tion favoring the holding of a monetary con
ference to see what can be done to remedy
the evils arising from the fluctuations and

Drunkenness has increased alarmingly in
Belgium in the last forty years, according to
M. Lejeune, lately Minister of Justice. The
revenue from the excise ixl 1851 was 4,000,
000 francs, now it in 33,(X)tf,000; the number
of saloons has increased from 53,000 to 175,
000, and the annual consumption of spirits is
12 litres per head of the entire population, or
48 litres for each adult. Crime has increased
200 per eent. and insanity 138, and of every
100 deaths among males 80 are traceable to
alcohol. -
A bill offering a reward of $100,000 is pend
ing in Congress to any inventor, of any na
tion, who shall, before the year 1900, con
struct an aerial vessel capable of going thirty
miles an hour through the air and carrying
passengers and freight. But inventors need
not wait for this bill to beeome a law before
putting forth their efforts. The sum of $100,
000 might be a trifle to the fortune that would
await the man who should construct and
cover with patents the air ship thus called
for.
' Bradstreet's says: While the eourse of gen
eral trade during the first two months of the
current year has been disappointing, Feb
ruary ends and March begins with tangible
though not as yet satisfactory signs of im
provement. It is encouraging to note that
gains are reported in the volume of trade at
almost every Southern city, notwithstanding
advices from Northern cities, whose jobbers
supply Southern and Southwestern markets,
that low prices for products had curtailed
purchasing ability at the South and Southwest.
In thirty years the consumption of tobacco
in England has risen from 29.000,000 to 62,
000,000 pounds, and from an average of 19
ounces a head to 26 ounees. In the same time
the consumption of non-alcoholie drinks has
grown far in excess of alcoholic drinks. In
1861, 125,000,000 pounds of tea, eoffee, cocoa,
and chiccory were imported to 265,000,000
pounds in 1893, while the rise in wines and
spirits was from thirty-five to fifty-one mil
lion gallons. Beer rose from 24 eallons a
head in 1861 to 331 gallons in 1874, but has
fallen off again to 29 gallons.
The Government debt statement issued last
week shows a net decerease in the publie debt
less cash in the treasury during February of
$34,033,327. The expenditures for the eight
months this year foot np $249,171,000, about
$250,000 less than for the eight months of 1894.
For February, 1895, they are $25,696,000, or
$1,250,000 less than for February, 1894. As
compared with 1894 the expenditures for the
fiscal year up to date show increases of near
ly $2,3000,000 in eivil and miscellaneous ex

There is bo change in the status of affairs be
tween France and San Domingo. Oar Gov
ernment has interfered in the matter of the
Government of France ordering seirnre of the
eustoms receipts of San Domingo. Pop
ulists of the Legislature hold a eaueus and
try to devise a plan for avoiding the respon
sibility and consequences of the Douglass
resolution. They decide that no more good
can eome to them by holding joint caucuses
with the Republicans. They also insisted on
replacing the co-operative board feature in
the County Government bill. . The eaueus
also decided that the Criminal Circuit bill
was a Republican job. Marion Butler made
a speech denying that the Populists owed
anything to the Republieans on account of
his election to the Senate. A Chicago
firm gets the contract for the publie building
at Newbern, N. C. The gold reserve now
stands at $83,948,672. An Illinois RepuV
lican convention nominates a candidate for

