they say, sixty mines having an an¬
imal output of 3,000,000 tons, em¬
ploying ten thousand miners, met at
Knoxville to protest against free coal.
Kentucky and Tennessee senators were
petitioned to vote against free coal.
The most noteworthy incident was the
reading of a paper by C. AI. Wood¬
bury, of Mingo mountains mines, ad¬
vocating free coal.

The supreme court at Jackson,Miss.,
has denied the motion of the attorney
general to resentence Will Purvis, the

by the bungling job of Sheriff Magee

populist editors and politicians. Be¬
sides the committee, of which John H.
McDowell is chairman, there were over
100 county chairmen of populist com¬
mittees. editors of populist papers and
members of the party in attendance.
The chairman states that there will
undoubtedly be a full ticket put out
for the supreme bench and for gover¬
nor. but is not certain about the pro¬
cedure to be taken in the legislative
question. Each county will probably
be left to decide for itself.

South Carolina. So says the supreme
court iu a decision filed at Columbia. ;
The case comes from Charleston, w here

for thirty days. An appeal was taken i |
on the ground that the punishment
was not legal except upon conviction :
bv a jury of twelve and that a sentence j
to work in the chaingang is void in i
law. The supreme court holds that
a jury under twelve is constitutional,
but that the sentence to work on the
chaingang that is null and void on the
ground this additional imposition
to “fine or imprisonment” exceeds the
limit prescribed by the constitution.

motion to close general debate on the
seigniorage bill at three o’clock there

votes in the affirmative and none in the
negative. Air. Tracy, of New York,
made the point of “no quorum,” and
the yeas and nays were ordered, The
vote resulted in a tie—81 on each side
—and Tracy, thereupon, asked unani¬
mous consent that the house take a
recess until 8 o’clock, which, under
the rules would be taken at 5 o'clock.
This was agreed to, and at 4:15 o’clock
the house took a recess until 8 o’clock

consideration of private pension bills
only.

ference thereon. At 1:10 Mr. Bland
moved that the house resolve it¬
self into committee of the whole
on the seigniorage bill, and that
general debate be closed in thirty min¬
utes, and demanded previous question
on his motion. A division showed
yeas 108, nays 1. Mr. Tracy, of New

rnond, of Missouri, offered an amend¬
ment to the rules which proposes to

count him as present to aid in making
a quorum. Referred to the committee
on rules. The resolution introduced
last week by Mr. Tauney, of Minne¬
sota, calling upon the sec

tion to go into committee of the whole
seigniorage on his bill, and that gen¬
eral debate be closed in thirty minutes.

nays none. The yeas and nays were
ordered and the vote resulted yeas
151, nays 4. Mr. Bland moved a call
of the house.
AVhen the house met Tuesday morn¬
ing it was still in a deadlock on the
Bland bill. Sergeant-at-Arms Snow
reported the arrest of seven members
—Apslev, Hilborn, Lucas, Marvin,
Gardner, Post and Randall—under the
order of Monday. They were all re¬
publican, aud on their coming before
the bar of the house, it developed that
they were present Monday, two being
absent by leave of the house. All
weie excused. At 12:45 o’clock Mr.
Bland moved that the house resolve
itself into committee of the whole on
his bill to coin the seigniorage of the
treasury bullion, and that general de¬
bate thereon be closed in ten minutes.

152: nays, 5; 12 less than a quorum.
After the reading of the journal in
the house Wednesday, Mr. Reed ask¬
ed fora report from tin'sergeant-at
arms under the order to arrest absen¬
tees. That official rejiorted all absen¬
tees either in Washington or en, route
hither, except those sick and excused,
and seven others who had been sent
for. Mr. Reed asked if any were un¬
der arrest. Sergeant-at-Arms Snow
responded that there were none. Mr.
Bland moved to take up the seignior¬
age bill and the years and nays were
ordered without division. The vote
resulted. Yeas, 159 ; nays, 10; which
was 10 short of a quorum. The voto
on the second roll-call was: Y'eas,
157; nays, 10; twelve less than a quo¬
rum. Mr. Reed made an effort to in¬
duce Air. Air. Bland to permit the
house to proceed with the debate, but
it was unavailing.

tine business the senate went into ex
ecutive session to continue the consid¬
eration of the Peekham nomination.

