In the course of his Ipeeohdast night
at the great Demoflratio ratification
meeting held here Mr. W&tterson said
of the Republican platform :
, 'The issue forcea iipon he country
by the Republicans fe not one of praf
tection against free trade. Let no
protectionist so delude himself. If
there) be any, howeter, who Beeks to
Srecfpitate free trade literally to burn
own the factories and blow up, the
eustdms houses, he should support
this Republican platform and bid
God speed to its prompt application
and rigid enforcement, because, if its
terms could be carried oat in good
faith,' it would culminate in such a
glut of an already over-supplied home
market - and such consequent loss of
employment to the American opera

In aj recent case before Justice Fer-
gusonr in Philadelphia, ;he court
made ia statement of ;the Talae of
stock in the Elgin Watch Company.
JtJy this It appears tnat.- tne company
had May 1, 1880, capittl stock to the
amount of $834,000, and surplus of
S331.151 96, a total of $1,215,451 96.
Up to the elose of 1887 t had increas
ed its! capital purely by stock divi
dends from profits act itolly accruing
to,$3,000,0U0 and lU surplus to 8i$6,
19G.70, or a total of $3,830,196 70.
In addition to this increjase in capital
and surplus Irom ptoiits, being
$2,620744, or over 215 per cent, in
seven fears, there had been a xo-.per
cent, cash dividend each year, ex
cept one, when zU per cent, was divid
ed. '3 )hese diTidends most, have
amounted to at least another million,
making the total profit Jon the invest
ment as : it stood May f, 1880, about
300 per cent in (seven fears, A Chi
cago dispatch of June 19 as to the
convention says that "the Elgin Watch
Factory - Military Band entertained

profits: f$r 1887 were more than four

committee and passed, with an uoienil
ment continuing it in force till ; the
adjournment cf the present CongreF.s
instead of till the adjournment of the
present Session, Mr. Plumb, who had
charge of it, stating that Congress
would undoubtedly adjourn within a
few weeks.
After eome time devoted to pis
trict of OJlumbia business the; Senate
took up the river and harbor bill,
some; amendments to which had been
reserved on Saturday for separate
votes.' :'!
The demand for a separate ivote on
the Hennepin Canal amendment was
withdrawn by Mr. Vest on the Bug
geation that the question might be
left to a conference' committee (but
subsequently a motion to recjpnsidsr
was made by Mr. Sherman, " !
In the course of discussion, Mr.
Hoar vehemently denounced the crit
icism and abuse bo generally indulged
in by some Senators and by news-
Eapers in relation to river and harbor
He had got sick, he said, of
bearing Senators trying to blacken
the character of their own associates
in public life by charging: that river
and harbor bills were made, up of
miserable bargains, log-rollings and
cheating. He had taken the most
vilified river and harbor bill ever be
fore the public, had gone over'it item
by item with the reports of engineers
and such Other facts as he co&ld get,
and; had written a letter to his con
stituents defending the bill. A news
paper which had joined in thesisattatcks
and which he was ashamed to Bay got
its 'endorsement from some Senators,
employed one of the ablest mln-in its
editorial staff to answer his letter and
to attack him on the record and this
writer after examining all tbe docu
ments reported to his princ;pal that
Mr. Hoar was entirely right -and be
would not write the article. , It was
av vile slander on the : representatives
of the American people, to 'declare
that these: fiver and harbor bills, to
any considerable extent, to any ap
preciable i extent, to any extent
amounting to five per cent, contained
provisions that were not thoroughly
ueienBibie or tnat were not ae
manded. by ; the interests of in
ternational or inter-State commerce; If
this bill contained improper items f in
any considerable nnmbers the Senator
from Maine (Frye) with character as
unsullied ' as that of any man who
walked on the 'continent was unfit for
his1 place in the Senate ,.(&b chairman
of the committee on commerce) either
by reason of want of capacity; or by
reason of want of integrity. I There
was no alternative.. j i
Mr. Veet. a member of the com
mittee on commerce, took the.regpon
sibility of saying that legislation on
the river and harbor bill was not free
from criticism. Much of it was do net
by a species of agreement, not to say
OgTOlhng. Une Senator went to-an-'
other and asked him to help a matter
in which he was interested, promis
ing to do the same for the other.
Mr. Hoar But are they honest
terns or hot t
Mr. V est mat is another ques
tion. I undertake to say for the com
mittee oni commerce that we have
honestly . tried to do our duty but
have pnt appropriations in the bill
against our , judgment, certainly
against my judgment, because we
have been overwhelmed by personal
solicitation. At the close of a long
discussion the amendment abolishing
tbe Missouri River Commission was
agreed to.
Mr. r aimer offered an amendment
appropriating $350,000 for the pur
phase of Like Superior jship canals.
Mr. Call moved to increase the an
propriation for St. John's River, Fla.,
from $150,060 to $250,000. . After
arguments in favor of the amend -meat
by Messrs. Call and Pasoo it
was agreed to, yeas 23, nays 18:
Nr. (Jail also moved to insert an
item of $10,000 for the Indian river,
Florida. Disagreed to
Mr. Sherman said-he would not in
sist on his motion to reconsider tho
vote agreeing to the Hennepin Canal
amendment, although; he was opposed
tO 1C 5
Mr. Daniel called for a separate
vote on the amendment reducing the
appropriation for .1 ames nver, Va ,
(below Kichmond) from JSau.UUO to
200,000, and argued againat the
amendment. It waer disagreed to.
The bill was then paasad. The bill
as originally reported from tbe Sen
ate committee on commerce appro
priated $21,502,783 77, As it: finally
passed the Senate today it appropri
ated $22,474,783.77, having .been in
creased by the Senate 912,000,
On motion of - Mr. Hoar tho fishery
treaty and Mr. Morgans resolution
thereon were postponed till Tuesday
of next wifck.
Mr: Turpie then, proceeded to ad
dress the Senate on the President's
tariff message. ;
At the close of Mr . Turpie' speech
the Senate; went into .executive ses
sion, andj at 4:85 adjourned till
Thursday.! r ' j
: i i: house. ;
The following bills were introduced:
By Mr. Herbert, of Alabama, grant
ing right of way through the Fort Mor
gan military reservation to the Bir-
mingham and Navy1 Cove Harbor R.
R. Co., by providing fPr the ."control
and regulation Of the- railroad ac-
Iuired by the United State under ju
icial foreclosure or fotfeitui. (This
is the bill introduced by Mr. 'Ander
son in April last. It is a very long
measure, and Mr. Anderson demanded
its reading in full, in order to con
sume time aid prevent as long as
possible ib tffring of a motion . for
the passage of the Union Pacific
ifmuiiug ubW suspension of
r.tiM rules. For an hour and a half
sue leadibK kik was uninterrupted
iu liis uiouutoi.ouft r aJmg of the bill,
bmt at 12 30 it (jrfokdmgs were di
versified by Mr. Bland, of Missouri,

