HITS THE RAILWAYS HARD.
Decision Pnttiaff Vigorous life Into Intel
state Commerce Lav.
Washtxgtox, March 24. A decision
was rendered by the supreme court of
the United States today in the case of
Theodore V. Brown, involving the right
of a court to compel an answer by a
witness to questions in interstate com
merce cases, notwithstanding he may
plead self incrimination as the result of
an answer. The decision was opposed I
to Brown's contention that he was pro- J
tected by the constitution from this re
quirement, and the decision of the court
belovc- was affirmed. The opinion was
handed down by Justice Brown. Jus
tices Pi eld, Shiras, Gray and White dis
sented, holding that the constitutional
provision was sufficient to relieve Brown
from the requirements to answer.
In announcing his opinion, Justice
Brown said the question involved was
whether the law of IbQ'S, specifically re
lieving witness in interstate commercn
cases from prosecution when they re
veal iacts which might incriminate
themselves, operates to take from wit
nesses in such cases ' the privilege of
silence as guaranteed by the constitu
tion, and the conclusion was that it did.
He said this act was in the nature of a
generally amnesty in such cases and had
been so recanted and upheld in half a
! dozen decisions in the state courts.
FIRED ON EACH OTHER.
Trro Columns c-f Spanish Troops 31ake
Another Terrihle III under. j
Havana, March 26. Another terrible ;
mistake, attended with loss of life, and ;
resulting in many soldiers being ;
wounded,has taken place. In some man- j
ner unexplained, two columns of Span-
ish troops cpened fire upon each other j
at midday. According to a few details ;
received here- the columns of troops
commanded by General Gcdoy and Col
onel Holguiu at the Santa Bosa planta
tion, near Esperanza. province of Santa
Clara, mutually mistook each for insur
gent forces, owing, it is said, to ihe
thickness of the sugar cane. Each de-
i tachment opened fire upon the other,
and for 10 minutes shots were ex
changed, resulting in the killing of 17
soldiers, among them being Lieutenant
Colonel Fnenmsyer of the 2Javas battal
ion. In addition, five officers and S5
soldiers were wonnned. Two of the
latter have since died, six others are
mortally wounded, and 32 are seriously
injured. Lieutenant Colonel Frxen
mayer died while lending his troops on
and shouting, "Long live Spain."
Owinc to the fact that the meeting be
tween the two columns took place at j
midday the explanation furnished by i
the Spanish commanders is considered
unsatisfactory and court martial will
follow.
THIRTEEN MINERS KILLED.
Terrible Explsien In the Bern-ynd-White
3Iine at Dubois 13-
Dubois, Ph., March 24. A terrible
j explosion of gas occurred today at the
i Berwynd-"White shaft, in the eastern
j limits of this city, and thirteen miners
J were killed. The mine is a new one
i which the company ha? been opening
I up and working crews in shifts to push ,
! the headings ont in various directions j
j for the purpose of big wrrk later on.
; Eighteen men went ou at 7 o'clock this .
morning, l-J going mto ue norm neaa- j
ing and four into the south heading. At
about 10 o'clock the four men were sen
sible of a shock, and a few minutes latex
the mine boss came to them and told
them that something had happened,
and that they should got oat as soon as
they could. "When the party, then con
sisting of five, reached the foot of the
shaft they were nearly overcome by gas,
and were hurriedly taken up in the cage.
Aaastance was immediately sum
moned and practical miners from the
Beil Lewis and Yates company's mines
volunteered their services. As the work
of rescue proceeded it was found that
the shock in the north heading was so
terrific thct some of the bodies were j
mutilated almost beyond recognition. '
"Widows and orphans of ihe victims dis
played awful grief when the bodies
were hoisted to the surface. i

Surprise is expressed at the sudden

but all have now been arrested and arc

FUN IN ECONOMY.
On Woman Things It Is a lascinatbBj;

