A special dispatch to THE TRIBUNE from
Stroudsburg last night said: Thomas j.
Hart, Of Pike county was nominated to-
day on the two hundred and twenty fifth
ballot for congress. Howard Mutchler
had, up to that time, been able to prolong
the fight by giving the other candida dates to
understand that Northampton's conferrees
would likely come to their support on the
succeeding ballot. Hart, the winning can
little known outside. Mutchler's defeat
will be favorably received in the district
outside of Northamton and by many in his

a ministers Mind Fails in the Pulpit and
he Cannot Preach.
There was an unfortunate and uneN-
pected occurrence at tho Fourth street
NJ. e. church last night. Rev. DR..
Riker, the pastor, preached IN the lore
noon, but he has been i'll and was adj
vised by his physician not to risk the
night air. He secured Rev. LIB Hen
thorn, of Bridgeport, to fill his pulpitin
the evening. Mr.. Henthorn had
preached at the same church two weeks
before, and he was SO we'll liked that
last nighs the church was unusually
crowded.
He announced his text from Prov
erbs, 11-5O, the last clause of the verse:
.tAnd he that winneth souls is wise"
Pausing 81 moment Mr.. Henthorn
said that since he had come into the.
church something had happened to
him that never did before. He found
his mind an absolute blank, and it
would be useless for him to try to
preach. He gave out another hymn,
and after it and the doxology were
sung, dismissed the congregation with
a short prayer and the benediction.
Mr.. Henthorn said he was not i'll at
all, but simply found it impossible to
even%make a beginning OF his sermon.
The experience was entirely new to
him, though other. similar cases5are
said to be on record.

the former play tho Columbia State, Of

Clarke easily takes rank with the best
comedians on the American stage. In
Tit-for-Tat,' in which Mr.. Clarke ap-
peared last night, a very great treat
was anticipated. and it is no exaggera-
ton to cay that every expectation was
fully realized. No such exponent of
heightened comedy has been seen in
this city in a long time.'"

was bitter, vicious and vehement. 1t

in wagons and on foot, pushing with
all possible speed to the scene OF blood
shed, breathing vengeance at every
step.
Meanwhile, in Washington court house

pressed the pent.up passion of every.

and in the street were members OF the
mob, as far ut least as personal feelings
were concerned. There was q certain
ty of organiZSt Of the forces going

resolution succeeded the ebulttion Of
feeling. Men moved about as If bent
on business, but said nothing. There
is DO doubt of a purpose to blow up the
coure house. OF this the militia are
aware. A full moon lighted up every
approach to the court house. II mill
tsry reinforcements do not reach here

there Is danger that many Of the mill

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. ia special
meeting of the executive committee of
the State Agricultural Society has been
called to assemble In Macon on Wed
nesdaY, the Ash inst, to consider the
present ruinous price of cotton and to
take some steps if possible to remedy
and avert impending disast rs" TIE
call is issued by Hon. John 0. Waddell,
president of the State Agricultural
Socisty. The Meeting will take place
on the second day of the State fair,
which begins at Macon on the 231 inst.
President Wsddell, in issuing The call
says be wishes Ito be distinctly under
stood as opposing the selling of cotton
to the injury of creditors, but 1t Is be-
lieYed that the best interests OF debtor
and creditor will be subserved II ad-
vances can be secured Oh cotton so as to
allow it to be held over, thus stopping
the large daily receipts and at the same
time giving the farmers an opportunity
of securing advances on their cotton by
which they can meet their obligations
and g. the same time hold their cotton
for. better prices" Part of the call
reads as follows: A brief suggestion as
to the plans indicated. Money is plenti.
full and at low interest rate IN the
banks. The banks and commission
merchants, who are our friends can be
induced to advance q reasonable
amount on cotton and thus allow the
farmer to hold his cotton another year,
and at the same time. enable him to
pay his obligations to nearly the full
amount of his cotton. At present
prices, It is impossible to more than
pay the cost Of cultivation picking and
ginning and guano bills, leaving the
farmer nothing with which to meet
other just obligations. If the plans
and suggestions which you may pro.
mulgate, shall be adopted by the other
cotton States, we believe good results
WillfolloW. There can be no doubt that
the cotton acreage will Of necessity be
greatly reduced next year, the crop re-
duced in consequence, land the cotton
carried over must command better

COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct 17.-Governor
Tillman returned yesterday from Wash
ington where be went to see Internal
Revenue Com missioner Miller on the
subject OF taxes on whiskey seized from
distiIlers and taking possession of it
for the State When asked for an &C.
count of his trip the Governor said:
II accomplished all I went for, and
that was to prevent any conflict Of
authority or friction between the
Federal and State authorities. I found
Commissioner Miller very desirous of
cooperating with me IN the matter.
There Is some doubt in his mind as to
whether he has authority to allow the
State to seize liquor IN disJlllery
warehouse aud to pay the tax on 1t.
The question has never been raised be-
fore aud there is no judicial decision
along this line. There have been cases
Of sheriSs attempting to seizs liquors
and imported goods 10 bonded ware
houses under warrants for the collec.
ton Of debts, and the courts have held
that this was not permissible. Until
the passage Of the last revenue laW,the
Wilson Act. as amended by the Senate,
liquor In warehouses was held under
certificates which were sold In the
markets and anyone holding the GER
tidcates was considered the owner and
could pay the fare and remove 1t. Con.
gress for some reason changed the par
aseolcgy and the law nov provides
that the tax must be paid by the distil-
ler, and under strict construction no
one else Is allowed to do it, not even an
administrator or executor. I contend
cd that the government only held the
liquor for the purpose Of securing the
tax; that the States right to police
liquor within It's borders, whether man
ufactured or imported, was unques-
toned. The Supreme Court IN any
number of decisions comedies this in
the most emphatic language, and the
Wilson Act OF 1880, the last legislation
by Congress on the subject, also con-
cedes 1t.
"The Commissioner will submit the
matter to the Attorney General whose
opinion will govern our course until
the Legislature and Congress inset.
The Hhiskey in question will be pro-
ceeded against and judgment obtained,
II the evidence will warrant, and it
will not be allowed to be removed from
the warehouse until the matter is final
ly determined. I have no doubt that
the police power Of the State, which
differs from the attempt to seize for
the purpose of collecting debt, will
receive recognition at the hands OF the
Federal authorities, and II the law Is at
present defective, so as to prevent this,
It will be amended when Congress
meets. 1t may become necessary for
the Legislature to pass an Act to pro-
vide for the licensing of stills IN this
Stste and the control Of the output by
State officers. One thing is very GER.
tain, the Illicit sale of liquor at distill-
cries will be stopped"

that the raids on saloons would neY er
amount to anything; that no "tiger" pro-

drinks in his place of business and that
these are carried in bottle in the pock-
cts Of the bartender. The constable
stated that after awhile the officers will
begin to locate where all the "ocozs" is
kept and that descents will be made on
these places. He predicted that there
will be soma surprises in store when
the officers sweep down on these deposi.
tories. He believes that che "olind

whiskey stored in various places
throughout the city and that lots Of it
is kept In private houses.-Register.
