General Deficiency Bill Passed By the House Cannon Ex pects Adjournment Before July 4. RICHARDSON ATTACKS THE REPUBLICAN RECORD CANNON REPLIES, POINTING- OUT THAT PEACE AND PROS PEROTS' PREVAILS IN ALL QUARTERS OP OUR DOMAIN. . t Washington, June 18. When the sen ate convened today at 11 o'clock, Mr. Allison called up the house resolution providing that ithe conference commit tee out the sundry civil appropriation bill (be authorized to consider and rec ommend the inclusion of necessary ap propriations to carry out the several objects authorized in the omnibus pub lie buildings bill. It was agreed to. A bill to realtor to the active list of the navy Surgeon John Walton Rosa as medical director was passed. A res olution offered several days agoby Mr. Carmack directing the civil service committee to inquire into the discharge from the war department of Miss Re becca J . Taylor (for the publication of articles in newspapers' criticising the president) was called up and Mr. Car mack addressed the senate in support of the resolution. He intimated that she was discharged "because she took the wrong side of the Philippines ques tion from the administration point of view. At the conclusion of Mr. Carmack's remarks the isthmian canal question was laid before the senate. Mr. Jones (Ark.) believed it to be the duty of every senator to vote for the canal at the (best location. He favored the Pana ma route but would not vote for it if there were any doubt of the good faith of the offer. He desired Mr. Spooner who was about to address the senate, to explain away the charge that the purpose of adopting the Panama route was to have no canal at all. While the Wisconsin senator was pointing out some of the advantages of the Panama route ac indicated toy the comimission, Mr'. Morgan interject ed the remark that he was prepared to controvert them. "I have no doubt, " retorted Mr. Spooner, "that the senator ie prepared to controvert anything that may be said in favor of the Panama route." Refering to the action of the com mission in recommending the Panama route, Mr. Spooner declared that the commission dealt with the subject the second time in view of the lowering of the price in the Panama property from $109,000,000 to $40,000,000. Mr. Spooner paid a cordial tribute to the energv, ability and earnestness with which Mr. Morgan had advocated Ian isthmian canal, and added mat mi. Morgan's name would stand m mstory as the father of the canal. Mr Spooner said sectionalism should be eliminated from the canal question and every one could see that the shorter route was the better one. He took occasion to deny that the purpose of his substitute was to defeat the con struction of the canal. Mr. Spooner gave notice of numerous modifications of his bill. In the early hours a bill was favora bly reported allowing Schley full pay rm thp retired list. The name of the late president was drawn into the debate on the isthmian canal bill today. Hanna was the sena tor who used McKinley's name and said he did so reluctantly but, he declared it was only by reciting what McKmley had said to him on the subject he could effectually refute Morgan's oft repeated assertions that McKinley just previous to the Philadelphia convention, the latter said it wouia nut - vention to pledge itself to any route, Our automatic blue flame Oil Stove will make your kitchen comfortable during the coming hot days.

Mr. .Hanna; p the course of his remarks strongly ad vocated the Panama route and quoted extracts from publications of the isth mian canal comanission to prove it wa entirely feasible. Several other senators spoke for or against the Panama route. Washington, June 18. At the opening of the session of the house today, Mr. Under wood (Ala) at the request of Mr. oiepnens (Texas), entered a motion to reconsider the vote by which the bill to open 480,000 acres in the Kiowa. Comanche and Apache reservations In Oklahoma was defeated at the session last night. He said he would not roress the motion at this .time. The house then Went into committee of the whole arid entered upon the con sideration of the deficiency appropria tion bill. While Mr. Cannon who was in charge of the bill, was trying to ar range for the division of time, he an nounced if he could have his way con gress would adjourn sine die before July 4. The announcement was a greeted with .applause on both sides of the I 'TLas ftransed that general debate should extend for two and one. half hours,' Mr. Loud.

