the deal was closed selling the Fort Wayne
Artificial Gas-light Company to General
Thomas, who is the partner of Calvin
Brice. The Brice syndicate now owns most
of the Fort Wayne Natural-gas plant, and
1t is not denied that the intention is TO
consolidate the two concerns at once. The
selling price is said to have been 50 cents
on the dollar of the capital stock. The Ar
tificial Gas Company has not declared a
dividend for some time. the natural-gas
people have cut greatly into their business.

NO DEBATE ON COXEY.
Democrats Don't Want to Talk About
the CommonweaI.

WASHINGTON, April 29-The House
will continue work on the appropriation
bills this week. The Republicans developed
an obstructive policy during consideration
OF the diplomatic and consular bill, which
was completed last Thursday. consuming
an entire week by means of unimportant
amendments to unimportant items. The
Democrats fear that this policy is to be
continued in furtherance of a welI-settled
programme 10 delay the passage of the
regular appropriate bills. Should 1t be
developed during the coming week that
such ID the fact a special order may be
necessary TO expedite matters. After the
completion of the army bill, the considera-
ton OF which was begun yesterday, 1T is
probable Mr.. Dockery will be allowed to
bring forward his bill reported from the
joint committee on expenditures in the de-
partments TO reorganize the system of ac-
which is designed to reduce expenditures
In the departments $4,000. II is necessary
that the bill should be disposed of before
the Legislative, executive and judicial ap-
propriation bill, now III process of COM
pletiOn by the appropriations committee, is
framed, as the changes IL makes I'm exist
ing law must be Incorporated In that BILL
As soon as II Is out OF the way the river
and harbor bill will be called up In case
the Republicans persist in an obstructive
programme an attempt will be made to

The managers of the House are very
much in earnest in their determination not
TO permit any resolution bearing on the
COXey movement 10 get into the arena of
debate. They Go not believe this subject
should be agitated. 1t is contended that
the subject can by no possibility of con-
structiOn be considered privileged and any
request for unanimous consent for con-
sideratiOn will be promptly objected to-
The only way In which the subject can be
discussed in the House is under cover of de-
bate on one OF the pending appropriation

THE CAHABA BRIDGE.
Present Not Encouraging, Says General Thomas.

In conversation with an AGE HERALD reporter yesterday afternoon General Thomas, county commissioner for the Third district, said the building of the Cahaba bridge was yet an uncertainty. All the commissioners are anxious to have this bridge built, and just as soon as the financial condition of the country will per init it will be done.
 Said General Thomas: "The tax receipts for the present year are considerably less than for last year, and the 10 per cent fund which goes to the roads will not amount to over $35, ,000. Out of this comes the interest on S625, ,000 of bonds, which has to be paid first.
 ssThree or four of the principal roads within a few miles of Birmingham are badly washed, and, unless they are re- paired at once, will be entirely destroyed. They have got to be attended to this sum- mer. bridge near Warrior was recently washed away, thus cutting. the county in two and causing great deal of lncon- venience to the epeople of that section. This bridge will have to be replaced with the first available money.
 "In the meantime we cannot afford to run behind and thus be forced to issue scrip, but must pay current expenses In cash.
 .'There will be practically no more taxes paid into the county treasury prior to Jan uary l, and economy will be necessary to enable us to meet all our obligations. We be at our disposal, and will not know until the tax collector makes out his report. If, when this is done, we see there is money enough on hand after paying all expenses to build the Cahaba bridge, we will order it built at the very earliest date possible"

