We are running a steady gait.
 Tom McNellis was a good back. stop for Frank Fitzpatrick yesterday and blocked him cleverly on the steal for second.
 Another new twirler for the locais arrived in the city yesterday and one more was allowed to wander. Monat was given the plank, but he is too good man to remain idle very long.
 Mike McAndrews is warming up with the weather and if that old wing can only come back he will ind himself lined up with all the other stage beauties of the local team.
 New Haven is playing pretty fase base ball for team that had only two days practice together beforo the season opened. Watch out fop that team before the season has gonA very far.
 Springfield and noiyoke, heralde6 as the $10,- beauties, both fell hy the wayside yesterday. Dan O'Neil and Tom Dowd will be doing thinoA up that way in very short order.
 Murphy, New Haven's shortstop. was not on to his job very rapidly yesterday. That is one of the woreo holes in the team as at present conN. stituted. A

maintain the system. Ee had given
special attention to this matter, con-
stantly urged the development or the
system and felt that he had been OF
substantial service to his constituents
in the success that had attended his
efforts
He also spoke about the much-talk-
ed-about bill which he had introduced
in Congress to impose a tax upon
Egyptian cotton to prevent 1t from
coming into this country so that 1t
might not compete with our Sea Is
land cotton. That bill had not been
passed, nor even reTOrted back from
the committee. and he didn't expect
il to be, for he knew that until there
was a revision OF the tariff made by
the Republican majority, a revision
certain to come after the President
ial election. he could not expect an
exception to be made in favor OF the
single item OF Egyptian cotton. Bus
his bill had served the purpose he in
tended, for il had been discussed
in committee and its merits were 50
obvious that distinguished Repubii-
can leaders had assured him thac
when tariff revision came. Sea Is
land cotton should be protected
against foreign competition. He
was. n,npDsa6 tO a prOtnFtiVa tariff as
an orthodox Democrat, but it was the
law Of the land and it would be fol
ly for our people not to get its full
benefits when they could.
There were many other features of
Mr. Clark's address which We must
omit for want of space 1t was an
excellent. and convincing speech
throughout. just the kind a sensible
constituent wants to hear from his
servant in Congress, and just the
kind, also, to show that the people

will go back beyond question, and,
already prominent in the House, he

he ranks among the leaders. Mr..
Clark was congratulated on his
speech last night and many in the
audience shook hands with him. He
leaves for Washington this week to be
ready for the assembling of Congress
next Monday.

of doing business. Mr.. Clark spoke of
the present stringency in financial
conditions and gave it as his opinion
that it was panic without a legiti-
mate cause as there was plenty OF
money in the country when it was
brought on and there was never a
higher level of general prosperity.
But the shortage OF currency was
here and it was a condition which
We had to confront and provide
against. The government was about
TO issue $100,OOO,OOO in 3-per cent
certificates to relieve the situation.
and he intended TO go TO Washing
ton this week, see the Secretary Of
the Treasury and if possible set
about 100000 of those certificates
sent to the banks in this district,
which amount would be ample TO
supply the shortage here. He would
ask the rest of the Florida delega-
ton in Congress to join with him in
this request and believed that it
would be complied with. These
short-time, interest-bearing certii-
Gates. backed by the Government,
ARE of course as goOd as gold, and
their sale down here to the amount
stated would turn loose sufficient
money to tide us over until the return
of normal conditions.
Next Mr.. Clark spoke of the high
hopes he entertained of securing the
passage of a bill during the coming
session of Congress, ordering the re-
turn to the Southern States OF the
vast sum of money. nearly $70.00O,-
900 of illegal cotton tax collected
during and just after the war. The
Supreme Court of the United States
had decided this tax illegal; the
money is lying idle in the treasury
awaiting the action of Congress; re-
peated efforts had been made to
secure that action, but old political
and war prejudices had always avail
ed to defeat them, and the remark
able situation was presented of this
immense amount of money belonging
10 the cotton States, lying unused in
the treasury because the Govern
ment had no right to use it, and those
States prevented from getting it for
no better reason than the war pre-
judices of partisan majority in Con-
gTess. But Mr.. Clark says that those
prejudices are now practically out of
the way, and he has the personal as
surance of Republican leaders that
( they will help him to get a bill
through to give the money back to
the South during the coming session
of Congress. He has put in a large
part of the past summer working on
this bill and getting up the law and
facts to support il and he now has the
case 50 thoroughly prepared that he
feels sure of success. Nearly one mill
lion dollars Of this cotton tax will
come TO Florida and where the men
who paid the tax, or their heirs. can
be discovered, it will be returned to
them, and in cases where they can
no, be discovered the money can oe
turned into the State treasury.
Mr. Clark also gave some interest
ing facts and figures with reference
to the remarkable growth OF rural
free delivery in his district since lie
took hold Of that matter in 1895.
The system was in its struggling in
fancy then, with four or five carriers
and between $4,000 and $4,000 spent
