The Dependent Pension bill was con
sidered" in the Senate yesterday, when
an interesting debate took place relative
to proposed amendments, which would
make the appropriations reach five
hundred million dollars; there were
voted down and the bill passed;
in the House several bills were passed
relative to United States Courts, after
which the Army Appropriation bill was
considered and passed. The Re
publican tariff bill is completed, and the
minority will be allowed ten days to
offer amendments and prepare their
views upon the bill and such amend
ments as may be made before the bill is
reported to the House; Chairman Mc-
Kinley says the bill will effect a reduc
tion of $45,000,000-10 the revenue. , -

A fellow dressed in overalls walked
into a Boston insurance office the
other day, and proceeded deliberate
ly to unscrew a twenty dollar mirror
from the wall in the presence of a
half dozen employes and walk off
with it, and they never suspected
that he was a thief until the boss
came in and asked why the mirror
had been taken down. They sup
posed the man in overalls had been
sent to take it down and brush it up.
That fellow had cheek enough to
supply a first-class advocate of a
high protective tariff.

The New York Tribune makes the
unnecessary announcement that the

SUNDAY MORNING'S FIRE.
A Dwelling on South Second Street Burn
edThe Loss Covered by Insurance.
A two-story frtrme building on South
Second street, fjwned by heirs of the
late S. P. Gause, iwas partially destroyed
by fire Sunday morning last. The fire
broke out on the roof of the building,
and is supposed o have been caused by
sparks from the chimney. The engines,
hose reels and trucks were promptly on
the ground, but the water supply was
not su fncient to . enable the pipemen
to reach the ,.fire, and recourse
was had to an old cistern on Third
street and the river. The fire burned
very slowly, giving ample time for the
removal of the furniturae, all of which
was saved; but the delay caused by the
failure of the water supply from the hy
drants resulted in- the almost total de
struction of the building.
There was insurance for $1,000 on the
house.fand for $200 on the furniture, in
the Liverpool, London & Globe, repre
sented by Messrs. Smith & Boatwright,
which will cover the loss.
Although there was a failure of the
water supply, the following seems to be
about a fair statement of the whole
matter:
In order to place hydrants in the mill
yard of Messrs. Parsley & Wiggins, it
became necessary to cut off the water
from the city. The proper authorities
were notified that this would be done
Sunday forenoon, and that probably
three hours would be required for the
work to be done. Durinsr this time it
had been arranged with the Creo
sote Company to use their steam
pump on the mains, and this,
it was thought, would supply
water for ordinary domestic purposes.
though it could not be fully relied on in
case of fire.
It may be proper to say that the wa
ter was really cut off from the city only
an hour and twenty minutes in conse
quence of the necessary work at the mill
of Messrs. Parsley & Wiggins; and that
notwithstanding the disadvantages
under which the Water Works Compa
ny labored, they had a pressure of eighty
pounds on the mains in thirty minutes
after the alarm of fire was turned in. It
was unfortunate, of course, but it was
one of those unexpected things that will
happen occasionally, and it seems that
the Water Works people did all that it
was possible for them to do in a precau
tionary way.
There is a way, however, to avoid the
possibility of any failure of the water
supply hereafter, and that is by the
erection of a stand-pipe at some high
point near the centre of the city.
CAPE FEAR AND YADKIN VALLEY.
Increase of Traffic Through the "Wilming
ton Extension The Road in Excellent
Condition and Under Good Management.
The New York steamer's are bringing
increased quantities of freight for ship
ment over the C. F. & Y, V. rail
road to merchants in the Western part
of the State, and there is every indica
tion that this traffic will soon grow to
large proportions.
The Greensboro Workman, speaking
of the handsome manner in which the
interests of this line of road have grown
within al few short years, says: "The
facts of its history are of much interest,
especially at the time when the road has
opened from Wilmington to Mount
Airy, a distance of 250 miles. We
learn from President Gray that the
maximum grade between Fayetteville
and Wilmington is only forty feet per
mile; that between the two places the
average curvature is only five per cent.
of the whole distance, which makes the
road almost a straight line, and that the
road bed will in a short while justify
with safety a speed of forty miles per
hour.
"In addition to this, the value of the
stock of the company as an investment
is shown in the fact that the bonds of
the company to the amount of $850,000
have iust been sold in the Northern mar
kets at par with accrued interest. These
facts show that the management of the
affairs of the company has been con
ducted in first class style of caution and
skill.
THE TRUCK MARKET.
New York Prices for Southern Products.
G. S. Palmer, Produce Commission
Merchant, New York, reports prices as
follows:
The week closes with clear and colder
weather and every encouragement to
anticipate a brisk trade for the coming
Easter week, especially eggs, which
closed firm at 14 to 15 cents; duck 28
cents; geese 60 cents. Receipts of North
Carolina green truck have increased; as
paragus rapidly declining, prime 40 to
60 cents; culls 25 cents. Cabbage is. in
more liberal supply and most of it, ex
cept from Florida, is running small and
heads are loose and selling Irom 50
to $3 per crate. As there will be but
little competition with the Carolina
crop, it will be to the shippers' interest
to hold their cabbage back until it fully
matures. Strawberries in very hgnt sup
ply and demand good; selling from 20 to
50 cents per quart, as to quality, and out
look especially favorable for next week.
Dried fruits have further advanced, es

to 7 cents; other grades selling 10 to 12
cents; cherries 12 cents; huckleberries