CONFESS THEIR GUILT.
Four of Howard's Witnesses Say They
Swore. Falsely.
A Jackson, Tenn., special says:
Another dark chapter was added to the
checkered career of G. T. B. Howard,
alias E. Ross, Joseph Leger and Wil¬
liam Lord Aloore, preacher, railroad
president and swindler, when four of
the witnesses in his late trial, E. H.
Brock away, William J. Gleason, Edgar
E. Smith and George H. Heatley, ap
pearecl * in the federal court.
They publicly confessed that
they had perjured themselves when
they swore in Howard’s behalf. The
young men told their pitiful story of
how, in answer to a want advertise¬
ment in The New York World in De¬
cember for young men to go to the
southwest, they first met Howard in
New York and his subsequent treat¬
ment of them. The sympathy of the
crowd went out toward the poor
wretches when Heatly told of the plot
which the wily sw indler had concocted
in jail and advised three of them to
get Brockawav out of their number
and out of the way for confessing.
* The listening crowd was struck
dumb with astonishment. Continu¬
ing he told of Howard’s plot to fur¬
nish them tools to break jail and ad¬
vised them to make way with Fred
Brown, the English clerk of William
Lord Moore, whose testimony was so
damaging to Howard, and also to slay
E. S. Bullock, the attorney who so
ably prosecuted Howard in behalf of
the government. This would have oc¬
curred had not the plot been discover¬
ed and he - Howard; moved to a steel
cage.

IT IS JUSTICE WHITE.
Louisiana’s Senior Senator Appointed iy
President Cleyelaad
And Immediately Confirmed by the
Senate- A Happy Solution.
A Washington special says: The
president has at last settled the su¬
preme court matter. He nominated
Senator E. D. White, of Louisiana,
for the vacancy and the senate im¬
mediately went into executive session
and confirmed him by unanimous vote.
Senator White himself knew nothing
of the fact that the president was con¬
sidering his name until the presi¬
dent sent for the Louisiana senator.
Mr. \\ lute called, accompanied by Mr.
Caffery, and remained in conference
with the president for more than two
hours. The president for the first
time informed Mr. White of his in¬
tention, saying that he believed he had
all of the qualifications for a member
of so distinguished a court aud asked
the senator if he would accept the
place. The proffer came so suddenly
and carried with it such a change in
Mr. White’s personal plans that he
asked for time to consider. Ultimate¬
ly, Mr. White gave an answer of ac¬
ceptance.
A HAPPY SOLUTION.
Within an hour from the time the
nomination was sent in to the senate
Air. White had been confirmed aud the
president notified. As soon as the
doors were closed Air. Pugh called up
the nomination and asked that it be
immediately considered. This was
agreed to. He spoke highly of the
nomination and said that it was a
happy solution to the trouble. The
fourth judicial circuit, consisting of
the states of Alaryland, Virginia, West
Virginia, North Carolina and
South Carolina, and the fifth circuit,
composed of the states of Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, Alississippi, Louisi¬
ana and Texas, made eleven states of
the union that had no justice of the
supreme court, while the small circuit
composed of the states of Ohio, Aliehi
gan, Kentucky and Tennessee had three
judges—Harlan, Brown and Jackson.
He believed this southern circuit was
entitled to it, but was glad the presi¬
dent had selected Air. White. Air. Pugh
moved that the nomination be confirm¬
ed. Air. Hoar seconded the nomination,
and speaking again later on said he
was pleased to see that young blood
was to be infused into the supreme
court.
The nomination of Senator YVhite
was a great surprise to members of the
house, but was favorably commented
on by every one. Southern members
were particularly well pleased with
the choice, and exchanged congratula¬
tions with one another. There was
immediate speculation, of course, as
to the identity of the gentleman to be
elected in Air. White’s place as a
member of the senate.
A LAWYER OP ABILITY,
Mr. White is a lawyer of marked
ability in the full vigor of life, and
will bring to the supreme court a val¬
uable knowledge of th& intricacies of
practice under the civil code, or code
Napoleon as it prevails in the Louis¬
iana courts, which will be of great ser¬
vice in disposing of eases arising in
the courts of that state.
Edward Douglas White was born in
the parish of LaFourelie, La., in
November, 1845, aud was educated at
Mount St. Alary’s college, at'the Jesuit
college in New Orleans, and at George¬
town college. He served in llie con¬
federate army, and after the close of
the war, in 18f>8, was licensed to prac¬
tice law by the supreme court of
Louisiana. In 1874 he was elected a
state senator and was appointed four
years later associate justice of the su¬
preme court of Louisiana. He was
elected to the senate to succeed James
B. Eustice, and took his seat March 4,
1891. His term does not expire until
Afareh 3, 1897.
