r THE FINAL VOTE WAS THIRTY- EIGHT TO TWENTY-EIGHT. POPULISTS HELD OFF FROM VOTING. McEnery the Only Democrat to Vote For the Bill—Measure Will Now Go to Conference. The tariff bill passed the senate Wednesday afternoon, the vote being 38 to 28. This large majority of ten votes was due to the action of some of the populists and silver republicans in withholding their votes. But one democrat voted for the bill, McEnery, of Louisiana. There was nothing dramatic about the final vote. Just before it was taken there were some interesting explanations by individual . senators as to their position. Every¬ body was anxious for a vote and every¬ body seemed glad when the vote was announced and the end of the senate struggle reached. Speaker Beed, Chairman Dingley and many of the members of the house of representatives were in the rear, while every seat iu the galleries save those reserved for foreign representa¬ tives was occupied. The early part of the day was spent on amendments of comparatively minor importance', the debate branching into financial and anti-trust channels. By 4 o’clock the senators began manifest¬ ing their impatience by calls of “vote,” and soon thereafter the last amend¬ ment was disposed of and the final vote began. There were many interruptions as pairs were arranged, and then at 4:45 -o’clock the vice-president arose and annonneed the passage of the bill— yeas, 38; nays, 28 The vote in detail was as follows: Yeas.....Allison.

The first named would have voted for the bill and the last named against: Aldrich and Murphy, Chandler and McLaurin, Frye and Gorman, Gear and Smith, Hansbrough and Daniel, Hoar and Harris of Tennessee, Tburs ton and Tillman, Wolcott and George. An analysis of the final vote shows that the affirmative was cast by thirty- five republicans, two silver republi¬ cans, Jones, of Nevada, and Mantle, and one democrat, McEnery, total thirty-eight. by The negative vo’e was cast twen- |ty-five democrats, two populists, Har¬ iris, of Kansas, and Turner, and one silver republican, Cannon, total twen¬ ty-eight. paired for Eight republicans were the bill and eight democrats against it. The senators present and not vot¬ ing were: Populists five, viz: Allen, Butler, Heitfeld, Kyle and Stewart. Silver republicans two, viz: Teller and Pettigrew. bill Following the passing of the a resolution was agreed to asking the house for a conference, and Senators Allison, Aldrich, Platt, of Connecticut; Burrows, Jones,of Nevada; Vest, Jones, of Arkansas, and White were named as conferees on the part of the senate. Story of the Debate. The tariff debate began on May 25th, on which day Mr. Aldrich, in behalf of the finance committee, mado the open¬ ing statement on the bill. The actual consideration of the bill began the next day, May 26th, when schedule A, relating to chemicals, was taken up. The debate was continuous since that time,covering six weeks and one day. Mr. Aldrich’s illness took him from the chamber after the first day, and the bill was then in the immediate charge of Mr. Ailison. The opposi¬ tion has been directed in the main by Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, and Mr, Vest, while Senators White, Caffery, Gray and Allen have frequently figured in the debate. HOSPITAL FOR ASHEVILLE. Millionaire Vanderbilt Will Erect One For Treatment of Indigent Sick. Asheville, N. C., is to have a mam¬ moth hospital. The institution is to be erected and maintained by the Biltmore millionaire, George W. Van¬ derbilt, and is intended for patients who are unable to pay for treatment. All kinds of diseases will be treated, especially tuberculosis, and ailments that are contagious. A corps of ex¬ pert physicians will be in charge, and every convenience and comfort possi¬ ble for such an institution will be in¬ stalled. Mr. Vanderbilt will begin the project with an outlay of $100,000. BEER TRUST PROBABLE. Twenty-Six Breweries in Detroit Contem¬ plate Going Into One Syndicate. It is reported that the proprietors of the twenty-six breweries in Detroit are planning to sell out to a syndicate ■composed chiefly of English capital¬ ists. Nearly all the brewers have signed an agreement for the above purpose. The result of the combina- tion will be a rise in the price of beer from $4 and $5 to $6 per barrel. CYCLONE KILLS FOURTEEN. House* Demolished and Kttilroad Trains Wrecked By Wind In Minnesota. been'killed inThe^yelone °and ‘cloud- bursts in Minnesota Wednesday. The storm was general and it is impossible to estimate the amount of damage with .u«rot^2'a;»3, ,0 Z the worst that ever struck the state. The list of dead at Gloinvood, so far as known, is as follows: Toleff Lavan, Samuel Morrow, Mis. Samuel Morrow, Winnie Morrow and Oswald McGow- an. Others were fatally hurt. Trainmen say that a number of houses were blown from the founda- tions by their storm, and undoubtedly more lives are lost.. Railroad traffic is paralyzed because of the heavy fall of raiu. The