A NEW PAPER is to be established II
New York by Mr.. Albert Pulitzer, q
brother OF Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer, editor OF
the New York World. The new paper,
it is said, will be of different class from
many OF the present day. Among other
things Mr. Pulitzer says:
The public no longer cares to read
half a column of headlines before reach
ing an inaccurate four line dispatch.
There Is an awful mOnotony in news
papers at the present time, from which
/ shall try to escape.
1t has been apparent iOS aOme time
thst a large majority of readers OF neSss
papers have grown tired OF flaming head
lines extending in some cases across The
first page of a paper. When the body
of a dispatch is read it is often seen to be
nothing beyond some commonplace
event. The bulk of some Journals Is
composed OF haDdbills or poster head
lines, which impart to such papers a
cheap appearance. Mr.. Pulitzer may
give original features in his new paper
but in abolishing misleading and sen'a-
tioual headlines he will be merely going
back to sane principles which were prac-
iiced by conservative journalists many
years ago, aud which are still held by a
few OF them now. Big headlines have long
since ceased to appeal to the people.

When The railr ad rate regulation bill
was taken up in the Senate today, the
Elkins amendment WAS considered II
makes it unlawful for any common car
rier engaged in producing, manufacturing,
buying, furnishing or selling coal. coke.
or any other commodity, to engage 10
interstate commerce.
Mr. Dryden declared that unless some
day was fixed for The provision taking
effect. there would ensue great hardship
for the railways and deprivation tor the
coal consuming people.
Mr.. Teller though it unfortunate that
the amendment was being pressed, as
railways could under State charter own
and transport coal within the STATE.
Mr.. Dick declared that the time
should be extended for the Effect of The
provision or else the subject should be
dealt with separately. He urged the
pOstpunemelt of the question.
Mr. Knox denied the right of Congress
to constilutio"slly enact such pro-
vision. claiming that il could only pro-
hibit trade under such conditions where
the carrier sought 10 s'he competition
or aimed To get an unfair advantage.
tie declared that Congress could not 20
