met to-day at 11 o'clock 1 vitli an unus
ually small attendance! j The it-solution
offered last Saturday: by lnator Stewart
as to the co-ordinate departments of the
Government, was laid IxJfore the Senate.
Its text is: ' - :'( '..)" '
: Tlexofved, That the indep'ndenee of
th co-ordinate departments of the Gov
ernment the legislative the executive!
and the judicial must t he maintained,
anil that the use of the J power and in

Senator Stewart addreed ;the Senate
on the resolution, lie btan with a jcita
tion from President Cleveland's speech,
last Monday ofi the: occasion of com
memorating the hundreth anniversary of
l:iy;ing Uie corner-stone ;of the Capitol.
He; described Mr. Cleveland on that, oc
easHon as turning his face towards the
Senate wing of the Capitol, and in anger
and menacing tones using thej following
lanjguage: "If the Keprsentitivea who
here: assemble to make Jlasvs for
their fellow countrymen forget the
duty of broad and; disinterested
patriotism and legislate, in prejudice,
ami passion or in behalf of sectional or
sellih interests, the tinw; vhen the
corner stone of the Capital was laid and
the! circumstances surrounding it will
not be worthy of,- eoiumeihorating."
This declaration. Senator. Stewart said,
had been construed by a venal press as a
rebuke from the President of the, United
States to the Senate. . He; charged that
the 1 'resident, in disregard of his oath of
oliice to execute the lavy.lhad permitted
the Secretary of the Treasury to violate
the law of January 14th, 1800, which
made the purchase v of 4,50O).O0O ounces
if silver bullion per month mandatory.
In proof of this he cited the sh'ortpur
chase, of silver by the treasury during
July and August. lie . could j not con
ct'ive how this could be justllie'if, in view
of the scarcity of currency which should
have been increased by the issue of treas
ury certificates for silver bullion. He
knew that an excuse was made 'that silver
bullion was not purchased "because the
holders asked more than the- market
prices, but he insisted tht the - market
price of property was thai at Which the
owner was willing to :teeil. However
much, he said, some' Senators might
deprecate the law. of July;" 14th, 100, all
(both high and low) had o obey the law
if civil liberty was, to be maintained and
if Constitutional Government yasto ex
ist.! The President's oath of office com
. nianded him to see that the laws we e
faithfully executed; but here was a plain
mandatory law that hlid been disre
garded. Vas it not timtf; lie asked, to
sound the alarm? If constitutional lit
er ty was of any vilue, it peemed to him
that all, friends and foe3vfehould stand i p
and say to the President fof the Unites
States: "You have overstepped the
mark. "VVe cannot afforJl -- to have the
lavVs of Congress disregarded.
Senator Stewart then dr if ted to the
Anti-Chinese bill, and asked whether the
Executive had enforced it; (Whatever
miif ht be thought of thatdaw, at was in
force, i.nd if tlie Executive might violate
omj law. he iiIg;t violatejanother. Was

Jed Senator' Stewart to-jnquire- where
and llow tlie President had' iearhed" all
that he kheu Where had h4 had tlie
opportunity of poisbegsing himself of the
science of money and c.v(Jtiomit?'i Where
and when, and in what 'school had he
studied it? He belived that Mr. Clever
land was the only President of the
United States who iiad not pos
sensed a liberal education,' either
in. j some cevllege or t on j a ; farm
v liWu he .communed x: ith nature and
learned htii.i.e's law. Ilti tlid ric believe
that the education of at cierk. or of a

in a college, or without ajr lilieraf edue
tioli i;; studying the works of nature,
iitli'd a man Us preside oyer the destinies
bf this country. The president of the
United States required a! wider view of
of the lawii of money and of nature than
could be .obtained in a lifwyer's office or
in a sherilf's office, or ii the .jotlice of a
mayor, or any other sftch- Contracted

