It Is probablo that n concurront resolution

Senator Hunter's resolution to ask Congress
A to approprlato no money for tho World's l'alr
unless It Is closed on Sunday cainn up in tho
Senate and caused ono of tho religious do-
f bates which is a regular thine in ono House or
the other almost every day. Senator Hooseh
mnred to rotor tlio resolution to tho World's
t'ulr Commissioners from No w Voik. Ho mndo
a spoech commenting on tho Puritan fathers
nd saying that this country should not follow
them in their bigotry and narrowness.
Thaller. Senator Edwards suld that no ono
Wanted tho World's Fulr to be open on Sunday,
and that thoro wero moro than ton millions of
Christian peoplo who wero stronaly opposed to
any desecration uf Sunday. Tliuro was no
reason why tlio World's Fair ntClilCHgo should
not follow the exnmplo of tlio Centennial In
hibition in Philadelphia.
Hunator O'Connor sold that there aro others
in this country than tho ilL-seenc-iints of tho
Puritan fathers. '1 ho Christian relluion Is no
part of tho fundamental law of this country,
and tho .Legislature has no light to discrim
inate in the passage of this resolution against
people of other religions, who observe some
other day than Sunday for their Sabbuth.
"I believe in religion." said Senator Brown.
but I do not think that an observance of tho
Sabbath day best consists in staying lndoom
and praying twenty-four hours. Sunday
should be a day of rest and not ot bondage."
Senator McClelland suld that they might ns
well close up Coney Island as tho World s Fair,
for Coney Island is much wickeder thun tho
World'B frnlrvvould bo.

to tho bill. Ho said that ho was in favor or tho

llevo in designating a commission ot State of

would affect tlio Commission, and ho wanted
to keep religion and politics us far upait u-
possible.
Senator Havtrm ofTored a substitute that tho

should lie substituted for the propo-it'il J'.o.tnl.
bo that any ono who felt wrcrlovoil would uu to

li T. Wood, representing properly holders,
objected tu tlio bill on constitutional grounds.
Ho said that It evaded thoso provisions which
rnfu&otoglvo any Individual or prlvato cor
poration any franchise with Immunity from
taxation. This special giant was practically
saving that tho annexed district shall havo
ono law anil lower New Votk another. This
proposed law would glvo nbsoltito control In
tho annexed district. Its ptnmoters would
never havo to build u bit of extra road If they
did not want to. but could keep out other peo

would be ntlowod to travel so every section of

not opposing rapid transit, but protested

A glib-talking vvoll-drossed Englishman
presented himself at tho olUces of tho New

on Jan. 18, with a letter purporting to bo from

sistant superintendent of that railway, who
was trav oiling in America for railroad Inspec
tion purposes, and requesting nil American
roads to honor Mr. Cook with passes. Mr.
Cook snid ho was nn ox-Captain of tho F.lghty
elghth Connaught Rangeis mid had served in

back, and he got thorn. At his request, tlio
New Jersey Central endorsement was put on

of him on receipt of a letter from Edward
Caulleld. Assistant Treasmer of tho Union P.i
fltlc. stating that do had found tho represen

Jersey Central peopl" against him.
' Kn Jail. :i0 Cook went Into Sidney Billons
private olllee. nt 40 Broadway, and finding Mr.
Caulleld there showed his letter and asked for
passes to Orngon. Mr. C.uilleld was suspicious.
Cook talked a great ileal about himself, stating
this time that ho was nn o-n.ivy ofllcer of
England, and had been Invited to go West In a
private car by Viro-President Webuof tho New
York Central. On inquiry Mr. Canlleld found
that Mr. Webb had never heard of Cook, so ho
lefuseil to giant Cook's request.
U'Slerda) nfternoo'i Cook turned no nt tho

lettei fri.m a Baltimore ami Ohio ofllclul to tho
(leueral buperintundent in Chicago asking
dim to show Mr. Cook through the iaids tit
Newark. No ono bus been ablo to Und out what
this letter means. Mr. Cook wasn't long In
finding out that something was wrong. His
suspicions vvl-ro aroused, ond with reason, for
a policeman had been sent for.
"Just excuse mo a moment." ho said, nnd
he stepped into the hall and started for tho
elevator on tho Liberty street tddo. but tho
elevator boy blocked tho way. Ho turned,
and before any ono could stop him. escaped by
the West Ftrect exit.

So horo are tho throo sldos-that of tho striker,
Mr. Blanchard, tho struck, Mr. Owons.nnd tho

MR. owe;r tells niR btoht.
"Now. young man," ho said, " you've seen

"Now to como to tho point. About thiee
weeks ago wo had a commltteo meeting, and
Col. Shopnrd. who was present, suggested
that wo get a bigger meeting room whoro we
could havo lectures. I got uu then aud moved
that a committee be appointed, consisting of
Col. Shopnrd, myself, and another gentleman,
to consldor tho thing. I believed that as Col.

Charles A. Hess objected to this, saying thnt
ho didn't want tho commltteo to bo run by
Col. Shepard. or something to that effect. I
said: 'Charlie. I'm sorry to hear you spenk
like that. Col. Shepaid is ono of our largest
contributors.'
"A low duys lutor I am coming to the point
now i went to ino treasurers omco io iooi;
over tlio books, just to see how inuuh Mr.
Shopnrd had really contrlbutod. I found that

you think was mr surprise to find that nelllmr

that Blunchard had only paid 5. These wero
the men. mind )u, that worn running the
whole machine. And then. I found, too. that
tho treasurer. Mr. Kcnyon. had been In

Chirk marked o. K. I Informod him that that
was against tho constitution. Ho had paid
out nearly a thousand dollars without a single

fact that this Is in violation ot tlm constitu

Committee must audit and pass upon all hills
before they can bo paid. 1 would like to know
vvhetlierlt is the sense of this meeting thutl
should continue to violate tho constitution.
"Then, sir I'm coming tn tho point,
directly -I got up and began to spe.ik. '.Mr.

words. '1 had Intended, invsnlf. to bilug this

was unparliamentary language, and he took it

somcwhnt frightened by tho colldlon. but no
ono wns hurt on either vesf ol.
Tho llonnoko was bound In. nnd tho Senoen

Capt. J. O. Hiilphers of the lloanoko says ho
doos not wish to imply by Ills story of tlio col
lision Hint tho commander of the Seneca was
In fault All ho knows Is that he saw tho Sen
eca emerge from the mist In the Swash Clinn
nul nearly a mile away. There was plenty ot
loom for bothvcss.'ls If each had understood
which course the other intended to take. Tlm
Boanoko sounded one wdlstlc, vvhlcli meant
thatsho would go to the rigdtof IheSenuea.or
thnt tho vessels would li.iss each other on tho
port hand, presenting "red to led." Capt.
Hulphers doesn't know what was il.uio iibomd
thot-eneca. llo heard no responsive signal,
nnd kept on his cour-o until ho saw that tlio
Seneca wns nppa rent ly determined toerns.shls

and revei. sod at full sperd.
Tho Seneca's st.ubourd Mdonwllho sharp

Itonnoko's cutwater vvn twisted and torn, and
tho rails and bulwarks of tho boncci vveio
smashed. All the passengers on both steam
ships camo on deck In a hurry, mid fur a few
minutes thoro was excltomont bordering on
panic.
The Seneca's commander found out that tho
vesdcl wns not dnmaged utnll below tho water
line, but ho feared, irom tho I adly batteied
orpcniunco of the llouioko's bow. that sho
had lecelved a mortal blow. So tho beuec.t
tinned back und escorted her sister ship to
