The Senate Committee Hears David
sons Arguments.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-The Senate COM
mittee on privileges and elections this after
noon heard argument in the contested cleo
rion case Of Davidson VS.. Call involving
posses ssion Of the seat held by Senator Call
as representative of Florida. Senator Call
was not represented by counsel.
Gen. Hurton, counsel for Mr. Davidson,
in his argument reviewed the proceedings OF
the Legislature in elooting Senator Call, and
spoke of the certificate Of election to Mr..
Davidson.
Constitutional questions bearing on the
contest were quoted and commented on by
the counsel to show that the action
OF the legislature were illegal, and that the
election OF Senator Call was void owing to
the absence Of quorum Of members.
Precedents involving the use of the appoint.
ing powers by governors to fill vacancies In
the Senate we're quoted, as well as legal
cases touching the question. A long argu-
ment followed on the deflultion Of the word
legislature as applied to the organization
of the states legislative body and on the
question as to whether senator could be
elected without a joint assembly Of the
legislature. The election of a senator, the
counsel asserted, must be, according to the
constitution, by the legislature, and with
out regard to what preceded the election.
Senator Call rested his case without argu-
ment and the committee took the matter
under consideration,

NO WORD FROM OHILE.

Minister Montt Somewhat Disap-
pointed at HIS Country's Tardiness.
WASHINGTON, Jan. IA. - Neither the
President nor Senior Montt has received any
significant message from the Chilean gov
ernment to-day. None is really expected
now before next week. although no surprise
would be felt if some concilatory express
ion came before. Minister Montt, who insists
that the Chilean government desires peace,
and that it will prove it, admits that he is
disappointed that the definite and official
assurance of this has not arrived, as he
confidently expected by this time it would.
1t must come, he says, but may be delayed
until after the trial of the indicted men.
1t 10 said that the President has
determined to await the return of Judge
Advocate General Remy from California
with the full official report Of the inquiry
and bis own personal comments and obser-
vations before either sending the correspon-
denca to congress or an ultimatum to Chile.

The Embarrassed Cotton Firm Makes
an Assignment.
PHnADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 1.-THE en-
barrassed cotton and wool commission firm
of Joseph II. Coates 81 Co. of No. 1l6 Chest
nut street, this city, made an assignment
this afternoon to Horace II. Fritz. The
assignment is made by Joseph H. Coates,
Harrison B. Schell and John Walter Gum
mey Individually and as the fiFm of Coates
q Co. Besides the members mentioned in
the assignment Charles Y. Clsg
horn and Edward II. Coates are
special partners. The house is a successor
Of Edward II. Coates & Co. and Claghorn
& Herring. and has been rated at nearly
S500,000.
Messrs. Claghorn and Coates are said to
each have 100000 invested in the firm.
There are no preferences, aud no Judgments
or attachments were brought against the
firm, which has heretofore stood high in
the commercial and financial world. There
are three branch houses in the south,
which will. OF course, be included
In the assignment. The immediate cause of
the failure was foreign attachment issued
yesterday afternoon for $4,000 by the
Farmers and Mechanics National Bank
against the Washington Manufacturing
Company OF Gloucester. N. j., and Joseph
H. Coates & Co. Vice President Smoup of
the bank said to-day that Coates e. Co.
were the selling agents for the
Washington company, and were sup
posed to have property and money
OF the manufacturing company on hand.
This had been garnisheed. The cause of
the embarrassment is given as the demoral-
lied condition Of the cotton market. The
assets and liabilities Of the firm cannot be
stated at this time, but they will be large.

ANINCENDIARYLAID'LOW
CAUGHT IN THE ACT AND SHOT
TO DEATH.

The Cellar of a Boarding House En-
tered at Night and the Planks
Spr rinkled With Kerosene-No Re
sistence Made by the Negro When
Discovered and Fired On.
COLUMBIA, s. O., Jan. l4-For several
months the town of Laurens, this state, has
been the victim of incendiaries. Fire after
fire has occurred, thousands Of dollars have
been lost in smoke and the citizens have
been apprehensive as to whose turn would
come next. One OF the incendiaries met his
end about midnight last night. Lawrence
Thompson, a 20-year-old negro. was caught
almost in the very act of firing Mrs. Rich
ardson's house and was shot to death by her
son, ]. Oswald Richardson. Last Thursday
night Mrs. s. P. Richardson's boarding
house on Harper street was set on fire and
the evidences Of inoendiary origin were
unmistakable.
HER SON ON GUARD.
Since then, Mrs. Richardson's son, a
young man % years old, has been keeping
guard, staying up pretty much all night.
He had placed a breech-losding shotgun
loaded with buckshot under the back steps,
where he could get it conveniently if it was
needed. AS 1t was raining last night Rich
ardson concluded not to stay up. aud few
minutes before I2 o'clock went out to get his
gun. When he reached the rear of the
house he saw q negro go around the side Of
the house aud enter the cellar.
READY FOR ACTION.
Richardson got out the gun, but in doing
so made some noise. He went back and,
without being himself seen, saw the negro
coming from the cellar door. The negro
went in again, was gone several minutes,
came back and stood for minute or two
looking back. Richardson fired two shots
ana then thinking that he heard some one
running behind, went back TO look for
them. knowing that the negro whom he had
seen could not escape on account of the
high fence. Coming back in q moment
he advanced, thinking the negro had gone
into the cellar, but came upon him standing
behind the cellar door.
THE NEGRO KILLED.
Richardson then opened fire with his piss
tol. He fired five times, reloaded, and fired
three times again. Thompson died imme-
diately. There was found just within the
cellar quart bottle containing about a
tumblerful of kerosene, and some of tha
planks inclosing the cellar were wet with
oil. Matches were found on Thompson. An
inquest and autopsy we're held this morn
ing. The verdict was that the killing was
iustifiable. Richardson surrendered fmme-
diately.
Richardson, in charge Of the sheriff, ac-
companed by his counsel, B. W. Ball, came
to Colombia Tonight and motion for bail
will be made before Justice McIver to
morrow.

