CONGRESS IN SESSION.

The final or what is known as the short ses-
sion OF the fftyninth congress began at today
at Washington and will continue until the fourth of
March next when it will come to end by hmita-
ton Although the session itself will cover period
OF three months the actual working time of the mem
hers on account OF the. holiday recess and other
suspensions of business will not be much more than
two months.
There is little doubt that the session begun
today will partake very much OF the same character
as did the short sessions that have preceded IT,
It,1nortant measures will be rushed through with
haste that amounts almost 20 recklessness and that
affords opportunities for jobbery whether these op
portunities are improved or not.
However the appropriation bills are likely to
be pretty closely ScrutinZed since there is strong
and wcll-defncd public sentiment hostile to extrav-
agance in expenditures
ON certain measures besides the appropriation
bills the people will look for action at the session
lust begun among them the Philippine tariff bill
\ casure to give relief TO the trade of the archi-
pclago bv reducing the duties imposed by the
GinClev tariff law was passed by the house OF repre-
scntatiyes during the previous session, and is now
i,vnding in the senate.
rhcn there is the ship subsidy bill, about which
Senator Lodge is so socitous. IL was passed by
tie senate but the house cmporized with IT, instead
OF killing it outright The defeat Of this mischlevous
measure ought to be one of the certanties OF the
short session
rhere are some treaties awaiting ratification
b. tlc senate, but the probable action upon them
cannu, Lc icrcshadowed.
What legislation the president will recommend
will not be known uutil his message reaches con
crcss tomorrow but il is doubtful. should he advise
any important legislation, whether it can be dis
posed of before tho expiration OF the hity-ninth con-
gress.

lanimity. lie declares the big English and Dutch
petroleum companies have entered into a combina-
tion TO control the East India market and that in
Germany there is a combine TO dominate the oil
market in Roumania and Russia.
Then he proceeds to declare the purpose of
these combinations to be to drive the Standard Oil
company from competition in foreign markets, and
pleads for the assistance of the American people
in preventing the threatened injury to the interests
OF the Rockefeller trust.
With supreme efIrontery Mr.. Libby says: "In
the prosecution of its aggressive industrial policy
fairly entitled to the encouragement that other
governments giving similar business interests y
If the purpose of Mr.. Libby's appeal is to
excite sympathy in behalf of the Oil trust, he
simply wasted his time in making it. Neither the
laborng class any other class in this country
will view otherwise than with extreme satisfaction
any battle the Standard Oil company is compelled
to fight either at home or abroad to retain the
monopoly it has established by the most heartless
suppression of competition and the most fagrant
violation of the laws OF the land
Nor is the government at Washington likely
TO be moved by Mr. Libbys plea. On the contrary
it ought to, and probably will, incte it to still
greater activity in the direction Of breaking up a
trust the ncst rapacous and lawess that ever
looted the public and made beggars OF thousands
OF honest men for daring to carry on the oil busi
ness in this country of freemen.

THE POOR MUST SUFFER.

Consumers generally will be interested in the
explanation of the recent advance at Philadelphia
of Is cents ton in the price of pea coal. The
dealers say the operators increased the price and
that the dealers forced to do likewise in order
to protect themselves against loss
Particularly interesting is the explanation
made by the operators for this boost in the price
OF kind of coal that not so long ago drug in
the market. The advance it appears, isn't due to
any shortage OF supply or to any immediate pros
pect of shortage, but to the fact that the cost of
living has greatly increased OF late.
The operators argument is ingenious Be-
cause the consumer is paying more than he for
merly did for food, clothing and shelter, he is
forced to economze along some line and is buying
cheaper grade of coal than he used to do
Pea coal is cheaper than chestnut or egg or
other domestic sizes, and the public is purchasing
it in larger quantities than in times past OF course
up the price and secure all the profit the traffic
will bear
The operators admit there is no shortage but
inasnuch as the demand is active there may pos
siby be shortage at some vague and indefinite
time i'll the future. However it is always prudent
in such matters to be prompt i'll action lest the
opportunity ior extracting from tne puDhc every
possible renny of profit be permitted to slip by
improved
No intelligent person need be told that this
explanation is transparent nonsense the real reason
for the advance being that the coal barons know
they have tho power to mulct the public and are
proceeding TO do without warrant and without
justification.
The most dcplorable feature of this sort of
extorton is that it is practced upon the poor, for
it is only those who feel the pinch of poverty who
are likely to make use of pea coal for domestic
purposes, and for them there appears no way of
escape from the indefensible rapacty of Baer and
his fellows in. the coal combine.

HONOR IN SPORTS.

one of President Eliots reasons--and ne
lays much stress upon it--for approving
OF rowing and tennis and disappearing OF
football and several other intercollegiate
sports is that the latter offer many OPP
portunities for cheating. But IL the faet
be admitted, the conclusion does not nec-
essarily follow. 1t may be said In passing
that there are many inducements and OPP
portunities for cheating in college class
rooms and at examinations.
But. strictly within the field OF sports.
which are, OF course, to be regarded as OF
secondary Importance, 1t must appear to
most persons, we think, that more Is TO
be gained by cultivatinE high sense of
honor among students and promoting a
sturdy resistance TO temptation than BY
excluding games intrinsically excellent
merely because they arc capable OF being
dishonesty played.-New York Tribune.

About three years ago Mr.. Battersby'

severe cold. The illness which followed,
combined with his close confinement
within doors all day. produced tubercu-

and his against every man. If he has

the college are closed to him. II he

II he wants to celebrate a Yale defeat OF

President Eliot OF Harvard and Presi-
dent Butler OF Columbia have reached
the conclusion that football is not the
alpha and omega of the higher educa-
ton. Harvard'e head man has gone even
further. He has declared tennis the
only honest college sport In which ball
