1 ' ,1 I, V. The MorningiStan . WILMINGTON, N V, : Fbiday Morning,- Mabch 0. 1888. MO RNING EDITION. THE LATEST NEWS. FROM ALL FABTS OF THE WORLD FIFTIETH CONGRESS, FIRST SESSION. Pension BUI Fautd In tn. Senate after Rejection of Proposed Amend mentsBill for P arenas, of General Sblelds' Sword Passed in tbe House I. . Br Telegraph to the Hornbur et&r.i SENATE. - Washington, March S.-Among the pe titions and memorials preaenteed and re f erred was one said to have over 102,000 signatures, from thirty-three States asd Territories, against the admission of Utah ' as a State, so long as its people are under the control of the Mormon priesthood. Amon the bills reported and placed on the calendar were the following: To provide for a joint celebration at the National Capital, by the sixteen Americui Republics, in honor of the Centennial of the parent Republic, the United States; To secure to Cherokee freedmen and others their proportions of certain proceeds of land. Senator Colquitt, ; who had announced . his purpose to speak tp-day on the Preri - dent's message, gave way to the pension bill. His speech will probably be made Monday. The pension bill was then taken up. the question still being upon the amendment of Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, adding the words "the infirmities of age." Mr. Mauderson replied to some of Mr. Vest's statements made last week, particu larly as to their being no Federal soldiers or Confederates either, in Michigan alms houses. He quoted from the report of the Commissioner of Pensions, showing that on October 15th last, there were in Michigah alms-houses 1SS ex-Union sol diers and 62 dependent relatives, and in the whole United8tates 21.851 soldiers and de dendents, besides 15,152 in National Sol diers' Homes, making a totaljof 37,008 ex soldiers and their dependents who were dependent i on charitable institutions. In contradiction of Mr. Vest's statement that 80 per cent, of the number of those enrolled during the war were either pen sioners or applicants ' for pensions, he showed that there were 867,424 invalid pensions granted: and 240,662 for windows, children or dependent relatives; in other words that there were (of pensioners and claimants) not over 24 per cent, of the whole number enlisted. After further speeches by Messrs. Haw ley, Hoar and Dawes, Mr. Wilson's amend ment was rejected.

Mr. Blair introduced his biil of tae - former sessions to grant pensions to all .soldiers who served three months in the army during the war of the rebellion. I& was referred to the Committee on Pen sions. Adjourned until Monday. The colloquy in the Senate yesterday, reported as between Senators Faulkner and Plumb on the subject of public buildings, was actually between Senators Daniel and - Plumb, The substitution of the names ' was - an inadvertence of the reporter. Mr. Plumb had been criticizing the ' supervising architect of the treasury -for delaying work upon public buildings and - changing the plans so as to involve greater expense. Mr. Daniel read a letter from Mr. Plumb, dated last October, addressed to the super vising architect, urging that the plan for the public building at Wichita, Kansas, be changed by adding another story, and sug . gesting that if to do this involved the omis sion of the heating apparatus from the 'estimates, he (Plumb) -, thought that without doubt this could be provided for ;"tS 4 i nexi session of Congress, air. , ii" al tead Otters from Repre- l twe Petf' ot Kansas, recommend- ' vRSii JLork 050,1 tne Public building at erDebeaBUfTM!nded iththe view to.

