Br Telegraph to the Maniac Stat. Washington, May 7. Disquieting news from Central. America and South America, has ,caused tbe Navy Depart ment to assign several ships to localities where American interests may be endan gered through prospective hostilities. On account of the revolution in Salva dor, the assignment of tbe gunboat Ben nington to Behring sea has been changed and to-day she was ordered to proceed from San Francisco to the perturbed Central American republic. Orders were also issued for - the cruiser New York to proceed from Kingston, Jamaica, to Colon and the cruiser Charleston from Montevideo to Calico. Tbe emergency which calls for the pre sence of the New York at Colon, is the Bluefields affair and the big cruiser will be kept there pending any serious reci tal of tbe Mosquito coast trouble. Tbe Charleston was originally assigned to the Pacific Naval Station, and left New York for that service soon after the Colum bian Naval Review, but was detained at Rio Janeiro until recently on account of the Brazilian revolution. Her presence at Callao is not urgent, but reports of dissatisfaction among the people on the west coast hove decided the department to send her there as a safeguard. GRAIN AND PROVISIONS. n actuations in IMoes on the Chioafto Board of Trade. By Telegraph to the Moraine Stat. . Chicago, May 7. It was not until within the last fifteen minutes of the session that the full extent of to-day's weakness in wheat was felt. Things, however, were gloomy for the bulls from the start, and as the closing hour ap proached, with no 'hope in sight they were forced to throw their holdings overboard. Cash wheat was in moderate -demand, with offerings and prices about hie lower, excepting for hard spring varieties, which held firm. July wheat sold between 59S59c and 58c closing at 58X59c. a net loss of IX tyic lor the day. Corn The news bearing on this mar ket was all more or less calculated to produce a firm feeling, but it bad ap parently been discounted long before received. The weakness showed by wheat acted more pointedly in the case of corn than anything else in sight. The range on July was between 89 and 38. c, the close being at 89c, a cet loss of XKc bom Saturday. Offerings of cash corn were lost. Oats opened with a steady but ner vous feeling, especially for May. During the latter portion of the session there was less demand from shorts and May declined to and closed c under Satur day. July closed c under that day. Provisions opened easy on the weak hog market, reported from the stock yards. There was a little firmness shortly after the start on a little scat tered buying but the final tone was weak in sympathy with grain. There was, however, only a narrow market and a small business. July pork closed 2Jc lower than Saturday; July lard a shade lower and July ribs 5c lower. tammany"hall. Dick Croker Wants a Best, But Will Not Rwsign the Xasadetahlp. By Telegraph to tha Maniac Stat. New York, May 7. Richard Croker, tbe Tammany Hall leader, made the fol lowing statement this morning : "I do not intend to attend to the active work of the organization any longer. I can not give that attention to details in the future that I have given in the past. The' details of the organization must hereafter be attended to by some one else. The Executive' Com mittee must appoint one or more sub-committees to do the work I have been doing. I hsre given the or ganization my time and attention for the last thirty years and I need rest. My physcians say that I cannot afford, for the sake of my health, to confine myself in doors. Remember, I do not wish to shirk the duties and responsibilities of leadership. . I -will give the organiza tion whatever assitance I can render, but I cannot continue doing the work which can be done as well by some one else. I will put the matter before the Execu tive Committee at its next meeting." Croker was emphatic in his statement "that be would not resign the leadership. ; WARM WI RELETS.

A RESOLUTION CONCERNING COXEY PRESENTED IN THE SENATE. The Chinese Treaty Taken Up Bill for Bail dine s Government Printing Offloe 'Under Csnsiderstion in tbe House. Br Telegraph to the Morning -Slat. SENATE. - ' Washingxon, May" 7. Mr. Allen (PopvNeb.) offered a prcraable and res olution reciting that Coxey, Browne and Jones, citizens of the United States, were, on May 1, 1894, ou the grounds of the National Capitol, in the city of Wash ington, assaulted by a police force in the service ol toe united Mates, and ar rested and imprisoned while peaceably entering such grounds' in a quiet and or derly manner. . ... The resolution was laid over till to morrow, on objection of Mr. CockreU. Mr. Mitchell (Rep., Oregon) reminded tbe presiding efficer of the resolution of fered by bim some weeks ago, . and laid over till tbe third of May, requesting the Chinese treaty to be considered in open session. He asked, that it be now laid before the Senate. . Tbe resolution was thereupon laid be fore the Senate by the Vice-President, and instantly Mr. Perkins (Rep, Cal.) was on tbe floor addressing tbe Chair and stating that the Chinese treaty had already been published by authority ot the Senate. He was interrupted with a question of order from Mr. Chandler, and with the privileged motion that tbe resolution be considered in secret ses sion. - Mr. Perkins requested Mr. Chandler to withdraw his motion so as to afford an opportunity of discussing the reso lution in open Senate. He repeated that the resolution bad already been published by authority of the Senate. . Mr. Chandler's motion was not with drawn, but was seconded by Mr. Mander so n, thereupon tbe Vice-President directed that the galleries be cleared ana we aoors locxea. Ana so. at li. so o clock a. m, the Senate proceeded to the consideration of execu tive business the Chinese treaty being the matter immediately before it, The Senate remained behind closed doors until 5.40 p. m., when the doors were reopened and a conference report was presented on the bill to regulate the sale of intoxicating liquors in the Dis trict of Columbia. As soon as the re port was read and agreed to. the Senate again, on motion of Mr. Morgan (Dem of Alabama) proceeded to executive business, but twenty minutes afterwards the "four bells" indicating adjournment, were sounded, and the Senate adjourned until to-morrow. