This will completely crip ple freight traffic on all roads center ing there. The d scovery has been made that the wholesale robbery of milli nery and dry goods stores at La Harpe, Ills., is the work of four young girls, aged from ten to thirteen years, daughte s of respectable citizens of that place- The alleged Sir Robert Tich borne has sailed from New York for England to make another effort to secure the Tichborne estates. Al though tha day before he left New York he had but 13 in his pocket, should he be successful he will have an income of more than a a million dollars per annum. He said before his departure that he would remember his New York friends in case ne was successful in gaming bis aui. The high intelligence of the fox hound was emphatically illustrated recently in one of that canine species owned by a citizen of Chaplin, Mass. During the late cold snap and on one of the coldest days, the man started fox hunting, taking his dog with him. At the edge of the wood he put oat the hound, which soon disappeared from sight and hearing- The hunter waited three weary hour?, and then went to his wagon, where he found the intelligent dog snug and warm under the blankets. Indians who go about scalping people for amusement will, perhaps, be interested to hear that a New York judge has decided that the value of a scalp, when taken without the own er's permission, is $6,000. This will, it is thought, confine scalping parties in future to the very elite of the tribe, and debar the ordinary Indian from participating in an ancient and invigorating pastime.. There is one way, however, that good Indians can get around this restriction, and that is to get an M. D. from any of the recognized medical colleges. Then they canMo as they please it will be merely a surgical operation. The one relief to. the eye from the kaleidoscope of color this spring is the occasional appearance of gray. Gray is the frenchwoman's color, and strenuous efforts have been made to introduce it to general favor for two years. Last summer gray cloth combined with white moire had con siderable success,' and this summer some of the most elaborate and costly gowns will be made of two or three distinct shades of gray unrelieved by any other tint. For the rest there are reds and golds. ' There is a Re naissance green, which has golden tints different from the pistache and moss shades of last year.

The bill for the withdrawal of public lands; in Mississippi from sale at ordinary private entry and to re-district ; them for homestead settlers was reported from the committee on public lands and placed on tho cal endar. The Senate took up the bill to re imburse depositors of the Freedmen's Savings and Trust Company for losses incurred by the failure of that company. When the bill was last before the Senate Mr. Vest had ob jected to the provision to pay "legal representatives" of depositors and Mr. Evarts had suggested the amend ment of "personal representatives." : Mr. George said he would like to see the money paid to the persons entitled to it, that is, the depositors or their heirs, executors or adminis trators. He feared that under the terms of the bill claim agents would get powers of attorney with large contingent fees and thus tho object of theibill would be evaded. i Mr. 3jckrell moved to amend by striking out "legal representatives" and inserting the words "to the widow and children, if b any not, to father and mother, if and if hot then to brothers and ters arid none others."

Mr. Hiscock suggested the worda "the widow and next of kin respect ively."; Mr. Voorhees approved of Mr. Hiscock's suggestion, for he could not see why the lice should be drawn as in Mr. Cockrell's amendment, against' grand children. He thought there was needles alarm in the mat ter, and that the bill as it came from the finance committee was perfectly safe. i Mr. : Riddleberger reminded Senators that there were no marital relations among the colored people in slave times in the South and the-e-fore there were no legal widows and no legitimate children or grandchil dren. He claimed to represent that ele ment in the south and to be the only Senator who did rep-esent it, and he declare4 that the bill, with the amendments proposed would perpe trate a greater fraud on the freed men of the South than the bank itself did. He suggested that the amendment be printed and the bill go over till to morrow. Mr. Daniel thought that it might perhaps bebetter to let the bil go over for further consideration, buLhA did not consider the obiec altrtTAtW nracticai ones, because m Virginia and in the other Southern States thee facto marital relations of the colored people had been legiti matized.?

