In the Senate yesterday Mr. Morgan occupied the morning hour in a speech 0n his resolution, offered Monday, di recting the Committee on Privileges and Elections to amend the Eleetion bill so as to show what are the changes and modifications intended to be made; speeches were made against the Elec tion bill by Messrs. Call and McPherson, and it was decided that when the Sen ate adjourns tb-day it be until Saturday; in the House the Speaker made a nujn berof committee appointments, after .yhich an adjournment took place until f riday. The Senate Finance Com mittee have reported a bill, with an amendment striking out the provision or the replacement of the National Bank note circulation by the issue of Treasury notes, and inserting a provi sion for the issue of $200,000,000 two r cnt. bonds, to be redeemable at pe measure auer ten cma. The War Department has received dispatches in dicating that the Indian troubles will soon be ended; Sitting Bull's people and those of Big Foot have come in and sur rendered, and the number of hostiles are now few in number; at Red Cloud's .camp the police arrested the Messiah, who proved to be an intelligent but termless crank from Iowa; some of the tcduns were indignant over his arrest, tool. -The election in North Ki'kenn'. Ireland, to fill the seat in the Houe of v.otnmons made vacant by the death of Mr. Marcum, resulted in the de'ea: of the Parnellites by -a majority o! x o ltj a sroman was hanged for murder in London yesterday: she con ned that the sentence passed upon her was a just one. Thirty thousand cases of "grip" are reported in New Or leans, and the mortality is grreater than has ever prevailed there except during veliow fever epidemics; there were 336 deaths during the past week. The Atlantic Coast Line has purchased for $5 1.000 a lot in Washington City, on which wil; be erected a fine building for general offices. Robert Gilliam, a North Carolina negro, was killed in Petersburg, Va.. yesterday, by a man s-hom he insulted while drunk. A brutal murder occurred yesterday in Danville, Va.; two men, while under the influence of liquor, quarreled in a sa loon, when one knocked the other down and Htrally stamped him to death with his heovy boots. Knoxville, Tenn., and the neighboring coun try were considerably shaken up yesterday by an earthqnake shock, New York markets: Money easy at 35 per cent, closing offered at 3; cot ton quiet; middling; uplands 9 3-l6c; middling Orleans 9Jc; southern flour dull and heavy; wheat dull and unset tled; No. 3 red $1 0i at elevator, and 0C38 afloat; corn lower, quiet and weak;No. 2, 60c at elerator; rosin steady; strained, common to good, $1 42) 1 iiyt spirits turpentine firm and :hijherat 3939c Nevada has become a much more xespectable State since Senator Stewart jumped on and mauled that force bill in the style he did. Senator Voorhees got down his broad sword, keen-edged as a lance, and went for the hypocritical admin istration two-handed Monday. The Republicans say they are not surprised at the Democratic victory in Boston. It is geting so that they are not surprised at Democratic vic tories anywhere now. The New York Commercial Adver ser presents its subscribers this year with a superb Christmas num ber, a thirty page, bound paper, filled with reading matter appro priate to the season and beautifully illustrated. The Indian police who murdered Sitting Bull scalped him. When In dian police go for a man and get him they want to be dead sure they have got him, and that he can't get away. When they shoot him and scalp him they itnow they've got him. Rev. A. B. Fizer, of Arkansas, is in trouble, He was badly scooped UP by the Democrats in his race for Governor, and now a Conference of his church has suspended him for five months for leaving his flock without permission and running for overuor and being walloped. Mr. Parnell expresses the opinion that all things considered the battle had been fought with little ill-temper n either side. That's the way it strikes the outsider when they in dulge in such little pleasantries as mining bags of lime, cobble stones, and other Uttie tokens of esteem at 1HE VOL. XLVII.NO. 79. The Democratic Senators are very unaccommodating. They refused again Monday to oblige old Codfish by informing him when they would quit talking on the Force bill, and agree to a time for taking a vote upon it. There is an old saying that there is a time for all things, but this is one of the things the Democratic Senators think there is no time for. Mr. Caminetti, who has been elect ed to Congress from California, is of Italian parentage but was born in California, and is said to be the first native , born Calif ornian elected to either House. It seems to us that Mr. Pachecho, who served in Congress some years ago, was a native of the State, whose ancestors for years had lived"in California. Hanging festivals seem to be very nicely conducted in Canada. The Associated Press dispatch says, speaking of the hanging of Blanch ard : "The whole proceedings were without an unpleasant incident." The presumption is that the chief performer in these proceedings, who fell and broke his neck, did not send this dispatch. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. The Markets Christmas closing.