"Ob, but economy is a fascinating
theory," exclaimed the woman in a
' tailor frock. "It's almost as exciting as
a lottery ticket or playing the races.
You put in a little and get out a lot of

in the housekeeping papers that tell
how you can make a walnut sideboard
out of a pine piano box and cozy cor
ners out of last year's chicken coops and
catchalls that fill all beholders with
envy cat of your old overshoes."
"Yes," agreed said she in the picture
hat, "I think those descriptions are per
fectly fascinating, and I mean to try
some of them when I get a little money
ahead. Think of being able to take a
lot of old packing cases and by means
of a lot of plush and gilding and crna- ;

body but your liest enemy could tell :

"Don't you believe it," Eaid the old

broom handles once to make a gypsy ta- t
bis that was described as making an j
ideal tea table. I put 47 different coats !
of stain on those broomsticks in an
efiort to persuade them to become cher

ed two days trying to fit the broomsticks '
into a cheesebcx top so the thing would
stand up. 1 bought wadding to pad tho
top, and felt to cover it, and fringe to '
go around it, ana ornamental nails to
hold it on. When it was done, I had !
spent three times what a good table
would have cost at a shop, but I had a
righteous glow of having economized
that was worth any money."

LONDON OMNIBUSES.
Interesting Statistics of Transportation In
the English Capita!.
Some interesting details have appear
ed in a report on the omnibus and tram
car service of London. The tramways,
which correspond to our car lines, are
all of 4 feet 8 inches gauge except two
lines, which are cnly 3 feet 6 inches.
There are in tho city 71 distinct routes,
of which 5S are in use. The mileage of
the worked lines is riven as 849. The
average speed of a London tram is 5.48
miles per hour; that of a London omni- j
bus is 5.5 miles per hour. The average I
tram fare is 67-100ths of a penny (2
cents) per mile. The average omnibus :
fare is 92-100tbs of a penny per mile, i
There are 879 cars on the lines, which .
among them run 17,150 single journeys
during their day's work, which lasts on
the average 16 hours and 44 minutes.
The omnibuses are more than twice as
many. There are 2,130 of them, and
these are run 35,000 single journeys in
the course cf a day that averages 15
hours and 32 minutes. There are 12 i
London tram companies. In the course ;
of a year their cars run 22,787,000 miles .
and carry 225,268,000 passengers. The.;
London omnibuses run 49,783,000 miles .
a year and carry 326, 000, 000 passengers. !
To work its tram cars London re-
quires 10.0y2 horses; to work its omni
buses it has 25.573. A summary
Ol
these figures shows that there are 3,229
vehicles employed, worked by 35,665
horses, traveling 72,500,000 miles and
carrying 551,345,000 passengers in a
year. It if calculated that each of the
800 omnibuses which pass the Mansion
House in an hour will travel 64 miles a
day, carrying 420 passengers as its day's
work and earning 3s. 6d. during each of
its 15 journeys. Sr. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Zakaness of Unzliih snd Americans.
As respects character, the British and
American publics are strikingly at one.
i The tone of popular sentiment is much
I the same. The attitude toward ques
j tiocs of general human interest is often
I identical. Political ideals are, at bot
i torn, not so unlike as superficial observ
j ers fancy. Parry spirit manifests itself
i in very similar fashion. Both are sensi
I tive, though in slightly varying degrees,
to the same appeals. The same national
spirit animates both, showing itself in
quite characteristic fashion when the
jealousy of one is aroused against the
other. Indeed it is in their mutual rival
ries and jealousies that their spiritual
kinship is often most manifest. Their
diversify is superficial and provincial;
their unity fundamental and racial.
The American who can divest himself
of provincialism in England and the
Englishman who can lay aside his in
sularity in America each finds himself
at home. Edward M. Chapman in

Mr. Saddletree is represented as saying ;

I believe that if a pastor of a fashion
able church were to denounce any partic
ular play as positively immoral it would
very soon disappear from the stage. A
very large percentage of the ordinary
playgoers are communicants of tho
churches, and a well considered con
demnation of a play would certainly in
jure its popularity. "Christian people"
would not think it "respectable" to sit
through a play which had been con
demned by their spiritual pastors. All
that is needed is a little more minis
terial courage with regard to the stage,
and it will very soon be seen that the
pulpit really possesses more power in
this direction than it ever had in the
history cf the modern drama. One thing
is certain if the stage is left to its own
devices, it will become a fruitful source
. of injury to the moral well being of the
nation. Rev. Thomas P. Hughes in
