others have withdrawn from the

SENATE. .
Washington, May 15. Senator Allen
offered a resolution on which he asked
immediate action, calling on the Secre
tary of the Treasury for information on
the following points: The total number
of irons engaged in the protected in
dustries of the United States whose
wage3 are or may be claimed to be
allected by tariff legislation; the total
number of persons so engaged whose
wages will not be affected; the propor
tion of the population of the United
States that depends upon the foreign
market for the sale of their products,
clarifying the industries; the total num
ber of such persons who are native born
citizens, the total number who are
naturalized and the total number who
are aliens, and at what ratio alien me
chanics and laborers are taking the
places of native and naturalized citizens
in the industries. All this information
is to be! based upon the census of 1S90.
Senator Chandler Let that resolution
go over and be printed. I take occasion
to suggest to the Senator from Nebraska
that before he asks for its adoption it
would be well to ascertain wheter or not
the Secretary of the Treasury has the
means of answering the inquiries. I am
afraid the Senate will lind that there are
no immediate data from which an answer
can be made.
Senator Alkn Answers to. a resolu
tion of substantially the same character
were made by the Secretary of the
Treasury in IbiG. based on the census of
This resolution is not a new thing
by any means.
"The .resolution went over till to
morrow. At noon the Tariff bill was taken up
and the progress upon it was somewhat
encouraging. With no more discussion
tlatn such as had immediate relation to
the items on the chemical schedule,

The only noteworthy points in the
day's discussion were: A charge by
Senator Vest that the Republican Sena
tors were wasting day after day in "In
sectivorous"' discussion: a declaration by
him that the Democratic Senators in-
I tended to pass the bill if it took them till
; the snow fell, and a denial on the part of
1 Senator Aldrich that any disposition had
' been or would b shown by the Repub
I lican Senators to do any thing except
! discuss the bill fairly and properly,
j There would be no filibustering, he
i added, on the part of the opponents of
i the bill.
j The Senate adjourned at 5:40 o'clock
! p. m. after a brief executive session.
HOUSE OK REPRESENTATIVES
Among the bills reported to the House
from committees was one by McGann,
from the committee on labor, making
labor day a national holiday.
At 12: JO o'clock the House went into
Committee ol the Whole to further con
sider the Naval Appropriation bill for
the year ending June o0, 105. The pend
ing question was upon the substitute
ottered by Mr. Cummings last Saturday
for the amendment proposed by Mr.
Maddox changing the law regulating the
appointment of cadets to the Naval
academy, so J-s to require the Secretary
of the Navy, in selecting cadets to fill
vacancies where members of Cor.gr ss
fail to appoint, to take them from actual
residents of the districts to wLich the
appointments are to be credited.
! r Mr. Maddox asked uirinunou- consent
to otTer an amendment to Mr.Cummings
substitute-; so as to permit Representa
tives and Delegates, whose districts are
not now represented in the academy by
an actual resident, to name a candidate
before the 1st of August next. Objec
tion was made by Mr. Loud.
Ihe substitute of Mr. Cummings was
agreed to, and then he offered as a
further amendment that proposed by
3Ir. Maddox, which would correct the in
justice done to eleven districts by which
they are at present unrepresented in the
academy agreed to.
The bill was then reported to the
House, the amendments recommended
by the Committee of the Whole were
agreed to, and the bill passed.
The total amount carriedby the bill
was 125,3:.516.27, having been increased
f-5.500, bv the action of the Committee
of the W hole.
On motion of Mr. Hatch the House
in Committee of the Whole took
up the Agricultural Appropriation
bill for the year endiDg June
'.iO, 180-5. Ab reported the bill car
ries a total appropriation of $3,l!?O.G43,
leing less by $142,857 then the appro
priations in'the bill for the current year.
After , the bill had been read, Mr.
Dock ery reported the bill, making ap
propriationa for legislative, executive
and judicial purposes for the year end
ing June 30, 1695, which was placed
on the calendar.
The report of the Committee on Agri
culture accompanying the appropriation
bill was read, and'Mr. Hatch, chairman,
explained the bill, largely answering
questions by other members. The only
new legislation proposed in the bill was
a provision requiring the experimental
stations at the various agricultural col
leges throughout the country to co-operate
with the committee in the investi
gation of adulterated foods and drugs,
thus extending the scope of that work.
This concluded general debate on the
bill, and the reading of the bill for
amendment and further considera
tion under the minute rule was begun.
At 5 o'clock, six of the twenty-six
pages of the bill had been disposed of,
the committee rose and the House ad
journed until to-morrow at noon.
COTTON-SEED OIL.
The Wonderful Growth of this Indus
try. In the Nouth in the Past Few
Years.
