thedcttleraent of the. vSouth Dakota
bond matter and the legislative commit
tee prepared the) following report which
it submitted tonight; The committee to
which was referred the South Dakota
judgment and the Schaefer bonds, : to
carefully consider the same' and 'make
"recommendation report. : - , .
' 1st That the Governor, with the ap
proval of Council of State be directed
to settle the South Dakota judgment
in the manner deemed by them best to
protect the State's interest. '
id" After careM, consideration of
the bonded indebtedness known as the
Schaefer Brothers bonds, being- 242 -of
$1,000 each, with interest for twenty
nine years, and after consultatui with
the -attorneys of ' bond . holders, the
committee unanimously recommend that
the State pay the bonds holders $895,
per bond, amounting to $215,864, which
is $447,216 less than' the principal and
interest, $179,136 loss than the first
proposition suggested by the bond hold
ers to the Governor, N and $26,136 less
, than the ultimatum they offered. . The
$215,864 recommended by thecommittet
andjicoepted "by the bondholders, is
based, though less, on the settlement
of .1879 allowing 2 cents on the ; dollar
and interest for 2 years with interest
on the deferred coupons, this being in
strict accordance with the debt settle
ment of 1879, and the Democradic plat
" form. We believe this, setttlement
both honest and just, and recommend
that the legislature accept and approve

'i ..... ....
Raleigh, March 2. Everybody ex
presses extreme satisfaction at : the
settlement of the South Dakota bond
matter, a settlement which is honor
able to the State and satisfactory to
the holders of the bonds. When it was
found that these bonds had been duly
issued under an honorable act the peo
ple wanted to see the matter- disposed
of, and Governor Glenn struck a key
note in his first message to the legis
lature about the settlement.
The Legislature is arranging to ad
journ Tuesday night. The - Governor
sent in a message today, urging . the
members to serve two days more with
out pay, showing the necessity for their
staying that much longer. Of course a
number of them will go home Saturday
or are now saying they will do so, and
it is now stated that all - the roll call
bills will be disposed of by Saturday so
that light Jiouses after that will make
iittle difference. . " "

A prolonged fight has been made by
some men in the legislature against the
geological survey and it i apears that
this is a personal matter against, the
State Geologist, very largely. Some
members have so stated. They do ndt
realize what the survey has done for
the State, and some of them have de
sired to get rid of the vfhole business;
not caring for anything of the kind. ,
A very wealthy New Yorker, a native
of Raleigh, the head of a great manu
facturing concern, is here looking into
the kaolin interests of North Carolina, j
Charles J. Harris, who is known as the
'.Kaolin King" and who was the. Re-
publican nominee for Governor last
year is also here. His mine, all in "

Collector E. C- Duncan. Governor
Glenn and staff leave tomorrow at noon
on a special train en tho Seaboard Air
Line. The Governor will have a very ,
handsome escort. ; Mounts for the staff
have been arranged for. j
The insurance committees did not act
on tho bill drawn by attorney Field of
this city, designed to knock out what is
termed tho insurance trust, namely the
Southeastern Tariff Association. The
committee said it would take . up that
matter later.' It had a long session
and turned down another bill drawn by
Mr. Field regarding commissions to
agents. It decided to favorably report
one allowing home life insurance com
panies to deposit with the Insurance
Commissioner a sum of.money equal to
the surrender value "bf policies, such j
policies to be registered, this being a
plan pursued in other States. - -
To tha surprise of not a few persons,
the legislature knocked out the bill
which was designed to allow Paul Gar-'
rett to manufacture wine . in Halifax
county ad to sell it in sealed packages ;
so arranged that they could not be re
used by any one else. The, bill had a