The flag on all the vessels in port, at the Seamen's Home and at the office of Messrs. Heidc & Co., the Norwegian vice consulate, were at half-mast yes terday in token of mourning for the sad death of Mrs. Thorsen, wife of Capt. Thorsen, of the Norwegian barque Rosenburg. The vessel cleared from this city several days ago and was anchored at Southport, and Mrs. Thor sen died on board the barque on Mon day last. She leaves an infant son about three weeks old. Her remains were brought up to Wilmington yester day morning on the steamer Passport, and were interred in Oakdale Cemetery from St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Rev.

Jn the English services in St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church, at 11 a. m. to-morrow, there will be the finest and best of Christmas music. Not only will the superior choir render some of the finest of church music, but that will be, what is as far as we know, en tirely knew in our city, fine church music rendered by a string quartette. They will play the famous German Christmas aria, "Das Kirchlein, and other similar choice and churchly music. The services will be in English and begir. at 11 a. m. All are welcome. Going Back to Baleigh. Cain Hines, the colored man caught robbing trie,, money drawer in Mr. L. Voller's store on South Front street, was arraigned before Mayor Fowler yes terday, and in default of $100 bond for hisappearance at the Cnminul Court was committed to jail.

The fire-alarm was found to be out of order last night after the fire, and upon investigation it was ascertained that the break was in the circuit at the battery. It was repaired, and the proper tests made to show that it was again in order. The Supreme Court has decided in favor of the railroad company in the case for damages brought on appeal, by Miss Rebecca Hodges against the New Hanover Transit Co., for injuries alleged to have been received by plaintiff at Carolina Beach. The fourth annual Fair of the East Carolina Fish, Oyster, Game and Industrial Association, will be held at Newbern, February 23d to 28th, inclu sive. Kev. toward fcsull, representing the Association, is in Wilmington in the interest of the Fair. The Committee on Fire De partment of the Board of Aldermen met last night and directed the Mayor to procure plans and specifications for a new truck house for the Fifth Ward Hook and Ladder Company on property recently bought by the city for this pur pose. A building lorty by twenty-nve feet and two stories in height will be erected. Last Night's Fire. Fire broke out about half-past six o'clock last night in a two-story frame dwelling house on Sixth between Ann and Church streets, owned by Mr. Sol Bear and occupied by Mr. J. Mack Wilson, police officer Hall and others. The fire began in the kitchen attached to the dwelling, and it is sup posed was caused by a box of hot ashes placed near the woodwork. The kitchen was in flames before the fire was discovered and its progress was so rapid that the occupants of the house saved only a ;part of their household goods. The building was destroyed, causing a loss estimated at about $2,000, which is probably covered by insurance. There was no insurance on the furniture of the occupants. It was a stubborn fire, and gave the Department a great deal ot trouble. The firemen had four streams ot water playing aud succeeded in saving the property adjoining. A house on the south side of the burning building, oc cupied by Mr. Sikes, caught fire but was saved by the efforts of the firemen. There was delay in sending in the alarm. An attempt . was first made at box No. 42, corner of Fifth and Orange streets, but it failed, and recourse was had to box No. 41. corner of Fifth and Castle streets, and this alarm brought out the Fire Department. The "Small boy" put in some good and humane work during the progress of the fire, rescuing a dog that was chained sufficiently near the flames to have perished, and a basket of chickens that were close enough to have their "tail feathers scorched." A Ckristmas Fox Chase. A number of gentlemen arrived in the city last night from Gold"boro, to en gage in a fox hunt at Wrightsville. They brought nine horses and a pack of fifty five dogs, and will probably take the field to-day. They will stop at Capt. Manning's place at Wrightsville. The gentlemen comprising the party are Messrs. Will Hunter, J. W. Lamb, W. T. Dortch, I. H. Hill, Jr., Dr. Jas. Spicer, J. R. Parks, J. W. Wood, George Best and Tom Edmundson. They will re main here the remainder ot the week, and will probably be joined in the chase by the Wilmington rox viuu ami . pack of hounds. TTna Market Houses.

