It Is not probable that Mr. Crisp will be able to open the House to morrow. The House will have to elect a Speaker pro tern, and it is likely that Mr. McMillin will he chosen to preside until the Speaker recovers. It is expected that there will be little or no business trans acted. They may adopt the resolu tion, previously delayed by objection providing for the appointment of committee clerks. This will proba bly be the only business done, and an adjournment will be taken for thrci days, unless the Chilean correspond ence should not b received and there should b nme reason for being in session on Wednesday to receive it. The committees ni l probably organ Its and get ready for work. Those in authority a to such mat ters in Conerea have he n given to understand that the i'resklent ha? prepare ni ssnge to both house? of CongresM ou the Chili an affair, transmuting the entire correspon dence between this count iv and Chill There has been cnUlerabli speculation a to the probability of the President's sending in such a message, but it seems now to be set tled beyond question that tie ill do o. This does not necessarily mem war, but it points that way. If tin firm standjtaken ' by thin country makes such an Impression as to pro dace an apology from Chili, thp n:ut tot jIJl,.of otirte, be then settled without a resort to arms. The belief that there be a peaceable settlement of the difficulty is based mainly upon . aonvlcttou that tho Chilian govern ment will not, when ii comes to the pinch, be willing. to risk war with a nation "o much her superior ia force as Isftke United States. The course of the United Htates, however, will be such, it Is said, as to mako an apol ogy necessary on the part of Chili to avoid hostilities. Gov. Humphrey said to-day of his appoiDtmeut of Mr. PerkinB as Sena tor: "Having in view the long ser vice of Judge Perkins on tho bench and in the lower House of Congress, where he was by common consent ontofthe acknowledged leaders of theKaosasdeleifatioii.it seemed to me thathisappointruent would prove satisfactory to the people of the 6late. It might be said that my motive in appointing Judge Perkins was selfish in this, that It would re move bim as a possible candidate for Congress In the Third district In the Interest of myself for the office. On this account I heBitated somewhat in ' the matter, but the fact is that Judge - Perkins was not in my way for Con gress,' having pnbllcly Jdeclared as well as privately to me and to other , friends that he would not be in that - race. ProWhis honorable career on - the bench and in Congress I have ', the utmost confidence in his ability, and am confident that he will serve , - the State with great dignity and honor to the United State Rejiate."

Presi dent Alva Agee, of the'Farmers' AT- llance and Industrial Union, arrived here tonlirht and beRan the fight against the re-election of Hon. John Sherman to the Henate. His efforts are without results so far as can be seen. The (state committee or the Alliance will meet here on Monday to take a hand in the fight. The situation today has been mark ed by the vicious attacks of (iov Koraker ana his lieutenants upon tne Cuyahoga delegation. Tbe governor made a speech to the gentlemen, in which he rererrea in sarcastic terms to the efforts being made by the army of Federal office-holders In behalf of Hherman. A desperate etrort was made to tret Hen ator Oreeh, colored and Representatives Doty and Pink ney to sign a paper pledging their votes for Koraker, but was unsuccess ful. Representative Axline, of Perry who has been classed in the doubtful list, with a probable leaning toward Foraker, has declared for Sherman. Representative Allen, of Greene, has reached the city, an I confirms the report that he will vote far Gov. For aker. Thus the day's declarations show no relative change in the sit uation, the eight or nine doubtful men still holding the key to the sit uation. The estimates given out by the Sherman managers tonight give him fifty-two votes, or seven more than sufficient to elect, and accord Fora ker but thirty-nine The ex-govern or said tonight he ivould be elected as sure aa the cauoas met unless "unque influence" was exerted upon some or his etrengto. Mt. Alry'a I'lnckV Mr. Aiby, N. (i, Jan. 2.-Hardly had the great fire ceased which on yesterday swept over a hundred thousand dellars' worth of property Into ashes the itiae Kiage inn, Ml Airy Hotel and a block of stores. when the citirens of this progressive young city held a meeting to organ !ze a company for rebuilding. To- night great enthusiasm prevails and stock is being subscribed for an ele gant summer and . winter resort hotel, la tes style, and like onto the Bat'ery Park of Asheville, to be built Immediately. & Jacob H. Wright, one of the best known tobacco merchants In Balti more, bat committed suicide, rttKK TitiKarottrATiy. A Important Dcalalna fit ran by th ta I oral ate Oumutore Oeromlaalitn. The interstate oommerce commls- slnu has -endcred an opinion lu the case of the Huston and Maine rail road, involving the question of the right of the company to Issue passes lo certain classes of persons specllled 111 the answer niea by the company, as follows: Hick, Indigent andolher charitable