Special Dispatch 10 The Intslligncer.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Feb. 0.-Tho re.
consideration of Senator Faulkner's
direct tax resolution was begun in tho
senate this afternoon, and it was
vigorously attacked by tho two Vir-
ginia senators. A motion was made
by Senator Daniel to refer the rcsolu-
ton to the committee on the judiciary
and directed much OF his speech to
the claims committee which had re-
ported the resolution. Ho $contended
that investigation might show that
West Virginia had never paid one
dime into tho United States treasury OF
the Sl53,000 she sought to secure by
means of the resolution under con-
sidcration.
By unanimous consent Senator Faulk-
her was given time in which to make a
reply. Ho maintained that the COM
mittee on claims was tho only one to
which the resolution could be properly
referred. He had made it special OBJ
ject in preparing his report to eliminate
from it all question OF the debt existing
between the two states, and the amount,
il any, for which West Virginia was Ii
able, rs in his Judgment and that OF the
committee, and also Of the attorney gen
eral, this was matter entirely extra
neous to the question at issue. Hc then
referred to tho statement of Senator
Daniel that it might turn out
that not one dime sof the $l53,0OO
had ever been paid into the
treasury OF the United States from tho
treasury OF West Virginia. Senator
Faulkner cited the fact that when some
$45G,o00 was allowed by the government
TO West Virginia as reimbursement for
money spent in equipping and paying
United States forces during the late war,
the amount due from tho state. under
the direct tax was withheld and the bal
ance only paid over to the state OF West
Virginia. In this connection he in
4uired, satirically, OF the senator from
Virginia il it was necessary that the
Sl53,OO0 should bes handled in a phys
ical sense by the treasury and the state
OF West Virginia and by tho treasury
again before it could be said that it was
paid from tho treasury OF West Virginia
into the treasury OF the United States.
Before concluding his remarks Senator
Faulkner yielded to a motion to 20 into
executive session, and will conclude his
reply tomorrow. .sf -stSt; ~ ~

every citizen in the faithful discharge OF
those duties and responsibilities which are
demanded of him by sGod and by society,
such principles and sentiments exert the
most salutary influences upon our whole
community. We feel deeply moved when
we recall the memory Of his honor's imme-
ciate predecessor, the lamented Adams, who
has SO lately been stricken down in the full
pride Of his perfect manhood by the hand Of
God and removed from amongst US. We
we're touched by the noble words of praise,
which, in his charge. his honor pro-
nounced. Judge Adams was
man whom the people of our whole
county loved, respected and honored, be-
cause of his sterling qualities as a man. his
high integrity as judge aud his faithful
and impartial discharge OF the duties Of his
high and holy trust as judge. No brighter
light has in the recent past gone ou' from
amongst us. His memory 10 embalmed IN
the hearts OF our people, in whose service
he was always faithful and true. We de-
sire further TO thank our worthy solicitor
general, Wallace W. Fraser, for his cour--
teous attention and for his wise advice aud
able guidance. Aud we congratulate the
people of our county, and Of the whole
Eastern circuit upon the reelection on MS

PARIS. Jan. PA collision causing
the loss of several lives occurred yester-
day, when the steamer La Normandie,
of the French line Generate Trans

and was between the two jetties, front

tug boat Abeille attempted to cross in
front of the bow of the big steamer.
The pilot of the La Normandie at once
saw the danger and gave word to
slacken speed. This order the engi-
neers at once obeyed, but the Abeille
was too close for the impetus
of the La Normandie to slacken

collision happened so suddenly that the
crew of the Abeille had no time to look
for safety. In moment after the La

Abeille disappeared, and the crew were
struggling in the water, except
those who were crushed and car

La Normandie stopped as soon as pos

The captain of the Abeille and four

The Store Operated by NIr. G. r.
Holmes on East Seventh.
Mr.George r. Holmes, whose large and
handsome jewelry establishm ent is at
al and 143 East Seventh street, has
been remarkably successful in his many
business undertakings since coming to
st. Paul. Mr.. Holmes was born and
reared in England, and while still
young man immigrated to the United
States in 1867. The following year the
mining Tever, which was at its highest,
attracted him to California, where he re-
manned Tor eleven years and gained a
moderate competence. The Northwest
then seemed TO him to present oppur-
tunlties to be found nowhere else, and
the close of the year 1879 found Mr..
Holmes in st. Paul. He first associated
himself with E. Lytle, in the jewelry
business. and two years later, seeing an
excellent opening on Seventh street.em-
barked for himself in his present loca-
ton. His start was made with moder-
ate capital and stock in keeping with
the same, but every year saw a flatter-
ing growth of his trade until today his
business is second to none in the city.
His stock now embraces a complete
line of everything in the jewelry
line. and its value is in the neighbor-
hood of SO, 1000. His speciality is dia-
mondS, and withal Mr.. Holmes is one
or the best connoisSeurs of precious
stones in st. Paul.

in the Germania Life Building.
Mr.. William H. Breen, the jeweer,
not only eXcels in his trade, but he is
one of the clty's most substantial bust
ness men and citizen. He was born
and reared in the city, and has the ad-
vantage of lifelong experience
and a wide acquaintance to
aid him in carrying on his
extensive and fashionable trade,
which is not confined to st. Paul alone.
as the name of ''Breen, the st. Paul
jeWeler," is familiar to to people in
every part of Minnesota. Mr.. Breen
learned the trade which he early took
fancy to, from Henry Smith, now de-
ceased, whose store was on Third street,
and who was master worthy of so eff
ticient pupil as Mr.. Breen. After six
years with his capable teacher Mr..
Breen embarked in business for him
self. His first stand was on Wabasha
street between Sixth and Seventh,
which he kept until year ago, when he
moved to his present handsome quar-
tiers in the Germania bank building.
His stock will rank with the finest in
the city, land, as has been stated. his pat
ronage is large ana liberal from all
classes and sections.