He declared that if the letter carriers should receive $1,200. the rail way mail clerks, whose salaries aver aged $1,200, should get $1,600. The general deficiency bill was passed late in the day's session. Under the guise of general debate Richardson (Tenn.) reviewed the record of the re publican party since the close of the second Cleveland administration. It was an elaborate effort at an -indict ment ior unnaed pledges, to which Cannon replied, declaring that the re puDiicans were doing the best they could. He asserted they had nothing to apologise for. Peace and prosperity prevailed in all quarters of our do main. Cuban Reciprocity. Washington, June 18. 'Forty-eight of the 54 republican senators and one out sider (Wellington) caucussed nearly three hours tonight in an effort to get together in support of some Cuban rec iprocity, but nothing was accomplished and the caucus adjourned until Friday. aygo&kIffers rewards for salisbury lynchers EVIDENCL THAT ONE OF THE VICTIMS OF THE MOB WAS IN NOCENT OF THE CRIME. Special to the Gazette. Raleigh, N. C, June 18. Governor Aycock today offered a reward of $400 for the conviction of each of the per sons concerned in the lynching of the Gillespie boys at Salisbury last week. As seventy-five or more men were in volved in the affair the total reward amounts to $30,000, the largest reward ever offered in the state for the con viction of criminals. It is said at the governor's office today that there are grave doubts of the guilt of Karnes, the younger boy, there being evidence to show that he was at home when Miss Benson was murdered. Last night the store of Lee and Broughton, clothing dealers, was en tered, the safe opened and $137 taken. The discovery was made this morning. No arrests have been made. A coal famine is felt here.

I II - --,- MORNING, JUNE'. 19 1902 DATE IS FIXED FOR CONVENTION ANTHRACITE COAL MINERS EX. PECT TO SECURE A GENERAL ISTRIKE ORDER. Call Issued for National Conven tion at Indianapolis on 'July Seventeenth. EACH 100 MINERS MAY HAVE ONE DELEGATE STRONG EFFORTS WILL BE MADE TO INVOLVE SOFT COAL MINERS IN THE STRIKE WHICH NOW PREVAILS FIELDS. IN THE ANTHRACITE Wllkesbarre, Pa., June 18. Mitchell stated this afternoon that the date for the meeting of the trainers' national convention at Indianapolis, a call for wnich was issued today, will be held July 17. Each one hundred miners will De entitled to one vote in the conven tion and one delegate can represent as many as five votes, but no more. The anthracite men expect to obtain enough voies to secure a general strike. Ac. cording to the best figures obtainable tne districts now on strike will have gam or over 2(0 votes to carry theii ooject. Wilkeslbarre, Pa., June 18. The long expected call for a special national con rention of the United Mime Workers' of America was issued today by National President Mitchell at strike headquar ters to be held at Indianapolis. The convention will be held for the purpose of discussing the advisability of involving all the soft coal miner in the United States in the struggle now going on in the anthracite coal fields. Under the constitution of the union five districts must require action be fore the national president can issue a call for a national convention. Presi dent Mitchell has had the consent of the necessary five districts for some time, hut for some reason did not see to issue the call until today. President' Mitchell was extremely un communicative as to what the probable action of the convention might toe. If the delegates should decide to inaugu rate a national suspension of coal min--ing everybody at strike headquarters believes it would have a disastrous ef fect on the industries of the country. The supply of coal would (become so short that large and small industrial establishments would be compelled to suspend operations and many railroads would also seriously suffer. There are approximately about 450,000 coal miners in the United States. Of these about 350,000, Mr. Mitchell says, are affiliated with the union and an ad ditional 50,000 comply with the constitu tion of the miners' organization. It is utterly impossible at this dis tance to forecast what the National gathering will do, because not one del egate has yet been, elected. The anthra cite delegates will go into the conven tion with 142.000 striking hard coal miners at their back for a general strike. The West Virginia delegates will have approximately 25.000 behind them for a strike and in Michigan, where the union has been having trouble, the delegates will also be in structed for a national suspension. Cen tral Pennsylvania will contribute a cer tain number of delegates who will 'want a general strike, as will also Kentucky. It remains for Western Pennsylvania, Ohio. Illinois and Indiana to offset this, a? it is unoffiially understood that the miners in those sections are not very enthusiastic