Washington, D. C , June 5 In the Senate to-day Mr. Ingalls' resolution, offered yesterday, was laid before the Senate, calling on the secretary of the interior for information as to t!-e author ity for the issuance of a recent order of commissioner of the; General Land Office suspending the receipt of applications for public lands under pre-emption tim ber culture and desert land acts. The resolution having been read Mr. Wal thall said that very soon after the issue of the order complained of the secretary of the interior came' to doubt seriously iub legai auiuoruy ior me oraer, Wlin out reference to matters of precedent, and that he had determined to revoke it. Yesterday, Mr. Walthall continued, some hour or more- before the Senate met and two or three hours before the offering of Mr. Ingalls' resolution he (Walthall) saw and read the original draft of an order revoking it and had a conversation with the secretary of the interior on the subject. Mr. Walthall sent to .the desk and had the clerk read a copy of the order of revocation.. Mr. Ingalls said he was glad the first order had been revoked, but regretted the statement of the grounds on which the revocation had' been made, , The constitution of the 1 United States re quired the President of the United States to take care that the laws were faithfully executed 5 The President was responsible for the sets of his executive officers. Mr. Ingalls did not assume that President Cleveland, the 2d day of June, or any day since, had been in a condition either to approve or disapprove the acts of his subordinates, and while Mr. Ingalls exonerated the secret -rv of the interior from any active intervention in this matter, the radical'difficulty lay in the fact that the executive had placed vast national interests in the hands of subordinate officers who assumed not to see that the laws were faithfully execu ted, but that valid and existing laws of the United States were suspended over a vast area of the public domain and that many thousands of citizens were denied their rights under the laws. The advent of the present commissioner of the general land office to his position bad been signalized by an immediate sus pension of 126,000 entries of public lands. He had sent out spies to get evidence, to support the suspicions of the commis sioner of the general land office. That policy had been pursued up to this time. So great had been the hardship, injus tice and oppression of the commission er' j course that the secretary of the in terior had been called upon to revoke prior orders Of the commissioner. Mr. Ingalls was proceeding to read a letter addressed by the commissioner of the general land office to the secretary of th interior, dated May 6th, 1886, when Mr. Cockreil asked what document Mr. Ingalls was going to read from. Mr Ingalls repeated the date of the letter ana the statement that it was from the commissioner. Mr. Cockreil inquired whether . the Senator was going to read from an offi cial document of the House or . the Senate. ? . : Mr. Ingalls replied that if the Senator denied the authenticity or suspected tha4 he (Ingalls) would tamper with the text of the letter he (Cockreil) could send to the document room and get the re port. Mr. Ingalls stated the number of the document. Mr. Coekrell : M Why could not the Senator answer , a polito question at oncer'' Mr. Ingalls: "The Senator from Missouri is incapable of asking a pyH'' question of any body. That is the ft a son' . - : : Mr. Cockreil: MAnd the Sei;aijr from Kansas is incapable of answerjug a gentleman." j plr. ingalls: "I shall never haye an opportunity of answering a geutkuian whenever, the4 Senator from Missouri interrupts me." j jjThe chair urged the Senators to keep order. Mr. Edmunds fsotto voce"): ''That is unparliamentary. Mr. Ingalls (tlao sotto voce): " You .5 i, say it is. Mr. Ingalls said further that he was glad' the order had been revoked. Its? issuance was an offence that if committed by the secretary of the interior and sanctioned by the President would jus tify their impeachment and removal from office. f :; I Mr. Beck said the secretary of the in tef ior desired the adoption of the reso lution offered bv the Senator from Kan sis, so that the Senate could be informed of the causes that had led to the issue of the order. The " precedents for "the issue of an order would then be seen. i Mr. Teller assertedj positively that no pfedecedent for thq order could be found in the records of the department, lie defended Mr. Lamar, however, 'and said he could easily understand how he csnie to sign ' the order of July 2. fie said it was practically impossible for the head of a department to read all documents presented during tHe day for b;is signature. He was compelled to rely upon hie subordinates; on the com missioner of patents as to matters of patents, the commissioner of the land Office as to land matters, &o. Mr. Teller had no criticism for the secretary. He thought that officer had done well In so promptly revoking an objection able order. Messrs. Call, Waltham, Beck and George defended the commis sioner of the land office from Mr, Io g alls' further attacks. ( Mr. Ingalls resolution was agreed to The Senate considered private pen sion bills and passed about bills before it adjourned. house . .

