To-day the destinies of the industries Of

senators who are conspicuous in the

great effort to destroy the union
and another memUer of The
majority was conspicuous dur
ing the late war for his supposed
sympathy with the leaders of the late
war. Mr.. Dolph went on TO criticise the
action of the finance committee in refus-
ing hearings to the representatives of la
Dor and industries of the country. and
said that the true reason for that refusal
was that the majority of that COMMITTEES
was hopelessly welded to free trade

listing condition afforded, deaf TO the cries
of unemployed labor and idle OF capital
and determined to destroy the protective
system.
CALLED A SECTIONAL BILL.
The Wilson bill he said, was q sec

the north, and was admirably designed
for the degradation of American labor
But" said Mr.. Dolph, excitedly. 1.-THE
day of reckoning is approaching; the
handwriting is on the wall, the people re-
pudiate you (meaning the democrats). and
the next House of Representative will be
as overwhelmingly republican as the pres
emit one is democratic"

way of correction.
The next President of the United
States, Mr.. Dolph went on needless of

ballots they have placed the party of pro

which this congress has already done.

ALLEN CHALLENGES DOLPH.
Mr.. Allen challenged Mr. Dolph to
show that representatives of the working
men had applied for hearings and had
been refused, and said that he had been
informed by one of the great leaders of a
labor Organization, which numbered hun.
dreds of thousands of working men.
that they had no desire to be heard be-
fore the finance committee. IL was the
manufacturers who desired to be heard
and who put themselves forward as the
guardians of the Iaboring man.
The controversy between the two sena-
tors continued for another half hour, and
was finally brought to close by the
Senate going into executive session: after
which, at rs O'Clock, it adjourned till

CLEvELA ND,s OUTING.
The President Watches the Drawing
in of Bis Net.

Elizabeth, \. c., March President
Cleveland and party are moving still
further away from civilization Yester-
day morning the Violet was lying at Long
Point near the foot of the Albemarle and
Chesapeake canal. After a1fordinc the
party an opportunity to try their skill on
ducks IN the early morning. the little
steamer hauled upher anchor and started
away to the southwark. She crossed
Albemarle sound and entered Croaton
sound, about thirty miles from the morn
ing starting point. Here the vessel an
chored and the party passed the night
quietly IN the glare of the CroatOn sound
hght, which was close at hand.
The presidential party did not try its
luck at cunning this morning, but instead
went on sight seeing expedition. Pres
ldent Cleveland and Secretary Ores
ham are early risers, and by o'clock
breakfast had been dispatched
and the members of the party began their
trip. The first point OF interest was at a
seine hauling, at Weymouth Point, on
the mainland. The fisheries at this poiut
are among the most extensive on the At
lantic coast. Shad aud herring and
striped bass, or roach fish. have already
begun their spring migration from the
ceep waters of the Atlantic to the spawn
ing grounds They enter the North Car
oIlna sounds Off Wilmington and through
the inlet at HatterdS, and at Oregon and
New inlet, and find their spawning beds
IN numerous streams running into the
sounds from the mainland President
Cleveland, Secretary Gresham and Capt
Evans landed from the Violet in a gig and
inspected the working of the Davis and
Weymouth fishery on Croaton sound. The
tide was favorable and the party was in
time to see one haul of the great seine.
Ihls net is about Two miles long, and
owing to its great length and weight is
beyond the capacity of human labor to
handle, so steam power is called upon.
Inc party saw the seine carefully slowed
on the stern of the two steam fats, as
they are known. The boats swept across
the sound and returned, forming almost
a circle, and paying out the seine as they
ran. Reaching the shore the lines were
attached to steam wlndlasses, and in the
course of an hour the great seine was
landed, bringing in its meshes barrels of
fish of all kinds. The President was much
interested in the sight.
Taking to their gig again the party
then crossed Croaton island and landed
on Roanoke Island, about two miles dis
tant. Here conveyances were taken. and
the party visited some of the his torical
points on the island. including Fort
Raleigh and Ballast Point, where Sir
Walter Raleigh loaded the ballast which
he brought in his little ship from Eng
land on one of his voyages to.the new
world. The President also stopped for
time at the quaint little village of Man
teo, thus touching civilization for the
first time since leaving Washington last
Sunday.

