The damage done by the frosts of

Haywood counties the tobacco re
gion of Western North Carolina, is
immense and deplorable. All the un
gathered crop is injured. That
amounts to about one-fourth to one-
third of tho entire erop. The crop
of the past fiscal year, October 1,
1887, to October 1, 1888, sold in
Asheville markets amounted to 3,901,

Copyright Cablegram to New York Times.
Loxdob, Oct. 1. Excitement over
the Whitechapel murders has steadly
increased during the day, the evening
papers devoting all available space to
the gory details. As in the preceding
cues, however, the murderer eon
tinues unknown and unsuspected. 1
The Coroner baa began an inquest
on the first woman. As before, in all
these horrible crimes, the duty of in
vestigation seems to devolve on the
Coroner, and the detectives sit at tne
inquest listening to the sworn testi
mony to find out who did it. Ane
whole police management 01 tne cases,
as indeed : the system under which
they work, is idiotic in the extreme.
Indignation meetings were held in
several places in Whitechspel today
to denounce Sir Charles Warren and
Home Secretary Mathews. The Dauy
uekffrapa this morning called loudly
for Mathews's dismissal, sinoe he had
not sense enough to resign. A peti
tion to the Queen is jn preparation,
asking her to offer a reward, Mathews
having stupidly refused.
The Lord Mayor promptly offered
500 reward this morning, the seoond
murder having been committed within
the precincts of the oity. This, with
other private rewards, makes a total
of 1,200.
There are any amount of theories
published, some scientific, others in
genious, and others stupid. There
are plenty of clues also, but they are
slight, and show no signs of develop
ing the murderer. The only traoe
considered of any value is the story
of a watohboy who saw a man and
woman leave Aldgate station going
toward Mitre square. Abe man re
turned shortly afterward alone. The
police have a good description of him.
The daring character ol tne mux
ders is evident from the fact that two
people at least saw a man and the
woman together in the Berner street
eatewav. and one saw him throw her
down. He went away and left her
there, but it was half an hour before
it was known that she had been mur
dered. In the seoond case a police
man swears that he was not absent
over fifteen minutes from Mitre
square, and must have been watched
by both man an woman as he went
through, they following.
The police confess tonight that
they have no clues. A number of
men have been arrested, but all were
released. .There is every prospect at
present that these murders, like their
predecessors, will pass undetected

Chicago, Oct. 3 Tho North Bide
street car conductors and drivers de
cided at four o'clock this morning to
go out on strike on next Saturday
morning. The vote by whiea tho
strike was decided upon was 400 to
seven. The meeting of the men to
to take final aotion as to tbo course to
be pursued was not called to order
until after midnight, at which time a
large majority of the conductors and
drivers employed on tho North Side
were present. It was evident from
tbo start that most of the men were
bent on rejecting the offers of Presi
dent Yerkes-
Luke Coyle and Jno. Goodwin of
the advisory board, representing the
street-car organizations of the city,
boldly advocated a strike, assuring
the North Side men that their course
would be supported bv the conduct
ors and drivers of the South
and West sides. The griev
ances of the men are two
fold. ; They oppose tbo "set car"
system and demand increased wages.
By the "set car" system is meant a
schedule or time table by means of
which the men claim to be actually
on duty for 13 hours while they
are only paid for 12 hours. The
hours of work under it are changed
daily, so that they have no regular
time for sleeping and eating, and
their health is consequentlyjmpaired.
They demand 27 cents an hour and
an agreement that they shall not be
compelled to work more than 10 or
less tnan s hours a day. The con
ductors, drivers and grip-men em
ployed on tne Worth Side lines num
ber about 700. Nearly 1,100 are em
ployed on the West Side lines.
Over two-thirds of the city's popu

