AT 4 RECENT election in the Louisi-
ana congressional district which Sena-
Tor Blanchard represented, &,4i6 votes
were cast for. and .l5l against fed
eral income tax. y similar ratio would
probably be maintained in every other
congressional district in the country
and naturally, as only few people
would be subject TO such tax. And
vet Senator's Hill and Smith say the
laying of an income tax would defeat
the democratic party There is too
good ground to fear that the democratic
parry Is already defeated, but to make
sure oft, let the income tax provision
of the Wilson bill be stricken out.

terday evening while Theodore Argus,
a countryman residing near Lewins-
vile, Fairfax county, was on his way
home from a trip to Washington, he
was attacked at lonely spot between
the Chain bridge and Langley by a
gang Of negroes. He was hit with a
stone and knocked senseless, his head
being cut open. The negroes riiled his
pockets, securing a sum of money and
other valuables. Half an hour after
the assault the injured man was dis
covered, and a doctor summoned from
Langley, who pronounced his injuries
serious, as he thought the skull was
fractured in several places. The in
iured man was taken to the house of 3

The Coxcv Movement.

Jacob S. Coxey's army of the COM
monweal arrived at Hancock, Md, yes
terday, having moved twenty miles be-
tween breakfast and sunset on the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal. No sup
plies were forthcoming at Hancock and
the army was thrown upon the re-
sources of its own commissary. Mr..
Coxey was much disappointed On
learning tLat ''The Unknown" whom
he dismissed on Sunday at Cumberland,
had preceded the army to Hancock
and held public meeting Tuesday
night, collecting money. Mr.. Coxey
demanded that ''The Unknown" and
his companions be arrested for obtain
ing money under false pretenses, but
they had departed for Williamsport,
where the army arrived to-day. The
army is slowly progressing down the
canal, the leaders stopping to make
speeches wherever a crowd collects.
The men expect to reach Hagerstown
tonight. At Hancock the army ex-
pressed great indignation when they as
certained that the citizens had not pre-
pared a dinner for them.
Christopher Columbus Jones's Army
of the Commonweal rested in camp at
Northeast, in Cecil county, Md yes
terday, enjoying the eatables supplied
in liberal quantities by the people Of
the neighborhood 1t is announced
that they will march to Havre de Grace
to-day.
The United States Senate in execu-
tive session yesterday recognized the
Coxey movement on suggestion that
it behooved Congress to decide what it
should do in case of the arrival at
Washington Of large numbers of men,
with the avowed purpose of forcing re-
cognition iu the way of legislation.
Senator Harris said the committee on
rules had examined the statutes and
found that the laws made ample pro-
vision for the protection of the Capitol
and of Congress, and that the COM
mittee had taken the necessary steps to
see that the laws were executed.
Organized movements of recruits for
the Commonweal are reported by tele-
graph from California, Iowa, Utah, Col
orado. Massachusetts,, Connecticut and
New York.

HOUSE.

HOUSE.
A bill was passed authorizing the city
of Pittsburg to build free bridge over
the Monongahela river within the city
limits.
a resolution was agreed to calling on
the Secretary Of the Interior for infor-
nation respecting the issue in 1862 aud
1864 OF first mortgage bonds in aid OF
building a railroad To The Pacific coast.
At I2:l5 the House went into COM
ruittee OF the whole on the diplomatic
and consular bill.
Mr. Dingley referring to the state
ments made yesterday by Mr.. Nc
Creary and Nr. Hooker regarding the
action Of Minister Stevens at Honolulu,
read the report of the Senate commit
tee on foreign relations which investi-
gated the Hawaiian affair, as fully vim
dicating the minister in connection
Herewith.
The resolution adopted by the House
was in opposition to the facts found by
the Senate committee, and that while
the matter may be res adjudicata so fer
as the House is concerned, a. claimed by
Mr.. McCreary, it is not res adiu-
dicata as far as public opinion is con-
cerned, and the verdict that history
writes will be in accordance with the
conclusions of the Senate committee.
Mr.. Grow repeated his declaration Of
yesterday that he did not care how Il e
new government of Hawaii came into
existence: it was enough for him that it
rose upon the ruins OF monarchy and
despotsm. He denounced the policy
of the present administration because it
construed eve~y question in favor of
the rejected and despised monarchy,
and against the liberty loving people
of Hawaii, struggling to secure for
themselves the same institutions as ex-
ist in this country. When the gentle
man from kentucky (NIr. McCreary)
contended that because the House had
adopted the resolution he had read,
therefore, the matter is concluded. Mr..
Grow said he did not forget that when
the blacklist incident in American his
tory was written among the pioneers
of Kansas by the administration of
James Buchanan, party zeal in this
house and in the other end of the Cap
itol gave it support and approval. The
next blacklist episode is now being
written by this administration, in its
treatment of the Hawaiian matter.
General debate on the appropriation
bill was closed by Mr.. McCreary and
the bill was read by sections for amend
ment.
Mr.. Lacey offered an amendment
striking out the appropriation for the
salary of Minister Willis to Hawaii.
Ruled out on q poiut of order.

THE DEFICIENCY in the revenue Of
Great Britain for the current fiscal year
amounts 10 $22o00,000 that in this
country will be nearly hundred mil
lion. And yet the average tariff tax
here is sixty per cent, while there is
comparative free trade in England. So
that . hish tariffs not conducive to a
plethoric treasury. That it is not con-
ducive to plethoric pockets of the vast
majority of the people, is proved by the
fact that though wages in England are
slightly less than in this country, the
laborers there have a better time, be-
cause the cost of living is less.

His First Deer.

Verge Witt. who holds the responsible
position of bell boy at the Mcqueen
house. retired to his con very early last
night, being somewhat fatigued after a
hard days toll. He laid for som time
in a deep r~everie. bordering over the
duties Of the morrow, and the pleasures
Of the past. About IL o'clock. however,
he was awakened from his stupor by a
rustling in the brush neal his window.
Bounding on the floor, he looked out.
He saw a deer. Without. further in
quiry and in a state Of excitement, his
wearing apparel went on. but not in the
condition one usually appears in public.
Having finished his hurried toilet, he
few up stairs to MI. Savage's room, &C.
cured a Winchester. which stood in the
corner. and hurried down stairs with it.
On reaching the Office. he pulled back
the lever. intending to load the gun,
which. however. wal loaded, and ex.
{ ploded during the operation. the bullet
going through the front window in a
northwesterly direction. Mr.. Savage,
who was reading during the excitement.
was aroused by the shot. and cried out
to the boy, who he thought had EN-"
to put up the gun. but Verge was after a
deer, and without making and reply to
the proprietor's request, bounded out Of
the door. and seeing the deer on the
sidewalk that leads to the depot. pulled
down on him. and fred. with fatal result
to the deer. the ball penetrating the neck
and killing him instantly. Not going to
look at the deer, he returned to the
hotel, and exultingly cried out, Il got
him." With that all hands left for the
scene OF execution, and on inspection
found the deer to be Bijou. the pet Of
s. A. Pepper. AT this discovery a look
Of remorse cam over Vergeis face, and
he again retired to the solitude OF his
room to brood over his rash act.