L1BERrY's STATUE IN DECAY.
Patriotic Citizens Will Maintain the
Beacon, But the Goddess Cannot

From The Philadelphia Press

From the Philadelphia Press.
Washington, Feb. 27 1t is very prob
able that the government will soon trans
fer to the Sons of the American Revolu-
ton or some kindred patriotic society the
privilege of maintaining the beacon light
on the statue of liberty in New York
harbor.
II is said that already the statue shows
alarming signs of dissolution. The thin
veneer of copper, of which the statue is
made, is already rusted through in many
places so that one can readily sec to as
cend the stairs without the aid of artifi-
cial light. II is not believed that even
with the excellent care the lighthouse
board has bestowed upon the statue it can
hardly be expected 10 last more than ten
or fifteen years longer
The society, which seeks to relieve the
government Of the expense of maintaining
the beacon, now runs ferry line to Bed
loe's Island and have already accumu-
lated about 900 which it is willing to
eXpend ia replacing the electric light
plant, which is nearly worn out, and in
maintaining the light indefinitely.

The warden and burgesses of Fair Haven East voted on Monday evening to disband the two fire companies Quninipiac Hose and the Dayton Hook and Ladder companies, and to reor- ganize the department under the name of the Quinnipiac Hose and Hook and Ladder company. A meeting will be held in few days to reorganize. One of the burgesses said that the step had been taken to cut down expenses.

Not a Denominations Enterprise.
,rTpe ,yTns'HT. Hurn & Csrw Conp. Boston.


 In your issue of October you print the statement recently put forth of the Calvary Industrial Home, 40 Crown street. By an inadvertance 1t appears under the heading Calvary Baptist home.
 The home is not a denominational en- terprise in any sense. And we, as committee, should have cause for much regret if the impression should become a settled one throughout the commit nity that we have opened home for Baptists! The inmates are of many denominational connections and of none, and of many nationalities.
 Besides, others than Baptists have generously contributed to the support of the home-which we have designed and intended to maintain. as God gives us the means, as 8 Christian industrial home for all who need and will avail themselves of its help. Yours truly,

Sugar Was tho oye shadow.nE Feature or
 Speculation.


 New York. Oct. 2-.American Sugar was the overshadowing feature of spec uiation to-day, the stock having been traded in to the extent of lo6,2oo shares. It was heavy almost from start to fn- ish, there having been only a slight rally of K per cent. late in the day. which was subsequently, lost. The price opened at s6aQssts, and gradually set tied down to sSh. closing at the lowest point. Considerable investment stock came out and the bears assisted the downward movement to the best Of their ability. The impression is that the insiders are willing to see the stock sell lower. certainly they are doing nothing to check the decline. The old reports that the refining business Is poor and that the companies cannot live under the present tariff were again circulated. '' ''''"
 In direct contrast with the heavi- ness of Sugar the general list displayed a little more frmness and at times showed a disposition to advance. This Is the result of heavy oversold condi- | ton of the market. Many of the lead ing issues command premiums ranging from 1-256 per cent. in the case of Rock Island and to l-16 per cent. in the case of New York Central. The small bears | took advantage of the break in Sugar to cover as the company on the short side is becoming unwieldy and there | Is fear that a bold movement by the bull leaders might lead to disastrous | results In the ranks of the smaller shorts, at least, If it did not spread l further.
 | Louisville and Nashville was rather weak on rumors that the report to be presented at the annual meeting in | Louisville tomorrow will be unfavora- ble. The stock fell from 55% to 55h. Chicago Gas was In better demand and the shorts showed signs of nervous ness. The stock at one time sold up | 1A to 7lA, but later receded to 70h@ 9.
 Speculation closed about steady. Net changes show advances of A to E per cent. in Atchison. Burlington and Quin- cy, Chicago Gas, Northwest, Rock Island. Manhattan.
