Vance made several attempts to secure a recnicuon ui idics uu irun pruuucis, but all of the proposed amendments were defeated by a strict party vote; other propositions for reduction of rates met with a similar fate; the con ference reports on the sundry civil ap propriation bill and the fortification bill were presented, and a substitute lor the House election bill was iv pored; the general deficiency bill was considered in the House. The Senate committee on priv ileges and elections are considering the election bill in special meeting; it is still held in confidence, but it is stated that the principles of the bill and its practi cal workings are not disturbed. The political situation in Central Amer ica is very unsettled; the leader of the revolt against Barillas, in Guatemala, lias been routed by the Guatemalan troops; the Vice President of San Sal vador has organized a government in opposition' to that of Ezeta, and is aided hy one of the most important men ot i ho Republic; Ezeta has shot many im portant personages in connection with ji.as" movement, The first elec tion ever held in the Indian Territory i -ainc oil Wednesday, and resulted in a Democratic victory by a small majority; l. tii parties fought hard for supremacy. Murray Hall, an elegant summer ii.'tei at Pablo Beach. Florida, was de stroyed by fire early yesterday morning; the plant was valued at $223,000, upon which there was insurance of only :?i,ti00; there were fifty guests in the hotel, all of whom escaped in good or der with their effects. The Re publicans will have a majority in both houses of the Legislature of Oklahoma Territory. The father of the elec trical execution law claims that Kemm- ier's taking-oil was a partect success, that lie never knew what happened to j;i:r,, and that he died absolutely with- tmi pain. Charleston received the first bale of new cotton yesterday from Barnweli county. A negro boy, v. h' .had stolen two horses in Opelika, Alabama, yesterday killed a merchant who was trying to arrest him. W- J- Northern, of Hancock county, has been nominated for Governor of Georgia by the State Democratic Convention; a full Stale ticket was also selected. An election was held in Tennessee yes terday, which resulted generally in the success of the Democrats: for the first time since the war the Demo- rrauo ticket was elected in Chattanoo ga, and there is great rejoicing. New York markets: Money 49 per rent., closing offered at 4 per cent.; r.ottou firm; middling uplands 12c; mid-Ming- Orleans 11 7-16c; southern flour firm; wheat weaker, with free ru-iiers. and moderately active; No. 2 .e.i UH0iUiic at elevator; corn fairly active, unsettled and lower; No. 2, S-(jA5fiJ-.c at elevator. 3'oss Reed thinks that Secretary iilaine inspired that X. M. C. article which appeared some time ago, and that (Jail Hamilton wrote it. Johnny Davenport was a topic of discussion in the Senate yesterday. This shows that Senators can make loner speeches sometimes on small subjects. That newspaper man who- fainted and flopped over at Kemmler's exe cution, wasn't well adapted to his business. A well equipped reporter would have wound his nerve up and turned the set screw before he went in there. Mrs. Elizabeth Sands, who died m Baltimore last Sunday aged 101, is said never to have erot 'out of humor, which will probably account for the sands of life running so long with her. Good humor is a splendid recipe for longevity. The Winston Republican wants to knoW when a man like Brower foists himself upon the party by disrepu table methods, what is to be done about it. Why give him the grand bounce and do the decent thing by voting for Baldy Williams. True, very true, Mr. Plumb, this is a very good time to begin a reduc tion of tariff duties, but the Senators who wear the protected manufactur ers collars don't seem to see it in that light. They think it is a very good time to do nothing of the kind. Count Tolstoi is even more ofjja crank than Bore Blair. He has nine children, and sometime ago he pro posed to sell off all his property, give me proceeds to the poor, ana let nis 'me children hustle tor tnemseives. He would have done it if it hadn't been for his wif who couldn't see any sense in that kind of idiocy. 1 HE VOL. XLVI.