Joint resolution for the adjustment of
the amount due to the State of South
Carolina for the rent of the Citadel

The Senate then resumed the con
sideration of the army appropriation

amendment offered by Mr. Hawley,
Appropriating $750,000 for an armory
gun factory at Watervliet Arsenal,
Y.) $57,000,000 for the purchase
of steel for high power coast

chase of sub-marine mines, and $100,
000 fbr sub-marine controllable tor
pedoes. The amendment was agreed
to and the bill was reported back
from the committee of the whole to
the Senate.
Mr. Berry called for a separate vote
on Mri Hawley'a amendment and pro
ceeded to address the Senate in op
Dositioa to it-
'Mr. : Gorman also opposed the
amendment. He did not believe that
the artny appropriation bill was the
proper place for the consideration of
the question, but if the S(enate were
to enter on i'B consideration, he
should have proposed as an amend
ment a proposition tha had been
thoroughly considered 1 elsewhere
(meaning the House committee on
appropriations) appropriating $38,
000,000 to be expended in certain
amounts yearly up to 190?. Mr. Gor
man thereupon sent to the clerk's desk
and had read, a very lengtKy project of
a law rjroTidjng withlgreat yarticnlari
ty for the testing of new guns, and
for the buppIt of a certain: number of
those that had stood a test of 200
rounds. After a dabate between Mr.
Gorman and Mr. Hawley:,' Mr. Gor

The Senate then proceeded to the
consideration of the . fisheries treaty

addressed by Mr. Wilson,; of Mary
land, in favor of. its ratification,
Following-Mr. Wilson, MrSaulsbury
took the floor, and said he would, aa

Mr. Teller made another attack
upon Secretary Bayard, commented
nTvnn what hn Railed some ci tne re
markaUe statements in the' speech o:
the Senator from Missouri and spoke
of the edict haTinir gone .out from the
Whit. House that the treaty was to
be srrenorted. He accused Mr. Wil
nn of having ooenlT espoused the
Canadian side of the question and of
baying gone beyond Canadian states
men in advocating their cause. His
remarks provoked retorts from Messrs
Wilson, Saulsbury and Morgan
Mr, Morgan said if he were Fresi
Ami of the United States e would
withdraw the treaty from eonsidera
tion until the Senators got their
minds Clear enough to consider it on
it merits. He believed tnat tne
honorable and venerable statesman in
front of him (Mr. Evarta) would, from
his knowledge of diplomacy, do it
He would withdraw it and send it
back after the political campaign had
ended and after the motives for polit
ical strife had ceased.
Alter further discussion, partici
oated in by Messrs. Evarts, Teller,
Hoar and Vance, the matter went
fiTr without action.
Two Presidential vetoes were read
and referred and the Senate adjourned
till tomorrow.
HOUSE
On mntion of Mr. Uowden, of Vir
ginia, the Senate bill was passed ap
propriating $75,000 for enlarging the
iron wnari at r ortrees juuurutj, -
On motion of Mr. Townshend, of
Illinois a joint resolution was passed
providing temporarily (until Sept. 1)
for the support of the army.
The House proceeded to the con
sideration of the bill to provide for
postoffice buildings. The report ac
oomrjanVincr the bill explains its pro
visions a? follows : It proposes to I
establish a plan for the construction
of public buildings for theuse exclu
sively of the Fostofficy Department
of a uniform cbarae'er and which
shall be especially adopted for the
purpose of that department. Its pro
visions operate only in places where
the cross receipts amount to $3,000
annually for two successive years.
Th. AitrAme limit of cost to the
United : States for any building
shall not in any case exceed ?25,00U
KnViiwfc to these limitations u pro
,;la fnr three classes of buil lings,
varvinff in cost according to tue
ommmt ni CTOfrB receiDlS aa lUi.uwc.

