The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations to day, through Senator Lodge, reported a reso lution authorizing the President "to take such measures as he may deem neces sary to obtain tademaitv from the Span ish.

The resolution is based noon the Aim.

In presenting the resolu ion Senator Lodse submitted a written .report, from which is appears that Bolten is a native of Sweden and Richelieu of France. though both are naturalized Americans They were. sailors and had drifted to Port au Prince. Hayti from New York. Armed with passports 'as Americans. on February 5th, 1895. they set out in a small boat belonging to them to fish for green turtle, intending to drift to Cape Haitien. They were driven bv stress of weather to the Cuban coast. From this point the report proceeds: "Temporary landings were affected at one or two points and finally, almost destitute of food and water and after drifting for several days.' they reached Santiago de Cubi. The testimony dis closes that they at once produced their papers for inspectioa to the captain of the port, explained their distress and aiked to be directed to the United States Consul. Notwithstanding these admitted facts, they were seized by the military authorities on i February 23rd and thrown into a prison, from which they were not released until May 8rd following:. Durlntz this impruonment both men were kept in close confine ment much of the lime, and both suffered ereat injury to health. Bolten contracted yellow fever. The committee expresses the opinion that the seixore of the men is in violation of Article 8 of the Spanish-American treaty of 1795. and tbat the military pro cec dines against them violated the pro tocol oi 1877. in view of the fact tbat uoon their apprehension a most rigid search failed to disclose upon them arms, papers or other evidence' of unlawlnl in tent. -Bolten and Richelieu. . the report cnnclndes.

Clemens, first uen jaama:, when he cornmenced 'to write for Joe Goodman's Territorial fetter prise in Virginia City, Nev.,about xooo, as corresponaent from Esme ralda district, where he mined for a living, was Josh. The fun aid hu mor that bubbled up in his fetters tickled the Washoeites an1 imalo the TJaner sought after: -Thoi for him, and he came, gladlyfrelin quishing the pick and shoveL the windlass and the bucket. tAr journalist's pen. Mr. Clemens! came to Virginia City dressed in the"usual garb of a mmerwell worn at that, and demeaned himself with 1 nil ii miner's freedom. He had alsi, in a greaterxdegree than subsequently, ine exceptional arawi in his speeoh which he chose to censider one fac tor in the sum of his distinctive in dividuality. He took readily ito re porting the varying fortunes of the mining community and strengthen ed the writing force on The Enter prise materially, while at the'same time availing himself of legitimate opportunities to acquire "fet". in the Comstock and shares in different outlying mines. He was accounted quite rich in this kind of prdferty at one time. With liberal remunera tion for hjs work, his personal ""ap pearance rapidly improved, and he grewJLo, be a swell ih a mild way, besides oleaner in speech as well as in dress.- ' .,! Becoming dissatisfied with his pen dame Josh, he changed it to Mark Twain, by which at the present day he is known in the literature of the world. . I :. About 1864 Mr. Clemens came to Ban Frapcisco. It cannot be said he made many friends in Nevada. There were scone who affected his companyjon account of his writings, but he had not the faculty of win ning friendship. ( Before he arrived in the city he had accumulated, as before stated, a good deal of money, every stiver of j which he sunk in Hale & Norcross. Then he took up the burden of literary life again. He wrote San Francisco letters . to his old paper, The Territorial Enter prise, and for some real or fancied cause attacked the local police so persistently and fiercely that Mar tin Q. J. Burke, who was chief of the force at the time, brought al suit for libel against the paper. Such envenomed communications as Mr. Clemens wrote on this subject joave rarely been penned. They made the official equanimity of the old j city hall boil like a caldron of asphaltum, the fume and stench being in pro-, portion. He also contributed: for Charley Webb ("Inigo") to The! Cal ifomian for The Golden Era, and did all sorts of literary work "w! lere by he could turn a cent : It was a terrible uphill business, and a less determined man than himself w ould have abandoned the struggle and remained at the base. Mr. Clemens was at Steamboat Springs, Nev , foT his health., when " the letter was written offering him a place on The Call. He came down shortly after, but judging from his appearance fortune had been playing "scurvy tricks with him in the interim. With out doing the gentleman any injus tice it can be freely stated that al though at the time a good general writer and correspondent, he made but an indifferent reporter. He only played at itemizing. j Considering his experience in the mountains, he had-an inexplicable aversion to walking, and in putting his matter on paper he was, to use his own expression, "slower than the wrath to come." Many funny and characteristic incidents occur red during his few months' stay on The Call. He only wanted to remain long enough, he said, when he en gaged to go to work, to make "a Btake," but on leaving his purse was no heavier than when he came. The most notable thing he did! that can now be recalled was a philippio against some undertaking employ ees, where the morgue happened to be, for the deadhouse in those days, like the old fashioned plan with the country schoolmistress and the vil lagers, was "boarded round,", each undertaker accommodating the cor oner in turn. It appears some one about the place refused to give Mr. Clemens information or to let; him gee "the elate," and next morning he got ; such a dose, commencing "these body snajtchers," that' a gen eral apology was immediately made by every man in the establishment. The proprietor was east at the time, but when he read the article he shivered, as he confessed afterward, and considered his business ruined. Mr. Clemens parted from The Call people on the most , friendly terms, when it was found necessary to make the local department more efficient, admitting his reportonal snortcom intra and exuressing surprise that thevwere not sooner discovered.

