THE DOG LAW
Must Be Stringent or It VIII Have
 No Effect

Some difference of opinion exists regarding the proposed dog ordi- nance, and 1t Is likely that an effort will be made to have 1t changed be- fore it is finally adopted. Some say 1t Is too weak while others contend that 1t confers too much power on the police, and take the ground that 1t would be much better to put owner reasonable sum for getting 1t back, instead of killing 1t on the spot, that is provided 1t was not mad.
 One man said to-day that his dog does not leave the yard on an aver age of once or twice day and then only to have short trot up and down the sidewalk, still according to the new draft of an ordinance covering this matter an officer would be within his lines in shooting 1t If he happened along when the animal was out for its regular walk. There does not appear to be any way of fixing things so as to suit everybody. The same condition obtains with human beings. Look at all the trouble a large share of people are put to on account of the misconduct of others. In the factories rules would not be as stringent as they are were 1t not for the conduct of a small proportion of the help who in- sist upon doing things that the others wouldn't think of. If they have five minutes to wash up some will try to rrat oh pF fHN Nth ovA Ic job before the rush with the result that the management finally shuts down on the whole business and everybody has to pound away until the whistles blow and then wash on their own time. The saloons wouldn't be closed on Sunday and men wouldn't be cross-eyed from looking in all directions in order to keep a line on the police when they want drink, if all knew enough to stop before drinking to excess.
 If an epidemic of small pox or other malignant type of sickness at Jacks the human family lots of people that there is nothing the mat ter with are Quarantined, not be- cause they have the malady. but on account of the fact that they had been exposed to 1t and might possibly spread the disease. In these and various other cases that might be cited people are hardshipped for the public good although they are in no way responsible for the source of the trouble. Now. then, the treatment doled out to human beings ought to be good enough for the dogs and 1t cannot be applied any too soon.
 Alderman Elton explained it very nicely Monday night when he said that he is great admirer of dogs. but he never yet owned dog that he thought as much of as he does of his neighbours child. He wanted the dogs restrained. but just the same there are hundreds about town who if they had their own way wouldn't tie up their dogs if they chewed up half the people in town. In fact they never would regard the thing seriously until some of the pets caught hold of their own shins. Then you would hear music.

lNsuRaENr BANDS.
Manner in Which They are Recruited
 As Told by Newspaper Writer.

New Orleans, Sept 12.-A descrip- tion of the manner in which Cuban insurgent bands are said to have been largely recruited was received last night from a Picayune corre- spondent who is travelling through the provinces where the revolution is strongest. After noting the ruin of this years crop and the fact that where Pino Guerra raised the stand ard revolt, the banks which were financing planters. refused to give further assistance. the dispatch says:
 "The experience of one planter in Havana province Is typical of what has occurred everywhere. He em- ployed 150 negro men. When he told them that he would be unable to pay them any longer. they Loyalty offered to remain with him if food alone were supplied. I have no food.' he replied.
 "The only word of advice that . sincere interest in their welfare could suggest was Go join the insurgents: you can at least have bananas and mangoes.'

A few of the officers of the Catho- lie women's association responded to the call for a meeting to be held last evening in the association rooms. It seems the call did not reach all of the officers. Those who were pre- sent, however, were confident of most successful year which will open at the usual time. in few weeks.
 The success that attended the last term which closed in June was one of the most successful in the asso- ciation's history, but the officers will make ready for a bigger and more prosperous re-opening this fall.

ANNIVERSARY OF ANDREWS RAID
Monument Erected by Survivors Was
Decorated With Powers This
Morning.

CHICKAMAUGA, Tenn, April r.
Today being the anniversary of An
drews' famous raid, the monument
erected by the survivors of the raid to
the participants, in the Chickamauga
National park, was decorated with
flowers this morning and during the
day it was visited by hundreds of peo-
pie, among them many veterans.
The famous raid was one Of the most
daring incidents of the civil war. On
the morning of April IL, 1862, Captain
W. A. Fuller left Atlanta in charge Of
a passenger train on the Western &
Atlantic railroad. When he reached
Marietta a party of strangers, dressed
in citizens clothes, boarded the train
and paid their fares to different points.
They claimed to be refugees from the
Yankee lines joining the confederate
army, but were really disguised SOL
diers, volunteers from Silrs brigade,
Mitchell's corps, U. S. A, commanded
by James j. Andrews, a citizen of
Flemingsburg, KY.
At Big Shanty the train stopped for
breakfast While the passengers and
nearly all the members of the crew
were eating, the raiders took possess
sion of the train and started the en-
CINE, which bore the name General"
in the direction of Chickamauga river.
Captain Fuller and several members
of the train crew started in pursuit
on a handcar and compelled the raid
ers to abandon the General" at a point
between Ringgold and Graysville,
where the fuel gave out. OF the TWEEN
ty-two men who took part in the raid,
eight were executed in Atlanta as spies,
six were paroled to City Point, Va, and
eight escaped from prison in Atlanta
The object of the raid was to burn
the bridges on the line Of the West
ern & Atlantic railroad and thus cut
off the confederate army from its base
of supplies The raiders were to re-
ceive 100000 in the event of success.