It was alleged as a reason for the proposi tion that the Swords belonged to the -estate and could not be dmaed,. but they could be sold as other prppettyC He did not be lieve that Congress could rightfully exer ciBe the power of appropriation in such a manner as this, and though he had a kind ly feeling towards the family , of General Bhields, ne was not prepared to vote con trary to what he considered his duty under his oath of office. : Messrs. Wheeler, of Alabama, Buckalew, of Pennsylvania, and other members pro nounced high eulogies upon Gen. Shields, and.advocated the passage of the bill which had a two-fold object to relieve the ne cessities of the Shields family and to se cure to the country the historical relics of the old hero. Two of the swords proposed to be purchased had been presented by the Legislatures of South Carolina and Illinois Mr. Tiilman regretted that there should be'any objection to the bill, and especially regretted that that objection should come from a representative of a Southern State He felt' a burning sense of indignation that any member ou this floor should pro pose that these- mementoes should be put up at auction. If they were put up at auction there were thousands of men in the South who would willingly buy them and deposit them in some museum, rather than have them hawked about and bought and kept as trophies by some rich million aire Referring to the admiration of the c.,ik n apnpml Shield's fcfaverv in the UVUiu awa - r m Mex can war, he stated tXat that admira tion had not been lesserd by the fact that Gen. Shields fought eainst the South in the unfortunate civli war. Speakina for South Carolma, Jie declared that her people bad been too sincere in their convictions of duty, as tbey eaw ir, to doubt the sincerity of General Shields' conviction to light on the side he thought right; and whenever men anywhere were ready to risk their lives for the sake of their convictions, they deserve the respect and charity of honest men, even ir they had been in the wroBg. Mr. Rayner, from the Committee on -Commerce, reported a bill to establish a postal telegraph. Mr. Blount said the subject of the bill was one over which the Committee on Poatofficea and Post Roads had jurisdiction ; and be reserved the right at the proper lime to raise the' question whether the Commit tee on Commerce bad jurisdiction over the subject of postal telegraphy. The bill was referred to the Committee of the Whole. After some time spent in discussing, without action, bills from the Public Lands Committee, and after passing a bill for al lotment of lands in severalty to the Chippe wa Indians, in Minnesota, the House ad journed WASHINGTON. A Bogus Circular Sent to Folmii(tri la (be South Government Vessel to Sail for Vennaela with the II e mtlnt of Ota. Para Tne reaanry Snrplne. Br Telegraph to the Moralo Star. Washxkgton, March 8 Mr. Jones, Chairman ot the Congressional Democratic Campaign Committee, says: A circular letter dated " Democratic Committee Rooms, Washington. February 1. 1888." andsigoed 'H. M. V. Judson, Secretary," has been cent to numbers of postmasters in the South, requesting them so procure and send to their Senators and Representatives lists of names, with a request that public documents and field, earden and flower seeds be sent to the persons named in such lists. Inquiry at the National Democratic Committte Rooms, and at the Congression al Campaign Committee rooms, shows that R. M. V. Judson is not becretary of any Democratic Committee in Washington. It is also ascertained that Senators and Re presentatives have sent to their constituents all the seeds and nearly all the documents allotted to them. The circular referred to implies that tbey have been derelict in this respect, and it has unnecessarily stirred up the people and annoyed Senators and Re presentatives. Mr. Jones says Judson is a myth, and he advises that no attention be paid to the circular described. Orders were to day issued to the com mandant of the Navy Turd at New York to have the United Slates steamer Pensacoa placed in readiness to sail for Venezuela with the remains of Gen. Paez by the 24th inst. The vessel will proceed direct to La Guayva,and then goto Aspin wall to receive the relief officers of the Omaha now on her way there from China. tkcretary Fairchild, in bis report sub mitted to Congress early in December, esti mated that the treasury surplus would reach $140,000,000 by the end of the pres ent flfccl year. It is now stated at the Treasury Department that, owing to the heavy receipts during the past few months, the estimate then submitted will prove to be too small and that the surplus at the end of June, 1888, will probably reach one hun dred and filty-five millions. GEOHGIA. Killed on tne Ball Atlanta Pronlbl tlonlete Cheap Kmtei for Imnml granta. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Atlanta. March 8 Train No. 8 on the Western & Atlantic Railroad, while round ing a curve near Marietta, Ga. , ran over a man named O'Neill and cut the top of his head off. killing his instantly. The Board of Aldermen to-day killed the measure for free books to public schools. The measure was passed through the Council by the vote of the anti-rrohibi tionists, but was opposed by the Prohibi tionists, Jbecause the books were to be pur chased with money received from whiskey licenses- The Prohibitionists carried their point in the Board of Aldermea Bomb, March 8 By the action of the Central Traffic Association in Chicago yes terday, the cheap rates Southward secured by the Inter-State Committee of the Society of Immigration and Development, from Southern passenger agents in New Orleans in Februarv. are established over the greater portion of the country. John T Graves, of Rome, chairman of the Inter State Committee, has just received an offi cial telegram from unmmissioner uanieis, of "the Central Traffic Association, announc ing the concurrence of the railroads repre sented in that Association in the rates estab lished by the Southern roads. As the result. on March 13th and 27th, aud April 10th and 25th. tickets will be on sale at all ata tions east of the Mississippi river to all Doints in the South, st one and one-hart cents per mile, or three cents for the round trip. Tickets will be good for thirty days, with the privilege of stopping for ten days at different places on the journey South ward. Thousands of letters are pouring in upon the Ioter'8tate Committee from the North and West, and it is evident that a vast tide of prospectors is coming Southward. Every progressive city in the South is taking steps to prepare for these visitors, snd ev erything points to the greatest immigration movement ever known in the South. Tne Consequence of Reelect.