A bishop who, being still ialive, has not reached his turn for posthumous anecdotes, and must consequently be, nameless entered the shop in full attire, and seeing Lord Aylesbury bareheaded mistook him for a shopman.

' KEEP OPEN ALLNIGHT- MANY INDUSTRIES THAT DO BUSI- NESS AT STRANGE HOURS. The UtI Continnallr Growing Fhotog t - vaphers aad jtwyer Among- the jLatest ' Becralta A Big Night Business In Type- '" writing; ' ? Thegna "Open All Nia-ht" and "Nev- 'Closed" are becoming less rare oontlnu: ally, and new branches Of industry are be ing added to the old time all night truffio. The druggist, the undertaker and the deal er in solid and liquid refreshments had the monopoly for a long time. One ol the first additions to the recognized all night places was the "dental parlor," which waa opened in the hotel district. The illu minated sign caused muoh comment at first, but soon other all night dental offices were opened, and it became evident that a permanent addition had been made to the list of night toilers. i :'j ;. "Our place Is frequently visited by peo ple who have) no need for a -dentist's serv ices," said an all night dentist. "We are asked to paint discolored faces and to make people presentable whose faces show signs of having been roughly dealt with, and we even have calls from ' men who think that we keep a corps of barbers. - We have often helped people who have been in distress because of a broken brace or in strument without which they could not.be about. But the men who come to De painted and shaved have to go elsewhere. Many a man who came to town at an hour when dentists' offices were closed has found relief from hours of suffering and inconveninoe by coining here, and we have, many regular customers also who live in New York and save time by having their regular dental work done at night." There are places also where one may have the services of a stenographer and typewriter at any hour of the night The business done by these places la growing constantly.-- By spending an evening : in an up town office of this kind one can form an Idea of the amount of clerical work that is done after the regular . business hours. One night recently eight men were kept busy until dawn making a copy of specifications for some government work. The document had to be ready for delivery' at-7 o'clock the jf next morning, and the "all night" typewriting offloe, with a corps ,of rapid ; writers, made It possible. In pases where attachments or seizures are to be made early In the day and facts in the oases were not known until after office hours, these typewriter offices are also called upon, and all sorts of legal work are rattled off on the machines at hours when few typewriting machines are available. ; "It would be hard to enumerate all the work which comes to this office," said an all night: typewriter. "Some of our men fleep here, and, while they may have little , to do sometimes, they are i overcrowded with work many 'nights, 'and they can never know what will turn up next. Peo ple from the hotels come to dictate private letters. Newspaper men who send New York letters to out of town papers wait till the last moment and then come here to dictate the stuff." ; .-.j) The out of town buyers are good cus tomers for the night offices j They spend their days ln the wholesale district and go to the theaters and see the! sights with salesmen at night, and when they reach their hotels early in the morning feel lit tle like writing business letters. To them the all night offices, where they can dictate letters and tell how hard they have been working and how fatigued fthey are from their day's exertions, are a source of great comfort, j " ',- - I i . Some time' ago an east side photographer had to keep his place open long after mid night to allow workmen to make repairs . to his place which if made in the daytime would have interfered with business. In the course of the evening ' he had many calls from people who thought bis place open for business, and the, cicrumstance led to another all night industry. There are several all night photographio estab lishments in that part of the city now, and many sallormen and others who make np the walking population of the Bowery "sit for pictures" there. Among the best cus tomers of these places of business are the young men and women who go