Division had been surrounded and
captured, and General Lee had ridden
to the front to lead the charge that
was to save the city of Richmond.
Lifting his hat, Lee was about to give
the command, when General Gordon
rushed to his side exclaiming ''To the
rear, General the safety of the army
demands it, These are Virginians.

AS the command of the gallant
Georgian rang out, the line sprang
forward to the charge, and two stall
wart soldiers Selling the reins of old

A few days ago, the students in the
Harvard University of Conn, painted
that town red, especially the college
buildings. They SO badly defaced one
of the principal statues in the college
grounds as to almost ruin it.
The strange feature in this business
is that there was not a bulldozing,
plantation hammered southern boy in
that school. They all were high toned,
moral, pious northern boys. They
were brought up in reverence of the
law and precepts of morality and ex-
cessive piety.

SPOKANE FALLS, Wash, May 15.-
Early this morning a fire broke out in
the three-story frame building occupied
by Peter Hanson as saloon and lodg-
ing-house, ,on Howard, near Second street.
The flames spread with alarming
rapidity, burning both ways. The
streams applied from hydrants would
not reach the tops of two and three
story frame buildings, and in short
time the entire row of buildings on
Howard, from the corner of Second
south to the alley, was in flames.
The firemen turned their attention to
preventing the flames from crossing
Howard street, but were unsuccessful,
number of buildings being gutted.
By this time the Silsley steamer
was at work and threw stream which
checked the flames on the east side of
Howard street, but the flames had
reached the Methodist tabernacle when
the fire was checked. From the corner
OF Second and Howard all the buildings
were destroyed upward to the taber-
nacle. Additional streams were applied
to the buildings on the west side, and
the fire was checked after many build
ings had been gutted.
Sam Fryor, one of the fremen, had a
narrow escape from death. He was at
work in the lodging-house over Han
sons saloon, and found a man in one OF
the rooms on the second floor suffocat-
ing. He started to drag him to one OF
the front windows, but the flames broke
into the room, and he had to abandon
the man to save himself and Jump
to the ground. j. B. Costello, a
lodger in the house, finding escape by
the stairway shut off, Jumped from the
second story. 1t is thought he received
severe internal injuries. May Mahr,
Hattie Thompson and John Seward, in
mates OF the same house, received severe
burns about the face.
The fire was caused by a bursting
lamp. The charred remains of man
burned in the Louvre lodging-house
were found in the ashes. 1t is reported
that an infant met death in the same
building. The exact loss is not yet
known, but will not be far from $50, 900.
Among the buildings wholly or partly
destroyed were the two-story buildings
occupied by Farmer Brothers for gro
Gerry store and secondhand store ;
Krapes's tailor shop, the Boston bakery
and carpenter shop, all with lodging
houses upstairs. The Methodist taber-
nacle was completely gutted, and from
the corner of Second and Howard all the
buildings were burned to the ground
DR.. j. E. Gandy's one-story frame
building on Second street, fifty feet
front, was completely Quilted.

A WALL-STREET TRAGEDY.
A1phOnz Stephanie Shoots His Mothers
Legal Adviser.


. New YORK, May ia terrible
tragedy occurred in Wall street this
morning. A vindictive young man
named Alphonz j. Stephanie, shot and
mortally wounded lawyer Clinton G..
Reynolds, Of the law firm of Reynolds
& Co.. No. SO Wall street. The mur-
derer had been but ten hours in the city,
having arrived on the steamship
Majestic from Liverpool.
The cause of the tragedy was as fol-
lows Stephanie's father carried on a
fruit business in this city and died two
years ago, leaving a wife and son, the
former as executrix. Alphonz carried
on the business, but converted much of
it into cash, depositing $4,000 with a
safe deposit company. He quarreled
with and assaulted his mother, and two
months ago went to Europe. During
his absence his mother consulted
Lawyer Reynolds, who advised attach
ments against him and the deposit COM
pany.
Alphonz probably heard of this this
morning on his arrival, and at once
went to Reynolds's office, where he held
an interview with him in the inner
office. Hearing shot fired, the occu-
pants OF the outer Office rushed in and
found Stephanie standing over Reynolds
with smoking revolver in his hand,
and Reynolds probably mortally
wounded, with a bullet just below the
heart. Stephanie was arrested and Rey-
nOldS removed to the hospital.

