Washington, Mny 10. In thoro mtoh
i thing an tiownpnpor otltlca? Thin is n
question which n norics of ovontrt hnvo
brought to tho front In Wellington.
Flint, u munlior of tho undent nnd
propor Rcnntoi-H thought tho nownimpor
mon hud no right to kciiiI out accounts
of tho proceedings of tho nonnto in ox
ocutivo cession, and thoy had im Investi
gation which coHt n good deal of monoy
nml resulted in n lino old furco. Then
thoro cmno up tho Clovuliiml-Dntm
cpiHodo in Now York, which nil tho
uowRpnicr mon nnd public mon of Wash
ington took tho kooiioflt port of intorest
in, Finnlly, tho pros gnllorr commit
too, composed of iiownpapcf mon and
oloctod hy nowspniwr mon, concludod to
dlscipllno a young corrcsirondont who
had mado tho mlfltnko of Huuding out n
hnital dispatch alwut tho linhlUi of a
dlstingiilshod Htntosman. Porliniw noth
ing would hnvo boon thought or said of
thin incidont but for tho peculiar clr
cumstaticcs Biirrouudlng it. Tho sccuo
wart laid at tho funeral of Senator Dock
In tho nouato cliamlwr.
According to tho dispatch thobtaU'8
man in (luostiou, who wua a mombor of
tho funeral committoo on tho part of tho
hotiKo, staggurod into tho chamber, foil
into a neat, wit thoro in a dazod condi
tion, Btaggorod out of tho chamber when
tho coromouloH woro concluded, fell in
pansing down tho stepa, and fell ngain at
tho railway Btatlon in attempting to
bounl tho train. This would liavo boon
brutal oven If trno, but it wiw falw.
While tho committoo of nowHpapcr mon
in charge of tho pretu gallery do not fool
called uiion to piuw Judgment on tho
truth or falsity of iiowh Bout out by gun
tlomon who oujoy tho nrlvllcgeti of tho
gallery, nor to act iw prosri cousora in any
ort of way, thoy hnvo felt it their duty
to inform tho publio that tho corpu of
corrosiiondontrt, of whom thoy nro tho
oQlcial roproHontntivos, do not indorso
nowspapor Invasion of private llfo.
Horo wo havo tho best of nunwora to
tho (piestion and conclusive proof that
thoro 1h bucU n thing an nowspapor othicB.
Jounuillsm is a distinct profession, ns is
tho profession of law or medicine. It
ought to havo ita unwritten codo of
morals and practice. Its members uro
brought into iutimato rolntiouslitp with
individuals dally ,in connection vith
imiortnnt matters, and often with mut
ters of delicacy as allootlng reputation
and iioaco of mind. Tho relationship
which lawyor beam to hia cliont, or n
doctor to his patient, is no more inti
mato or imiortant than that which a
joumnllut twars to tho man whom ho in
terviews or of whom ho writes. If thoro
nro codes of ethics for tho lawyer and
doctor, thoro Bhould bo similar codes for
tho journalist. Tho journalist Bhould
know tho morals of his profession, tho
amonltics of his business, should always
feel his responsibility and appreciate tho
dignity of his position in tho social
fabric. Thoro is such n codo in journal
ism, an unwritten codo ns all lnws of
professional ethics must necessarily bo,
but us yet it is indoflnito nnd notwoll
enough understood.
Horo in Washington, howovor, whoro
journalism is at its highest state of devel
opment in America, and that means in tho
trorld , I am happy to Bay that tho ethics of
tho profession, this unwritten law, is con
stantly becoming bettor understood, nnd
year after year is bottor respected. It is
not enough that a Washington journalist
must bo ngontlemnu, ns journalists ovory
where should bo ho must havo a sense
of honor that is keen and vigilant, not
Bimply as n, matter of policy, but of tern-
Iommont nun training, xno uays 01
bushwhacking journalism, of "fako"
journalism, of coctremo partisan and per
sonal journalism, and above all of men
dacious jouninlism, nro nt an end in
tho Capital City. And being at an end
hero means Bimply that thoy nro rapidly
coming to nn end tho country over, for.
