The Senate yesterday adopted a con current resolution, expressing the; desire .if Congress for the removal of the re mains of General Grant to Arlington National Cemetery and a resolution was adpted accepting a statue and pedestal of the late distinguished officer, iron, the Grand Army of the Republic, to be erected in the Capitol; conference reports on the fortification and sundry civil appropriation bills were presented and agreed to; the tariff bill was then considered until adjournment; the gen eral deficiency bill was considered in the House. Dun & Co., in their weekly trade review, say the state of trade throughout the country appears satisfactory for the season, and reports are almost uniformly confident in tone; the crop prospects are less promising; business failures for the week number JOS, against 189 for previous week. The switchmen on the New York Cen tral and Hudson River railroad inaugu rated a strike last night, and the road is tied up from Buffalo to New York; the Grand Union Hotel, in New York city, is crowded with people who expected to leave the city, and had engaged passage lor various points. The cholera mortality at Jeddah shows no signs of abatement, and the deaths number about one hundred daily; all points on the Red Sea are guarded to prevent the landing of persons from Arabia. The Anti Lottery League of Louisiana has issued an address to the people of the United States, severely denouncing the Louisi ana company as fraudulent in every re spect, and memoralizing the President and Congress to bring about such legis lation as will break down the power of the concern, and prevent a possibility of its being ever again reestablished. The population of Atlanta, Ga., is 05,414, which is an increase during the census period of 28,105, or 75.13 per cent. Two ladies and two children, of a pleasure party from Baltimore, were drowned Thursday while bathing in a creek in St. Mary's county; the under tow from a passing steamboat swept them beyond their depth; nine of the party were rescued by oystermen. Dr. Pettegrini has been elected to the Presidency of the Argentine Republic, and there is great rejoicing in Buenos rvyics, iiic tiiy was lnuniiuaieu inurs- day night; the Governors of all of the provinces have sent congratulations to the new President. A terrible hail storm is reported from Montevideo, Minn.; the standing grain crops were totally destroyed, New York mar kets: Money 58 per cent.; cotton quiet; middling uplands 12)c; mid dling Orleans 11 13-lCc; southern flour heavy; wheat quiet, weak and lc lower; No. 2 red 9899c; corn dull and heavy; No. 2. 5455c; spirits tur pentine quiet and steady at 41Jc Philadelphia's population is said to be 1,044,894, a gain of 23 per cent, since 1880. Not bad for a quiet rural town like that. A New York paper speaks of a thief who died of remorse. It does not give his politics but it is safe to say that he was not a Republican. As Reed's majority in his district is not quite 2,000, even with sixteen dollar bribes and whiskey thrown in, he will probably find the Kittery navy yard quite serviceable in the next election. The Republicans in Congress have so effectually wrecked the treasury that they haven't any more money to build lighthouses to save ships from wrecking. Secretary Blaine denies the reports that lie intends to resign from the Cabinet, but they can't get him to say that he won't be m the White House race in 1892. The latest kink according to the New Haven Palladium in bicycling in that city, is attaching wicker seats to the bicycles on which the riders take their heirs out for an. airing. As President Harrison will save about $100,000 of his salary he can probably worry through the increase of tarif duties in the McKinley bill, especially if sugar goes on the free list. Mr. Carnegie draws his princely income from his protected iron works in this country and spends it m England and Scotland, where he finds living more congenial to his tastes than in this country. That watchman who shot at and killed a colored boy who was run "ing away from him in Philadel phia the other day, says he didn't aim to hit the boy, but just to fright en him. This is probably so. ' Watch men seldom hit anything they aim at VOL. XLVI.--NO. 119. Granny Hoar has at. last worked up that force bill and sprung it upon the Senate. In view of the fact that the force advocates assert that this bill is necessary to save the country is remarkable that not one Repub lican State has asked for it and while numerous protests from Re publican States have been presented in the Senate against it not a single petition in favor of it has been pre sented. The conspirators are run ning the thing on their own account exclusively. A Boston publisher says the rea son why Postmaster General Wana- maker excluded Tolstoi's "Kreutzer Sonata" from the mails was because he was refused a big discount on a purchase he wanted to make for his store. This hardly looks reasona ble, but the Boston man talks out in meeting as if he meant every word of it and could prove it. The failure of the rice crop in apan has caused much suffering and many deaths are reported from star vation. It hasn't got quite that bad with the Kansas farmer yet, for al though he has a pretty rough time he has corn to eat and to burn, when he can't buy coal. Mr. Carnegie has built another castle in Scotland, and announces that he will spend more of his time over there. As Mr. Carnegie's in come from his protected iron works n this country is abont $1,500,000 a year, he can spend his time and money where he pleases. Blaine's reciprocity idea is taking with Western Republicans, those in Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Kansas and Nebraska - giving it a hearty support. If Reed, McKinley & Co. could apply the House gag rules to Blaine they might still be happy. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Star Office Babbitt metal. Munson & Co Reduced prices. Steamers Beach and Southport.

