MEMPHIS, TENN, Oct. 4.-The mem
bers Of the various exchanges and COM
mercial bodies of Memphis held o mass
meeting at the Cotton Exchange, yester-
day afternoon, and after endorsing the
financial views of President Cleveland
passed resolutions condemning the dila-
tory course of the silver Senators in
their effort to prevent the passage OF
the bill repeating the purchasing clause
of the Sherman act.
The resolutions declare that it is the
sense of meeting of that undue DELHI
Grafton and unbusiness-like methods
prevailing in the Senate at time when
prompt action is so urgent and so vital
to the interests Of the whole country,
merit the unqualified condemnation of
all good citizens,
OF Senators Harris and Bate, the reso-
buttons say:
1.-THE Senators representing this State
have in the course they have taken been
derelict in the discharge of their duty
to their constituents and indifferent to
the interests of the whole country and
are helping to establish o precedent
which will enable minority to defeat 9
majority Of the people in the future.
"rhat In thus ignoring the wishes OF
their constituents they are assuming an
arrogance more becoming English lords
than servants of the sovereign people.
"That In offering the excuse which be
did for opposing unconditional repeal
Senator Bate stands before his con
stituents confessed politician.
"That we regard as fragrant dis
courtesy the conduct Of Senator Harri
in treating with contempt urgent ant
respectful Communications sent by thes'
exchanges in joint meeting"

by Mr.. Morgan, D., (Ala.), and went
over till tomorrow, instructing the
judiciary committee to consider and re-
port what provisions Of the law OF 1857

The Silver Purchase Repeal bill was

He replied to Mr.. Palmer's remarks of
yesterday, criticising the Senate for its
action,
Mr.. Butler said to that Senator That
the minority on the repeal question was
not attempting TO coerce anybody. but
that it did not intend to be coerced by
anybody. The Senate was not town
meeting but was great delilserative
body, intended to put veto upon hasty,
unwise and improper legislation. II
had been asked; "What was to be
done? 2"
His reply was, compromise" Com
promise is the solution. 1t had been

was spoken of the statement was made
that the President would not accept 3
compromise. "Whoeyer states that,

that high official great injustice, because
it is none of his business what the Senate
does. l do not believe that he has at
tempted to use his high office to influ
ence the Sena improperly"

ALLENrowN, Pa, Oct. 3.--Recoming ex-
cited with the problem of handling two
freight trains over grade crossing, this
morning, Watchman Thomas Baer gave
the wrong signal at o'clock at Catasauqua
which resulted in disastrous collision be-
tween I.ehigh Valley coal train and the
Crane Iron Company's shifting engine
with 20 oil and coal cars.
The Crane tracks run at right angles
over the coNFed Lehigh river bridge and
turn at the crossing over very short
curve where high bluff and buildings
obstruct the view from all sides.
The Lehigh Valley crew jumped and
saved their lives while the ponderous train
struck the crane engine sideways and
rolled it over.
Joseph Ray, engineer of the Crane
freight, was instantly killed, and Herbert
James, engineer of the Lehigh Valley
train, was fatally injured. Both engines
were completely wrecked.
Watchnaan Baer, realizing his response
bility, walked home, secured his revolver,
and shot himself dead under tree in hi;
yard.