Berlin, March 8, Official Bulletin, 9.20 P. M. Thereport of the Emperor 'a death proves to have been premature. The la test intelligence from the Palace is that he is stili alive though unconscious An official bulletin, issued at 9 o'clock this evening, announces that the Emperor lives and that on the whole his condition is more tranquil. The bulletin has reassured people who had been intensely excited by reports of his death, which had been pub lished in newspaper extras. . Bbmut, March 8. 9 20 P. M The Em peror fell into a swoon at 5 o'clock and re mained unconscious until 6 o'clock. He afterwards fell into a quiet sleep, which lasted till 7 o'clock. Wine and other liquid nourishment are administered to him occasionally. The following is the text of the imperial decree promulgated to-day declaring Prince William to be representative of the Emperor in State affairs. - "In consideration of the uncertain state of my health, which compels me temporarily to abstain from the transaction of affairs, and in view of the illness and prolonged absence of my son Frederick William. 1 charge your Royal Highness with all cases where 1 believe representation necessary to the current government business, specially signing orders, without special order being -4 requisite on every separate occasion. At noon all the members of the Imperial family, except the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, were in the room adjoin ing that occupied by the Emperor. At 18.25 Chaplain Koegelgave the last sacra ment to the Emperor. The Emperor was occasionally delirious before noon; at 5.80 the physicians in at tendance upon the Emperor published an assurance that his somnolent condition is not the result of injection of morphia. This confirmed the belief that the crisis is imminent. London. March 9. At 12.20 a, m. no official report of the death of Emperor Wil liam had reached the German Embassy. No bulletins were posted at the German Em -bassy this evening. Count Von Hi'zfeldt professed to have received no official infor mation of the death of the Emperor.

Si Contt by the Railroad company Tne aitnatlon TJnenanced. iir Telegraph to the Mornuu Star, Chicago. March 8 This morning tbe right between the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy R. R. and its striking engineers and firemen, was changed from tbe lines of the road and the strikers' headquarttrs at the Grand Pacific, to the U. 8. Court At an early hour a big petition was filed in the U 8. Court by the counsel for the railroad It set forth the history of the strike with the grievances of the road, aad wound up by praying an injunction against Chief Arthur and the Eagineers Brother hood, as well as an order on tbe Wabash road compelling it to handle Burlington freight in the discharge of its duty as a common carrier. Hearing upon tbe application is set for to-morrow at 2 p. m. The Burlington road makes Charles E. Beers set in the capacity of chief com plainant in the case, although Ibeeuifis the work of the company. Beers is a big lumber merchant, aad as his business has been tied-up since the strike began, he gladly threw bis lot with the C. B & O , in hope of obtaining some relief for him self. There was considerable surprise amoog the strikers and their chiefs when be news of this latent move of the rod was broken to them, bargent said an tin-junction, ti granted, would have no t fleet on tbe suite, as far as the eogtneerj and firemen are concerned. "Chief Ar tour," he said, "does not order strikes. He does not order the men to oa t work. and has no power to do so. Tbe con stitution of the Brotherhood of En gineers does not give him any such power. An injunction sgainst them, tnereiore, to restrain mm rrom "or dering men to disobey orders of the rod employing them, would cut no figure what ever." Chief Arthur could not be seen, but the press committee authorized to speak for him, said. "An injunction against Arthur would not be worth the paper it is printed on Simply because be does not order men to quit work. An injunction sgainst tbe Brotherhood is equally worthless, becaus it is not an incorporated body. If the en gineers on the Wabash do not want to han dle Burlington freight, no