Diversions were also created by the
presentation of oocjeivuce jeposte On
the diplomatio aid consular appropri
ation bill, the Xatybf railroad bridge
bill and the legislstive appropristion
bill, all of which wo i e agreed to.
The clerk was about to resume the
reading of the Anderson bill when
Mr. Bland, of Missouri, anked unani
mous consent that the call of States
should be completed with the uu.'er
taudiog that no motions to suspend
the rules should be (made.
To this Mr. Hopkins, of Now York,
objected, and Mr. BurrowB, of Miehi
gan, also conditionally objected, sta
ting his desire to pass the dependent
pension bill under a suspension of the
roles.
Then Mr. Clardv, of Missouri, came
forward with a proposition that unan
imous consent be given for present
consideration of the Nicaragua Canal
bill, the situation otherwise to remain
unchanged. In this case, Mr. Hayden,
of Massachusetts was objector and
the regular order i having been de
manded, the clerk once more resumed
the reading of the Anderson bill.
Finally the reading was concluded,
but Mr. Anderson, of Iowa, was on
his feet and he immediately intro
duced a bill to establish a municipal
Code for the District of Columbia, a
volume of 321 pages, and called for
its reading. A quarter of an hour
was then consumed in an ineffectual
effort to break the deadlock, Mr. Hol-
man,
of Indiana, endeavoring to
se
cure unanimous consent, ior
consideration of the land for
feiture bill while Mr. Cannon
of Illinois, and Mr. Bayne, of Penn
sylvania, voiced the desire of the Re
publicans to proceed to the consider
ation of the dependent pension bills.
Then, with the view of securing time
to effect a compromise, Mr. Bland, of
Missouri, moved a recess for thirty
minutes. On this motion no quorum
voted and a call of the House was
ordered. Two.hundred and eighteen
members responded to their names
and Mr. Mills, of, Texas, moved an
adjournment. Lost yeas 87, nays
104. Mr. Mills then demanded the
regular order, and the clerk pro
ceeded, to read the : municipal code
bill introduced by Mr. Anderson-
Mr. Hatch, of .Missouri, said that
it was perfectly evident that the read
ing of the bill would consume all the
time up to fire o'clock when the
House would have to adjourn under
the previous order. Id the interest
of tne convenience of members and
clerks he moved an adjournment and
at 3 20 the motion prevailed. .

