A Little of It Asked For by a Hall
way company.
Washington, Jan. 14. There was an
outcropping of tariff this morning in the
House during the hearing before the
committee on Ways and Means on the
bill which came up concerning the gov
ernment and the Chicago and St. Louis
Electric Railway company represented
by Dr. Wellington Adams. He urged the
passage ot a bill admitting, Iree 01 duty,
electrical apparatus and steel rails.
He advanced the argument that this
should be done to foster enterprise, and
cited instances where Congress had done
so in the past.
Ihis led Mr. turner, ucmocrat, to
remark that this miirht then be consid
ered as an application of the idea of
building up new industries on prineipels
ot tree trade.
Reed, who catneju late, when told what
the hearing was about, observed that i'
corporations did not desire to buy their
material in this country they ought not
to build here.
The militia bill was laid aside 111 the
House without final action and the house
proceed to consideration of the measures
cnllel up by the committee on Indian
atlairs.

opera bouse last night to protest against
the revolutiouary action of the Populists
in organizing the House, has had a"pcr-
cct.tible eff'.-ct in cooling the ardor of the
hot heads. The Populists also held a
meet in ir at which Simpson, Clemens and
others tried to brace up those who show
signsof being weakkneed.butitisevideat
the Populists ore looking lorawayto get
out of their dilemma gracefully. It is
common talk that Governor Leweling
has regretted his action in recognizing
the Populist house, for he tailed to send

no signs that he intends to do so.

Anionic the Poor People of the
Cltv.
Last night was the coldest Asheville
has bud this winter. There was very
little wind blowing, which fact mode the
night feel less bitter than it would other
wise have been. During the night the
mercury fell as low as 2 degrees below
zero. The weather has greatly modera
ted today, the mercury having risen per
haps 30 degrees since 1) o'clock.
There is considerable suffering among
the poor people of the city, white as well
as colored, caused by tbe intense cold.
Every case of suffering that has
been reported has been faithfully
looked after by that noble body of
Immune people, the Flower Mission,
or. more properly, the Associated
Charity. Its workers have been tireless
in their etturts to alleviate tue pangs ol
privation in every portion ot the city,
and. by the help of the eood people of
Asheville, who are ever ready to assist
in any good work when called upon, an
almost incomprehensible amount of good
has been done. Those who desire to
make contributions for this work are
asked to make their gifts to the Asso
eiated Charity, and not to individuals.
The oreamzation named covers the en
tire city find knows almost e very case of
want, and is better able to judiciously dis
tribute the necessaries ol lite among
those most needing them.
The coal companies ot tbe city are kept
busv suiiDlvimr orders: in tact, it is al
most impossible to get teams sufficient
to deliver the coal to consumers. There
is an abundance on hand, and there is
no danger of a coal famine. Prices have

and to state that many needy cases have
been materially assisted. Wood and
coal, provisions and clothing have been
given to many deserving families who
never before have been obliged to call on
us for help; but now that work on tbe
streets is impracticable, numbers of men
are thrown out ot employment.
Yesterday afternoon tbe Central ottice
presented a busy scene, as the President
Treasurer, and several members ot the
Associated Charity were arranging and
distributing the warm clothing lately
sent to the office.
This is the time to dispose of cast-on