Lincoln wero .adduced by Senator Stew
art as great samples of great Prtgide.its
who had not had collegiate Qducations,
but hud acquired their extensive knowl

with the people. "Jlut'.'uhf -rtuuately ,-'5
he !continued,'Our President was denied
both a collegiate education j and that
grander and better education, com
luunkm with tlie grett proyducing classes

pioneers of t he Vest, communion with
ih4u who are the bono and .sinew of the
eoibntry. 4 : " ( .
Senator Stewart then 'read from .hpj'.
Congressional directory, of. the- present
cst,'o:j the l'residcnt's "biography, mak
ing anmsiii or sarcastic comments- upon
it ;is he read. As iw read the sentence
t!rit. Cleveland had when io ij'.ears old,
becoi.uj a clerk,- and assistant teacher of
the blind in ;ewYork city, his comment
upon it was that Cleveland had not in-
tiik lv gotten over that haoityet, ILaugh-
tet-! " - ' :!" " -
At 1 o'clock this Vi(u President an-
n inured -the unlinLslwid Jhiisiness, "The
PifealT)ill," but Senator?Stewart asked
the privilege of going onijivith his speech.
f'l have no objectioiiLon xny part,"
said Senator Yooi hets; -'to the Senator's
going on and linishingl'fts.fipeeeh.''
What is the Senator's request," the
Vice rticelilent inquired.;!' j ' .
, f 'To procve4 yith my speech" Senator
Stewart replied: ' j ' ; .
'With the regular, firde- pending,"
was Benritor Voorhees' addition to ih
request. j - j
"j'l do not care what iss pending,'' said
dilator Stewart. "I cr" tsnak-on the
bill cr on, the resolution, but j i waiit to
hate the resolution acted upon."
: After some colloquy and an objection
bv! Senator Washburn-to 3 proposition
not to send the resolution to the calen
dar, Senator Stewart proceeded with his
speech. . i ' !
After talking more than two 'hours
and a half, Senator Stewart : paused and
said that he would now jike to yield the
floor to the Senator from .Pennsylvania
(Cameron) but he would go on with his
speech whenever the Senate! would let
him. He had not got td the main point
of it yet. . j
Senator Cameron, then took the floor
and addressed the Senate in opposition
to the. bill. He began by calling atten
tion to Gladstone's speech; in the House
-of Commons February 28th last. In that
speech Gladstone had fiaid that England
was the greatest creditor of the countries
of the world: that her foreign invest
ments increased largely every year; that
y-"i thousand millions of liouncls would
be an extremely low estimate of
English credits, and that under j these
circumstances it was rather aj seri
ous matter to ask that country
to consider whether they were going
to perform this act or sell-sac nnce. x ou
will observe that "the supreme act of
self-sacrifice" which Gladstone considers i
to be contrary to the interest of England
as the great creditor of the countries of
the world, is the attempt to maintain or
restore to silver the function of serving
as money. I am tempted to sit down
and leave this speech of Gladstone
to stand alone as the ground for the vote
I shall give on the bill now before us. It
ii ground enough.- To my mind it car
ries conviction as to tjie true course of
an American, the olhtial avowed policy
of England is to prevent the restoration
of silver to its function as money because
the moneyed interests of England re
quire, or tmnK they require, a mono
metallic gold standard.
Senator Cameron, in conclusion,
stated his remedial DroDositions thus:
"We all agree that, L with Europe and
Asia in their present critical state of
equilibrium, any silver or paper! cur
rency needs a larger guarantv than.
usual. . For that purpose I propose a
gold loan of so mafiy hundred million
dollars as Congress may decide, to be
bought at the market rate, and held in
the treasury as the gold reserve is held
in the bank of France, and by the gov
ernments of the Latin Union.
"I. propose to open our mints to the
free coinage of America silver, imposing
a duty on the import of foreign silver.
I propose; further, for the benefit of the
poorer and weaker States, espicially in
the South, to rejieal the tax on jState
bank circulation a measure which is in
tended to give them a free hand in mov
ing their own crops, developing their re
sources, and relieving them from their
servitude to the great capital 0ities.
I look for no effect, or but little,
from this step as .far as the North
is concerned, I would also 'press
once more for action in favor of
our shipping. To mend in part the de
ficit of our income for next year I f ould
impose the duty of 2 cents per pound on
sucar and reneal the bounty. Then I
would wait a year to see how the system
worked and how far we were affected by
foreign influence. As for our foreign ex
changes they are automatic and will take
care of themselves under any system.
They have done so when we had no cur
rency at all, when we had gold, when
we had irredeemable paper and when we
had silver.
Senator Bate then addressed the Sen
ate in opposition to the bill.
At the close of Senator Bate's speech
(4 o clock p. m. ) Senator Stewart re
sumed the floor and, after his two hours'
rest, went on with his remarks in the
same vein that marked , his utterances
earlier in the day.
Senator Voorhees interposed with a
motion for executive business, remark
ing: that the agreement for a seven hours'
session daily contemplated giving a short
time to that business.
The Senate at 5 :45j o'clock adjourned
until to-morrow at 11 o clock a. m,

