Baltimore, Md., May 11. ? The Balti
more American, commenting upon the
* speech of Representative Cushman,
who replied to the tariff specch of Rep
resentative Williams, the democratic
floor lender, very severely arraigns him
for quoting the scripture In a light
vein. It says among other things:
"No ora'.or of the first class finds it
necessary to treat the scriptures in a
vein of irreverence. Such expedients
show excreire poverty of intellect."
This criticism of Representative
Cushman is based upon the latter's
comment upon the frequent repetition
of Representative Williams' speech.
He said he had heard it often during
the seven years he has been io
congress, and that it made him think
of the boarder's commentary at a
boardicg house were it was the custom

resigned air. He was accosted by a
fellow boarder, who spoke of his very |
solemn physiognomy and remarked that I

clined frame of mind. "I am," said i
the tired hash eater, "I am thinking I

not a ripple of applause or other mark
of approval tor the czar or his speech
at the opening of the first Russian par
liament yesterday. Th^ emperor was
received by the members of his legis

more keen as a rebuke t han would have
been a hostile demonstration. In
marked cantrast with the atmosphere,
jhilled almost to the degree of con-j
;emptousness, when the czar read his
bis address was the| warm enthusiasm
which greeted the Aection of Prcf.
Mourontseff to be president of the
parliament. The presiding officer was
given tremenduous cheers which were
long continued.
The czar, wbo opened parliument at
high noon, greeted the representatives '
as ''the best men of my country chosen :
by my command." He said they would
find a difficult work before them to i
bring to their countrymen freedom and
order founded on justice. He failed to i
mention amnesty.
The first speech in the parliament
was made by Ivan Petrunkeitch, a
strong liberalist, who declared that the
first work for the Russian parliament
to do is to demand amnesty for those
who haye fought in the cause of liberty
This was greeted with great applause
in which every member joined and
which continued until the president
rapped the assemblage to order.
As soon as he had restored order
ifter the thrilling words of M. Petrun
keltch Presidens Mourontseff deliverd
his speech, accepting the presidency.
