Birmingham, Ala., Nov.! 20. The general public here seems to attach but little im portance to the proclamation of Kolb. They anticipate no trouble whatever, and believe his (manifesto is simply for political effect abroad. . 1 1 ! i Kolb was interviewed by his own paper, thej Tribune, to-day, and the following is the substance of his remarks: ! "I ipropose to offer the people the oppor tunity to stop the Jones kind of Govern mett. We wanted a contest law. We asked it of the last Legislature, bnt in ap parent defiance of us, ' it repealed the sec tions of the Code of 1886, which made some step toward granting a contest in elections of State officers and put nothing in the place! of I those sections covering our demand. No man who knows the feeling of i t,he present Legislature believes for a moment that it will do anything to allow! an orderly and full contest of the electron of Oates, as the constitution requires it to flo. The most sacred rights of the peo ple have been outraged and all that J one j means is if they do anything to right them selves he will shoot them to death. "I know the people better than he does and 1 know what their feelings are and wbatj their i determination is. They have been cut down to the last point of endur ance.!

The Supreme court this morning sentenced fariofo Hedgepeth to twenty -five years' im prisonment ;in the penitentiary, and the Supreme court marshal will probably bring him tb the prison to-morrow. In the spring of lb-Jz ne, witn several other jparties, robbed a San Francisco ex press car in St. Louis county of nearly $17, 000 and about $3,000 worth ot valuables. Only a small portion of the plunder has -m eyer- been recovered, aitnougn numerous efforts have been made to effect some sort I of a compromise with Hedgepeth. Hedeepeth is said to have been involved m the life insurance swindles developed at Philadelphia upon the Fidelity Mutual Liife association ny tne udiquiiqus a.. i. Holmes. Holmes is being claimed as a criminal in nearly every State in the North, and one of the stories published is that Holmes' plan of purchasing a body and palming it off as the corpse of a well-insured man was originally sugge sted by Hedgepeth who was cheated out of f his share of the proceeds.

The earthquake shocks continue at Milazzo, on the'; north coast of the Island of Sicily and the fact that the volcano of Strombold is nearly in a state of eruption is accepted as proof that the dis- tarbances are of volcanic origin. The in habitants of Milazzo continue in a state of the greatest terror. They are living in huts hastily erected in the fields.! Elsewhere the feeling of alarm is subsiding and business is resuming its normal course. Reports received from the province of Reggto de Calabria aggravate the number of j deaths and the amount of damage done. Two hundred corpses haye been extricated j irom tne rams of nouses at Ban irocopio, or which number forty-eight bodies were found beneath tha ruins of the church. The number of persons injured is said to be enormous. ; It is estimated that the damage done to buildings at Palmi. not counting the loss incurred I in furniture destroyed, will amount to 2,000,000 lire.

Tom Watson. the Populist candidate from the Tenth lieor gia district, has accepted representative J. C. C. Black's offer to settle the controversy whether the Populist or the Democrat was elected on November 6th last, by trying the thing over again. Black, on the face of the returns, had 7,000 maioiity, but the same counties in the election for Governor a few weeks previous, gave a decided majority for the Populist candidate. Black will take the commission as member-elect, put will re sign on the 6th of next Marth, when his term commences, and it is understood that the Governor will order a new election at which Black and Watson will bethe only candidates. . 1 ! .

It is learned that the Japanese Government has sent its reply to the note of United States Minister Dun, asking whether a tender by the President of the United States of his good offices in the interest of restoring peace in the East would be agreeable to Japan, lieiore reaching a conclusion, the Ministry Igave the matter consideration for several days and finally atatvA n Mr. Dun that although the friendly sontirrifintff which prompted the Govern ment and people of the United States were deeply appreciated, the success of the Japan ese arrhies had been such that China should approach Japan directly on the subject..

The War Department opposes the payment of the charges and it is likely will contest the claims in the courts.