Baltimore, May 15. The Manufactu
rers' Record this week published a his
tory of the growth of the cotton-seed oil
industry in the South. In 1830 there
were forty cotton-seed mills, with an ag
gregate capital of $3,500,000. There a-e
now 300 mills, having a combined capital
of $30,000,000. At present about 1,500,
000 tons of seed are annually used by the
mills, yielding to the farmers about
118,000,000 a year for a product which
until recently was regarded as waste ma
terial. The total output is about 1,500,000
barrels' or 60,000,000 gallons of oil, 500,
000 tons of cottonseed meal, 750,000 tons
of hulls and 30,000,000 pounds of linters,
the aggregate value of which would
average about $20,000,000 to $30,000,000.
The demand for oil is steadily expanding
and as only about one-third of the total
cotton seed crop is now consumed by the
mills, there is practically an unlimited
room for the growth of this business in
the future. It is estimated that 500,000
barrels of cotton oil are used in the West
in manufacture of lard compounds; 20,
000 barrels in Maine for packing sardines,
50,000 to 100.000 barrels in soap making;
200tm; to 300,000 barrels go to Holland
for use in the manufacture of butter or
eleomagarine and large quantities to
Mediterranean ports for mixing with
olive oil. Ten years ago the hulls were
burned by the mills as a fuel as no other
use could be found for them. Investiga
tion proved that they made exellent feed
for cattle and last year about 400,000
head of cattle were fattened for the
market on cotton seed hulls, with 100,
000 milch cows were fed on the same
material. '
Sun's Cotton' Re view.
New York, May 15. The -Sun's cot
ton review says: Cotton declined 4 to 5
points, closing dull, with sales of 65,700
bales. Liverpool declined 4 to 4J points
and closed easy, with spot sales of 8,000
bales at weak quotations. In Manchester
yarns were in buyers' favor, cloths dull.
The Bombay half weekly receipts were
22,000 bales, against 24,000 for the same
time last year. New Orleans declined 6
points. Ports receipts were 4,312 bales,
against 4,368 this day last week
and 7,685 last year, thus far
this week, 11,278 bales against 12,
833 thus far last week. There were no
exports to-day. Spot cotton was l-16c
lower. Sales were 559 bales for spinning.
The Southern spot markets were gen
erally quiet at old quotations. New Or
leans receipts to-morrow are estimated
at 300 to 500 against 737 on the same day
last week and 180 last year. Fine
weather and depression in Liverpool and
the South caused weakness here.
A Disabled Steamer Adrift.
Savannah, May 15. The steamer
Clandeboye.Capt. Strickland, bound from
Cardiff for Vera Cruse, with a cargo of
paint, fuel and machinery, is anchored
on the northeast coast of Little Bahama

ATLANTA EXPOSITION.
A GEORGIA DELEGATION
VISIT THE CAPITOL.
Glren a Hearing by the IIoue Com
mittee on Appropriations They
Want Government Approval bf
the Be he me Asking For a
HalfMfllionlDoIlar Ap- I
propria! Ion for a
Government
Exhibit.
Washington, 3Iay 15. Citizens, ac
companied by a party of representative
business men of the South, to day ap
peared before the Ilouse Committee on
Appropriations and explained the aims
and purposes of the proposed cotton
States international exposition to be held
in Atlanta in the fall of 1805.
C. A. Collier, president of the exposi
tion, said the idea which induce those
back of the enterprise to undertake it at
this time was that the time had arrived
for securing closer commercial relations
with the South American countries.
The great bulk of this trade now went to
Europe, which was, by all laws of trade,
business that belonged to the United
States. With proper encouragement this
trade could be turned in our favor. The
promoters of the exposition wanted the
Government to give its approval. Such
recognition was necessary for its suc
cess, and especially abroad. They
did not ask a Government appro
priation to aid the exposition, but
wanted the Government to erect a build
ing and make an exhibit. While At
lanta men had started the enterprise, it
was in no way a local affair. All the
Southern and Southwestern States had
endorsed it, and promised their support.
New York, New Jersey and some of the
New England States had already ex
pressed a desire to participate. The ob
ject was to make it an international and
inter-State affair, and the Government
should be glad to endorse an
enterprise- which was for the good
of the whole country.The exposi
tion committee desiredr Congress
to authorize the erection of a
$200,000 building and to appropriate
$300,000 for transportation and care of
a Government exhibit. So far, between
$500,000 and $600,000 had been secured,
but the committee did not want to go
beyond the limits of their State for sub
scriptions until the Goyernment had
given the movement its approval.
Foreign Ministers in Washington had
been consulted. informally and had given
assurance that as soon as the Govern
ment had put the stamp of approval on
the enterprise, they would present the
matter to their Governments,
Representative Livingstone, of Ga.,
said that the representatives of foreign
Governments would not take part in the
affair unless it was approved by this
Government.
In reply to a query by Representa
tive Combs. Mr. Collier said that one of
the main objects of the exposition was
to show our people and those abroad our
ability to compete with Great Britain
and Germany in trade with them.
Mr. Howell added that if we could im
press upon the South American repub
lics the advantages of dealing with us
and our ability to supply them with
goods, we would accomplish all we
wanted. In doing this we would benefit
the whole country.
