OUR ORDNANCE.
How the Government May Yet Get Its
Big Guns.

New YORK, November 1S.-Congressmen
Hewitt, Hiscock, Cash. Phelps and Reed, a
committee appointed by Congress to report
upon the policy to be adopted by the Gov
ernment to secure supply of fordnance and
armor plate by esta blishing on it's own ter
ritory a plant for the fabrication ofcannon,
met to-day to accord hearings and do busi-
ness. In reply to a circular issued by the
committee to different manufacturers
throughout the country, asking if they
would be willing to enter into a contract
with the Government to supply material
for guns of the largest calibre, many letters
were read and number of gentlemen were
present and addressed the committee. MIR.
William Bispham, OF William H. Wallace
& Co., said there was no reason to-day why
the Government should not make it's own
ordnance, but the material should be i'm
ported from countries where it could he
purchased cheaper than in the United
States. The latest developments were
that confirmed steel plates were
being used by the navies OF the world.
.'ShOuld we not be emancipated from de-
nandence on Great Britain?" asked Mr..
Hewitt. II believe" replied Mr.. Bispham,
s.that the Government should get all its sup
niles in this country; but our present need
ia 40 great and we are so completely at tle

ALLEGED LYNCHERS IN PERIL.
Thirty-three Prominent Citizens In South
Carolina Charged With Murder.

EDGEFlELD, November 19.-On the night
of September IA last w. H. Hammond was
assassinated in the yard OF Mrs. y. !.
Culbreaths house, in Edgefeld county. The
crime was charged to 0. T. Culbreath, the
husband of Mrs. Culbreath, who had ac-
,;.s4d Hammond OF improper intimacy
with his wife and had previously threatened
his life. Culbreath had treated his wife
with great curelty and had not lived with
her for several years.
Seven days after Hammond's assassina-
ton, while sitting in the law Office OF Gray
Evans, at Edgefield, who was preparing an
application for bail, Culbreath WAS at
tackled by two masked men, who shot him
down, and then taking him to the door OF
the office with the help OF confederates in
waiting, dragged him through the streets
and outside of the town, where he was
riddled with bullets and left for dead. Gull
breath was found next morning in a dying
condition, but helived long enough to make
an ante-mortem statement, in which he
identified William Parkham and Wyatte
Holmes as two OF his murderers.
Culbreaths g taking off excited widespread
indigna tion throughout the county, and
meetings were held denouncing the murder
and insisting upon the severest punishment
of the lynchers. More than thirty men
were arrested for alleged completely in the
crime and lodged in jail at Edgeteld, and
all the machinery OF law was set in motion
to secure their conviction.
Last week the question of admitting the
prisoners to bail was argued before Judge
Hudson, of Columbia. Ten OF the prison
ers were bailed in s., 2,OO9 each and the re-
naming twenty-three were kept in Jail to
await the action OF the grand jury. Among
the prisoners was State Senator Talbert,
| who was bailed ,and many other prominent
and wealty citizens OF the county,.
The Circuit Court met here on Monday
Judge Hudson presiding, and the draft OF
the Indictment against the alleged lynchers
seven counts, charging each of the thirty
three prisoners with murder, either as prin'
cipal or accessory, the first count charging
Parkham as principal and all the other de,
| fendants as accessories, and the second
count charging Wyatte L. Holmes as prin'
cipal and all the Others as accessories
| Twenty or thirty witnesses have been
sworn in by the State.

WASHINGTON. November 1S.-Chief Switz-
Ter, of the Bureau of Statistics, to-day COM
pleted his annual report on foreign COM
merce. 1t shows falling off in our foreign
trade during the last fiscal year OF $92,-
251, ,921. Comparing ourforeign commerce
with that of other nations, Great Britain
stands first, Germany second, France third
and the United States fourth. The notable
features of our foreign trade during the last
fiscal year as compared with the trade oi
1884 was a decrease in imports OF merchan-
disc of $50, ,OOO, 900, and a falling "fi IL
ports of gold of $32, 100000. The decrease
occurred mainly in imports of sugar and
mOlasses, silks, wool, manufactures OF silk
wool, iron and steel. Great Britain not
only takes about 60 per cent OF our agri
cultural and manufactured products, but
also a larger share amounting to,27 per cent
of our manufactures than do Central
! America, the West Indies and South Amer
ica combined.
