Kane, the Plate Printer, and the Two Colored ‘Women Charged With Abortion. Some daysago when Mrs. Anthony complained ingand printing that John Kane, « plate printer employedin that office, had ruined her daugh- teras published in yesterday's Stax, it was Capt. ‘Meredith's intention to dismiss the young man, but at the réquest of the officers he was kept on the roll so he would be where the officers could get him when they procured the warrant. Kane and the two colored women, Sarah Ross and Adele Beckett, were held in custody last night and this morning they.were arraigned before the Police Court. The charge against them was abortion, Kane was represented by Mr. Andrew Lips- comb and the women's interests were looked after by Mr. Browning. Mr. Mullowney represented the government. Counsel for thedefendants agreed to waive the examination, and a discussion as to the amount of bail followed. Mr. Browning thought that €200 bail was sufficient for his clients, who were poor persons. He thought that Mr. Lipscomb s client, who was wealthier than the women, might be abie to give a higher amount of bail. Mr. Lipscomb remarked that none but, the wealthy could enjoy his sorvices, “but,” he added, ‘they'll bo poor when they’ get through. Mr. Lipscomb called the court's attention to the law, which was enacted by the legislative assembly, being dated January 19, 1872. ‘The section under which the defendants were charged, he said, made such an offense a_mis- demexnor and fixed the maximum penalty at ono year in jail. Judge Miller sent the caze to the grand jury and fixed the bail at +500 as to each defendant. Mr. Peter Harvey was uccepted on Kane's bond and the Inter was thereupon released. —— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, New York Stock Market.

THE FEDERA ELECTION BILL, Proposed Amendments to the House Bill and Senate Substitute. Senator Faulkner yesterday offered several amendments to the federal election bill, both to the Houre bill and the Senate substitute. ‘They embrace the following points: An amend- ment to the House bill strikes ont the provision requiring supervisors to observe and scrutinize the manner in which naturalizations are made. It also strikes out the provision of the bill authorizing the canvassing board to consider other papers than statements and certificates made by the’snpervisors of election. Thisamend- ment would limit the powers of the cunvassing board to a simple tabulation of the returns. Another amendment limits the term of office of the chief supe sor to a period of two years from the date of hix appointment, altering that provision which gives him the ‘right to hold rou the date of his appoiutment so long as he ix faithful and capable. In addition it pro- vides for the appointment of the supervisors by the district instead of the circuit court of the United State limits the right of the chief supervisor to as- sign any supervisor of election to any poll, 80 s to except an election precinet in. the coun in which, the supervisor resides. Under the House and Senate bills the supervisor could be assigned to any precinct within. the congres- sional district in which he resides. 1 another amendment strikes out the para- graph which provides a special inquiry as to naturalized American: ens, On ground that it draws 4 distinction in the right to ex- | amine as to the qualifications of the voter be- tween American citizens and naturalized citi- zens. vis pro to amend section 24 of the Sen- ate substitute by providing that a commis- sioner of the court und not the chief super- visor shall administer oaths to supervisors of election and special depaty marshals at a com- pensation of 25 cents each. An xmendment is proposed to the section of the Senate rub- stitute (which prol the removal of ballot boxes from the room during an election), 80 as to conform to certain state practices where the canvansers begin the court as soon as 50° votes are cast. Senator Butler also proposed an amendment to thet section of the Senate substitute which specities the places and manner in which elec- tions are to be supervised, 80 a8 to strike out the congressional district, cities of more than 20,000 inhabitants, parish, towus and election precincts and a’ requirement of supervision ‘upon petition from citizens. In place thereof the amendment proposes supervision under the following general condition: “The chief super- visor of clection for each judicial dis: of the United States shall e such action as may be requisite to seoure such supervision in every congressional district as is provided by the laws of the United States.” + THE NEW COLLECTOR, Sherman A.

TWO-COMMISSIONERS-A-QUORUM BILL AMENDED— THE LIQUOR LICENSE QUESTION TO BE CON- SIDERED NEXT TUESDAY—THE DISTRICT APPRO- PRIATION BILL. The House District committee held its fi regular meeting for the session this. morning and, while only one bill was reported, the con~ mittee decided to take up a ‘question in the early portion of next week which is of vital to importance the District and on which the action of the committes will be watched with This is the question of a new law for the District. TWO COMMISSIONERS A QUORUM. The committee today, in accordance with the Tequest of the Commissioners, decided to favorably report the bill drafted at the District building providing th sioners shall constit) iquor license quorum for the trans- action of business. ond that in case of the ab- sence of the Engineer Commissioner his as sistant shall perform the duties of Engineer Commissioner required by , it provide that two Com- missiouers shallgconstitute a quorum for trans- acting all business, excepting the making and tigning of contracts. THE LIQUOR LICENSE QUESTION. The committee then decided that on Tuesday next at 10 o'clock the full committee should take up and consider the liquor license ques- tion in the Distri The two bills drawn up by the Coumissioners on this subject will form the basis “of the discussion alt though it is thought that neither ‘of these bills will be reported without many amendments, mittee look on the Smportang one and Members of the com- license question as a very one in which something Jd be done at once. On the other hand, do not wish to make any mistakes in the matter, and eeveral members think the Com- mers’ Dill rather stringent in certain par- The subcommittee, consisting of Messrs. Grout, Hemphill, Barton and Moore, to whom the liqur bilis were referred, will make no re- tite bills, but will ‘simply refer the iatter to the full committee for full ar- gument and discussio: THE PEN The first license NG BILLS. 7 pill presented by the Com- missioners provides for a wholesale license of $300 and a retail of $600; no liquor is to be sold to tinors, intoxicated persons or inmates of the Soldiers’ Home, or on Sanday or between 12 midnight and 4a.m. The penalties are from £300 to 2600 and for the second. offense from $600 to $1,000 and imprisonment in Washington Asylum from six months to one year, or both. ‘Two-thirds of residents and property hold on side of square and on side of squ opposite must be obtained to license and no license will be issued within 400 feet of a public school or to any one convicted (or p ing an appeal) of violating the license law during the preceding year or convicted within two years of selling without a license. Em- plexes of the District are burred from receiving licenses and in the county there must be 1,000 feet between saloons. No woman, excepting the wite or daughter of the proprietor, is to sell or serve the liquor and no pool, billiards, &e., are to be played in the same room with the bar. ‘Then in ihe first bill is provided that only 400 licenses shall be issued. ‘The second bill in many particulars is like unto the first. It does noi restrict the li to 400. The license fee is the same and it con- tains the same provisions in regard to minors, intoxicated persons und inmates of the Soldiers’ Home and also as to who shail not receive li- censes. It requires two-thirds of the property holders and residents and does not allow liquor to be sold inany place having entrance to any theater or in any theater. ‘ AGAINST THE FOUR HUNDRED LMT. The committee will probably not come to any conclusion at the meeting Tuesday. It ia thought, however, that the bill reported, if one is reported, will not contain a clause limiti the number of,licenses to 400. —_ DISTRICT APPROPRIATIONS.

Hefore the next meeting Senator In- galls will consult with the Commissioners and the attorney for the District-as to amendments which were snggested in committee.