(Thechange proposed wjll give to inventors a patent for seventeen years if the .application for the patent is 'filed in this country before a patent is granted in a foreign country. The present law provides that if an in--vention is first patented in a foreign: country the American patent subse quently issued for the same invention shall expire with the foreign patent.) ; An informal conversational discussion then arose as to the procedure of business today, Mr. Holman expressing a desire to call up appropriation bills, but being willing to test the tense of the House upon the question; Messrs. 'Xhrockmor ton and Crisp advocating claims of the committee On1 the Pacific railroads) to the floor and Mr. O'Neill, of Missouri, contending that the day should be as signed to the consideration of bills re lating to labor questions. The House having refused, 61 to 99, to go into committee of the whole on the legislative appropriation bill, the contest for precedence narrowed down to the committee on Pacific railroads and the committee on ltbor, the former coming out victorious. Mr. Crisp! thereupon called up the Pacific railroad extension bill and by a vote of 123 to 41 the House determined to-consider it. It was agreed that the previous ques tion should be considered as ordered at 4 o'clock, unless the debate should ex haust itself at an earlier hour. The debate consumed the entire session of the day. On motion of Mr. Holman an amendment was adopted increasing from 40 to f0 per cent the amount ot the net earnings it quired to be paid into the mokid iTjna in case ot toe company m reiuse to accept the provisions of this act. , The previous question was or dered on the engrossing and third read- ing oi tne dui, Dutt.tne opponents of the measure showing a disposition to fili buster until 5 o'clock and thus prevent Vote upon the bill, Mr. Crisp yielded to the inevitable and stated that he would endeavor tjo secure a vote Tues day nextTeHoUse at4 35 adjourned.

At a meeting of the executive board of the Empire protective association it was decided to Order a tie-up pf all the surface railroads in this eity, Brooklyn and Jersey City. The order was issued and all the lines except the Third avenue stopped run ning at an early hour this morning. k- i) or tne third tune in tbx first half Of the year 1886, all of the surface roads in the city have been tied up. This time the tie-up includes not only Brooklyn, but all the Jersey! City roads as i well. It was remarked yesterday by one of the executive board, of the Empire asso ciation that the proceedings of the board ' bad been made too -public. He prom-! ised the reporters that hereafter they Would not be able to publish them ahead of the action of the board. He said the next district meeting would be held in some place where it would not be found out by the reporters. At the last meeting of the district9 assembly it was decided when , a new board was appointed to give them two weeks to effect a peaceable Kettle-' ment. Failing in that, the last re source was a general tie-up. This has; been indicated before. The members of the car associations have felt the weekly assessment burdensome and have become' exasperated by the, delays and inaction 0f the previous executive boards. They' demanded a general tie-up as a remedy for the ending bf the Third avenue Strike and refused to listen to the con servative members ot the board. With; difficulty the members have been in duced to postpone the ti. -up until now. The action of the board is said to be approved by the imen. 'i ;,y say theyj have done this to force the Third avenue road through the intervention of other companies to come to terms and declare that the fight will be forced all along, the line. A feature of the tie-up is that no proclamation or explanation accom- LLEWXAM. VORREfttHMI Dt.Nt K FROM T II K COI N ?! TRY'S) CAPITAL.

The police received j informal tion of the tie-up half an hour after the order was issued.

As the wires have told you, the President is a mar ried man and everybody is glad of it. Grover is in clover, and comparative solitude, out at Deer Park, and no one begrudges him his happiness and the well-earned vacation, except "society." 'Society" has the pouts, poor thing. " Society M had determined to make the first marriage of a President in the White House (President Tyler was mar ried in New York) the grandest affair in history, and the Mesdames Busy body i of.

