SCORES PREFERENCE FOR
 DOGS OVER BABIES.
Dorchester Clergyman Advocates Per-
 ambuIatcrs Instead of Puppies.

Providence, May 10.-Tae average man and woman of today prefers to walk the street at the other end of lsash to which dog is attached in- stead of pushing on the handles of a baby carriage, is the opinion of Rev. George L. Cady, D. D., of Dorchester, Mass, one of the speakers at last nights session of the annual meeting of the Rhode Island conference of Con- gregational churches which was open ed yesterday afternoon in the Union Congregational church.
 Dr. Cady discussed the topic The Latest Word of Evangelism and in fur ther reference to the duty of people to posterity he said that some women would rather carry a full-blooded bull dog in their arms than a full -blooded child. He said that the future and perpetufty of the church, to a great extent, was the question Of counting noses"
 He introduced his remarks by say ing that there is a chaotic condition today on the subject of evang elism and then he spoke Of the duty of the peo- pie to care for posterity as the future of the church, by seeing to it that there was posterdty. He said that there was an increasing death rate and a decreasing birth rate in the Congre- gational household. "The average man and woman" he said, prefers to walk the street holding a leash to a dog, instead of being at the handles of baby carriage. Some women would rather carry a full-blooded bulldog in Ntheir arms than a fuIl-bIooded child. They are emulating the families of France. where family with two chil- dreD envies family with one. and a family with one child envies the one with none"

 A GRAVE RoBBER
Tragic Mistake by Men Who Had
 Laid Trap for Ghoul.

Great Fails, Mont. May 1O-A trap laid by Harfield, G.

The Free List Bill.
Special to The Bulletin )

Washington, May 10.-The farmers free list bill, which passed the house, was received in the senate yesterday where it will probably be promptly chloroformed in the room of the finance committed Not even the most strong hopes that the bill, removing the duty from 1:lore than one hundred articles used by the farmer, will pass the senate. Even if the measure comes from the committee, which is doubted by many, it will be talked to death on the floor. There is a growing feel ing that the senate will refuse to take up any tariff legislation, with the ex- ception of Canadian reciprocity, at this extra session of congress.
 The passage of the freelist bill in the house came a little after 10 o'clock on Monday night, after ten strenuous hours of partisan debate All amend ments were voted down, and the bill left the house without a single change being made since its introduction by Chairman Underwood. Representative Hill presented an amendment provid- ing that the law should not go into eff feet until ninety days after the presi- dent should have satisfied himself that the government of no foreign country imposes no terms or restrictions, either in the way of tarih rates or provisions, trade or other regulations, charges adaptations or in any other manner, directly or indirectly, upon the inn portation into or the sale in such for eign countries of any agricultural, ,man- ufactured or other product of the Unit ed States, which unduly discriminates against the United States or the pro- ducts thereof, and that such foreign countries pay no export bounty or i'm poses no export duty or prohibition upon the eyportation of any article to the United States or the products thereof.
 Representative Henry of Texas made a point of order that tine amendment made the opera ton of the law subject to the proclamation of the president, which if never issued would def(at the bill.
 After lengthy debate the chair sus- tained the point of order.
 Later on in the day MT. Hill offered another amendment seeking to make the supposed law applicable to Porto Rico, as the bill now stood it gives one tariff to continental United States and another tariff for our possessions. This also went out on d point of order made by Mir. Underwood
