To-day the increased receipts at interior towns led to something of a break in values, but the close was steady.

The average journeyman compensation per day in the princi pal mechanical pursuits of the State ii4 as follows: Blacksmiths, $1.38; . brickmasons, $1.95; carpenters, $1.40; machinists, $2 06; millwrights, $2.10; painters, $1.43; printers, $1.44; and wheelwrights, $1.50. While the above rate of compensation is not as high as in some other States the Com missioner makes special mention oL the fact that the number owning homes accumulating is larger than in States where a higher rate of compensation prevails. The per centage of those owning homes is 59; percentage - accumulating from wages. 39: uercentase runniner in -debt for living expenses, 20. This -ifconsidered a creditable, showing and speaks well for the thrift and 'economy of the mechamos of the 'State with the compensation received. l ne average wages paid in casn is '75 per cent, and in merchandise 25 mi per cent. The commissioner does .not like the latter system and again condemDB it. The average price of board is $9.05 :a month. This furnishes a pretty accurate idea of the cost of living. .1 he average amount of rent paid for dwelling is $42.50. " -.. . AMERICAS DOCUMENTS - FOR EIQN ARCH I VES. IN New York Times, Mr. Benjamin Franklin Stevens of London bas for many years been compiling a comprehensive index of the papers in the archives and col lections of England, France, Spain, and Holland, which bear on the his tory of the American Revolution. He has now enlarged : the scope of his work to include a new projeot. This is nothing less than the prodac- Hon in facsimile of the most impor tant manuscripts relating to America to be found in those archives, for the period which extends from 1763, -when the discontent in the oolonies 'first began to take form, to 1783, - when the independence of the Uni ted States was recognized by the '.Peace ef Paris. The manuscripts are .very nnmerous and very much scat' tered. Most of them have never been published in any form. To make an index of tbem is in itself an impor tant work, and one which, if well done, will refleot great credit on Mr. Stevens. But by furnishing scholars with exact reproductions of original document?, produoed by photo-lith ography or by kindred processes, on the scale now proposed, he may hope to begin a new epoch tn historical in vestigation.

Wahihgtoh," Jan. 2 There was more than a quorum of Senators present when the chaplain delivered his opening prayer after the holiday recess. Among the petitions and memorials pre sented ana referred were the following: , By Mr. Edmunds, from the branch of the Woman's Relief Board of Salt Lake Otty, remonstrating against any action of Congress looking to the admission of Utah as a State. ' Mr. Edmunds said he was happy to think that there was not much danger of any such action at this session. By Mr. Chandler, from Midway, 8. C , asking Congress to take steps to amend or abolish State laws of registration affecting the right of citizens to vote for federal of ficers. - - , The Senate then took up the tariff bill. Mr. Allison going back to paragraph 184, aS to Chains, moved to amend it by redu cing the raKfmSKSSr-attumthree- eighths of one Inch in diameter, from cents per pound, lie stated tbat this was the rate under the existing law. ' Mr. Vance asked whether the cronosed reduction inofodad trace chains; andrhsj J ) Mr. Allison . conceded : that It did, and said tnat tbe - equivalent ad valorem rate was 44 87 per cent, at the present price. air. vanoe moved to amend tne amend ment by making the rate thirty per cent ad valorem, and he read letters from New York importing houses, stating that the present rate (2 centa per pound) had been Sractically prohibitory for many years, r. Vance's amendment was rejected- yeas 19, nays 81 and Mr. Allison's amend ment was agreed to, without division. ine bill was then taken np at tne point where It had been left when last before the Senate (Schedule L "cotton manufactures"). the question being on the amendment of-' fered by Mr. VeBt to reduce the duty on cotton thread, yarn, warps, etc., valued at not exceeding 28 cents per pound, f rum 10 cents per pound to 85 per cent, ad valorem. Mr. Vest repeated the statement made by him before the recess, that.the effect of the changes proposed by the substitute as to increase the duty on all higher priced cotton raDrics, Doth as to threads, which were tne raw material of the manufacturers, and as to cotton cloth in a finished condition. He had made that statement on a cursory ex amination, but an examination during the recess had confirmed him in what he then stated. Like the Eastern Queen, dazzled by the glories of Solomon, the baif had not been told. Oa examining the cotton sche dule he found that the artistic hand of his friend from Rhode Island (Aldricb).waa ev ident in almost every line. He referred to the increase in the