The police department received a telegram from North Carolina i yesterday asking that i Rose Nesbitt alias McEavery.mulatto, be arrested upon! her arrival. The charge! against her was embezzle ment. She was found on board of the steamer Gulf Stream, and together with her daughter brought to police headquarters.

' She used it and walked down: the stairs leading to the , street with head erect. The officer at the main entrance, thinking that she had called for the missing child, asked her i she had found her little one. She answered in the nega tive and passed ; out into the street. She was not missed until this morn ing when ; there -was quite a commo tion at the central office, which has always been believed to be safe from the schemes or wiles of law-breakers.

TARIFF REFORM: DEMOCRATIC HARMONY ON THE SUBJECT. ALL WINGS OF THB PARTY. TO WORK TO-GETHEB- VARIOUS CONFERENCES ON THE QUESTION AOCOBDING TO A WASHINGTON PAPER OTHER TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. Washington, Sept 2. The Even ing Star this afternoon publishes the following: "There will lte a measure brought forward by ; the tariff re formers as soon as Congress 'convenes which will likely have the endorse ment of the administration. The Presi dent, Secretary of the Treasury and Speaker Carlisle have been consider ing the matter since Congress ad journed, and it is not improbable that the present visit of Mr. Carlisle to the President at Oak View will re sult in the culmination of their plan. It is possible that the Speaker's visit to ' ashington at this time was ex pressly for the purpose of consulting with th the President upon this subject. It is expected at the treasury de- partment that Secretary Faifchild, who is now on his vacation, will soon return to Washington. It is probable that he comes to meet the President and Mr. Carlisle. 1 The result of the Allentown con vention is quite satisfactory to the tariff reformers. They propose to take advantage of the situation and present a plan for the reduction of the revenues. The plan being pre pared will conform strictly with the tariff resolution fthere adopted as it is construed by the President. It will abolish the tobacco tax but leaves the whiskey tax where it is and will make a large reduction in the customs duties on the necessaries of lif e; in ac cordance withjthe President's utteran ces on the subject. The internal reve nue feature is admitted as a compro mise and will be tolerated only in connection with very positive: reduc tions of customs. There will be no acknowledgment of protection. It is likely that the reduction of cus toms will be more sweeping than Ran dall would agree to, though it is cer tain that the party can be brought to work together harmoniously The Con cress man from Pennsvlvania was in Washington shortly before the Al 1 en town convention and talked the matter over with the President and Secretary Fairchild. Editor Singerly conferred with tha i President like- wige, it will be remembered, in his I yacht on the Potomac. The administration is fully commit ted to a strong attitude on the tariff. While there has been no general con ference of a large number of jxnen in one place, there have been important consultations between individual lead ers and the President. Mr. Mills, of Texas, who is expected to be chairman of the ways and means committee in the next House, is in the city, and has had a conference with Mr. Carlisle. j The Bureau of Statistics has been called upon for figures on 'the cus toms duties, to show just where the most effective redactions can be made and how the revenues' would be ef fected thereby. I "'' v! The Flood in Texaa. J Chicago, Sept. 2. A Timet special from Waco, Tex., says: Every bridge in Hill county was washed: away by the recent rains and the damage to the crops and farms will not fall short of $100,000. In Bosque county and along the line of the Santa Fe railway the damage is also very heavy. Of the little towns here, Iredell, Whit ney, Hico and Aquila have suffered most. The railroad companies have suffered severely. It is -believed the Central & Missouri Pacific roads are the heaviest losers. The Missouri Pacific has a force of nearly 1,000 men at work on the line near Grand I View. A train on the road was de- tained-between ltasea and Grand View from Monday night until yes terday evening. If was out on the prairie 9 miles from any house and many, of the passengers suffered for the lack of food. A TW4. & R. Before the Commission. Washington, D. C. September 2.

The respond ents deny that they have' practiced discrimination, or refused any reason able facilities for the interchange of traffic. The respondents charge in return a" variety of short-comings, past and present, against the complainant. The respondents in conclusion sub mit that the petition of the complain ants .should be 7 dismissed on the ground that "an arrangement for the conduct of through business has al ready been projected and agreed to" by the authorized; agents of the com plainant and the respondent cor porations.