' i i C 1.1 A
ins years exceea twenty uvo muuoauu
dollars, the cost ox bucu vuuiug
the United Btates may oo a sum uwl
exceeding twenty-five thousand dol-
ara .unm where BUCn HTUBB re
ceipts for each of the two preceding
years exceed twenty thousand dollars
and shall have been no more than
twenty-five thousand dollars, tbe coat
of such building shall not exceed to
the United States twenty thousand
dollars; third, where such gross re
ceipts for each of the two preceding
years shall be three thousand dollars,
and not more than twenty thousand
dollars, the cost of sach building
shall not exceed to the United States
fifteen thousand dollars.'
Under the first class there are
46 cities in which the gross postofScs
receipts during each of the past two
years have exceeded $25,000. Under
the provision of this bill tne limit ior
the erection of these lorty-nve post-
office buildings would be one miilioi,
ono hundred and twenty
five thousand dollars, itu
interest at three per cent of this sum
is thirty-three thousand seven han
dred and fifty dollars. The govern
mont at present expends for rent at
these places the sum of sixty one
thousand two hundred and twenty
nine dollars. In the second clasB
there are thirty-four cities or towns,
in which the otoss receipts of p st
offices for each of the past two years
have exceeded twenty thousand dol
lars and have not exceeded twenty
five thousand dollars. The limit of
cost for the erection of these thirty
five postoffice buildings would be six
hundred and eighty thousand dollars.
The interest of this sum at ihree per
cent is twenty thousand four hundred
dollars. The government at present
expends for rent at these places
thirty-seven thousand six hundred
and fifty five dollars. In the third
class there are one thousand three
hundred and fifty-four cities or towns
in which the gross rtce pts for each
of the past two years have reached
three thousand t dollars and not ex
ceeded twenty thousand dollars. In
two hundred and thirty eight of these
places the government pays rent; in
one thousand one hundred and six
teen places, as the law now stands,
the government pays no rent- The
bill appropriates two minion aoaars
to be expended for the purposes of
this act.
Pending action on tho bill, the
morning hour expired and the House
went into committee of the .whole
(Mr. Dackery, of Missouri, m the
chair) on the Ok! ahama bill.
The bill was opposed by air.
Hooker, of Mississippi, who called it
bill to legalize the robbery ol tne
wards of the nation; and favored by
Mr. Stockdale, of Mississippi..
Messrs. Perkins, of Kansas, and
Cobb, of Alabama, thought that the
whole argument on which tne meas
ure was based was that tbe Indian
had no right which a white man was
bound to respect.
Mr. Symes, of Uolo;aao, suggest, a
that the bill provided for a commis
sion to treat with the Indians for
their lands in the usual way.
Mr. Cobb replied that it was this.
"usual way" to which he objected.
The usual way to treat with the In
dian was with a rifle in one hand and
an axe in the other. It was tune the
"nsua"V way" should cease.
Mr. Gannon, of Indiana, oeuevea
that Bound policy, statesmanship and
humanity all dictated that Uongress
should take the lands outside of the
territory of civilized tribes and put
them under a government oi law, ao
that the strong arm of the law should
h laid nDon the white men who, in
the teeth of the law, went upon those
lands. He believed it was sound pol
icy to treat with the Indians so as to
throw open lands to settlement.
was for the bQl because it tended in
the proper direction.
The general debate ciosea bop tae
bill was read by paragraphs lor
amendment.
Mr. Sayers, of Texas, from the com
mittee on appropriations, reported
the fortification appropriation bill,
and it was referred to committee of
the whole.
Mr. Springer gave notice that he
would press the Oklahoma bill to a
final vote tomorrow, and if any dis
position to filibuster against it is
shown, he will the first thing in the
morning ask for a call of the House
im order to secure the attendance of
a quorum. The House then at 5
o'clock took a recess until 8 o'clock,
the evening session to be for the con
sideration of the bills reported from
the committee on judiciary.

