HOCil ADJ0U3HB TILL MONDAY tIKATOR ALLISON OH "CULM " By teleerph to the Newt and Observer. SVASHnroTOR, October 11 Sehatb After the transaction of some routine businees, of no pnblio interest, the Bflhato reaumed consideration of the tariff bill, and Mr. Chaoe continued the speech which he had begun yes terday, and which was chiefly direct ed to review of: the merits and demerits of the two parties in regard to the postal serrice. At the close of Mr. Chace's remarks, Mr. Allison with an assumption of grarity moted that the tariff be now taken up and feigned surprise on be ing informed by the presiding officer that that bill was before the Senate. Mr. Dolph said that there was some aniiety felt on the north Pacifio coast in regard to the provisions of the Senate bill ai to the tariff on obal, and he asked Mr. Allison if the Sen ate bill put eoal on the free list in any form. Mr. Allison Bftid in reply that he ha several inquiries in the same di rection. Goal Black or culm of coal was put on the free list, but that was one of the mistakes of the bill and should bave been corrected before the bil was reported. It was the inten tion of the finance .committee (at least a majority) that coal slack or calm should pay a duty as now, or perhaps an increased duty. Mr. Dolph Will the Senator state what that article ie? Mr. Allison It is refuse coal which passes through a half inch screw, ac cording to Treasury regulations. But it is difficult to distinguish coal and coal alack, so the committee proposes to put all coal on the dutiable list at the, rate now provided by law 75 cents per ton. That is one of the amendments which the committee will propose at tbe proper time. bit. (Jail renewed Mr. riatt s argu ment yesterday as to sectional con spiracy against labor. Mr. Hawley said that he had brought bis notes and documents with the Intention of making a speech of an hoar or an hour and a half's dura tion, but he frankly confessed that he had. not the courage. His heart failed him, partly because his heart was, in another place. He was very glad Chat the Senate bill had been re ported. He thought it a rerr good bill f-perhaps th beat first draft on tariff bill ever submitted to Cton- grew. It was built on a definite prin ciple the maintenance of the old doctrine of protection that which had been (excepting at intervals) the 'doctrine of the country and that wa' the doctrine of all the large eirilixed cations with 'one exception. Those Senators who desired to speak upon it could do so, but the people were not looking to the Senate nor earing what it said or did in the mat ter.:; Nobody believed that, the bill could be discussed item by item and disposed of at this session, fit had inevitably to go over till December. his humble judgment the best thing the Senator a could do was to go home and he for one was going. Mr. Beagan next addressed the Senate. He favored the House bill as against the Senate -biUTlhbugh' he would not say that ha would vote for very item in one Or against every itent in the other. Ia the course of his speech th statement br Mr. Reagan aa to the amount annually transferred to the pockets of the manafacturers through the operation i of the tariff attracted the - attention of f Mr. Aldrioh i whoj desired aa explanation of i the statement not jar. AJoncn s inquiries and Mr. Reagans explanations seemed to eon- i the matter more and more and after spending nearly an hoar over he matter, an effort i; to disentangle was abandoned on both sides. The conference reports On the bill, for "fourth of Joly claims" and on the bill to retire Gen. Pleasanton as maj or were presented and agreed to. M. Dolph moved that when tbe 8enete adjourn today; it be till Mon day. .;: Mr. Hoar Could we not adiourn without davf . The motion was.agreed to and the senate alter a brief executive session adjourned until Monday. aotwsi In his ODenine tiraver this mornim? the chaplain of the House feelingly referred to the disasters which have recently occurred on sea and land and: invoked Divine protection and blessings upon those who bave been bereaved by the loss of relatives and mends. Already depleted the uouse was still further depleted by the granting of half a dozen leaves of absence, one of them being to Mr. Cheadie, of In diana, who expressed a desire to-"visit his constituents." Mr. Stone, .of Missouri, presented ana toe uouse adopted, the confer enoe report on the bill for the pay ment for tbe 4th of July claims. Mr. Whitthorne, f Tennnessee. asked unanimous consent to set apart December 12th for the consideration of the .bill-to organize a naval serve. ' -. aft re- Mr. Kugore, of Texas', safa that he was - under the painful necessity of objecting, but he yielded to the elo quence of Mr. Whitihorne. and with; drew his objection, Which, however, was immediately renewed by Mr. E B. Taylor, of