J-The reports of correspondents of . the Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin, Issued by the North Carolina Expe riment Station and State Weather Service, for the week ending Friday, May 15th, 1891, show that more favorable conditions have prevailed over the greater part of the State; during the past few days. The weather continued very warm and dry until the evening of the 12th, when a general rain set ; in, which continued until Saturday. This has broken the drought which had pre vailed since April 23d, and has great ly improved most crops. Unfortu ijitely the rain was accompanied by such "cool weather as 'i to retard growth. Warmth is greatly needed. In portions of the Central and West ern Districts the rainfall was heavy enough to do some damage to cot ijpn. Transplanting tobacco is in progress. On the" evening of the 12th a severe hail-storm occurred in the south-eastern part of the West ern District, especially over the east ern half of Gaston county, and the ientral part of Mecklenburg county, extending down into Union and Anson counties. It was particularly heavy . at Charlotte, andt did great damage to crops over all the region covered. ... ; - ; ; : ' ,j Eastern- District.

A Liberal Deolaton Ahout Duties on . Wearlnn Apparel. ; Ntviv York Tribune. There has long been a difference of opinion in the Customs service, here and elsewhere over , paragraph No. 752 of the free list of the new tariff law, which reads: "Wearing apparel and other personal, effects (not merchandise) of persons arriv ing in the "United States ; but this exemption shall not be held' to in clude articles not actually In use and necessary and appropriate for the use of such persons for the purposes of their journey and present com fort and. convenience, or which are -intended for any other person or persons, or for sale," etc. Collector Erhardt virtually de cided yesterday in releasing certain goods seized in alleged violation of the law that , there was nothing in the act which contravened the Astor decision. ' The case, was that in which two bonnets and several dresses had been seized. There was a disposition among some of the officers of the Customs service here to interpret jhe Jaw so literally that many goods were seized in consequence and many complaints were made to the Collec tor. Conflictng - views and the .in troduction of other .issues involved the whole matter in a technical muddle difficult for a layman to un derstand. But this , decision will establish a rule which will enable Customs officers fo proceed clearly and understandingly. : . The Astor decision roac oriupn Associate Justice Blatchford, of the supreme uourt, who held that Con gress did not intend to limit the words "wearing . apparel in actual use" to the wearing apparel on the person at the time: An article rf wearing apparel bought for use, and appropriatea ana set apart to be us ed, by being placed in with or as a part of what is called a nerennal wardrode, is in common parlance in actual use. ' Collector Erhardt holds that this decision applies equally to the present iaw. OTer r Wins.

A Lance Gathering- Openin g Proceedings -umoers Appointed Tumultuous Scenes -A Committee Appointed to Prepare t Bjr Telegraph to the Morning Star Cincinnati, May 10. At exactly 2 p. m., the hour set for the assembling of the National Union Conference, a sten torian voiced delegate, with a' big red, white and blue badee, advanced. to the front of the stage in Music Hall and ac companied by the great organ led the audience , in singing the anthem "My country 'tis of thee," and the" Conven tion, probably the most picturesque and largest of its kind known in American history was in full swing. At tlw conclusion of the song some enthusiastic admirers of Congressman Simpson among the Kansas dele gates, gave three rousing cheers for him as he appeared among them and took a seat. Rev. D.