Ho characterized it as a very conser
vative bill. If it could be taken up
free from party asperities and could
be considered on its merits, ho be
lieved it could be made the most
perfect revenue 4 measure ever
placed on the statute books. Tho
issue between the two bills was to be
(he said) tried before the people. It
was a plain, fair and sqcare issue be
tween a tariff for revenue only and a
tariff for revenue and protection. It
was a question whether the articles
necessary for human life should bo
made by American labor or by foreign
labor whether the wages of Ameri
can laborers should depend on tho
wages of foreign laborers or should
depend upon tho American policy of
protecting all forms of labor and pro
duction. .
At the conclusion of Mr. Sherman's
speech tho Senate, at 1 o'clock, re
sumed the consideration of Mr. Halo s
resolution of Monday last, calling on
tne .secretary or War for an explana
tion of General Benet's circular as to
the discharges of Republican em
ployees in the United States arsenals
and armories.
' Mr. Cockrell proceeded to discuss
the resolution, and opened bis re
marks by reading the Jay Hnbboll
circular, issued on the occasion of tho
presidential campaign of 1882,' calling
fund, such circular having been signed
oy niessrs. A.uison, xiaie, Aioncn ana
Hisoock (the latter then in the House).
He also quoted, Garfield's letter to
Dorsoy, "of somewhat star-route no
toriety," asking him to have Brady,
Second Assistant Postmaster General,
called upon for aid ; and one from
Levi P. Morton to Dorsey, stating
that he had contributed $30,000.
Mr. Morton's name, he said, was
familiar as tho present Republican
candidate for Vice-President ' He
simply reid these letters, he saicL, to
refresh: the memory of the Senator
from Maine (Mr. Hale) and to show
the depth of degradation to 1 which
the civil service of the government
had . been brought under Repub
lican administration in 1880 and 1882.
It could never sink into lower depths
than it sank then. It had become so
utterly decraded that tbe Republican
party was forced to take up and pass
the Pendleton civil service bilL i The
position now occupied bj Mr. Hale
under the pretense of defending that
law was (Mr. Cockrell asserted) "the
stab of a pretended friend." Cleve
land's administration bad enforced
the civil servioe Law and in his (Mr.
Cockrell's) judgment its spirit had
been too strictly adhered to.
Mr. Cockrell (at the close of bis
speech) asserted that President
Cleveland had redeemed and sacredly
kept every pledge that he had made in
reiauon to ineoivii kervice. ah to me
Benet circular, he understood that
the officer was in political . sympathy
with the Senator from Maine, but ho
had no objection to tho adoption of
the resolution, and had no doubt that
the Secretary of War would furnish a
satisfactory explanation. He saw no
wrong in turning Republican soldiers
out of offioe and putting Democratic
soldiers in their place.
Messrs. jtodmunds, Hale, U handler
and Hawley replied to Mr. GoekrelL
Messrs. Chandler and Hawley, re
ferring to the alleged contribution of
ten thousand dollars by the President
to the Democratic campaign fund, as
serted that u such contribution had
been made (and they had never seen
any denial of the charge) the conclu
sion was inevitable that he had com
mitted a crime punishable by fine or
imprisonment or both. Without ac
tion on the resolution or any other
subject of discussion during the af
ternoon, the Senate at 5:85 ad
journed. HCU8X.
On motion of Mr. Herbert, of Ala
bama, the Senate bill was passed
granting tbe right of way to the pen
saoolaand Memphis Railroad Com
pany through the public lands in
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and
Tennessee, and through the naval and
military reservations near Pensaoola.
Mr. T. J. Campbell, of New York,
presented the agreed to conference
report on the bill for the relief of the
survivors of tho wreck of tho United
States steamer Talapoosa. :
A proposition to extend the United
States laws over the publio land strip
gave rise to a considerable discussion.
Mr. Dunn,of Arkansas, character
ized the proposition as an expedient to
defeat the Oklahoma bill and served
notice that no such proposition
should be agreed to by the House
without the presence of a quorum.
Pending aotion on report,
tho
House at .S8 adjourned.
