PRESS DISPATCHES
CENSORED SEVERELY

LONDON, July 2S-A dispatch to the
Daily Telegraph from Biarritz describes
the almost insurmountable obstacles
the censorship imposes on the news
service from Spain and Melilla.
One of the news agencies at Madrid
has been threatened with suppression,
the dispatch says, If news disagreeable
to the government reaches foreign
countries even by post.
The revolutionists, according to the
correspondent, are masters of the stu
alton at Barcelona, bad feature OF
the revolt being the intense hostility
toward religion. Churches, colleges and
converts have been wrecked in every
direction.
The troops are acting on the de-
fensive, but are being fiercely attacked
by the revolutionists.
The whole Third and Fourth army
corps will be sent to Barcelona to-
gether with two brigades of cavalry
from Madrid, one under command OF
Prince Charles of Bourbon.
Dispatches from Madrid describe the
situation as extremely grave. King
Alfonso was wildly hooted in the streets
on his arrival, and the government is
doing it's utmost to minimize the effect
of the crushing reverse suffered by the
Spanish forces at Melilla. 1t will be
obliged to send large reinforcements to
that point.
Breaches of discipline are common
both at Melilla and Madrid.
1t is also asserted that a whole bat
talon recently refused to fight at
Melilla and fed, leaving their colonel

imperative to restore communication,
a convoy escorted by two strong col
umns was sent out in command OF

the entire day.
The Spaniards suffered a terrific flu
sillade from the Moors, who first fired
from the Businesses of the mountain
and then boldly charged in the face of
murderous assault by the Spanish
artillery. Spanish officers say the
Moorish loss was enormous.
After Spanish reinforcements had
reached the convoy, the Moors were
driven back into the hills.

LoAvES OF BREAD ARE
TOO SMALL.

The Los Angeles City council has
passed an ordinance providing that
cverv loaf of bread offered for sale
must bear stamp showing the name
of the baker and the weight of the
loaf 1t is specified thar the bread
must weigh equal TO the stamped
weight within eight hours after bak-
Ing.
This Is good law, as It protects
the public against the sale of light
weight bread. Bakers. as the price
OF flour increases, are tempted 10 re-
duce the weight of the loaf in order to
maintain margin of profit The con-
sumeTs are not apt TO complain at
a 5 Eli loaf, if they are informed as
TO tle weight of loaf they arc buying.
but to buy that which seems to be a
loaf OF bread and discover, as they
have in Salt Lake, that they are short
weighted from three TO five ounces,
IS to arouse public resentment.
Of seven samples Of bread purchas-
ed and weighed in Salt Lake Thurs
day. the best loaf was three ounces
short in weight The sample from the
Palace bakery weighed only eleven
ounces

Washington, June 24.-The course
OF the senate today was the reverse
OF lts course yesterday, the entire
day being given over to speeches
There we're three lengthy addresses

hours and was followed by Mr.. Bail
ey at almost as great a length
| MT. Newlands was the last OF the
days orators and he had not long
surrendered the floor, when the SEN
| ate adjourned
Mr.. BeveridSe discussed an amend
ment proposed by him regarding the
size oil tobacco packages. He con-
! tended that while the size of the
/ packages had been reduced during the
Spanish war. to compel the purchaser
to pay the war tax. those sizes had
not been restored nor the prices re-
duced, Notwithstanding the removal
OF the tax, thus practically giving the
tobacco manufacturers, and especially
the tobacco trust, the advantage of
the tax, even though 1t has not been
In operation for about nine years, He
declared the trust had influenced
legislation for this purpose, and as
serted 1t was benefited TO the extent
OF million dollars year.
Mr.. Bailey talked about Zee raw
material for the purpose Of justifying
his vote as a Democrat against the
free entry of iron ore. lumber and
hides. He declared that previous to
the Cleveland administration the es-
tablished Democratic policy was In
opposition TO the free admission OF
raw material.
Mr. Nawlondc oopoIdorad the In
come tax question, devoting especial
consideration to the presidents rec
ommendation for a corporation tax
He discussed at length the legislation
OF 1898 providing for tax upon the
gross receipts of oil refiners, on
which the Spreckels case was decided
by the supreme court, and which is
relied upon by the president for the
proposed corporation tax. He point
ed out especially that the law Of 1895
was applicable not TO corporations
alone, but TO every person. firm, com
pany and corporation carrying on such
business. He suggested that tax
applying only to corporations might
violate the constitutional requirement

Mr.. Aldrich proposed an increase Of