HOUSE RUN AGROUND on MUDBANK
Four Story Dwelling House Floats
Down Stream and Sticks in
the Sand.

BAYSHORE, L. I. April 12.-The
running aground on a mudbank of a
big house with a tower four stories
high, is an occurrence probably never
before recorded. Yet, it is fact that
the large dwelling owned by Commo-
dore Adolph Mollenhauer, of the Pena-
taquit Corinthian Yacht club, is strand
ed in the mud at the mouth of Awixa
creek and cannot be moved until it is
floated by some unusually high tide.
The building, which weighs about
two hundred tons, is being moved from
country seat, in Awixa avenue. to site
in Maple avenue, a half mile to the
west. 1t was impossible to move 1t
overland, owing to the long circuitous
route that would have to be taken,
and it was decided to attempt to con-
vey it by water.
The structure was placed on skids
and slid about one hundred feet to five
big scows, on which it was safely load
ed. The scows were then floated down
the river, but when opposite the coun-
try seat of Charles c. COddington they
ran aground in the mud. Now nothing
remains to be done but to await rescue
by some unusually high tide, when, 1t
is hoped, the task of moving will be
completed.

supplies, is the report that comes from
Seattle.
have been supplied the contractor COW
ering that part of the railroad work in
the pass and up the Snoqualmie river.
Construction crews will be scattered
along the right Of way as close as they
can be worked to advantage.
The first work on the road will be in
slashing and grading. The right of
way has been marked out by the sur
veyors and the contractor is expected
to get it ready for rail laying as soon
as possible.
Mr.. Henry will have to build or Sc
cure in some manner new roads for
through which the road will pass. 1t
is stated by railroad officials that eight
miles of road suitable for heavy team
ing will have to be provided before
supplies can be sent forward.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
is now ready to furnish building ma
terias to the contractor as fast as
he can use them. No definite date has
been given by Mr.. Henry to the rail-
road covering the time when construc-
ton will commence but it is to begin
as soon as he is able to forward his
supplies and crews. Highway work
must first be completed.
The railroad will begin the improve
ment of it's local facilities as soon as
the franchise is granted by the coun-
Gil AS this cannot be done for at least
ten days, construction work is not apt
to begin in Seattle before the first of
next month. While railroad officials
deny that contracts for supplies here
have been let, it is stated authoritative
ly that all the timbers and piling need
ed can be secured promptly. The in
ference is that the ST. Paul officials
have an understanding with mill men
and pile contractors who will supply
certain materials promptly as soon as
ordered.
Work through the Cedar River valley
cannot be ordered until the railroad
reaches an agreement with the city af
fecting the occupancy of the city's
right of way This will delay construc-
ton work from Maple valley where
the new line will leave the tracks Of
the Columbia & Puget Sound.

Speyer & Co. Out.
One change that caused comment in
Wall street was the retirement of
James Speyer and Charles H. Tweed
both of the firm Of Speyer & Co. These
two men negotiated the sale OF a con-
trolling interest in the Southern Pacific
to the Union Pacific company and it
was supposed that the relations be-
tween the Speyers and Mr.. Hartman
were friendly.
A member of the firm of Speyer &
Co. said that the retirement of Mr..
Speyer and Mr.. Tweed was without
particular significance. He added that
this event did not foreshadow the res
ignations of members of Speyer & Co.
from the boards of any other corpora
tons with which they were con-
nected.
E. H. Hartman, through his own
personal holdings and the large block
of stock owned by the Union Pacific
company, now controls more than two
thirds of all the Southern Pacific stock.

question which is becoming popular in
congress. He has introduced a resolu-
ton providing that the ways and means
committee shall appoint a sub-cimmit-
tee to hold sessions during the recess
oe congress and give hearings to any
people who may be interested in the
tariff.
Mr. Davidson hopes by this means
to bring out the extent of the tariff
revision sentiment in the country and
determine whether commercial condi-
tons are such as to justify congress
in going to the work of revising the
tariff schedules throughout.
There is no immediate prospect of
tariff revision, az everybody under
stands. The demand for it never has
been either general or specific in par
ticular localities. There has been a
great deal Of talk about the tariff from
time to TIME. In one section of the
country there is a demand that the
customs rate shall be lowered on some
particular article which enters into
general consumption. In other sections
there is a demand for change Of rates
on a totally different commodity.
OF course, the old, unadulterated
standpatters in congress don't like the
idea of taking even a preliminary step
for tariff revision. They insist it would
unsettle business.
Nevertheless, it is the true conserv-
ative elements of both houses, members
who are neither radical free traders
nor violent protectionists, who see in
the proposition of the Wisconsin repre-
sentative a way out of the dilemma.
