No Quorum in Senate.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3,-An i'm
preston gains the ground that the
present week will not be productive
of any important results in the
Senate, and the probabilities
seem quite strong that very
little of consequence will
be undertaken. Careful inquiry
developed that there is not at
this writing, quorum Of the Sena-
tors in. the city, but many who are
not here now, will arrive in time
for the assemblage. Wednesday
and Thursdays sessions will both,
in all probability, be brief,
and the chances are that on
Thursday and adjournment will
be taken until Monday of next
week. Ex-Representative Peel, of
Arkansas, who was for several
years chairman of the House COM
mittee on Indian affairs. says the
condition of things in the In
dian Territory, as had been
painted out by Governor
Fishback, ought TO be remidied by
the admission of Indian Territory
as a state. He is in favor of the
admission of the two states, one
comprising Oklahoma and the
other the boundaries of five civil
lied tribes. Representative Geary,
of California, says there is no doubt
that the tariff bill will be taken
into the Democratic caucus and
changed in some particular, and
says that it will pass. Geary says
the Mills bill was treated in this
way. He did not say what changes
he thought would be necessary to
make it satisfactory.

Chicago Meat Supply.

CHICAGO. Jan. 3.-The stock of
contract provisions January /,
1894, in Chicago, is less than one
half that for any similar date the
past decade, say $4,000 barrels
pork, 1000 tierces lard, and but
100000 pounds of ribs. Receipts of
hogs are generally lower than esti-
mated. The weight is less. The
shipping and export demand for
lard seems to keep close to supply,
with supplies at a minimum. Near
ly all futures are selling below
cost of production, based on cost
of hogs. The eleven corn states
are short Of an average corn sup
ply; they produce more than half
the hogs. We believe the packing
interest has about exhausted their
ability to further depress the mar
ket, and are willing buyers and
likely to enhance values 10 or 20
per cent. without difficulty. Pack
ing to date, 2,230,000 hogs, against
100000 same time last year.

John Lotion Desperately Wounded

BRooKHAVEN, Jan. 3.-John Lof-
ton, a white man, about forty years
old, was brought home late this
evening from the East Union COM
pany's sawmill desperately wound
ed by an attempt on his own life.
His jaw was broken and his mouth
and face horribly disfigured by the
ball from a Winchester rifle, which
he had placed under his chin and
discharged. Domestic troubles are
assigned as the cause Of the rash
act. He has a wife and children
on the Northeastern railroad and
it is reported he had recently mar
ried another woman near Johnston
Station without obtaining divorce
from wife No. |. There is no chance
for his recovery.

The Financial Outlook.

NEW YORK, Jan. SIT is a long
period since the old year has
closed under such serious conditI
ions as now everywhere prevail
Every country in Europe has il
troubles, worse than our own; and
they are of character so radical
that it will require time to hCa
them. In this country, the de-
rangements are acute, but they are
of a kind more directly under our
own control than are those of the
European nations. In our case,
there had been no aDtecedent over
trading, nor excessive speculation,
nor general unsoundness of credit,
On the contrary, 1898 opened with
a generally sound and fairly pros
porous condition of business; and
although the panic was of perhaps
unequalled severity, yet is was
due to causes not inherent to busia.
ness proper but outside of busint
and connected with a great alaI
about the condition of our curr
cy system. The silver panic, he
ever, became the cause of gene
prostration of trade and creCrry,-
from which recovery could not pos.
sibly be immediate, even though
the cause of the alarm has been
remedied. The period of recovery,
moreover, is further postponed by
Intervention of sweeping revision
of the tariff. This latter circum-
stance would, under the best of
conditions, have proved very

immediate effects of a great panic,
its seriousness is doubled.

Cane Grinding in Lafourche.

THIBODAUX, La, Jan. 3.-With
the exception of the Laurel Valley
plantation of Lepine & Barker,
sugar making is completed in the
parish of Lafourche. On that plan
tation the cane yet unground is
windrowed, and secured from any
damage by cold or frost. The yield
in this parish has hardly come up
to expectations in tonnage or in
percentage. of sugar, yet planters
are contented with the results. The
gross outcome will be materially
greater than that of 1892.
The new year opens out finely,
with frost and light ice this
morning.

Republican State Convention.

HARRISBURG, Jan. 3.-Prior to
the assembling of the convention,
a meeting of the State committee
was held, at which it was decided
to hold the next state convention
for the nomination of a governor
ard other state officers, at Har-
Ilsburg, on Wednesday, May 90.
The convention was called to-
gether at 1920 o'clock by eX-
Senator Parker, of Tioga, the per-
manent chairman. The roll call
should a full attendance of the
delegates. All officers and COM
mittees appointed at the last con-
vention were retained, except the
sergeant at arms, Howard II. Hart
ranft, of Harrisburg, having been
substituted for Major John B.
Lockart, of Philadelphia. In stat
ing the object of the call of this
convention, Chairman Packer
eulogized the memory of the late
Governor Lilly, and said the con-
vention ought to congratulate
State Chairman Gilkeson for
the able manner in which
he conducted the last campaign
which resulted in $4,000 majority
for the Republican ticket, and
blamed the present depressed con-
dition of he country on the Ma
tional Democratic administration
He criticized it's Hawaiian policy
and declared the Wilson tariff bill
was un-American.

