The Danville Inquiry.

Washington, 1.-THE first wit
ness exam ned by the Danville com.
mi'tee was VIM. Ruain, OF Dauyille,
Dsfore whoae Office the riot took
place. Ruff1n was the Trainer OF
the DanvilIe circular entitled,
coalition rule in D.nv.lle.' and
announced that he approved 1t, and
with the exception of a single minor
point inserted by another man upon
revision, he believed its statements
true. Ruffin was not In Danville the
day CT the riot; he was examined
regarding the condition Of things
sntec dent to II. He illustrated his
statements with a narration of mat
tiers within his personal knoWl-
edge. On one occasion when
some negro murderers had
been arrested he was passing
party of colored men on the street
and one of them was addressing his
fellows in very incorporate LAM
guage, abusing the whites in the
vilest manner. He wished he could
have a chance to shoot some id
white man; he never had q chance
to kill a white, and nothing on the
face of the earth would do him 80
much coed as to kill a white man;
he didn't care who it was. The
man at this took pistol out OF his
pocket aud just toyed with it. Aside
from the riot and attendant circum-
stances the relations between the
two races were of a most cordial ma
ture, as much 80 as was possible be-
tween the servant and employer
class any where.
Edwin Hill, oolored, testified that
he attended q meeting where a
colored speaker had recommended
that colored Democrats be saturated
(assassinated), when be thought
matters were taking personal turn
and left. Witness afterwards met a
man who claimed to have credited
him and the man "pulled off his
hat and his coat and his wescoat
and trowed EN- down and jes dou-
bled his han an rubbed it up an
down my nose an said he "I am
thare and I will drink yo b God or
20 mine, and I didn't present it an
l took it for granted he had feelins
toward me for voting de ticket" l..
D. Clark, a white farmer living six
miles from Danville, testified it was
q usual thing for negroes to 60
and a very rare thing for
white men to do so j. P. Peasants,
white, had heard negroes say "rhey
wanted to kill some id poor white
people Negroes were very i'm
pudent and generally armed.

FORTY-ElGHTH CONGRESS
SENATE.

Washington, 2.-Senator Maxey
has prepared an amendment
10 the House bill for the retirement
of trade dollars, which provides that
after January 1St, 'S5, trade dollars
shall be received at all United States
depo .itories, and together with all
half dollars, quarter dollars and
dimes now coined and in the trea
sury, or which may hereafter come
into the treasury, and all other sill
yer which, after said date, may be
purchased for coinage by the Secre-
Iary of the Treasury shall Re sent
to minis and coined into half dollars,
each of which shall contain
2e64 grains standard silver and such
coins shall be legal tender for any
amount for debts public or private.
1t provides, however, the secretary
Of treasury may in his discretion
continue under existing law the
co'nages OF quarters and dimes
which ehall however contain re-
spectively one fourth and one tenth
what standard dollar now contains
in standard silver and all said
quarters and dimes shall be legal
lender for all public and private
debts. 1t provides also for the issue
by the secretary of treasury silver
certificates based upon half dollars,
quarters and dimes thus provided
for in the same manner as required
by law in the case of the silver dol~
lar.
The Senate, to-day, after prelim.
mary business, resumed the c0nsid-
Grafton OF the education bill.
George made an argument in its
favor.
VanWyck said he had some days
ago offered an amendment to strike
from the bill the words, "nct sec.
tartan In character"
Blair said he was willing that the
whole clause containing these words
should be struck out.
VanWyck said it was q thrust at
the Catholic Church. He desired to
say the world was indebted to that
church from the time she preserved
the literature of preceding centuries
aud from the time when she estab-
Iished missions among the Indians
until now, when she was aiding in
educating the colored race. A re.
ligicn whose creed we might not
was preferable to nfidelity
hid under the mask OF liberal Chris
He rejoiced thot the gen
tleman from New Hampshire
(Blair) was willing these words
should be stricken out.
After an executive session, the
Senate adjourned.

The Apaches.

Washington, 2.-Information has
been received at headquarters Of the
army FROM the United States con-
enl general at Matamoras, concern
ing the Apsehes in northern Mex
leo, that little Charlie McComas was
killed by his captors. From talks
with Apache squaws at chihuahua
rece1u y captured by the Mexicans,
there can be but little doubt OF it.
Ju. it is said, is still alive, and with
about twenty bucks is not over 100
miles north of Chihuahua. 1t is re-.
ported in that country that if Gen.
erai Crook had supplies enough in
his Mexican campaign to have re-
NAMED in the mountains q fort
night longer Ju and every Apache
in these mountains would have
come In. General Crook was COM
PEELED to move too soon on account
Of the large number OF squaws and
children.

Cincinnati, 2.-One of the most
encouraging out ward signs Of the
supremacy of order has jdst ap-
peared in the removal of the barri-
cades in the streets about the court
house. At noon the first street Car
of Mt. Auburn line was permitted
to pass through, after being shut off
since Saturday night. The entire
military force will be withdrawn
to-day, except the Seventh regi-
neut, which remains until further
orders. The last revised list Of the
dead and wounded makes the dead
forty five and the wounded 1873.
While Main street and North and
South streets are open to public
travel, the barricades around the
jail and on Sycamore street are
etill in position. They are compar-
atlvely little interruption to b1Si~
ness, and they make it impossible
for crowd to press closely IN tue
Jail.
At the burial, yesterday, of
Adolph Meinking, tie one killed on
Saturday night, his father tainted
at the grave, was carried home in
an unconscious condition, and died
before this morning. -

Jail and court house. In N Any ac-
counts of Saturday nights mob re-
ference has been made 10 q red flag

munistic organization. 1t has been
asceltSiDed that this ensign had no
such significance, that it was flag
captured IN the sheriff S Off e, and
was used by him at auctions. It has
been determined to build Temporary
quarters for the criminal court in
the yard, to be ready in two weeks
The grand jury will assemble at
once, and provision has been made
for the accommodation Of all courts,
and legal business will proceed at
once.
One who was wounded in the riot
and taken to the hospital Uncon-
scious, name unknown, died to-day. 4
Just before death he rallied suffi-
GENTLY to say his name was William
White. This makes forty nine |
deaths. OF thirty-eight burial per-

OF the German Liberal party as a
new and important force in German
politics is daily becoming more evil

feTred at the time.
