opinion that he is vested with power
10 regulate freight rates and, in com
pliance with the petition, lie has noLi-
it'd the officials of the Colorado Cen
trial of the date set for hearing on the
petition. Attorney General Manpin
has also expressed himself as concur.
ring in this opinion of Commissioner
Hamill. From this it would seem that
Colorado may yet be able to use the
state railroad commissioner for some
much more desirable purpose than sim
ply the drawing of good fat salary,

move will III least test his power to act

THE I.YCEUM.
Col. Hatch's Paper on the "POets
OF south Carolina"

Col. Hatch's Paper on the "POets
of south Carolina"
There was very iair audience at the
Lyceum meeting last night, perhaps half
of those present being ladies.
Col. A. T. Davidson's "Reminiscences Of
Western North Carolina" which was to
have been the feature of the evening, was
not read, on account of the unavoidable
absence of Col. Davidson.
In his stead Col. l.. M. Hatch read his
third paper on the Poets of South Caro-
lima, quoting from the foremost South
Carolina poets, and making a very en-
joyable essay.
The question of changing the constitu-
ton of the Lyceum so as to exclude the
discussion of subjects having religious
tendency was brought up by II. b.
Stevens, who said many persons had APP
preached him in regard to the matter,
and he thought the Lyceum should con-
fine itself strictly to matters of science,
morals etc, DR.. Davis, of New York, a
visitor, spoke on the subject, giving the
body some plain and interesting facts to
be considered in connection with such a
change in the constitution.
| Col. Hatch, F. c. White and 7. S. Cur
tbs also spoke. 1t was decided to leave
the matter open until next Thursday
night.
Col. Davidson will read his paper before
the Lyceum next Thursday night.

THE NEGROES A BURDEN.
THEY ARE WARMED OUT OF
OKLAHOMA.

An Organization in Existence OF
the "white Cap" Order to Turn
the Negroes Back Into Missis.
sippI.
WICHITA. Kan, March 13.-Serious
trouble is brewing in Northwestern Okla
homa between the whites and negroes
and while so far disagreements have
been evidenced by threats only, any over
action by either faction would lead to
an outbreak, which would prove disas-
trous.
In the neighborl ood Of King Fisher
there exists an Organization after the ma.
ture OF the White Caps, whose object
just now seems to be to turn from that
section the tide of colored people pouring
from in Mississippi Warnings have beer
sent the negroes, but they continue to ar
rive and now consider themselves sutfi
GENTLY strong to threaten back and they
have actually, so it is reported on good
authority, held meetings at which plans
for the burning and sacking of the town
of King Fisher were discussed.
The negroes are a heavy burden to the
taxpayers of the district in which they
have located. They have neither money
to live on nor desire to work. Both fac
tions are reported to be expecting open
hostilities.

RINGHAM'S SCHOOL.
The 9ite for the Location of ths
School Settled Upon.

poHs
A final adjustment of the Bingham
school matter is expected tomorrow.
Major Bingham says that the site of.
fered by the Ashevill> Loan, construction
and improvement company is the one Sc
lected.
A report having become current that
the Loan company was taking some un-
due advantage in the matter, George S.
Powell, president of the company, yester-
day offered, on behalf Of thes company,
to make gift Of ST. 500 to the school,
and to take $1,000 of Maj. Bingham S
bonds if he would locate on another site.
This Mai. Bingham would not do, re-
garding the site and the terms the best
proposed in the city.
In this acceptance Major Bingham gets
about thirty-seven acres OF land on the
west side of the French Broad, fronting
on the river, south of Parsons bridge
The price to be paid is $4, 200. For thir'
teen acres of this tract Mr.. Powells com.
pany paid $4, 200 about ten months ago.
Thus it amounts to donation to the
school of twentv-four acres by the com,
pany.
A survey of the property is to be made
at once, and before Major Bingham
leaves lie will give out the contract for
the buildings and improvements of the
grounds.
The minor details, such as the water
supply, ETC., have not yet been definitely
settled, but will be to-day or tomorrow

some Important Points Decided
by the Commission.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 13.-The
Interstate commerce commission to-day,
in an opinion bv Commissioner Morrison,
decided the case of Coke Brothers & Co.,
against the Lehigh Valley Railroad com.
pany. The points decided are:
1. Classification is not obligatory on
roads, but when misused the commission
may correct.
2. Beside terminal expenses there are
other considerations which justify lower
proportionate charges for longer dis
tances.
3. Several connecting lines doing a
through business can be treated as one
in an adjustment of rates.
4. The commission is authorized to de.
termine what rates are reasonable as
well as what are unreasonable.
5. The present system of grouping
mines in the Lehigh and Mahoney an.
thracite coal regions for rates east and
west subjects complainants to no undue
prejudice.
6. Rates which are now $1.7O, $1.4O
and $1.20 per ton according to sizes, are

PROVIDENCE, X. l., March 13.-The
democratic state convention yesterday
unanimously renominated John W. Davis
and Hon. William 7. c. Wardwell, Of

was renominated throughout.
The resolutions adopted reiteratc the
approval Of the St. Louis platform of
1888; demand free raw material for
Rhode Island manufacturing industries,
covering the necessaries of lite and add:
Rhode Island democracy does not ad-
vocate the possible theory OF free trade,
but believes in free trade with all coun-
tries. 1t favors honest money sufficient in
quantity to answer the needs of the peo-
pie. 1t congratulates the fellow.citizens
on the deliverance from tyranny of ex-
Speaker Reed and the threatening danger
of the force bill"
The platform also favors election by
plurality instead of majority
vote. more uniform franchise, free
dom of judges from legislative con-
troll and additions to executive power.

THE PITTSRURG FIRE,
The LOSS Will Reach Three Hun
dred Thousand Dollars.

PTTsBURG, Pa, March 13.-The great
Wood street fire was not entirely sub
dued until 4 O'Clock in the morning, but
the flames were kept within the bounds
of the Weldin and Germania bank build
ings. Both of these structures are COM
pletel ruined. As near as can be esti-
mated the loss will be about $500, 900,
upon which there is an insurance of
$225, 900. The heaviest losers are !. r.
Weldin & Co., Germania bank, and
Adam Reinman.
The Carnegies, chamber of commerce
and custom house also sustained heavy
losses. The origin of the fire is still a
mystery. There were two heavy explo-
sions of natural gas, but they occurred
after the fire had been discovered. No
lives were lost.