After the reading of the journal an effort was made by the friends of the special order, the direct taxjbill to make an arrangement by which a final vote upon the measure would be insured today at 5 o'clock, but Mr. Brecken ridge, of Arkansas, objected to the proposition. Mr. McKinley, of Ohio, moved to limit general debate to one hour. The opponents of the bill then re sorted to filibustering tactics. The entire day was consumed in voting upon dilatory motions submit ted by the opponents of the bill, Mr. Qates, of Alabama, and Mr. Breckenridge, of Arkansas, being the most aetive in this respect. Mo tions to adjourn and for a recesp, alternated with each other, and the voice of the clerk, calling the roll with alphabetical monotony, was unin'er rupted by any scene of interest or amusement until nearly 6 o'clock, when the vote recurred upon the" mo tion submitted by Mr. E.B. Taylor for a iec88 until tomorrow at 10 o'clock. The filibustering element was at this time at the end of its list of usual dilatory motions, but Mr. Brecken ridge, of Arkansas, was equal to the emergency and made a motion that the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. McMillio) be excused from voting On Mr. Taylor's motion. Mr. Reed, of Maine, and Mr. Bur rows, of Michigan, made a point of order that the motion to excuse was not in order. On the motion to take a recess, the former gentleman suggesting that if it were in order motions could be submitted to excuse every member, the Speaker said that while that might be very inconvenient he thought he motion to excuse was in order. Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, remarked suggestively that it might be a very convenient motion for the minority to avail itself of. Mr. E. B. Taylor said that the direct tax bill' was not the only bill before the House, and the gentlemen who were pressing this matter might take notice that it waa not the only bill. Mr. Grosvenor remarked that there were 145 members of the minority. At six hours a day they could U6e up fifty days upon every vote, and he gave notice now, that if God spared his life, and this motion were admitted, if he could get the minority to stand with hia., he would do it on a question which would affect some body very materially. Mr. Reed raised a further point that it was not competent for one member to move that another mem- Th Sneaker saWfirUSe motions to adjourn it had been de cided that they could no d reeon sidered.for the ret son that if this could be done, the motion to aajournmigui, be respected indefinitely. The motion to take a recess could be respected indefinitely, but a different time must K fivftd in each case bo .that the mo tion to take a recess was not like the motion to adjourn. Itlhad been de cided that upon a motion to adjourn it was pot in order to move that a marnKflr Via ATr.nsed from voting, be- in that case the House might V kmt in continuous Bession- But that decision did apply to the mo tion for a recess and the chair, there fore oyer-ruled the point of order. Mr. Sowden, of Pennsylvania, ap pealed from the decision and the yeas , , i and nays were oraereu on we opyw ) Other motions to excuse memuero from voting were made and with drawn. , In speaking of the appeal Mr. Grosvennor queried if it were possible that the House had existed one hun dred years and had just discovered that One-fifth of its members could have 650 roll calls upon every ques tion except the question to adjourn. He cQuld make a motion to execuse aSK members from votins ana cwum move to reconsider eacn vote, so ni if one-fifth of the members, stood by him he could have 650 roll-calls. Thn House was asked to put tne technical construction on a role tnat would paraljze the legislation ot ine country and put into the hands of the minority the power to usurp an legis lative functions. The House was making a History It was putting the weapon into Speaker decided that as legisla tive business had intervened since the last motion to take a recess, the motion to adjourn was in order. ; Immediately Mr. Breckenridge, of Arkansas, moved to adjourn until Monday, and Mr. MoMillin moved to adjourn until Friday so that the prospects of a recess which seemed near at hand, disappeared, and the parliamentary situation was about the same as it bad been three hours pre viously, and the clerk began to call the roll on the motion to adjourn un til Friday. On this motion no quorum voted and a call of the House was or dered: At 10 30 o'clock the sit uation in the House remained un changed, except that there has been gradual falling off in the number of members responding to their names up on the roll call. The call of.tha House showed that there were 216 mem bars present, but this number dwin aled away and the vote by which the proceeding under the call were dis pensed with figured up but 149, still less than quorum. Filebuster ing motions were again interjected arid the voice of the clerk rendered somewhat husky from tibe task im posed upon ,him of calling 15 roll calls during the day again filled the hall. Missouri Election. By Telegraph to the News and Observer. St. Locis, April 4. The municipal elections throughout Missouri jester day were unusually spirited contests, much interest being centered in the question of local option. In many cases old governments were com pletely overturned by the fusion of parties and the nomination of citizens' tickets. Sedalia, for the first tims in several years, elected a Re publican mayor, Col. J. D. Crawford. St. Joseph elected the whole Repub lican ticket, headed by Engelhart for mayor. St. Charles elected Ward Hutt, the Republican candidate for mayor. At Jefferson City no pa ty lines were drawn. Independence was thoroughly Democratic. Party lines were split and the saloon element came out victorious. At Marshall the Democrats were victorious over the law and order ticket backed by local option. At Clinton local option was endorsed. At Boonville C. Bell, Republican, was elected major. There were no party lines at Poplar Bluff. At Mexico C. G. Bassford, Democrat, was elected mayor. The Democrats won unex pected victories at Carthage, electing a Democratic major. At LaPlatte the former government was complete ly upset and 'Charles N- Mitchell, of the people's ticket, was elected mayor. At Warrensburg and Marysville the Democra's were victorious. The honors were equally divided in the numerous smaller towns throughout the State, the interest being entirely local. THEY WILL RETURN. OUR BOODLERS ACCEPT MR.

