The third and lust week of tariff debate in the House opened with a slim attendance of mem bers and visitors. After the reading of Saturday's journal and some executive communications, the House went iuto c nnniittee of the whole to consider the tariff bill. This week will see the conclusion of the tariff debate in the House. Accord ing to the special order the voting on the bill and pending amendments will begin a week from today noon. During the past week no amendments of substantial importance have been voted on with any chance of adoption except that 6x ing the date upon which free wool would go iuto effect, which was curried over the protest of the Democratic members of the ways and means committee. This week, however, will witness the fight over the big amendments to be offered from the Democratic side. The full measure of the Democratic opposi tion to the bill will then develop. The first fight will come on the sugar sched ule. Three hours have been set apart for the consideration of the propositions to oe offered by the sugar men. Four amendments will be offered to the para graph putting sugar on the free list if the present plan is adhered to. The first will be that of Mr. McRae of Arkansas to abolish the provision relat ing to the sugar bounty on tbe Wilson bill, which contemplates' its gradual re duction of one-fourth of a cent a year for eight years until it is wiped out. To this Mr. Price of Louisiana will offer an amendment to substitute in place of a bounty, a duty of one cent per pound on raw sugar. A substitute for this to re tain the McKinley bounty of two cents will be offered by Mr. Meyer of Louisiana, and Mr. Boatnrr will offer an amend ment to the substitute to placeaone-and-a-hnlf cent duty on sugars. This will extimist tbe amendments that can he pending. The vote will be taken in the reverse order. The sugar men will make a strong fight on the ground that tbe sugar is a revenue article and in accordance with the nictates of the Chicago platform should be made dutiable to supply the deficit which it is estimated the customs, schedules ol the Wilson bill will cnuse. They will have the support of all the Democrats who nre opposed to the in come tax, including Mr. Cnckran, Mr. W ilson and others of the ways and means committee. While it is generally admitted that they will probably lie able to muster a majority ol the Democrats, the Republi cans, who are pledged to the free sugar I'i'hHiic uf the McKinley law will give them no aid. The chances of the adop tion of a augur duty tui tlic above rea sons a' c slim. Tuesday has been set apart lor the consideration of the amendments to the fiee coal and iron ore schedules. The present dutv on both these articles is 75 cents per ton. The coal men, es pecially of Virginia, West Virginia and Alabama are at the back of this opposi tion and have tbe support pretty gen erally of the Democratic representatives from those states. The iron interest of the South, Alabama and Tennessee and of the Lake Superior districts, is lighting against free iron ore. Railroads will yield a portion of the duty and amend ments ranging Irom 35 to 50 cents per ton will be offered. Kaw materials are made tbe backbone of the Wilson bill and a herculean effort will be made to prevent delcat here. 1 be Republicans, it they loin with the coal and iron men, as they probably win, tn.iv make tnc vote close, but the Democrats of the Wavs and Means com mit Ice manifest no alarm. INFANTICIDE. The Terrible Crime of an I'unat- ural Mo. her at Weavervllle. The Ii mling of the body of a dead child at Wcavcrville Saturday morning dc- vel pcd iuto a case of infanticide. The b dy was that of a colored infant, and was found in a fence corner on Rev. J P. Austin s property where i had been buried probably by the mother, believed to be Lula Weaver, a colored girl 20 years of age. The Weaver girl bad been employed as servant in tbe home of Rev.

Soon after, tbe girl went to kcv. vv. uvrd's home us ser vant, where she rcmaiued until last Sat- urluv morning, when the body was lound. hue wns charged with the mater nity ol the child, but strenuously denied it. Soon afterward she left and has not since been seen. Coroner McUniycr and Drs). I. A. and W. L. Reagan, Gill and Barrett found that the child had probably been killed. and the coroner's jury, composed of Iv. U. Weaver, F. K.Mclntyre, T. H. Reeves, Kev. J V. Austin, 1. 1. Reagan, and F. T. Pickens, rendered a verdict that the child had come to its death at the bands ol its mother, Lula Weaver. A warrant for the accused was issued and placed in the hands ol Deputy Chas. Williams.

Collector Carter Talks) of Hit con versation With The Menalor Re Kardtuir Simmons The Real Fight Was AKalnsI Ellas A dispatch sent out from Raleigh Fri day said, concerning tbe question of the confirmation of Collector Simmons of the Uasttrn district, that Senatot Vance had told Collector M. E. Carter, while the latter was in Washington recently, that he would not further obstruct Mr. Sim mons' confirmation. In an interview on the subject Collec tor Carter this morning told Tin; Citi zen that upon his asking Senator Vance what course he intended to pursue in tbe confirmation of Simmons, the Senator replied that he had said he would vote against Simmons, but he did not know any other Democrat who would, and thought there was no doubt as to his confirmation. The Senator said he was so uuwcll that be would probably not rcmaiu in Washington during the winter (he has already left for Florida) and it was very likely he would not be present when the Simmons matter came up. Uis real fight had been against Elias and as that matter had been settled he now felt at liberty to look after his health more than anything else. Lapt. Carter did not know bow the conversation had been made public, and would not talk on the subject now bad it not been for the public reference to mm. Recently the Fayetteville Observer said it bad on "high authority" that Senator Vance woul I not cease in bis opposition to Simmons' confirmation. It is now time for the Observer to give its author ity. 1. F. RANDOLPH OE4U. A well Known Printer Succumbs to Pneumonia. A. F.