W., O. &. E. C Ri R. The Board of Aldermen Grant the Bight of Way on Front and Surry Streets. The Board of Aldermen met at the City Hall last night at 8 o'clock to con sider the ordinance granting the right of way to the W., O. & E. C. Railroad Company on Front and Surry streets. Alderman Craft submitted the ordi nance, Alderman Montgomery moved its adoption and Alderman Bell sec onded the motion. Alderman Pearsall said that he had been reliably informed that the extreme end of what is known as Front street is not really the street ; that it lies farther the right. He asked if the city would be liable if this should turn out to be a fact. City Attorney Cutlar explained that no liability would attach to the city; granting right of way did not amount to anything if any part of the street should turn out to be priyate prop- rty. The ordinance was then submitted to vote and was adopted unanimously. It grants the right of way on Front street, and on Surry street as far as opened, as asked for by the company; that the corporate authorities of the city may from time to time prescribe such emulations as they may deem proper for the safety, security and comfort of the citizens. The grade of the track shall be established by the Citv Surveyoi and the company shall fill in Dawson street on the north side, and Wooster and Surry streets as the city authorities may determine. It is required, also, that when the streets on which the road runs are paved the track shall also be paved with the same material by the railroad company, and that the company shall surrender and give up the privilege heretofore granted for the use of Queen street. The railroad company commenced work yesterday on a portion of the road passed upon by the City Surveyor, and will now press the work vigorously until its completion to the river side at the foot of Queen street. It is expected that the work will be finished in three weeks. The matter of the right of way for the railroad through the property of the Cotton Mills Co. has been amicably ar ranged; the question of damages to be settled by arbitration. VAUDEVILLE COMPANY. Complimentary Supper Resolutions Adopted, etc. Wilmington, N. C, Dec. 23, 1890. At a meeting of the committee ap pointed by the Wilmington Amateur Vaudeville Company the following reso lutions expressive of the pleasure given them by Mrs Jas.

The following is the range of the ther mometer yesterday at the Signal Office in this city, as compared with the same date last year: 1890 1889 1a n'1-u1r nnnn 59 61 4 p. m 83 8?.m 62 S9 NGr THE COLLECTORSHIP. Mr. J. C. Ij. Harris Throws Some Side Light on the Fight for the Wilmington Col ectorship. Mr. J. C. L. Harris, who has just, re turned to Raleigh from a visit to Wash ington, D. C,. gives the News and Ob server some points about the Wilming ton Collectorship. The fight, Harris says, has reached a white heat. James H. Young, of Raleigh, and John Taylor. of Wilmington, now acting Collector. and formerly Deputy Collector under Mr. Pennypacker, are the contestants for the position. Young is backed by Cheatham, and Taylor is championed by Judge D. L. Russell, ex-Sheriff Man ning, and other prominent Republicans of Wilmington. Judge Russell has filecU over his own name charges against Young that he committed penury in the last election. Having been living in Raleigh and taking active part in the ward meetings, and being elected to the county and State conven tions, Judge Russell states that Young s residence is in that city, and that he is now Secretary of the Wake county Re publican committee. Notwithstanding this, Judge Russell states that Young registered and voted at Wilmington and swore that he had been in New Han over county ninety days previous to his registration. Other serious charges have been preferred against Young by Judge Russell, one to the effect that Young, who is now Inspector of Customs at Wilmington, which he has held for some months.-frequently left his office and was away from the city in Cheatham's dis trict doing political work for days at a time, and that he swore that on those days on which he was absent he was en-, faged in the performance of his duty as nspector of Customs. Young, on the other hand, says that he was absent with the knowledge and consent of the Treasury officials, and that it is so stated on his vouchers. Judge Russell has announced that if Young is again nominated for collector of the port of Wilmington, his confirma tion will be resisted, and if confirmed he will have Young prosecuted in the- frederal Court for making false charges against the government and for perjury. It is understood that Judge Kussell has had an interview with the President, and that he said that having nominated Young once he would do so again, un less some good reason was shown why he should not do so, and Judge Russell left Washington under the impression that Young would be nominated. Personal. Mr. Christian Bornemann, father of Messrs. J. C, J. H. and G. W. Borne mann and Mrs. Kate uerdes, ot tnis city, arrived here last night from Lamstedt, amt Osten, Provinz Han nover, (jermany, and will spend some months with his children. It has been nineteen years since they met, and it is hardly necessary to say that there was rejoicing in the Bornemann family last night. A Cold Christmas. The Signal Service obseryer last night received a telegram from the chie f signal officer at Washington, D. C, directing that the cold wave signal be displayed. The temperature, it was said, will fall to about thirty-six degrees by 8 a. m. on the 25th. The tempera ture last night, at the time the telegram was received was at 50 degrees.