Toronto, Ont, April 4. A settle ment pf the White-Cross case may be reached today as all the parties are inclined towards a compromise. Mr. Busbee this morning made a proposition to Mr. Bigelow that will probably lead eventually to an agree ment that will bring the difficulty to a speedy" conclusion. Mr. Busbee proposed that if White and Cross will return to Raleigh he will un dertake not to prosecute them under the banking laws of the United States; further agreeing that he will only proceed against them on three oharges of forgery, which he will nominate here before they start, This is agreeable to Mr. Bigelow, who will this afternoon advise his clients to accept the terms held out to them for their return by Mr. Busbee. It is not expected that Mr. Hardy of the Norfolk Bank will offer any opposi tion to Mr. Busbee's scheme. Tobonto, Ont., April 4. This even ing White and Cross informed Mr. Bigelow, their counsel, that they had determined to accept Mr. Busbee's compromise proposition and would return to Raleigh without delay. The conditions have been reduced to writing so that Mr. Busbee cannot back down from his offer. Mr. Bigelow tonight favored your correspondent with a copy of the document, which he drew up himself. It begins by asserting that the pris oners will be exonerated from all of fenses against the banking law of the United States and and the criminal laws of North Carolina. They are to be tried only on three charges of forgery enumerated as follows: FirBt, forging the names of Dr. H. Graves and W. H. SaundeiB to prom issory notes for $6,250, and felonious ly uttering the same. Second, forg ing the names of W. H. Avera and D. T. Barber to promissory notes for $7,000 and uttering the same. Third, forging the names of H. A. Morgan, Jas. Parker and C. O. Riddick to promissory notes for $5,800 and ut tering the same. Against these charges White and Cross claim they have a perfect defense, and are quite content to be tried on them, feeling confident of an acquittal. To Mr. Bigelow the prisoners owe their good luck. He has been unremitting in looking after their interests. The charge preferred against them yes terday will, it is understood, not be pressed, the parties having expressed their willingness to have the boodle fcnnsfflrred to the custody of the the Twor rtorin -iar01in" wnere tne t;.nlrlv (osswyiafieil&mpft1 onment to heart. They are being well cared for, however, the police magistrate having made a generous allowance for their maintenance while in custody here. ANOTHEB BKPOBT. Tobonto, April 4. The case of White and Cross may be speeauy settled. Mr. Busbee today made a proposition that if they returned to Raleigh voluntarily he would only prefer the three charges of forgery against them and undertake not to prosecute them under the banking laws of the State for other offenses they may have been guilty of. The proposition meets with the approval of Mr. Bigelow, who will, it is under stood, advise his clients to accept the forma offered. Col.

NOTES ASP GOSSIP ABOUT THE BANK AITAIR. A great many persons are now dis cussing t he question as to the weight of Cross' testimony in declaring White innocent of the forgeries. A promi nent gentleman was heard to express the opinion yesterday that the testimony of Cross on the subject would not be sufficient to exonerate White. Another fact, which is now beiag remarked upon by all and which is evident o the minds to all, ia that the boodlers made a very light haul when they fled. They carried very little money with them and apparently very little if any of what they did carry was taken thA hank. Evervthinsr shows that the money was either stolen or lost long before the president and cashier absconded. THE MONET CANNOT BE ATTACHED. With reference to the question as to whether the boodle of our boodlers can be attached, the following was received here yesterday by Messrs.