cotton schedule in ths tariff bill of 1883, and said that that wa the act of the conference committee withe out a vote on it by either house. It was a notorious fact, he said, that the cotton man ufacturers of the country were in a more prosperous condition to-day than anv other clasa of manufacturers in the United States. Mr. Aldrich denied the statement that the conference committee la 1883 had in creased the rates on cotton manufactures, and declared that the reductions on cotton manufactures made in the tariff bill of 1883 ranged from 40 to 60 per cent. The action or the Conference Committee on the act of 1883 was discussed at consid erable length by Messrs. Vest, Aldrich, Allison and Vance. Mr. Stewart said that he found the tariff question so intimately connected with the -question of money, that he was unable to separate the two. He would, therefore, consider them briefly in connection with each other. He therefore proceeded to read a speech on the subject of silver coinage. At the close of Mr. Stewart a speech. Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, read from the testi mony or a cotton manufacturer in Ueorgla, Mr. Wm. a..' Young, ahowing that his mills had been earning average dividends of 17 per cent since 1870; that he was "an anti-tariff man,' dyed in the wool; that the tariff was of no advantage to him. and that if he were to make the same class of course cotton goods that are sold in England, he could sell them in England and make a good profit on them. Mr. uoar asked what, u that were true. became of the claim that the tariff was put ting enormous profits into the pockets of cotton manufacturers f Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, " reminded Mr. Hoar that "one swallow does not make a summer." He could not account lor the finance committee insisting on a rate of 21 per cent a yard on cotton goods, when manufacturers did not need protection, ex cept on the principle embraced in tho reply or another witness a manufacturer or grain bags who said ha did not ask to have burlaps, (raw material), put on the free list, lest grain bags might be put on the free list also. Mr. Aldrich suggested that the reason why Southern cotton mills paid such iarge dividends was that some of tbem did not pay more than two-thirds of the wages paid to similar operatives in New England. Mr. Jones stated in reply that the testi mony showed that Southern operatives were content with their wsges and did not go on strikes, while strikes were common in New England. Mr. Aldrich said he did not know 01 an; cotton mill strikes in Rhode Island in five years, and that there had been very few strikes there in a generation. Mr. Jones proceeded to state some points from Consul Schoonhof 'a report as to the comparative cost of weavers' labor in England, Switzerland and America, to show that the labor cost was greater in England than in the United States.. He was proceeding to discuss the question of tin plate when he was informed by Mr. Allison that the Finance Committee hoped to be able to present some provision on that subject in a few days. Mr. tiawley said, in response to Mr. Jones, that one of the studies of American statesman to-day was how, to keep the country from being absolutely flooded by people who were coming here from places where they got higher wages and better food- As to the profits of cotton mills in the South, it was a mon strous mistake to suggest that they were a fair criterion of the Droflts of general man uractunng. Referring to Mr. vest's re marks as to tho poverty of New England operatives, Mr. Hawley said he did not care who said that they did not save money, he knew better. : Mr. Saulabury argued against the policy of taxing consumers of the whole country tor tne purpose 01 enabling operatives 01 New England to accumulate money in savings banks. Mr. Morrill asked Mr. Saulsbury if he was not aware that the census, every time that it was taken for the last thirty years, showed that the people of Illinois, Kansas, Iowa. Missouri, Florida, Alabama and Georgia, have been exceeding in tneir an nual increase of wealth even New England. Finally the bill was laid aside without action on the pending amendment. The presiding omcer laid oerore the Senate a message from the President in regard to correspondence on the subject of the treaty with China, that was pending last September. The reading of the mes sage was interrupted by Mr. Sherman, who suggested tbat it be referred to an execu tive session. The presiding officer said that it had keen sent to the Senate in legis lative session, but that it would be laid on the table for further examination. Adjourned. ' - HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. There' were not "more than seventy-five members In attendance when Speaker Car lisle called the House to-order at noon to day. After tne reaaing 01 me journal tne Speaker proceeded to call on committees for renorts. but none were submitted.