J. W. Labouisse, president of the New
Orleans Cotton Exchange said that body
heartily endorsed the movement. If we
wanted to extend our trade, the best way
to do so was to show the world what we
could do. The great coffee steamers
come to our ports, unloaded, take on a
load of cotton for England and return
from there to Rio and Santos with car
goes of manufactured goods. Why
should they not be loaded and returned
from our ports.
S. M. Inman, of Atlanta said
that the proposed exposition would
have a tendency to impress upon
the people of the South the power and
dignity of this government.
G. G. Jordan, of Columbu3, Ga., spoke
of the railroad facilities of the South.
The exposition would largely develop the
resources of the Southern States.
Mr. Howell referred to the interest
taken in the matter by the colored peo
ple and introduced Bishop Gaines, of the
Georgia colored M. E. church.. Bishop
Gaines endorsed the statements of the
speakers before him. Nothing, he said,
could be brought to bear which would
be of more good, especially to the col
ored race, than the exposition. The
colored men are not going to Africa,
They were American citizens and in
tended to stay here and help develop the
country. They wanted to bring exhibits
to Atlanta and let the world see what
they could do. They would turn the light
on the bright side of their race and show
what they could do iha dark side had
been often shown.
Bishop Grant, of the colored M. E.
Church of Texas, f-aid that those" present,
knew the cuired people and wh it they
could do. He wanted to comet the im
pression that they were no good. There
were no strikes in the cotton t.eMs. no
fight between capital and labor. Th'j
colored race was a reserve force. When
strikes were on and men left their plact?
the . whites came for them they
went to work. They did not
come here because they were
colored. They came to show that they
were citizens and what they could do.
They came to show that they" had nearly
overtaken the whites in the march of
civilization and improvement. When
this was done there was no one else to
overtake. 4 "Gentlemen, we are right
after you. You can bring in your for
eign labor; they soon play out. But we
are still here, and we will remain the
reserve force. You have the money; we
have the muscle: we want thetaonev;
you want our labor. Give us a man's
chance, and we will show you the
bright side of the colored race.

CLOSING SCENKS
Of the Southern Baptist Convention
The Next 'Convention to Ik at
Augusta Ga. j
Dallas, Texas, May 15. The dele
gates and visitors to the Baptist oonvt n
tion commenced to leave yesterday and
last night and this morning, and out
going trains were loaded, many of them
carrying additional coaches in order to
accommodate the extra travel. There
were, however, enough left in the town
to-day to fill the tabernacle and make
apparently as large a crowd as ever.:
The convention was called to order at
9 o'clock by Bishop Harralson. The ui
ual devotional , exercises were gone
through with, and the convention ad
dressed itself to the unfinished business
of the committee on home work, which
occupied the convention all day ytster
day. When this was dispatched, several
resolutions were 'called among them one
extending a vote of thank to the press
of the city for the exhaustive and ac
currate reports made of the proreeding
of the convention and for the kind treat
ment generally the delegates and visi
tors have received, It was ordered that
10,000 copies bf the printed proceedings
of the convention le distributed and
that in future a full official programme
in advance be printed and adhered to
throughout. The vice president's report
was then read, and as it was very volu
minous, it took some time. The com
mittees on foreign "mission, on home
missions, and on Sunday schools wen
re-elected for the ensuing year and their
headquarters will continue at Richmond,
Atlanta and Nashville respectively.
The committee on basis of represent.!,
tion retorted in favor of a reduction A
the representation on the ground that
the body is getting unwieldly. A vote
was taken on the suggestion, which was
voted down.
The Baptists have for several years at
their conventions invited the whole
world to fraternize with them on a Bible
basis. In response to the invitation, a
communication was received this morn
ing from the Christians (or Campbellites)
which was presented by Rev. T. M.
Davis, who represented a committee ap
pointed for that purpose by the general
conference of the Disciples. The paper
sets forth that there is no difference be
tween the two denominations on the
point of Baptism, and there is no reason
why there might not be organic unity
between them. The communication
was referred to a special committee of
five with instructions to prepare a cour
teous and fraternal response to the ! Dis
ciples, j
The question of the consolidation of
the home field and foreign mission
boards was referred to a special com
mittee. There being no further business before
the convention, the benediction was
pronounced by Rev. Dr. Ixftus and
while the whole congregation joined
in "Am I a Soldier of the Cross the con
vention went into the committee of the
whole on a grand hand shaking and fare
well at 1:15 o'clock. j
While the next place of meeting has
not yet been announced, it is a foregone
conclusion that Augusta, Ga , will be
selected. A telegram from the mayor of
that city was received by the convention
this morning extending an invitation in
behalf of the citizens to hold the semi
centennial meeting in Augusta, where7
the convention was originally organized.
The resolutions of Dr. Canfil, intro
duced yesterday, condemning the Cath
olic religion and warning everybody in
and out of office to lookout for a sudden
surprise which might suppress theentire
American eagle and which was referred
to the committee on resolutions, were
not reported back, and thus has ended
the most memorable religious conven
tion that ever met in Texan.
