Mr. Abell took grouTrafr-L favor of the amendment, saying there was no danger of North Carolina bo coming a Dakota or an Oklahoma, as the gentleman from Guilford, Mr. Scales, seems to be afraid it would, as no foreigner had come . to this State seeking a divorce since the .law had. been passed.

It was a case that deserved the pas sage of such a bilL He had known of no advantages that had been taken of the law. He knew of meritorious cases now that would take action for di vorce as soon as sufficient time had elapsed; therefore he would vote for the amendment of Mr. Anthony, as he thought It a good law. Several Sena tore took part In the debate, amonj them Messrs Whldbee, Justice, Moye, Parker, of Alamance; Scales and others. The previous question was called and sustained. Mr. Butler asked for a roll call on the vote on the substitute. The substitute of Mr. Butler passed sec ond reading and was placed on third reading. Mr. Ray moved to refer. Lost.

Park Hotel. ' . Raleigh,. Jan. 8. The majority Populists at their cau cus last night decided to do Just what it was known they would do that is. cut loose from the Republicans. They issued a 3, 000-word address, which was yesterday .prepared by Butler, Foun tain, Ayer ana cy. Tnompson. 1 New tbe question la will the majority populists stick? The minority Populists f declare that they will get as additions i tn their ranks lt or 15 or tne malnrttv. I Harris of Hyde, one of the bolters. would recognize no party, but vote as he pleased. - J Hodges, another bolter, said: "We wui j0 the best we can. We consider we are the true PoDuUsts. We will con- ; tlnue the fight for the Populist party ' end its nrinciDles." Senator Orant, Republican, said: "I do not care a cent about what the Pop- ulist majority have done. It amounts to nothing at ail. - The Republicans and the bolters are united in trying to knife Butler. They thirst for the gore of some otner Popu- wants co-operation with the majority and asks, "Who else are Populists 7" Brower Is a bird who usually "flocks by himself," but he Is a mighty frank speaking man. John R. Smith, of Wayne, says he wants to pour "oil on the waters." He Ms the Republican with a cinch on the penitentiary, but he wants to see the Populists and ttepuDiicans once more eating out of the same trough. At the residence of Chief of Police Heartt his daughter. Miss Fannie, was quietly married this morning to Mr. Francis E. Hall, of Richmond, Rev Dr. Eugene Daniel, the Presbyterian pas tor, officiating. Grant says tbe Republicans are done with caucuses on tbe co-operation ques tion. He says Butler wants to put some kind of feather in his cap before he leaves Raleigh. Secretary of State Cy. Thompson ought to deny the statement which was made to-day that up to tbe very night before he was nominated for Senator, he came and went between the Popu lists and Republicans. A Republican said this of him. The members of the Legislature were delighted with their visit to the Univer sity yesterday. It is said one of them thought the buildings, etc., private property. Senator Butler's paper to-day Is red hot. To-night the minority Populists, com monly known as the bolters, met an Is sued, an address. It Is of great length. In it thy.say: The PopnUSlg wno lerc me caucus 01 sembly desire to present to the "PSpa-l lists of the State some facts and senti ments which are of great Importance to our party. Our position on the senato rial question is justified by every rea sonable Populist, by every precedent , in the party's past history, and the very existence of the party, we think, de pends upon the policies and principles and persons we have the honor to rep resent. We have been so unjustly mis represented and so basely viUified, our motives and actions have been so vilely misconstrued by unscrupulous Demo crats and by the Butler Populists, oth erwise known as the majority, that we deem a few words necessary in order to allow the truth to prevail. We are pio neer Populists and we allow no man to misinterpret our loyalty t our party.y, our principles and our State; but we regret to say that some of our leaders are practicing the worst species of boss Ism that ever disgraced North Caro lina, and we deem it our duty to pro test against such tyranny." The address then gives the proceed ings of the first caucus of the Populists and all that occurred while both factions- were in harmony. : The bolters then reiterate their pledge to , support Senator Pritchard and say they are willing to stand by the endorsement of their constituents. Continuing, the ad dress says: "It is due quite a number of gentle men who voted for Cyras Thompson tn ,ir that thn nnt ndnr ttiii dii. bollcal scheme of Senator Butler tc nsts in the State from the party, nor do they subscribe to bis efforts to land the Populists In the Democratic party. We hereby pledge ourselves that our con duct will be only such as becomes pa triots and true Populists, and we In vite the co-operation of all good Popu lists to secure for the State good gov ernment, and we will be glad to receive their support for any measure which will be for tbe good of the State." Senator Butler, tells me he will leave for Washington to-night. He is now In conference with Thompson, Fountain and Ayer. James M. Moody Bays to-night: "I will stake my reputation ; that', Robert Relnhardt will get the superlntendency of the penitentiary. Pritchard will pro vide for John R. Smith. The minority Populists are notified as to Relnhardt. Otho Wilson -1s terribly scared at the threatened .abolition of ' the railroad commission. Several bills to abolish It have been drawn Ig.