The House then went into Committee of the Whole on the River and Harbor Ap propriation bill. Mr. Crisp, of Georgia, made an effort to have the appropriation for Savannah har bor increased from $20,000 to $300,000, but hia amendment for this purpose was re jected. . . ,. - ', ) ;.;-r!- -,V A. Mr. Sowden; of Pennsylvania, made an attack upon the bill as being extravagant and wasteful, and directed his criticism es pecially against improvements in Texas. This brought a rejoinder from Messrs. Cain and Stewart, of Texas.- Mr. Cain, moved to increase the appro priation for Aranzas-Pass from $85,000 to $1,470,000.- Rejected. '1 Mr. Wheeler, of Alabama, expressed himself as in favor of liberal expenditures for River and Harbor improvements. , . Mr. Grain made various endeavors to in crease the appropriations for Aranzas Pass, Sabine Pass and Galveston harbor, but, notwithstanding the persistency of his ef forts, and the emphasis with which he dwelt upon the Importance of his proposi tions, he was in every case voted down. Mr. Cutcheon, of Michigan, made an ef fort to secure an increase of the appropria tion for the-barbor of refuge at Portage Lake, and would have been successful had not Mr. Cheadlr, of Indiana, interjected a point of "no quorum.

Official comma n ications issued this evening state tbat the Emperor refrained from special reference to the political situation. Bismarck's attack or neuralgic gout is abating, but he is unable to fix a date for coming to Berlin . He will certainly not be abie either to be present at the opening of the Landtag or to participate in the colonial debates in the Reichstag. The Emperor and Empress sent Bismarck costly Christ mas gifts, the Emperor, in a long auto graph letter, expressing gratitude for Bis marck's services and hopes for bis early re covery. The Landtag will be opened by the Em peror. The session will be an interesting one. The government measures include bills dealing with police administration in the Eastern provinces, clerical education in Posen, and the extension of railways on the eastern frontier.

The White House has seliom if ever presented a more brilliant spfcjtaclo than it did to-day on the occasion of the President's New Year's re ception. Special pains were taken with the decorations, and the beautiful suite of parlors where the reception was held never appeared to better advantage. There was a profusion of flowers and ' plants, and they were distributed with charming effect! The choicest flowers were placed in the Blue Parlor, where ; the receiving paity stood, but the most elaborate flora, decorations were in the East Room, where the visitors spent a few minutes in social eon verse after having paid their respects. The mantels were banked with bright hued flowers, and festoons of grsses and ferns were suspended from the large chandeliers. Tall palms were placed in the window re cesses and in the corners, and tropical plants of all kinds lined the corridor run ning through the centre of the house. " The large divan in the East Room was orna mented with a beautiful vase, containing a large palm of different hues. A part of the lower floor was illuminated by gas, but the sunlight was given full play : in ,the East Room. -The weather was bright," sunshiny and Cool, and in fact every thing was most auspicious. .-..llj (The reception lgan at-ir o'clock," at which hour the receiving party, descended the stairs and took their places in' the .Blue farior. : As they appeared in fright the Marine Band, which was stationed in the main hall, started "Hail to the Chief," and continued playing it un til the party had taken their positions. A passage way was made for them through the crowd that had already gathered in the house. They came in the following prder: Col. Wilson and Lieut. DuValU of the Army: the President and Miss Bayard; Se cretary Bayard and Mrs. Cleveland; Secre tary Fairchild and Mrs. Whitney; Secre tary Endicottand Mrs. Fairchild; Secre tary Whitney and Mrs. Dickinson; and Se cretary Vilas and Postmaster General Dick inson. They took their places with the' f resident and Mrs. Cleveland first in lice, and then Miss Bayard, Mrs. Fairchild, Mrs. Whitney and Mrs. Dickinson in the order named. Grouped behind them were a number of invited guests, including Mrs. Folsem, Miss Mary Hastings, .