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House resolved itself into Com mittee of the Whole, with Mr. Bynum, (Indiana) in the chair, and took, up tbe bill for the building of a Government printing office. The bill appropriates $300,000 to buy the square north of the Capitol and ad joining the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad station, and authorizes the construction of a substantial and fire-proof building at a cost not exceeding $1,500,000. Mr. Bankhead then endeavored to ob tain unanimous consent to limit general debate, but was unsuccessful. To over come this, he moved that the commit tee rise, which was agreed to. The Republicans desired that general debate on the Printing Office bill should run to-day, at least, without limit, but Mr. Bankhead declined, and moved that the House resolve itself into Committee of the Whole tor further consideration of the bill, pending which he moved that general debate be restricted to two hours. Thereupon the Republicans manifested a disposition to filibuster, and Mr. Bank head yielded to tbe solicitations of his Democratic associates, and modified his motion so as to permit two and a half hours' debate to the opponents of the bill, the friends of the bill to take an hour with the option of two and a half hours if desired. This was agreed to and the discussion proceeded in Com mittee of the Whole. The discussion took in a good many subjects besides a site for a public build ing in Washington the Tariff bill, the silver question, tbe issue of bonds, etc, and continued until 5.15, when the com mittee arose and the House adjourned until to-morrow noon. SPOTS AND FUTURES. The New York Bun's Report of the Situa tion in Cotton. ' Br Telegraph to tha Moraine Stat. New York, May 7. The Sun's cot ton review says : Cotton declined six to seven points and closed quiet and steady with part of the loss regained. Sales, 98,700 bales. Crop accounts from India of late have been less favorable. Texas crop accounts continue favorable. In some sections of Mississippi there will be a decrease in the acreage. Rain is needed in parts of Alabama. Liverpool declined three and a half to lour points, closing quiet and steady. Spot sales. 7,000 bales, at easier bet unchanged prices. Manchester was dull tor yarns and dull and irregular for cloths. Bom bay receipts for the half week were 86,000 bales, against 87,000 for the same time last year. The receipts at the ports were 8.609 bales, against 7.805 this day last week, and 4,289 last year. -Thus far this week, 8,465 bales. Spot cotton here was steady and unchanged. Sales 801 bales for spinning. Deliveries on contract, 1,100 bales. The Southern spot markets were generally quiet and unchanged. New Orleans receipts to-morrow are estimated at 1,000 o 1,200 bales, against 1,425 the same day last week, and 8,766 last year. All the news was bearish, and it can not excite surprise that prices are de clined. Liverpool was lower. Man chester was depressed, there was a failure reported there on Saturday, the South was dull, speculation was sluggish, cot ton goods were hard to sell and supplies are plentiful here and abroad.

THE TARIFF BILL. proposed amendments to the - " MEASURE . r ' Agreed to by the Coin promise Committee of rhe Senate Fraetleally a Hew Bill. ' By Telegraph to the afonOacStmi. - - Washington, May 7. Daring the' executive session to-day Senator Jones presented amendments to the Tariff bill which have been considered and agreed to by tbe Democratic Senators known as the Compromise.' Committee. There are about four hundred of them and it makes a new bill, of a measure greatly differing from the Wilson bill and from the Senate bill in any form In which it has been presented.' The amendments heretofore presented by Senator Vest and reported from the Finance Commit tee are endorsed by the Compromise Committee. There is a general increase in the bill, and in some schedules the increases are very marked. Many of the changes are unimportant, and consist of a restora tion of the House duties which the Senate had decreased. A number of articles have been taken from the free list, chief among these being , agricul tural products. Probably, as the result of the criticism that the bill has been drawn on sectional lines, the committee has reduced the duty on rice- .... , . . ... , Another very important' amendment is that relative to leaf tqbacco; in which there is a- very material increase in the rates of duty The chemical schedule, against which the Republicans have levelled some of their arguments, has been reconstructed in many particulars, and here, as in the other schedules, the change is noted from ad valorem to specific duties, to say nothing ot the in crease in the rates. The iron and glass schedules have been overhauled and changes demanded by manufacturers have been made, some of them not so much in the nature of increases as they are in the way of reclassification and the equalization of duties. The rumors that have