The Immigration Congress.

The Southern immigration Conven-
ton at Augusta, Ga, completed its bus
mess yesterday and adjourned. The
next place Of meeting was left to the
executive committee. a resolution
was adopted by the congress declaring
as follows
eve find the South has suffered less
than any other section, and is already
rallying from the recent panic. She is
on the threshold of an era of great de-
velopment and prosperity, and we in
vite eastern capital and western immi-
grants to come South and share in the
prosperity ahead"
After adjournment the members OF
the convention were carried up the Au-
gusta canal to the locks, seven miles
above the city, where an old-time
Georgia barbecue diuner, with all the
Accomplishments, was enjoyed. The
ride up the canal gave a view of several
of Augustus million-lollar cotton fac.
tories, and the canal itself which pays
the city annually five per cent. on
100000.
Senator Walsh, in speech, declared
the assembling of the Governors and
representative men of the southern
States in the interest of immigration
had called the attention of the whole
country to the fact that the South is
seeking for settlers to work in her fields
and develop her resources of forest,
quarry and mine. The testimony of
these representative men to the fertility
of the soil, the delightful climate, the
healthfulness, the security of life, liber-
ty and property, the interest in educa-
ton and the sure returns on capital in
vested in the South, Senator Wash de-
clared, would result in great good and
would prove the abundant success of
/ the congress.

TIE NEW YoHG Adccrtiscr, rank re-
publican, finds fault with the English
government for reinstating the rightml
ruler at Manangua, in accordance with
the terms Of a treaty between that gov
erument and Nicaragua. But the same
newspaper applaGds exPresident Har-
iison for having deposed the rightful
ruler at Honolulu, not only against the
terms of the tGeaty with Hawaii, but
against all international law.

THERE MAY be the most refined and
delicate wit in calling the outrageously
deposed queen of Hawaii the "Widow
Dominis" and Queen oil, and in sug-
gesting that she be appointed TO a gov
ernment clerkship, go on a lecture tour,
or be engaged by dime museum, but,
if SO, it certainly escapes the observa-
ton of the average wit critic.

HOUSE.

After the passage of several private
bills Mr.. Goldzier introduced resolu-
ton asking the commissioners Of the
District of Columbia to communicate
to Congress the reasons why they have
announced reduction in the wages OF
laborers employed by them from $l.50
and 81 % to 81 day. Messrs. Cannon
and Newlands suggested an extension
Of the inquiry to take in the whole
scope of labor employed by the United
States all over the country.
A discussion seemed likely to ensue.
and Mr.. Goldzier moved the previous
question. The vote on scconding the
demand, was ayes "a, noes 81,
"No quorum" said Mr.. Kilgore, and
telcr5 were ordered.
The vote through them was an
nounced ayes 81, noes none.
Mr.. Kilgore then withdrew the point
of no quorum and moved that the reso
luton be referred to the committee on
the District of Columbia. This was
agreed to and the matter was thus dis
posed Of
The House then went into committee
of the whole to further consider the bill
to repeal the State bank tax act, and
Mr.. Izlar continued his remarks, begun
yesterday, in favor Of repeal.

MARYLAND EPIsCoPALIANs.-The
Protestant Episcopal Convention of the
Diocese of Maryland adjourned in Bal
timore yesterday to meet next year at
Epiphany Church, Washington. The
resolution to elect bishops by majority
instead Of a two-thirds vote was defeat
ed, as was the proposition to divide St
Thomas Parish, Garrison Forest.
Bishop Paret stated that he could not
yet decide whether to remain III the
Maryland diocese or take the new
Washington diocese. In the event OF
division of the diocese it was decided
that the division of episcopal funds
agreed upon should not include the
episcopal residence in Baltimore nor
the library which was left to the diocese
by Bishop Nottingham.

FIFTY CONGRESS-.
WASHINGTON, June ,.
SENATE.

WASHINGTON. June >.
SENATE.
A resolution for the purchase or con-
demnation OF land in the vicinity of the
Gettysburg battlefield, was passed.
The resolution offered yesterday by
Mr.. PETER for the taking possession of
and holding for public use the coal beds
OF the country. was referred to the ju
dietary committee.
Then the resolution offered by Mr.
Hill for open sessions of the select com
mittee on the sugar trust investig 4tion,
was laid before the Senate, and Mr..
Hill spoke in its support.
At 1890 a. N. the tariff bill was laid
before the Senate, but Mr.. Hill said he
would continue his remarks, availing
himself OF the latitude of debate author
lied in the Senate
Mr.. Hunton asked Mr.. Hill whether
he knew OF an instance where com
mittee had been controlled by the Sen
ate as to the way of conducting its pro-
ceeding5 He, himself, knew of no
such case.
Mr. Hill replied that he had not in
vestigated that question and did not
care about it. The Senate had per
feet right to control its investigating
committees, and he assumed that the
Senator from Virginia did not question
that. Secret Investigations were things
of the past. The question here was
whether there was anything about this
investigation so peculiar, 50 unusual,
so unprecedented, that a different
course from that pursued in the
past should be pursued in this case.
The Senate itself was not a club-al
though sometimes called so; and there
was no reason why the public should
be excluded from its proceedings. And
50 there was no reason why the public
should be excluded from the sessions
of investigating committees. He
thought that the investigation should
be held with open doors, and that the
reporters of the press should be pres
ent. He had read what had been
given to the public One of the points
of the investigation was whether TIE
Secretary of the Treasury had made
suggestions about the sugar schedule
for the action of the finance committee.
Was there anything, he asked, so pc
culiar, so improper, so unprecedented,
about that that the testimony in re-
gard to it should not be taken in the
broad day light and in the presence of
the press and of the people. Another
point was as to whether Senators had
spcculated in sugar stock. There was
no reason why testimony in regard to
that should not be taken in open ses-
sion.
The discussion on Mr.. Hills resolu-
ion was further continued by Senators
Gray, Lodge, Allen and Hill. Then
Mr.. Gordon asked unanimous consent
that the resolution be voted on without
further debate
Mr.. Dolph objected and argued in
favor of bringing the contumacious
witnesses before the Senate and punish
ing them for contempt.
Then Mr.. Gordon renewed his sug-
gestion and Mr.. Washburn objected.
The resolution went over without ac-
ton and the consideration of The tariff
bill was proceeded with, Mr.. Aldrich
taking the floor and commencing by
saying that the votes of the two Sena-
tors from Louisiana and of one from
California had been obtained by sugar
concessions.