- T. Foster, of Cincinnati, now invoked the Throne of Grace, beseeching victory against the powers of evil in the name of the Fatherhood of God and Brother hood of Man. The delegates repeated with him the Lord's Prayer. Captain C. A, Power, of Indiana, then read the official call for the Con ference, and requested the various or ganizations therein named to rise as their names were called, which was done; applause greeting the appearance of ex-Federal and Confederate soldiers, also the Farmers' Alliance, which showed great strength. Next came the Citizens' Alliance, and Knights of Labor, the Colored Farmers' Alliance, which Power stated were a million strong and ever ready to do bat tle. Hearty applause greeted each. There was a cheer when the words "National Union Conference," were read. , Right Moyer, of Kansas, then readthe supplemental call, issued from Topeka in February last. At this juncture Hon. Chas. E. Cun ningham, of Arkansas, was introduced as temporary chairman, the formality of an election being dispensed with. He called attention of the Convention to two lovers who so warmly discussed what would be the name of their first infant that the quarrel resulted in break ing off the engagement and there was no infant to name. Great laughter. Chairman Cunningham closed with a fervid appeal for harmony. An Alliance song to the tune of "John Brown's Body," was the next feature of the proceedings and Chair man Cunningham in trying- to quiet the cheering that followed discovered that the gavel which had been provided for him was a massive iron hammer. He used it with vigorous effect, much to the amusement of the delegates. O. B. Jones, of Missouri, was chosen temporary secretary, W. H. Robb, of Iowa, and G. F. Washburne, of Massa chusetts, were made assistant secreta ries, S. W. Chase, of Kansas, was se lected for sergeant-at-arms, and E. E. Eaton, of Ohio, and Lewis Belser, of Nebraska, assistants. A lively wrangle here ensued as to whether States be called for members of the committees or that the various national organiza tions named in the call make nomina tions of committeemen. Oakland, of California, led the fight against the first plan, but was finally beaten after the Conference had mixed itself in a seem ingly inextricable tangle of amend ments, points ol order and questions ot privilege.. AtU.20 p. m., the. Convention had only completed, one of its committee, that on credentials. The great size of the hall and the large number of dele gates about 1,500 with several speak ers at times simultaneously occupying the floor, made progress very slow, but the good nature and persistence of both delegates and 2,500 spectators present, seemed inexhaustible, and the work went on with wonderfully few people leaving the hall. The first real excitement in the Con vention was caused by Ignatius Don nelly, of Minnesota. He did it with a harmless little motion, that to save time the appointment of committeemen by each State be completed in a lump, each State naming all of its committeemen at once, including members of the Nation al Committee. Instantly there was an uproar, and dozens of delegates were on their feet, shouting for a chance to strike the first blow in the fight for or against the immediate organization of the Na tional Third Party. If Donnelly's mo tion was carried the Convention would be impliedly committed thereby to im mediate organization, and all hope of postponing such action would be thrown to the winds. . ; ! General J. B. Weaver, of Iowa, was the individual whose lungs proved strongest. Striding down the aisle his white mustache quivering with pug nacity he pointed his long arm at Don nelly and hotly denounced the latter's proposition as an attempt to pledge the Convention ob the sly to most vital action without one word of discussion. WhenJDonnelly finally got a chance to edge in a word of reply, his smooth shaven, clear-cut countenance was flushed with passion. He disclaimed any intention to take an undue advan tage. ' . ;. Again there was a prolonged hubbub, ended at last by Chairman Cunning ham dexterously putting off for the time being the impending struggle by declaring Donnelly's motion out of order. - While the skirmish was in progress, not a few bets were offered among the spectators that the Convention would get no further, but would split at the very outset. A motion, to adjourn un til 7 p. m. did not prevail, and the fol lowing names were adopted as mem bers of the Committee on Resolu tions, with instructions to go into session immediately -and prepare the Convention's platform: Arkansas, J. O. Bush; California, H. E. Dillon; Colorado, E. G. Curtis; Connecticut, Robt. Shine; South Dakota. C. M. Fee; District of Columbia, D. A. Bland; Georgia, D. C, Post; Illinois, Jas. M.

