WALSH'S ROADS TO WEALTH
He FaVOTS the Nicaragua Canal and a
Flood Of Silver.

If Congress Has the Foresight to Do
What He Wants it to Do He is Con-
hdent Everybody Will Soon Have
Money to Burma New Interna-
tional Congress Favored.
Baltimore, July lS.-The Manufacture
er's record of Friday will contain an in
terview with Senator Walsh Of Georgia
upon the subjects of the Nicaragua canal
and silver coinage. AS to the canal, MIR
Walsh is very much in favor Of it and he
gives a number of statistical arguments
why it should be built by the United
States and at once. He says
"If the United States congress
mas the foresight to do two
things, believe that prosperity will re-
turn to the farmer. the mechanic and the
labOrer, and that the capitalist and man
ufacturer will find new fields for invest
ment and new markets in which TO sell
his wares; our labor troubles would dis
appear and our people wo uld find profta-
ole employment; our farmers would no
ledger be disconnected with starvation
prices for their products.
Il. Build the Nicaraguan canal. This
will open up TO the skill and enterprise of
our manufactures and merchants the ec-
tire field of commerce that has never
failed to enrich the nations of Europe.
-. Invite the republics of Mexico,
Central and South America and the
nations of Japan and China and india,
and all the silver using countries of the
world, which embrace about two-thirds
of the people of the earth. to an interna-
Il T.
conference determine that silver will be
coined at a ratio of sixteen in silver
to one in gold, and that silver
money will be received in exchange for
merchandise and in payment of all debts
If the United States government has the
foresight and the wisdom to do these
things, she cannot only go to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver, but she can in
time command the commerce of the
world -

tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectuaily cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

A BIG TAX CASE.

Florida Seeks to Recover Taxes From
the Florida Central and Peninsular.
Tallahassee, Fla, July 1S.-The case of
the state against the Florida Central and
Peninsular Railroad Company for back
taxes for 1879, 1880 and 1881, aggregating
$685. 900, was yesterday submitted without
argument in the supreme court, Col. John
A. Henderson representing the railroad
company and Attorney General Lamar
the state. The railroad claims an exemp-
ton from taxation under its charter, and,
further, that the legislative act of 1885
was void, because it sought to reach back
in assessment more than three years, and
that it is a special statute, and hence
void. The claim of the state is that the
property is not exempt under it's charter,
and that the property has never paid
taxes for the years claimed, and that the
legislative act is constitutional. 1t is not
likely that the case viii be decided before
October.
John A. Sewart, while out hunting yes
terday, had his right foot terribly man
gled by the accidental discharge of his
shotgun. He walked two miles after be-
ing wounded; was then brought sixteen
miles to this city for treatment, and is do
ing as well as could be expected.

OF yesterday proceedings, which showed

contrast the efficacy of the system of
counting quorum in vogue in the Fifty
hrst congress with that recently adopted
by the House He insisted that the eXpe-
rience of mankind demonstrated that the
former was the better.

system, asserting its superiority over any
that had gone before it in that it eimi-
mated the liability of intentional error.

New York. July 16.-North Carolina
Since middle of June rains excessive, in
terfering with cultivation. Weather con-
ditions now changed (sunshine) and
crops are being laid by in fair condition,
with prospects Of fine yield. Some of
promised acreage has been turned to
other crops. Area :. 500 acres.
south Carolina-Reports from all sec
tons note crop in excellent condition, hav-
ing fully recovered from the drought of
spring and early summer Although
acreage IS less than last year. under
further favoring conditions promises
nearly average quantity. Poor seed used
IN some localities will certainly lower the
standard and may develop weakness in
plant and reduce the yield. Area planted
81, 500 acres.
Georgia retarded by dry
weather, but under generally favorable
conditions of late crops are developing
finely. Reports confirm greatly reduced
acreage, but as planters have selected
the cream OF lands, yield promises two
thirds average crop. Area planted 10000
acres
Louisiana.-Planting is practically COM
pleted, although not little is still going
on. The latter crops are belated or ex-
perlmental. In some sections acreage is
considerably less than last year, but in
the majority the area is said to be quite
that taken on in 1892. Wherever less, it
has been that lands might rest or to give
better care to that under cultivation,
hoping for equal if not larger results.
Rains have been frequent, yet the fall is
scanty, only sufficient for immediate de-
mands. This causes apprehension among
those making providence crops and
also wherever the reserve supply is light
or exhausted. Bearing exceptional in
stances, early paintings show vigorous
growth, good stand, clean and free of
grass. Later paintings are terminating
and growing finely. Area planted, 147 800
acres.

Newcome said that he could not have IT,

that he meant to get it. Newcome
reached for his hip pocket, and drew out
something that cleaned so dangerously
in the moonlight that the robber loosed
his hold on the wheel and took to the

distance, but looking around saw another
man picking up the wheel. The detective
took aim at him with the weapon, and
the man fed. The deadly tool that New
