A Bit; RAID VT CHARLESTON
Tillman's Constables on a Hunt for
the Blind Timers.
Many Places Invaded, the Proprietors
Arrested and Their Stocks of Goods
Seized One of the Alleged Informers
Accuses the Constables of Perjury.
Most of the Accused Deny Handling
Liquors.
Charleston. S. C., Oct. 2.—Before leav
ing the state capital to attend the bimet
allic congress in the west. Gov. Tillman
pressed the button and to-day an army of
whisky constabulary, over 40 in number,
pounced down on this city and swept
through it like an August cyclone. The
raid, which has just commenced, so the
constabulary says, was well planned.
There had been rumors and prognostica
tions about what the state constables
were going to do to-day, but the public
was surprised when o]>erations did com
mence. Chief Constable Gaillard and
bis men assembled at his house on
Pitt street early this morning
and about 9 o’clock a march
was taken up. The constabulary was
divided into squads and spread itself all
over the city. They were at work till
dark and as a result of the day's raid
nine alleged blind tigers were put to utter
rout aud confusion and the proprietors
put under SSOO bail each. The first vic
tim was Vincent Chico, who was the first
man arrested under the dispensary law
in July last. At Sit Market street, the i-on
•tables halted and went in. The place
was seized under the same
form of papers that were used in
the previous case. The store and rooms
back of it were searched, and a lot of
rice beer, ginger alo and soda water
placed in barrels and carried away. Mrs.
Chico’s room was not invaded this time,
as Dr. Barbot certified that her condition
was such that any intrusion might be
fatal to her. Dr. Barbot informed Mr.
Gaillard that he had examined the room,
and that there was no liquor concealed
there.
THE SECOND VICTIM.
John D. Kennedy's place, at the corner
of Market and Archdale streets, was the
next point visited. Mr. Kennedy
was arrested and promptly
gave bond in the sum of SSOO
to appear at the court of
sessions. M. F. Kennedy is his bonds
man. Mr, Kennedy’s place was searched
and a number of barrels of bottled stuff
were seized. The fixtures were also
taken down, put in boxes and carried
away to the county jail.
On King street the constables entered
the restaurant of M. Hemme and arrested
the proprietor. A search was made of
the premises and the fixtures and all the
goods found were put in boxes and carried
to the jail. Mr. llemme promptly gave
bond m the usual amount, SSOO, and was
released. His bondsman is Mr. Aime.
Fritz Mollenhauer’s was the next place
visited, and here again, the proprietor
was arrested, and the place searched.
Rice beer, soda water and ginger ale were
found ami carried away.
C. F. Heins, corner Clifford and King
street, was arrested and his place cleaned
out.
Heslens’ place on King street near Cal
houn was raided and his fixtures, soft
drinks, etc., carted away. The proprietor
was put under bond to appear at the court
of common pleas.
The other victims were H. Nolte,
20 Vanderhorst street, A. Nolte,
keeper of the Turnvorein hall, and L. F.
Murphy of 64k King street.
Chief Constable Gaillard says he found
liquors in all the establishments. The
proprietors deny this.
WENT IN ROUGH SHOD.
The raiders went about their work
without gloves. The places were entered,
searched and conflseicated. Wagons
were employed and the entire establish
ment was stripped of everthing, including
soda water, ginger ale, rice beer, glasses,
crockery, show cases and other fixtures,
and even the doors were unhinged and
packed on the wagons and sent to the
jail. It is probable that several thousand
dollars’ woth ofnfixtures were thus con
fiscated. All the parties were put under
SSOO bond each. The raid was at
tended with a good deal of
excitement, but although the curses were
loud and deep no violence was offered the
constables. Each squad of the constab
ulary was attended by an officer and a
squad of policemen, and a largo throng of
people followed the various processions
around the streets and to the jail.
There are upwards of iso alleged
blind tigers in the city, and it
is said that Gov. Tillman has
left orders that every one of them be
stripped. The affidavits in most of the
cases are alleged to have been made by
persons not belonging to the whisky con
stabulary, and one of these affiants has
sworn out a warrant charging the con
stabulary with perjury. The excitement
in town is very great, but no violence is
apprehended. The raids will be resumed
to-morrow.
COTTON IN CAROLINA.
The Crop Probably Cut Down
100,000 Baleß by the Great
Storm.
Columbia, S. C., Oct. 2.—The great
storm that swept this state probably re
duced the cotton yield by 150,000 bales.
An average crop for South Carolina is
from 600,000 to 650,000 bales. Last vear,
with an acreage that was about 25 per
cent, short, 550,000 bales were produced.