BIRMINGHAM, Jan. Sat De-
catur last Monday night Mrs. w.
E. Davis lay sick in bed. There
was a knock on the door and she
opened. AS she did so she was
struck on the head by an oak stave
in the hands of an unknown assail-

The Senate and House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Senate.-
When the Vice-President raped
the Senate to order at u O'Clock
today hardly a score of senators
were in their seats, and it was
some time later before the pres
ence of a quorum could have been
demonstrated. Floral offerings of
New Years were not numerous.
A luxuriant boquet adorned the
desk of the Vice-President, but he
appeared to be the only one
in the Senate receiving this
mark of favor. Senator Hill,
of New York, was shortly joined
by Senator Voorhees,, of Indiana,
Allison, of Iowa, and Mills, of Tex
as. Immediately after the reading
of the journal, Senator Blackburn,
of Kentucky, presented the Gre
dentials of Senator Eppa Hunton,
of Virginia, and the oath of office
was administered to the new Sena-
tor.
THE HOUSE.
There was not a very brilliant
setting for the opening of the tariff
debate in the House this morning.
When Speaker Crisp quietly
mounted the rostrum at high
noon and dropped the gravel,
there were many vacant seats in
the public gallery. The press gal
lery, overhanging the Speakers
chair, however, was lined with
newspaper correspondents. On the
floor there was great animation.
Ex-Speaker Reed, Burroughs, Dali
zell and other Republican leaders
were comforting earnestly, and on
the Democratic side, each member
of the Ways and Means committee
was surrounded by a group of his
colleagues. Much uncertainty as
to the tactics which the Republi-
cans would pursue, the suspicion
being that an outset of the Repub-
licans would lay every obstruction
in the path Of the tariff bill, and
that the first step in this
program would be to insist
upon "a Democratic quorum
to prevent such move from being
successful the Democratic members
were instructed to have every
Democrat present when the vote
was taken. After prayer of the
chaplain and reviewing of the jour-
nal, some preliminary business
interviewed. The designations of
Colonel Wellows and Mr.. Fitch, of
New York, were read.
AS the LIGHT goes to press, the
interesting portion of the session
is being entered into.

Cotton Market Prospects.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Jan. 3.-The
proportion of the cotton crop which
comes in sight each year prior to
Jan. /, varied from 6S per cent. in
1890 to 70 per cent. in 1889, the,
average for ten years past having
been 49, per cent. About the same
proportion, or ,70per cent, of our
crop is exported annually. About
5,400, 900 bales have come in sight
since September l, 1898, and about
2,135, 267 bales have been exported
same time. The balance not ex-
ported has been taken by northern
and southern spinners. People
familiar with cotton crops and
methods have been large buyers of
futures since September. Statisti-
clans, crop gathers, newspapers and
cotton factors reports indicate the
planter has marketed his crop I'M
usually close. Evidently they have
depressed prices by trying to mar
ket their last bale. A large visible
later on may not be considered a
weak feature. Port, interior and
overland movements continue each
and all surprisingly large. Home
spinners have evidently bought
less than usual. The visible is
about two per cent larger than a
year ago. Sentiment is One-sided
and bullish. Cotton seems very
low in comparison with former
years. New York stocks and visible
are increasing.

No Coal Moved Yesterday. ana the Gem
eraI situation UnchanEed-MarShaIs Out
the Road.
The c., L. & w, moved no coal yes
terday from the Bridgeport yards.
The Company fully intended to start
some of the coal early in the morning,
but this was not done, because the
United States Marshals did not arrive
in time to oversee the passage Of the
coal. The Marshals were to arrive from
Cincinnati at o'clock in the morning,
but the delay on the Trans-Ohio d.
vision of the B. 81 o. rendered this i'm
possible.
Early yesterday morning there were
scenes OF activity In the yards, and two
crews to take double-headers out at s
and o'clock were ordered out, but
these orders were withdrawn when the
officers did not arrive.
II was rumored in Bridgeport during
the day that some OF the raiiroadsrs had
refused to take the coal out, but there
was nothing in it. At the yards Yester-
day there were fully fifty Of the train
men sitting about waiting for orders,
and none of them said word against
taking the trains. While they do not
want to do anything which would him
der the miners, they feel that their
allegiance is with the Company which
employs them, and they do its bidding
in aiding getting the coal from the
yards. There are eight crews Of brake
men and nine Of fremen and engineels
in the yards ready to help move the coal
1t was reported that the Company hal
armed the railroaders, but this report
was also unfounded.
There was large crowd OF people IN
the yards alI yesterday afternoon, many