Ohio. : On motion of Mr Richardson, o lennessee, joint resolutions were passed for the printing of the first and second annual reports of the Qommis sioner of Labor and-the annual re port of tbe Director Of j the Mint. T tt'L wk -wry I. air. nice, oi niinnesota, caned up the report of the special committee inveatigausg me coargee pi miBcon duet on the part of Mr. Stahlnecker, of New York, in connection with the new library building. A report which completely exonerated Mr. btahl necktmas a lopted without discus sioo, ' ..''''' ; Mr L&nhi'n, of Texas, said that in view: of the natice siven br Mr. Tay 1 lor and Others that no busisMS should be transacted, he would not ask them to take np the private business, but in lieu thereof he moved that when the House adjourned today it be jo meet Monday next, i This motion Was agreed to. " Tbe House went into committee pt the whole on the private 'calendar. The pending business was the Sen ate bill for the incorporation of the Maritime Canal Company of Nica ragua. Mr. Poller, of Iowa, offered c amendment providing that the diren tore with the approval of the majori ty of the stockholders may adopt regulations and ' ' by-laws but a change shall be made except by tt majority vote of the stockholders at a special meeting. After the discuss sion had run some time it was sua pended long enough to enable Mjr. Hooker of Mississippi, to present and the House to agree to the confer ence report on the bill to retire Alfred Pleasanton with the 'rank of Major. The consideration of the Nicaragua bill - having been resnmed the question was on Mr. Fuller's amendment. The vote stood 28 to ji and Messrs. Turner, of Kansas, ana Lawler, of Illinois, rained the point cf no quorum and the committee thereupon rose. I Mr. Oates, of Alabamba, asked eon- Bent to print in the Record some re marks upon the subject cf the tariff. It was due to the House to state that what he desired to print was an essay by Q. W. Stone, Chief Justice oi tK Supreme Court of Alabama, and was more of a legal than a political argu ment. Is Mr. O'Neill, of Pennsylvania, bad no objection "to the request, but he expressed his disappointment that Mr. Oates had not asked unanimous consent for the passage of his final adjournment resolution, to which he (O Neill) was sure there would be no obiection. Mr. Farquahar, of New York, how? ever, objected to Mr. Oates' reques If tbe House started to print the es says of outsiders, it might as wel print the Democratic campaign book Several efforts were made to Becure an adjournment or recess until even ing, but they were all rejected. For the first time in two weeks a roll call waflLordered, the motion being to ad ioofxL The motion was defeated- yeaaS, nays 43. A subsequent moi tionr to adjourn prevailed, and by a" vote'xof yeas 32, nays 31, the House adjourned until Monday. Tcllow Vt-rmr. By Telegraph to the Newt and Observer. WiASHiitGTOir, D.

C , Oct. 9 Dockery and Deveieux met here to day as usual, accompanied by about one hundred men on mules and horses. This is the same escort that has followed them from place to p'ace for several days. It has been called I. "V 7.' - i 1 T i ' jxtrrt b cuviury oj luo xeiaocrats in these parts. They come in making more fuss than the same number of lunatics could possibly do. They are satisfied the only hope is to bull-doze the people of the west into making them believe the Republican party has not played out. A division of time was asked for and refused. The chairman of the Democratic commit tee stood up in front of the court house, where the crowd had assem tfed, and stated that Capt. Kite bin would speak in thd Baptist church, and invited Democrats and all others who desired to hear bim to follow. The crowd divided, the Republicans going into tne Court -House, tbe Democrats to tbe church. Caotain Eitohia receiving the lion's share. Devereux began speakiDg to his party by trying to explain why Kcichin was herr, but failed to convinco his hearers. The Demo crats are gaining ground by these re peatea references to divide time. The people of the West believe in fair play. Devereux continued, making the same slanderous speech that he has delivered for the past seven days, abusing Cleveland, Fowle, Bain, Hitchm and Wbitaker. Devereux s speech has been shortened. He says little outside of his slanderous, ma licious and defamatory charges. Dockery has added to his cut-and-dried speech. He begins now by ex plaining to his hearers why Kitchin is following him. He said it was un- gentlemanly, not fair and he would never divide time, here or hereafter. He went on with his tame and flat re marks upon tbe revenue, the tariff, etc. Dockery produces no enthusi asm whatever. His hearers begin to leave before he is half through and I believe if he spoke much longer than he does the rooms would be vacant- Devereux