GOSSIP ABOUT THE CAPITAL.
By Telegraph to the News and Observer.
Washisoton, July 26. The Presi
dent left here at 11 o'clock this morn
ing by the Pennsylvania railroad for
New York. He was accompanied by
Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Folsom and
Col. Lamont, and it is stated that he
contemplates a salt water fishing excursion.
The outlook for a greatly protracted
session in consequence of last night's
Republican conference decision is not
so threatening as appears to be gen
erally supposed.
Tbe tariff bill of 1883 was under
discussion in the Senate, with inter
missions for other business, lesB than
six weeks. While there is material
interest in the present situation
for an almost endless debate, there ia
also promises that i-he extreme of
possibility will not be tested at the
end of an eight months' continuous
session. It is thought that the com
mittee can complete its bill and its
report within a week or ten days.
The Senate will then probably begin
its sessions at 11 o'clock and sit seven
hours daily, with evening Bessions in
addition as the debate proceeds. The
oertainty of the result and the dif
ficulty of keeping a quorum of the
House, together with little of impor
after the appropriation
bills shall have been disposed of, and
more than else the increasing heat,
rive rise to hopes that six or seven
weeks hence (if not sooner) the pres
ent session will find its record made
ud and its work done. Moreover,
ninAtMn formal tariff speeches by ex
act count have already been delivered
in the Senate.

Timon. Ind., July 20. A temuc
natural gas explosion occurred at the
heading factory oi Jjownn a. nas
kell yesterday afternoon. Fireman
Jake Baughman was dangerously
burned and may die. The explosion
ignited a huge dry hoase and in less
than half an hour the flames spread
to all parts of the factory and more
than an acre of dry heading ready for
shipment was in flames. For three
hours 1,000 men worked desperately
before the fire was gotten under con-
1 trol. The business portion of tbe
city was in danger. All the business
men closed their doors and turned
out to help fight the fire. Bowlin &
Haskell's losses will amount to $40,
000, with no insurance. Several small
buildings near the yards were also
burned, entailing a loss pf $3,000 or
more.