Washington journalism is a reflex of tho
journalism of tho nation. It draws its
inspiration nnd its men from tho prov
inces, nnd needs, moreover, constant rc
nownl of tho energy that comes from tho
rural press and tho men that press has
graduntcd into tho widor field.
Jouninlism as seen nt Washington has
its ethics, but I do not feel competent to
tell what that codo of othica is. Prob
ably no two working nowspapor mon
would describe it aliko. But thoro uro
certain cardinal features of it known to
us nil, nnd of thoso wo mny speak. One
of thoso was violated by tho young man
who is just now feeling tho discipline of
his fellows. Tho privnto lives of men
nnd women nro tabooed subjects in tho
newspaper practico of tho capital. If
this wcro not so, nnd wo all felt our
selves licensed ns free lances, thousands
of hearts would acho. Probably thoro is
zs plsco in tho country whero tho prl
vato lives of well known persons offer
such shining marks for criticism and ex
position as hero. I can count nt n mo
ment's notico nt least u scoro of members
of congress who llvo in a cortain sense
doublo lives men who havo both wives
and mistresbes.
If wo woro to toll what wo know and
mnko it n business to And out tho things
which wo now only suspect, plenty of
gray heads now held high would bo hum
bled. Even women of the fairest fanio
would Buffor. Luckily theso aro not le
githnafco subjects of newspaper writing.
Tho press is constantly growing moro
just nnd moro generous. It knows how
to shut its eyes us well as to keep them
open. I doubt if in our timo another
publio man meet tho fate of poor Riddlo
borger. That senator was anything but
a drunkard. Ho was bimply a drinking
man who occasionally lost his head.
When intoxicated ho was ugly and will
ful. Thoro nro a dozen men in congress
today who havo tho same fault, but tho
firoas donls forboaringly with them. Had
t boon moro loniont with ltiddloborgor
ho might havo mot a moro happy fnto.
But ho was picturesque. Tho press seized
upon his first escapade, painted it in
lurid colors, gavo him a reputation which
at that timo ho did not desorvo, and ho
foil under tho weight of obloquy thus
thrust upon him. Deing given the naiuo
ho went in for tho gaino and flnnlly died
of chagrin nnd a broken heart.
NowBpuper mon nt Wellington, ns
olsowhoro, must keop confidences. This
is onoof tho unwritten laws which is
well understood nnd nlmost universally
respected. Publio men nro not afraid
to trust tho writers. For instnnco, I
called ono recent ovonlng on tho Beakcr
of tho house. Convocation arose inci
dentally about Bomo publio men and
measures, nnd tho Banker talked very
frankly, ns -is his wont. Ho criticised
mon of his own party in his characteris
tic Bavago fashion and without reserve
Ho mado no request that this conversa
tion bo considered a privnto ono ho in
stinctively know that it was private and
would not bo printed or repented. I
could havo created a mild sort of sensa
tion by roiorting whnt tho speaker Bald,
but of courso I did not. Thta brings us
to another phaso of modern nowspajior
otliica. A mau must know that ho is
boing interviewed for publication. Tlio
gcntloman of tho modem press does not
got Ills interviews clandestinely.
All conversations not understood from
tho circumstances or by express agree
ment to bo for typo aro private. It is in
applying this rulo that ono of tho chief
sources of troublo arises. Tho nowspapor
mau is often puzzled to lmow what was
intended for publication and what was
not. That was tho bono of contention in
tho Cloveland nrticlo in Now York city.
It is often tho Ihhio of contention in less
celebrated cases. I am proud to Bay for
tho correspondents of Washington Uint
tho publio mon hero find little causo of
complaint in this regard. Tho political
journalist, an a rulo, not only respects
eonfldcuco and is intrinsically honorable,
but ho oxcrclsos flno discretion in win
uowing tho proper nnd prlntnblo from
tho privnto.
