OUTLINES.
A number of bills were introduced in
the Senate yesterday, among which was
one making an appropriation for the
erection of a statue in Washington to
James Madison; Mr. Butler then de
livered a lengthy speech in favor of his
bill to provide for the emigration of
persons of color from the United States,
and was briefly replied to by Messrs.
Hoar and Blair in opposition thereto;
the bill went over without action; the
credentials of the Montana Senators
were presented and referred; in tlie
House there was a long and interesting
debate relative to the location of the
World s Fair in 1892. after which the
resolution reported by Mr. Cannon for
that reported by Mr. McKinley. was re
jected by a close vote; a motion to re
consider was made, and pending a mo
tion to lav that on the table the
House adjourned. Four young
negTO girls, of the Karoo tribe, from
Sierra Leone, arrived at New York
yesterday, on their way to Nashville.
Tenn.. where they are to receive an edu
cation to fit them for missionary work
in their native land. Chicago's
mortality report shows a large increase
in the number of deaths from influenza,
while in New York there is a very
marked decrease. The Supreme
Court of the State has granted a new
trial to Father Boyle, the Catholic
priest convicte i of rape. A ver
dict of 13.000 damages has been ren
dered in Danville. Va.. against the
Richmond & Danville Railroad, for
damages sustained by a cattle dealer
while travelling on a freight train.
A cigar manufacturer of New York
committed suicide yesterday at
Thomasvilie. Gj.. by shooting him
self; business depression the cause.
The funeral of Walker Blaine will
tio place on Saturday, at 11 o'clock,
from the Church of the Covenant, in
Washington. The Commercial
Teiegram Company, of New York, has
been sold out by the sheriff, and it is
understood that the Postal Telegram
Company was the purchaser. A
great flood prevails in the Little Wabash
river, in Illinois; hundreds of people
have been compelled to abandon their
homes, and the farmers have suffered
severely; it is expected that the waters
will irise still higher, in which event
great suffering would result.
New York markets: Money easy,
ciosing offered at :l&t per cent.; cotton

middling Orleans 104 cents; south

The Czar of Russia is said to be
showing a weakening of brain. The
nihilists have about scared all the
wits he had out of him.
It is stated that the death of the
iatc W. D. Kelley was hastened if
not caused by excessive use of to
bacco, to which for many years he
was a great slave.
Senator Brown's wealth is est -mited
at 2,000,000. He is richer
than any editor in Georgia, although
the newspapers down there are pretty
well supplied with quoins.
The indications from Cape Cod
point to a bountiful cranberry crop.
In view of the proposed tariff duty
on beans the Boston man may 6nd
some consolation in this.
Norwegians are said to be the
longest lived people in the world.
What strange beings some mortals
are. We could never see any good
reason why a man should want to
live long in Norway, anyway.
Chauncey M. Depew says that New
York is the only American city whose
name is familiar to Europeans, and
yet New York has only one Chaun
cey M. Depew. With two or three of
'em her fame would be world-wide.
The Patent Office at Washington
is cramped for room. When Con
gress appropriates money for the
World's Fair it should locate it at
Washington, make it permanent, and
make the display part of the Patent
iOrhce an annex to it.
The Texas editors are bragging
about a woman down there who gave
brrth to four boy babies at one time.
In a State which already gives a
Democratic majority of about 100,
000 we don't see any necessity for
anything of this kind.
A twelve year old New York boy
spent the only five dollars he had to
buy a ticket for Washington to see
the President, when he could have
gone into a dime show and seen lots
of curiosities. This boy does not
show the sagacity that augurs future
success in life.

VOL. XLV.-NO. 98.
The Republican bosses, don't be
lieve in the colored brothers' get
ting any big plums in- the way of
oraces. The office of recorder of
deeds for the District of Columbia
has been held for some years by
colored men. When Senator Ingalls
found that this office paid the last
incumbent, Trotter, who resigned at
the invitation of Mr. Harrison, at the
rate of $13,000 a year, he at once
decided to introduce a bill making it
a salaried office. Thirteen thousand
dollars a year is pretty good pay, it
is true, for light work, especially,
Mr. Ingalls thinks, when the man
who gets it has a dark skin.
Head chopper Clarkson who has
been performing the decapitating
acts for Mr. Wanamaker, has had
about enough of that kind of work,
and is not thirsting for some Republi
can gore. It is reported that Gen.
Alger and other Republicans who
have axes to grind are about to buy
the Chicago Times, and make Clark
son carver-in-chief of it. Clarkson is
not in full accord with the Harrison
crowd.
Cyclones in Missouri and Illinois,
ten or twelve inches of snow in Kan
sas and elsewhere out there, rose
liids in New England, dandelions in
Jew Jersey, peach blooms in Dela
vare, green apple's, ripe strawberries
and tomatoes in North Carolina, all
about the same time will give the
plodding European some idea of the
resources of our native American cli
mate. A young New Yorker visiting
Washington was so much pleased
with Washington's Monument that
he tried to steal it, but as he found it
too big to pocket he knocked a
chunk off and pocketed that. He
was arrested and the chunk cost him
twenty dollars. If he had pocketed
the whole monument it would have
broke him. His admiration for that
monument is not as great as it was.
King Leopold of Belgium, who is
the manager of the Congo Free State,
looks with favor on the settlement in
that country of American negroes.
Perhaps Senators Morgan and But
ler, while they are working up this
emigration business and asking Uncle
Sam to contribute five millions or
more to it, might get Leopold to
chip in a little.
The Lead Trust with a capital
of $90,000,000 is said to be the boss
trust of this country. If Uncle Sam
should have any unpleasantness with
any other nation and wanted to do
some gunning, with the lead stock
cornered he'll probably find that a
very expensive article.
Senator Ingalls having been ac
cused of sharply criticising the Presi
dent says he never said it, but that
he is Mr. Harrison's friend and will
stick to him like the grip,or words to
that effect. Now it is in order for
Harrison to pray to be saved from
his friends.
OUR NLW DRESS.
Lumberton Robesonian.
No greater improvement, in our
opinion, has been made in a newspaper
in many years than has been the result
in the Wilmington Star's new dress.

