A Lenient Pawnshop.
The Monta di Pieta at Rome, which
has existed ever since 1583, is probably
the mo9t lenient pawnbroker's shop in
the world. Any person who brings a
pledge may borrow from $15 to $25
without paying any interest, but all that
is lent above that sum is paid for at the
rate of two per cent per annum. At the
end of two years, if the pledge is not re¬
deemed nor interest on the money paid,
it is sold and the overplus of the debt is
laid by for the owner, who has it in his
power to demand it within 100 years.—

Appointments in the Various Depart¬
ments—Proceedings of the Senate.
THE SENATE.
Each day’s recurring session of the
senate shows a diminishing attendance of
senators. At the opening Friday the
vacant chairs were much more numerous
than the occupied ones. A call of the
senate, however, had the result of gath¬
ering in the chamber forty-seven senators,
four more than a quorum. The resolu¬
tion for a trip of tne committee ou com¬
merce to the Pacific coast for the pupose
of deciding on the relative advantages oi
San Pedro and Santa Monita for a deep
water harbor, was taken up and agreed
to. A resolution was offered by Mr.
Voorhees and referred to the committef
on interstate commerce instructing that
committee to inquire into the subject of
the recent judicial decisions at Toledo,
O., as to the rights and duties of railroad
employes and to report whatever legisla¬
tion iqay be necessary to protect the
natural rights of working people. The
speech begun by Mr. Hoar Thursday
against the constitutional amendment foi
the popular election of fenators of the
United States was concluded by him.
Tbe senate then adjourned.
The decisions of Judges Taft and
Ricks in Ohio and Speer in Georgia in
relation to the right and duties of rail¬
road employes came up in the senate
Monday in connection with a resolution
instructing the comintetee on interstate
commerce to inquire into that and other
subjects, and quite a long and interest¬
ing debate resulted, which ha 1 not clos¬
ed when tho senate adjourned. The
remarks of Senator Gorman and Voor¬
hees as to the effect of those decisions
being to convert railroid employes into
serfs and galley slave?, were criticised
by Mr. Platt as intemperate and merely
tending to excite the passions of
laboring men. A resolution for a
committee to wait on the presi¬
dent and inform him that the senate
ia ready to adjourn sine die, was offered
and agreed to without questoD; but sub¬
sequently a motion to reconsider was
made by Mr. Hoar and entered to be
called upon hereafter. Mr. Hoat’s rea¬
son for moving determination, to reconsider was under¬
stood to be his if possible,
to force the senate to take action in the
North way of Dakota. investigating Senator Roach, of
Resolutions to investi¬
gate Mr. Roach’s case and that of Mr.
Power, of Montana, were offered by
Senators Hoar and Chandler and went
over without action. In pursuance of
the same purpose, Mr. Hoar successfully
resisted a motion to proceed to executive
business.
The democratic succeeded in fotc'ng
an executive session Tuesday morning in
face of tbe combined republican oppesi-
tion. As soon as Monday’s jour al was read
a motion to proceed to executive business
was made by Mr. Gorman and antago¬
nized by Mr. Hoar. The vote was taken
by yeas and nays, and the motion wat car¬
ried—39 to 161, a strict party vote.Ptfftr