THE SUB-TREASURY PLAN.
An Able Argument in Its Favor offered
by the Farmers Alliance.

by the Farmers Alliance.
WASHINGTON, May 15.-The hearing of
the Farmers Alliance representatives
was continued by the ways and means
committee this morning, Mr.. Living
stone, national lecturer of the organza-
ton, taking up the argument. He
quoted President Lincoln's prophecy
that corporations would be en-
throned; that the property of the
country would be concentrated and the
republic itself overthrown. But
others had been. One-twentieth of
the people owned three-ffths of
the property. If congress refused
to approve the sub-treasury plan, then
let 1T remove the restrictions hedging in
the national banking system. The farm
ers would care nothing about trusts and
combinations and concentration ofmoney
if they could hold their crops in sub
treasures, and were not compelled, as at
present, to sell them at stated times. 1t
would be a godsend to the country to
pass the sub-treasury bill, for the rea-
son, if for no other, that there would
not be bucket shop left in the
United States. The day of specu-
lation in crops would be done away
with, and producer and consumer would
be brought together. Sixteen millions
would build all the warehouses the ALI
ance wanted. What good were the
river and harbor improvements to the
debt-ridden, oppressed farmer?
In conclusion he said that if the COM
mittee thought landed basis the best,
if they could not accept the crop basis, let
them put it in the bill. ''Do something
to relieve the farmer; don't make it a
question of tariff, but let the bill stand
on its merits.'

IN THE HOUSE.
A Republican Resolution to Muzzle
Debate on the Tariff.


Debate on the Tariff.
WASHINGTON, May 15.-In the house,
Mckinley, from the committee on rules,
reported resolution providing that
hereafter the house meet at IL o'clock !;
that after the reading of the journal and
the disposal of the conference reports,
the house shall go into committee of the
whole on the tariff bill; that the bill be
read through, commencing with para
graph Ill, and be open to amendment
on any part of the bill following para
graph 10; that Wednesday next at
noon the bill, with pending amend
ments, be reported to the house.
Blount, OF Georgia, criticised the ma
joaity of the committee on rules sharply
for reporting this resolution. After a
code had been adopted and all re-
straints thrown oyer the consideration
of the bill in committee, it was proposed
to set aside the rule governing the COM
mittee of the whole. 1t seemed the
policy of the majority that whenever
any matter was of magnitude requir-
ing debate and careful consideration
this rule should be suspended and
become nugatory. 1t mattered not
whether the paragraphs of the bill had
not been considered; it mattered not
that the measure involved the business
relations of all the people in this mighty
nation it mattered not that it involved
our commercial relations with all the
countries of the world, that it involved
one OF the greatest political issues of the
time; that it fastened a system upon
the people for years. The majority had
determined upon the measure, and was
impatient with debate. He protested
against the resolution as un-American,
unwise and violent to parliamentary
procedure.
Mckinley denied that the resolution
was purposed to .stife debate; it was
intended to concentrate debate on the
paragraphs and provisions of the bill.
The resolution was not to deny to the
minority the freedom of debate, but to
deny to it the right to delay public busi-
ness by dilatory motions and obstructive
tactics. The house had been given thir-
ty-five hours of general debate and fifteen
hours under the five-minute debate, and
it was to be given five days more.
Did the gentleman from Georgia remem-
Der that in the forty-fourth congress
but one day was given to the considera-
'tiOn of the tariff bill in the forty-ffth
six days, and in the thirty-eighth nine
days.
McMillin asked what would become
of the amendments offered in the COM
mittee of the whole and not disposed of
at noon Wenesday.
McKinley-They will fail.
After final debate the resolution was
adopted, 129 to SO.
The reading Of the bill consumed the
remainder of the day, and at its con-
clusion the committee rose and the
house took recess.
