SUver. r New York, March 7. Representative Catchings, of Mississippi, arrived today and talked Vth aumher of bis demo-4 cratic friends. Hia visit is "one of many .prominent southern democrats have made here" recently and gives rise to interesting political gossip. ! These democrats have made it their business to call on Augustus Van Wyck, whom Croker ran for governor last fall, and to assure Mm that 4f his friends can control the next convention, he wp be nominated for president. ' Democratic visitors from:. the south s&y that Gorman is himself a candidate but merely for the purpose of defeating the aspirations of Bryam, who is said to have not treated Gorman kindly In the last campaign. But they also say that Van "Wyck bas a greater strength than Gorman in the south. Van Wyck is a southerner and served in the eon- federate army. Another feature of the democratic controversy brought out by these visits is that Bailey, of Texas, has never been considered a Bryan man. Bryan, at is said, is coming east soon to boom Dear. mond for the democratic leader of the next house against Bankhead, Bailey's candidate, and upon the result of this fight many things 4n the next democrat ic convenl&on will rest. " Bryan is said to be losing ground in the west, and as the political doctrine, of' Bryan's enemies, in the east and south is- antl expansion and aritl trust,' -with not a word as to. silver, Van Wyck wttl go into, Cthe r.conTirention wth a mighty .following. 4 t."

The Graduated Income Tax on KaiJroads Killed, Tke Machinery Jet Gott Through The Soldltri Home Qeti $5,000 Special to the Gazette.' Raleigh. March 7. The house, strange to say, did not hold a long session this mocnlng. It passed bill to incorporate the State Council Junior Order United American Mechanics; to provide ' for marking the graves of confederate sol diers; to appropriate $52,000 for the. maintenance of the deaf, dumb and blind institution, and $15,000 for build-" ings; $40,000 for maintenance and $7,500 ror Duildings at the deaf mutes' school. at Morganton; $90,000 for the mainten ance of the hospital for the insane at Morganton and ,$4,000 for buildings; to allow sate treasurer to-lend ' the" state " normal school $2,500; to protect trout in v linvllle river in Burke and Mttcnell counties by jrevatkig the, dumping of , sawdust la the river. The resolution of Holland that R. H. Jones, member of the agricultural boa rdN who. assaulf'fpaMon. pWeil -member from Wake, In the rotunda yes terday, be arraigned. "before the 'house for contempt caused some discussion. It was argued by McLean, of Harnett, that this was not a contempt of the house, as it was not in the chamber. Speaker Connor believed it was since it was an attack on a member while on duty. Finally because of lack of time the resolutiora was tabled. The usual bill to pay the chief jjurrtal and read ing clerks $75 extra for services was in troduced by Mr. Julian. There was such a fire on it, however, that he withdrew it. Prof. W. M. Davies, of Ashevllle, also had up a little bill to give him $50 for voluntary services rendered in the house engrossing office before he be came an assistant enrolling clerk. This was promptly defeated. The house passed the bill appropriat ing $5,000 for a statue to Vance. Mr. Ray, of Macon, said that he had intro duced the bill to provide for the pur chase of Vance's picture (which by t!he way', he said, was fully paid up) and he admired Vance but thought that the next generation should erect the monu ment. Mr. Winston said the propitious time was now. Mr. Moore did not Ihlnk the amount sufficient. Mr. Craig said that there should be monuments fh the capitol square to ' Man gum and Badger and other great men.