rain came so suddenly and so fiercely in some places that many trains ran into washouts before they had any. intima¬ tion of danger. A bad wreck on the Great Northern is reported about eight miles west of St. Cloud, twenty freight cars being ditched. Charles Washburn was in- stantly killed and W. H. Pepper, the engineer of the train, was seriously injured. A freight traiu on the Chicago, Mil- waukee and St.Paul road was wrecked near Faribault and two of the crew were killed. Crops have been damaged to an irreparable extent, and a large amount of live stock was killed. Re¬ ports of washouts, floods and cyclones are being received hourly. Every rail¬ road in the state has some damage to the tracks and rolling stock. It is hard to even approximate the loss, but con¬ sidering other damage it will probably exceed $1,000,000. TRANSFEREI) TO GOVERNMENT. Monong’aheln River Is Now Open for Na¬ tional Commerce. The formal transfer of the property of the Mouongahela Navigation com¬ pany to the United States government was made at Pittsburg Wednesday aft¬ ernoon. The Monongahela river is now free to the commerce of the na¬ tion. The transfer was made to Assistant Secretary of War Micklejoan, who de¬ livered the warrant drawn on the United States treasury for the amount awarded $3,601,615.56, to President Donnell, of the Navigation company. The freeing of the river mean.' a sav¬ ing of $225,000 annually to the coal operators. The transfer will release nearly 10,000,000 bushels of coal which has been beld in the pools by the opera¬ tors to save lockage tolls. This coal will be carried down to Pittsburg at once. TIIORNE MAKES CONFESSION. He and Mrs.Nack Made Way With William Guldensuppe. A New York dispatch states that the positive identification of the man arrested Tuesday night as Martin Thorne, the alleged confederate in the murder and dismemberment of the body of William Guldensuppe, was made Wednesday. Acting Inspector O’Brien says that be has in his possession a full confes- sion from Thorne admitting that he • had murdered Guldensuppe and giving all the detaiis of the crime. Mrs. Augusta Naek, who is held as an accomplice in the murder, is in prison under a charge of murder and with a complete chain of circumstan¬ tial evidence woven about her. The detectives claim that there will be no trouble in convicting both parties. MORE TROUBLE FOR BEEESFORD. Fitzgerald Authorities Ask For "Me Lud*s M Arrest. Sidney Lascelles, whose meteoric financial career startled the sober- minded citizens of Fitzgerald, Ga., is again in trouble, it will seem. A number of telegrams were sent to Savannah Wednesday asking that Las¬ celles be arrested and held until an officer from Fitzgerald could arrive. The telegrams were placed in the hands of the Savannah detectives, but Lascelles could not be found after a search of the city. Several days ago Lascelles left Fitz¬ gerald, going to Savannah. The war¬ rant issued charges him with cheating and swindling. IIe is wanted badly in Fitzgerald, and if he is located, he will be carried back to his home to face the charges which have been pre¬ ferred against him in his absence. RUSSIAN CROPS RUINED. Excessive Rainfall Has Nearly Destroyed Ilay and Beets. The London Daily Mail’s corre¬ spondent at St. Petersburg says: The harvest prospects in Central and South Russia are growing worse and worse. Continuous rains are destroying the hay crops, while the exceptionally poor beet crop in Podolien has prac¬ tically ruined the sugar industry. The crops in some of the Baltic provinces also have suffered heavily from rains, and a significant sign of the gravity of the situation is the fact that an unusually severe censorship is exercised over news concerning it. SENATOR HARRIS SERIOUSLY ILL. Too Weak To Be Removed to the Tennes¬ see Mountains, As Proposed, A Washington special says : The condition of Senator Harris is preca¬ rious. During the heat of Wednes¬ day afternoon there were fears that iii his debilitated condition he would not rally again, but as the atmosphere be¬ came cooler towards night the senator regained partly what he had lost during the day. His proposed removal to mountain resort has been dismissed. RECORD OF GREATEST OF WAGE STREGGLF.S FOR A WEEK, | THOUSANDS OF WORKERS ARE IDLE. • Miners Are Jubilant Over the Situation So Far— Success Depends on West Virginia Diggers. Sunday marked the beginning of the second week of the coal miners’ atrike ftnd ftlready it giveB j )romi se of . bein . of . the reatest . . strug- g one S wage gles in the history of this country, The coal operators in the Pittsburg district and the miners themselves little dreamed that within one short week such an era of general auspen- sion could be wrought as now exists in the bituminous mining industry, Then the mouth of the many coal pits throughout the Mouongahela, Youghioheny, Allegheny and Peters Creek valleys, and the valleys of Tom’s and Miller’s Run were open and turning out thousands