LATE NEWS BY WIRE
Lieut.. 0yler Testifes at the Colt
Court Of Inquiry.
WHEN he GAVE THE ORDER TO FIRE
The Mob Was Battering in the
Doors of the Building.
HE WAS NOT INTOXICATED

COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 22-Lieu-
tenant Oyler, who ordered troops at WASH
ington c. II. during the recent riot to fire,
in accordance with orders of Colonel Colt,
in a given contingency, testified today in
the court of inquiry to the battering of
the doors by the mob with stones and
other things. A shot fired by a person
outside was followed by a cry "All to-
gether," and a terrific blow opened the
south door four feet, when i gave the
command fire. After one volley / gave
command cease firing The door at this
moment was open but a few inches, having
been closed considerably by the force or
the weight of barbados"
Neither the witness his men were In
toxicated. They had no opportunity to get
into such condition. Witness had drank a
glass of beer Immediately after dinner.
The firing was at night. He was conf
dent the mob was determined upon get
ting in. a line Of soldiers outside, around
the building, would have been weak, and
easily overcome. The witness said such a
defense would have been idiotic.
He saw at least fifty reviewers in the
crowd in the afternoon. Col. Colt and Maj.
Speaks were not intoxicated. The persons
outside did not run when the door gave
way. Riot Shells containg shot, could not
have been used not being fitted to the
rifles of the Ohio National Guard.
e. Il. Page, dentist at Washington, g.
H, testified that in the evening he heard
the crowd warned by an officer in the win
dow OF the court house.

IN FEAR OF THE ROYLIsTs.
Guards Doubled in the Suburbs of
Honolulu.

HONOLULU. November II. per steamer
Mariposa, via San Francisco. November %.
That the government is still slightly in
fear of royalist uprising has. been evil
dent during the last week. All the guards
in the suburbs have been doubled, and q
close watch has been kept on all suspected
persons. The cause of this sudden activity
is alleged to be the discovery Of plot to
restore the ex-queen.
Inc restoring party was supposed to be
leu py a san Francisco newspaper man,
VINO, Tor time after his arrival here, soon
a1ter the recent revolution, was an active
supporter or the new government. His
house has been closely watched for weeks
or the steamer Australia last Saturday he
was told by Attorney General Smith that
1t would be much better for him to take
that steamer than to remain here.
He did so, but the government has not
relaxed its watchfulness on account of
his departure.
One of the most prominent and richest
royalists in the city said few evenings
ago:
People who think our cause is dead
Will be surprised in the near future, which
VIII make them open their eyes.
we have made many attempts to arouse
the royalists to a sense of their wrongs,
but so far have failed. This time, how
ever, i think we have succeeded and will
accomplish our erd.
Whether we succeed or not Is difficult to
say, but if we did not think We would We
would not attempt a revolution"
1t is known that a considerable number
of guns and ammunition have been secretly
brought here during the last few months
and the royalists evidently intend to make
use of them. No uneasiness is felt by the
perfectly well satisfied that 1t can hold its
own.

O'FERRALL MAY INTERFERE.
Viryinia's Governor Opposed Ia
Winter Racing.

Spe,ia ispatch to The Evening Star
ST. ASAPHS. Va. November 22.-'The
situation at the ST. Asaph track respecting
the matter of a continuance Of the meeting
after the 1st of the month has developed
nothing new today except that 1t is now
stated that J. NJ. Hill, one of the owners Il
the track. is stoutly opposed to winter
racing and racing except with the permits
sion of the National Jockey Club.
The st. Asaph Club hope to succeed in in
ducing the Jockey Club after all, to allow
racing here during December, and it Is I'M
derstood that after the National AsSocia-
ton has finally refused such permission no
thing will be done as to breaking away
from the national organization. The Vr-
gnia Jockey Club officials feel that at the
present time it is more important than ever
before that there should be no discussion,
and will do nothing to injure legitimate
racing in this discussion.
The threat of the governor of Virginia,
made last winter, that there should be no
winter racing in the state If he had to
use the militia to suppress it, seems to
be forgotten. Gov. O'Ferrall, II Is now said,
proposes to be heard from in the matter,
and ii Is said that the projectors OF winter
racing will soon be made to understand
that he meant all he said.
Secretary McIntyre's Assurance.
Secretary Mcintyre of the Virginia Jockey
Club today sent the Associated Press the
following:
ITO settle all rumors, kindly announce
that the race meeting of the Virginia
Jockey Club is being run and will continue
to be run under the jockey club rules as
