DID HILL APPROVE ITe
A BOmbshell Thrown Into the
Democratic Camp.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-A special New
York dispatch to the Washington Post
this morning says that Labor Commis-
sioner Peck, of that State, has issued his
annual report. and that in it he sustains
the claims of the Republicans that the
Mckinley bill is a benehcent measure.
This report, so the special says, is the
sensation of the hour in New York, as
Peck is Democrat and was appointed
to his present place by Governor Clevc-
land in 1888.
Peck is Hill follower, however, and
is one OF his closest friends.
The fact that there is no law compel
ing the Commissioner to issue his report
at this time is mentioned in the dispatch
and the further statement is made that
Senator Hill and Edward Murphy read
the report and passed upon it before 1t
was given to the printer.
The dispatch says additionally that
Mr.. Clevclands friends are openly charg-
ing Hill with treachery and that they re
gard it as fortunate that he has been un
masked this early in the campaign.
The publication of this item of new.
here has made the Republicans in the city
jubi!ant.
The belief is expressed that Pcck's of
fetal paper was suggested by Hill, wi c
wishes to thrust the tariff into the back
ground and so work the defeat of Clevc
land. B, trading Cleveland for the
State ticket, including the legislature
Hill will prove the statement Of his
friends made at Chicago and Cleveland
! could not carry the State of New York
and besides secure United States Sena
tor in place of Hiscock. This has been
quietly suggested for some time, but
Peck's report is the first tangible evi lcnce
that the state machine would sell the
national tickct.--Atlanta Journal.

August of this year saw heavy death
rate in the colored column, a total
of 2S. Of this number 9 were white and
10 colored. Twelve of the colored and
3,whites were paupers; 10 colored and 2
whites were adults.
This statement indicates the month ot
August as one of more than average
good health among the white population,
but it also shows an unusually heavy
mortality among the colored people. 1t
is also notable that the increase OF NOR
tality among the colored people is COIN
cident with the inception OF the water.
melon season.
According to City Clerk Young's books
33 deaths were reported in Asheville dur
ing the month of August. o! this num-
Der lS were colored and Is white. The
age of the oldest was 65 years.
The causes of death were as follows
Consumption of the bowels, 1; asthenia,
l; tuberculosis, 2; consumption, 3; pull
monary trouble, l; meningitis, 2;typhoid

phthisic, 2; remittent fever, l; premature
birth, 1; convulsions, l; tonsilitis, l
heart failure, /; other causes, 3.
OF the number 13 were natives of Bun
coinbe county, while the remaining q
were credited to other counties ant

reported, however, in August and all