SHUT-DOWN.
THE LOOKOUT IN THE IRON
REGIONS-
PHOoaaas ok tbx rtaHT Binrzas thi
WORKINOMM aHD THI aUBHBS
OTHXB KIW8.
By Telegraph to the News and Observer.
Pitvsbobg, July 2- Two more sig
natures to the amalgamated scale
were reported this morning. They
were the Laughlin Iron Company of '
Leechburg, Pa , and tbe ; Findlay
Iron Company, of Findlay, Ohio.
This news was the occasion of consid
erable rejoicing about the workmen's
headquarters. But according to the
manufacturers, the action of these
firms was discounted before the lock
out;began. The shut-down does not
affect every workman in and around
the mills, as has been reported.
Many of those departments that are
not governed by the Amalgamated
Association scale will continue in op
eration. Jones & Laughlin employ 4,000
men at the American Iron Works but
only 2,000 of them are affected. The
o hers are employed in the; machine
shops and other departments of the
mills. They will continue work as
long as they have iron; and if trade
will warrant, an effort will be made to
purchase material in the east.
The pipe mill of A. M. Byers & Co.
will also ; continue in operation.
Although their rolling mill is closed
about 500 men are employed here, or
about two-thirds of the entire num
ber. A telegram from' Youngs town
says: There is no change in the situ
ation at the miUs here, all being idle
and many employees leaving to en
joy the vacation elsewhere. At the
sheet mills of Summers & Co , one of
that firm said this morning ;that they
would pay the Bcale of prices and the
employees were willing to resume
work on Thursday morningjif there was
no interference from the officers of
the amalgamated association. The
company has never signed the scale,
though paying scale wages, ' A tour
of the mills today shows the lock-out
here to be more complete than, was
expected. All mills but a few non
union concerns and the machine
works of Jones & Laughlin are shut
down. The works of Oliver Bros. &
Phillips, who signed the scale, are
also shut down, but operations will
be resumed in a few days. The iron
workers explain the general suspen
sion by saying that many of the mills
have closed for repairs, and point to
kue unus Bingmng tne ecaie as one
evidence that it is only a question of
comparatively short time until others
follow their example.
.there is intense interest as to what
Cornogiaand Phillips will do. All
tneir works are shut down today, and
no scale has been signed by them. It
is probable that representatives of
the firm will hold a conference with
the amalgamated officials, and a re
daction, especially at the steel Works,
will be insisted on. This afternoon
neither side showed ant signs of
weakening.
A Vlght Between TJ. S, Marshals and Des
peradoes. .
Br Telegraph tt the News and Observer.
MosooGKX, July 2. A desperate
fight between United States offioers
and two notorious desperadoes took
place at a Green Corn dance near
Euf aula late Saturday night. United
States Marshals Phillips and Mc-
Glaughlin attended the dance with
the expectation of arresting some es
caped ontlaws. They found two
whom they wanted, brothers, named
Barrett. The Barrett's refused to
surrender and in the fight which fol
lowed Phillips was instantly; killed.
Mcuiaughlin and one of the liarrett
Bros, were riddled with bullets so
that both died shortly. An outsider
named Mcintosh Was shot in the arm
by the surviving Barrett, who: terror
ized the gathering for some time.
Sadden Death,