It is stated, how truthfully I know not, tliat President and Mrs. Cleveland will embark for Europe soon after the adjournment of Congress, and that they will spend several months on the conti nent. I The report meets with general credence hire and I should not bo sur prised to hear it confirmed at the White House soon. -During" ,Mr. -Cleveland's .absence that sterling Democrat and in corruptible statesman, Thomas F. Bay ard, would be acting President, and there is not a man in Anierioa who would fill more ably or acceptably the executive chair. Inasmuch as you will leave So worthy a successor behind you, Mr. President, the publio will grant you the necessary leave of absence. T&S CIVIL 8RVICK CONTROVERSY. . There will.be music (chin music) in the air that pervades the hall of the House of Representatives for some days to come. The consideration of the leg islative, judicial, &o. , appropriation bills will probably consume the greater portion of the coming week, and' when that section which, in effect, makes the appropriation for the support of the civil service commission dependent upon the abrogation mf the limitation clause as to age of applicants, and the submission of the entire list of those who have passed the examinations when a head of depart ment calls for a clerk, is reached there will be a hot fight. There is a diver sity of opinion as to what the result will be. f; CONGRMSIONAL CAPKR8. General Cox was the most prominent figure in the House yesterday. As chair man of the civil service reform commit tee he called up the Warder case. War der is an employee of the House and was charged with improperly using money to influence legislation. The report of Gen. Cox's committee recommended his dismissal. Mr. Ward, of Indiana, of fered a substitute censuring Warder but declaring that the evidence did not jus tify bis discharge. Nearly the whole day was consumed in debate on the sub ject. Gen. Cox handled himself and his subject well, but the House was against him and the substitute was adopted by the vote of 140 to 67. Messrs. Reid, Bennett and Henderson voted! for the substitute and Messrs. Cox, Cowles and Skinner against. The other North Carolina members were not present. Gen - Cox made an able speech of fifty minutes duration. THE TRUTH ABOUT Till TARIFF TANGLE. It is now very apparent that it is the intention of the Democrats to go before the country this fall with the tariff bill pending in the House. Mr. Morrison expects to call up the bill next week. There will be a fight then for precedence and over a consideration of the measure which will probably result in a victory for the tariff bill. Debate will then begin fin the committee of the whole House, but'before the discussion is con cluded it will be set aside for the naval aud other pending appropriation bills. The adjournment until December will be taken with the bill Still in the House, pending a vote. " MILLER'S MKABCRK MOST MlfCABRY. The substitute for the Blair bill pre pared bv the Texan member of the House committee on education may be reported during the coming week. The purpose of Mr . Miller's substitute is to defeat the whole scheme, but it will probably fail in it object. Through the timely intervention of Hon. J. W Reid the Blair bill is on the House cal endar and -he and the other friends of the bill hope and expect to vet see it pass that body and become a law. RKPRKSKNTATIVB RKID has had his time and eloquence drawn on pretty heavily of late by the colleges throughout the State. Last week it was Greensboro, female college and this week be delivered the address at the commencement exercises of Prof. Hob good's Oxford female seminary. ; Well, the yonng ladies seem to like it, and I verily .believe our junior Congressman likes if, too. If he delivers many more "addresses before young lady grad uates he may get to paying "addresses or anotner kind ere long, and no one would be surprised to see so good-look ing and ' popular a gentleman following Mr. Cleveland's lead to the altar. i CownKBiuiif am (inwua I has beeUnguMLhing himself of late He is an earnest advocate of the educa tional measure and is working "tooth and toe nail" to get through the class of internal revenue bills which ho has in charge. Mr. Henderson and Mr. Reid, in whose custody are the other revenue bills, are also bending every energy to bring about beneficial legislation on the subject. These gentlemen, all new members, deserve great credit for the zeal and energy displayed by them in the premises,, and their constituents doubtless appreciate their untiring ef forts in their behalf. The people of North Carolina may rest assured that whatever legislation, looking to a modification of the present internal rev enue laws and a reduction of that class of taxation, is within the range of pos sibility, will be effected by our delega tion before the end of the present Con gress. BILLS THAT ARB BURNED. It is a great truth to be remembered that of the thousands of bills introduced at every session of Congress fully nine tenths never become laws, and from five-eighths to seven-eights of themi never leave the committee rooms, or, if they dd, never get to a vote in the House. The man who thinks it is an easy matter to get an ordinary bill through Congress is sadly in need pf education on the ways and means of legislative engineer ing, and if he will take the trouble to enumerate the bills that have been in troduced and those which have been passed or are likely to pass during the present Congress, he will find that his mortuary report will show that the death rate is largely in excess pf that of any previous Congress. Many a bud ding statesman has introduced thel "lit tle bill" that was to make him famous, only to find at the end of the session thai it was still in a committee room -and likely to remain there, for he was not returned to resurrect it. TI1AT JOURNALISTIC JAUNT. H The suggestion of the secretary that the North Carolina Press convention ac cept the invitation of the Richmond and Danville system and visit the national capital during the "-latter part of this month, is one so forcibly sensible that it should catch every one of you by the back hair, lift you out of your velvet cushioned, gold-mounted, diainond-be-studdedeasy chairs and start you on yjur way at once.

