The average temperature in St. Louis Saturday was 98 degrees- Thai "as not the government record of heat, l>ut it was the temperature the people in the streets had to eland.

NEW BOUNTY AMENDMENT n Temporary Stumbling Block to Tnriflf Mnkers. The senate Saturday afternoon com pleted the first reading of the tariff bill, administration sections and all. All effort to fix the final vote proved futile, and the bill went over till Mon B hfcn the senate met there was Some hope that the final vote would be reached bV night; but this was 8 je?dily dlSpeued by the storm occa sioned when Mr. Allison reported a new amendment from the finance committee fixing & bounty of i of a cent a pound on beet sugar made from beets grown in the United States. Mr. Jones, of Arkamus, speaking for the minority, tfoun too* Occasion to say that tttk Vole con Id bo reached ort the hill in the near future iu view’ of this bounty amendment, lie inti mated also that the debate would b very protrActed frtJfii ibis time for ward* Mr. Teller, of Colorado, supplemwn* ed this view. savin* the appoar nncM " f Mien an amendment at the last moment looked as though the republi cans were trying to delay th* passage of their own bit*. As it had become apparent tViUt tho bounty provision might cause serious delays, Mr.Tlmrs ton, of Nebraska, one of tile prime movers, arose end in impressive tones withdrew the amendment, saying liin action was inspired by patriotic mo tives and for the purpose of removing all obstacles to the.passage of the bill, and his colleague, Mr. Allen* immedi ately renewed the bounty prt*ph*dUoii; ho that the complicHtioli was the same as before. Later in the day Mr. Allison sought to have a time fixed for tho vote, lint tho bounty amendment stoCd id thb way and nil eppCitis to Mr. Jones were in Vfiiu. Mr. Allison finally gave no tice that lie would expect to puss the hill Monday or Tuesday. Besides the bounty amendment, Mr. Allison proposed later in the day au amendment for stamping bonds, dm lien hires, shares of stock, etc., which went over until Monday. Among the features disposed of Saturday wfiro the anti trust sections, the provisions of I the Wilson act on that subject being 10-enacted. ILLINOIS MI NEDS OUT, Two Thonsand Mcii nf Rpr'lnK Valley l,n.y t*H l’lck and MiovH. The 2,000 minors of Spring Valley, 111., quit their places in the mines and went out on strike Saturday. On aocortnt of this suspension the •"ompnny has not been able to stock up its customers to any great extent, which is decidedly in favor of the miners. The miners of Spring Valley are not in good circumstances and many of them will suffer if the strug gle is protracted. Telephone messages from Heaton - villo, I add, Marquette and other min ing camps in the vicinity report thrtt the miners at those places will join the national movement rtrtd there will hte J,OIV) idle men within six miles bf j Spring Valle-V, cx'chislvV; of LaSalle *nd lWu The men say they are de | termined to remain out until the juice |of mining is raised. Miners, many of | whom are in bail circumstances, j brought on by the continued reduc tions that have been forced upon them during the past, four years, have the sympathy of business me if. GEN. GOBJMMf DEC LINES. Sny* H. Will Not Bea Candidate Mr fJov ermir of U.-mßia. A movement was inaugurated At Atlanta the past week to induce Gen. •lolin B. Gordon to become a candi date for governor of Georgia next fall. A meeting of the General's friends was held at the Kimball house and a committee was appointed to wait on General Gordon to ascertain if lie would permit the use of his name as a candidate for the democratic nomina tion for governor. General John B. Gordon was inter viewed Saturday by tho Associated Press, and said: “Under no consideration will T be a candidate for governor of Georgia or any other office again. My political career is at an end.” Indorsed Chicago Platform. The democratic general committee of Erie county, N. Y., met at Buffalo Saturday and by unanimous resolution decided in favor of reaffirming devotion to the principles of the democratic party as enunciated by the national convention held in Chicago last July. PREPARING FOR STRIKE. Coal Coiihiiin<*rw Am Laying In Large Snj*- plle* In the Went. St. Louis coal operators, most of whom own mines in Illinois, are pre paring for the threatened strike anil so are consumers of the city. Orders enough have been received during the past five or six days to put in operation all the mines in the south ern and central part of Illinois. The St. Louis coal market was never in a more demoralized condition. It is doubtful if the miners of the Belleville, 111., district will quit work in a body. They are poorly organized and there is a lack of concert among them. Mass meetings are being held to determine on plan of action. FEW FAVORS FOR SOUTHERNERS. Not Many of Th*m Will Out Krrognition From llio Adinini*tnition. A large number of promotions were announced in the pension and war de partments at Washington Saturday. Naturally very few of the soft places go to southerners under this aminis trat.ion. Among the lucky ones, how ever, are Levi E. Johnson, of North Carolina; Paul Brodie, of South Caro lina; James Doyle, of North Carolina, and C. Walker Turner, of Alabama. ■I CAMPAIGN OPENS. A RED HOT TIME At THE FIRST MEETING AT SUMTER.