and thous- ands of tons of the best coal that en- ters into the competitive markets of the world, Now, all is changed. The vast cav¬ erns are like so many graveyards. On the hillsides basking in the shade there is an army of 18,000 men, who are anxiously waiting for more to join the troops of idlers. On nearly every railroad track leading to the mines there stand empty cars; apparently auxious to be loaded that their burdens may be carried to the ports along the lakes. The success that has attended the movement has greatly elated the miners and during the next few days every effort will be made to bring out the men in the few mines that are still working. This will be a difficult task, but they express confidence in fheir ability to make the suspension com¬ plete. From the best information obtaina- ble the Pittsburg operators are in no hurry to have the difficulty adjusted, so many of them having stocks on railroad sidings which they hold for an advance. Much of this was disposed of Saturday at a good profit. One prominent operator said that it would take another week to determine the exact state of the markets, and by that time a general cleaning up will have taken place. All interested will ready to begin business on a new and probably at a higher price. “This whole thing will result in a compromise,” said another prominent operator. “The operators are in a position to stand it for some time and I believe the miners are in aborff the same condition. It looks as if busi¬ ness will brighten up and in that event the operators will be able to get better prices and the condition of bus¬ iness and the condition of the miners will be simultaneously improved.” The effect of the strike is being manifested in the price of coal. An increase of 60 cents a ton was shown when an application was made for con- tracts and a number of Pittsburg op- erators, not being able to work their own mines, are seeking to buy coal in the West Virginia field in order to reap the advantage of the advance, Thore has been no intimation of lawlessness as yet in the region, but Sheriff Lowrey, of Allegheny county, has anticipated any trouble by swearing in 500 deputies. The miners say there will be no overt acts. No openly aggressive work was done Saturday by either side, but the mi¬ ners’ officials held a secret meeting, at which it is believed « vigorous cam¬ paign agaiust the New York and Cleveland gas coal miners, which will be inaugurated at once, was decided upon. The operators apparently are doing little and are saying less. How¬ ever, their confidence of defeating the miners has not abated in the least. DEMAND FROM AMBASSADORS. Turkish Government Is Asked to Not Ob¬ struct Peace Negotiations. Acting upon instructions received from their respective governments,the ambassadors of the powers at Constan¬ tinople presented a collective note to the Turkish government Friday de¬ manding a cessation of the obstruction of the peace negotiations. A SUNDAY SESSION Held By Conferee* of Home and Senate on Tariff Bill. A Washington dispatch says: The conferees on the tariff - bill held a four- hour session Sunday. The anxiety to reach a complete agreement as early as possible induced them to meet on the Sabbath and at present both the house and senate conferees appeared satisfied with the progress that has been made. Several hundred of the minor amend¬ ments have been agreed upon. Many of them were chauges of phraseology and on a large majority of these the house conferees naturally have yielded. COMPETITOR PRISONERS To Be Brought to Trial In Havana at an Early Date. The state department at Washing¬ ton has been informed that the cases against Competitor prisoners will be brought to an issue at Havana within a very Bhort time. It is expected that the cases of the Americans, Melton and Leavitt, will be separated from the others and they will be leniently dealt with the Span¬ ish antborities. SENATE HONORS HARRIS. Body Adjourns Out of Respect To the Bead Senator. I The Renote met Friday under the Sertofnarr’i^TTenneRsee 0 , thohad been one of the conspicuous iigures in the upper house of congress for over twenty years. The desk he occupied so long was not draped, as the senate had as yet no official knowledge of his demise. Rev. Johnston, the chaplain of the senate, in his invocation, referred feelingly to the loss the senate had sustained and spoke of his “rugged honesty, his unswerving attachment to his political principles, his opposi¬ tion to all he considered wrong, his devotion to his state and his service to the nation.” After the journal had been read, Senator Bate, of Tennessee, made the announcement of the death of his col¬ league. In doing so he paid a high tribute to the memory of the distin¬ guished dead. He spoke of the con¬ spicuous part he had played in his state and in the nation during his long and eventful career. He was the last of the great war governors, north and south, said Sen¬ ator Bate, who