MORGAN FOR REPEAl
Alabama's Senator Wants the
State Bank Tax Off.
CULL0M AFTEB THE SINKING FUND
Morgan's Select debit Committee Reso¬
lution Discussed in the Senate and
— Morgan States the Purpose
of It—la the House.
Washington, Sept. 8.— The Evening
News publishes an interview with United
States Senator Morgan, in which he fa¬
vors the repeal of the tax on state banks.
He says he believes that no state would
proceed, except on conservative lines,
and with a view of making state bank
circulation as safe as national bank cir¬
culation now is. No state, he believes,
would allow the issue of circulating
notes by its banks without the fullest
protection to bill holders. The necessity
for the new medium, Says Mr. Morgan,
is occasioned by the growth of the coun¬
try.
In the Senate.
a bill was introduced by Mr. Cnllom and
referred to the finance committee, for
the repeal of all acts for the creation or
maintenance of a sinking fund.
A report was made from the commit¬
tee on privileges of $2,500 and elections for the
payment for to each of the three
claimants seats under the appoint¬
ment of governors, and it was referred to
the committee on contingent expenses.
The resolution for an i 1 o’clock meet¬
ing was offered presented, and Mr. Voorhees,
who had it, withdrew it, stating
thafehe did so after consul tation with the
friends of the repeal bill on the Demo¬
cratic side, who thought thatif the time
of the senate was occupied carefully and
conscientiously, aa much progress could
be made.
Mr. Morgan's resolution for a joint se¬
lect committee on finance was taken up,
and Mr. Voorhees having suggested its
reference to the finance committee, Mr.
Morgan argned against the suggestion,
that the purpose of the resolution
supercede tlie finance committee
and substitute the joint
ttee for them.
Ia the Honne.
There were not more than 100 members
present when the house was called to
order? Mr. Talbert, of South Carolina,
asked leave to introduce a bill for the en¬
largement of the volume of the currency.
Mr. Brosius, of Pennsylvania, ob¬
jected. The house then resumed consideration
of the new code of rule*, the pending
question being the Kyle amendment,
striking members from the rules the elause committee mak¬
ing 100 a quorum in
of the whole.
Their Motion Abandoned.
The committee on rules practically
gave up its motion to make 100 a quo¬
rum in the committee of the whole. The
authors of the rule voted against it.
The senate, by a very decisive vote,
referred Senator Morgan's resolution to
the finance committee.
A 2:10 p. m. the consideration of the
Voorhees hill was taken up, and Mr.
Stewart started CSn the second day of his
speech. Simultaneously senators and
spectators started for the doors.
A ROBBER^ CAUGHT.
Trainmen Prove One Too Many for a
ltandit Gang.
St. Lock, Sept. 6.—Another train was
held up Tuesday night on the St. Louis
and San Francisco road, tliis time with
the unique accompaniment of the cap¬
tured robber.
Express train No. 1 on the Frisco
westbound, was flagged with a red light
a few miles east of Pacific, which is
about 40 miles west of St. Louis. The
train came to a standstill and two men
held the engine crew at bay, while the
third went to the express car and de¬
manded admittance.
The messenger refused to open the
door. The demand then came from one
of the engine guards to “blow her open.”
Tliis demand was almost instantly fol¬
lowed by a deafening report and the
wood work of the car was wrecked.
Then three highwaymen joined forces
and tried to enter the car but were im¬
peded by wreckage.
The conductor and one of the brake-
men rushed boldly up to the robbers
with pistols drawn, and commanded
them to surrender. The robbers answer¬
ed with a poorly directed fusilade which
the two brave train men gave back with
interest.
Such unexpected resistance unnerved
the robbers. Two of them took to their
heels, and the thin! was overpowered
and made a prisoner. So far as known
no one was hurt. The prisoner gave his
name as Lenox, son of a farmer of New
Berg. ~

Soeond Day of the Doctors* Deliberations in

Washington, Sept. 6.—The second

sions of the thanks of the government,
represented for the honor of the invita¬
tion to send delegates and of hopes that

to the people of the American continent.
After tlie reference of resolutions to
the international executive committee,

this afternoon; “Quite a little stir has
been caused in southern social circles
over a dispatch from Central of Miss America Ida
