FLoRIDA's LEGISLATURE.
Arbor Day Fixed-Claims for Services
In the Indian War.

Arbor Day Fixed-Claims for Services
IN the Indian War.
TALLAHASSEE, FLA. May !7.--Among tho
bills that have been passed there is one
making the Sth day Of January Arbor day,
in the interest Of forestry and the planting
Of forest, fruit and ornamental trees on
public grounds, school and church premises
and the public roads, and for instruction in
the valuable lessons to be derived therefrom.
The Hammond tax bill for the assessment
and collection Of revenue, has also passed.
The Senate has passed memorial to con-
g-ess to pass a law defining lawful money
and to establish its legal tender character.
The commissioners appointed under the
act OF 1889 to examine and settle claims
against the state for services rendered DUR
ing the last Seminole Indian war reported to
the governor on May Il, and be has submitted
it TO the Legislature This Indian war claim
matter is a complicated affair, of long stand
ing. There are different classes Of claims.
IL appears that warrants for each class are
in the hands Of various parties II is
claimed that fraudulent warrants to the
amount Of several thousand dollars are in
existence. The commissioners and the gov
ernor recommend such legislation as will
enable said commissioners TO speedily settle
this whole matter.
THE REVISED STATUTES.
The Revised Statutes provide that all cor-
porations, upon fling articles Of incorpora-
ton with the secretary Of state, shall pay a
fee Of 500. These statutes fix the pay Of
jurors at 81 25 per day, except in courts Of
justices OF the peace. They also provide
that in criminal cases, where costs are TO
be paid by the state to officers, they shall
receive only one-half Of the sums allowed by
law for such first costs.
The commissioners in their report say /:
1--WE have restored the provision
of the statutes prior to 1889, that
the inspectors appointed for each
polling place shall not all be OF the
same political party If practicable, a pro-
vision the propriety Of which 1t is sub
mitted is obvious. We have also inserted
provisions that no inspector shall examine,
read or handle the ballot Of any voter, or
speak to or interfere with any voter con-
cerning the manner of his voting or any
ballot he may vote, except as therein pro-
vided. With these provisions 1t is believed
that the statute possesses most OF the adj
vantages OF the Australian ballot system,
without the expensive features which the
stats cannot afford at present.
Nearly month ago committee was ap-
pointed 10 investigate and report as to the
status Of Florida's Indian war claim. 10 is
said that all the evidence is in. This being
true, report on this important matter may

charges filed against Senator Call, and

ex-senator are waiting with equal anxiety

NEGRO REsCUERs ROUTED.
Military Under Arms at Wilmington
to Prevent an Attack on the jail.

Military Under Arms at Wilmington
to Prevent an Attack on the Jail.
WILMINGToN, n. c., May 1T.-Several
negroes having been heard making threats
to attack the Jail last night and release Kit
Higgins. the driver of an omnibus which
ran over and killed little white boy named
Llston Chadwick, Sheriff Stedman, with
twenty-five wel-armed special depties,
took charge of the jail, and the police force
OF the city received special Instructions to be
on the alert. By 10 o'clock crowds of ne
groes began assembling near the jail. Chief
OF Police Hall, with detachment of police,
went TO the soene to disperse them.
FLYING COLUMN.
They moved from one point. but
quickly reassembled. This continued for
more than two hours, but there was no
actual violence and no feature of special in
terest until between ! o'clock and o'clock
this morning, when the negroes began
marching up and down the street in front of
the jail and afterward assembled in force
within fifty yards of that building. Mayor
Rlcaud, after a consultation with number
OF discreet citizens, ordered the military
alarm to be sounded from the fire bells.
This was done and the members of the
Wilmington Light Infantry came rushing
to their armory from all parts Of the city.
DIDN'T WANT TO FACE MILITIA.
This had the desired effect AS soon as
the first tap of the fire bell was heard the
negroes began to disperse. Twelve or if
teen we're arrested by the police, and by
O'Clock everything was squiet. Their armorY
being within 200 yards of the Jail, the
Light Infantry were not ordered out, but
were under arms all night The utmost
coolness and forbearance were exercised by
the whites, both officers and citizens. Not
shot was fred nor club used. It was
ascertained on searching the arrested
negroes that nearly every one carried a
pistol. Some of the negroes professed to be-
lieve that they feared an attempt would be
made to lynch Huggins, and said they were
on hand to protect him. There was nothing
whatever to justify such suspicion.
There are no indications now of further
trouble with the negroes, but as a measure
OF precaution the Wilmington Light In
fantry has been ordered to be at their arm
ory and remain all night
