I ' WASHINGTON XETTEH. : From oor Uegular Correspondent. iPresi Jpnt Cleveland on his retirrn to Washingfor found a radical change for theUtter in the tariff situation. Senator Teller, afier his very sensi ble speech, telling the republican Senators that tbey no longer hd any reasonable excuse for delaying the final vole on the bill, clinched his argument by forcing a test rote on a motion to lay the bill on the table. The motion received the vole of every republican present, 23 in all, and ev ery democrat present imong thinT Senator Hill Jo in allvoted against it, also did three-populist. That vote removed the -'"last vesliiie of doubt about the passage of the bill, and leaves-republican filiibustering without a leg to stand on, the repub licans having claimed that thpy were justified in using the tactics they did by democratic opposition to the bill. They will now he giveu a last chance to agree upon a time to take the final voie. There is a feeling of relief to know-' that- the end is in sight. The Senate committee has conclu ded the taking of testimony in the bribery case, and it is believed that the report will state the belief of the committee to be that Buttz attempt ed to-bribe 'Senators Iltiiiton and Kyle. The committee is now taking testimonyconcerningthe sugar trusts and ils alleged relations' with Sena tors. The House committee on Naval Affairs ha3 begun the investigation of the Carnegie armor plate con tracts, authorized by the resolution this week adopted by the House. Jt will probably be a long one, as it covers all the armor made by the Cariiegie companiss from the begin ning of their contracts wflhTlie gov ernment. 1 X Senator Walsh, of Georgia, was naturally wry much surprised when he learned that the Brotherhood-of Locomotive Engineers regiznhd his bill against any stoppage or niter- ference with trains carrying mails as being aimed against them, and, after telling the Senate that as a journey man printer hris sympathies were and always had been with the laboring men of the country, of whom he was proud to be one, lie introduced an amended bill, which he thinks can not possibly be misconsf rned by any body. The title of the bill is "To protect the United States Mads," and it provides t hat any person who shall rob or attempt to rob or maliciously obstruct or retard for the puipose of robbery the passage of any railroad train on which the mnils are carried shall be punished by imprisonment at hard 1 ibor not less thau one nor more than twenty years. Attorney General On ley, in answer to a resolution adopted by the Sen ate last week, asking .what action had been taken against the trus s under the act of July 2, 1S90, lias furnish ed the Senate with the record of a suit begun ugain-fc the various firms composing t he sugar trust, which was dismissed in the U. S. Court for the Eastern Distrct of Pennsylvania, with costs against; the government, appealed to the Circuit court, w hich affirmed Ihe action of the District court, and which is now before the U. S. Supreme Court on appeal. Mr. Olney does not say so, but it is in ferred from his communication and the accompanying documents that he considers the nuich-talked-about Sherman anti-trust laX a worthless one. Other people suspiioned as much when it was first proposed by Mr. Sherman as a substitute foKa more stringent masure proposed byc:ally speaking. But it has fallen democratic Senators. Coxey, Browne and Jones are in jail, and the deluded men who fol lowed them are on the verge of star vatiou. The lesion should not be lost. Whether Freedom really shrieked when Kosciusko fell is a matter a bout throwing up his hat z.xx giving three cheers aud a tiger for the dem ocrats in the House who had the moral courage to support the amend ment offered by Representative Euloe, of Tennessee, tu the Legislative aud Executive appropriation bill, strikiug out thuapiiropriation for salaries, etc., of the most colossal public sham of the age the Civil Service Com mis -sion, a comraissionwhich, although authorized with the best intentions to make it fair and impartial, has been operated from the first day of its existence to the present time Its a machine for keeping republicans iii office. Mr. Enloe Has offered this amendment several times when this annual appropriation was before the House, but never until now has he succeeded in getting it adopted, arid even now il is not certain that it will stay adopted, as the 109 to 71 was takn when the. House was sitting as a committee of the whole, and the republicans have giveu notice' that they will call for a separate yea andi nay vote on the amendment when the bill is reported back to thfe House from the committee on! the! whole. and they will make u desperate at-j tempt to get "enough democrats tw vote wit h i hem t o defeat t he amend ment i : ' '-. - .. '.. - i . Manufacturers andfthe ! Gold Stan- ' ' : - - dard. : i' i Below ws copy in full from an edit oral from the Atlanta Constitution which contains facts "which" caii ncrt S ' ..... r . i be disputed : " ' "The manufacturers of I cotton goods do not seem "to be doing-any better tinder the gojd standard than the railways. The dry goods piar ket, according to the reports of those who keep an eye on such matters, is not any livelier than the freight jausi ness. ' v ' ! ' The Fall River ' manufacturers have on hand 502,000 pieces of goods as against G,000 1892 The Provi dence manufacturers have on hand 227,000 pieces as against none in 1S132. In . tvyo centers, therefore, t here are 750,000 'pieces held; in hand for which there is no demand, as ag-ainst 0,000 pieces in 1802- This is a bad showing, but it fails to tell the wh-de story. There is -no busi ness of importance-in the dry gixwls trade