Soenea of Enthusiasm National Com mittee Appointed Adjournment. By Telegraph to the Morning Star... ! Cincinnati; May 20.-In the National Union Convention the; Committee on! resolutions reported the following plat form. - U.j-v.i That in view of the great social, in4 dustnal and economical revolution now dawning on the civilized world and the new and living issues confronting the American people, we .believe that the time has arrived for crystalization of po-i litical relorm of the forces of ou coun4 try, and the formation of what should be known as the People's Party of the United States of America. j . Second. That we most heartily en dorse the demands of the platforms as adopted at St. Louis, Missouri, in 1889; Ocala, Florida, in 11890, and Omaha, Nebraska, in 1891, bf the industrial or ganizations, j " j Third. That we urge the attendance of all progressive organizations in at tending the Conference called for Feb ruary 22, 1892, by six of the leading re form organizations. ; Fourth. That a National Central Com mittee be appointed by this Conference to be composed of a chairman to be AT . 1 w I 1 i c . . delicti uy mis ooay, ana oi mree mem bers from each State represented, to be hamed by each State delegation. ; i ; Fifth. That this Central.Committee snail represent this body, attend the National Conference, on February J22, 1892, and if possible unite with that and all other reform: organizations there assembled. If no satisfactory arrange ment, can be .effected this committee shall call a National Convention j not later than June 1st, 1892, for the purpose of nominating candidates for President and Vice President. I i Sixth. That members of the Central Committee for each; State where there is no independent political organization, conduct an active System of political agitation of their respective States.' Additional resolutions, not a part' of the platform, were presented. jThey recommended favorable consideration of universal suffrage, demanded! that treasury notes paid soldiers be made equivalent to coin, condemn the action ot the World's FairCommittee with reference to wages, j The name of the new party "People's Party of the United States" elicited a magnificent outburst of applause, and .as each plank was read the cheering was renewed so frequently that the great hall seemed to reverberate continuously. When the resolutions recommending universal suffrage to; favorable consider ation and demanding payment of boun ties on a gold basis were read, the for mer met with- a rather chilly reception, but the latter was. roundly cheered. Schilling announced that the pension plank was left to the soldier member on the committee, with an inquiry whether it was satisfactory, and on his acquies cence it was adopted unanimously. Davis of Texas, a .... lank ' six footer in a light suitj who had electrified the ! convention! during the Downally speech by a long weird hoop of exultation,! was conducted to the platform and to the intense! delight of the Convention repeated the unearth ly Indian-like trill, j 1 hen he announc ed himself! as an ex-Coniederate and declared himself for the platform, every pianK ana every resolution. An extraordinary j spectacle followed. Wadswell of Indiana, an ex-Union sold ier, rushed up to jthe ex-Confederate Davis in full view pf the Convention, and the two one-time mortal foes grasped .hands. j R. W. Humphrey of Texas, orcranizer of the Colored Alliance, seized jwith the inspiration of the movement, suddenly joined the ex-seldiers and amid a perfect cyclone of enthusiasm, a delegate moved the adoption: of the platform as read. The convention went - wild, the delegates mounting the tables and chairs, shouting and yelling like Cam anches. A portion of the convention. in thunderous chorus, sang to the tuue of "Good-bye, My Lover, Good-bye," the words, "Goodbve, Old! Parties. Good-bye," and thei the Doxology. In the forest of flags and State ban ners that had gathered with their bear ers around the trioj the Kansas man. on the shoulders jof two colleagues standing on chairs, raised the Kansas banner and held It aloft above all others. The tumult, surpassing in its remark able suddenness and vigor anything that had previously haken place in the con vention, lasted fully a quarter of an hour, till it ceased from sheer exhaustion of the delegates. Several delegates second ed adoption of the report, one; suggest ing that it be by a rising votej "Ques tion ! Question ! " came from1 all parts of the hall, but the pent-up enthusiasm had to have vent and one after another of the orators relieved themselves. : The platform proper, exclusive of the resolutions, was then adopted by a rising vote. Delegate Miller, of California, threw in a bone of contention by offering this resolution: "Resolved, that we.favor abolition of the liquor traffic" Con fusion became worse confounded. Fiftv orators were clamoring for recognition, but the first to succeed was Schilling, of Wisconsin. He opposed discussion of the question of prohibition at this time. Schilling declared that the resolution proposed by Miller had been fully con sidered and voted down by' the com mittee on platform. To spring .it now was plainly throwing a firebrand into the convention, and in his opinion it was a deliberate attempt to cause a split in the party. The prohibition amendment was over whelmingly defeated. I The resolutions Were then adopted with only three dissenting votes. . ...,. After the recess the roll of names was called for members of the National Committee, the convention! adopting the innovation of appointing three mem bers from each State, instead of one member, as the old parties have done. Alliance