The estimated crop for this year is 500,000
bales, and that, too, with an unusually
large acreage.
Caterpillars in Marion, Orangeburg,
and other counties have stri; ped the
leaves clean off the plant. All through
the middle counties cotton is'“frenching,''
that is, the leaves are dropping off.
The storm ruined the top crop, leaving
no younp fruit for frost to kill. Most of
the fruit on the plant that can mature
has done so.
No section of the state will yield an
average crop. The best yields will be in
the upper section, where the crop will
probably be 10 per cent, short. In the
lower and middle sections the damage
will be from 25 to 30 per cent.
Along the coast some of the cotton is
reported as still under water, and Will be
a dead loss. Along the Great Pee Dee j
the damage has been excessive.
The crop is two weeks late. Up to this j
time only about one-fourth as much has j
been received as there was this tin* last !
year. 31ie alliance has given orders to
the farmers to hold back their cotton and
instructions are being obeyed.

INTERNAL TAXATION.
Rumors That Important Changes Are
to be Recommended.
Washington, Oct. 2. —It was printed to
day that the majority of the committee
on ways and means bad decided to
formally report bills doubling the inter
nal revenue tax on beer, and to imi>ose a
tax on legacies, etc. These propositions
are before the committee in more or less
formal shape, but Chairman Wilson
is authority for the statement that any
report imputing to the majority of the
committee decisive action upon those
matters or any other, within the next two
weeks, would have no foundation in fact.
Chairman Wilson, in answer to a question
as to whether or not the tariff bill would
be reported to the House by Nov. 1, re
called the fact that in the Fifty-first con
gress the committee on ways and means,
which was appointed early in December,
did not report the McKinley bill until
tho middle of April, a period of four
months.

TRACK FOREMEN MEET.
The Cuts in Wages By the Railroads
Vigorously Condemned.
Atlanta. flu .Oct. 2 The second an
nual convention of the International
Brotherhood of Railway Track Foremen
of America met lien- to-day with about
100 delegates from various parts of the
country in attendance. The order has a
membership of over 3.000 and is increas
ing rapidly. Its members are the fore
men of the different construction corps of
the railways in the United States, whose
duty it is to keep in good ordor the tracks
over which so many trains pass every day
with their precious cargoes of human
souls. The association is made up of two
other orders, the Section Foremen of
North America and the Railway Track
Foremen of the United States, who con
solidated two years ago in St. Louis under
the name of the International Brother
hood of Railway Track Foremen of
America.
D. W. Cash of Georgia otioned the con
vention. introducing Mayor Goodwin,
who delivered an address of welcome.
Grand Chief John T. Wilson of St.
Louis then delivered his annual ad
dress.
THE Ct'T IX WAGES.
The feature of the public exercises was
a discussion of the recent cut in wages by
the various roads. G. W. Pearl of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers led
this discussion. He said if the railroads
were not organized it seemed strange
that it struck them all about the same
time to make a reduction of ID per cent,
in wages. He called attention to the
statement that the East Tennessee road
had lost a million dollars in a month, and
said ho did not believe it. He had talked
with railroad officials and had found out
that tlie men who were unfriendly to
labor organizations were the division
superintendents aud other little fellows
who wanted to work their way up and
be general managers.
G. W. Evans of the Order of Railway
Conductors also referred to the cut in
wages and said it was due to the fact that
the roads had to pay interest on a capital
three times as big as that invested in the
road. In every little town there is a rail
road lawyer and a doctor, but nothing
has been said about cutting their pay.
He wanted to know why all the officials
were kept and the men dropped, and said
if there were less inon there was need of
less officials to work them.
After the opening session the conven
tion conducted its business with closed
doors.

TIRED OF SNAER TALL
A Slim Attendance in tlie Senate
During Yesterday’s Debate.
Kyle Denies the Responsibility of the
Sherman Law for the Financial Cri
sis—McMillan Names Three Things
Which He Wants Congress to Do—
Dolph Mixes up the Tariff With the
Silver Debate.
Washington, Oct. 2 —The very evident
absence of a quorum of senators this
morning was called to the attention of
the Vice President by Mr. Wolcott, and
there was thereupon a call of the Senate,
to which, after some little delay, the
requisite number of senators, forty-three,
responded. The morning business was
then proceeded with.
The resolution offered by’ Mr. Teller
last Saturday calling for information as
to the purchase of the silver bullion in
September, 1893. was laid before the Sen
ate and agreed to.