New York, Sept. 2 Ever since Garrett wrote his letter to Mr. Sing erly, editor of the Record of Phila delphia, breaking off the' Ives nego tiations, he has been working to save his B. Ss O. road. Negotiations were continued by him with J. S. Mor gan on'" his arrival in? London, and today an arrangement was announced that is only equalled by that of the West Shore settlement with the New York Central and the of &e Reading syndicate to reorganize that company, j Both of bucso ucaio n3.v uuiicu tux yutfu U y Drexel, Morgan & Co. Edward Lau- terbacn gave a legal opinion today upon the question whether the sterl- ing loan maae Dy tne is. & O. rail road covered the telegraph system of the company. He decided that the telegraph lines were free from all liens and, on receiving this opinion, the agreement in the nature of a preliminary contract was executed. The parties to the contract are the B- & O. R. R. Co.. and a syndicate composed of J. S. Morgan & Co., Baring Bros. & Co., and Brown Shipley & Co., of London; Drexel, Morgan & Co., Kidder, Pea body & Co., and Brown Brothers j and Co., of this city and Drexel & yjo.y 01 i-nuaaeipaia. The most im portant point in the contract provides that the manage ment of the company shall be placed in competent hands i satisfactory to the syndicate. A. J. Cassatt, vice-president of the Penn sylvania R. R., is generally believed to be booked as Garrett's successor. Satisfactory contracts are also to be made with the Pennsylvania and Reading railroads j on all business north of Philadelphia, and with all the other trunk lines entering New York by which all antagonism will be removed and insure a permanent working of the Baltimore and Ohio in harmony with the other trunk lines. In addition to these contracts the line in process of -construction from Philadelphia to New York will be suspended and the work on Staten Island stopped. In consideration of these i contracts being signed, and with the control in their hands, the syndicate agrees to relieve the railroad from its present embarrassment by pro viding $10,000,000 ith which to take up the floating debt.This will be repre sented by $5,000,000 in Baltimore & Ohio consolidated fives and $5,000,000 in preferred stock. The floating debt as it stands amounts to $7,000,000 mostly in the shape of certificates of indebtedness, scrip and notes. Of this amount $4,000,000 is said to have matured on the 1st inst , and was the factor in bringing about the present result. One of the parties to the syndicate says: "All outside enterprises of the Baltimore & Ohio Company will be sold to parties to whom they will be valuable. The Western Union will control: if it does not buy the telegraph lines, and the Pullman Palace Car Co. will take the sleeping-car business. The express business has already gone to the U. S. Express Co. The affairs of the railroad company will bo entirely re organized and placed upon a sound financial basis. ' The clause of , the contract suspend' ing all work on the extension from Philadelphia to New York is believed to be the key-note of the syndicate s interest in the negotiations and is construed to mean that the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad when divested of all extraneous enterprises will be oper ated by the Pennsylvania Railroad.

As there is so much said through the papers in regard to' the expense of running the State prison of N- C. I have, after some reflections in regard to this matter, concluded to ask for mm some lniormauon in regard to tins expense. In the first place are not all the bonds that the State receives for convict labor returned to the rail road companies when the roads are completed ? If so which party re ceives the beneht of this labor, tne State or the railroad corporation? In thje second place are there not men now employed by those corporations who are boarding their children from the State commissary without any thing to show to the State ? Has the State any 'vouchers to show for the board of those families ? Have not some of the overseers on the Western extension of the CT C Railroad even boarded their wives at the expense of the tax-payers ? And since they commenced paying for the board of their wives, do they not still board their children in the same way ? Does not the State furnish sleeping shirts for the convicts, while the farmers of North Carolina (many of them) are unable to afford thia? Now let me ask are there not quite a number of this class besides those on the Carolina Central Railroad? As the prison does not pay its way and adds an additional amount to the tax of everv tax -paver should not this j matter be investigated and see where 1 the trouble is? I have never been an advocate of the State prison, but I am an advocate of right and justice to all parties. It is with no feeling of party strife that I ask for this in formation but at the request of the tax-payers of this section. Truly yours, A. L. Mendenhall. Total Net Receipts of Cotton.

Durliapi Tobaccoplnt. - Last Wednesday a colored man living near Roxboro, hired his neph ew, a boy about twenty years old, to drive a wagon, to Durham, He,, was accompanied by a boy ten or twelve years of age. Returning from Dur ham, the driver is supposed to have had a fit while the small j boy was asleep, and fell from the wagon on to one of the stay-chains, which caught him under the chin, and held him in this position until a wagoner, com ing from the other direction, met the wagon, stopped the team and extrict ed the unfortunate fellow, who was in an insensible condition his throat almost cut from ear to ear, -and badly bruised about the body.

John Jordan, of Chatham, and David Brown and his brother, of Ala mance, were out hunting. Jordan had cocked his gun, to shoot a bird but put the gun back on his shoul der, it seems without letting the ham mer down, and the gun was fired, the load of shot taking effect in the head, face and shoulder of David Brown.