Repmbllcaa Tariff Bill.
Vrom the Baltimore Bun. ;
- Washington,, July 25. The Repub
lican Senators have agreed to report
a tariff b:ll to tbe Senate, consider it
ana YtAAH ia before adjournment. This
conclusion was reached tonight at
caucus held at tbe residence of Sena
tor Evarts. on K street. There was
a full attendance, and the subject
was freely discussed. Senator Alli
son, chairman of the sub committee
in charce of the preparation of the
Republican bill, gave a general out
line of the bill it was proposed to
substitute for the Mills bill, and he
also explained why he considered it
good politics to meet the Democra'ic
measure squarely.
Senator Chandler sustained the po
sition taken by Mr. Allison, and cited
the last message of President Arthur
to Bhow that the Republican party
stood pleged to a reformation of the
tariff. Senators Stewart, Palmer,
Blair, Collum, Sherman and others
expressed their views on the subject,
and by a rising vote it was decided
that the finance committee snau con
tinue tbe preparation of its bill and
report it to the Senate as early as
practicable. Senator Allison said
that there would be no difficulty
about passing the bill in the Senate,
but declined to Btate what the feature,
of the proposed measure will be. He
said the committee hoped to be ready
to submit its bill within a few days,
but could not say how much time will
be consumed in discussing it. The
net reduction of revenue to be attain
ed will probably be between sixty-five
and eurhtv millions. No one, not
even members of the finance com
mittee, ventures to guess now at the
length of the session.
Among those who , advocated the
postponement of the tariff question
until the next session was Senator
Quay. He said, however, that it was
for the doubtful States to decide
what should be done in the matter.
It is, therefore, evident that those
States whch are regarded as pivotal
States in the next election favored
the course decided upon tonight.
Bank BUI !
Mr. Vance. Mr. President, I should
like to inquire of the author of the
bill what distinguishes this from any
other banking institution of the
country T If we pay the depositors
of this institution for the losses that
they have incurred by the failure of
the institution, why Bhould we not
pay all other depositors pf all other
banking institutions chartered under
the authority of the United States t
I confess, sir, that I can see no
reason for it, and before I vote upon
the bill, disposing of over a million
dollars of money to make good the
defalcations of some dishonest men
connected with this institution, I
should be glad to have a reason given
to me for a vote in its favor.
Mr. Sherman. When this subject
was discussed the other day by the
Senate there were quite a number of
gentlemen on that side of the Cham
ber and on this side who gave reasons
why the bill should pass, although it
would not be a good rule for us to
pay all depositors of broken national
banks-
Mr. Vance. I was not present when
the discussion was had in the Senate,
i ..o uub aware mat one nad
place.
The peculiar circumstances seem to
be that the colored people were the
wards of the nation, I suppose, and
that they were led to believe that this
was a government institution man
aged by government officers, and that
the faith of the government was
pledged to make good their deposits,
and 10 see that they were properly
treated, etc.
The kindest and the best thrng that
can be done with the colored race in
this country is to teach them to de
nend unon themselves. The ward
business began at a very early period.
It is time that they should either be
the wards of the nation or that they
Bhould be independent freemen, learn
ing to depend upon themselves and
not to depend upon the government
one or the other.
As wards it is assumed that these
- ii -i ii
persons were so ignorant ; tnat tuey
did not know the risk they were run
ning when they deposited their money
in a chartered institution, tnat tney
believed, in their trusting and im
plicit ignorance, that they were to be
aken care of by the faith oi tne na-
tioii, and that everything that nad
the government of the United States
attached to it means a solemn guar
anty to them of their rights and privi
leges and property, &c.
That has ,ail gone by, sir, and at
the same time that we are now asked,
in consideration of their ignorant con
dition, their condition of inchoate
citizenship, to make good a'l the losses
incurred in this bank, they were as
freemen thought to be wise enough
and statesmanlike enough and free
men enough to entrust with the des
tinies of whole btates in this country,
to take charge of the laws, the prop
erty, the rights, liberties and tne civ
ilization of my State for one, and for
many others, and were placed over
the heads of the white people in those
governments. If they were able and
sufficiently enlightened to take charge
of the destinies of a free, civilized
Commonwealth, surely they were able
to deposit their money in a banking
institution and to take the risks there
like any one else.
To bold them as wards wherever a
defalcation of a bank is to be made
good, and to hold them as enlight
ened and civilized freemen wherever
a political purpose is to be maintained
by giving them full charge of a whole
State and its destinies, I think is en
tirely inconsistent.
When this bill was introduced it
contained a general provision to make
good all the depositors who nad not
been satisfied by the assets of the
bank. It turned out that quite a
number of those depositors were
white people. Now, the bill is
amended so as to strike them out,
and we ara absolutely to make a dis
tinction in violation of the constitu
tion of the United States, which says
that no distinction shall be made on
account of race, color, or previous
oondition of servitude. We are to
pay the colored man all that he was
robbed of by the officers of this bank,
and tbe white man is to iook out ior
himself and gets nothing because he
should have known better.
Sir, the whole business ia wrong.
These colored people must learn to
distinguish in their business lisks
just SB the white people have learned
to distinguish. They must learn the
creat truth that every man who calls
himself a philanthropist and friend of
the eolored man is not necessarily bo,
and that the louder in fact he talks
philanthropy and love of them the
more likely he is to steal what they
inntrust to him. They have that les
son to learn. If one is to be paid I
am in favor of paying the other.
There is no justice in any other
course.

conviction is generally entertained

Rosnarkabla Seen at a Captare.
Charlotte Chronicle 26th.
Officer W. S. Clanton yesterday had
a lively experience in arresting a pris
oner in Mallard Creek township. He
was after a darkey named Scott Cowan,
who was wanted in Cabarrus county
for larceny, and succeeded in coming
up with him without difficulty. When
Scott realized that he was in the
hands of an officer he swore he would
die rather than be taken to jail, and
so saying he drew an old pocket knife
and commenced slashing away at his
throat. Mr. Clanton and two color
ed men tried to disarm him, but he put
up a stout fight, and a severe struggle
ensued. Scott, fust cut himself on
the left Bide of his throat, and during
the struggle be succeeded in gashing
the right side before he could be dis
armed. In the meantime, the mule
attached to Mr. Clanton's buggy be
came frightened and dashed off in a
wild runaway, the result of which wa
that the buggy was smashed all to
pieces. After Scott was subdued his
wounds were dressed and his throat
was tied up in rag, when a buggy,
voluntarily offered by Mr. Cochrane,
was procured and the unwilling pris
oner was brought to jail. The knife
he used was a dull one, otherwise he
might have succeeded in carrying out
his suicidal intention. As it was, his
throat was pretty Beverftly gashed.

