A matter is just now being agitated in Ashryille which, if carried to a successful conclusion, will be one of the best things ct done for the city. It is nothing less' than a movement which has for its ob ject the building of an auditorium. Ashe vilie has lone needed such a building. ne thing that has operated against the citv in securing the annual meetings of irge bodies has been the lack of a structure sufficiently large to aceomo- ate the crowds that would attend these meetings. Kev. R. O. I'carson, the evangelist, is tie of the prime movers in the matter. le believes that if Ashevilie had had an auditorium a few months ago Kev. wight L. Moody would have come here to hold a 10 days' meeting. He went to Charlotte, where there is a large uditonum, and his meeting took thou sands of people to that city. One large gathering is already on "tab" for Aslie- ille lor next ear the meeting of the mericun Pharmaceutical association. nd it is believed t hat others would come here as soon as it weie known that Ashevilie had an auditorium that could be secured for the meet ings. Ashevilie is always attractive to bodies of deleg ates and other things being equal the conventions would come here. One thing Mr. l'earson has in his mind s the holding of Ilible institutes here. le believes he could secure Mr. Moody ml other great divines and Bible stu- icnts. The plan regarding the Ashevilie audi- orium contemplates the erection of a brick building with a capacity of from 500 to 2,500, the budding to be so constructed as admit of its being thrown into one large hull or into a central hall, surrounded by committee rooms. The cost of the building is now figured at about $10,000. The auditorium at Charlotte cost $8,000, the projectors going in debt about $l,000 i" the build- ng. It has been finished IS months and n that time thev have paid $2.U)0 on the debt and paid all running expenses. W hat has been done in Charlotte can ; done here. It is believed that the rection of such a structure here would be a good investment for the stock cotn- anv wm.li it is proposed to organize lor the purpose, as well as a great ad- ertisemeut lor Ashevilie. It is proposed now that work on the audiloriuui will begin next spring. 1 HE Citizen and every citizen ol Aslie- ille hopes to see the plan carried out successfully.

The President has nominated William II. Hornblower of New York to be associate justice of the Supreme court of the United States, vice Illatchford, deceased; and Jas. J. VanAllcn, ol Rhode Island, to be ambas sador extraordinary and plenipotentiary to Italy. Judge Hornblower is a prominent and widely known New York lawyer who has for many years had a very large practice before the Supreme court. He comes of a family of jurists. In stature Mr. Hornblower is small, reminding one very much of the present chief justice of the supreme court. Senator Hill declined to discuss the nominee, hut simply said that the Demo crats of New York would be disappointed. Mr. VanAllcn is one of the connections of the New York Astors, being a son-in-law of Wm. IJ. Astor and the possessor of great wealth by Inheritance, which will enable him to maintain the Boston office of ambassador to Italy with becom ing state.

Last night about 9 o'clock Eugene Curtis, a plumber, was shot and slightly wounded by Harry F. Richmond, Geo. VV. I'ack's driver. The shooting occurred n the corridor of the second flooi of the Carolina house, on North Main street. From the information to be gotten ihout the affair, it seems that Richmond, who boards at the Carolina house, en tered Mr. Curtis' room and demanded that the latter apologize for certain words addressed to him earlier in the dav. Mr. Curtis replied that be had lid nothing that he would apologize tor. At the same time he noticed a pisto n Richmond's hand, and being unarmed and believing that his lite was in danger he sprang toward Richmond and grasped the pistol. In the struggle which lluweu the men got out into the e ndor, where Richmond tired three lines at Mr. Curtis. The first shot struck the latter in tbe left heel, passing through ttiut part of the font, Neither of the other bullets struck Mr, Curtis, who, alter the third shot bad been tired, threw Richmond down the stairway. Mr. C urtis is laid up bv h wound, but it is uot thought that it will he followed by any serious conscnuciiccs Richmond was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Morgan today and taken helore usticej. M. Israel, where he waived ex amination and gave bond in tbc sum ot $100 for his appearance at court. in Wastes on the Great Wheat Partus. St. I'.ui., Sept. 17. The railroads nd over crswded cities have long since ceased sending laborers to the harvest elds of the Northwest. Early in the season there was a scarcity of help, but within a month after this was made known thousands of men from Chicago, the Twin Cities, the mining regions of Michigan, and as far west as Denver, uockcu to Minnesota and the Dakotas. Since then there has been a surplus of help, and as a result the hreshing crews are beginning to tit wages. The first salaries paid veraged about $2 per day, but now they are Irom $1.50 to $1.75. Many threshing machines and threshing rews are Idle, and they oiler in some in tanccs to thresh for one cent a bushel all round. This is a cut of over 50 per cut. Even at this, lessthan three-quart- rs of the men in the fields can secure work, and there will soon be as great an nllux to the cities as there was to the arvest field two months ago, N. Y. Sun.

ANNOUNCEMENT. Not Decided an To 8lniinoua, But Probably Only Ellas Will Be Proceded Atcalnst A Conference With Ransom. Washington, Sept. 18. Senator Vance returned this morning. lie and Senator Ransom had a conference on the floor soon after the Senate convened. Subsequently Senator Vance told me he intended to fight "Uncle Kope's" nomination, but it was not de cided whether he would contest Sim mons'. Aycock's appointment will not be contested. The opinion among the Representatives seems to be that Sena tor Vance will not try to defeat anybody but Collector Elias. The finance com mittee will consider the latter case to morrow. It has been reported for a day or two that Representative Settle is anxious to have the Republican Senators join with any Democrats so disposed in order to reject Simmons and Elias. He has been active recently in the Senate. Charlotte Observer. THE NEWS CONEIRMEO. Vance Makes No Concealment Elias In Danger. Washington, Sept. 20. Special. Senator Vance said to The Citizen cor respondent today : "It is manifestly improper for me to discuss matters pendiag in executive session, but it is generally known that 1 propose to defeat the confirmation ot Elias if possible." Other Senators, not so reticent, say it is perfectly well under stood that the Administration proposes to reward Ransom and punish Vance for their respective attitudes on silver. Ran som will have the support of Admin istration Democrats and Hale and a few Republicans personally friendly to him ; Vance will be backed bv the silver Democrats and a great majority of Re publicans who enjoy a fight and resent presidential interference with tbc Seriate on silver. Tom Settle is working hard against Elias, who Is here believed to be unfit for office. Settle has many friends in the Senate and is getting in damaging work. Meantime Vance is not idle. He is as popu lar in the Senate as at home, the Republi cans especially being very friendly to him personally and they with the silver Senators make a big majority. Unless some unexpected change comes failure to confirm Elias seems sure. Brunswick's Scourite. Bki nswick, Ga., Sept. 20.

Only one industry south of the Ohio river has come forward at all asking protection. and this one comes from a steel plant in Alabama. State Bank Circulation. Chicago, Sept. 19. The Tribune in structed its correspondents at a number of cities within a radius of five hundred miles of Chicago to interview the officials of the State banks on the question of the repeal of the 1U per cent. tax on State bankcirculation.