bery ever committed in Texas took place on
the edge ef Dallas last week. Fifteen thor
onghly armed men held up the Austin and
Texas Central Fx press at the Missouri. Kan
sas anti Texas crossing, l ne ngineer ana
fireman were mad to leave the engine, then
the robbers eut loose the express and baggage
ears, placed men on the engine, pulled the
throttle wide open and ran northward, leav
ing the body of tho train on the track. Just
before starting away with the repress ear the
robbes compelled Engineer Tom Averett. to
get into the cab. He was made to rua ont to
a point near White Roek creek bottoms, about
five miles north of the Dallas union depot.
They stopped and compelled the express mes
senger to open the express ear and admit
them. After they had finished with the ex
press car they put oat the headlight and other
illuminations, leaving the engine and express
ear in total darkness, except the light fur
nished from the fire box. They told the en
gineer to back his train as soon as he pleased.
The French War Department has com
pleted experiments with a new gun, which is
guaranteed for a thousand rounds. After 3,000
rounds had been fired, with the heaviest charges
of smokeless powder, the rifling was found in
fair condition. The muxzla velocity was 3,-
000 feet per second. A large number of
persons, mostly students, have been arrested
in Kieff and Odessa, Russia, on snspicion that
they were engaged in revolutionary plots.
Amontr the prisoners are several Poles and
jews. The Brooklyn Baseball Club left
New York last week for Savannah, Ga. During
their sojourn in the South they will play six

4 o'clock Thursday afternoon fire broke out in
Bryan Fields' stables, Kinston, and rapidly
spread to the wooden buildings in rear of Oet
tenger Bros.' store and the Opera House. The
two main business blocks of the town are in
ashes, including all the stores and their ef
fects, also the Free Press office. A dispatch
says: It is by far the severest fire ever in Kin
ston. The loss is fully two hundred and
twenty-five thousand dollars and the insu
rance in the aggregate is small. The origin
of the fire is reported to have been a eigarette
stump, carelessly thrown by a boy in Bryan
Fields' stables. Commandant Le Chatte-
lier, of the r'reneh Marine force, fought a duel
with Harry Alia, inflicting a wound from the
effects of which Alis died in a few minutes.
The weapons used were swords. M. Le Chat
telier in the first encounter broke Alia' guard
and drove his weapon through his opponent's
body, piei eing the right lung. The duel was
the K suit of a controversy carried on through
the Colonial press. A building in New
York which workmen were tearing down col
lapsed and several men were killed and a num
ber of others wounded. -The treasury
statement shows a decrease of the publie debt
during February "less cash in the treasury,"
of $33,594,281. -For the eight months of
this fiscal year the Government expenditures
have exeeeded receipts by $36,205,000. The
receipts were $12,000,000 more and the ex
penses $250,000 less than last year. There is
a marked improvement in eustoms receipts.
The cruiser Montgomery, at Mobile, has
been ordered to the eoast of Honduras on a

THE LEGISLATURE.
Special Con-eeponHeace of the Observer. "
Raleigh. N. C. Feb'? 25, 1895.
The bill in the legislature to require rail
roads to redeem unused tickets, and which
i known as the scnlpers bill has passed.
The tw most important provisions in the
bill are "that at least 50 per eent of the
ticket shall have been used, an 1 that it
shall be presented before the expiration of
sixty (GO) days from the date of sale."
This direct tax fund, the disposition of
the unclaimed part, of which is giving
mach worry to oar law makers, cannot,
according to the priviao of the government
when it was refunded, be used until G years
will ha.'e expired, and those six years will
not be out before 1897. Theu the legisla
ture of that year can repeal or confirm the
action of this body as they may deem best.
The following. is an outline of the cot n
ty government bill that the republicans
required the populists to adopt: There are
to be three eounty commissioners elected
by the people. In counties wltere there are
200 voters who petition for it, the Gover
nor is to appoint a board of audit and
finance of two members. The eaueus com
mittee also recommended that next year
the people elect three magistrates in each
township. This the populists swallowed
also. The populists were urged by their
leaders to stand out for their original bll
with the cumulative feature, but the re
publicans boldly declared that they had
already yielded enough to the populists,
and that they were now fully determined
to assert themselves.
North Carolina is now without a State
printer. The contract with the best State
printer expired last week. The committee
on public printing is to meet to-night to
make another effort to determine the low

city will be the fortunate ones any hov
the bids are so rinse that it will take ex
perts to make the decision.

The red-hot wave of indignation over
the action of the Honse in refusing to ad
jo urn for Lee and Washington, and then
doing so for Fred Douglass, is still rollm

State and telegrams poured in asking for
particulars. The Caucasian sayt that it is
false, that the House did not refuse to ad

cites the motion of the House, and the