--NO. 118. Mr. Grosvenor, Republican; of unio, didn t become violent like that other eminent Republican, Ml Stru- oie OI Aowa, but he rapped Autocrat wttu uvcr me KnucKs Wednesday for keeping back bills that ought to come before the House. The Auto crat had been sitting on one of his bills for twenty-one days. If all the fellows who are kicking against Reed got together and pooled their issues they could make it lively for the boss. The Philadelphia Ledger mentions the death of a citizen of Reading, in Pennsylvania, at the age of 84 years who in 63 years never failed to vote at an election. This man showed that he properly appreciated citizen ship, and the duty of a citizen, and set a good example to thousands who fail to vote and then take it out in grumbling if the men they don't want are elected. A Farmer's Alliance in Kansas has addressed a formal appeal to one of the Judges to delay proceedings in foreclosure of mortgages, because of the failure of crops and the stringen cy of money matters. It is rough on the farmers who are in the hands and at the mercy of the money lend ers, but where they find authority for a -Judge to take the action asked for, does not appear. The Philadelphia News, a Repub lican organ, remarks that "if Harri son, and Blaine, and McKinley, and Reed would please the Democratic papers they should cut each other's political throats." Well, verily they should, and confer at the same time an everlasting benefit upqn their anx ious, patient and long suffering country. The Philadelphia Record gently re minds Blair that his previous ques tion gag was entirely too previous. If there be any probability of its adoption, it was not previous enough. It should have been intro duced before the old crank bored the Senate and the country for six or seven weeks with his educational bill. It is said that the postoffice in Washington is so overrun with cir culars, papers, etc., from pension claim agents that it takes about four days to get a letter from that city to Baltimore, because the clerks are unable to handle the mass of matter that is daily dumped n upon them. The Prohibitionists of Pennsyl vania who have 30,000 votes have decided not to put a ticket in the field, because they do not wish to in jure the chances of Pattison, the Democratic nominee. The revolt against the Quay gang in that State seems $o be spreading. f -A S ampson county man has invent ed a dpugh kneader, which he says was vefy much needed. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

One of the unused city gas-lamps, at the foot of Dock street, has been leak ing gas at a powerful rate for sometime past, much to the annoyance of people in the neighborhood. Yesterday after noon a small boy climbed the lamp-post and stuck a lighted match to the leak, when a blaze about two feet high sprung up. The boy tried to extinguish the flame with mud and dirt, but gave up the task after repeated trials. A police officer then came along and tried his hand, but finding it to be too difficult a task, telephoned the superintendent at the Gas Works to fix it. Killed on the Bail. Mr. Frank Jones, living at Farmer's Turnout, Brunswick county, was killed Wednesday last by the out-going train on the Wilmington Columbia or Augus ta Railroad, between Brinkley's and Farmer's Turnout. Mr. Jones was asleep on the track and the engine struck his head, killing him instantly. The- par- I ticuiars learned so far in regard to the I affair are meagre. Weather Forecasts.

C, FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 1890. LOCAL DOTS. Items of Interest Gathered. Here and There and Briefly Noted. Every district in the cotton belt reported rain yesterday; but it was mod erate in amount. Mr. W. M. Parsley, general traveling agent of the Georgia Midland and Gulf Railroad, is in the cjty on a visit to his family and friends. The steamer Cape Fear, from Fayetteville yesterday, brought a large number of colored excursionists from Ehzabethtown, to spend the day in the city. Veterans taking part in the parade this afternoon can procure badges at Heinsbergers' bookstore. The tare to the Encampment and return will be 25 cents. The Eighteenth Regiment sur vivors will rendezvouz at Switchback Station, Ocean View Beach, to-day, at 4 o'clock p. m., and will thence proceed to Wrightsville depot and join the Veterans Parade to Camp Latimer. The Confederate Veterans will assemble at the Orton at half-past four o'clock this afternoon, form in line and march to the Front Street depot, where they will take the five o'clock tram on the Seacoast railroad for the Encamp ment. REV. DR. HOGE. His Condition Still Critical but His Friends More Hopeful. Telegrams were received here yester day from Saratoga which gave much en couragement to the many anxious friends of Rev. Dr. Hoge. The first dispatch received at 10 o'clock reported Dr. Hoge a shade better; at 12 o'clock noon, another aispatcn was received, stating that a consultation had been held with Dr. Grant, and that the patient's condition was more hopeful. The last report received at 7.25 p. m., stated that the improvement was sustained, but that typhoid symptoms were fully developed. His condition was still criti cal, but his attendants were decidedly more hopeful. Dr. Moses Hoge. of Richmond, had arrived at Saratoga. The telegrams were sent by Mr. James Sprunt to friends in this city. A Delightful Concert. The Lumberton Band came up to the city last night, and gave a concert in the City Hall Park, which was enjoyed by a large number of ladies and gentlemen. The band is composed