presided over the des¬ tinies of sovereign states during the stirring struggle between the states. Mr. Bate then offered the usual reso¬ lutions which provided for a funeral in the senate Saturday, to which the house was invited, and for a commit- tee of nine senators to accompany the remains to Tennessee for interment. Mr. Cockerell, of Missouri, offered a supplemental resolution extending an invitation to the president, mem¬ bers of the cabinet, members of the supreme court, the diplomatic corps, the major'general of the army and the admiral of the navy to attend the obsequies. Then, at 12:15, on motion of Mr. Bate, as a further mark of respect to the memory of the deceased, thp sen- ate adjourned. MANY DRIVEN TO DEATH By the Sizzling; Heat In Crowded Chicago, St. Louis and Cincinnati. A Chicago special says: Of all the hot days that have made life a burden since the warm weather of 1897, Fri- day was the warmest. There were more deaths of human beings and of animals and the number of prostra- tions was greater than upon any other day of the long hot spell that has hung over Chicago, Sixteen people are dead of heat, two are insane and out of a large number of prostrations ten cases are critical, Out in the Bridewell, where seven prisoners went insane Thursday be- cause of the heat, others suffered the same fate Friday. Three men either strong in the belief that a life of rectitude secured an eternal abode in some place less hot than this, or de¬ termined to be packed in ice at any cost—took their lives. Friday was a sizzling horror, there was comfort to be found nowhere—it was the hottest night Chicago has ever known. A Cincinnati special announces the number of heat deaths in that city Friday as six. Thirty prostrations were reported, with the usual quota of serious cases. The maximum heat by trustworthy thermometers for the day was 96 at 4 o’clock p. m. It was 81 at 7 o’clock in the morning, and it was 82 at 11 o’clock at night. The num¬ ber of deaths in the last seven days is sixty. Seven people died from the heat in St. Louis Friday. DYNAMITE’S DEADLY WORK. Five Negroes Blown to Pieces By a Hidden Bomb. While a gang of workmen were mak¬ ing excavations along a line of street railway at Lexington, Ky., Friday, one of them struck what appeared to be a piece of pipe, but which proved to be a sixty-four-pound dynamite cartridge. A fearful explosion followed and five of the six negroes in the gang were blown to atoms. The other was so badly injured that he cannot re¬ cover. The police are inclined to think the dynamite was placed there by some miscreant who had a grudge against the street car company; others think it was left there by workmen on the Cin¬ cinnati Southern some years ago when tney were making excavations for a road in the same neighborhood. Windows in the neighborhood were broken and several buildings slightly damaged. DEMANDS INDEMNITY. Senator Lodge Reports a Very Significant Resolution. The senate committee on foreign relations, through Senator Lodge, re¬ ported a resolution Wednesday author¬ izing the president “to take such measures as he may deem necessary to obtain indemnity from the Spanish government for the wrongs and inju- ries suffered by August Bolton and Gustav Richelieu, two naturalized American citizens, by reason of their wrongful arrest by Spanish authorities at Santiago deCuba in the year 1895.” The resolution further authorizes the president to “employ such means or exercise such power as may be nec¬ essary.” A CAMPAIGN ISSUE To Bo Made of the Lease of the North Carolina Railway. A special from Raleigh, N. C., says: Governor Russell says the lease of the North Carolina railway to the Southern is positively to be made an issue in the next campaign; that he does not know whether a plank de¬ claring against it will be in the repub¬ lican platform, but it will be in what he terms the voters’ platform. INTERSTATE COMMERCE SION SAYS RULE IS VIOLATED. DECLARE RATES ARE EXCESSIVE. The Case Is Similar to the Celebrated Social Circle Short Haul Contest. Its Nature Sweeping. The interstate commerce commis¬ sion, at Washington Thursday, in an opinion by Commissioner Prouty, ren¬ dered a decision in the case of Brewer & Hanletter against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company, Nash¬ ville, Chattanooga and St. Louis rail¬ way company, Western and Atlantic Railroad company and Central of Georgia Railway company. The commission decides that these carriers in charging on freights from Louisville to Cincinnati more for the shorter distance to Griffin, Ga., than for the longer distance over the same line to Macon, Ga., have violated sec¬ tions three and four (the long and short haul sections) of the interstate commerce aet. What the Deeinien Means. This is another Social Circle case, and the question deeided is one of far-reaching importance involving the relations of small towns to commercial centers. It is especially interesting just