for a general stoppage of coal production. There is a strong belief here that President Mitchell has some plan to eubmit to the delegates, and this be lief is strengthened by the fact- that he delaved the call so long. He had a conference with President Patrick Gil lay, of the Central Pennsylvania bitu minous district, on Sunday and has been in frequent comunication with other soft coal leaders in the west. The great barrier to be overcome in Investment Property Twelve room tene ment house in respect able neighborhood, paying 2o per cent on price asked, $1000. This price includes two vacant lots adjoin ing the house. This proposition is well worth investigating. IViUrie & LaBarbe, Rtad Estate : sad: Renting " Areata, the campaign for a national suspension is the yearly wage scale agreement that many of the sorfjt coal miners have with the companies. These agreements are ooked upon as contracts and a" large' percentage of miners in the west are rather averse to breaking them. The principal bone of contention in the an thracite region ds for a yearly wage . agreement. Those who are opposed to a general strike use tne argument that if the soft coal miners break these con tracts and go on a strike to help the anthracite men they would be losing in the west what the hard coal miners are fighting for in the east. T. It is not improbable that the con- servative men in tne convention will be able to prevent a general suspension ! and carry through the convention some sort of a compromise. i One plan that is talked of is to have! only the Central Pennsvania and the West Virginia men help the anthracite workers, ana anotner plan is to nave , all the soft coal miners work only a : certain number of days each week, j Failing to gain anything toy either of ' these two moves, then as a final card, ' , ..' ,, ... n stop the production altogether. All the coal that is now coming east is from j astern Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Maryland. Wllkesbarre, Pa., June 18. It is the general belief here that President Mitchell will, within the next few days, have something of importance to say on the strike question. Each of three district presidents has been in consul tation with the 'national ipresident with in the last twenty-four hours, also a number of other men who have been in the field. The national leader con tinues to maintain strict silence and he has- forbidden his advisors to talk too much. The big lace mill which was tied up yesterday because the management would not discharge several girls whose relatives are still at work in the mines did not resume operations today. Gen eral Manager Doran said that the firim has been much annoyed of late by the strikers insisting upon the discharge of certain employes on account of the coal strike and that the company was now going to make an issue of it and fight it out. The girls whose dismissal is de manded by the lace maker's union he said will not be discharged. COMMONS VOTES $50,000 TO GEN. KITCHENER KING EDWARD TO FOREGO ALL PUBLIC ENGAGEMENTS DUR ING NEXT FEW DAYS. London, June 18. The house of com mons by a vote of 227 to 48 adopted the vote for fifty thousand pounds to Kitchener for his services in South Af rica. Nationalist Leader Redmond led the opposition and reiterated the charge that Kitchener was responsible for the death of ten thousand children in con centration camps. When Redmond made this statement on a former occa sion it resulted in a violent outbreak but tonight it was listened to in si lence. A statement was issued from Wind sor Castle tonight saying that in antic ipation of the severe strain to which the king will be subjected during the coronation -festivities, his medical ad visors have recommended him to fore go public engagements during the next few days. SENTENCES POSTPONED IN CHERRY TREE CASES CONVICTED MEN GIVEN OPPOR TUNITY TO MAKE RESTITU TIONALSO THE INDICTED LAWYERS. Special to the Gazette. Charlotte, N. C, June IS. The sen tencing of Rev. T. Bright, Dr. Frank Bright and C. D. Wilkie, convicted of the Cherry Tree swindles, was today postponed till October under an agree ment that they make restitution of at least $10,000, the clerk of the Federal court to receive the money to be re funded. The firm of lawyers, Messrs. Justice and McBrayer, indicted in con nection with the frauds, are also to surrender thtir fee of S1S00. It is believed that after this is done light jail sentences will be imposed in Octo ber, whether Rev. T. Bright will be included is yet a Question. MURDERESS OF SIX CHILDREN IS CAPTURED ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AND ISIN A CRITICAL CONDITION. New Orleans, June 18. Mrs. West rope, who killed her six children in Claybourne county, Miss., shooting five and burning the baby to death by fir ing the house, fled to the wood6 and at tempted to conunit suicide by shooting herself twice in the side.
