It will be noticed with great
deal of regret that the Senate
this week passec the bill provid-
ing for an extension of the time
during which cattle may be
transported on the railroads
without food or water. This bill
has been before Congress almost
the entire session. 1t was push
ed by the live stock interests
and had the tacit approval of
the Secretary of Agricultural.
But it was solidly opposed by
most of the eastern senators and
by the humane societies of the
country without exception. The
present law provides that the
cattle going to market may be
held on the same train for %
hours without food or water.
This is bad enough. The time
is too leg and the cattle are fam
ished with thirst and made crazy
mad with fear and suffering
long before this limit is reached.
But the new law proposes to ex-
tend the time to 36 hours and
after a vigorous fight, the cattle
men have gainen their point. It
was hoped that this would be
given consideration in the airing
recently accorded the packing
house conditions, for the treat
ment of the cattle before they
reach the stock yards is a piece
of the whole system of unclean-
liness and inhumanity that fol-
lows them up to the moment of
their death and the time of the
meat going into the can. But
nothing of the sort is now ex-
pected in the new inspection
measure, and the cattle without
the interposition of the House,
or of the President with veto.
have before them prolongation
of their terrible suffering.

Notes From Washington
From Our Regular Correspondent.

Back to conference for the
rate bill. The predictions that
were made nearly a fortnight
ago that the conferees we're on
the eve of an agreement has
proven entirely false. They are
nearer together than they were
at the start, but that is all that
can be said. It is possible that
the differences ofthe two branch
es or Congress may be adjusted
so that the next report on the
bill may be made by the end of
this week. But even that is
doubtful. Friends of the meas
ure both in the Houseand Senate
say that the bill is a bettea mea-
sure and in stronger form than
it was when first passed by the
House. That is possible. The
anti-pass amendment is the
principal stumbling block to
agreement; and it is thought that
this will be removed, probably
by an allowance for the free
transportation of bona fde rail
way employees and their fami-
lies and for employees of the
Postofice, holding the commits
sion of the Postmaster General.
There is talk of Congress get
ting away on the 20th, but it is a
question if the final vote on the
rate bill will be taken before the
Oath, an that will leave a very
small margin for cleaning up the
other business that is on hand.

SEVERAL Of the merchants
and others in the city are liable
to arrest and conviction under
the state labor laws. Children
under fourteen years of age are
employed in and about places of
business, without first obtaining
a permit. One instance has been
brought to our attention during
the last few days of a boy, who
under the age of. sixteen is en-
ployed in business house, and
is required to work twelve to
fifteen hours pee day. This is
strictly against the law, and
should complaint be made to
the factory inspectors, some
thing might happen. No child
under sixteen is permitted to
work over ten hours per DAY.

A BIG REVIVAL ON
IN WILMINGTON, DEL.

According to press dispatches from Will
mington. Del. and private communica-
lions received by religious workers here
a revival Of unusual proportions has been
in progress In that city for the past week
and bids fair to reach even great limits
Capt. Theodore Valiant of the Homeward
Bound Mission of this city says that he
has received reports from Wilmington
telling Of the part that is being played in
the religious movement by the Whining
ton branch of the mission in charge of
Major Randall.
The Methodist Episcopal churches are
said to be taking up the movement with
| the greatest vigor and are holding large
| mass meetings, which are addressed by
some OF the foremost evangeists Of this
section of the country. One night this
| week. according to the dispatches, mem
bers of all the churches of this denomina-
ton turned out and marched through the
streets, holding evangelistic meetings in
the highways and byways"
Rev. DR.. J. C. Chapman. a prominent
evangelist, is largely responsible it is re-
ported, for the general and intense inter-
est that has spread throughout the city.
One newspaper account of meeting
this week Is as follows:
Intense interest was manifested at the
meeting at Asbury last night, which DR..
Chapman conducted in his usual earnest
and spirited manner. His discourse was
upon the necessity Of prayer and the
urgency of constant perseverance. He
held up Daniel, who for twenty-one days
importuned the gates of heaven for the
deliverance of the just from captivity, as
| an example Of persevering and successful
| prayer. All the success of the young He
| brew among his pagan conquerors he at
tributed to his prayer, and business men
| and men of affairs recommended him as a
noble exemplar of the religious success.
Many men, he continued, look upon
| religion as a thing effeminate, fit only for
| women and children, but never yet was
| there truly great man who was not a
| man of religion and Gladstone, the Grand
Old Man of England was submitted as
striking Illustration that religion and
greatness are not incompatible. Just a
few Daniels! Just few Daniels in the
life of today he cried, and the great
awakening would surely come
when the eloquent speaker had fin
ished q crowd moved forward to the pull
pit Enclosure which was filled in a trice,
| where fervent prayers were offered Old
women, little girls, old men, little boys,
young men and young women were moved
| to tears by this impressive scene, and the
| sobs of many could be heard throughout
| the church.
This was prolonged for many minutes,
after which DR.. Chapman called upon the
congregation to intone the doxology, which
they did standing. The benediction was
pronounced by the Rev. L. P. Corkran,
| who also made the opening prayer.
Every seat in the building was occu-
| pied at the meeting and the throng seemed
| to have been greatly moved at the words
| of the evangelist"

ANTI-FoREIaN FEELING.
Missionary Discusses the Situation in
China.

OAKLAND. Cal, January 13-The Rev,
Arthur Smith, a missionary in China. who
returned yesterday on the Siberia. is visit
ing friends in this city. The missionary
said last night:
The strong anti-foreign feeling in China
Is due in large part to the defeat of Russia
by Japan. The Chinese are awakening to
the fact that they are not subject people
The feeling against the United States Is
very bitter because OF the exclusion act
This feeling Is heightened by imaginary
wrongs and exaggerated descriptions of in
dignities heaped on Chinese in this country
as sent home by Chinese In the United
States But China as a whole has come
to belief that It is easier and cheaper to
carry on negative war against the United
states than to attack missions and Kill mis-
sionaries. The country has learned that
where there Is no violence there is no pun
ishment to follow. This feeling Is confined
10 the coast cities, however, and do not
believe that 1t would be safe for an Amer
lean to venture into the interior provinces.
What the more intelligent of the Chinese
want Is that the exclusion act shall be in
telligently interpreted, and shall be enforced
only against those classes whom II is meant

One cannot study this and contextual
Scriptures without arriving at several
striking conclusions. The whole chapter
Is filed with facts which must impress
even the casual reader. The first question
which will naturally awake in ones mind
IS what was the condition of the wofH
that Jesus should have used such PHRASE
ulogy? What was the condition of mai
kind that it should have appealed to the
love and sympathy OF God? This condition
OF mankind undoubtedly lies at the very
root of the matter. Unless mankind was
IN need of help and assistance such eX-
yressions as are contained in the text aud
kindred passages would sound out of place
and oveTdrawn.