The reception proper began with the presentation of the members of the Diplo matic Corps. They were all in full court dress, many of which were resplendent with rich jewels and gold lace. The most striking costumes were tboee worn by representatives of China," Russia, France and Corea. The new Persian Minister, however, attracted tho most attention. He is the first representative of that - country accredited to the United States. The column was beaded by Count Fava, Italian Minister, the oldest in point of residence at this Capital of those in at tendance. It was explained tbat Mr. Preston, Hay- tiau Minister, who is dean of the corps,was prevented from taking his accustomed place at the head of the line by reason of pressing business, which required his pres ence in Hew xorc. Secretary Bayard presented the diplo mats to the President and Mrs. Cleveland, and then departed to his residence to pre side at a breakfast given in their honor, He left the White House in company with his daughter. Col. Wilson and Lieut. Du- Vall then took places near the President and Mrs. Cleveland and introduced an wno followed j The Justices of the Supreme Court, headed by Chief Justica Fuller, came first, and were followed in rapid succession by the Justices of the Court of Claims and the Judiciary of the District of Columbia. Nearly all the Judges were in attendance. The next feature of the reception, the Army and Navy, was probably the most interesting of all. The Army officers were first presented. "The recent affliction in the family of Major General Schofield, com manding the Army, prevented his presence, and the line was headed by Brigadier lien- eral Uagner (retired), and Urlganler lien era! Benet, Chief of Ordnance, senior rank ing officers in the city. Nearly all ot the officers stationed in this vicinity were present, and of course all were in full uni form. Among those in line were Generals Drum, Kelton, MacFeely, Baird, Mc Keiver and many younger officers who have made records in campaigns against the Indians. The column of naval 0 ulcers was beaded by Admiral Porter and Rear Admiral ; Call Jouelt, Rear Admiral Rus sell, and Commodore Walker Sicard Mel villa. Col. McAwley occupied a place near the head of the line. Senators and representatives were asv signed a place ahead of the Army and Navy, but they were nearly all late and took places wherever most convenient.

The Congressional delegation was fol lowed closely by the Commissioners of the District Ot Columella.. officers 01 the Smith' sonian Institute and of all the Eecutive De partments. The close of the official line was composed of the veterans of the war of 1840, the Grand Army of the republic, and members of the Oldest inhabitants Associa tion. 1 So far the reception had occupied over an hour and a half, and the President and Mrs. Cleveland had kept up a constant hand shaking. The receptioa was how ever about half over at 13.80 o'clock, when the outer doors were thrown open and the general public was admitted. The first comers of the vast crowd had taken places at the outer gates before iu o dock. The beautiful weather drew many peo ple, and it is thought that the attendance was larger than on any similar occasion during the present administration. The line formed at the western gate three or four deep, and stretched hundreds of yards away past the Treasury building .and down loth street.