Congressman J. G. Otis, of Kansas, nominated H. E. Taubeneck, of Illinois, as chairman of the National Executive Committee. There was a great outburst of cheers when Taube neck s name was mentioned.! Taubeneck was chosen by acclama tion. . I Loud calls for Taubeneck finally brought that gentleman to the rostrum. where he made a brief but verv manlv 4 and modest speech, thanking the dele gates. In conclusion, he said they were . . . i - 1 standing on the brink of a conflict be tween capital and labor, and the longer the conflict was postponed the worse it would be. "Our politicians," said he, might as well try to stop a cyclone or the movements of stars as to evade this issue." . ! A few moments of confused prepara tion for adjournment sine die .ensued, then the Chairman's gavel fell, and the first convention of the People's Party of the United States had passed into history. " j LUMBER DEALERS. The Boycott Declared Off in New Tork. Br Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, May 20i -The boycott which was declared by Labor Unions against certain lumber dealers in this city was declared, off last night, and sale and delivery of lumber in this city, which was stopped by lumber dealers because of the boycott, was resumed to day. This is regarded as a complete victory for the Lumber Dealers' Associ ation, and it was frankly admitted to be so last night by the Board of Delegates. CHICAGO MARKET REVIEW. Fluctuations in Frioea of Grain and TroTiston&t -- - By Telegraph to the Moraine Star. Chicago, May 20. Copious .rains were reported throughout . the wheat. corn and oat belt, with more promised; and r tears of short crops on account bf drought were .dissipated at least for the present. As a consequence the markets all opened weak and operators on the Bear side proceeded to take . their pro- iiis, mougn tne mancea recession! in prices was less due to their efforts than to the desire on the part -of holders of long property to market their stuff. To add to the discomfort of holders receipts at all points were more liberah Foreign markets were lower andto-day's steam ers took out heavy shipments of gold. Buying against "Puts" early absorbed a large quantity of. wheat, that had been thrown " overboard at the start on stop-loss orders. After this buying was over the market' again broke badly. Several of the large shorts bought on this break and caused a respectable rally. ' July opened at 101J102 ;f fluc tuated between those figures and 100. andclosed weakat lOO.- . ' i Corn was weak from the start. There was heavy and general selling. Rains in the corn belt and weakness in wheat were the main causes to sell; prices de clined throughout the session without material reaction, July going from 67J 58 at the opening to 56 at the close. t. Oats were not as Weak relatively as corn, but rains nevertheless weakened somewhat the position of holders. July opened at 4546, sold to 46i and off to 45. . The' improved outlook for the corn crop materially weakened provisions,and large receipts of hogs and general de sire to raid by heavy operators helped the decline along. July pork shows a loss for the day compared with yester day's close of 32c; lard of 12c, and riDs qi a like amount. SOUTH CAROLINA TRAGEDIES. Suicide of a Prominent Citizen of Green ville A Young Man Fatally Stabbed. 'By Telegraph to the Moraine Star. Greenville, S. C, May 19. Samuel Pickle, a prominent citizen f this city, cut his throat with a pocket-knife last night, and will probably die of the wound. He is a dealer in horses, and during the last summer doctored horses which had been bitten by mad-dogs, and which afterward died of hydro phobia. Pickle became possessed with the idea that he nad hydro phobia, and although he had no symptoms of that disease, the thought preyed on him so that in a moment of extreme depression he cut his throat to escape the horrors of death from it. . J. S. Pfaule Marshall, a prominent young man of this city and a member of one of the leading families of the State, was stabbed here last night by W. B Jennings, a youth of 18 years. Marshall's wound is very serious and perhaps fatal. The stabbing resulted from an alterca tion which began in a joke. Jennings is in jail. ... " , . A RALEIGH SENSATION.

The Sun's cot ton circular says: ' Futures opened Tower and further de clined, closing quiet and steady at 5 to 7 points decline from yesterday's quota tions. Business at Liverpool, which was suspended Friday last for the Whitsun tide holidays, was resumed this morning, and if the bulls expected comfort from that market they were disappointed, for the slightly stronger opening was not maintained. Weather reports from the South were better, with the temperature higher, and there were general fains. Many of the bulls became discouraged and unloaded quite freely. There was also some disposition to increase the short interest,, and the final prices were, about the lowest of the day. Spot cot ton was dull and weak. FATAL ACCIDENT.

Some physicians pronounced it -incurable. It had di minished about one third the size of the other, and, I was m a hopeless condition After trying all kinds of remedies and spending hundreds of dollars, from which I got no relief whatever, 1 was persuaded to try your CimcuRA Remedies, and the result was as fol lows: After three days I noticed decided change- -for the better, and at the end of two months 1 Was completely cured. My flesh was purified, and ' the bone (which had been exposed for over a year) got sound. The flesh began to grow, and to-dsy, and for ' nearly two years, my Teg is as well as ever it was, sound in every respect, and not a sign of disease to be een. . Rev. S. G.