tion the speech described it as less favorable

it added, that there would be deficit owing
to increased expenditures.

presented his desires to Secretary
Blaine strongly to-day, he did not get
any direct and positive answer from him.
He received the information on which he is
going home-satisied that Secretary y Blaine

TYPssArTINa BY MACHINERY.
Report Of the Committee of the News
p9per Association.

paper Association.
NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-The committee on
machine composition, appointed last winter
by the American Newspaper Publishers
Association, presented a voluminous report
to the executive committee Of the associa-
tion IN session last Tues lay in New York.
The report in all its details. with numerous
appendices, will be published privately for
the exclusive use of the members Of the as
sociation. Following is a formulated sum-
mary of the conclusion Of the COMMITTEES:
The committee agree in stating,
]. That machine composition Is absolutely
practicable, and very much cheaper than hand
composition.
3 That, as between type setting and type
casting machines the latter are by far moro
preferable for ordinary newspaper work.
3. That so far as was revealed by this test,
the Rogers typograph produced the best and
most economical result Its simplicity Of con
struction was so great that IL was set up ready
Tor running In ninety minutes for five conSecu-
tive working days No machinist or other
party than the operator had anything to do
with the machine, and it ran smoothly. with
scarcely moments interruption for the entire
period OF the test.
4. That so far as revealed by this test. the
Linotype machine, while showing bursts OF
speed exceeding the capacity Of It's competitors,
YET, owing to the reckessnes of the operator
the absence OF any superintendent, and possibly
70 the Too delicate and complicated mec Ianisal,
fell far short in the general result Of accom-
plishing what had been claimed for It by its
owners
D. The Mcmillan machine while exhibiting
the highest typographical excellence Of it's com
position because justified by hand, nevertheless,
by reason OF the fact that requires thres skilled
workmen TO produce its results. it. is not 20 be
preferred on the score OF economy for use in
newspaper offices under ordinary working con
ditions.
g. The St John tvpobar WAS not entered as n
contestant, but Mr.. st. John courageously pre-
sented his original experimental machine on
exhibition only. Its popularity consists in
casting a slug limo by compression and without
heat. Tho novelty of this machine attracted a
great deal OF attention

FRANCE AND THE VATICAN.

The Clergy Ordered to Cease Op-
position to the Republic.
PARIS, Jan. l4.-The pope has sent a
special letter to the cardinal archbishop Of
Paris requesting him to instruct the French
clergy to cease all opposition to the repub-
lie, and to follow to the utmost the pope's
policy of conciliation. The sending of this
letter is due TO the satisfactory interviews
that have taken place recently between his
holiness and Count Lefevre de Behaine, the
French ambassador TO the vat
ican. 1t is understood that
Count de Behaine assured the
pope that France would reciprocate .for
the instructions sent by him to the cardinal
archbishop by relaxing the restrictions
placed on religious bodies, and by allowing
more liberty in religious instruction.

Small Packages TO Go for Less Than

ATLANTA. Ga, Jan. 14.-To.day the rail-
road commission met. 1t was an in
teresting and lively session and its work is
fraught with great interest to the people
Of the state. The meeting to-day
was for the purpose of fixing
express rates under the power granted it by
the last legislature. What the rate will be
is not yet known, but enough has been
learned to justify the statement that when
the order is published there will 60 forth
howl from the express companies equal to
that made by the telegraph companies over
the recent circular in regard to the tariffs
fixed by the commission.
RATES ON SMALL PACKAGES.
One important item which the commits
sloners propose to do away with Is that
charging 25 cents for small packages. Here
tofore it has been the costom of the express
companies to require payment of 25 cents
for the forwarding Of small parcels, no
matter what distance they were to be trans
ported, whether one mile or 500. Under the
rates formulated to-day this will be changed.
Tariffs, it is authoritatively stated, have
been made which will hereafter be
proportionate TO the distance and weight of

sistant superintendent of the South
ern Express Company, was called
before the commissioner to present the
express company's side of the question. He
ASKED time to look over tire rates and hear
the objections that the corporation would
make This was granted, and Jan. 25 was
set as the date on which to hear and deter
mine the opposition that the company
would make to the proposed tariffs. 1t Is