recsion of the Mary Lee mines, which are only one and A half miles away.
 The agent at Boyles heard an explosion in the direction of the bridge about the time the guards arrived there, but no signs of any explosion could be found at the bridge.
 Five or six men with Winchesters were left on guard at the bridge.
 After the order for the tie-up of the Louisville and Nashville aud the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham was is- sued the American Railway union sheld another session and declared strike on the Queen and Crescent. This action was not expected on the part Of the union, as practical assurances had been given out that the Queen and Cres- cent would not be affected. The striking of the Queen and Crescent yard men made the railroad yards within the city limits desolate, and at an early hour this morning not an engine moved in the yards.
 It was supposed that ap attempt would be made to cut off the Pullman sleep-rs on Louisville and Nashville No. when she pulled out of the shed this morning, and in view of this special deputies were placed on board to see that this was not done; but nothing of the kind was attempted, and the train pulled out on time.
 When Alabama Great Sou ern No. pulled into the union depot this morning there were no switchmen to hook on the Atlanta and Shreveport sleeper.
 Master Mechanic Macune, with switch engine and the two yard masters, put on the sleeper. When the switch engine backed out of the depot the crew that had charge of the engine were jeered at by crowd of railroad men that had gathered at the Twentieth street crossing to see what would be done with the sleeper that had to be switched. Ihls, however, did not put any change upon the master mechanic and the two yard masters, for they handled the car.

Governor Jones and Colonel Clements were expected, but both wrote that they could not be pres- ent. The governor will make an appoint ment for Pickens soon.
 The meeting was opened by M. B. Curry, chairman of the executive committee, who was followed by D. c. Hodo. The speeches of the day were made by E. D. Willett, candidate for the house, and John A. Rogers, candidate for the senate. The tide has turned and Captain Kolb has lost his hold in Pickens.

 SPEAKERS FAIL TO SHOW UP.
 VERNON, July 4.-[Special Correspond ence. l-Vernon and vicinity had three rousing democratic speeches today from Messrs. Long, Foster. and Chapman, with introductory remarks from Hon. John D.

 They claim now it was not the under ' standing that their speakers were to b4 here, but that is too thin tale, for grea many of their followers were expecting speakers for the Kolb parry would be her also.
 "Hollis of Fayette," "Hollis of La mar" and McKinstry of Pickens turned up in the southwest corner of the county with their usual harangues instead of com ing here and facing the music.
 The Kolb crowd had runners going over1 the county this morning telling their peo-l pie not to come to Vernon today.

Holds It's Regular Monthly Meeting List of Committees Announced.
 New Quarters Discussed.

Camp Hardee held a regular monthly meeting yesterday afternoon in O'Brien's opera house with good attendance.
 Gen. R. D. Johnston, the newly elected commander, made an interesting speech to the. camp, in which he asked that all within the confines of Camp Hardee be harmony and that all the members work together harmoniously.
 Retiring Commander R. E.

scaring the crew of train, cutting the engine loose and running it up the track ope ming the throttle and letting it run full tilt back upon the standing train was a new one and of character likely to be imi- tated.
 The stoning of incoming trains was a common pastime with the mobs, and sev- eral persons were more or less injured by flying missiles. Oae engineer on,a Rock Island train was so badly injured that it was at first reported that he was dead.
 The assaults Of mobs, however, was not met with the passive resistance which characterized the course pursued yestef-l day. On two occasions at least their at tacKs were met with accurately aimed lead.
 Daring riot in the forenoon over an in- coming milk train at Kensington deputy United States marshal shot and killed two strikers, and during the afternoon the dep- uties guarding an incoming Baltimore and Ohio passenger train replied to the volley or shots and stones which the strikers showered upon them by turning their re- volvers loose, killing four of their assail- ants and wounding number of others.
 A new and grave feature was added to the situation this afternoon, when a meeting of representatives of all the bodies of or- ganized labor in the city, after practical discussion in which general sympathy strike was favored, appointed a mmittee oi three with full power to act, and at the same tlme called meeting of all organized labor for next Sunday to ratify their action.
 Late this afternoon the Second regiment, state militia, was ordered to the stock yards.
 Of the situation in general, the strike may be said to have strengthened it's grip. It's most significant feature is the carrying of the strike east to Cleveland, tying up all the connections of the seaboard trunk lines there, with the promise by tomorrow that It will reach the trunk lines them- selves, and so practically reach the At lantic seaboard by tying up the roads at Buffalo. Thus the strike would be ex- tended from ocean to ocean.