Very few members w-ere present when
the House came to order this morning
A roll call would not have been re
sponded to by more than half a hundred
Representatives.
Several leaves of absence were granted,
among them, one which provoked some
merriment. ' As read bv the clerk it was

'The House proce3ded to the considera
tion of the report of the Committee, on
Accounts granting the Committee on
Naval Affairs an additional clerk. Only
1G8 votes were recorded no quorum

A quorum was thus obtained and the re

Mr. Meikleiohn. Republican, of Ne

(In the bill the limit is fkxed at 40 cents

The amendment was lost, as was alsp

St. Joseph, Mo., Sept, 2o. The Kan
sas City, St. Joseph and Councjl Bluffs
road foiled an attempt to rob lone of its
passenger trains, killed two of the ban
dits and captured three others, at'JJraneis,
one and a half miles from this city, last
night. The dead are Hugo Erijfle and
Ed. Kohler. The names of the captured
are Frederichs, Hurst and Garf e. One
named Gleitz escaped for the time, but
was captured in St. Joseph : latei- in the
day. The robbers were, with two excep
tions, desperate men. They formed a
plot last week to hold up and frqb the.
Omaha express at Roy's branch, one
mile above this city. Friday night wa$ '
set for the robbery, but, owing to the
fact that the robbers got trains mixed
up, the train of that date escaped. Yes-
teeday the officials of the frailroad
company were notified by f Hurst,
who. turned traitor, that 'another
attempt would be made at 1 o'clock this
morning at the same place. Th officials
quietly side tracked the regular train
and with a train made up like the regu
lar, the two rear coaches darkened to aid
in the deception, started for tlie place.
in the baggage car were htteen armed
"police commanded by Chief jBroder.
Sheriff Carson and four deputies, all
heavily armed. General Manager Brown
and Superintendant Hohl were also in
the party, j. At the place stated by Hurst
a red light brought the train to a stop
and Gleitz and Kohler jumped on the
engine ana wun pisrois at the head ot
Engineer Wright and Fireman Wise, or
dered them to take dynamite and blow
open the express car door under pain of
death. On a refusal the two bandits
asked the messenger to open tlie door,
but he relused to do so and j Kohler
shouted: "Open or we'll blow ybu all to
hell. : ; I
At this the door ivas opened.: and

Kohler married a most estimable young I
lady three weeks ago.
The bandits had two sticks of dyna

fuse about three feet long. It was known
to the othcers on the bogus train that
dynamite might be used and it-was at

The weather continues remarkably fine
for picking cotton and this week a great
amount of this kind of work will be
done. The gins are very busy. The cot
ton is opening rapidly. There is natu
rally a great deal of interest in the crop
prospect. Messrs. E. H. Lee & CoJ very
kindly give your correspondent tlie bene
fit of their information in this particular.
They estimate, upon the carefully prer
pared reports of tlieir correspondents,
that the crop in the State will be 9 per
cent, greater than that last season.
Wqrk on the addition to the south wing
of the insane asylum progresses fairly
well. The annex will be 100 feet front
with a depth of 118 feet. The front will
be three 6tories high. The rear will be
only one story, and will contain the din
ing room for all the female patients, this
being 100x60 feet. The annex will be of
brick, not stuccoed like the main buihl
ing. ; M
Mention has been made of the fact that
a man named Brady here beat in a terri
ble manner a man named Flynnj having
caught the latter in his house at mid

hand. The sequel to the affair was to:
day ascertained. - Flynn has gone to Vir

Mr. JuKan S- Carr writes that he will
make a special exhibit at the fair of pro
ducts of his ''Occoneechee" farm, near
Ilillsboro. If other farmers will follow
his example this can be made a feature
of not only this fair but of subsequent
ones. It is a fact that there is hardly