The silver purchase repeal bill came
up) and Mr. Kyle read liis argument. By
actual count there were three democratic
sentators and eight republican senators
in their seats part of the time, and the
galleries were almost empty. At the last
the condition of the Senate chamber ap
pealed to the sympathies of Mr. Kyle’s
colleague, Mr. Pettigrew, and tlie r. sult
was that through the instrumentality of
a call, tho temporary presence of forty
six senators was secured aud the speech
was proceeded with.
THE SHF.ItMAN LAW NOT HESPONSIBLE.
Mr. Kyle took the ground that the
Sherman law was not in any way respon
sible for the business troubles of the
country, and that, consequently, its re
peal could have no such effect as the
friends of repeal claimed that it would
have. He appealed to tlie senators from
the south and from tlie west to stand for
the protection of their own states, be
cause their prosperity was linked with
silver and the other states; let them, he
said, make the defense in a manly and
courageous manner, not in tlie spirit of
sectionalism or of hostility to eastern in
terests, but in the spirit of “equal rights
to all and special privileges to none.”
He contended that as between gold and
silver, silver was the most stable measure
of commodities, that it wasjfolly to fritter
away time with an international mone
tary conference, that the hope of the
United States was in looking forward
towards a pan-American alliance; and
that the present contest was one of people
burdened with debt and fast sinking to
the European level, against the aggres
sions of moneyed corporations.
. M’tyJLLAjS, ARP VUS FOR HERBAL.
Mr. McMillan, rep., of Michigan, made
an argument in favor of the repeal bill.
He said that tlie argument that the
United States should continue the pur
chase of silver for the sake of silver
mining and kindred industries could not
stand. Silver had declined in value for
the same reason that iron had. The re
sult of closing the silver mines had been
to start work in the gold mines.
Whatever might be the evils of a scarcity
of money, the evils of an over nbundancy
of money were still greater. There were
many reforms which might be suggested
in order to make banking more service
able to the people; but by far the great
est part of the journey towards a sound
monetary system would have been taken
when congress should do these three
things:
First, provide for a currency, every
part of which shall always be maintained
at par with the world’s money.
.Second, provide for adequate banking
reserves distributed throughout the coun
try in accordance with local business
necessities; and
Third, provide a ready means of con
verting securities into cash, and cash into
securities, according to tlie need for a
more expanded or a more contracted cur
rency. If these things were accomplished,
the quantity of money might well I) 2 left
to natural business causes.
DOLI'II GIVEN TIIF. FLOOR.
Mr. Teller then took the floor to con
tinue liis speech begun last week ; hut he
yielded the fioor to Mr. Dolph, who ex
pressed his belief that the cause for the
present business disturbance was the
fear of hostile tariff legislation. After
talking for some time. Mr. Dolph got into
a wordy controversy witli Messrs. Teller
and Stewart on the question of free coin
age, in the course of which he asserted
that the advocates of free coinage did not
wantasilver dollar that was worth a
dollar in gold. They wanted a 56-cent
dollar; a cheap dollar; the cheaper the
bolter.
In further argument, Mr. Dolph de
clared that if the Republican party at
Minneapolis had adopted in its platform
a free roinago plank, the party would
have been dead and buried and damned
beyond the hope of resurrection; and Mr.
Teller countered with the inquiry
whether the party could bo any worse oft
than it now was.
At the close of Mr. Dolph’s remarks,
the repeal bill went over till to-morrow.
The House bill extending the time for
coneluding the work of the eleventh
census from Dec. 31, 1893, to J une 30. 1894,
and authorizing the commissioner of labor
to perform the duties of superintendent
of the census was taken up and passed.
The Senate at 5:30 o’clock proceeded to
executive business, and at 5:45 o'clock ad
journed till to-morrow.

Sept. 20, 1893. we inserted a card asking the
kind consideration of the stevedores and
merchants in our behalf, and tho fair play of
the majority faction of our union in deciding
whether headers should he elected or selected.
We also stated that a mcoting was to be
called that evening, and true to our statement
it was called, and the very things we appealed
against wore transacted, viz: headers were
elected, and had they rested there it would
have been bad enough, but they went further,
and have used a number of our names In
printed circular, proclaiming us as coinciders
with them in their movement, the same which
we emphatically deny, and assert that none
of us were elected, nor do we intend to have it
so understood, as they have used our names
without our permission, and every man of us
has determined to work the same as in the
past.
Respectfully signed by the following list of
headers:
Sandy Rhett, Robert Prlley,
John Williams, George Anderson,
Peter Brum, Dennis Simmons,
Harry D.Canniek, Benjamin Norman,
Edward Jackson, R. F. Williams,
Charles Bell, Collins Chisholm,
Edward Simmons, Tony Smalls,
