the Mayor Violates Gus

Montreal Que. Feb. 20.-The Indian
custom that prescribes one kiss from the
chief magistrate for every girl in the
village on New Years day brought Judge
Leet to the consideration OF knotty
point of law yesterday. Lucy Deer, a
pretty Indian of Caughnawaga, charged
Mayor Patton of that village with as
sault because he was not satisfied with
the one kiss prescribed by custom, but
insisted on giving her approximately
900" osculatory congratulations.

or is given six days in which to perform
the rite of kissing every girl in the

to live up to the custom prescribing the
one mayoralty embrace, but that the
mayor exceeded his duties by far Judge
Leet reserved his decision.

Washington, July 12.-The House

at same time this morning and having
subpoenaed the same witnesses, were
in a clash af authority as to which had
prior rights.
Martin M. Mulhall was commanded
to be at both meetings. AS witnesses
appeared at the House meeting the
committee went into executive session
for a short time, then announced it
would protect its witnesses and docu-
ments.
Mulhall appeared at the Senate meet
ing and was promptly put under
guard to prevent the House committee
from getting to him.
Important documents, expected to be
introduced, were placed under a guard
of six men and Senate page. Senator
Reed said to the page as he called him
to guard the papers. Here boy, watch
these papers, and if any one tries to
get them, shoot him."
Among other things, Mulhall testi-
fed that in his efforts to defeat the

arranged to have the Senator's own

With a showing that the penalties
fall on the farmer who produces the
cotton, and the government experts

by the cotton grower because of poor

ship companies have adopted the rul
that every bale of cotton must be bale,

The only way this penalty can b