' If the people of this country "can once be made folly to realize that all their substance is necessarily the pro duct of their own labor and rightlyj oeionss to those who produce it in the proportion of their share in the processes of prod action, they will enforce a radical change in the ac tion of the government,' which now devotes itself so largely to interfer ing with the distribution of the pro- uuct of the people's labor. As an abstract prinoiple it may be asserted that no government has the 'moral right to take from one citizen or class of citizens to give to another, and no right to take from the people for its own use more than is needed for le gitimate pnblio purposes. Of course it cannot do without the nominal consent of the people themselves, se cured by one means or another, bnt when the people dearly understand their own interests this policy ' of "robbine Peter to Day Paul" will no longer be permitted. - . v jJivery dollar that goes into the ational Treasury is drawn from the production of the people, is a part of what they have produced by their iauyr, una ino exouBe ior taxing id is the necessity for maintaining the Government for-tke protection of the people and their interests. In so iar as it is used for ourpoBes which are not for the common benefit and gen eral welfare it is a waste of the peo ple's substanoe and the taking of it is without justification. No citizen is exempt from paying his share to the public revenue, and under our system of indirect taxation no man can escape the exaction, and every man is entitled to feel the assurance that what ho contributes is as much tor bis own benefit as that of any one else. ILLINOIS. The a Railroad Troubles Another Strike Threatened. By Telegraph .to 'the Horning Star. Chicago, Jan. 2. The Daily News says: Whetner the country will expens once the greatest railroad strike in the his tory of modern industrial struggles be tween capital and labor, will depend upon the meeting to be held at the general offices ot the Chicago. Burlington Uuincy Kail. road to-morrow. Chairman Cavenor, of the Grievance Committee of Nine, this morning gave the first hint a very decided one of tho diaastrovs consequences of the refusal of 'Q" officials to accept the pro position of the Brotherhood. "We have consulted the best legal authority." said Mr. Cavenor. and know just what we can do and obey the law, and we are not afraid of any state prisons, county jaila or con spiracy laws. I say it in all seriousness. that it the u road does not agree to our reasonable proposition, the Brotherhood will at otice commence the struggle, and it will never surrender, we Know lust what our resources are, and the country far and wide will bear from ua in a very decided way if the meeting to-morrow does not n Eultia harmony. What wilkthe Brotherhood do? "That I am not prepared to say: but as I said it will be as radical a move as was evet made by a labor organization." It is understood that the counsel em ployed by the Brotherhood is Robert G. Ingereoll. Cavenor is in constant com munication with Chief Arthur and the chairmen of local branches of the order along the different western and Isouth west ern roads, and the instant the decision is given word will be passed along the line. The Journal says on the same subject: "If the statement of 'the company,!that it is operating its lines in a manner satisfactory to itself and its patrons is correct, it has seemingly nothing to gain or lose by such action. Governing officials certainly ex press but little anxiety on the subject. The Brotherhood,- however, is exceedingly anxious for the war to end, in order that the enormous drain upon its treasury may cease and many of the strikers find employ ment." ' MILLERS ASSOCIATION. Two Hundred and Fifty Flour mills to Shut Down. Br Telegraph to the Morning Star. St. Louts, Jan. 2. All the flouring mills in the city, excepting one, closed down to-day under an agreement entered into by the Millers' Association at its late convention at Milwaukee. Tbe exception is the Anchor Mills, which will also shut down as soon as it fills two or three impor tant orders on hand. Under the agreement noted two hundred and fifty mills in the Fall wheat belt will either close down or run on half time during January, . r CLOSED DOWN. Extensive Foundry at Beading, Fa. Dull Trade the Cause. By Telegraph to the Horning Star. Reading, Pa., Jan. 2. The extensive foundry of the Reading Foundry Co.. where large iron pipe for gas and water mains for many of the larger cities are made, finally closed down indefinitely to day, throwing 160 men ont of employment Dull trade is given as the cause for the closing of the works. Goldsboro Argus: The next Legislature will be petitioned to amend the charter of Goldsboro so as to enlarge the corporate territory of the city. Another evidence that Goldsboro is growing. Gas works, water works, a cotton factory, a railroad to Onslow, the A. & N. O. R. R. extension, and possibly a cotton compress, are among Goldsboro's expectances for the good year 1889, on which we enter with all hopefulness and determination this morn ing. ' ' COTTON nAKLffI'.
