i -rrThe Southern Lutheran convention
which has been in session at l'oanoke,
.Vai, for a week past, has adjourned to
meet at Savannah, Ga, next year.
- The jweet girl graduates are now
at liberty to act upon the revised maxim,
that the proper study of. womankind is
man.
j Three White Mountain hotels are
advertising': that President and Mrs.
Cleveland will arrive early in August.
Miss Rose Cleveland is "expected" in
the Adirondacks, at Lake George, At
lantic City and the Latskuls.
Hon. Wni. L. Scott, of Erie, Pa.,
it is stated, has written a letter, to one
of his constituents, in which he says
that the office of secretary of the treas
ury has been offered to him by Presi
.deni Cleveland,, and that he shall as
sume its duties immediately ufter secre
tary Manning retires in October.
' Strange varieties of boycott develop
every day. The latest form is reported
from Fayette county. 111., where the
farmers have agreed to sow no wheat for
three seasons to come in order to starve
out the chinch-bugs. The chinch-bugs
are 'thoroughly organized, and the
struggle will be one of great interest.
-The following dispatch was received
by Senator Butler on the 26th ulto.:
j New York, June 26.
jl thank 'you heartily, as I do all who
have aided in my vindication. My
thanks are especially dut to Southern
Senators and members of the House,
whose sense of justice impelled them to
aid one who once' did all he could to in

f Neither President Cleveland's wife
nr any of the heirs of the late CoL J.

his will. ;The property amounts to
$lS0j000, of which 25,000 is p. rsonal.
The real estate lies in Omaha, Tacoma
and Lincoln, Neb., and Attica and Fbl
Boihdale, N. Y. The homestead of 200
aces is to be reserved: intact, with its
appurtenances, until the grandchildren,
who are minors, reach their majority.
Tlje -Western property; is to remain
inact for six years. The will divides
th property among his eight grand
children, share and share alike. Thus
it will be seen that unless the Western
property increases, as it is expected to
do the President's wife will receive
only .$20,000, instead of $50,000, as
reported. ;n ; .

If. the universitv of North Carolina
was a denominational college, or a theo-
ncal seminary, devoted to the train
ing of preachers of a special "faith and
order" then all this talk about the num
ber of profeasorp who belong to this or
that, church xwould be proper. But as
this is not the case it is a little tiresome
to have to read about so much irrela-
vanti matter. ' I think a man's religious
faith is his; own private matter' and does
npt concern any one but himself. If the
professors of such a college all belonged
to one church, or none at ail, it is all
right, provided they are properly quali-
hed for the duties, it is not their duty
to teach any special brand of faith, but
to cenhne themselves to the text books.
Ij am aware that there is a wide-spread
I ,fj!. s
denominational prejudice among, our
Deoplebut ib ought not to be. I remem