of the best young men of Lumberton, .and reflects Jcredit on the town as well as the Second Reg iment, of which they are members. The pieces played showed the utmost good taste, and the perfect harmony through out the entire performance excited the admiration of all, and loud and enthu siastic applause greeted the performers after every selection. It was a pleasant occasion and the sweet music will ever be remembered by the people of Wil mington. After the performance Mr. M. P. Tay lor, Jr.. drum-major of the Second Reg iment, drilled the band on the lawn and the precision with which they went through the different movements was highly creditable and showed thorough training Below we publish the programme: 1. "Death or Victory;" March. 2. "Crown or Victory;" Overture. 3. Cornet Solo. 4. 5. "Days Gone By." Trombone Solo. ''Razzle Dazzle;" Medley. 6. 7. 8. 'Little Fisher Maid." 'The Devil's Own." Mr. Sim Schloss played with the band last night, and as usual reflected much credit on himself. Rewards for Escaped Convicts. Col. Moore, Solicitor of the Criminal Court, interviewed Gov. Fowle yester day, relative to two escaped convicts who are supposed to be lurking in and around Wilmington, and who are thought to be connected with the nu merous crimes recently committed on the highways leading to the city. The escaped convicts are Henry Crews, sent up for twenty years from the Criminal Court for arson of an outbuilding, and Anderson, convicted of. larceny, and sentenced to imprisonment for five years in the penitentiary. For the arrest of the former the Governor will otter a reward of $200, and for the latter $100. The Governor will advertise, offering the above rewards, as soon as he reach es Raleigh Excursion From Southport The Passport brought a gay party of ladies and gentlemen from Southport on the excursion given, by the Cape Fear Silver Cornet Band of that place. 1 hey scent the day in a visit to the Encamp ment at Wrightsville, returned to the city in the afternoon and embarked on the Passport for home at 5 o'clock in the awnino- There were thirteen in the " - band, as follows: Samuel Drew, leader. and Messrs. Jesse Weeks, Kob weeics, C. Holden, H. Phelps, Jeff Wescott, Al bert Dosher. W. S. Dosher, Rob Davis, Price Furpless, J. N. Daniels, John Hol den and Fred Harper ANNUAL ENCAMPMENT., THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE GUARD. Threatening Weather Does Not Inter fere With Camp DutiesGovernor Fowle' s Arrival and Reception A Grand Review of the Troops Battery Practice. The heavens looked rather threaten- ng to the boys in Camp Latimer yes terday morning, and many of them pre dicted that it would rain too hard either for drill or for a run outside of the grounds. They were mistaken, how ever, in their predictions, for while it did not rain enough to interfere with their military duties, the sun was ob scured by clouds the principal part of the day, so that the various exercises were carried through in accordance with general orders, with but little fatigue and discomfort to the men. There was generally a good attendance at the drill, and the men entered into the spirit of the work cheerfully and with a" manifest desire to excel, A notable feature of the present en campment is its freedom from the great complaint of absenteeism, which has been a very serious obstacle to the suc cess of previous efforts. It has seemed, in too many instances, the sole idea and de sire of some ofthe soldiers was to get out of camp and keep out as much as possi ble, with but little regard for the duties expected of them. Of course soldiers ike to go out of camp they wouldn't be good soldiers if they didn't and it is right that they should have as much lib erty, as they enjoy, compatible with their military duties; but the latter should re ceive the first consideration every time. At about 10 o'clock yesterday morn- ing Governor rowie arrived in camp. In anticipation of his coming, and to do him proper honor, Company E, Captain Wm. Black, of the Second Regiment, and Company A, Captain J. F. Arm- field, of the Fourth Regiment, together with the Second Regiment Band, the whole under the command of the first named Captain, were detailed to pro ceed to Wrightsville to meet the Gover nor upon his arrival and escort him to camp, a duty which they performed with credit and honor to the State, the Gov ernor, and themselves as citizen soldiers of the North Carolina State Guard. Both regiments, the whole under the command of Col. W. C. Jones, of the Second regiment, were drawn up in line to receive the Governor upon his arrival, and after he had alighted at the headquarters of Quartermaster General Olds, and his staff had all paid their re spects, the military passed in review. This imposing ceremony was performed in excellent style, the men marching by company front, with precision and with a soldierly bearing, worthy of veterans who