Eavesdropping is also tabooed. Tho
self respecting journalist of thoso times
will not hide himself away in closets, or
gluo his car to koyholos. Itaro stories
aro told of tho mannor in which big
nows luis boon obtahiod by thoso moans,
but most of theso tales aro of tho old
days, Tho good senators thought tho
Washington corrcstKindonts must hnvo
somo bucIi means of securing oxecutivo
nosslon secrets, but thoy woro cgregious
ly mistaken. Tho modorn journalist will
not eavesdrop, but ho will deceive Ho
will not open another man's lottor, but
ho will play n trick upon tho other man
if tho man does not watch out.
This matter of newspaper etliics is
sometimes very intricate nnd difficult to
understand. Tho publio may not bo nblo
to understand why n journalist, who
would condemn listening nt tho koy holo
of a committoo room door, could hire- nn
cmployoof tho government printing of-
.ffco to Bteal a copy of tho president's
mossugo for him, but I can understand
that, though I am not going to try to ex
plain it. I would not listen nt n koy
nolo, but I would bribo a printer to Btcnl
n mossngo for mo, providing tho rncssngo
was worth it nnd tho printer did not coino
too high. Journalists havo gono out of
tho business of stealing president's mes
sages, but thoy aro still eagor for tariff
bills. Tho publio is alroady familiar
with tho manner in which tho McKinloy
tariff bill found its way prematurely to
tho press.
A Pacific coast correspondent borrowed
tho copy of a member of tho ways and
means commitjteo to writo a paragraph
from, nnd copied tho wholo bill with n
forco of bIx typow'ritcrs. Thnt, in my
my judgment, was fnir journalism. So
wna tho schemo set up by a couplo of
bright correspondents to got nn ndvnnco
copy of tho Mills tariff bill wheu tho
publio mind wna filled with curiosity
concerning that measure Thoy lmew
Mr. Mills had n copy of tho bill from tho
printing ofllco, and that therefore tho
bill was iu typo. Their plan was to tolo
phono tho foreman of tho printing ofllco
about S o'clock in tho uf tcmoon by tho
Capitol telephone that Mr. Mifia wanted
a dozen moro copies of tho bill sent to
his house at 8 o'clock that evening.
When tho messenger nrrived nt Mr.
Mills' residence with tho inckago of
bills ono of tho conspirators was to bo in
hiding near tho door. Ho was to havo a
small packago iu his hand. Tho con
spirators thought that when tho mes
senger rang tho doorbell and tho servant
camo nnd opened tho door thero would
bo a flno opportunity to do business. Tho
man iu waiting was to rush up just as
tho messenger left, ring tho boll ngain,
and when tho servant camo to tho door
tho second timo, no doubt with tho pack
ago in hor hand, the conspirator was to
hold out hia littlo packago nnd exclaim:
"I havo loft you tho wrong package
This is tho ono thatbelongstoMr. Mills,"
and grabbing tho bundlo from tho ser
vant's hands beat a hasty retreat, as if
trying to ovortnko tho wagon, which by
this timo would bo rolling down tho
street. In tho packago which tho con
epirator was to leave in oxchaugo for tho
iscro precious ono was to bo somo bills
and reports, which Mr, Mills, oven if ho
were in tho houso nnd looked them over,
would not bo suspicious of, as, of course,
ho had not expected any copies of tho
tariff bill and would not bo suspicious of
trickery. Tho printing office would bo
satisfied tlint it Iiad dono its duty, nnd
next morning two enterprising journals
would contain o Mills tariff bill in full,
telegraphed by their agilo correspond
ents, Tho schemo did not work, for tho
simple reason that tho printing ofllco
could not print tho bills, and heuco could
not deliver them into tho hands of tho
unsuspecting borvant girl. It was a
pretty plan, and I am Borry it did not
work, for it was good journalism. The
true journalist will not look in nnothor
man's desk for tho biggest piece of nows
in tho world, any moro than a military
commander will violate n ling of truce,
but yonr good journalist will lead his
enemy into ambush when ho can.

AN INFANT IN CUSTODY.
Why Pretty I.lttlo Nelllo Iitultl Is m
Prisoner.