Th* ratrtpftiffn hi Soiilli Carolina for United States senator to succeed Jo seph H.

Irby ap peared at the start.

TrlV\ ci the very outset of his Hpeoch, began his fireworks display. Ho went for Senator McLaurin with out a thought of the gloves.

Things looked seri ous time and again. At one time Trby and M>T ibirln wcv' only prevented irom clinching by the interference of those on the stage. Irby, in his sjieech, applied the sever st, language to McT.nurin, and he '■amo to the front. When Irby rore the cheers for Mel aurin were deaf ening. Irby (baractorized McLaurin as a ring streaked, striped and speckled politician, lie charged him with din honesty, and with being guilty of treason and treachery.

Finally, McLaurin who had turned very pale, jumped up and faced him, saying, “Irby, let’s have an under standing light here. We have known each other some time. Yon cen’t ac cuse me of dishonesty. You can’t in ult me that way.” The two men faced each other* Irby replied that he had said it, and added, “I say further that if you hit me you will be hit back. ” Jrb.y went on to say that N. G.

When Irby finished McLaurin de nounced the charge that he was in the combine with Gonzales or anybody else as absolutely false. Irby retorted that he would prove it. No other candidates appeared,though Irby said that other jiledges would bo filed, and the fast and furious meeting ended. DODD LISTS I N DON VENTION.

TllU meeting wita under tlih tlusjiices bf tlie deinotrfttifi league of Kings couidy. Ex-Governor Altgeld said in part: “Today the moat wonderful nation on earth is io distress. Its children are suffering and it a foundat ion stones are slipping away. “A whole generation lm paid at tho war debt and lias reduced it by one half. Yet such has been the govern mental policy that today it will require twice ns much of oitr jyoducta to pay the remainder as would have been liebessary to pay it all wuen it wits Created. Being a producing and debtor nation it was crime to legislate exclusively in favor of the creditor classes of Europe and thus destroy the purchasing power < f our people. Every great abuse is intertwined with the money question and you cannot ignore it; for it fixes the limitations on enterprise and ma terial prosperity. There must ulti mately come a system of finance or ex change that will have a jdiilosophic basis and will not restrict- human effort. But until this does come wo demand the retro-action of the bime tallic system as it formerly existed in oitr country because it was the best thus far given the world. “The universal corruption that is today destroying our country comes from the concentration of capital and the alarming aspect is that it is prac ticed by men who talk patriotism and who stand high in the estimation of the public. It is idle to talk about purifying the government so long as men of influence and portion offer sums to corrupt it. Gut off the hand that offers a bribe and you will end corruption. BURNED MORMON CHURCH. South Furollnfnn* Object to Tlint Faith and Apply Torch. A conference of Mormons, led 1-y eleven elders, was held Sunday in their chnrrli in Fairfield county,S.

Tho Mormons held their meeting Monday in a bush arbor. SENATE AGREES. A Formal Vote Taken nn the Finance Com mittee Amendment.

The matter was under discussion at the cabinet meeting Friday, but not in a manner to lead to a definite conclu sion on policy, and the matter went over until their return to the city next, week, when it is probable that Mr. H.
