It is more than a pup and It was very seldom allowed to go out of the house. Yesterday afternoon the little animal succeeded In getting out of doors, but was missed In a short time and a search made for It. When It was found the throat had been cut completely across but not deep enough to kill the animal.

Washington, April 18.—The United States Supreme Court, Judge Peckham writing the opinion, holds to be unconstitutional the New York State law making ten hours a day's work and sixty hours a week's work in bakeries in that state. New York. April 18.—One hundred and eighty of the 220 Equitable agents, who have come to this city from every state in the Union to take part in today's conference, held a caucus last night and adopted, a resolution indorsing James W. Alexander personally and expressing confidence in the president's integrity. Washington, April 18.—On the opening day of the senate Interstate committee's hearings on railway rate legislation an hour and a half was-spent in executive session considering a programme for the hearings. The preliminary arrangements made by Chairman Blkins were approved. The committee will meet at 11 o'clock each day, and the sessions will continue until 5 in the afternoon. Hie power to fix rates, regulate car lines and terminal facilities and other cognate matters will be considered.Tokyo, April 18. — Rojestvensky's squadron of warships departed 011 Saturday afternoon from Knmrnuh bay and lias been deflnitely located in Callao bay, about 240 miles nortli of its previous position. The Japanese torpedo flotilla. "A." commanded by Lieutenant Shlgetaka Sekl, observed the enemy's anchorage at 7:40 last evening. No fewer than twenty colliers were near the battleships. The cruiser and volunteer division of the fleet were a little farther south at Cape Bnntnnga. Nine torpedo boat destroyers were with the fleet. Experiences Similar to This Have Occasioned Considerable Comment in It is alleged bj a witness that one of the boys in an endeavor to hasten the exit of those who had received passes shouted" "Fire!" Immediately those at the top of the stairs faced about and madly began to force a way to the bottom. Shrieks and physical encounters followed, and those at the top became so closely entangled that a mass of boys fell clinging to each other on the struggling mass of youths at the bottom. Few women are bettor known in Liockport, X. Y., than Mrs. Pattie D. Hall, as she belongs to one of the best families and has a large circic of friends and acquaintances. In a recent interview Mrs. Hall said: Plttston OhenteCl Death. A dissenting opinion was filed Injustices Harlan. White, Day and Holmes.

The resolution «1IC1 not touch upon the official nets of Mr. Alexander nor upon tlio charges which have been made it gainst hint by the friends of James H. Il.vde, hut left open the question of Mr. Alexander's responsibility for the present conditions in the Equitable as something to be decided by the events of the conference. "The experience I have been through in the last two years seems like a miracle. I was so badly off that life seemed almost unendurable and my deafness increased so that I could scarcely hear anything. The suffocation in my chest and the indigestion caused by my catarrh, produced very severe suffering. I had five different physicians, bought everything that anybody recommended to me, but finally gave up in despair. The opinion was handed down in the case of Lochner vs. the Stale of New York and was based on the ground that the law interferes with the free exercise of the rights of contract between individuals.

This fleet comprises the first class battleship Nicoloi, the armored cruiser Monomaeh and three ironclads of doubtful value. The first two ships are among the best in the Russian navy, and it now seems clear that Kojestvensky in the two weeks he has been in the China sea had for his chief purpose the picking up of this valuable addition to his fleet. The law involved in the case is Section 110 of the New York state labor law, prescribing the hours of labor in bakeries in the state, lochner is a baker in the city of Utica and was found guilty of permitting an employe to work in his bakery more than 60 hours a week, and fined $50.

The meeting lasted from half past 8 o'clock until 11 o'clock. The ntmosl secrecy was maintained by all who attended the caucus, and only the outline of the resolution was made public. The caucus was the result of the efforts of Uage E. Tarhell. the Eqnitnble's second vice president, who is in charge of the agency department. A Secret Caucus. "One day my milliner asked me if I had ever tried Hyomei. I began the treatment and can thankfully testify that Hyomei does cure this terrible disease. Since using it my hearing Is greatly improved, and the only time I have any catarrhal trouble is when I take cold. I then use Hyomei and always get instant relief.

The dividing line between the two factions among the agents was sharply drawn. It became evident early when the delegates began to assemble that both Mr. Alexander and Mr. Hyde had friends among the agents.

At several of these the agents expressed their opinions regarding the conditions existing In the society in language which could not be misunderstood. —Office Was a Mass of The prospects are that the people of Wilkesbarre and the Wyoming Valley are to enjoy professional base ball this year for the first time in several years.

The opinion will cover the power of congress to delegate to a commission the fixing of rates, including the right to reduce rates and force a reduction of expenses; also the constitutional question as to the right of the government to allow differentials between different ports in case rates are fixed. At present differentials in favor of some ports are allowed by agreements among the roads. The question raised is whether the government can allow such differentials if it fixes tile rates. The meeting was called by James W. Alexander after consultation with Mr. Tarbell and has brought the agents from their respective fields of labor between Maine and California. All the expenses of these men. most of whom are accompanied by their wives, are being paid by the Equitable society. Mr. Hyde was not among the first to be invited to attend the gathering, but'an invitation was sent to him. and he accepted it after consulting with his personal advisers.

Jones, of West Pittston, against Frank Savage, justice of the peace, of Duryea. The Commonwealth's case was looked after by the assistant district attorney and Attorney W. H. Gillespie while John M. Carman, Walter Casterlihe and Moses Salsburg we,re the attorneys for the defendant. The suit grew out of trouble that occurred in Squire Savage's office. A Duryea man was being prosecuted for permitting his animals to trespass on property belonging to Mr. Jones, and during the hearing of the case, Jones protested so vehemently against certain rulings of the justice that S(|uire Savage declared him in contempt and summarily had him. locked up In the biA-- ough station house. Later he was released. The contention of the prosecution is that the squire exceeded his authority in having J/mes locked up simmarlly, Inasmuch as he offered to furnish bail. It is also alleged that later in tho evening that the defendant demanded from Jones a .certain sum of money before he permitted. him to be released from the cell. The defense contends that Squire Savage was entirely within his right when he committed Jones to the station house for contempt of his court and also that it was legal for him to impose and collect a fine from Jones -for the alleged contempt. The case was fought out sharply, and a large number of witnesses were examined. At noon today, the case was given to the jurv, and soon after court convened ihis afternoon, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty, dividing the costs between the prosecutor and defendant. 68V Since the adjournment of congress many petitions for and protests against the Eseb-Tqwnsend bill have been received.