Survivors of the Eighteenth N. C. Troops did not have their reuniot yesterday the weather was too bad. Many of them, however, united with the Veteran Association in their visit to the Encampment. The Veterans carried two flags with them yesteaday on their visit to the Encampment one a Confederate battle-flag, which belonged to Flanner's artillery company, and the other a Uni ted States flag. Mr. F. P. Chaffee, observer m charge of the Signal Service station here, leaves this morning for Beaufort, N. C on a three week's vacation. During his absence Mr. Geo. W. Eddy, his assistant, will fill the position. The Star is requested to state that each and every member of Grace M. E. Church is desired to be present at to-morrow morning s services, as a mat ter of interest and importance to the Church and congregation will be pre sented for action. The heavy rain yesterday after noon prevented a large turnout of the Confederate veterans. About twety-five, however, assembled at the Ortou at 4.30 p. m., and marched to the depot on Front street, where they boarded a-train for Wrightsville, Col. Jno. D. Taylor was in command. The heaviest rainfall yesterday in this district ot the cotton belt was at Goldsboro, which recorded 1.85 inches; Lumberton reported .97, Raleigh .84 and Wilmington .42. Slight showers were reported from other stations. Rain was general throughout the cotton region but the average fall was moderate. Mass Meeting of the Germans. Slowly but steadily the number of Germans in our city has increased in the last forty years, and both their num bers and finances constitute a very im portant factor in our city affairs. Ihey have repeated the history of thousands of places in this country in Wil mington, by their success, with the thrift and honesty proverbial with the Germans. We are glad to see that pre parations are being made to celebrate the German Immigration Day, for Wil mington should be behind in nothing good. Such a celebration as we learn is contemplated, namely, a grand Ger man parade and German industrial dis play, will not only be a source of pleas ure to our people, but also,no doubt, a profit to our city. We hope the Ger mans will make this a success. They will have a mass meeting on next Mon day, at 8.30 p. m., in Luther Memorial Building, to further the move. Musle at the Hammocks.

THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE GUARD. Gloomy Weather The Morning Drill Artillery Practice Veterans in Camp A Musical Entertainment To day. Owing to the gloomy rainy weather, there were comparatively few visitors at Camp Latimer yesterday and the grounds presented rather a deserted and, as some of the young soldiers expressed it, cheerless appearance. But the weather, like time and tide, waits for no man, and as for that matter, for no woman. It must be taken as it comes, aided by um brellas and rubbers. The rain acted kindly, however, in one important sense as it put off its appearance until the morning drill was concluded, so that that did not suffer in consequence. The military evolutions in the morn ing drill were performed in an entirely satisfactory manner, and, in our humble judgment it. was, taken as a whole, the best of the present season. Officers and men seemed to be awake to the occasion. The commands were given properly and in the true martial spirit, and executed promptly and with soldierly precision. In fact, the esprit du corps of the State Guard seemed to possess every one, whether he wore a sword or carried a musket. During the forenoon a detachment from Company C, Second Regiment (Wilmington Light Infantry), under the command of Capt. Kenan, marched over to the battery, where they were drilled m the manual of heavy artillery by Sergeant Helcher, assisted by the men under his charge. The detachment en tered heartily and earnestly into the spirit of the work, and their progress was highly creditable for a first lesson. While the most of the instruction and practice was confined to the manual, it was concluded to fire onceuscwone of the seige guns was loaped with a ninety pound solid sfiot and djscharged. The gun was ained for the shot to strike in the charmel, some thing more than a mile from the battery and so perfeet was "the aim that it struck the water right at ithe point aimed at, throwing the spray in every direction to the height of forty oi fifty feet. The experiment was in every way highly satisfactory, and all present were much gratified at the result. In this connection it is but simple jus tice to say that Sergeant Helcher, as well as the Corporal and men under him, have been ever ready and willing to assist the military in this branch of the service. They have manifested a lively interest in the encampment, and in all the movements looking to the ad vancement of the soldiers in a know ledge of tactics and in everything per taining to the duties of the soldier. On account of the rain there was no afternoon drill nor dress parade and it was feared that the Veterans would not be able to pay their promised visit as is their annual custom, and many re grets were uttered for fear that they would not come at all. However, at