"Death TO Imformers."

AUGUSTA, GA, December l0.-Ies-
terday travellers along the Federal line,
at the point where it passes out Of
Lumpin county into Dawson county,
were Mortified TO find the dead body of a
white man hanging over the middle OF
the road from n projecting limb on a
tree, on which was fastened a card
reading: Death TO informers." The
identity of the victim could not be es-
tablished, neither is there any clue to
the perpetrators of the deed. The sec
tion has been terrorized for some time
by Illicit distillcrs and the victim may
either have been one of their own num-
Der, who was about to turn informer or
some Government detective.

Financial Failures in Tennessee.

GAINESVILLE, Tenn, December 10
The Franklin bank, of this city, sus-
pended payment this morning. The
failure was caused by the recent failure
of Henry Seafert, OF New York, large
tobacconist, with whom the Franklin
bank had been doing Il large credit busi-
ness. Liabilities over S20O,000, and as
sets exceed the liabilities by about S50,-
900. The directors hope for an early
settlement, but the prospects are dis
couraging.
Kendrick, Pectus IL Co., a large to-
baccO firm, made an assignment to-day
Liabilities, over S400,000; nominal as
sets exceed this amount. The suspen-
sion of the bank in which the firm had
large deposits, and the Stringency OF
the money market, was the cause OF the
assignment.
A run on the Farmers and Merchants
National Bank followed, and the doors
were closed. This was caused by the
other failures, but THAI institution Will
probably resume business in a day or
two. Great excitement exists in busi-
ness circles.

Window Approves the Customs Administrative
Bill

WASHINGTON, June 9.-Secretary Win
dom has made favorable report on the
customs administrative bill, and it will
probably be approved by the President to-
morrow.
Representative McRaeY of Arkansas, to-
day introduced in the House a bill provid-
ing for the free coinage of silver; for in
creasing United States treasury notes each
year to make the total issue thereof equal
in amount to the revenues of the govern
ment for that year; for the issue of treas
ury notes to replace national bank
notes surrendered; for the repeal
of the laws authorizing the sale of United
States bonds and for the accumulation of n
gold reserve of 800, 900, 600: and finally for
the covering of that reserve into the treas
ury as available assetd.
Senator Plumb today, reported adverse
ly from the committee on public lands the
bill to protect land claimants within rail-
road limits by permitting them to purchase
lands from the government at 81. 80 per
acre whenever it is held not to be within
the land grant to railroad company. Ac-
companying the bill is letter from the
commissioner general Of the land Office
recommending that the bill be not passed
for the reason that the interests of bona
tide settlers are sufficiedtly protected nm
der the present laws.

G. G. HaleSin Court,

MONTREAL, June &C. g. Hale, of Cleve-
land, o., appeared in the superior court
this morning on charge of shooting with
intent to kill his brother-in-law Eugene
H. Cowles, son of the late Edwin Cowles.
of the Cleveland Leader. There also ap-
peared Mrs Cowles and her daughter
Florence, whom nuns brought into court
on preliminary order. At the request of
Mrs. Cowles' attorney a writ of habeas
corpus for the production of the child in
court in legal form was issued, returnable
this afternoon. Cowles is resting easily.
but his temperature indicates septic com
plications. CoWles' condition is lmprov
proving. The bullet passed through the
right side of the neck between the internal
and external carotids, passed under the
chin below the lingual arteries, and frac-
tured the jaw and emerged on the left side.
Cowles was interviewed by a represen-
tative of the Associated Press. He af-
hrmed that what he had done was done
under the advice of the best legal talent in
the United States and Canada; that he and
his wife were in the way of an amicable
settlement and he deprecated BALES inter
ference. He expressed the warmest inter
est in his family, and only resented outside
interference.
Later in the afternoon Cowles an
nounced his willingness to surrender the
child to his wife and signed an order on
the convent TO that effect This probably
settles the abduction case Cowles' con-
dition tonight is serious, he having been
feeble from lung trouble before the shoot
ing. Hale is stopping at hotel with his
friends under the surveillance of officers.