had seen active service in the field The parade and review, in all its par ticulars, was highly creditable, and such was the unanimous verdict of the look ers-on. During the afternoon there were fre quent slight showers, but as the sol diers, except the guard, had no duties to perform, they rested until about 5 o'clock, when they began to prepare for evening drill and review, While thus engaged the German Cornet Band of this city, reinforced by some of the members of Prof. Miller's band, came into camp and marched to headquar ters, where they played several pieces very finely as a sort of daylight sere nade to the Governor. In the mean time the companies of both regiments had been formed and marched into the parade ground where the regimental lines were formed as a brigade, the Second Regiment being on the right, The whole was under the command of Col. W. C. Jones, of the Second. The Brigade being thus formed and and preceded by the Fourth Regiment stowed. 'band, passed in review before the Gov ernor. The marching at company front in this ceremony was better than we have previously seen this season. The lines were unbroken, and both the march ing were first rate. After the review was concluded the men were kept on the ground, where they remained until the evening dress parade was concluded It is proper to say that the Germania band were invited to play for the review, but they were compelled to decline the Rtair honor partly on account of previous ef forts and because they were under an engagement to play at the Hammocks last night. They were complimented by Adjutant General Glenn, who expressed an earnest hope tnat he might see them active members of the State Guard, a well-deserved compliment pleasantly be- The dress parade was held by regi ments, each one being under its imme diate commander, and each one fur nished with music by its own band. By this means those -who looked and lis tened had an excellent opportunity of judging of the merits of each organiza tion, as well as of listening to some ex cellent military music. With' the dismissal of the last dress parade the men got their suppers and the duties of the day in camp were over, always excepting the guard duty, which may be presupposed to be done at all times. The Governor remained in camp until about 7 o'clock, when he left for the Hammocks, where he stopped last night, leaving there on the first train this morning for home. Before leaving he freely expressed himself as much pleased with the Encampment and the work of the military, to whom he is an earnest, warm and devoted friend, and ever watchful for their interests. At half past 9 o'clock last night the United States soldiers in charge of the heavy artillery at the battery, awoke the stillness of the hour by firing two blank cartridges from the ten inch siege guns, followed by hnng eight shells from the siege motars, The exhibition was intended to show the workings of vertical firing. The shells were supplied with fifteen-second fuses, and were to alight about two miles distant. The ex periment was a complete success, show ing the younger generation "how they used to do in war times." IN AND AROUND CAMP. First Sergeant Walker Taylor is the tallest man in Co. C of the Second Regiment. There was not a man to respond at the camp hospital at the sick call yester day morning. There were 150 letters mailed from the tent of the Y. M. C. A. at Camp Latimer yesterday. The breeze was delightful at the Sound yesterday, and the soldiers en joyed it immensely. Adjutant Harriss, of the Second Regiment, is well posted and efficient in the duties of his position. There is a "right smart sprinklin' " of Confederate veterans doing duty with the soldiers at Camp Latimer. There was a glorious sea at Ocean View yesterday and the bathers got tumbled about to their heart's content. The Fourth Regiment band went through some very pretty marching ev olutions just after dress parade last night. There is but very little grumbling among the boys in camp, which is pretty good evidence that they are not old sol diers. It looks good to see ex-Captain J. C. Morrison doing a soldier's duty as a private in the ranks. He is a thorough soldier. There were lots of good instrumen- al music yesterday "by the sad sea waves," where the soldiers most do con gregate. Sergeant Helcher, and his detach ment of artillerists have won deserved commendation while at Wrightsville, by their orderly, respectful conduct. We looked at tde tables of several of the companies yesterday as the meals were being prepared, and the food was good in quality and abundant in quan tity. Adjutant Keesler, of the Fourth Regiment, is a thorough soldier and a polite and accommodating gentleman, who has our thanks for courtesies ex tended. A large number of the military went over to Ocean View yesterday forenoon, after the duties of the morn ing were over, to enjoy the luxury of bathing