An Educator Makes It a Text For a Plain Talk. Referring to the postponement on Saturday of the meeting of the Bun combe County Teachers' association, a prominent educator, who has tbe work very much at heart, says to Tin-: Citizen: "This speaks ill lor public education in Buncombe county. There is no reason why teachers hbould notencournge these meetings by their prescne. There is every reason why they should. Possibly if monthly salaries were paid at these meetings the attendance would be prompt. "Any one who has not sufficient inter est in school work to attend n gathering of teachers, where methods of teaching are aiscusen and wnere mucn Help can be derived by these discussions, has no place in a school room. One would think strnngelv of a man starting to practice medicine without attempting to know something of anatomy and the treatment of diseases. And there is no reason why people should be tnrncd loose upon innocent children, unless thev have made a study of the subject of teaching or at least intend to study it. Teachers cannot do this by staying at home and being indifferent to these meet ings which nre for their especial bcucht, This is nothing short of a disgrace to the schools of Buncombe county." LABOR GIVES TO CAPITAL. Probably The First Case of Its Kind In The Couutrv. Pittsdi'Ki;, an. 2. Local Assembly 300, K. of L the Window Glass Work ers' association has granted the npplica tion from lames A. Chambers, President of the Chambers Glass company, for a loan oi $ou,uuo. This is probably the first case in which organized labor was cnlled upon to loan money to cnpitnl. In all probability loans will be made to other manufacturers, as thev have applied for money. The workers nre willing to give it to them in order to keep the plants running nnd to prevent tbe associated manufacturers Irom carry ing out their threat to closedown all the window glass factories in the country to secure a reduction in wages, bnsmg their ciaim on inc inriu cue.

SnbHcrlntlons Made Last Week Augmented bjr a Collection ai the First Baptist Church Sun day Evening. The Asheville Young Men's Christian association will continue its good work among tbe city's young men for another year at least. A canvass was made last week for subscriptions to insure the maintenance of tbe association. Tbe minimum amount needed as a guarantee of its continuance was $1,000. Up to Saturday night the canvassers' work had been so successful that there remained only a few hundred dollars to be raised. For this purpose a mass meeting was held in the First Baptist church last eveuing. Several of the city churches held no ser vice and their congregations joined the First Baptist and filled the auditorium and gallery to overfl iwing. L. A. Coulter, State secretary of the Y. M. C. A., was the first speaker, giving facts concerning tbe association here and its work during 1803. He paid a tribute to Geo. W. Rapson, the secretary, who, although not an experienced association worker, had done splendid service while in that position. Mr. Coulter also thanked tbe people for their generous reception of the board of directors during tbe canvass. Rev. R. G. Pearson, whose well known power as a talker is sufficient to gather a great congregation at any time, was the leading speaker and followed Mr. Coulter. Mr. Pearson prefaced his ser mon with remarks on the association declaring it would be a shame to have published "in the city paper" the an nounccment that Asheville could not support the Y. M. C. A. His text was a part of tbe SSSth verse of the 7tb chapter of Acts. The life ol Saul of Tarsus was reviewed and lessons drawn from his lite were forcibly presented. The sermon was a strong presentation, in plain, yet powerful, beautiful language, of one ol the world's greatest characters. Upon the conclusion of the sermon, Mr. Pearson called for subscriptions tf make up the amount lacking He kep' the congregation in a good bumor with humorous anecdotes that helped along on financial lines. He said that on oni occasion he was at a camp meeting ii Mississippi. A purse was raied for bim and alter it had been delivered a mat came tip and said: "Mr. Pearson, I thought you preached for souls and not for money." "So I do," was the repK. "but 1 cannot eat souls; and if I could it would take a dozen such as yours to make a mess." The collection was kept up until the guarantee needed was raised Mr. Pear son, in a happy tone, announced tbe fact and said he could see the news go out in The Citizen uud on tbe editorial page that Asheville would sustain the Y. M. C. A. The meeting closed and everybody went away hapoy in the knowledge tnat the gathering bad bad such a suc cessful result. Ul HNliD AT THE STAKE. Two Fiends Meet a Horrible Bea b gpeedll .

HORNBLOWER STRUGGLE. It Will Be Renewed. Over This Nomination. Washington, Jan. 22. Tbe President today sent to the Senate the nomination of Wheeler H. Pcckham of New Y'ork, to be associate Justice of the Supreme court of the United States. Pecham is a brother of Judge Kufus Peckham of New York Court of Appeals. He was appointed district attorney by Cleveland, when the latter waseoyernor of New York. Although the New York Senators decline to talk it is understood the nomination is distasteful to them. The indications seem to be that tbe Hornblowcr struggle will be renewed against this nominee. He Is Not Dead, Deu;r.uh, Jan. 22.