The "pretty typewriter" is a new

Specimen Pension Bronght to
Washington, July 21. President
Cleveland's veto of the Senate bill
giving a pension to Mary Ann Dough
erty bids fair to become one of the
best known of his messages. It was
in reply to this message that the pen
sions committee brought in its re
markable partisan report concerning
the President's use of the veto power,
and there is good reason to believe
that the Republican Senators would
be glad if Mary Ann Dougherty had
never been heard of. When the com
mittee's report was first issued it was
regarded as such an admirable Re
publican campaign document that a
resolution was offered for the print
ing of 5,000 extra copies, to be sent
out under the franks of Republican
Senators. The resolution is still be
fore the Senate, and has been the
cause of several warm political de
bates, in Vhich the Democrats have
won all the honors. It was while de
bating this resolution that the senior
Senator fromNew Hampshire was so
severely "sat upon" by Mr.Butler.But
the worst scoring the Republicans
have yet received was administered
today by Mr. Cockrell. The resolu-
ness in the morning hour, and Mr.
Dawes assumed the difficult task of
showing that the bill was meritorious
and Bhoifld be passed despite the veto.
He undertook to break the force of
the President's statement that Mary
Ami Dougherty was a woman of bad
character, who had been nine times
arrested for drunkenness, larceny and
other misdemeanors, by reading from
police court records showing the arrest
of "Mary Dougherty," "Mary A.
Dougherty," t'Aun Dougherty,
These, he declared, were the names of
different persons, and, therefore,
Mary Ann l)ougherty was not arrest
ed nine times. Mr. Dawes was gener
ous enough to say that he thought
the President had been deceived by
the satellites of the Pension Office,
and Mr. Cockrell promptly pointed
out that three-fourths of the Pension
Office force were Republicans. Mr.
Dawes laid special stress upon the
indorsement of the claimant' -character
by Admiral Porter and George
Bancroft, the historian. Mary Ann
Dougherty claimed a pension for in
juries received in an explosion at the
Washington Arsenal while making
cartridges in 186i In a very few
minutes after Mr. Cockrell took
the floor to reply to Mr.
Dawes, he convinced the Repub
licans that he knew something
about the Dougherty case. He made
the plain issue that the woman was
not employed in the arsenal in 1864,
and was not hurt in the terrible ex
plosion which occurred there. He
challenged the pensions committee to
produce a line of evidence to show
that she was employed as she claimed,
and he declared that her whole story
was an infamous falsehood and fraud
ulent concoction, gotten up to work
on the sympathies of the Senators.
He also challenged the committee to
bring in a report that the signature
of George Bancroft to the woman's
certificate of character was the genu
ine signature of Bancroft, the histo
rian. Mr. Cockrell went on to show
that the explosion did not oocnr at
the time alleged by the claimant.
Af Ler that explosion Congress appro
priated $2,000 to be distributed
among the injured. Every person re
ceiving any of this aid signed a re
ceipt, but Mary Ann Dougherty's
name was not in the list. "She was
not in the arsenal," said Mr. Cockrell,
"and she was not blown up. The
Senator challenged her statement that
she had a son killed by machinery in
the navy yard, and concluded his
speech with a hearty defense of the
President for doing his duty. Mr.
Teller wanted to take up the cudgels
for the Republicans, but Mr. Hale
thought it would be better not to stir
the matter up any more just now, and
he stopped the debate by calling up
the naval appropriation bill-