now because it establishes one of the propositions laid down by Mr. W. H. Brewer in his recent application to the railroad commission of Georgia for a reduction of 331 per cent on all freight rates in the state. One of the grounds of that petition was the allegation that the railroads were handling freight from Ohio river points to Macon for less than they carry it to Griffin. This is the second important deci¬ sion the interstate commerce commis¬ sion has made on the long and short haul claim of the interstate commerce act on a complaint from Georgia. The decision in the Social Circle case was affirmed by the United States supreme court after protracted litigation. It was a qualified decision, however, and the result of the new case, which is likely to go to the conrt of last re¬ sort, will be watched with interest. The principle is in favor of the small towns and against lower rates to the commercial centers and tends to put all communities on an equality. The president is now undecided whether or not to send in any message for the reason that a number of most important leaders of the party in the senate and house have made a strong representation to him of the inadvis¬ ability of sending a message to con¬ gress while the tariff bill is in confer¬ ence. WHOLE FAMILY CREMATED. None Were Able to Escape From Their Burning Cottage. A special from Pineville, Ky., says that Hugh Joeson and family of live, who live fifteen miles northeast of that place, were burned to death Tuesday night, being unable to escape from their cottage, which was fired over their heads. The dead are: Hugh Joeson, the father; Mary Joeson, his wife; Fanny Joeson, a daughter, fourteen years old; Joe Joeson, a son, ten years old; a daughter, eight years old; Maggie, a daughter, six years old. The remains of all six were found in the debris. The fire was undoubt¬ edly of incendiary origin, and the Bell county officers are taking steps to discover the guilty party or parties. BANQUETED AND DIED. . Quartet of Pari* Dressmakers End Their Li yes Together. A great sensation has been caused at Paris by the discovery that four dressmakers have committed suicide by inhaling charcoal fumes in a flat wherein they lodged. The four met in the evening, par¬ took of a sumptuous dinner with wine, sang and smoked until late and con¬ cluded life with the statement in writ¬ ing, signed by all: “We die deliberately and without any regret.” When the bodies were discovered the tables and floor were strewn with cigarettes and cigar ends. On the center table were letters addressed to their relatives. HIGHER WAGES OFFERED. Attempt Made to Forestall the Advance of Great Strike. The Pawnee, Kelley and Westville companies of the Danville, Ill., dis¬ trict posted notices Saturday of an in¬ crease of 10 cents a ton in the wages for mining coal. The object of this is to keep their men at work and thus break the back¬ bone of the strike. These three com¬ panies are the largest in the Illinois territory and upon the success of their move depends much of the sue- cess of the strike. REPORT ON C OTTON. Status of the Staple I* Given Out By the Government. The July returns for cotton to the department of agriculture at Washing¬ ton indicate an average condition of 86, as compared with 83.5 in June, an increase of 2.5 points. The average condition for July, 1896, was 91.5. The averages of the states are as follows: Virginia 87, North Carolina 10, South Carolina 86, Georgia 85, 8(), Florida 80, Alabama 85, Louisiana I’exas 88, Arkansas 88, Tennessee 80, Missouri 95, Oklahoma Territory 82, Mississippi 93, 31 and the Indian A GHASTLY FIND. Dismembered Body of u Woman Found In a Barrel. A special from Quitman, Ga., says: Jacob Wooten and some friends, while fishing Saturday on Mule creek in the upper part of the county, discovered a barrel buried upright in the mud and containing a human body. * The body had been cut into blocks and placed in the barrel, and mud had been thrown in, filling tfie barrel, which was then headed and buried. News of the discovery soon spread through the neighborhood and hun¬ dreds of people have visitedAie scene identity and viewed of the the ghastly body and rem^Bfe -tiling The connected with it are shr®ra ed in mystery. The swamp in which the body was found is a dense jungle, and the spot where the barrel was unearthed is a mile or more from any house. The neighborhood is thinly Quitman. settled and about fifteen miles from No one has been missing and none of those who have come from the scene can account for the mystery. Following so closely upon the fa¬ mous New York mystery of the mur¬ der of Guldensuppe and the cuttM* up of his body, the excitement tense. * “ Wooten and his friends fl%t remov-. ed the head of the barrel; then the dirt which had formed into a hard cake, and to their horror beheld a neaU plait of human hair about two feetJt belonging length, soft and the black, head and of evide^B yJH to a white woman.