1t was undoubtedly one of the most brilliant

but these guests represented some of the
grandest and Oldest names in the United
Kingdom. The dinner consisted of more
than twenty courses, and each guest
was supplied with menu, bearing his

and rubies.

to institute negotiations with Spain for
such notifications of the treaty with that
government as will enable American cattle
to be shipped from Florida and elsewhere
in the United States to Cuba.
The Senate silver bill was then taken up,
CoCkreil addressed the Senate.
He said that ali the business that could
be claimed for the proposed DILL was that
the secretary would be compelled 10 pur-
chase 100000 worth of silver every month
more than he now had the right to pur-
chase, and the currency would be increased
to that extent. He asked whether there
was any reasonable reason justifying the
continuance of the existing discrimination

Thoroughly Aroused Over the
Manner in which
THE SILVER COMMITTEE oNRULEs
Tricked them out of the Opportunity ofyotin
on the Bullion Redemption Feature
of the House Bill

WASHINGTON, D. c., June Especial
telegram to THE HERALD The silver men
are thoroughly aroused over the manner in
which the silver committee on rules
tricked them out of the opportunity of vot-
ing Ga the bullion redemption feature of
the House silver bull Dispatches have
come pouring in to-day on the Senator's
and Representatives of the silver states,
telling them to ''hold up the tariff bill
until satisfactory bill is passed." Many
Of the silver Senators and members are
ready to take this course, if neces-
sary, without any mandate from the
outside. They say that if they can
not have silver bill which
means an increased coinage of silver,
they are ready to adjourn Congress and let
the tariff BILL the appropriations and every
thing else go by the board. They charac-
terize the House bill as d device of Wall
street to demonetize silver and declare that
they are tired of being trifed with by the
Representatives of the east. In this tenn
per they may defeat all legislation by in
sisting upon free coinage and refusing to
accept any compromise proposition. The
bullion redemption feature of the House
bill viii probably be stricken out in confer
ence or if kept in by the conferees will be
stricken out in both houses, provided the
free coinage Democrats lend their assist
ance to the Republicans and are of the
same way of thinking.

IDAHO Is AGITATED
Over the Possibility that She May
Not be Admitted
AS A STATE OF THE UNION.
The Position of the Northwest on the Tariff
Will Aid the New States
Very Greatly.
AS A STATE OF THE UNION.

WASHINGTON, June Especial telegram
to THE HERALD. THE recent announce
ment in these dispatches that certain of
the eastern Republicans were looking
coldly upon the proposition to admit any
more new states at this session notwith-
standing the political advantage which
would accrue to their party from such ac
ton, have stirred up the friends of the
Idaho and Wyoming bills to renewed
activity. These gentlemen were rest
ing quietly in the belief that a
Republican Senate would do them justice.
They find, however, that the attitude of the
new state men on the silver question has
alarmed their eastern brethren and that
some of the latter believe it would be bet
ter not to increase the number of extreme
silverites at present by the admission of
other new states. Senator Platt, of Con-
necticut, the chairman of the territories
committee, while admitting the existauce of
this sentiment insists that both the admis-
sion bills will be taken up Immediately
after the silver bill shall have been dis
posed of, and that, notwithstanding the op-
position of the Democrats and the luke
warmness of the certain members of his
own party, they will be passed The argu-
ment which the territories people are max
ing IS that the extreme northwest, by
which they mean Montana, Washington,
Oregon, Idaho and Wyoming, is the only sec
tion OF the country which is safely Republi-
can. Outside of the question of lead ore they
have no direct interest, they say, in the
tariff. The Republican party may frame
any tariff measure they choose, and the ex-
IRENE western people will cheerfully sup
port it, In proof of this they point to the
recent Republican victory in Ore
gon as showing the unity of
the party there is sharp
contrast with the divisions which exist
among its members in every other section
of the country upon the tariff This agu-
ment is rather a fetching one with such
partisans as Hoar, Hawley and Chandler,
and upon it the proposed new states are
basing their hope of success.

American Tariffs and british Trade,

LONDON, June 9.-In the commons to-day
Vincent called the attention of the house
to the fact that the House of Representa-
tives at Washington had passed bill for
enhanced prohibitory duties on cutlery,
tin plate and other articles of British ex-
port. He asked whether the English gov
eminent, having regard for the disastrous
effect which the Senate's approval must
have upon Sheffield, the midlands, South
Wales and Belfast, would adhere to their
view that the free import system of the
United Kingdom precluded instruction to
the British minister at Washington to rep
resent to the United States government
the injury that such legislation would do
to the industry of friendly power, which
in 1889 gave free market TO e95, coo UCO
worth of American competing goods.
Secretary Ferguson said the govern
ment had not been informed of any i'm
portant alterations in the tariff bill.
Dillon spoke of the danger TO the public
peace from the violent and unconstitutional
action OF the magistrates and police of
Coshel and Tipperary at the recent meet
ings.
Gladstone supported Dillons motion to
adjourn.
Balfour said force was sent to Tipperary
to preserve order II anything serious
happened, the blame would rest upon those
who detied the government proclamation.
Dillon's motion to adjourn was lost.