in the surf. There was quite a shower in camp yesterday afternoon at about half-past 12 o'clock, but it was not until after the morning drill, so that part of the ser vice was not neglected. It was cloudy and somewhat threat emng weather yesterday morning, but it did not deter a large number of our citi zens of both sexes and of all ages from visiting the Encampment. There was but one man sick in the camp hospital yesterday He had fever when he came, and has continued sick ever since. The sick man was sent to his home at Dallas, N. C, last night. The Germania cornet band played at the Hammocks last night, and visit ors and guests at that popular pleasure resort were delighted with the music they discoursed, and well they might be One of the officers at Camp Lati mer became so favorably impressed with the labors of the Y. M. C. A:, that he presented Mr. Busey - with five dollars with which to help along the good work. The programme is nearly arranged WHOLE NO. 7.443 and will be published to-morrow morn ing, for an interesting entertainment, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., at the pavilion at Camp Latimer to-morrow night. At one time last Wednesday night sixty men were counted in the tent of the Y. M. C. A., engaged in writing let ters, reading or indulging in innocent games. This is the largest gathering there at any one time. Yesterday was apple dumpling day according to a certain "menu" of one of the companies, but as apples are scarce and high this year the soldiers were con strained to eat their dumplin' minus the fruit. It was hard, but it was "fare!" Our friend and brother of the pencil-shoving fraternity. Mr. H. A. Murrill, of the Hickory Prezs and Carolinian, is drum major of the Fourth Regiment band, and right worthily and gracefully does he perform the duties of that office. There will be a Gospel service to night in the Y. M. C. A. tent at Camp Latimer, under the auspices of the As sociation, in which several prominent officers and soldiers ofthe encampment will take a leading part. The vocal mu sic will be accompanied by cornet and cabinet organ. GERMAN CELEBRATION. Anniversary of the First Emigration to America. Our German citizens held a very en thusiastic meeting last night in Luther Memorial Hall, and decided to celebrate the 350th anniversary of the first land ing of German settlers on the shores of America. An executive committee was appointed, consisting of Rev. F. W. E Peschau, L. Vollers, J. A. Bonitz, Sol. Bear. F. Rhinestein, F. W. Kerchner. Behrends, F. C. Miller. The meeting was addressed by Mr. Sol. Bear, Col. F. W. Kerchner. Mr Kerchner of Baltimore, Rev. F. W. E eschau, Mr. A. Goodman, Mr. S. Behrends and others. A general mass meeting of all Ger mans of this city ladies and gentlemen in furtherance of the object, will be held next Monday, August 11th, at 8 o'clock at Luther Memorial Building. A Fracas at Point Caswell. A difficulty occurred yesterday morn ing at -Point Caswell, between Capt. Herbert Ward, master of the steamer Delta, and a colored man namedLoftin Collins, which came near being a serious matter. Collins had placed a number of barrels of naval stores on the steamboat wharf, and refused to remove it when told to do so by Capt. Ward. An altercation then ensued, and Collins attempted to assault the captain, throwing misseles at him. Capt. Ward got his gun and fired at Col lins, the ball grazing the latter's left arm. The matter created considerable excitement at the Point for a short time, but no further disturbance occurr red. ! Collins, the man shot at, was in the city yesterday evening, arriving by train on the C. F. & Y. V. railroad, and last night Capt. Ward was arrested on a war rant issued by Justice Colvin at Point Caswell and executed here by two of Sheriff Manning's colored deputies Holmes and Whitney. Capt. Ward of fered to give bail, but it was refused, and he was committed to jail. Assault "With a Pistol. j Caizar Hall was committed to the custody of the Sheriff yesterday, under $50 bond for his appearance before the Criminal Court to answer to the charge of attempting to shoot Archy Ellerbe. Both men are colored. The cause of the trouble was Ellerbe s wife Laura who showed such partiality for Hall thas she .testified in his behalf at the examination and against her husband. It was de cided to hold her also, to answer to a charge of perjury, and when she was taken in custody a loaded pistol was found in her pocket. The case was investigated by Mayor Fowler. The Drowning Accident. Diligent search was made yesterday for the body of Mr. George Law, the mate of thejschooner fames Ponder, who was drowned in Cape Fear river Wed nesday night as reported in the Star. The body could not be found. The un fortunate man could not swim, and be sides itis though that in falling his head struck the wharf, and he may have been unconscious when he fell into the river.