causes some laugh ter, particularly when he makes fun of Cleveland, but no applause save what a clown might excite. Capt. Kitchin is doing a great work, not only in converting Repub licans, but his style (and this means lots) of denouncing Radicals and de fending the , gentlemen' upon whom Dockery and Devereux make such wilful misrepresentations, is truly wonderful. He calls a spade a spade and the people are highly pleased vntn ms speecnes. NOTIS. Devereux at Boooe said: "There is not a man on the Democratic State ticket but what is besmeared with fraud." How utterly driven to the wall are Dockery, Devereux and Linney! They resort to all kinds of tricks and slander, j Kitchin has not only cap turea tne erowas , at almost every place, but they are so completely dumbfounded that they hardly know now to proceed or what to say. Devereux is so much put out that he is catching at straws. He male a statement at Boone to the effect. that Mr. Tom Settle had told him that the reporter of the Nxws and Ob sxbvkb had told him (Settle) that Kitchin had been sent, west to keep Democrats from listening to Repubh can speeches. lbe reporter thereupon arose and asked to m&b) a statement. This was granted and the reporter denied the cnarge, as a base Blander. This ts the first division of time that has been granted. This shows how scared up they are. resorting to all kinds of false statements and slan derous charges. The people of this country are actuated by principle and are not easily carried away by the deceptive sophistry of these Republi can tricksters. From the time this Republican bushwhacking canvass began at Tay lors vuie until now Uliver Dockery has charged daily in - his speeches that Cleveland and Fred Douglass sat at dinner together: that Mrs Cleveland kisses negro wenches; that Democrats hire white women to "nig gers. Of course they won t divide time with any truthful Democrat. It seems impossible for any of them to tell the truth, even upon truthful matters. ' Linney became diegueted at Boone and quit the canvass. This makes two run off, Settle and Linney Dockery and Devereux are now alone and they wish the time had come to close the canvass. They look sick HuoB and Simmons at Knfleld. Special to the Hews and Obserrer. EsrisiD, N. C , October 12 By far the largest Democratic meeting for many years past was held here today The crowd was not less than three thousand, and many estimated it at four thousand. Hon. Thos. W. Mason and Hon. F. M., Simmons held thi large audience for nearly four hours without a break in the attention Nearly one-half of the multitude was composed of colored men, wnosa en thusiasm for Simmons was as marked and decided as that of the whites. No better work has ever been done from the hustings. At Salt Lake City, Utah, the other day, the Supreme Court en tered a final decree in the Mormon Church case, declaring the dissolu tion of tbe Mormon Cnurch as a cor poration, and decreeing that all its property, both real and personal, shall become escheated to the Gov ernment tor school purposes in Utah. The court holds that polygamy is still tenet of the Mormon faith, and therefore denies the application of in dividual members of the cburoti to hare the escheated property trans ferred to them.

C, Oct 12 Dockery could not fill his appointment here to day on account of sickness. Devereux and Mott addressed the crowd in the Court House. About five hundred persons were present, about one-third negroes. Devereux repeated his slan derous charges against Fowle, Ran som, Mernmon, Bam, Jams, Whita ker and others. Mott made a fair Re publican speech. Kitchin asked for a division of time, but was refused At the conclusion of the Reoublican peaking he addressed Democrats and others in the Court House, about five hundred being preeent, making one cf his most telling and eloquent speeches, which was received with applause and cheering. He de nounced Devereux as a liar and slanderer and refuted the charges against Fowle, Bain and others. He read a letter written by Devereux in 1880 to John Gray Bynum defend ing Fowle against the same charges ne now maxea. i ne letter caused a great sensation. It convicts Deve reux of lying out of his own mouth. iviicnen a speech has aroused en thusiasm among the Democrats. His piea lor county government waa splendid and effec ive. His tariff ar gument was masterly. He denounced tne itepuDiican party in unsparing terms, and held up Dockery and Deve reux to the scorn and contempt of nonorable snen. ... Devereux admitted in his speech that the Democratic party were right in impeaching Holden. ' He speaks at waynesville tomorrow. HKW APPLICATIOX OS-All OLD STORY.

The voter must have a certificate from the registrar where he formerly lived. All Democrats should look to the matter end be careful that their votes are not lost by negligence.