about half-past 5 o'clock in the afternoon a delegation of the Veterans arrived, having been conveyed from Wrights ville in wagonettes. The delegation was a small one, but they nevertheless re ceived a hearty and cordial welcome. They were received informally but cor dially and after calling upon the officers at headquarters, they passed through the camp, with many a pleasant word for the young soldiers, and then left for the train that was to bear them home. The programme for this evening's en tertainment, to be given in the pavilion on the camp grounds, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., will be varied and interesting, as the following will show; Overture "Crown of Victory," by the Band of the Second Regiment. Trio (Instrumental) R. L. Keesler, organist; Capt. J. F. Reid and C. H Wynne, violinists, all of the Fourth Re giment. Vocal Duet with' guitar accompani ment, "No Hope Beyond" M. Nor wood and H. Laney, of the Fourth Re giment. Recitation, "The Old Homestead" E. B. Lewis, of Fourth Regiment. Trombone Solo (Polka) Second Re giment Band. Duet, "The Flower Bong," with or gan, by R. L. Keesler, and violin, by Capt. J. F. Reid, of the Fourth Regi ment. Selection on the Auto Harp, by Drum Major M. P. Taylor, Jr., of the Second Regiment Band. Vocal Duet "Medley," guitar accom paniment, by M. Norwood and H. Lanez, of the Fourth Regiment. Selection, by the Second Regiment Band. The entertainment promises to be one of real interest, and will undoubted ly prove an. attraction worthy of the Encampment and those who take a part, besides reflecting honor on the efforts of the Y. M. C. A. IN AND AROUND CAMP. Gov. Fowle went home on the first train home yesterday morning. There is but very little sickness in camp, and those who are sick have but very slight ailments. Sobriety, politeness and gentleman like conduct are notable features of the present encampment. The mail facilities of the present encampment are much better than those of that which preceded this. Junior Second Lieut. Sv R. Hilliard, of Company D, Rocky Mount Light Infantry, is a veteran of the late war. While there is hardly any sickness in camp the health of many has been much benefited by "roughing it" on the "tent ed field." The rainy weather yesterday in terfered quite seriously with the amount of travel on the Seacoast railroad to Wrightsville. Camp Latimer is thoroughly in spected every morning by the Inspector General and the Officer of the Day for the time being. It is estimated that three hundred watermelons are sold daily in Camp Lat- i imer, which is fun and profit for those who raise them. i There were but very few ladies in j camp yesterday, and those who were in white dresses wished they had worn some other color. Some of the soldiers are trying to make arrangements to . go out to the Blackfish grounds on the Sylvan Grove with Capt. Harper, next Monday. The question, "who is the best looking officer or enlisted man in Camp Latimer?" was an important and puz zling problem propounded yesterday afternoon. Company D., of the Second Regi-' ment, from Rocky Mount, has the honor of having the largest company in camp, having forty-six men present, out of forty-eight on the rolls. Rev. J. W. Turner, of Clinton, Chap lain of the Sampson Light Infantry, will, by request of Rev. Dr. Carmichael, preach in St. Johns' church, in this city, at 11 o'clock on Sunday morning. R. W. Thomas, of Company D is first sergeant of the company and was also a first sergeant of a company from Rocky Mount which took a prom inent and honorable part in the "late onpleasantness. " There is an excellent string band composed of the men of Company D., of the Fourth Regiment, who make the evenings pass pleasantly by their de lightful music. In fact, their quarters are a centre of attraction. There are lots of violins in camp, and quite a number of men who can make pleasant music by drawing a "horse's tail across a cat's innards." and we do no violins (violence) to the most sensitive feelings in making the asser tion. When there were but few visitor in camp yesterday, the "ambulance corpse" were kept busy as usual, for every one who went to or from the grounds, whether soldier or civilian, took a carnage rather than tramp in the rain. There is regular morning drill of the officers of the Fouith Regiment, held at regimental headquarters every day for the purpose of keeping them so well posted as to be able to give the men the best possible instruction in their va rious duties. Almond McKoy Griggs, a grand son of the late lamented Judge A. A. McKoy, and Warren T. Johnson, son of Captain W. A. Johnson, of the Samp son Light Infantry, are in camp with the boys from Clinton. They are fine, worthy, young gentlemen. The sanitary condition of ttite camp is carefully and efficiently attended to, and, as a consequence, it is as good as it possibly can be under the circum stances. The wet weather is unfavora ble for thorough sanitation, but every thing is attended to for the preservation of health. In explanation of the cause why the expected target practice has not been carried out before this, we are informed, that the targets which