to fancy dress parties and want pictures of their costumes, and tho little waiting rooms fre quently contain grotesque representations of historical and mythological characters altlng to be taken. ! i ; I One of the most recent recruits to the all night ranks is the never closed lawyer. One firm of that kind has offices In the bnsiness part of this city for the day prac tice and another office in the hotel district, where clients are seen and advised at any time between 6 p. in. and' 6 a. m. The firn) consists -of a lawyer and his wife. ' They are commissioners for nearly all the states in the Union, and their office prac tice in the up town branch is large and of a varied character. i ,t lit "Some people on then: way to Europe delay procuring passports Until the last moment, and then, when their traps are already on the way to the steamer, come here to be helped out of their trouble," said the lawyer in speaking of the many kinds of clients who come ito him. "We have cases of that kind every week during the summer. Then people come here to get advice on all imaginable subjects. We keep blanks for all sorts of business, and are called upon to write deeds, draw affidavits, take depositions and draw wills. Merchants have called here after midnight to make out assignment papers, and oth ers have roused me to draw the necessary documents for making an attachment of merchandise. ; .; I ! "Of course if a man comes to do 50 cents' worth of swearing in. the small hours we are opt to say that the shop is closed for business. But if we are asked to draw a will the hour makes no differ ence. A couple came here a few weeks ago and wanted me to direct them to a justice of the peace. They wanted to have the marriage ceremony performed, and they bore the signs of the runaway couple, al though I knew they were both old enough to have a right to make a contract for bet ter or for worse. They would: not go to" a clergyman because they were bf different faiths, and. here they were, Tjaggage in hand, wanting to get married. I explained that I might draw up papers for them Which, If signed,"would be as binding as any marriage cewemony. j Acivil marriage contract was drawn, signed, sealed and de livered in the presence of my partner, and the couple went away happy. "- New York Tribune, p ' ''" ' i Historic Documents. 1 With the usual luck of Chicago and its institutions, the Historical society of that city has just fallen heir, under peculiar cir cumstances, to a large collection oi very valuable old documents relating to early transfers of land from tho Illinois Indians to white settlers. Years ago these papers came into the possession of Henry M. Sing er, then a resident ofj Chicago. He after--ward determined to remove to1 California, and a friend of his; S. H. Kerfoot, told him that he ought to give the papers to the Historical society. He did not do so, but turned them over to Mr. Kerfoot, saying: "Keep the documents, and ' if 1 1 die first, give them to the society. II you die first, 1 will send for tbem and may change my mind about their disposition. ' By a sin gular chance both men died on the same day, but the death of Mr. Singer took place 12 hours before that of his friend. The deeds have now been1 handed j over to the Chicago society.

Br Teiecmrn to the Mornicg Stat. New York. July 7 The cotton mar ket opened steady, .with August two points lower and the rest of the list one to two points higher on the first call. Prices subsequently advanced five to six points. Liter the market turned weak and became very tame, losing two to four points from the best prices of the morning, but again . showing de cided strength and' erasing steady i at a net advance of five to fix points. The eatly firmness was the result of rumors of injury: to tbe crop in Texas and Arkansas by protracted ' drought and in tense heat. At the same ' time early cables were quite as good as expected and Liverpool traders were icclined to buy, confining themselves, however. chiefly to the. Summer months. The new crop positions developed, relatively, more strength than the old crop months later in the session, on renewed reports of injury to the Texas crop through hckof moisture and protracted, exces sive beat, leaving the crop of that State in a precarious condition, and a sharp rally took place just before the close.