Nclllo Itudd is 0 years old, and a pretty,
innocent littlo child, yet rIio Is nn intnnto
of tho Will county jail, at Jollot, Ills., and
must rcinnln In custody of tho slicrltt for
somo timo to como. A trial Is pending for
hor possession between hor mother, Kate
Nolson, nnd hor fogtcr parents, Mr. nnd
Mrs. Itudd. Nclllo was born In tho poor
houso. Three months after that event Miss
Nelson signed tho baby over to Mr. Van
T
Niai.lK HUM),
Arsdale, superintendent of a Chicago
fomullliiKs' homo. Ho In turn transferred
his charKO to tho Hudds, who havo raised it
thus far and havo grown much attached to
thowlnsoino littlo tiling. Ncllto's father
recently died and loft 1 1.C0O to tho mother
for tho benefit of tho child. Miss Nelson's
first movu was to abduct Nolllo.
Tho foster parents with officers followed
tho woman to Chicago, thonoo to Mokona
and Uticn and back to tho poor house,
where tho child was recovered. Tho claim
ants then souuht tho courts. Nolllo lay
asleep in Mrs. Itudd's arms when tho court
ordered her i nto tho possession of tho sheriff
pending tho trial. Wlicn a deputy sheriff
took tho child In his arms to carry It to tho
Jail residence both women burst Into twira.
Tho foster parcnta failed to get an order of
court when thoy adopted tho child, relying
on tho papers signed by both tho real
motlier and Superintendent Van Aralale,
Oalilei "Hoodooed'.' by Importer. .
"Hoodoo" is a wool that is generally
thought to havo its origin hi tho African
term "voudoo." At any rate, no mnttcr
what its genesis, tho expression Implies the
poAHviwIon of malefic powers. A hoodoo is
like ono endowod with the evil uyo what
ever attracts hid attention meets disaster.
Tho lntest phaso of tho hoodoo business
hns to do with newspaper reporters, mora
particularly those pencil experts living in
Cincinnati. Tho superintendent of the
zoological gnrdon at that place, Mr.
Stephen by namo, recently asserted in un
ambiguous language that tho reporters
killed babies. Ho recovered his listeners
from their shock of surprise and horror by
tho supplemental statement that the
babies woro not human, nnd thnt tho jour
nalistic method was ono of indirection.
Then ho continued:
As noon as any of our young animals gat writ
ten up they dla. Look at our giraffe). And when
tho srlzzly boars wcro born wo said not a word
about them In public. Ono wo left with his
mother and tho other I took and began to ralso
on a tmttle.
Ono day ono of tho nowspaper men camo out
and saw tho grizzly baby getting Its bottle Ho
wrote It up at length and tho lltUo thing oouldnt
stand It, It died at onco. And so whon wo havo
moro babies out hero wo will ltoop thorn under
cover unUl thoy get big enough to stand tho hoo
doo of nowspaper publicity.
A Physician's Estimato of Quinine.
Dr. William B. Clarko, of Indlannpolia,
I ml., well known as an alienist nnd author
ity on all matters rclntivo to insanity, re
cently prepared a paper which ho entitled
"A Study of Suicide" Ono paragraph In
tho nrticlo cannot fail to bo of gonoral In
terest. It is this:
I feel confident that a frequent causo of sulctdo
bos been generally, If not entirely, overlooked,
and so am lm polled to utter a word of warning
regarding it, vU., tho rockloss uso of qutntno,
especially Its uso unauthorized by a physician.
Any ono uho knows tho pathogcnotlo ability ot
quinine, or rather Its ability to causa symptoms
or perturbations In tho well or nearly well person.
especially brain and norvo symptoms, cannot
deny that it posaoflsoa thnpowcr to produce a con
dition nearly olliod to Insanity, lr, lndood, It prac
tically falls at all short of Insanity. In largo
doHcH It Is a doprosftant, Instead of a stimulant,
contrary to tho popular bcllof, and It Is tho most
popular and universal ovory day amateur remedy.
ISvrrybod iawm to tako It, and for any and
ovcry allnirnL It U reasonably easy ot proof
that many Insanities, suicides and murders can
bo traced dtrw Uy to tho 111 advised and Inordi
nate uxo of quinine.