She will stop at the Azores. Gibraltar, Suez, Colombo and Singapore. the report of Paymaster General Edwin Stewart, of the navy, for the past fiscal year is a document of considerable interest. It presents a complete exhibit of the financial alfairs of the department. Among other items, it is shown that durine the period covered by the report the cost of the united States cruiser Chicago (2d rater) was 310,- 613 : the United States cruiser Yorktown (3d rater), f 169,907, and the United States steam ship Petrel (4th rater), $103,502. These fig ures afford an approximate idea of the cost or maintaining vessels of the difrerent classes. The cost of the New York nayy yard was $51,3-11. This includes only the cost of officers and clerks and of labor and material applied to the erection, repair, care and preservation of the wharfs, buildings and docks. I The regular Cabinet meeting did not take place, owing to the absence of the President. When returning to his home at Woodlev last eveniug from a walk, he trod on a small round stone, which rolled away, causing a sprain of one ankle. The sprain is slight, out because it was sustained by a foot which had been afflicted by gout, it was so painful that walking was not easy. Mrs. Cleveland drove in this morning and informed the members of the Cabinet. The President is getting along nicely, but walking is still painful, and he would not make the trip: rj.be indications are that the present uov- ernment loan of f 50,000,000 will not only prove a complete success, but that the aggre gate of the bids will be far in excess of the amount of the bonds to be sold. As fast as recei ved the bids are immediately placed, un-opened, in the treasury vaults, so that it is impossible to know, in advance of the general opening on next Saturday at noon, the names of the bidders, the amounts bid for, or the prices offered. The number of ehveloDes bearing the legend "Proposals for the Purchase of 5 cent Bonds," which is be ing received at the treasury, is far in excess of the number received for the February issue, and the number of requests for blank forms of bids is far beyond expectation. 'the amount ot gold withdrawn to-day from the sub-treasury at New York in ex change for currency, presumably for the purchase of bonds, was 1,600,000, of which 900,000 was taken by the Central National oanK, snsw.uuu dv w atson uros., ano tm- 000 by the National Bank of the Republic on account of customers.

The SurC cotton re view says: cotton declined 6 points, but re covered this and advanced 5 to 7 points, closing very steady. Sales were 131,100 bales, New Orleans declined 5 points and then recovered this and advanced 4 to 5 points. Spot cotton here was quiet and un changed. Sales were 71 bales for spinning. Liverpool declined z to & points and then rallied apd closed quiet and steady at a net decline for tbe day of 2 points. Spot sales were 10:000 bales at unchanged prices, in Manchester yarns were steady, cloths quiet. Tort receipts were oy.txw bales, against tu.i 060 this day last week and 53,348 last year. jsewuneans receipts 'to-morrow were esti mated at 16,000 to .18,000 bales, against 20,891 on the same day "last week, and 13,774 last year. Thus far this week the receipts are 181,370 bales against 195.749 thus far ilast weex.

New Yoey, Nov. 20. The opening of the stock market was attended with firmness. ! higher cables from London as well as a brisk inquiry from local 'shorts having brought about a gain in the leading shares equal to i to 1 percent. Lackawanna, Southern railway preferred, Manhattan, the Industrials and the Grangers were most prominent in the improvement. Shortly after the first hour," however, the demand for the shorts for covering purposes ceased, and the postponement in the action of the Burlington and Quincy dividend induced some of the room traders to put out fresh lines in the Grangers. There was, however, no Special activitv in tha mnrfeot nntil tha last hour, when a raid was made on the Grangers, the result of an interview with President Cable of the Rock Island, in which ne savs, among other things, that the next four or nve months are almost certain to be lean ones for the Western roads. Another story that hurt the market I at this time was to the effect that the Chi cago and Northwestern directors at their meeting on November 27th next will reduce theif dividend rate. Nothing official could byootained. The heaviness of the Grangers TiTThe last honr led to selling of the general 1 list and for a time the whole market sagged. American Sugar, however, was the first to recover and sold up to 90, after declining from 894, against 90i' earlier in the day. The support accorded this stock was much commented upon to-day -and it was hard to trace the source of the orders. Some had it that a pool had been formed on Washing ton rumors that there would be no tariff legislation this session. In trade circles, however, it is contended that the absence of business is the main source of the troubles and until the demand quickens, a bull campaign cannot be suc cessful carried through. Chicago Gas rallied to 74i and receded to 731 to 73J. At one time the stock commanded a slight premium for use. Owing to the rally in Sugar, the market left off steadier in tone. Net changes show losses of i to 1J per cent, North Western leading. Louisville and Nashville, Manhattan, New England, Western Union, Southern railway preferred and Sugar gained i to S per cent, on the day. Railway bonds were quiet and lower. Sales of listed stocks aggregated 111,000 shares; unlisted, 58,000. . Chicago, Nov. 20. Holders of wheat had less courage to-day eyen than yesterday. The shorts, with recollections of last week's strength, were timid and not disposed to press offerings yery hard. This uncertainty on both sides resulted in inactivity and com parative quiet The odds, however, were in favor of lowerprices. and a net loss of c for tne cay was made. Cash wheat was weak and ic lower. Corn was dull and easy during most of the session, but late in the day an early loss was recovered, the slight improvement in wheat being of a beneficial effect sympa thetically. Cash corn was weak ; No. 3 was a full cent lower and other grades showed a loss of from to Jc. Oats were steady even when tbe other cereals displayed weakness, The reason for the independence was not quite clear, many believiDg that the oatmeal trust had some part in it. Offerings were light and trade unimportant. Cash oats were from steady to ic lower. There was more product for sale to-day than there was demand to absorb it. The preference for the selling side was ascribed to a lower hog market and to the sinking proclivity of grain. Business was of a much less important character than in the imme diate past, with outsiders evidently holding biuui. xne ciose was zic lower man yes- teraay ior January port and lzj to 15c each ior January lard and ribs.