A SHORT CROP
Is What President W’addell Says in Re¬
gard to Cotton in Georgia.
The depression in the cotton market is
attributed largely to tbe impression that
the acreage has been increased this
spring. than Middling is now 2 cents lower
it was a few months ago. To the
south this means a large sum in the ag¬
gregate. Tbe idea that the acreage is
smaller this spring than last is duj in a
great measure to the increased sale of
commercial fertilizers. Colonel John O.
Waddell, president of the State Agricul¬
tural In Society, says that th s is a mistake.
for speaking of the matter to a reporter
the Atlanta Constitution, Col. Wad¬
dell S9id:
“I have made a thorough investigation
of the acreage in Georgia and can sny
positively that it is not larger than it
wns last year. My inquiries have ex¬
tended all over Georgia and in no sec¬
tion do the facts warrant the report that
there is a general increase in acreage.
This investigation bas been made care¬
fully. it extended from Thomasville
and Albany to Macon; from Savannah to
Macon; from Augusta to Atlanta; to the
western side of the state and all through
the upper counties. In fact, ihe entire
6tate is embraced in the inquiries.
Everywhere the impression is attributed
to the larger demand for fertilizers.
No one has explained the increased
consumption of commercial fertilizers
properly this spring. We all know that
cotton seed was higher this season than
ever before and that the farmers
sold out all they had. I know farmers
who never sold a bushel of seed before,
who, this season, sold all they bad. To
raplace it they have had to buy commer¬
cial fertilizers. To supply the seed re¬
quired au immense amount of commer¬
cial phosphates. Factories have been
running night and day and it was thenat-
ural impression that more cotton was be¬
ing planted. But it is a mistake to suppose
so. Another thing is that the farmers
are planting more corn this spring and
are fertilizing it. The consumption for
corn is larger than heretofore by thous¬
ands of tons. The planters swapped seed
for fertilizers, thinking they would m tlce
money and they probably did. The
buyers helped prices last fall and the farm¬
ers were benefitted. The buyers still
have plenty of the cotton. They cannot
get out on it at present prices and so
long as tho market is depressed the
farmers feel it, for they cannot get ns
much advanced to make their crops. It
ia my opinion that the reports secured
through the bureau# of the state and the
national government have been based
largely on the increased sale of fertiliz¬
ers, the absence of the cotton seed not
being tainly, taken into consideration. Cer¬
so far as Georgia is concerned,
there is no increase in the acreage, and
the same explanation which applies to
this state applies to the other cotton
states.”
TENNESSEE’S LEGISLATURE
Adjourns After an Important Session.
Some of the Laws Enacted.
A Nashville Special of Monday says:
The revenue bill has gone to the gover¬
nor, and among its most startling fea¬
tures is the tax ef $50,000 per annum ou
bucket shops or dealers in futures.
There were many amendments made by
the senate and the house refused to con¬
cur. At a late hour in the afternoon the
senate passed the appropriation bill with
fifty-two amendments. The house con¬
curred in thirty-seven, but there were
fifteen, most of them raising salaries of
clerks, that the house nonconcured in.
In the senate Judge Julius J. Dubose
appeared with his counsel in answer to
the senate summons, and speaker Dis-
makes announced that immediately after
the ad j lurnment at midnight the court
of impeachment would convene under
the presidency of the chief justice of tho
supreme court.
The appropriation bill occupied the
greater portion of the day. The com¬
mittee considering the controversy with
the penitentiary lesses to be composed
ot the governor, secretary of state and
claim, comptroller but to compromise the state’s
the report was not acted on.
The house by a vote of 54 to 35 passed
Mr. Goodwin’s state bank bill, which
provides for the issue of circulating
notes. Mr. Hicks’ hilt putting a 5 per
cent, tax on all property left out of the
regular order of inheritance to children
issue was passed. Tbe bill authorizing the
of $600,000 in bonds for peniten¬
tiary purposes passed by a vote of 52 to
40. During the consideration of
amendments Speaker Trousdale refused
to allow republicans to force a calling of
the roil on the ground that their action
was manifestly dilatory.
The bill compelling insurance compan¬
ies in cases of total loss to pay the full
amount named in the policies passed, 72
to 10. The bill allowing the placing of
insurance outside the s’ate was iejected,
32 to 53. The bill appropriating $45,-
000 for the maintenance of a natural
guard, or so-called standing army was
passed after failing once for want of a
constitutional majority.
THE END.
The house met at 7:30 and tbe senate
at 8 o’clock Monday night, the inten¬
tion being after getting the appropria¬
tion bill through to pass as many of the
more important bills as possible before
midnight, when the assembly adjourned
sine die.

