GRKAT INTEKMT STILL MAN IFESTED, last: It Is) Believed Now That Free ColnaK Will Carry In the Home Filibustering; nay be Resort ed To. Washington, March 23. Tbe silver debate in the house today showed the intensity of the public interest in that great question which now faces the 52nd congress for a solution and threatens to become a political issue in the presiden tial campaign. The speeches 'were all of & positive character; they are arguments of men who have convictions upon the sides which they respectively represent and who are uncompromising in their declarations of the policy which should be pursued. Gradually the conviction is forcing it self upon the members of tbe house that it is to be no drawn battle; that the issue is one which cannot be averted and that the day is near at hand when the house of representatives must declare on a yea and nay vote us posi tion on the question of free coinage. The gentlemen who pinned their hopes on the chances af a compromise at the last hour by a substitution of a bill pro viding for an international monetary con gress are losing courage today, and even the indomitable Tracy, of New York, concedes that tbe free coinage bill v ill have a clean majority if the final vote is ever reached upon its passage. The free coinage men anticipate that their opponents will resort to filibustering and are prepared to invoke tbe aid ol the committee on rules at the very outset in that event. Tracy announces that the first motion to be made by the opponents of the bill at the conclusion of the debate and before any disposition to filibuster is manifested, will be in the form of a resolution recommitting to tjie coinage committee with mstructions to report a substitute bill providing for an interna tional monetary congress so as to ad just the entire silver problem. If this U defeated all the resource 1 01 parliamen tary rules will then be invoked to tire out the trienus ol the bill and prevent final vote upon its passage. The galleries were crowded when the speaker's gavel rapped the house to or' der at noon today, and there was no abatement ol the great interest mani tested at tbe opening hours of the debate yesterday. The floor and lobbies of the house were well crowded with sfx-mem' bcrs and senators, and on tbe sola in the rear of tbe hall was seated Hon. A. J Warner, well known as one of the fath ers of the free coinage movement. In the galleries were sealed many bankers and financial experts. After some unimportant routine pro ceedings the silver bill was taken up. desire to give notice," said Chairman llland at the opening of the debate, that at 2 o'clock tomorrow 1 shall demand the previous question oa the sil ver bill and the pending amendments. This means that general debate will then close and that a final vote will be taken on the bill and amendments unless its opponents begin a series ol til ibustering tactics. THIRD PARTY CALL. Bain tue Old Parties In Arkansas Arralirned. Littlb Rock, Ark., March 23. The state central committee of the people's party has designated June 21 as the date for tbe state convention. The com mittee has issued the following address To the People of Arkansas : On the 22nd of February last at St Louis 21 organized bodies of producers representing a membership of 500,000 agreed upon a declaration af principle and a plan of co-operation in political matters. This platform demands only simple justice for the men who produce all the wealth of the country and com mends itself to every fair-minded patriot In the face of the most unexampled pro duction of all the necessaries of lile our condition grows worse year by year. The past presents a dtsolate sea strewn with the wreckage ol the fortunes ol our people. The future offers nothing better il we are to trust to our present leader ship. Eight years of republican party rule bankrupted our state; eighteen years ol democratic party rule has resulted in the plunder of the state treasury, tbe convict lease law and the Arkansas force bill disguised as an election law. We appeal to vou as cituens of Arkansas 1 1 1 . j ana patriots, upon your uccision 11c momentous issues ol the pregnant luture- A CRAZV MAN'S CAPITOL. He Takes Possession of the Miss. Isslppl State House. Jackson, Miss., March 23. When the legislature was assembling yesterday, a crazy man named Bryant took posses sion of the state house for an hour, and ran things to suit himself. Several offi cers were called to arrest him, but with a big knife in each hand he defied them, and furously cursed the legislature. . He finally ran down the Steps and into the streets, hundreds of people, includ ing the legislature and state officials flee ing before him. Alter getting out 01 tne crowd, three policemen knocked the crazv man down and landed him in inil. He was recently discharged from the asylum as cured. He will be retuned. Off For Oklahoma. Mkuphis, Tenn., March 23. A meet ing was held last night in Zion ball, by about 2,000 negroes who passed resolu tions condemning the lynching af Moss, Stewart and McDowell on the 9th inst as a foul and unjustifiable murder and outrage. 