He had notes and papers on his per

GETTYSBURG.
THI BAUNION Or THI BLUE AND TBI GRAY
- -A SPEECH TROTA GIN. LON08TREET.
A Gettysburg special of Sunday to
the Baltimore Sun Says: All last
night the streets were crowded with
visitorp, some seeking lodging and
others out for a good time. At about
twelve o'clock one of the tents in the
Grand Army camp caught fire, and
one of the occupants was severely
burned about the arms. All day the
trains have been arriving, until the
streets are filled with' a mass bf hu
manity and boarding and lodging are
at the highest possible premium.
At 10 30 the veterans formed, and
led by the Frankfort Band marched
across the road to the National ceme
tery, and on through this to the vine
clad rostrum, where religious services
were held. The scene was unusually
impressive, and when Chaplain Sayres
had finished his sermon, more than a
thousand voices joined in singing
"America." In the evening the usual
dress parade was observed. ; At 2
o'clock the road from town to Rey
nolds's Grove was crowded with car
riages and pedestrians on their way
to witness the exercises of the first
corps. The stand Was packed and
the ground below was crowded with
the veterans and visitors, when, just
as the strains of the band leading the
procession of prominent men who
were to take part in the exercises was
heard coming over the brow of Semi
nary Hill, Cap. Pond, of Wisconsin,
walked up to General Longstreet,
who was sitting on the front of the
platform, and whispered to him
General, come quietly with me. I
think the platform is giving away."
The General at once walked off, and
a second afterward with a crash, the
supports gave way and the structure I
dropped to the ground. The fall was I
but. two feet, and fortunately no one
was injured. By the time order had
been restored the procession mas
entering the woods and the cannon of
the United States Light Battery
thundered forth a salute to Gov.
Beaver. Bishop Potter made a moBt
eloquent prayer. Major E. P. Hal
stead, president of the Association of
the First Corps, in a few words intro
duced Gov. James A. Beaver, who de
livered the address of welcome. Ex
Gov. John 0. Robinson, of New
York, resting on his crutches, then
responded in behalf of the corps. He
thanked Gay. Beaver for his cordial
greeting, but thought it np more
than BeynOlds's! old command de
served, and especially since this State
was noted for its appreciation and
splendid treatment of old soldiers.
He thought it time that the world
should know the important part
played by the First Corps. It had
begun the battle and on tne last day
helped to end it. After the applause
Frank Smythe, the war Governor of
New Hampshire, made a short ad
dress. Major Ilalstead then called
for Gov. A. G. Curtin, but he was
not present, and owing to the absence
of J. Gregory Smith and Frederick
Holbrook, both war Governors' of
Vermont, the present executive of
that State, E J. Ormsbee, was called
upon and made a brief response, in
which be said he had come the whole
way from Vermont to tell the boys of
the First Corps how glad he was that
he had belonged to that glorious com
mand. When Maj. Halstead mentioned
the name of Longstreet, the Gen
eral was given a rousing reception.
He said : "Mr. Chairman, soldiers,
gentlemen and friends : I was not in
time to witness any part of the en
gagement of the first day of Gettys
burg, but am pleased to be here in
time to witness the ceremony com
memorating the days of honor of the
Army of the Potomac, and to express
that sympathy that should go out
from all hearts to those who know
how to appreciate the conduct of sol
diers who offer their lives on the altar
of their country; and who may better
attest the bravery of the defenders
of Gettysburg than those who breast
ed the measure of battle against them,
and who could more forcibly realize
that it was their heroism that grasped
the culminating moment, resolved to
resist the advancing aapira'ions of
State sovereignty with the firmness
that it was justified by the strong
ground upon which fortune cast their
lines amidst these formidable sur
roundings, these rock-bound slopes
and heights reinforced by balls of
lead and iron and ribs of steel and
American valor ! The gage of battle
was pitched, and here the great army
of the South, the pride and glory of
that section, found itself overmatched,
arrested in its march of triumph, and
forced to stand and to recoil, but not
for .want of gallantry, fortitude or
faith. The battle of the second day by
McLane's and Hood's divisions and
part of Anderson's, was as spirited
as some of the dashing efforts of the
first Npoleon, but before the end it
was found to be work to npheave the
mountain. That of the third day,
by Pickett's division, and Trimble's,
marching twelve hundred yards
under the fire of a hundred cannon
and ten thousand of musketry, has
no parallel, nor is likely to have,
in the annals of war. This battle
scene recurs to my mind with vivid
force. The gallant Pickett, at the
head of my own old division, and
Trimble, of even bearing like sol
diers on parade, holding their men to
their desperate work the set features
of the veteran brigadiers Armistead,
Garrett and Kemper, vigilant of their
eompaot files; the elastio steps of the
troops, whose hall-concealed smiles
expressed pleasure in their opportu
nity, marked a period that should fill
the measure of a soldier s pride, and
well did they meet their promise of
their parting salutations with that
confidence that commands success
where iMa possible. Their hammered
ranks moved steadily on, till march
mg up face to face hey fell, their
noble heads at the feet of the foe,
who, standing like their own brave
hills, received with welcome
the shock of this well-adjusted
pattie. sacn is tne sacrifice some'
tunes demanded by the panoply of
armies arrayed for battle. But times
have changed; twenty-five years have
softened the usages of war. Those
frowning heights have given over
their savage tones, and our meetings
are friendly greetings and for cove
nants of tranquil repose. The ladies
are here to grace the serene occasion
and quicken the sentiment that draws
us nearer together. God bless them
and grant that they may dispel the de
lusions tnat come .' .tween the peo
ple, and make the It -id as blithe as a
bride at the coming of the bride
groom." Gen. Fairchild was next
introduced. He said: "Twenty-five
years has made it possible
to sandwich a Yankee and a
Confederate between Yankee Doodle
and Dixie. The men of the
North did not love the men , of
the South less, but they loved
the old flag more; and the men of the
South did not love the old flag less,
but they loved State sovereignty
more, xfiis, Mr. f resident, i tniruc,
tells the whole story. The old: flag
still remains, cries of 'Amen !' and
they all say amen ftom the Gulf to
the lakes."
General J. B. Gordon, of Georgia,
is expected in .the morning, accom
panied by a considerable number of
Confederate veterans, under escort
of the Gate City Guard. About
thirty of the Pickett survivors came
in this morning, and are quartered
in the government tents in front Of
the Springs Hotel.
