable Life
affair and the suspicious aroused by the
cotton report scandal toward the grain
condition report due after the close of the
stock market.
Rates for time money were firmer, in
spite of the stock liquidation in connection
with the Japanese loan subscriptions and
the London market was affected by the
same cause. The rise in sterling eX-
change in Paris may have been due to
remittances from that center to share
in the allotment of the Japanese loan.
The weekly crop news was not regarded
as promising for the various crops The
compilation of listings at the stock ex-
change for the first six months of the
year shows the largest aggregate OF
bonds for any six months, and of stocks
nine times the amount estimated in the
first half of the year.
Bonds representing new capital exceed
ed by 70 per cent those for the last half of
1904 and more than twice the amount
shown in the first half of any previous
year. Some special causes are recognized
especially the advent of foreign govern
ment issues to this market. But the
great volume Of capital thus offered for
fotation makes a clear incentive for the
attempt to stimulate interest in the stock
market which has been evident for the
past few weeks. =,itfuv= $50 80 srf' Z
