By Southern Associated Press.
FRANKFORT, KY, May 26 There
is danger Of a meeting between two
members of the House of Repre-
sentatives as q result OF the most
exciting scene in the history of that
body. The house had under con-
sideration what is known as the
anti strike law, the object of which
is to prevent unlawful practice OF
interfering with traffic and trans
portation. Representative kremer,
of Louisville, favored tie measures.
Bolts, of Shelby, opposed the bill
During his remarks he referred to
him as potter's clay in the hands OF
the corporations. Kremer sprang
to his feet and likened Bolts tc
Judas Iscariot. He paced across
the aisle and branded him as liar
scoundrel and applied other cpl
thets. Bolts made move TOWARD
Kremer, utfriends prevented then
from clinching Kremer rushed on
of the hall aud returned soon with
revolver. Friends overpowereC
him and kept him in The Hous'
cloak room until he cooled off.

WHILE it is certainly true that the
amount of gold in Europe is much
too small for that metal to be the
only basis of note issues and as a
consequence there is great strug-
gle always going on to get gold, yet
we apprehend that the figures
printed by the Atlanta Constitution
with the view of elucidating this
point are erroneous and misleading.
The Constitution says that the paper
notes in circulation in Europe lex
Guiding France) was $2,4S2,OOO,OOO;
while the banks had only $53O,0OO,-
600 Of gold with which to redeem
them, making nearly five dollars in
paper to one in gold. In that year
the Bank of England had $780,
100000 of gold and had $780,
100000 of notes. The Imperial
Bank of Germany had $20O,UOO,OOO
of gold and $275, 100000 ofnotes De.
Quoting these, we find that accord.
ing to the figures of the Conetitu
tion the minor States of Europe had
$23O,OOO,OOO of gold and two bill
lions of bank notes. This does no.
seem reasonable, and we suppose
there is some error.

DR.. Longs Reply.

At the meeting of the State Medi-
cal Society DR.. Long in reply to the
address of welcome, made the fol-
lowing remarks which our Raleigh
friends will appreciate:
1t would make me proud on any
occasion to act as the representa-
tive of this Society. I have been
profoundly impressed at the singu-
lar hospitality with which it has
been received in it's migrations
from one end Of the State to an
other. The welcome which the
City Of Oaks has 80 graciously ex-
tended, through it's gifted repre-
sentative, touches responsive chords
IN our hearts like those which a
mothers welcome stirs within a
man who comes back to the Old
Homestead with his children.
This Society vas born in Raleigh
about forty-four years ago under
the auspices of Mckee, Haywood
Williamson, Strudwick, johnson and
other illustrous names [ cannot
now recall. We have multiplied
into a family of several hundred
and we return to honor the place o1
our birth. We respond gratefully
to every sentiment of welcome anc
to every beautiful word of praise
which has been SO cordially anG
gracefully uttered. We represent
majority Of the Counties of this
Commonwealth, and moro than 6
majority of the healing virtues TO,
the best citizenship on the globe
The forty-four years of our history
have not left US behind in the
march of universal progress.

A WASHINGTON correspondent re-
marks that Postmaster General Bis

in regard to the postmaster at

it. It makes us more hopeful OF
Bissell. Had he proved impervious
to criticism, there would be no hope
of amendment. We feel decidedly
better about him and perhaps he

AN anecdote is told about the
Rev. Byron Sunderland that is
worth printing. On the death of
Charles Sumner he delivered in the
Senate very long prayer, covering
Congress and the Senate, the flu.
neral train and everything else he
could remember. Afterwards on
the train, he bethought him that he
had forgot to pray for Vice Presi-
dent Wilson, then i'll in Massachu-
setts, and the following dialogue en-
sued
Mr.. Sunderland (to Mr.. ---,
Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune (?)) "Mr =,
l forgot to pray for the Vice Presi-
dent (Mr. Wilson,, now lying on a
bed Of pain at his home in Massa-
chusetts. Couldn't you insert these
words into the prayer now?"
Mr.. -. "No, DR.. Sunderland,
it's too late now. The Almighty 8
got the prayer and so has the Asso-
ciated Press, and it can't be helped.
The evening papers will all have it.
Besides, l don't feel much inclined
to do much about it, because you
prayed little while ago that the
Lord would palsy the hand of the
wicked reporter who slandered Zack
Chandler, and you we're mistaken,
Doctor, he did not SANDER Mr..
Chandler"
Suffice to say that the prayer was
not amended. "The Associated
Press had it.

