Uenouncinj; the Wilson Bill and the Proposition to Repeal the Bank Tax. Columbus, Omo. June 6 When the Republican State convention met to-day matters went smoothly. S. M. Taylor was renominated for Secretary of State without opposition. John A. Shanick of Dayton, was nominated for Judge on the third ballot oyer Chief Justice Dick man. candidate for renomination and John A. Pierce, C. E. Grocewas re-nomi nated for board of public works and O T.. Carson for school commissioner. Most of the speeches were to the effect thatForaker is favorite for United States Senator and McKinley for President. These are the tariff sections of tne plat form: - We recognize the tariff act of 1890, known as the "McKinley Act." as the ablest expression of the patriotic princi ple of nrotection yet enacted and con demn and denounce any attempt to re peal or amend it, which does not nave for its object better protection to Ameri can labor and American interests than is secured by it. "We denounce tne unjust ana in equitable tariff measure known as the Wilson bill and the Senate substitutes therefor and amendments proposed thereto, as unpatriotic, favorable to trusts, and sectional in their provisions ; and as subversive of the prosperity and j happiness of the people of the United j States. " "The change from specific to ad ; valorem duties would promote under- ' valuations, . fraudulent invoices and increase, . importations with a loss of revenue to the Government Jof ' many millions and result in a constantly increasing annual deficiency, which it is propojed to meet by the resort to such war measures as income tax and increased internal duties. On the financial ques ion it says; "We favor hi metallism. Silver, as well as gold, is one of the great products of the United States. It coinage and its use as a circulating medium snouia do steadily maintained and constantly en couraged oy the National Government, and we advocate 'such a policy as will. by discriminating legislation or otner- nrijp mnsr. snecmcaiiv reswjie uu mo o" The SenateCompletea the , Tobacco Schedule , and Takes up Agricul tural Products and Provisions , ' A Long Debate on Various! Subjects Republicans " Filibuster Against a I Ijonger Bitting, t SENATE. ' ; Washington. June 6. -In the morn ing half hour the Senate passed several local and private bills and a resolution was reported by Senator Blackburn from the Committee on Rules, for the appoint ment of a select committee of five Sena tors on the existing public distress and to which shall be referred the petition of Morrison I. Swift and others r and all other petitions for measures of relief from such distress. ; At 10:30 o'clock the Tariff bill was taken up. the Question being on the " to bacco schedule. Paragraph 184, as it came from the House and as it was re ported by the Finance committee, im. posed a duty of $1 per pound on all leaf tobacco suitable for cigar wrappers, if unstemmed, and $1.50 per pound if stemmed. The Jones amendment was to strike out the paragraph and substi tute for it the following: "Wrapper to bacco, unstemmed, imported in any bale, package or in bulk, $1.50 per pound; if stemmed $2.2o per pound. Senator Jones, on behalf or the xi- .,. S 1 A ft nance committee now moomeo tne amendment by making the rates $1 on the unstemmed wrapper tobacco and $1 25 on the stemmed (the House rates). Senator Piatt opposed the modification and compared the action of the commit tee in again changing its . mind and in dulging in what boys used to call ('In dian giving" that is giving and taking back. The proposed change, he said, would be very sad news to the Demo cratic friends of the committee engaged in the growing of leaf tobacco in Con- neticut and Massachusetts. The increase of duty on leaf tobacco in the existing law harmed no one; while the proposed change would result in throwing away $3,000,000 of revenue every year and in benefitting nobody. He fancied the pro pose change would be as little satisfac tory to the Florida Senators as it was to him, because of it would be the breaking up of the cigar industry m that State. Senator Vest, on behalf of the Finance committee, admitted that differences of opinion on this matter existed even on the Democratic side, and he suggested that the modification be withdrawn and that the amendment remain as origi nally proposed $1.50 and $3.25 per pound. He made the suggestion in order to save time. The matter could be afterwards considered in the Senate. Senator Vest's suggestion was con curred in, and the Jones amendment as originally proposed, was agreed to. The next paragraph read as it came from the House and as it was reported from the Finance committee, "all other leaf tobacco, if unstemmed 35 cents per pound; if stemmed, 50 cents per pound." The amendment proposed by . Senator Jones on. behalf of the Finance commit tee, was to substitute for that paragraph the following: "Filler tobacco, un stemmed, imported in eny bale, box, package, or in bulk, 35 cents per pound; if stemmed, 50 cents per pound" with various provisos agreed to. - The next paragraph remains as in the House bill 40c per pound on tobacco not specially provided for in the bilL The next paragraph was amended bo as to make the duty on snuff 50c per pound instead of 40. The next paragraph was amended so ss read; " Cigars, cigarettes and cheroots of. all kinds, $4 p.T pound and 25 per cent, ad valorem; and paper cigars and cigar ettes, including wrappers, shall be sub ject to the same duties as are herein im posed on cigars." The next paragraph