IN COSTIMCATION OF THE FIGHT IN THE ' Horsi OVER 1HK DIRECT TAX BILL OTHER NEWS. By Telegraph to the New and Observer, Washington, April 5- SENATE- The House bills to remove the politi cal disabilities of Wm. W. Mackall, of Virginia and to provide terms -of United States courts at Vicksburg, MisS.,were reported from the judiciary committee and passed. Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, addressed the Senate on the subject sf the Presi dent's annual message. He quoted the figures contained in the last an nual report ol the Secretary of the Treasury, showing the receipts and expenditures of the government for the last three years, the aggregate of receipts over expenditures being $178,000,000 or an average of $59, 000,000 a year. The result thus dis closed, he said, presents the limit within which Congrees should move in the matter of reducing the revenue. However much Senators might differ as to methods of reduction, all would doubtless agree that the revenue should be reduced. The method of doing this which appeared imos' favorably to him ( Wilson ) was the removal of the duty on sugar and molasses, which yielded about $58,000,000 annually and be suggested the propriety of a bounty to American sugar producers. At the close of Mr. Wilson's speech f,at 3 oVlpck)' consideration of the House bill for the purchase of U. S. bondswas resumed. In a few sen tences Mr. McPherson withdrew the amendment offered by him yesterday. Then the substitute as amended by Mr. Manderson was agreed to with out discussion or division and the bill was read the third time and passed. - A desire to have the yeas and nays on the passage of the bill was ihdica-ed by Mr. Stewart, but hearing; dissent on all sides he with drew the demand, and then, on mo- lion of Mr. Beck, the Senate insisted on its amendment to the bill and a committee of conference was ordered. lae Senate then proceeded to con sider the bill to provide for the es tablishment of a bureau of animal in dustry, to facilitate the exportation of live s'ock and their products. Alter a couple of hours spent in reviewing the bill and report and va rious communications (one of them from the Commissioner of Agricul ture criticising the bill adversely). and alter some discussion, the bill was laid aside without action. Messrs. Sherman, Allison and Beck ojointed conferees on the part ?',,ih0Seu:.' he bond purchase bill. Executive session. , Jf. . HOUSE. The fight over the direct tax bill was resumed thismorning. Wh3n, at 11.35, the House met in continuation of the legislative day of Wednesday, Mr. Reed, of Maine, immediately demanded the regular order, which the Speaker announced to be a vote on the motion that when the House adjourn today it be to meet Saturday next..: Fbis motion having been defeated, Mr. Lanham, of Texas, at 12:20, raised the point of order that the day assigned for the consideration of the direct tax bill had expired and he pro ceeded to argu in favor of the point. Mr. 'Reed inquired of the Speaker how it was that the gentleman ob tained the floor when there were Bev el motions pending to adjourn to a day certain. The Speaker replied that the point of order was intended to operate as an estoppel of those mo tions. Mr. Lanham suggested that Mr. Heed permit him to air his par liamentary knowledge in order to vary the monotony of the proceed ings. ; He then proceeded to argue with frequent citations from previous decisions that the Speaker had the power to say that under a common sense construction of the rules the order assigning Tuesday and Wed nesday " for consideration of the direct tax bill had expired. To adopt any other con struction would be to violate the mten- ion of the committee on rules in re porting the asBiemment and of the House in agreeing to it. A clear con struction of the assignment would show that it applied not to the legis- ative day but .to the calendar day. The Speaker disclaimed any power to adjourn the bouse and held that as long as the House refused to adjourn the legislative day of Wednesday wouldontinue. He recalled many precedents for his decision and espe cially the precedent presented in tne case of, the electoral commission bill, when ' the legislative day extended over tfifty calendar days. He over ruled the point of order. Mr.; Lanham suggested that the legislative .day of Wednesday might continue until December. I Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, extended the suggestion by remarking that it might continue until March. The Speaker: "It might last until the terms of the present members expire." Mr. Buchanan, of New Jersey: "And it will." Mr. Wilson, of Minnesota, attempt ed to find a flaw in the decision of the Speaker, but as the Speaker was forti fied with a long line of precedents, the attempt was unsuccessful. The: dreary round of roll calls on dilatory motions was then resumed. In an 'interval between the votes Mr. Hatch, by unanimous consent, intro duced the following resolution: Jieoloed, That the inter-State com merce committee be instructed to consider what can be done to prevent loss of life and limb in coupling and uncoupling cars used in inter-State commerce, and in handling the brakes of such cars; and in what way the system of heating passenger cars from tne ldcomotive or other single source can bejpromoted, to the end that such commission may make a recommenda tion in the premises to the various railroads within its jurisdiction and report its doings to Congress at an early date, with such suggestions as to legislation on such subjects as may RALEIGH. -Jf.

At an early hour this morning the large one-story storage warehouse on Hooper Wharf was discovered to be on fire and the firemen responded quickly. Its contents were coal oil and phosphate belonging to Griffith & Co. and were destroyed. The burning oil ran under an adjoining warehouse containing six hundred barrels of coal oil, which, with its contents, was also destroyed. The damage is now estimated at $40,000. The burning oil ran over the wharf to the water in the harbor, which for a time was a sheet of names. A num ber of small vessels were lying near, all of which escaped injury except a small sloop which was caught and her Sails and rigging destroyed. A change of wind which blew the flames back towards the wharf materially aided in saving the sailing craft. The Election In Rhode laland. By Telegraph te the News and Observer. Providence, R.

