are giving an average Of two hoeshsads to tue
acre. The wind has been light. Otherwise
more sugar would have been maze. Very
little rain has fallen, but then little is requir-

Washington, Dec 4-The Senate was
in session for only half an hour today,
as the leaders of the majority desired
to caucus on the general order of bust
ness before proceeding with the busi-
ness itself.
There was time enough, however, for
Mr.. Lodge, of Massachusetts, to have
passed two resolutions for information,
which promise to bring the Hawaiian
and Bluefields incidents before Con-
gress for comment and probably crit
icism.
There was the usual deluge of bills
and petitions incident to the opening
days of a session, none of them, how
ever, being of public Importance.
When the Senate convened at. noon
today the senators showed a desire to
enter without delay upon the real bust
ness of the session.
Mr.. Blanchard, of Louisiana, offered
a resolution reciting the circumstances
under which the sugar bounty was cut
off after the sugar crop for 1894 was
put in. 1t directed the committee on
appropriations to include in the ur-
gency deficiency BILL sufficient to pay
the bounty the present year. The bill
went over.
vest, OIL MISSOURI, OIefeQ an amend
ment to the rules, with the view of
cutting off protracted debates in the
Senate. 1t provides that after a meas
ure has been debated thirty days, it
will be in order for any senator to
move to fix Il day for 9, final vote; this
motion is to be put without debate or
delay, and if carried the original ques-
ton is to be voted on at the time fixed.
Vest said he would address the Senate
tomorrow on the need Of this reforma-
tory rule.
Lodge, of Massachusetts, offered a
resolution, which was adopted without
dissent calling on the secretary of the
navy for the official letters of Admiral
Walker While in command Of the
United States naval vessels at Hawaii.
Lodge raised another international
question by a resolution calling on the
president for the correspondence con-
corning Bluefields. and for information
concerning the attitude of Nicaragua.
The resolution was adopted without
comment.

lutions of respect to the memory OF

KOLB RAMPANT.
HE ISSUES A SENSATIONAL KEyO-
LUTIoNARY ADDRESS.
Advises the Nonpayment of Taxes.
and Many Collectors Are EzoIb-
ties, Anarchy May Result in Al
ALBANIA.

Birmingham Ala, Dec. 4.--R. F. Kolb,
who claims to be governor of Alabama,
today completed a message to the legis-
lalture, which he signs as governor, and
which will be transmitted to that body
tomorrow. The message is also address
ed ITO the people of Alabama, and is a
long and in many respects revolutionary
document, as it recommends that his fol-
lowers do not pay their taxes for a while.
He further says:
81 further advise those collectors VINO
value the cause 1 represent. and which
will aesuredly prevail to delay all pay
lmentS of state taxes into the state treas
lFry until an impartial hearing has been
had of our complaint under q fair and
honest contest law.
When it is remembered that the tax
collectors il itllirty-eight out of Sixty-si3S
counties IN the state are Kolpites, IL will
Kolb government viii find strong sup
port, and Alabama will be threatened
with anarchy In mis- message kOlb says
'FT.he revolutionary conditions of our
state government must become the sub
je9t of your continued and most anxious
contemplation The plans of usurperS so
charming to you are abat.ng in nothing
to reduce you to an abject and final sub
stonS. You have seen your just demands
for the f1D execution of the election
system of governor and other state OIL
GERS secured to you by sacred conStftu-
isiCnal guarantees deliberately set aside
by the legislature, itself only a creat ure
of the constitution. l declare to you,
without fear of contradiction, thai if the
present party in control of your govern
ment be not arrested in It's mad career,
no elections can be held in Alabama un-
der She law ana constitution"
He then reviews the provisions of the
constitution and says:
Because the legislature of 1928 dii
expressly revoke the sectors of the civil
code, however unprotected, which seemed
to allow a contest of election of COVER
not and other state officers by refusing
on demand to restore them or to sub
5tantfate others of a reasonable and
practical nature, you are perfectly iusti-
fed in declaring there can be no election
of governor or other state officers under
the constitution of Alabama binding on
you which is tainted with fraud at the
ballot box
He then urges the legislature TO enact
contest laws and advises his friends to
organize clubs to assist in the general
object of his appeal. The message con-
cludes:
not the truth, if they court equity and
are ready to abide by justice, they Will
hesitate at nothing Ito remove the color
of s1fshonor from mis- title to the office he
has seized by arms.

Discussion Was Based on Daniels
Resolution.

Washington, Dec. 4-The Democrats
of the Senate spent about three hours
in caucus today and then adjourned,
without taking action, To meet again
Thursday next. The entire time was
devoted to a discussion of the situa-
ton and to the wisest course of action
for the Democratic party during the
present session of Congress.
The entire discussion was based on
a series of resolutions presented by
Senator Daniel. of Virginia, declaring
for a cloture. committing the party to
an abandonment Of all Efforts to
amend the tariff law and to an effort
to reform the currency in accordance
with the suggestions in the Presidents
message.
The resolutions. opened wide range
of debate, in which many senator's par
ticipated.
Senator Voorhees, opened the talk
with a suggestion to the effect that the
wisest co'1rse lay in the abandonment
of any effort to pass the free raw ma
terial bills. (so-called) because of the
evident determination of the Republi-
cans to prevent any action.
Senator Vest showed an inclination
toward cloture, contending that if the