taken up was "Agricultural products and provisions," the first paragraph being 20 per cent, ad valorem on liye animals not specially pro vided for. Senator Hale moved to strike out the ; rjaraerraph and insert paragraph 247 of i the existing law, making the duty on ' horses and mules $30 per head; horses " yalued at $150 and over to pay a duty of 30 per cent, ad valorem. . Then followed the long debate of the . day, a very little of it devoted to tariff subjects and a great deal of it to a wide, range of subjects. Senators Hale, Aid rich, Vest, Dolph, Gallinger, Peffer and . Co Horn bad more to say about the Qre ' gon and Illinois elections than about the Tariff bill, and Senator Stewart broke in with one of his usual speeches on silver. Senator Hawley made a short speech, bristling with epigrammatic sayings, such aa these: "The doctrine of free trade is cruel. It is the doctrine of wild beasts. It is 'every man for himself and the devil take . the hindmost' the world over. It Is not our duty to break down 1 the bars and let all the wi!d cats of the call to which forty-five Senators re sponded, and then the vote was again taken, with the result of no quorum. . Senator Harris said that it was not his purpose to get into any wrangle, or to attempt to force reluctant Senators to remain in session. Whatever was the feeling which should exist in regard to the course of the other side, he was not willing to subject either side to the in convenience of remaining until absent Senators might be sent for. He there fore moved an adjournment and tne Senate, at 7 o'clock adjourned until to morrow. HOUSE OP REPRESENTATIVES. After disposing favorably of the New York and New Jersey Bridge bill and also a bill for a bridge across the Monon gabela river the House proceeded to the consideration of the bill to repeal the State bank tax, under the arrangement agreed to yesterday. The debate closed at 2:10 o'clock and a 1 vote was taken on the Cox amend ment to repeal the 10 per cent, tax out right. The vote was announced as yeas, 102; nays 170. The announcement was received with slight applause. The substitute of the Committee on Banking and Currency for the original B raw ley bill, suspending the operation of the 10 per cent, tax as to issues of cer tificates, etc., by clearing houses and other organizations last v year, merely changing the verbiage so as to make it more explicit, was defeated on a viva voce vote. Then the original bill was lost, also without a division. This was the end of ten days debate and a result that occasioned some surprise, and tne announcement was received, amid much confusion, with applause. Mr. Holman moved that the House, in Committee of the Whole take up the In dian Appropriation bill for the year ending June 30, 1895 agreed to. Mr. Holman asked that the first read ing of the bill be dispensed with. Mr. Ray, Republican, of New York, objected. The clerk began the task of wading through the 138 printed pages of the document, but had proceeded only a lit tle way when an arranement was ef fected by which Mr. Ray withdrew his demand for the reading of the bill and Mr. Holman promised that the House should adjourn it then being 2:55 o'clock. When the committee had risen Mr. Holman found it diffiulty to carry out his agreement, many of the members ob jecting to adjournment at that hour. On division the House vote 82 to 52 to adiourn, but Mr. Bynum demanded the yeas and nays. The vote resulted yeas, 104; nays, 96. So the House at 3:25 o'clock adjourned until to-morrow. Secretary Smith's Address at Chapel Hill. Chapel Hill, N. C, June 6. The ninety-ninth commencement exercises of the University of North Carolina were held to-day. Secretary of the In terior Hoke Smith was the principal guest and the orator of the day. Sec retary Smith was given an ovation when he arose to address the throng of 3,500 people that packed Memorial hall to its utmost capacity. He spoke for an hour, and his speech was warmly received and heartily applauded His allusion to the fact that slavery and reconstruction had been the twin evils that had retarded the material prosperity of NorthCarolina and the South was received with manifesta tions of approval. When he said that the South loved the negro and there was no room here for Coxeyism, the audience broke forth in great applause. In the course of the speech he incident ally intimated that the new Tariff bill would become a law by July 1st. and the invincible Democracy present re ceived thi3 news with great joy. The speech made a profound impression and old timers declare that it is the greatest oration delivered here in a quarter of a century. The university has conferred the de gree of Ll. D. upon the secretary. BUSBEE AND BLEDSOE. &tz9 ClxrtrtiJtmmlf . THEIR REMAINS4BURLED THE SAME AFTERNOON. : A : 5PECIAL : 5 ALE A Deadly Struggle With Strikers. Peoeia, III., June 6. One dead body, several men on the verge of the grave, a number of others seriously injured, $30, 000 worth of property absolutely de stroyed, and many homes made desolate was the result of an attempt made to day by the miners of the Peoria district to clce the mine operated by the Little Brothers in Tazewell county, a mile or more back of Wesley City. Several miners were shot but were taken away and no one could secure any information from them about anything. The tragedy was the sequel of the meeting held at Bartonville the other day about which there was so much se crecy. No one could get the faintest inkHnsr of what was done at the meet ing. Now every body knows.