1 he negoes are leaving this lo cality in large numbers lor Oklahoma and other points, and a gcucral exodus is apprehended. Mills the Man, New Orleans, March 23. Apart from the balloting for United States senator yesterday, the proceeding of both houses were of no general importance. The ballot of seuator resulted as follows: In the senate, for Mills, 37; Wash Jones, 1;J. D. Sayres, 1. In the house, for Mills, 93; Chilton, 3; Culberson, 1; Bar net t Gibbs, 2; J. 11. Bailey, 5. W OStJ HONEV IS IT ? Tbe People'ai Hence It Is) Spent Freely. Washington, March 23. Army and navy officers are always desirous of get ting Washington details, as they have an easy time, their duties being light and congenial and performed in the most luxurious surroundings. There are six assistant adjutant generals, each of whom occupies a large room, beautifully frescoed and luxuriously curtained and carpeted. They are fitted up with elec tric ughtsand call bells and costly toilet arrangements, and each ofikial has a messenger outside bis, door waiting to obey his order. Eveo in tbe private of fice of the secretary of war there are few more luxuries and comforts tnan are en joyed by these minor officers who are ion department duty. One man, who is only a major, has a suite of rooms for bis pri vate occupancy that would nil a down town cabinet minister with envy. It is something of a mystery where all the money comes from to fit up these lux urious quarters, tor they are constantly being remodeled to suit the wnim ofnew occupants. As soon as an order is issued assigning an officer to duty, paint ers, decorators, plumbers.gasritters.elec- tricians, and carpet stretchers are set to work to put the rooms in shape for the new officials, whose duties are purely clerical, and could just as well be per formed by an ordinary clerk. It is a re markable tact that there areas many as sistant adjutant-generals on duty to day as there were during the war, al though there is plenty of work for them to do in the field. CAPRIVI HAS RKSIUNKD. The Emperor May Decide Can't do Without Hliu. He Kekmn, March 23. There is no room for doubt as to tbe resignation of Count Caprivi, although every effort is made in high political circles to keep the facts of the cabinet crisis absolutely secret. Had tbe chancellor not thrown the whole weight M his person ality on the side of the school bill he might have rscaped the embarrassment of his position in the last few days. He I has announced so repeatedly in and out of parliament recently his iidvocacy ol the bill, and has set up his opinions so persistently against the mod- crate advice of bis rival in the cabinet. Dr. Miiiuel, that the emperor's.tendency towurd the course recommended by the latter left him no alternative. It is thought by the best informed poli ticians here that the empeior will not ac cept bis chancellnr's resignation, on the ground that the school uiu, as a purely Prussian matter, is not closely connected Willi Cuprivrs record aschancellor ot the empire. MARRIED IN HASTE Here's Hoping; They'll Never Re. ( pent of It. Charlotte, March 21. (. R. Thomp- son, aged G4 vears, a member of the At lanta police force, was married in this city today to Miss Lydia J. Henry, 22 vears old, daughter of Mr. John Henry, ot Iredell countr. It appears that Policeman Thompson advertised for a wife. The Iredell young lady opened a correspondence with him. They exchanged photographs and ar ranged to meet each other here today. Policeman Thompson arrived on the morning train from Atlanta. They had never met, but as the passengers got out of the train, the people in tbe train yard saw a good looking young lady rush up to a hrst-rate looking man and thro herself into bis arms. It was the first meeting of Mr. Thompson and Miss Henry. Raeigh News and Observer. Ou trait e In Chatham County. Rialto, Chatham Co., March 21" k linn. I of diairuiHed men near here broke into the house of jay Atwater, a worthy young colored man, blindfolded him, t'tA his hntula behind him. and hrutallv whipped and otherwise terribly mal- treated him. It was done because he is a witness in a case . between two white men, and it was intended to drive him off to prevent his evidence. The offenders are known and warrants are out for their arrest. State Chronicle. Left 16,000 In a Bath Room. Chicago, March 20. Senator Bowen of Colorado, became suddenly ill in a Palmer House bathroom, and hastily donning bis clothes went to a drug store. Some hours atterwards he missed $14,- 000 in cash and $3,000 worth of dia monds. Subsequently a buckskin under- vest, which contained ail the valuables, was lound by a negro servant in the bathroom and returned to the owner. N. Y. World. Fined the Judices, Kansas City, March 22.

