The General Assembly jogged
along on its course yesterday,
and before the sessions ended the
House concluded it had enough to
take a rest till Monday, while the
Senate will work to-day. Later, on
second thought, the House concluded
. to s ork also. ,
In the Senate a memorial was pre
sented by Mr. Foushee, of Durham,
this being from the Methodist Con-
. ference of North Carolina m favor of
a stringent divorce law for North
Carolina. It pointed out the evils
of hastily entered into marriages and
of loose and lax divorce laws which
were asked as the result. It held
that once married the burdens should
be borne, except for Biblical reasons,
and that these should be the cause
for divorce.
Mr. Scales, of Guilford, introduced
a bill to allow the Governor $1,000 a
year for traveling and other ex
penses, this to be paid monthly. The
bill went to the Committee on Sal
aries and Fees, and yesterday after
noon w as reported favorably.
The Webb bill to regulate the
granting of licenses to stills in Ashe
ville and Buncombe was passed or
amended, this allowing no license to
stills of less than thirty-six bushels a
day capacity, a penal bond of $5,000
to be made for violation of law, no
sales less than five gallons, under
penalty of fine and imprisonment.
Among bills of interest introduced
were these: To provide a Park and
Tree Commission for Charlotte; to
permit Wilmington to receive lands
out of the city for park purposes; to
increase pay of jurors in Pitt to $2 a
day, this bill passing both House
and Senate. Other bills are referred
to in the proceedings of the day.
Criini Confirmed.
Washington, Jan. 6. The nomina
tion of W. D. Crum, a negro to be
collector for the port of Charleston,
S. C, was confirmed by the Senate
in executive session to-day by a vote
of 38 to 17. Crum has been nomi
nated by the President three times
and -in addition to these nominations
has received three recess appoint
ments and is now serving under the
last of these. Confirmation was op-

Senator Tillman made a speech
Jmtr- -aevotea almost entirely 10 xne ques
tion ot the constitutional right of the
President to make a recess appoint
ment when no actual recess had oc
curred, the Senate having adjourned
one session and begun another at
noon of the same day. He introduced
at the last session of Congress a reso
lution on the subject of constructive
recesses, which was referred to the
Committee on the Judiciary. Senator
Piatt, ol Connecticut, chairman of
the committee, said the resolution
had been referred to a sub-committee
and that he expected a report would
be made later.
i ' The race issue played a very in
significant part in the debate, which
was participated in by fully a dozen
Senators.
When Crum receives his commis
sion he will be entitled to receive
the salary which has accumulated
since his first appointment.