was held yesterday afternoon in the
Mayor's office at the City Hall.
The Committee on Fire Depart

The adjourned meeting of stock
holders of the Wilmington Seacoast
Railroad Company will be held at 11

There was a gale of wind from
the west yesterday which blew at times
violently, filling the air with bits of
paper, dust and lots of things to the an
noyance of people who were compelled
to be out of doors during the day.
As the new public building ap
proaches nearer completion it appears
much larger than was indicated would
be its size when the foundations were
laid. It will be quite an imposing struc
ture, and when finished will be a credit
to the city.
There was some curious weather
night before last. At one time it was
perfectly clear and the stars were twink
ling in the heavens, and soon after dark
banks of clouds, arose and there were
smart showers, together with heavy
gusts of wind that made the windows
rattle in good earnest.
Mrs. F. A. Muse, alto, and Mrs.
W. Thorburn, soprano, are both sick and
confined to the house, so that neither of
them could participate in the musical
part of the services connected with the
obsequies of the late Mr. James Edgar
Scarborough at the First Baptist Church
yesterday afternoon.
Rev. R. E. Peele, pastor of
Brooklyn Baptist Church, has removed
from Red Cross street, where he has re

much more convenient dwelling on the
northeast corner of Sixth and Bladen
streets, where he will be glad at any time
to meet all those who may desire to call
upon him.
A Rough. Passage.
The steamer Gulf Stream, which ar
rived here from New York on Wednes-
day evening, had an unusually rough
passage. She encountered heavy south
erly winds until she was off Cape Look
out, when she was struck by a strong
northeasterly gale, accompanied by
heavy rains, a dense fog and high seas,
which continued until she reached the
bar at the mouth of the. river. The fog
was so dense when the steamer arrived
off the bar at 7 o'clock, Tuesday even
ing, that she was obliged to anchor,
where she remained until 11 o'clock on
Wednesday forenoon, when it lifted
enough for her to get under" way again
and enter the river and come up to the
city.
Myra Goodwin To-M"ih.t.
The attraction at the Opera House to
night will be E. E. Kidder's comedy-
drama entitled "Sis," with Myra Good
win in the principal role. Of the play
and Miss Goodwin the Boston Post re
cently said :
Bv Mvra Goodwin's excellent com
pany Edward E. Kidder's comedy-drama
"Sis" was presented for the first time at
the Bijou Theatre last evening. There
is nothing m it anywhere to onena tne
most delicate" sense of humor and pro
priety, and the fun is of a rollicking, in
nocent kind. Miss Goodwin, the tal
ented young soubrette, acts, sings and
dances superbly, and she has a very
strong support.
City Court.
There was a small docket for the
Mayor's consideration yesterday morn
ing, as the following will show.
Hannah Sneed, colored, disorderly
conduct; not guilty and case dismissed
the cost of the prosecutrix, Millie
Jenkins, who was sent to jail for thirty
days. Josh. Green, colored false pre
tense; not guilty and case dismissed.
Two delinauent tax-payers settled for
their taxes and were discharged, and
this ended the court for the day.
MORNING
N. C, FRIDAY, JANUARY 17, 1890.
DISTINGUISHED VISITORS.
Cardinal Gibbons and Dr. O'Connell, Hec
tor of tiie American College at Borne.
Cardinal Gibbons, accompanied ' . by
Dr. O'Connell, rector of the American
College at Rome, arrived in the city at
11.10 yesterday forenoon from Savannah
and are the guests while here of Col. F,
W. Kerchner. The Cardinal had been
to Charleston, S. C, to lay the corner
stone of the new Cathedral, and thence
went to Savannah for a brief visit. The
arrival of these distinguished prelates of
the Roman Catholic Church has no
special significance, b ut "may be con
sidered more in the light of a social call
than anything else.
Cardinal Gibbons was the first Bishop
of North Carolina, and for a num
ber of years he resided in this
city, when he became warmly attached
to our people. Hence he avails himself
of every possible opportunity of stopping
here and meeting our people, when his
official duties will permit.
This evening an informal reception
will be given at the residence of Col. F.W,
Kerchner, and the Cardinal and Dr.
O'Connell will be. pleased to see. their
friends from eight to ten o'clock. They
will leave for Baltimore on the late train
to-night.
KILLED WHILE GUNNING.
A Fatal Accident in Columbus County.
Mr. Millard Cook, of Whiteville, Co
