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.

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.

A bad THE PRESIDENT T IKE8 A HDL ID V THE TABIVP OUTLOOK 15 THE SENATE 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. Kzplodon f n ataimt Urn. Br Telegraph to the Mews and Observer. 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. Grand Reception to Emperor William. lly Cable to tbe News and Observer.. Lohdon, July 26.

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. CHARLOTTE.

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. A New Discovery. Eichmond Whig.

John S. Pescud, sole agent for Ral- eighn, N. C. 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- A DISCOVERY A MARKET BASKET FULL DYNAMITE OF FOUND III TH HIDING FLICK OF THE CBI-' CAOO PTXAMITKB8 TBE WIFE OF ONE OF THI FLOTTKaS POINT CUT THE SPOT.
