A bill was Introduced nearly a month ago by Senator Chandler ' for providing the pun- Ishment of wire-lappinI. or , to' use a more hlgh-soundlnl phrase , the stealing of Inter- state news. This measure has been allowed to slumber \hl there sboull have been no difficulty about passing it , late as was the day at which It was Introduced. For the justice or Its provisions Is apparent , and I Is not likely that. a single vote would be cast agaInst It In eIther house were It un- derstood. The offense It Is designed to pun- ish was committed at first only on a small scale and It rare Intervals , but It wi be- come a regular busIness unless cheeled. I was found out In this city some weeks ago : that this thidvery. which had b'een confined chiefly to the dIspatches of commercial bodies was being extended so us to take In those ot the AssocIated press. A gang ot dishonest men was stealing Its news for the colecton of which It paid , and then ped- dung out that news to others As much at the Inteiligence thus stolen Is In course 01 tntelence transmission from one state to another , the subject clearly -cpmes wIthin the Jurisdiction ot the general government whose laws are usually better enforced than those ot the Slales Though the session Is very near In end Senator Chandler ought to make an effort - fort to get his bill before the senate. I he can do that there will not 'be the least trouble about getting a practically unan- Imous vote for It. . - p JI1LTO. " AN ] IlS H101lTHU .