Court can make them do it." The position that the engineers as a body will take in any event will be a very sim -pie one. Whether they appear in Court to morrow by counsel at all. has not yet been decided, for as a matter or fact they are. or appear to be, quite indifferent as to whetb er the Uourt will, or will not issue the or der prayed for. Tbey are determined, and so expressed themselves to-day, lu a score of Instances, to refuse to handle a train on any road that aids "Q." and no law, they claim, can compel a man to work when he is not willing to. On the other band tbe difficulties of the Wabash line are steadily on tbe Increase. Burlington appears to ba determined to draw that road into the vortex along with itself, and it is nearly sure to do to. If the Court to morrow grants an order re quiring the Wabath its agents, officers, and employes to perform its duties sb a public carrier, as respects traffic with tbe Burlington, then a general tie-up of tbe Wabash Road must follow. The engineers wil, of course, refuse to handle Burling ton cars, and if receiver McNulla wants to save himself from punishment for con tempt of Court, and his road from heavy damages, be will be obliged to discharge bis engineers and hire ones that will do the work The moment the first man is dis charged a strike will follow. This is Chief Arthur's assurance to his men posi lively, made yesterday. The Burlington Company has as yet taken no action in regard to the other roads, which have refused to handle their freight, but Manager Stone says if the proccedincs against the Wabash do not have the desired effect; that similar sction Will doubtless be brought to bear on them. The Lake Shore Road has been receiving freight from Burlington to-day, without protest from their engineers . The officials of that road say they will continue to handle freight transferred .to them Most of the Eastern roads have signified their willingness to do the same, but with the exception of the Union Pacific all the Western roads remain firm in their refusal to touch a Turlington car. VIRGINIA. A Gibs of Counterfeiters Arrested In Norfolk. By Telegraph to the Morning Star Nobtolx, March 8. The police of this city succeeded to-day in capturing a gang of five Italian counterfeiters, named Joseph Lafflori, Pietro Dauorifoi, George Cata boni.

It was only temporary, as buyers soon appeared and began Duymg dsck wuu more vig" than they had previously sold, and the re sult was a sharp rally that carried puces a shade above the opening.

Price & Co-'s cotton circular says: Tbe market to-day has thown more steadiness than at any time since tbe com meccement of the recent decline. Early Liverpool advices Indicated considerable strength on the part cf the foreign market, and this led to an advance of 78 points here at the opening. About 11 o clock ru mors came of tbe death of Emperor Wil liam, and a temporary depression followed, owing to the nervousness of some weak holders of loug cotton. It was seen how ever that the possible effect of this event bad been preety well discounted yesterday and prices speedily improved, the close being firm at the highest point of the day, and with but very little cotton offering for sale, except at constantly advancing figures. The general impression is that the liquida tion of the Atlanta operator, which caused tbe break, has been fully accomplished. No further failures are anticipated, and the atmosphere seems pretty well cleared by the storm. Port rtceeipts are full, but features of the statistical position have been ignored for tbe past few dsys, and will be without effect until the market gets on a more stable basis. A noteworthy feature of recent buying has been the num ber of certificates absorbed for spinners' account. Inquiry among brokers reveals the fact that spinners, both in New Eng land and the South, have taken advantage of the recent slump to protect themselves against a potsibln output of goods and re quirements of their consumption by large purchases of contracts here This is ex ceptional, and betrays tbe fact that tbey have not been able to contract for actual cotton in tbe South as usual on the basis of existing prices in New York.
