/ SENATE: A great many petitions
were presented, most of them being
from old soldiers praying for the re-
election of Senator Ingalls,. An effort
was made to recall from the House
the Senate bill preventing waiver of
appraisement, but it failed, as did
similar efforts to recall several other
bills. Several resolutions of minor
Importance were adopted.
House: The house did not convene
until two o'clock aud the afternoon
was spent in Ousting two Republican
members and putting two Alliance
men in their places. 1t was done in
q very summary way, the previous
question: shutting off all debate and
leaving the Republicans nothing to do
but to suck their thumbs.

WASHINGTON. u. c., March 5.--1he fol-
lowing nominations failed TO receive the

". Ferree, Edgar. Neb.; John Clinton,
Brownsville. Tenn; James Hill, Nlcks-
burg. Miss. J. NJ. Mclaughlin, Lynch
In the case of Beattie the nomination
was resisted by the Idaho senators on the
Ground that Beattie was an active partisan
of the Claggett faction, which sought 10
inyalidate the election of Senator-elect
Dubois. and finally Senator Farweli, a
warm friend of Dubois, caused q ialiure OF
tho nomination by q demand that 1t lie
over for day. which carried II over
March. Youngs nomination was bitterly
fought by a faction of his own party,
which sent a delegation here TO oppose II,
while in the case Of Hill, Colorado man
nominated for postmaster at NlcEsDnT&,
the Democratic opposition managed to de-
Law action long enough to cause failure
of the nomination.

GOLD BARS FOR SHIPMENT.
the Amendment Touching Exchange.
IRy telegrnrh 20 TIC nlsnatchl

WASHINGTON. d. c., March 5.-The Treas
ury Department has already been called
upon to act under the Sherman amend
ment 70 the legislative. executive, and ju-
dicial appropriation bill authorizing the
Secretary of the Treasury TO exercise his
discretion in the exchange of gold for
gold coin, and also TO impose d charge for
such exchange. Heretofore the statute
regulating this matter has been construed
by the Treasury Department as against
the imposition OF q charge. Under the
new law the policy of the department
will he 10 charge four cents per hundred
dollars value for all gold bars required for
shipment, and if this fails to deter gold
shipments tie question will then be con-
sldered rs TO the advisabllity of refusing al
together to exchange gold bars for ship
ment, thus compelling shippers to use gold
coin or gold bars from private parties. The
ruling TO this effect was first made yester-
dav on a teiegraphlc order for SG00,0jO IN
gold bars for shipment from New York.
The Director of the Mint, with the ap-
pruval Of the Secretary Of the Treasury,
directed that q charge Of S24O (or cents
per 2lO0) be made for the exchange but is
not yet advised as to whether the exchange
was made on that basis. II IS assumed,
however, that Il was. The Treasury De-
partment is in receipt OF advices from New
York 10 the effect that there will be a
heavy demand for gold bars for shipment
by steamers sailing for Europe saturday.

ceedcd in obtaining only minor oonces-

The stevedores. it is understood, will
follow tho example Of the dOck-labOrer3
and will resume work to-day. The union
ist laborers attribute their virtual defeat
TO belack Of proper federation of the
allied trades.
At Cardiff the coal-tippers are still out,
but they are seeking for some acceptable
compromise, and in.the mean time are
calling upon the engineers employed upon
railroads and dupon other labor unions TO 90

II am not at liberty to talk" was the
reply of Mr. r. Whitlock TO "A DISPATCH
reporter who asked him last evening If it
was true that the American Tobacco
Company had purchased his extensive
cbcroot-worBs, or had offered him $500 600
for tho business aud salary Of $4,000
per annum to manage It.
There was a report TO this effect going
the rounds yesterday ald the cautious
answer gwen would seem 10 imply that
there is foundation for the rumor, and
that there are negotiations pending which
look to this end. Other cheroot-men
were not il a position to confirm or deny
the story.
Mr. Whitlock expressed great surprise
that an intimation of the offer should have
Leaked out.n This transaction would
seem to strengthen the belief that the
American Company is buying up many OF
the largest cheroot- and plug ug-manufactOries
in the country.

WANTS TO BE JUDGE, PERHAPS.
An idea That waddin May he Seeking the
Auaellnte .Judccship.


The fact that Judge Waddill is remaining
in Washington for several days after the
adjournment of Congress gives rise to the
belief that he desires the appointments OF
Judge OF the Circuit Court OF Appeals Just
created.
Many persons think he islingering about
the national capital so as 10 be convenient
TO the President, and il is intimated that
he and some of his influential associates
may be giving the Chief Magistrate few
points in this matter. IL u said that the
ex-CongrcssmGn Will not be here until sun
day.
10 hns been an open secret for long
time that Judge Waddill has his eye on
the district iudgeship now held by Hon.
Robert w. Hughes. from which the latter
can retire in q few months with full pay II
he 80 desires. Judge Hughes and the late
representative from this district recently
visited President Harrison together, and IT
has been suggested that perhaps their In
terview had something 10 do with one or
the other of these judgeships, or perhaps
both.
II is understood that when Judge Hughes
retires he would like TO have his son, who
is q successful member Of the bar, favored
with an appointment on the United States
bench, and be and the gentleman from
Hcnrlco" may be able to effect an arrange
ment which, with the Presidents appro-
val, may be satisfactory to all In interest.

HENRlco DEMOCRATS ACTIVE.
a Club Formed Below Futon-Position OF
the Alliance.

Great interest is felt in the approaching
county primary and the candidates and
their friends are earnestly at work.
The election occurs on Thursday, the
26th instant. and the chances are that the
Democrats will turn out in ful numbers;
The contests for tho nominations for the
respective Offices TO be filed are being
pushed with great vIgor, but upon afrlend-
" basis. and tho result will be such a large
vote in the primary az will almost posi-
lively insure the success of the Demo-
cratic ticket in May.
What part the Farmers Alliance Will
take in the local fight has been matter Of
some inquiry and concern, but the very
general belief is that the organization Will
not interfere at all. but that its members
will cast their ballots as they think proper.
Doubtless 30 per cent. of the three hun
dred or more members will enter the pri-
mary.
There are now several clubs actively at
work IN the county aud others are helng
organized. A largely-Gttended meeting
was held last night at Bakers, Just below
Fulton. at which club was formed with
a good membership and full complement
OF officers. Speeches were made by
