The annual liquor license court
opened in Philadelphia last Mon
day under remarkablo circum
stances. There are now in the city
only 1,600 retail raloons, the license
fee being $1,000. Petitions with
300,000 names were presented to
the court asking that tho number
ot licenses be still furthor reduced.
There are said to be nearly 7,000

to the high license fee.

As an outcome of the conference
between tho leading silver men of
Denver and Colorado and the pres

committee of the Americin Bi-me-tallic

herself to respond generously in a

education and organization prior to
the holding of the National Bi-me
tallic convention in St. Louis on
July 22. It is believed that $25,
000 will be raised in that State.
The Democratic Central commit
tee met last week and appointed a
meeting of the State Executive
committee April 0th. There was
a full discussion of the status ot the
party, and members freely gave
their views. The drift of sentiment
was decidedly encouraging and a
much more harmonious spirit was
shown than any one would have
imagined. It was stated that Demo
crats and Populists have fused in
Tyrrell county. It is understood
there is such fusion in two or three
other counties but not yet an
nounced. There is ono good feature about
the decline in cotton at this season.
It will help to keep the South from
producing, or trying to produce, an
enormous crop, which would make
the marEet weak for two or three
years. With the high prices of the
early winter an effort would have
been made by almost ever planter
to increase his acreage, and, with
faroring season, there might pot
sibly hate been another 10,000,000
bale crop. With k falling market
there wiii be Utile temptation to
excMire planting and we may look
forward to fair prices. Cotton and
wheat, like tobacco, rrnelly punib
over prod action and are liberal in
reward to the husband man when
there are moderate yields. Nothing
is better onders'ood than this, yet,
after all, the season and the mulct
contract the planter's policy of
fully or wioJom.

The Venezuelan Commission.
Washington, Maich 21. Mr.
Malet l'revoet, secretary of tho
Venezuelan Commission, to-day
authorized the following statement :
'During the past week a report
became current to tho ellect that
the commission had reached a de
cision with reference to tho boun
dary question favorable to Vene
zuela. This having been denied,
the report has been circulated in
Another form and it is now asserted
that while tho commission, as a
body, has xeached no such conclu
sion, the commission individually
entertain the views referred to.
"It must 1)0 evident to all per
sons that so long as anything re
mains to be examined and cjnsider-
ed, the commissioners are not in a
position to torm an opinion rcspect-
nig me mertiB oi mo controversy.
As a matter of fact neither tho com
mission nor the individual commit
sioners aro as yet in possession of
all the evidence.
"The papers presented by Vene
zuela are but a part of what has
been promised. Ihe Blue Book of
tho British government, while re
markably full and detailed, does not
include all the documents which
may be adduced in support of its
contentions. The commission has
not and will not limit itself to the
Consideration of what those two
governments may present. It has
been engaged upon independent
lines of inquiry and will continue
to follow thohe lines until all its
sources of information shall have
been exhausted. Then and not un
til then, will it bo in a position to
form any opinion or to make any
report.
Washington, March 21. The
last mail from La Guayra, just
arrived in this city, contains the
km" expected addition to tho case
of Venezuela as it will bo laid be
fore the commission. The work was
undertaken at Caiacas by a volun
teer commission wnose services
were accepted by the Venezuelan
government. It prepared all ot the
material accessible in Venezuela
bearing upon the boundary dispute.
The matter so far collected was dis
patched promptly by the home gov
ernment to its minister here, Senor
Andrade, and while the documents
themselves are now in New York
the advance mail has-brought to
Washington a complete list ot the
papers comprised in the first install
ment. There aro thirty-two cop
ies of original manuscript records in
the lot, but these, after all, aro of
secondary importance in comparison
with the large number of charts and
maps that have been gathered to
sustain the Venezuela case. , In this
first lot of matter there are no less
than sixty such maps, aud in ad
dition there are references to almost
twice as many additional charts.
that may lie readily obtained. This
store ot material will be turned
over to tho Venezuelan commission
as soon as it can be put in order.

The accident happened some two

The engineer says lie was coming
along at a fair rate of speed and
noticed the man walking by tho
side of tho track, or between two
tracks. Such things are very com

engineer Was not surprised, though
he kept Lis eyes on the man.
Just before tho engine reached
him, however, the man suddenly
stepped right up-u the track. The
engineer applied his air brakes and
blew tho whistle, but it a too late
and before the whistle had scarcely
sounded the 'deed was done the
pilot of the engine hitting the man

After an encounter tho insurgent

Gen. Weyler is nearly distracted
between tho failures of military
openitions on the one hand aud the
horrors being conim tted on tho
other. The report is inflated upon
that ho will soon resign or be re
called. The pressure of political
parties is giving him much annoy
ance. It is admittud on all sides
tliat Wey'er has proven a failure.
The attitude of tho I'nited States is
believed 10 be largely duo to his
reputation and iho excesses com
mitted since his appointment. Real
izing tho ellect ot the latter, Weyler
has endeavored to prevent outrages.
Ilis success has not been greater
than in the putting down of the
rebellion. Tlio way matters have
been going recently has produced a
great increase in the insurgent ranks
and the Cubans are much en
couraged. Maceo's victory result
ed in thocaplnto of considerable
ammunition, which was immediately
followed by hard fighting. The
Spaniards admit it will be impos
sible to put down the revolution for
a long time to come, even if all
things go well.

There aro ninety Senators. They

must have attendance costing $5,35."

Senator Chandler has rendered a
public service by calling attention
to this monstrous extravagance. It
is an abuse of krge proportions,
and it is made worse by the fact
that most of the money is paid to

There has been no school in this

This writer takes the responsi

teacher in the county, etc.," when
that individual is known to go into
tho school room so intoxicated as to
hardly know which end is up is no
better, morally or intellectually,
than the same individual he recom

such habits, if ho is intelloc'ually

enough to laud him. Let a man