Abont Lawyers, Wiluams X Roads, April 4, 1888. To the JSditor of the News and Ob terver : Verily, the ways of the latter-day politicians are dark and mysterious and oftentimes past finding out. But their thread-bare methods, in one particular at least, have been about found out, and the people well understanding it, and so often hear ing the same old song, have become nauseated and utterly disgusted. I refer to the constant abuse of lawyers as a class and a profession. Any broken-down politician, when unable to discuss the issues between the parties, because of a lack of brains, can fall back upon the old thread. bare stand-by and whine about lawyers. Hat for the patriotism and loyalty to party of tne lawyers of North Carolina, they would long ago have revolted, and let the old party-hacks satisfy themselves of their inability to successfully cope with the astute and wily foe that the Republican party is. I venture the assertion that if the Democratic lawyers of North Caroli na should withdraw their active sup port from the canvass the State would be handed over to the enemy; horse,f oot and dragoons, with at least fifty thousand majority. In every canvass, on every stump, in his office, in the court yard and the streets, in the highways and Jby ways, in seasoD and out of season, the lawyers 01 North Carolina have always stood as a bulwark of civil liberty, and borne the burden of the fight, between the people's rights, and aggressive radi calism. Their voices have ever been ready to be raised, and their arms to be lifted, in defense, and for the reservation of our institutions, and the protection of the white race of the South. Yet in the face of all this, and despite all this, there are, we are told, organiza tions opposed to lawyers because, and only because they are lawyers. Patience sometimes ceases to be a virtue, and if this tirade and sense less persecution of.lawyers is longer kept up, it may end in bringing about such a state of affairs, that the most potent element in the political battle in which we are soon to become en gaged will be neutralized. But I only wish to reiterate what was said in the former portion of this article, that the Democratic lawyers, as a class, are loyal and true to their oartv. but if they are to be contin ually "hounded down" by political office seeking hacks, in their futile attempt to array class against class, then it may result in the lawyers of North Carolina agreeing to "hands off" and allowing the "smart alecks" to manage and fight for themselves a beet thev can.

TWENTT INJt. ; St. Pacl, Minn., April 5.. cjal to the Dispatch from New Ham, tourfowa, Bays: A terrible accident oc curred about four miles west of this town, on the Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad, by which at least a dozen persoas lost their lives and from fifteen to twenty were injured. The train which left Chicago at 1130 yes terday morning and was due here at 2 o'clock this morning, passed here Egarly .on time and when about four miles west pluDged into a creek. The creek was swollen by an immense amount of water which has been run ning off for the past few days; and in addition a gorge of ice was formed, which carried away a portion of the brjdge. There was nothing to Bhow that there was danger ahead and the train plunged into the swollen stream whij Tunning at full speed. The engine and three coaches were imme diately submerged. Such of the trainmen and passengers as were un injured rescued a number of pas sengers from the submerged cars, dragging them through the windows. Up to 11 o'clock this morning six bodies had been taken from the wreck, and three more are known to be underneath the debris, through which water is pouring. It is also stated that the engineer and fireman were instantly killed or were caught in the cab and drowned before aid could reach them, but the confusion and excitement are so great that it is difficult to secure information. In addition to the passengers known to be killed, from fifteen to twenty are, more or less seriously injured. A number are so dangerously hurt that it is feared they cannot recover. As soon as one of the trainmen who escaped in jury could be spared he was dis patched to the station and relief was telegraphed for from Mason City. Telegrams for relief Were also sent to Charles City and other near-by places, but it was not until several hours af ter the accident that a train arrived with physicians to care for the in jured and additional helping hands to jaid in rescuing those still confined in the wreck. It is understood here that a relief train has been sent from the west and a number of the injured removed p Charles City, 16 miles west of the scene of the accident- A Terrible Storm.

By Telegraph to the News and Observer. "Watebyille, Minn., April 5 A very severe storm commenced here yesterday afternoon at about 3 o'clock and continued all night. The storm was accompanied by heavy thunder and lightning and a terrible wind from the east. In the village but very little damage was done, some old roofs being blown off and things generally beiner shaken up. The only serious damage reported here consists of sev eral houses unroofed and at one place several miles north of here the upper story or a bouse belonging to a man named Sterling was blown completely off, seriously, if not fatally, injuring two children, one of which was an in valid. At M cores town the elevator is blown down and considerable other damage done. At Bean's Mills, two miles west of Fairbank, fifteen box cars which were on a si ie-track, with brakes set, were blown out on the main line. So far not enough rain has fallen to cause any washou's, bat if the storm continues it is highly probable there will be trouble. President Solly Resigns. By Telegraph ts the News and Observer.

Flowers were very scarce this Eas ter, owing to a rainy winter and spring, but nevertheless the church's windows and the chancel wWe" deco rated very handsomely with! hot house plants and evergreens. Behind the chancel railing was a large circle of evergreens, and in the circle was the cross; above, on the circle,the words "He is Risen." Mr. E. O. Rice delivered an appropriate Easter address. The Easter offering was unusually large; more than double last year's. Mrs. M. R. Geffroy's "D. D. Van Ant werp Memorial Class" led with a con tribution of over fifty-seven dollars.