THE other day we referred to the
advantage which New York enjoys
in money matters derived from the
deposits made in that city by the
banks of the South and West It
matters not how strin gent money
may l.e in the country, New York
always has more than her due share
and this has been the basis of her
ability to supply such large mer
camille interest When therefore
the New York papers boast that
they have money enough, and that
the South and West would have,
also, if they minded their business,
they but add insult to injury. New
York may have sufficient currency,
but large part Of it belongs to
the provinces The Evening Post,
speaks of the rediscounts which
the South and West have been
seeking, and says that the
tight money market IN New York
has been largely due to the
withdrawal of deposits by the banks
of those outlying sections. On May
IA, 1892, the New York banks had
out loans to the amount Of 1892,
100000, while a year later thei,
loans were only $42O,0OO,OOO, cur
tailment of 100000, or one
seventh. That is terrible course
of liquidation. But to account fol
it, the Post gives the amount due
by the New York banks to othel
banks as follows: July II, 1892
, $233,O0O,OOO; May 4, 1898, $16S,
, 100000, showing falling off o
$G5,O0O,00O in the funds kept i,
New York by outside banks. 1t i
this that has inconvenienced tn
New York money market, and if tn
9 country banks were to keep thei
b cash in their own vaults, New Yor
q would be the first to cry out fo
more currency. Bless US, how sh

The great quantity Of cosi re
quired by steamers recently sug-
gested to US the necessity of some
improvement in that line, and today
we see that Mr.. E. NJ Roberts, Of
the South Carolina Railroad, has
succeeded In making a device by
which large per cent Of coal can
be saved. About three tons Of coal
are ordinarily consumed in running
q train go miles on that road, and
with his device, only half ton is
required. So says an article in the
Charleston News and Courier
Again, we see that steamers are
now beginning to use petroleum
which occupies a comparatively
small space, and is not SO costly as
coal.

We have supposed that changes
would be made in such places as
collectors, large postofices, &C., at
the end of the fiscal year-June
3Oth, and in order that the appoin-
tees may get up their bonds, &c,
the appointments would be made
somewhat earlier. We may thus
expect some action at Washington
in such matters at an early day.

VIZ congratulate the Trustees and
officers of the State Normal and In
dustrial School on the successful
launching of their ship, which is
freighted with so many hopes for
the young women of North Caro-
lima. The hardest years OF any IN
stitution are in the early period OF
its existence. All things have to
be proved. And the usefulness OF
an institution can be demonstrated
only after ii has been in practical
operation sufficiently long for its
work to be known and understood.
We have not expected that this
institution would spring full grown
into the arena, but rather that it
would take four or five years for it
to attain the high standard of ex-
cellence which we desire for it.
Regarding it as departure from
the old ways, one that we do espe
cially commend, we have desired fol
it the largest measure OF success
and we hope that it will merit ano
receive the unstinted support OF the
entire State.
Too much must not be expected
from ary institution in it's infancy
let be founded on correct principles
and then give it an opportunity t.
develop before taking the measur
of it's possible usefulness.
We have reason to believe tina
this School has been properl
started it is being conducte
on the right lines, and that it wi
be of inestimable benefit to tn
women of the State, and thus exel
powerful influence on the futu1
of North Carolina. We congratl
late the trustees and officers on tt
progress made and wish for the
unbounded success.