been floating about for some days of the mysterious influences at work in regard to the woollen and cotton sche dules appear to have had some ground for the changes on these lines have been numerous, and in some cases very material. Coal, iron ore, lead yre and lumber were not touched. The lead trust was not the gainer by these amendments for there was not an increase on the dutyin lead products. Nothing was done with whiskey, but if all the rumors in connection with the article be true, it is very likely that a vigorous fight will be made to put the tax on whiskey back to one dollar a gallon which the bill carried when it came from tbe House. The tobacco schedule is" changed to read as follows. "Wrapper tobacco, unstemraed, imported in any bale, package or in bulk, one dollar and fifty cents per pound; if stemmed two dollars and twenty-five cents per pound. House and Senate bills $1.00 and $1.25 respectively, on above articles. Filler tobacco, un stemraed, imported in any bale, box, package or in bulk, thirty-five cents per pound; if stemmed fifty cents per pound; no change in rates, but following proviso is added: "Provided, that the wrap per tobacco, wherever used in this act, shall be taken to mean that quality of leaf tobacco known commercially as wrapper tobacco: provided farther, that if any leaf tobacco imported in any bale, box. package, or in bulk shall be the growth of different countries, or shall differ in quality and value, save as pro vided in the succeeding provision, then the entire contents of such bale, box, package or in bulks, shall be subject to the same duty as wrapper tobacco. Snuff and snuff flour, manufactured of tobacco, ground, dry or damp, and pickled, scented, or otherwise, of all de scriptions, 50 cents per pound. Senate and House bills 40 cents. The cigar paragraph is amended to read as follows : "Cigars, cigarettes, cheroots of all kind, $4 per pound and 25 cent, ad valorem, and paper cigars and cigarettes, including wrappers, shall be subject to the same duties as are herein imposed upon cigars." Rice, free of outer hull, of a cent per pound; House and Senate 1 cent; paddy or rice having outer hull, J cent per pound; House and Senate bills X cent per pound. The sugar schedule : "On and after January 1st, 1895, there shall be levied collected and paid on all sugars not above No. sixteen Dutch standard in color, and on all tank bottoms, syrups of cane juice or of beet juice, melada. concentrated melada, concrete and concentrated molasses, a duty of forty per centum ad valorem and upon all sugars above No. 16 Dutch standard in color there shall be levied, collected, and paid a duty ot one-eighth of one per cent, per pound in addition to the said duty of forty per centum ad valorem, and all sugars, tank bottoms, syrups of cane juice or of beet juice, melada, concentrated melada, concrete or concentrated molasses, which are imported from and are the product of any country which at the time the same are exported therefrom, pays, directly or indirectly, a bounty on the export thereof, shall pay a duty of one tenth of one-cent per pound in addition to the foregoing rates. Provided, that nothing herein contained shall be so con strued as to abrogate or in any manner impair or effect the provisions of the treaty of - commercial reciprocity concluded between the United States and the King of the Ha waiian islands on the 30th day fit Janu ary, 1875, or the provisions of any act of Congress heretofore passed for the exe cution of the same. . S. C. LIQUOR LAW. The Supreme Court to Bender Its Decision, To-day on toe Question of Prohibition or Tree Liquor. Br Telegraph to tha Mnralng Star. Columbia, S. C May 7. The Su preme Court to-day heard the Florence injunction and habeas corpus cases, which are designed to kill the dispensary law of 1893, and to settle the question of prohibition or free liquor. The Court an nounced that it would render its decision to-morrow morning. In the habeas corpus case J. Ellis Branson seeks to be re leased from custody. He was arrested for selling liquor. The injunction case is to restrain the City Copncil of Florence from issuing licenses for the sale of liquors. The latter case was given the most prominence, but both involved the same questions. Attorney Wilcox ap peared for the injunction and S. A. Nettles, Darlington, represented the city. CONFEDERATE VETERANS Invited to Attend the Unveiling of the " Monument to Privates of the Array sad ' Bary at Biohmond, May 30th. - By Telegraph to the Moraing Stat. Richmond, Va May 7.

The News of Saturday thus outlines a peculiar phase of business competition in Savannah : War has been declared between the ice manufacturers and beer dealers. As tbe result ot the war ice is already down to 25 cents a hundred, and beer is to be sold at $1 a keg next week. The beer dealers put the price of ice down, and tbe ice manufacturers propose to put the price of beer down in retaliation. The result is likely to be a very pretty fight, of which the people will get the benefit. Cheap ice and cheap beer will add a great deal to the comfort of the great majority of the people during the long hot summer. The contestants are the Savannah Ice Delivery Company on one side and the Savannah Brewing Company, and Mr. George Meyer on the other. The news has been circulated among all the retail beer dealers that the ice company will have several carloads of beer on hand next week, which it will dispose of at $1 a keg, just half the present price. It is understood the beer will be brought from Mobile, where the Central Ice Company, which controls tbe Gorrie Ice Company, also controls a brewery. NAVAL 8TORES MARKETS.