but those of his faith. When a native

WigHiNQTON, June 30 Sxnatx.
The Senate proceeded to the considera
tion of Mr. Piatt's resolution for pub
He executive sessions and a speech of
Mr; Morrill (who is sick and absent)
against the proposed change, was read
by Mr. Manderson. Mr. Morrill
thought his friend from Connecticut
(Mr. Piatt) was, in this matter, 1 'im
mensely wrong."
At the conclusion of the reading of
Mr; Morrill's speech, Mr. Hoar spoke
at great length in opposition to Mr.
Piatt's resolution. ; "When he had con
cluded, two pension vetoes were laid be
fore the Senate and referred to tho pen
sion commissioner.
The conference report on the consular
and diplomatic appropriation bill was
submitted by Mr. Allison and agreed to.
Ihe chair laid before the Senate the'
joint resolution extending the appropri
ation for ten days. Mr. hdmunds ob
jected to the second reading ot the joint
resolution for reasons which he said he
would state tomorrow.
The Senate proceeded to the consid
eration of the legislative appropriation
bill. In the course of discussion on the
amendments increasing the clerical force
of some of the departments, Mr. Beck
declared that he felt humiliated by the
fact; that many of the appropriations
were diminished so that the members of
the House might bo able to go to their
country and say how economically they
were and how extravagant the Senate
was: lie also criticised the House for
its delay in passing: appropriation bills.
The sundry civil appropriation i bill
m -ass.
was' not yet sent to thn Senate.
The' legislative bill was in its prosmt
condition on the last day of the fiscal
year.
The naval bill had not been consid
ered, the deficiency had not been look
ed at. He was not proud of the record.
Mr. Plumb said the House took all the
time it needed and then it launched ap
propriation bills on the Senate without
giving the Senate time to consider them.
Ihe? legislative bill should have had
much more consideration than the Sen
ate appropriation oommittee had been
able to give it. It had to take many
things blindly. He thought it would
be a good idea for the Senate and the
House to remain in session till Septem
ber, October or November, until efery
item in the appropriation bills had been
full ', scrutinised. The conference re
port on District of Columbia appropria-
uon diii was Buomiuea ana explained
by Mr. Plumb and was agreed to.
Aftei disposing of 4b pages of legis
ative bill the Senate had a brief execu
tive session, and at op. m , took recess
till 8 p. m.
UOCBX. I
Mr. Boyle, of Pennsylvania, from
the Pan-electric committee, submitted
a report signed by four members of the
committee upon the subject of its investi-
gauon. it is accompanied Dy tae fol
lowing resolution: ; j
KeBolved, That a full, fair and ex
haustive investigation has failed to ad
duce: any evidence which tends to show
that attorney general Garland, solicitor
general ttoode, secretary Lamar, Indian
commissioner Atkins, railroad commis
sioner Johnston or Senator Harris, they
being the officers named m the Pan
electric publication: of the newspaper
press wnicn gave rise to wis investiga
tion, did any act, omcial or otherwise,
connected with the matter inveFtigatcd
which was dishonest, dishonorable or
censurable. The report an J resolution
(which is concurred in by Mr. Hale,)
were referred to the; House calendar.
Mr. Ramsey, of Massachusetts; also
submitted a report tigued by four Re
publican members of the committee'.
Mr. Hale, of Missouri, presented his
individual views. ; I
These reports were placed upon the
calendar. i
Mr, Reed, of Maine, reserved all
points .of order against the resolution
accompanying Mr. Boyle's report,, and
Mr. Ramsey stated that the resolution
had never been submitted to the com
mittee or acted upon by it. He also re
served all points.
Mr. Boyle said that the resolution
had been presented ; with the consent of
the gentleman from Massachusetts, who
had expressly waived any meeting of
the committee.
Mr. Ramsey replied that that was true
as far as the report was concerned,, but
he had never seen or heard of the reso
lution before.
Mr, Boyle therefore asked to with
draw the report and resolution but Mr.
Hale objected.
The committee rose for the purpose of
enabling Mr. Randall to present and
the li use to pass a joint resolution to
provide for ten days from today