A southbound accommodation train on the Chestnut Hill branch of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad ran into a two horse carriage con taining John Horace Meacham, aged 70 years, his wife and Mrs Harriet Smyth, at 10:30 o'clock this morning at the East Washington lane crossing in Germantown. Mr. Meacham was killed, as was also Patrick Lacy, aged 57 years, the watchman at the crossing, who had seized the horses' heads and endeavored to back them from the track. Mrs. Meacham received a fractured skull and died shortly afterward in the Ger mantown hospital. Mrs. Smyth was slightly injured. Both horses were killed outright and the vehicle was smashed to pieces, it is supposed that Mr. Meacham, who was driving the team did not hear the approach ing train and was not aware of the danger until he had driven upon the track. Engi neer Morris Lacy states that he did not see the team until within two car lengths of the crossing. He then saw the horses on the track with the watchman at their head en deavoring to back them. The engineer blew the whistle and reversed the locomotive but the collision could not be averted, apd tbe watchman and the team were struck and hurled some distance away. Mr. Meacham was a retired business man and lived in the vicinity. The watchman had been in the employ of the company about twenty years and he was killed within a few feet of his home. Testimony of n Infidel Subject of ; S Objection. Memphis, Tenn., Nov,' 20. The question of the inability of Butch McCarver, the chief witness for the prosecution in the lynching case, was discussed in the criminal court to-day. Judge Cooper held that he had not concluded that McCaryer was in competent, though he had avowed his un unbelief. McCarver was brought out of jail and re-examined, but he persisted in all hia statements of yesterday. Dr, L.. 8. Wilh ford swore McCarver had told hira of his infidelity sever-al years ago. Sheriff Mc Caryer was placed on the stand. An at tempt was made by tne aeience to mage, him admit his son's depravity. He hroka down and wept.

It is mighty easy to be a candidate, but mighty hard to get the place. There are now ten candidates who have come out of the woods to show' themselves, arid no doubt others are concealed in the shrubbery. These are Re publicans. Only one jPopulist, other that Mr. Marion Butler is named, this being Mr William A. Guthrie. . Governor Carr appoints Dr. W. P. Bell, of Greensboro, a member f the State board of health, vice Dr. H. T. feahnson, of Salem, resigned. ; j Howard Alston, of Halifax county, is ap pointed a notary public. The sheriff of Hyde county to-day brought a convict to the penitentiary, to serve ten years for larceny. On the Supreme court bench, in front of Chief Justice Shepherd, this morning, there was a vase of Buperb chrysanthenums, bear ing the card of a lady, with this quotation -" Viclrix, Uama Deis Flacuit, tied Victa Catoni." i It will be but a little while before the fa miliar face of the chief justice will be missed from the bench. In front of the headquarters of Mr. Otho Wilson, the People's party agitator, is a card with the words "People's Party Headquar ters." In this county Wilson did a great deal of hard work for fusion. If he heard that one of the Populists was weakening, he hurried to him and sought to reviye his faith. Few people know this man's energy or how great an agitator he is. . This evening the referees on the part of the city and the contractor who made alter ations and improvements of the market house, met with their arbitrator to see what could be done in the way of settlement. Ever since August 20th. the -citv has been without a market. There is a great deal of feeling in regard to the matter. This jnorning the three negro robbers who gave their names as Burston, Carlisle and Garver, were taKen to Jackson, Northamp ton county, to be placed in jail. The evi dence of their robberies at Seaboard and Garysburg is direct, stolen clothing haying been found on their persona. The evidence against them here was not yery direct, saye in the case of one. Within two weeks work on the new roller nouring mill here will -begin There has been some months delay. Great numbers of patridges are brought in here and sold. Wagons from Chatham county are begining to bring rabbits. The saies or raobits here are very large, and strange to say, Chatham furnishes almost the entire supply. The rabbit is sometimes called the "sand horse," though how this name originated it would be hard to say. The revival at the Baptist tabernarlp h pre conducted by the Kev. Mr. AdamS of Iteids- vuie, ended this evening. . The theological dispute over the doctrine of "sanctihcation ' contint es. One Metho dist preacher declares his belief in ' instan taneous sanctihcation' and says he was sanctmed two years ago. Another Methodist pastor declares that the profession of sanclification ; is the best evidence one is not sanctmed. uoctors diner theologically Found Dead in His Bed. ' Jacksonville, Fla.. Nov. 20.