were ordered on the 14th of June last did not arrive un til Thursday night. It is not through any fault of the military authorities that they were not in camp on the. first day of the first encampment. WHOLE NO. 7.444 HATTERAS LIGHTHOUSE. A - Contract Awarded for One of the Greatest Undertakings in the History of Engineering, Anderson & Barr, of Jersey City, N J.. have been awarded a contract for building a lighthouse on Outer Diamond Shoal, off Cape Hatteras, coast of North Carolina, at their bid of $485,000. The contractors are to begin work within one month and are to have the structure completed within two years. They are required to maintain the light for one year. The plans and specifications for the structure were prepared by the con tractors within certain limits prescribed by the lighthouse board. The same firm several years ago built the light house n Fourteen-foot bank, in Dela ware bay, where, however, the difficul ties encountered were not nearly so grave as those at Outer Diamond Shoal. The same plan has been adopt ed for the erection of this light as was used in Delaware bay. A large iron caisson, with- a hollow cylinder rising from its centre, will be built, probably at Norfolk, though pos sibly at Hatteras Inlet, and will then be towed out to where the light is to be located. Here the caisson will be sunk in about twenty-four feet of water until it rests upon the sand of the shoal. It will be sunk by piling stone on top of it. When it rests firmly on the sands the work of excavating will be begun, the work being done by men inside the cais son from which the water will be excluded by forcing air down from above. As the material is excavated the caisson will be carried down until a suitable foundation is reached. Just how far down this may be is not known. It may not be over forty feet or it may be one hundred. As soon as the caisson is firm on a solid foundation it will be completely filled with concrete, as will also the hollow cylinder, to a height of thirty feet above the water. When this concrete hard ens it will form a monolithic structure with a thin iron shell. Rip-rap work will be built up about this base so as to break the force of waves. When this concrete base and its rip-rap protection are in position the building of the su perstructure, or the lighthouse proper, will be comparatively easy. This struc ture is to be of iron lined with brick. Its first floor will be thirty feet above water and will be reached by a strong ladder. It will be the store room, in which will be kept coal, wood, fresh wa ter and three life-boats. The second floor will contain the fog signal machi nery, with a boiler and small engine. The third floor will contain a fire-proof vault for the storage of mineral oil and tanks for fresh water. There will also be space on this floor for one year's provi sions for four men, The fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh floors are to be the living rooms of the house. The eighth floor is to contain the service room and above this are to be the watch-room and the lantern. Pshaw! Editor Star You state in this morn ing's Star that the warrant against Capt. Ward was executed by two of Sheriff Manning's deputies, Holmes and Whitney. Can't you try and find out the truth before publishing such things. Holmes and Whitney are not Deputy Sheriffs and have not been for some years. Holmes is the Township Con stable, and as such executed the warrant, The Sheriff's officers had nothing to do with it. W. H. bHAW, Aug. 8th, 1890 Deputy Sheriff. Well, this is really a very small affair But what's the matter with Holmes and Whitney, that a statement that they are connected with the Sheriff's office is so promptly denied? Arn't they good enough for Stephen? Yes, we can "try and find out the truth" about "such things," but we won't apply at the Sher iff's office for that commodity, because it don't vegetate there. Pshaw! A Crazy Negro Supposed to be an Escaped Convict. Police officer Howell arrested a col ored man vesterdav afternoon who gave his name as Thomas Anderson, and is supposed to be insane. He was found at the house of a colored woman, who had reported at the City Hall that a crazy negro had broken into her house and would not leave. It is claimed by some persons that Anderson is the es caped convict for whom a reward of $100 would be offered by Gov. Fowle as mentioned in the Star yesterday. A Suspicious Character. A strange white man, who gave his name as Joseph Sypher and said that he had just arrived in town from Jackson ville, Fla., was "run in" by police offi cers last night who saw him acting in a manner that created suspicion that he was a thief or robber. The man was ragged and dirty and when searched no thing but a small piece of tobacco was found on his person Shot Himself. A young son of Mr. J. Casteen, living on Castle between Third and Fourth streets, accidentally shot himself in the leg with a pistol yesterday forenoon. The wound was not a serious one. It was oromotlv attended to bv Dr. F. W. Potter. One Square One Day.. . ........'. 00 iwo iy.... i- - 4t vm. r..,l T 8 00 s" " FiwTv'T,.. 8 60 W J 4W4 44P4W- .