Messenger Bureau, ) Raleigh. June 6. The funeral of the late J. Eaton Bled soe, who was for years a prominent law yer and politician here, was held yester day afternoon at 6 o'clock from the Methodist church. " The remains of the late Walton M. Busbee were met at the depot yesterday afternoon by relatives and friends, and were borne to Christ church, where his funeral was held at 5 o'clock. The papers had published a terrible account of his last days and his death from opium, but it seems now that there is much doubt as to whether these reports are true or not. ' Raleigh will soon be connected with Durham by telephone. The stretching of the wires has begun, and the system will be fully equipped and in operation in about ten days. Miss Kate Hale, who sailed for Europe a short time ago with a party of friends, has sent a cablegram telling of their safe arrival at Gibraltar. Judge and Mrs. Simonton have gone up to Chapel Hill. Quite a number of the young people went up yesterday afternoon and this morning. Mrs. A. B. Andrews chaperoned quite a party. Ground was broken yesterday in Dur ham for the hospital which Mr. Watts gives that city. It is quite a treat to read of such liberal, public spirited men. We have one such man in Raleigh. If we had a few more the capital of the State would push ahead, and be a source of pride to every one. . The sheriff of Guilford county brought ten convicts to the penitentiary yester day, the sheriff of Vance one and the sheriff of Craven two. The force inside the penitentiary has been reduced to 100 convicts, so many being out at work on the farms. The excursionists all returned last night delighted with their trip, "v The Richmond and Danville reached the Union depot at 11:20 o'clock and the Seaboard Air Line section an hour later. The Seaboard Air Line route is nearly seventy miles longer. It was reported here yesterday that the convicted murderer, who broke jail here, was working near Pine Level about thirty-five miles from here. Deputy Sheriffs Wattersjand Brooks. were sent yesterday to see if the man was really Orange Page. A white man was brought here yes terday from Sampson county and placed in jail charged with retailing liquor without license. He will be tried at the present term of the United States court. The United States circuit court was engaged yesterday in trying illicit distillers, but no important cases have been tried as yet. The present court will pass upon the recent sale of the Raleigh StreetRailway company, so it is to be hoped the people will soon know whether we are to have a street car ser vice or not. Dr. W. I. Royster and his son Jimmie left yesterday for Philadelphia, where Dr. Royster's oldest son, Hubert, grad uates at the Medical college. Dr. Hubert Roy6ter is not yet 23 years old and yet his examination before the State medical board was so high as to call for special notice. Miss Lula West, aged 20 years, died at hermother's home, Park Place last night after a lingering illness. Rev. D. H. Tuttle, of the Central Methodist church, left this morning for Littleton to deliver the address before the Littleton Female college. Rev. Dr. Daniel, of the Presbytetian Church, leaves this afternoon to deliver the address before the High school of Orange Presbytery at Mebane. The Odd Fellows will run an excursion from Raleigh to Norfolk some time be-1 fore long. The closing examinations of the Ral eigh Male academy will be completed to morrow, and the honors will be awarded on "Friday. Hon. J. C.