we get our facts frmn the Nevy YorEc Financial Chronicle and the outlook is so depressing that there are rcpnts of impelling ..stop pages of a number of mills that are running out of oidrs. They prefer to shut down rather than manufac ture unsold goods. The reason there is no business for the. mil la is because there is no de mand for their goods. The reason there is no demand for thir goods the reason they are cutting down wags or prepai'ug to shut up shop is because the producers of the country whose prosperity sets ail forms of business in motion have been parahzed by low prices. The reason the purchasing power of the dollar is increasing in value is be cause it is measured in gold on which to base a redeemable currency suffi cient for the needs of the people. A nation is compelled to cut its business out to til the 'available -supply of primary money. When' that supply is limited, business will be limiled. Wnen it is scarce, business will pructieaily come to a standstill, and prices ot commodities cease to be remunerative. The railway busi ness is coming to a standstill because trade is at a stand-till. -The cotton mills cannot sell their goods because the producers ot the country are un able to buy. The profit Kble cultiva tion of the land is the source of all prosperity. When the products of the soil cease to fetch faiily remun erative prices then every other in terest must suffer in propoition. At this monent, alter gathering .'nd marketing the staple crops of 1893, the far met s of the United States are less able to ouy by $2,000, 000,000 than if they had received the prices of 1860-73 for their great sta ple crops. No a' two thousand, mill ion dollars is a pretty considerable sum when you come to iefl et over it ard examine it. Scattered arounr1, as agriculture scatters it, it would j keen a :ood manv mills running and I large numbers ot people employed for a considerable time. It would put new life in every form of indus try, and give trade a much-needed impulse. If the loss had fallen on the farmers alone they would have been wiped out of existence, finan- oxthe whole country. Of all the peophjjn the. world the farmers alone are independent of trade and; com merce' If eery ship were sunk to morrow if every railway were de stroyedif commerce were brought to a sudden end the farmers would still be able to earn theirwn living nd make themsdves"fairly comfort able. They were at the birth i f trade and commerce and they would survive their obliteration. ! The money question, therefore, is less an issue for the farmers than fori the business men, the manufacturers and the railway managers. Rev. F. L. Reid, in a letter to the Nort h Carol inar Ch risiian Advocate, says: The report of the committee on boundaries, transferring ail the state of North "Carolina now in the Virginia conference, to the North Carolina conference, Gates, Camden, Perquimans, Paskuotank, Chowan aud Crvrrituck. In these' are nine pastoral charges aud over 4,000 mem- ber. There are two stations, ;Eliza- ieth jCily and Eden ton.

' $ Since the war these two powerful denominations, north and south, have had fraternal relations, but all ffor!s to retnrn theiif organizations have failed. In each there has leen active ja so-called progressive element which j has urged leunibn, but it has been and is still in a jsmal! minority. At the recent General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, sou lib, at Memphis, the, question of reunion with the northern Methodist came up, but it was soon idi-covered that the great majority of the delegates, cler ical and lay, were strongly opposed to it. . Since that time iha southern Presbyterians have made a similar declaration. The 'organizations of these two churches in both sections arejurge and powerful, ahd it is probably that each .will prosper best end prove most efficient by continuing its present atoutuv. Atlanta Journal. The Fiendvin Jail. Greensboro,! Mayx28. Special Bob Madkins was arrested Saturday night at th'home of his mothers for assaulting a respectable white wom an near Burlington North Carolina several days ago. When ai rested Madkins denied the charge; but on being b-ought before Miss Phillip his victim, who promptly identified him, he brok down and confessed the crime. He Said that he knew all the time he would be hung, if caught', but he was willing to take the risk. On be ing brought to; Burlington a large crowd at once; assembled and the prisoner would j have been hnng be fore this, but for advice of Solicitor Parker of the district, who spoke to the crowd and Succeeded in quieting them; The prisoner was taken to Graham to jail and the Burlington military company guarded him last night. THE CRIME. Miss Mary Phillips, daughter of John Phillips,: of Carolina Cotton Mills, was assaulted about 8 o'clock Sunday moruirig, May 20s li, at Big falls bridge. ! She whs returning home from a visit when ar. unk now i; negro spraug from the roadside with pistol in hand and accomplished his helish purpose despite her screams and struggle. Miss Phillips started to walk from Burlington to her home in the sub urbs, and was followed by a negro m an, who as soon as he reached a favorable spot attempted to accom plish his purpose, but she threw him off by a superhuman effort and ran, but was soon caught and this time the negro accomplished. his purpose, after leaving his victim in the woods hy the road .v here she was afterwards found. i Miss Phillips had no difficulty in recognizing the negro as it was b oad day light Sunday when it oc- curred. It Was the Haci-r X From the Boston Budget. ,X While he was eujoyiirg his lunch as well as his guilty .-'GVuscietbe would permit, Israel. noticed that the sky wan becoming overcast.
