The Tort.flcatlon bill was reported back twith amendments trom the committee on ,npprupslatlona and was placed on the cal endar. The ungent deficiency bill was taken up ,suid Mr. Teller addressed the senate. He held the dose attention lor over three Ihoura ot a large audience on the floor kind In the galleries as he delivered with great earnestness and eloquence his views .on the financial condition ot the govern ment. He held up to ridicule and con tempt what he called "the frantic ap- jgieals” ot the executive department, and jsald that those appeals showed that that branch of the government was in wrong jliands. He spoke of the Carlisle bill of fered In the house as a bill which for [crudities and absurdities had few equals iln this or In any other congress, and Said thnt If It had Dean iniruuucd by a member ot the Populist party It would have been regarded as the height of lu nacy. His own remedy for the existing condition ot things was to enlarge the •metallic basis of the country by the res. Itoratlon of silver money, low prices In jp-.o United States and in the world, he said, were the result of the demonetiza tion of stiver. He declared himself ready do Join In any compromise that was not .a base surrender and abandonment of sil ver as a money and by which stiver could be replaced in the monetary system of the United States, and (through Its agency) in that of the world. ' He was followed by Mr. lodge (Repub lican) of Massachusetts, who announced his hostility to an Income tax, not only fcecmuau It was bad In Itself, but because ft was a great step toward the ruin of the protective system; and by Mr. Stewnrt (Populist) of Novada, who saw in the full restoration of stiver as money the only possible remedy for the existing financial .troubles.

The eftort met successful objection, and tho (hour allotted for Its consideration expired [before a vote was reached. The divisions lof the house upon preliminary questions 'showed an overwhelming majority In Its .favor, so that Us passage when again It (comes up ssoms to ho assured. Previous to the discussion upon the oleomargarine bill, Mr. Kem (Populist) of Nebraska presented a resolution asking tha secretary of agriculture to give to the drought-stricken regions of ■ the Northwest as much as possible of the quota of seeds allowed to him, the dis tribution to be made through the regu larly appointed relief committees of the rseveral states, but objection was made, ‘and It was referred.

Mr. CooiUdgu Thinks the (Movement Is Perfectly Natural. Bouton, Mass., Jan. 12.—Resaidins the removal of cotton mills tc the South, Mr. T. j'effeneon CootJdge, treas urer of the LAmoskeag 'Manufacturing Company, says; "This Southern movement is perfect ly natural. Labor at <the South is a great deal lower than in tho North, the mills are nearer the cotton fields and there is a great saving in freight rates. Again, Southern roads take cotton as fifth class, while Northern roads take It as second and third class, making a big difference; then there is a great difference In fuel. Laibor, however, is the greatest saving, because operatives work more hours for 'lee* wages, and It is claimed a saving of 2 cents per pound can be made. The product of the Southern mills Is sent motitiy to Ohfccago and St. iLouis. “I think that Southern mills will In crease. We are hampered here by trade unions, strikes and legislation, mak ing it more difficult for us »to manu facture at a profit and unices the legis lature of 'VMaaftuchuaeftts, instead of doing all It can to injure manufactur ers, turns around and assists them there will be a further loss of business. Fine goods can be made cheaper in the Sou til, as well as coarse goods. It. it is claimed that Southern operatives axe not as skilled os Northern operat ives, and that it lakes too long to educate them, but this is false. South ern operatives are Just as good In every ruapeot, and It Is only a question of time when fine goods will be made in the South."

A stormy serwion of ‘the caucus is looked for, and it is ndt unlikely that much bitterness wMl toe atoirred up, the ef fect of which may have to be settled by the legislature.

All indications are that Atlanta’s "Lexow" will have an Interesting time of It trom the outset of Its work, which begins next Tuesday. Chief Wright's charges which, If true. maJke Clerk Baker a stellar artist among the "hoboes,” are in substance, os fol lows : "Mr. Amos Baker was In the saloon business on Woodward avenue, near Terry street, Ithree or four years ago until the council refused to grant li cense allowing beer to be sold on that street.

He baa taken great pain* lathe seduction of his appointees, hearing every man who had O' word to say of any of the hundreds of applica tions that stiawiTed m jpon him for the feiv ilkieeS ait his disposal, and carefully reading through thousands of written re«j>imuianda.tloii*. The great stacks of documents of this chiracter plied up in tile executive oiiive is a monument ro rile goveanor's patient la bor on this partilculir horn of the di lemma of executive duty. In udditlon to the ordeal ho went through with the JtUDdreds of people who 'thronged itlie department, while rile appointment ware ending. Governor At kinson was aiao facyd by the scrutiniz ing eye of rhe cricluil public whlcb had beuu pfralswotly itold during the cam paign 'that he had cufiy a little coterie or “ring" to reward in tho distribution of patronage. NalutUly Ih'.a view, taken by a large clem cot, was not the least unpleasant iBblng the governor had ito bear In nelectlng his u;en for office. But at ovary aippoiniamaot those who had predicted that (lie governor would be <ontrolled or Influenced by his "coterie" or ring, wuro difiippbinied. It 1# a fact, frequently noticed by those who i kept In touch with the course of afTatrs while Governor Atkin son was 'making his (appointment, that the men who were expected \p be his most Influential advisers, were con spicuous by their absence when the cm.noils were held. This wtis so marked that there were some reports of a “drifting apart" between the gov ernor and his oM. life-long poitilcal companions. And those who have seen the records have marvelled at the ab sence of endorsements from (he fa- ■ m)l»ir, fighting men ot ehe Atkinson campaign. Tliey gave nobody the In fluence of tlielr personal relations.with the chief executive, but when It came to a question of (appointment they stood hands off and hold (he governor to name the men who would uphold his administration best without regard to personal preference* or relation#. This Is one of the romrirkaiWe feature# of (he new administration so for, Just its Governor Atkinson’s caenpalgn whs one of tbe mo*t remarkable in (he his tory of tin! state, and reflects the high est credit upon tbe men who helped him Into office. Had they seen lit to In- sia: upon .1 recognition of (heir services there might have been emlba# assment to tho administration and porsennl cstrangoments, but os they stood aloof leaving the governor entirely untram melled by any of their obligation*, the new ship Is now sailing in the emot’... cst waters, with all bands satisfied and pulling together for the good of the state. In discussing Governor Atkinson's rec ord In muklitg appointments the other day, a well known politician said: "I happen to know that the governor was not only given s clear field by those who might hive exerted a strong Inttn- ence with him In behalf of their friends, but I also know of several circumstances on account of their relations with him, that show how strongly he desired to act for the sole good ot the state and the party tn making his appointments. As an Instance of this what better thing could he have done, or what thing that would have bad less of a desire to nerve personal ends In It than to offer the of fice of state school cosnmlssloner to Gov ernor Northern, bis predecessor? While the tact that Governor Northen was the first man who might have had th* of fice Is not generally known, yet I know almost to an absolute certainty that It would have been tendered to him If ho hail been willing to accept It. “Then again. I happen to know that Gen. Evans could havs had on* of the best office*—that of adjutant general—In the gift of the governor had he been willing to accept It. I understand that In this ease the general wa* sounded pretty thoroughly end a good deal ot persuasion used on him. Now there could have been nothing but tho highest mo tives actuating the governor tn these Instances, and the fact that his nearest and dearest political friends stepped tnck nnd instead of using their Influence for political eud*. Joined him in strength ening hla administration, speaks volumes for their devoted friendship and patriot ism." URfBED THE NEGRO PORTER. Juror* (n tbe Out Case Had tbe News papers to Rend.