Our Democratic President will introduce you to his brand new and beautiful Demo cratic wife, and she will give each of you a button-hole bouquet from the White House conservatories. fA "con servatory," gentlemen, is what we call a hot-house in Tarheel vernacular, but you mustn't use the word when you get here or you wilt shock "society' as Mrs. Potternd " 'Ostler Joe" did.

At an early hour the people began to arrive at the house to take a final view of the re? mains, which lay in a casket between the heavily draped windows in rear of the parlor. There were no flowers on the casket. All was black save the silver plate and the handles at the sides. The plate bore the words, "John Kelly, born April 20, 1821, died June 1, 1886."

L.OCAX OPTION. j The traffic in whisky and malt liquors is receiving more attention than at any time in the history of the country. Public senti ment declares it an evil. Claimed by some as a necessary evil, laws and opinion both hedge it around with barriers. Evil as it is, the manufacture and sale of liquors has many apologists for its existence. Dating their arguments from Noah's day they reach the present time with the old worn out statements of capital invested and labor employed which otherwise must remain idle. The fallacy f this argument is evi dent to the least thoughtful. In a country as large as ours, with only a fraction of its territory developed, capital and labor will hot want for employment in useful channels, for many generations. We need not speak of the evils which follow the use of alcohol, in any form. This community acknow ledge them, and in most communities the tendency is to control and narrow its influ ence. Reform has made a great stride in the past few years, and the sentiment of the community, aided by legislation, has reduced the temptations Of intemperance greatly Weak, worn and weary in body, and mind, the sufferer to whom Is given a medicine containing whisky, is in just the condition to receive the greatest present ill effects and to encourage an appetite that may prove his ruin. The prescription by medical men and the use by their patients, of remedies containing' tonic properties and Stimulating ingredients prepared without," Whisky, aid reform. The one Iron prepa ration accepted bv the people and endorsed t by physicians as filling their prescription, ts Brown's Iron Bitters, it is not aoeverage, Ss not sold in bar-rooms or by the glass. It contains no whisky, but is a pure temper ance medicine. It purines and enriches the blood, gives strength and tone to the over worked or worn-out system, calms the de bilitated nerves, rests the weary brain and gives health to the sufferer, without the after effects which result from the use of whisky or malt liquors used for their stim ulating properties. It is .worthy of note that the most delicate person can take Rrown's Iron Bitters without producing nausea or other evil effects; and it is the only Iron medicine that will not injure or dis color the teeth, cause headache or consti 'pation. One of the fallacies of our people is, that malaria can only be cured by the use of quinine and whisky. In chills andfevers, ' spring fevers, bilious fever, in fact in all malarial fevers, better and more perms- ; nent results are obtained by the use ot : Brown's Iron Bitters. It leaves no nnsatis factory effects to plague the patient, and creates and encourages no abnormal ap petite. J We claim that Brown's Iron Bitters is a factor in the' temperancp mofement. It aids by its beneficial action, and will assist by giving I tone and strength to the dis turbed and poisoned Stomach. When the ; blood, which is the source of life and healthf becomes weak, watery and im pure, it causes many diseases bearing many names. Chief among these are the 4 stomach, j liver and kidney troubles. However they are called: they belong to t the same family. The action of Brown's I Iron Bitters in removing the impurities . and enriching the blood will cure these diseases. It promotes digestion and cures j the dyspeptic, drives away the jbile, and I Starts lntq neauny cuuu ui mo cuuiucu of the liver through which the blood must flow to be purified. Rheumatism which tortures the body and neuralgia which 1 afflicts both body an4 mind I are directly traced to impoverished condition of the blood. Brown's Iron Bitters calms' the nerves and strengthens the body while its prompt action in changing, the condition j of the blood relieves torture and cures the J disease. It is left to your option whether Su will ' suffer or procure a bottle oft own's Iron Bitters (which costs but a dollar) and be cured. A word here to the purchasers: There are people base : enough to trifle with suffering. Some have . ; attempted to imitate this medicine. Don't . be deceived, i They urge you to buy a bot tle that appears like Brown's Iron Bitters. i The contents are not the same. The skill iof its combination and the quality of its Ingredients prevent itf imitation.
