In the House Ray moved to
dispense with the reading of the
journal and on this demanded the
yeas, and nays, this being for the
purpose of seeing whether there
was a quorum present. -There
was a : dispute as to whether
enough rose to demand yeas and
nays and the reading of the jour
nal was called for. Fifteen rose
and the last vote was only 1. The
clerk was so slow in finding the
journal that Ray, Democrat, at
tacked him and this led Speaker
Walser to leave the chair and
attack Ray in a bitter speech.
Ray replied in a scortcher, but
said that he had not reflected
upon the Speaker. He denounced
the latter's language. Walsgr
then apologized and so did Ray.
Resolution to -expunge from

March 13, 1895.
To-day is the last day of the
legislature. , Adjournment will
surely come at 8 o'clock to-night,
for there is no quorum present
to-day and the legislature is still
in session only by consent to en
roll bills. " .' - ' '
It would have -been far better
for the f usionists, however, if
a
they had adjourned yesterday
for the proceedings last night
will give them the - blackest sdrt
of at! eye. The action of speaker
Walser was tyrannical ana un
fair in the extreme and 'gave
rise to sensation after sensation.
Tumult reigned and the whole
evening must have seemed to the
legislators present like a bad
dream. The minority was simp
ly run over. Two of the speak'
er's actions were unprecedented,
one was his voting in order to
make the necessary 1 number to
bring about a suspension of the
rules of the house. Smith ob
jected to this on the ground that
the speaker was ioroiaaen irom
voting bv rule 8. This made no
difference to Walserand he went
right on, rough shod, declaring
Mr. Smith out of order. Smith
her.ame so ansrv that it was
with difficulty that he was prev
ented by friends from attacking
Walser in the. chair. The other
ruling was to close the doors of
tno House ana noiw lei meiuuera
go out or come in. As this was
done -without a call from the
house it was unprecedented and
tyrannical in tne extreme. ,
- As it was. this ruling of --the
chair brought about one of! the
gravest and most . disgraceful
scenes that has ever been wit
nessed in the Legislature. A riot
was narrowly averted. Abe Mid
dleton, ' the negro door-keeper,
in following the speakers 'in
structions was standing within
the hall,- holding the door with
both hands. Capt. K. U. teenies,
and Mr. Lee, from Haywood, at
tempted to leave, the hall, but
. . r V i mi
were stoppea oy Aiiaaiewn. i ney
resented this and.. a struggle en
sued: other negroes rushed to
Middleton's aid and members
and spectators rushed to the der
fepse of Capt. Peebles. - In- an
instant there was a whirling,
struggling mass of vmen about
the door. Pistols were reacnea
for and there would undoubtedly
have been bloodshed had not the
door flew open and Capt. Peebles
and Mr. Lee .gotten out. .jar.
struck over the eve and
Capt. Peebles' arm was caught
in the door ana nuri. a rioiwas
mnat. fnrt.nnatelv averted, but the
incident will long be remembered

bean Sea to the Atlantic a ship
was seen coming out irom unaer
Cape Maysi, the eastern point

course with the evident object
of intercepting the Allianca, and
at 7 o'clock she hoisted the
orange and crimson solors, which
taken with ner buna ana general
appearance, left no doubt in tne

No sooner were the

the Stars and Stripes to be hoist

taff riail and dipped three times
in salute. The marine courtesy
waa returned in kind by the war-
shin, and the Alhanca's ensign
was unbent from its halyards and

The Protest Against the Douglass
. j Resolution.
There was quite a hubbub in
the House yesterday afternoon,
when Mr. Ray, of Macon, offered,
on his own behalf and in behalf
of those Democrats present, a
protest o the action of tho House
in passing Lusk's resolution con
taining "a pack of lies" in regara
to the adjournment in honor of
Fred Douglass. The protest was
couched in respectful language
and was such a plain statement
of facts that Mr. Gizzard French
was forced to admit on tho
floor that it was "technically
true." -' It aroused the ire or tho
Populists to a boilinjr point, be
cause jt stated tho fact that tho
original resolution of Crews to
adjourn at 12 o'clock, in honor
oi Douglass, was amended to
read "when we do adjourn" on
motion of Mr. Grumpier, Popu
list member from Sampson. Mr.
Johnson, Populist from Sampson,
wanted that portion oi tne protost
that referred to the motion of
his colleague stricken out. He
admitted that Mr, Crumplerdid
make the motion to amend the
Crews resolution to adjourn in
honor of Dbufflass "when we do
adjourn" instead of "12 o'clock,"
but contended that the Speaker
ruled Mr. Crumplors amend

said that Mr. Johnson was richti

identical words used by him, in
his amendment or suggestion,
are used in the resolution, shows
that Mr. Johnson and the Speak
er are tiuibbiinsr over twceaie

The material point is that tljo
Ponulist member offered no ob
jection to adjourning in honor of
Douglass he only wanted to
change the hour of adjournment.
In other words. Crews wanted to
adjourn two hours more anxious
ly to honor the miscegenationist
than did - Mr. Urumpier. Thai
