use the importnnt body of our popu

(rue Americans, whether of Hrltlsh,

irite but nevertheless an almost lrre-
dstible argument that our nations
Ihonld stand together because blood is
(bicker than water. In default of oth-
kr reasons this sentiment on many
ucmonible occasions has prevailed and
laved the day.
"But we must be prepared hencefor

u'oral basis namely, that our claim is
t just one for I believe that to both
ations Justice is the cornerstone of
heir international structure."
To this conservative and unbiased
i.'ction of the Ajnerlcan community
:.r. Hammond averred that "England
-a not condescended to explain."
fo this lack of condescension Mr.
Sammond attributed the "general pro-
poer sentiment" which he found upon
Ms return to the United States in 11KK).
the speaker pointed out that American
impressions of the Iloer war were de
lved from the political emissaries of
ihe Hoers and the writings nnd speeeb-
fs of the British pro-Boors, under
ivhlch circumstances, he saldi it was
lot surprising that the "corrupt Trans-
raal oligarchy, masquerading under
he name of the 'little sister republic,'
lad secured the nld and sympathy of
Imerlca. However much we British
ml 'Americans differ from the Boers
Jolitically, we are compelled to ad
mire the plucky light made by the un
fortunate and deluded Boers now uu-

yesterday, Mr. Itawllns (I'tah), the

He denounced the bill ns nn unwar
ranted Imposition on the Filipinos, de-
clarlng that it would establish one of
the foulest oligarchies in the history of
the world. He maintained that the
Philippine commission was given too
great power by the bill nnd asserted
that under Its provisions the Island?
would be exploited for private gain.
While hp was speaking two efforts
were made to maintain a quorum, the
second resulting In n lively tilt among
several scnotors, Mr. Scott (W. Vn.) in-
tlmating that argument could not in

The house by 11 vote of 75 to 72 rejected

AppulliiiK l." of Life by Burning of
Klver Steamer.
CAIRO, 111.. April 2X No more bod
ies have been recovered from the
steamer City. of Pittsburg, which was
burned Sunday. Practically nothing
has been done to search the wreck for
bodies. It Is fair to assume that the
total number on board at the time of
the fire, passengers nnd crew, from all
reliable statistics given from memory
by officers, was 145, and It Is known
that seventy-tive were saved, which
leave seventy to be accounted for. the
corrected list of the lost given Is fifty,
and there must be twenty bodies In the
wreck or the river. The underwriters
will endeavor to Investigate the burn
ed hulk.
At the coroner's inquest over the
bodies of Cuptaiu Sylvester Doss and
Miss Mario Tlsslm a verdict was ren
dered that the former came to death
from exhaustion and the latter from
inhaling smoke, and nothing was de
veloped ns to the origin, cause or re
sponsibility for the disaster. Captain
Phillips testified that he could not ac
count for the origin of the fire unless
nn electric wire had started it. Many
stories have been told by survivors of
their thrilling experiences In escaping
from the burning decks, and some t?
them are of a most startling character.
The vletlniB were from points along
the Ohio valley, and they hove left n
trull of bereavement from Pittsburg to
the Mississippi.

Ticket Scalper Fleaded Guilty.
Adolph Blau Learned Something About Tha
Law on Ihe Suhjoct. Judge Kelly
Wai Lenient.
The first case of a man being ar
raigned in the criminal courts of Lacka
wanna county for ticket scalping was
called before Judge Ivl wards recently.
The derendant was Adolph Blau, who
is the manager ol the Commercial
Loan company, doing business at No.
to Lackawanna avenue. The com-
platnant was M. L. Smith, the district
passenger agent of the Lackawanna
railroad
Blau pleaiied guilty upon the ailvice
of his counsel and was let off with an
extremly lenient sentence. It was $25
and costs.
Cases in this state for ticket scalp-
ing have been rare, although there
has been a law apainst it on the statute
hooks of Pennsylvania since the year
1863. It was only recently that the
supreme court of Pennsylvania decid
ed that that law is a good one and that
it is a crime to scalp tickets in Penn
sylvania.
The D. L. & W. company some-
time ago had reason to complain
of
ticket scalping in this city and started
out to find where the trouble came
from. They soon found that the tickets
were being scalped by Blau. Mr. bmith
remonstrated with him and told hun
not to sell the tickets of the Lacka-
wanna and also called his attention to
the law ol this state regarding 11.
rjau Jjj S0p for a time and then
wnen the New York state court decid-
, -P.iinst the railroad companies in
the famous case at Buffalo he thought
that it gave him a license to sell, and
o - . . .
started up the scalping business again.
Mr. Smith told him again and also
called his attention to the fact that the
law in New York state was not the
same as the law in Pennsylvania, and
tnat .he jaw ,n tms sUte was straight
that the law in this state was straigiu
Qut ou against the practice. Ulau

There is a big difference between
the case that was in New ork state
brought there by the companies against

. The guit here jn cquit not
..-, ... mi . - .,i; .
m the criminal court. The peculiar
- part of the suit there was that it was
decided against the company on me
ground that they did not come into
court with clean hands and when a
man comes into the equity court for
redress of grievances he must come
there without soot or blemish. Thus
it appears that while the New York
courts decided against the companies
they did not decide that ticket scalp
ing in New York was legal.
In passing sentence on Blau, Judge
Kelly told him that it was on account
of all the facts in the case that he was
so lenient. That he felt that Blau had
made a mistake in his understanding
of the New York law and did not un
derstand the difference between that
and the law in this state. Judge Kelly
stated that the law in Pennsylvania is
clear and distinct, and that it positive
ly makes ticket scalping a crime. It
is a serious crime, too. The penally
is fine and imprisonment in the peri
tentiary
. The court impressed the fact upon
Blau that while he was lenient this
time it was not to be understood that
he would be so lenient with him or
anyone else if they should be brought
t ! .L- l -

While the I)., L. & W. company
agreed to have judicial clemency ex-

it was an example to anyone else that
would be found scalping their tickets.
