The message is long and revolutionary.
1t recommends the non-payment of taxes,

He urges the legislature to enact contest

without action, to meet again Thursday.
The situation and the wsest course for the

A series of resolutions were offered by
Senator Daniel declaring for cloture, the
abandonment Of effort TO amend the tarin
law and TO form the currency in accordance
with the Presidents suggestions.
Senator voorhees, believed IL wisest to
abandon the free raw material bills be-
cause OF the Republican determination 10
prevent action. Senator Vest leaned to-
wards cloture, conteuding that the RepnO-
licaus would adopt IL when they came into
power. Senator Morgan pleaded for

While no action was taken the prevail

that the ultimate decision would be adverse
L, the entire series Of propositions. tho
sentiment favorable 10 cioture seemed
evenly divided, though IL might be agreed
upon but that the Democratic party Will

WHARNcLIFFE, w. VA, December A
terrible shooting ARRAY, resulting in the
death Of two men, occurred about mile
east OF here, on the Norfolk and West
ern railroad, yesterday. The victims
are Perry Allison, a resident here,
and Dale Jones. stranger, who has only
been in this vicinity for short time. The
latter bore tough reputation, and is un-
derstood TO have record of two murdered
men TO his credit in Kentucky or Tennessee.
Early Monday morning Perry Allison,
accompanied by his brother. Warden Alli-
son, went TO the general store Of Robert
Hatfield, on Ben creek, the scepe OF
THE SUBSEQUENT MURDERS.
Hatfield sells a bad quality Of liquor
along with general assortment OF coun-
try merchandise. At the store the ALI
son boys met Jones, and in the course OF
an hour or so the Hatfield stock of
liquor was very considerably reduced.
Jones and Perry Allison became
involved in a friendly boxing match,
which soon degenerated into fight Of a
particularly fierce description. Jones was
getting the worst of this, when he
drew revolver and fired point
blank in Allison's face The bail
entered the brain and thence passed
into the neck, causing instant death.
The dead body OF Allison had hardly
touched the floor when. John Lambert a
brother-in.law OF the Allisons, ran
up the bank to the scene of
the shooting and started towards
Jones revolver in hand. The latter
--- BEGAN FIRING AT LAMBERT,
but missed him. Lambert then opened fire
ON Jones, shooting four times. Three OF
the balls took effect, and Jones died OF his
woundsin a short time.
Perry Allison was married, but his wlte
separated from him some time ago, de
was very popular, and his tragic death has
caused general regret. Jones was also
married.