cases, men long eminent In public service, proprietors of sum mer hotels and large boarding houses, wives of employe) and other immediate members of their famil ies, agents of ice companies and milk contractors," the higher officers of Htate in the Htat.es of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachu setts and certain prominent officers of the United States, like collector of customs, members of the railroad committees of the legislatures of the Htates above named, trustees under mortgage on the property of the cor poration, persons whose good will is important to-the corporation. The commission has In this case construed the act to regulate com merce in respect to tno right or a railroad company to give Interstate passes to suoh chisses of persons. The commission met the question squarely, and In a convincing opin ion discussed the statue and cited authorities at sc me lonirth, and con cluded that branch of tho case in theso words: "Without further citation authori ty the construction wo Rive to section 2 of the act to regulate commerce Is that where the service of the carrier subject to theact is 'like and con tern portneous ror iiiiierent passengers the charge to one of a greater ur less compensation than to another con stitutes unjust discrimination and if) unlawful unless the charge of such greater or less compensation is allow ed under the exceptions provided iu section 22, and that where tho traffic is'under subtautiaMy similar circum stances and conditions' in other re spects it is not rendered dissimilar within the meaning of the statute by the fact that such passniiKers hold unlike or, as sametimes termed, un- niual official, social or business po sitlnns, or belong to different classes as they ordinarily exists in a com munity or are arbitrarily created bv I the carrier." There were other classes of pass holders named in the answer, whose passes, though in form free, were free only in name,because in reality there was some consideration for them, such as those Issued to newspaper men in exchange for advertising, to hotel proprietors, ice dealers anil milk dealers, and to some other per sons who are claimed to stand on spe cial ground of right. As to these classes of persons tbe commission said tuat the investiga tion would have to bo extended to enable it to pass a satisfactory judg ment thereon, and that to avoid the delay which a proper and full inves tigation of these classes would occa sion, and in view of their minor im portance and yet perhaps greater dinlcsulty of decision, and of the ur gency that the defaiuisjnt should be informed at this time fif the decl-ion upon the leading (ti(Htioii involved namely, the construction of the stat- 'ie upon the subject of free transpor tation, the commission concluded to hold the case as to such special clas ses of persons for stuili further inves tigation as might be neccessary to put It in full posHession of all tho facts before finally passing upon them, and in the meantime to issue an order applicable to the classes fi rst named in accordance with tbe construction of the law as set fort this being pursuant to the practice in other cases. (!nv, IIolts Kmaiiclpatton Day Hpeech. Raleigh News and Observer: Dur ing the administration of Governor Holt, he has been called upon to de liver addresses in diirerent Hoctions of tho Htate, and whenever he has spoken, his political friends and foes alike have recognized the emi nent practical ability and sound judgment whirh have enabled him to discharge his official duties with so much success and credit. His speech in this city on Emancipation day, is no exception. It should be carefully explained to the colored people of the Htate iu order that there may no longer be any doubt of the intention of the whites to' gov ern North Carolina, but at the same time their purpose to see that equal and just laws are made, construed and executed without regard to color or condition. 1 lie Uovernor's speech is based on broad lines, and is free from partizanehip. It is the speech of a man who always speaks out noiaiy wnat no tiuiiKs or public questions, and entertains no views, necessary for him to express, which he hesitates to make known to his fellow-citizens. Wte have heard Governor Holt's speech, delivered in Metropolitan Hall on the 1st, very highly commended by botli white and black. The addresses by the colored speakers on the occasion were conservative. D. W Parker's speech was considered by a fewl of his colored friends as rather political. but as the advancement of the color ed poople greatly depends upon their political course this speech in many respects very appropriate, and. if the advice given he followed, likely to be attended with good results. The speaker told the members of his race present that they must devote their energy and ability more to industrial fiursuits, if they wished to be success ul, and this is good counsel. Tno much politics has been' the bane of the colored people, and want of at tention to other pursuits has kept many from prospering. Parker un derstands that alt the advantage In contest . Detween the white and black races for supremacy would be on the side of tbe former, and he is wise tn leu his colored friends the whole troth. .