TIM SITUATION III CniCAOO NO SIRI018
TROCBLB BUT TI1K SITL'AITIO:.' TIIRBATBN
JNQ. Chicago, June 30. The two ca
loards of Pinkerton men arrived at Roor
street shortly after 2 o'clock this mornt
ing, and business was immediately be
gun by tho Lake SHore company. The
entire Pinkerton force, with the excep
tion of half a dozen men,, arc now armed
with rifles, and a guard was sent out
with every train and accompanied it to
Colehour. The trouble at the stock
yards last night, while not serious in
itself, is looked upon by the officials as
indicitive of a new source of danger.
Employes of the packing houses to the
number of 10,000, are in thorough sym-
Jiathy with the striken, and' as they now
eave work at 4:30 p. mj. their presence
in the neighborhood of thu wrecked trains
it is thought to be somewhat ineai.aciug.
The switchmen employe!! "by" the other
roads in the Ptoek yards are not trusted
implicitly by the Lake Shore officers,
who are of the opinion that any one of
them would embrace an opportunity of
turning the switch under the moving
train, From Chicago to Miller's Station,
Indiana, for thirty miles fences, switch
houses and telegraph poles are de
corated' with posters offering $5,000
rewarlfor the arrest and conviction of
any one violating that section of the
statutes, which prohibits the interfere
ence with the property of the railroad
company by any outsider. The strikers
laugh at the notices and thick it
absurd to suppore that; any of their
number would , turn informer for
any reward. While there seems no
likelihood of any trouble today except,
perhaps, at the ' stock yards, there is
considerable anxiety manifested on both
sides as to the probable action to be
taken by the Lake Shore switchmen at
other points. The yardmaster of the.
Toledo yards has, been in Chicago since
the commencement f the strike, and
yesterday received dispatches from some
of his trusted men at home, say in his
presence was required there without de- I
lay as a strike seemed imminent. He
left for Toledo last night.
A Heavy Ovr-Iasa of Bonds.
Philadelphia, Pa., Juno 30l A
hasty summoning of the members of
the board of directors of the Chesapeake
and Delaware canal company at an
early hour this forenoon, created a stir
in financial . circles, and the report
quickly flew about that a heavy defalca
tion had been discovered in the accounts
of one of the offisers. The company
is one of the oldest and was
a . ' m .
in earlier times one ot the wealth
iest corporation in the Middle
States, holding charters noder the. leg
islatures of Pennaylvai ii, .Delaware
and Maryland. The first r:mor that
reached the street was that treasurer
James A. L. Wilson had defaulted in
his account to the extent of $178,000.
The fact as subsequently ascertained
more accurately were that an over-issue
of bonds to the amount of 8615.260
was made under a thirty-year mortgage
oan of the company of July, 1856. for
$280,000. The loan matures tomorrow
and preparations having been made for
its extension, the return of tho bond
for certification at the office today would
have revealed the over-issue. Treas
urer Wilson did not appear at the office
today, but on his desk was a note con
taining a confession of guilty knowledge
of the fraudulent transaction. He left
the city last night, it its alleged, in the
company Of Henry V. Lesley, a former
treasurer, under whose administration
the over-issue was made. Wilson is
about fifty-five years of age and for
over thirty years haa been oonnected
ith the Chesapeake & Delaware canal
company, having been its treasurer since
1083, when he succeeded Lesley.

CHiCAGO,IlljsJune,30. A Gatesville,
Texas, special says : James Cooper and
James Van Winkle fought an informal
duel with revolvers yesterday on Brown
Creek, in Caryell county. Both were
fatally wounded. Cooper was shot in
the head and died in a few minntes, and
Van Winkle was shot through the bow
els, and: has since died.
Cooper and Van Winkle were mortal
enemies, having quarreled about a year
ago over some cattle. Yesterday they
met on Brown Creek, and after some
hot words, they agreed to fight to tho
death. : They measured off the ground
and each with his watch in his hand
waited for the moment agreed upon ior
opening fire. At the appointed timo
two shots rang out almost simultaneous
ly, Van Winkle had received his fatal
wound, but Cooper was not scratched.
Another round was fired and Cooper fell
with a bullet in his brain. This is the
story told by Van Winkle before his
death. The firing attracted some herders,
abot t one mile distant, and they cared
for the wounded man-until he died.

My Dear cir: in response to your
request for my advice I have to say
that, after a careful examination of the
matter. I think the words "Spirituous
Liquors" contained in section 3116 of
Tho Code do include wines and beer and
all otheriiquors used as beverages con
taining alcohol in sufficient quantity to
produce intoxication.
There is much diversity of opinion
anion g the courts of our sister States
upon iQis question, put 1 tnin& you
should be gui led in performance of
your duty by the principle which con
trolled the supreme court of this State
in deciding the case of State vs Lowry
74 N. C , 116. So long as that opinion
stands unreversed, it seems to me that
the course of those who are charged
with the execution of the law in this
respect is clear.
I am Sir Yours Very Truly,

"The Law in North Carolina of Notes
and Drafts" is the title of a new and
valuable publication by Messrs. M. N.
Amis and J. A. Williamson, membeis
of the Raleigh bar. This is Mr. Amis' s
second contribution to the legal litera
ture of the State, and the success which
attended his "Criminal Code and Di
gest," so highly endorsed as it was by
the supremo court, is a sufficient guar
antee that his late effort will merit suc
cess and reap reward. Col. Williamson
is a member of the well known law firm
of Coke & Williamson, and is a lawyer
of acknowledged ability. ' 'The Law of
Notes and Drafts'.' embodies the law on
these subjects as it Btands today, and is
intended for lawyers and business men,
especially the latter, who will doubtless
find it valuable. The book is published
by Messrs. Edwards, Broughton & Co.,
of this city, who have it on sale. It
can also be procured at the bookstores.