lumbus county, accidentally shot and
killed himself while gunning yester
day near Whiteville. The only particu
lars of the sad occurrence learned are
that Mr. Cook was crossing a ditch,
when he fell and the gun he was carry
ing was discharged, the load of shot en
tering his .body and causing instant
death. Mr. Cook was hunting in com
pany with a member of the firm of Gil
liam & Gardes, of New York, by
whom he was employed as a travelling
salesman. He was a young man about
thirty years of age, son of a prominent
citizen of Columbus, and son-in-law of
Mr. Martin Schulken, of Vineland, in
the same county. He was a great
favorite with all who knew him and his
untimely death will be deeply deplored.
A Busy Place.
That there is a larger amount of busi
ness than usual now being done by the
various railroads leading into this city,
and especially by the Atlantic Coast
Line, is manifested by the great number
of freight cars to be seen on the net
work of tracks at their freight ware
houses on Nutt street. Every available
piece of track seems to be utilized for
the use of cars, and the shifting engines
are busily employed throughout the en
tire working day and often late inm the
night in moving them to one ptynt or
another for making up trains for depar
ture, North or South, or in moving
them where they can be unloaded ex
peditiously. ' It is a busy place and the
amount of work performed there is of
vast magnitude.
Improvements.
Our friends on Fourth street, north of
the railroad bridge, are becoming quite
aristocratic and possessed with the spirit
of improvement which obtains in other
parts of the city. There has not been a
foot of brick sidewalk worthy of the
name north of Hanover street, but now
the brick have been hauled with which
to pave the walk on the east side of
Fourth street from the bridge to Bruns
wick street; so that that much-travelled
thoroughfare will soon be in first-rate
condition for the accommodatioa of the
people of that part of the city.
An Old Paper.
In looking over some old papers be
longing to the estate of his father-in-law,
the late Duncan Murchison, Mr.
Geo. W. Williams, of this city, found a
copy of the Wilson County Gazette, pub
lished at Kingston, New York, It is no
doubt, an original copy, and for this rea
son is valuable. The principal feature
Is an account of the funeral services and
burial of George Washington at Mount
Vernon.
New Trial Granted.
A special dispatch to the Star from
Raleigh, says that the Supreme Court
yesterday afternoon rendered a decision
in the case of the State vs. Boyle, the
ex-priest tried and convicted of rape at
Raleigh, ordering a new trial. The
opinion was. delivered by Chief Justice
Merrinaon.
RIVER AND "MARINE.
The water in the Cape Fear and Black
rivers is at a low stage, but the steamers
manage to get through and make regu
lar trips.
The British schooner Molega, 147
tons, bound to Cape Haytien, Hayti,

fiom New York, arrived here yesterday

The Board of Directors was author
ized to go forward in rebuilding that
portion of the works recently destroyed
by fire and in improving the plant in
such ways as they may deem necessary
and expedient.
THE WEATHER.
Storm
Warning and Cold
Wave Gales
on the Coast.
The cautionary signal for a northwest
storm was displayed at the Signal station
here yesterday forenoon, in compliance
with orders from the Chief Signal Officer
at Washington. The cold wave signa
was. also ordered up, with the notification
that "the temperature will fall to about
36 by 8 a. m. January 17th
A light gale of about 25 miles an hour
came about noon,and continued with di
minishing force until evening, when the
cold wave following the storm put in an
appearance, and the mercury under its
influence went steadily downwards,' giv
ing every assurance that the prediction
of the Weather Bureau would be veri
fied this morning. Indications last night,
however, were that warmer weather
might be expected to-day.
Heavy gales were reported from coast
stations north of Wilmington yesterday,
Yesterday Morning's Fire.
The fire alarm was sounded from box
31 at about half-past 5 o'clock yesterday
morning, caused by the discovery that
the stable of Mr. Charles Schulken, just
in rear of his store, on the corner of
Fourth and Nixon streets, was on fire.
The department turned out promptly,
but were unable to save the building,
which together with a small amount of
feed was destroyed. The loss on the
stable amounted to about $50, upon
which there was no insurance. The loss
on feed was very small.