The department of state was informed
Wednesday by telegram from San Francis¬
co of the arrivalof the steamer Austria an¬
nouncing the arrival of Commissioner
Blount at Honolulu on the 29lh of March.
As tbe steamer left port just after the
revenue cutter, Rush, arrived, there was
nothing in the telegram beyond the mere
fact of his arrival.
THE FIGHT IS ON.
Tie Crisis in Central Railroal Affairs
Has Been Reached.
The Richmond Terminal People Ask
for Mr. Corner^ Dismissal.
A great surprise was sprung on the
United States court at Savannah Tues¬
day ing whatever, afternoon, when, without any warn-
York, Henry Crawford, of New
attorney for the Richmond Term¬
inal, had addressed the court and stated that
he just filed two motions. One
nsked that Receive Comer of the Cen¬
tral system be discharged and all con-
tracts under the receivership be annulled
on the grond of illegality. The other
moved that the order of Judge Speer in
regard to the reorganization committee
authorizing aside loans to the Central be set
on the ground that said orders
were and imprudeut, irregular and erroneous
that the court had no jurisdiction
whatever in the cause to enter aucb
orders and that the same are entirely void.
These motions were filed under the
Rowena Clarke bill, which placed the
Central in the hands of a r<c*iver.
The case of the Central Trust company
vs. the Central railroad had been called
before Judge Pardee and everything was
progressing calmly when these motions
were read and fell like a thunder clap on
the lawyers assembled.
Judge H. B. Tompkins made an argu¬
ment for the Central Trust company,
asking the appointment of an independ¬
ent receiver for the Savannah ai d West¬
ern on the ground that it was a competi¬
tive system with the Central and had not
been properly managed by the receiver.
He was answered on behalf of the Cen¬
tral by Captain Cunningham, who said
that the interests of the Central and the
Savannah and Western were mutual and
affidavits were produced showing that
there was no competition except in con¬
junction with the same roads.
TAKEN BY SURPRISE.
This argument, however, became of
minor importance when the Terminal
people sprung their motions. Mr. W.
G. ford, Oakman, receiver, and Henry Craw¬
attorney for the Terminal, came
down from New York Monday night and
until the case was sprung no one knew
anything about their mL-sioD, which
had an air of mystery about it.
When Mr. Crawford addressed the
court and read the two mo¬
tions under the Rowena Clarke bill above
outlined, Judge Pardee straightened up
to listen to eveiy utterance and every
eye in the court was intent upon the
speaker. Mr. Crawford said he appear¬
ed to represent the Richmond Terminal
Company, which owned 42,000 shares of
Central stock that hid been disfran¬
chised by that court. He charged the
district court with acting in copartner¬
ship with the reorganization committee
and said the court had no right to ap¬
point a receiver for a solvent corporation.
“The proceeding whereby a district
judge takes charge of an iuterstaie sys¬
tem of railroads,” said he, “are most
unusual and entirely without precedent.
The property has been illegally and im¬
properly administered—under authority
of the Court and its receiver—and orders
have been r* n s.; d w’hich will not bear
the test of lvo igation, and are illegal
from beginii.bg to end. I refer to the
order authorizing the receiver to borrow
money without stating in the petition
to the court to what use the money
was to be put. But most unusual of all
was the order authorizing the receiver to
contract a loan with the Hollins syndi¬
cate, and making a contract that the syn¬
dicate could negotiate collateral securi¬
ties belonging to the Central Raihoad
Company ns soon paid. ns its bonds fell due if
they were not This order was most
unusual and without prec-dent and we
shall move that it be annulled and the
receiver discharged.” Mr. Crawford was
in the midst of his argument when tho
court adjourned until Wednesday morn-
ing.

FOUR MEN KILLED
By the Premature Explosion of a
Charge of Dynamite.
At Ladd’s lime works, about two miles
fromCartersville, Ga., Siturday morning,
a most terrible dynamite explosion oc¬
curred. A number of men were drilling
a bole in a rock, and after putting the
explosive in decided to make the result
sure by drilling the hole deeper. In tam¬
pering with the dynamite already placed
a cap wa9 exploded and tbe effect was
most disastrous. James Mayhew and
Robert Jackson, white, and Bill Murphy
and Bedford Brown, colored, were killed.
The first two instantly and the others
died in about an hour. Three other men
were more or less seriously injured.
An English State Secret.
I hope that the revelation I am about
to make may be considered as strictly
confidential. It must not be told across
the Atlantic. It is one of those secrets
which one karns with shame and repeats
in a whisper. It refers, in fact, to the
venerable house of lords. It has to do
with a thing which greatly adds to what
the peerage calls the enjoyment of a
title. It is a secret of the vesti irium, or
robing 100 m. It is no hing less than
the long and carefully c mcenled truth
about tbe coronet. You know that it is
a crimson velvet cap,very soft and pretty
and comfortable, round which is the
gold coronet set with pearls. Now, a
coronet is just a broad circular band, as
everybody knows.
The iroQ crown of Lombardy is such a
band of gold set with great rubies
roughly cut, and without any palliative
of velvet. With the bare crown stuck
firmly on his head there he wns—a king,
just as with bis wig adjusted on his head
there is the other man—a lord chief jus¬
tice. Very well, then. The peer’s cor¬
onet is not of gold at all, lam assured,
by one who knows, that it is of copper
gilt, and that the pearls in it are not
pearls,but silver things as big as pigeons’
eggs. One more illusion is gone. We
shall learn next that the velvet is cotton
vi lvet or sateen or soft merino, or even
red flinnel. Only copper guilt! Is it
possible?—Walter Besant in Loudon

The Argument Used
T the makers of the second-class baking
powders to induce the dealer to push
J§ them off on Royal consumers is that
they cost less than Royal and afford
the dealer much more profit.
But you, madam, are charged the same price
for them as for the absolutely pure Royal, which
is perfectly combined from the most highly refined
and expensive materials. The lower cost of the
others is caused by the cheap, impure materials
used in them, and the haphazard way in which
they are thrown together.
Do you wish to pay the price of the Royal
for an inferior baking powder, made from im¬
pure goods, of 27 per cent, less strength? If
you buy the other powders, insist upon having
a corresponding reduction in price.

It is now a “Nostrum,” though at first it was

after compounding that prescription over a