The Oakland Helubls Sanatorium Has received the following very flatter ing and voluntary notice from the pen of Ut. tlenrv M. rieu, 111 me ew lorn Evangelist: A PLEASANT PLACE TO WINTER IN. Though tbe winter has seeen mild thus far. there is no certainty that it will con tinue so, and many ot our readers are doubtless planning to spend a few months in the south. Asbeville, in Wes tern North Carolina, is lamed for beauty of situation and evenness of climate, and in Asheville tbe most' delightful place of resident for the traveller is certainly the Oakland Heights sanatorium Everything is done in this house which can contribute to the comfort and cheer- lulness ot tbe visitor. No consumptives are admitted, and the visitor is therefore spared that spectacle which wrings the heart ol tne guest 01 almost every soum- ern hotel, of men and women dying from the most dreadful of all diseases. On the other hand, the house is quiet, home like, free from the excitements of a hotel, and theretorejust theplacefor those who are vervous, or who are debilitated by influenza, or suffering from any sort chronic ailment. MAY REJECT THE TREATY NEW BEHRING SEA CORRES PONDENCE. It Was Sent to the Senate Today John W. Foater and Senator Sherman In Consultation With the President on the Subject. Washington, March 23. Among the president's earliest calleisthis morning were John W. Foster, who is assisting him in the Bebring sea negotiations, and Senator Sherman, chairman of tbe senate committee an foreign relations. One of the questions under consideration was the advisability of the prompt transmis sion to the senate of the correspondence that has passed between this country and Great Britain since the 8th inst. in regard to the protection of seal pending the settlement by arbitration of the jur isdictional rights of the United Slates in Bchring sea. It is said that the attitude of Great Britain an this point will have a most important bearing on the senate's action on the pending treatv of arbitration. It is broadly intimated that the implied disposition on the part of Great Britain to resent any interference by this govern ment with vessels flying the English flag engaged in pelagic sealing in Bearing sea would undoubtedly result in the re jection of the treatv in its present form. The correspondence consists of two notes, the first being Lord Salisbury's cabled note of the 9th and tbe reply from the president dated yesterday. Neither of the notes is of great length, and all the correspondence was sent to the sen ate today. The senate at 1 o'clock, on motion of Mr. Sherman, went into executive session presumably on the Behring sea matter. A HARROWING TALE. The Inhabitants of Sandy Mush inteuaely Aiftlated. This morning's Gazette contained a long and harrowing account of the find ing of footprints in the sand on Saudy Mush, at a ford ot the French Broad. The imprint was apparently made by a woman who wore a No. 4 shoe. The trail was iollowed into-lhe bed of the river, where, the Gazette says, the im print of a torm could be seen in the sand This speaks well for tbe quality of tbe Sandy Mash sand but that is neither here nor there. The tact remains that the people in the Sandy Mush bailiwick are much wrought up over the matter. It is learned today from people who are interested in the matter tnai inc woman supposed to have suicided was Annie C. Doyle, of Culpepper, Va. The Gazette says: "ihe only theory that will support itself is that on the evening previousathe train was quite late and that the woman came up on it and she walked Irom Marshall or Alexander, distance of at least five miles to the river where she committed suicide. The woman, presumably, was tired of riding and in order to get a little exer cise just before her taking oft, walked five miles, in the shade 01 evening, 10 get ta this particular spot, which she bad doubtless selected while in a hypnotic state in her far-away home. Developments are anxiously awaited. HITLER WANTS A MEETING. The Day Before th State Conven tion MaJ. Robblu'a Challenge. Rale'ch, N. C, March 21.