The commissioners of Vance, Franklin and Nash counties on Monday ordered an election -to be held in the townships in their respec tive counties submitting to the ; peo ple of the various townships th pro position of voting certain amounts to the capital stock of the road. From conversations which your correspond ent has bad with some of the promi nent citizens of the Fianklin county townships it seems that they realize the benefit and advantage which they will derive from the building of the road and that they will unhesitating ly vote the subscriptions asked: for; and we are informed that there ; is a similar sentiment in the other town ships through which the roads : will run and which have been asked for subscriptions. ;, Work is rapidly going on on the electric light system; the poles are all up and the lights will be running certainly by the first of May. i That steady, solid, continuous boom, with such a firm foundation, which has raised Henderson front the small railroad station of a few years ago to the thriving, growing town of four thousand people, the Hender son of today, is still making itself felt and the "good work" is still go ing on as will appear from what fol lows. It seems from present indications that the amount of building this spring even exceeds the large amount done last ' year. Mr. R. I E. Young has contracted for a block of eight stores on the east side of Gar net Street (the burnt district). He will leave space for a sidewalk on the Oxford and Henderson Railroad, thereby giving these buildings two fronts. Mrs. W. S- Parker will also erect another- handsome store on Garnet street 'and Messrs. S. &C. Watkina intend building a block of store houses on the old Watklns warehouse lot.; All these buildings are in the fire limit, and consequently will be of brick; and in addition to the above, there are several dwelling houses in course of construction, f MeBsra. W. W. Briscoe, and J. R. Hicks will very shortly commence the manufac'ure of smoking tobacco here. ; They have made ail arrange ments and will soon be able to place their goods upon the market. They will manufacture the "Golden - Hub and that well known brand, "Clear the Track" (formerly manufactured here by Perry Brothers) which they have purchased from Messrs. Black -nail Brothers, of KittrelL ; ..There is a rumor circulating that lowing officers were elected: V-lf7 S. Burgwyn, captain; ureorge x 1st lieutenant; C A. Servis, 2nd lieu tenant and J. T. Moss junior 2nd lieutenant. The company will take immediate steps to procure uniforrhs. There was more tobacco sold on the warehouse floors here yesterday than ever before in ny one day ;in the history of Henderson as a iodc- co market. The wagons coma wtu difficulty bewared for. 5 Our people differ somewhat as :to the best and most efficient man for Democratic nominee for Governor, bnt your correspondent is of fhe opinion tnat a majority iavor v ugo Fowle.

By Telegraph to the News and Observer.- f Chicago, April 4 The final result of the meeting of the c mployes of the various reads in this city, which began yesterday afternoon and lasted until a late-; hour last night, is an nounced this morning in the declara tion that the boycott of "Q" cars has been permanently raised, and i that henceforth the contest will be I con fined strictly to the "Q" system. fThis raising of the boycott means that all the strikes now on each 'Q" connec tion are to stop for the present and all those which were imminent are to be averted. The business of Chicago is to be restored and maintained by the strikers with! strict decorum. :The Other loads are absolved from; the requirement Of neutrality and j vio lence is to be discountenanced ac cording to the: well known policy of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers. The airangement agreed upon, it ia stated, is directly due to the ex ertions of Chief Arthur of the Broth erhood of Engineers, Grand Master Sargent of the firemen, Grand Master Monaghan of (he Switchmen's Asso ciation, Mayor Roche and Mark Ray mond, who also represents the switch men. The final decision waa has tened by a mass meeting held with closed doors last evening and ' which was addressed; by General Manager Jeffrey of the Illinois Central road. Fifteen hundred railway employees were present at the meeting, repre senting elements which had previous ly been at times antgonistio. When the appointed time came this morning for a cessation! of the strike on the St. Paul road, all hands, firemen,engineers and switchmen pre sented themselves for duty and the usual course of things as far as the Milwaukee and St. Paul Company is concerned was resumed at once. At the Fort Wayne yards there was a hitch and the strike on that road con tinued. The engineers and firemen were ready to carry oat the under standing, but the switchmen were ob durate. At 9 a. ' m, however, every thing was satisfactorily arranged and the great Burlington boycott waa ap parently everywhere at an end, i V lVJEIOaVF" PURE f pi " 0: ' Its superior excllence"proven ions of homes foe more than a iroven in mil lions of homes for more man ll!f.c , rf century.
