BRIBERY ALLEGED.
MIR. Martin offered an EmpIoye $3.50 to
Burn His Warehouse,

RALEIGH, N. c.. Oct. 90 "A special
to the News and Observer from Durham
N. Q. says: Durham is oil excitement
over the denouement Of disastrous
ire that occurred there OIL Tuesday
last. The fire destroyed the large leaf
tobacco storage warehouse belonging to
Thomas x. Martin.
This was probably the largest prize
house in the State and Mr.. Martin mas
been one of the largest and most sue
cessful leaf dealers. He is prominent
in Durham business and social circles
and is reported to be worth $4,000 to
$4,000
1t can be imagined. therefore, what a
sensation was created yesterday when
Mr.. Irvine, Mr. Martins book.keeper
and buyer, swore on the stand that
Albert Latta. another employe OF Mr..
Martins, had told him two DAYS before
the fire occurred that Mr.. Martin had
offered him (Latta) $3.50 to burn the
building.
Latta was held to the next term of
court under heavy bond, which was given
by Mr.. Martin and others OF his friends.
Martins friends are not prepared to
believe Irvine's story without further
investigation, and yet there are MANY
who can see no reason why Irvine should
have told the story unless there was
truth in IT,
Mr.. Martin has not been arrested.

An Exciting Game Betweon the v. A. NJ. @.

An Exciting Game Between the ". A, NJ. @,
Team and Washington and Lse.
BLACKsBURa, Va. Oct. 80 Especially
After showing the Washington and Lee
University team under by score of 80
to 0. the boys from the Virginia Apri-
cultural and Mechanical College have
been having a very jovisl time. The
Lexington people were unanimous in
the opinion that they put up the greatest
game OF ball ever played there. The
Washington and Lee boys put up fine
defensive game, and fought for the pro-
lection of their goal like fends; but
they could neither gain through V. A.
M. C's centre, pass it's ends braak it's
interference, nor withstand the on
slaught of it's line buckers.
After the game the v. A. and M. SC
CADETS were rendered most delightful
reception by Col. VIM. Patton, of Lex
ington, who Is now occupying the chair
of civil engineering ct the v. A. and ri L.
College. Many OF the charming young
ladies of the town were there and the
boys had royal good time. The V. A
and M. G. cadets will not soon forget
Col. and Mrs Patton, the young ladies,
and the students of Washing ton and
Lee University for the most pleasing
and courtly manner In which they were
entertained while in Lexington.
On Sunday morning Leslie D. Kline
manager. took his men to Natural
Bridge. where they spent the day, re-
turning to Blacksburg in the evening.
On November game between Roa-
noke College and the V. A. and M. c.
may be expected on the Roanoke Ath-
letic Club grounds. The Roanoke COL
lege team Is training hard, and all
lovers OF football may look forward to
an exciting game at that time.

TWO SILVER SENATORS.

Senator Teller, of Colorado, and Sem
ator Vest, OF Missouri, one Rspubii-
can and the other Democrat, but both
bold and outspoken in their advocacy OF
the free coinage of silver on the basis OF
16 to /, have recently given utterance to
their views on national issues. The
Colorado Senator declares that rather
than support Republican candidate
for President on gold platform he
would resign his Office and retire to
private life.
Mr.. Vest, however, does not measure
up 10 as high standard on the silver
issue. In late speech to Missouri
audience he pledged himself anew to
the white metal aud brought forward
strong arguments in favor of free coin
age. giving Wall Street incidentally q
thorough roasting; but at the close he
stated that if the Democratic party next
year should in the national convention
write gold standard platform and put
its candidates on 1t he would support
the ticket.

AN EXCITING DAY.
Asquad Of Police Disperses tho Crowd a,
tho Durrant Trial.

va
the Durrant Trial.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 29.-The close
of the arguments for the defense in the
trial of Theodore Durrsnt to-day was
marked by the greatest crowd that ever
fought for admission to murder trial
In this city. The sheriff and his
deputies were not able to control the
mob and requisition was made on the
chief OF police for q squad of twenty
men.
The afternoon session of the court was
several times interrupted by the shouts
OF officers ana cries of women. At last
the court ordered the sheriff to arrest
any person who should refuse to 20 out
of the building. The crowd finally dis
persed without the necessity of making
any arrests.
General Dickinson resumed his argu-
ments for the defense, and concluded
his remarks at noon. The only signifi-
cant feature of his remarks was the
suggestion that Miss Lamont was prob
ably murdered by two men instead OF
one. When Attorney Duprey appeared
at the afternoon session to make the
closing argument for the defense, he
was accompanied by his wife. a nurse
and his physician. He looked weak
from the effects of his recent illness,
and by permission of the court addressed
the jury while seated.
Duprey's impaired physical condition
was apparent in his argument, which
was appointment to the large
crowd. Attorney DupreY said Durrant
was an innocent victim of circumstances
and begged the jury to right the great
wrong that had already been done the
prisoner by acquitting him as speedily
as possible. He could not see how any
juror could doubt for moment that
Durrant attended DR.. Cheney's lecture
on the afternoon OF April 8. District
Attorney Barnes will begin the closing
argument for the prosecution to-mor :
row morning.

TIE PENSION REPORT.

The annual report of the commissioner
OF pensions shows that although thirty
years have elapsed since the close OF the
civil war the roll OF soldiers recei ring
aid from the general government for in
juries received is still increasing.
According to the report the mum Der of
pensioners June 80, 1894, WAS 900, 544;new
pensions added during the year, e,ls5;
dropped pensioners restored, 4,206;
deaths, %, SIG; dropped for other causes,
IA. SIS; making net increase of pen
sioners during the year of 1000. The
pension claims allowed during the year
were, SO, 1s5; rejected, 103, 1856; and cases
pending, 552.21O.
The appropriation for the year was
$50, 600, 900, and there was paid during
the year Sl3s, sO7, 337. The estimates for
pensions for 1897 are S14O, OOO, 900 for
pension payments; $500, 600 for surgeon
fees; $450,0o0 for clerk hire at pension
agencies, and about 5000, 1000 for other
expenses.
The commissioner says that many dis
reputable and incompetent men are en-
gagged as pension attorneys, and sug-
gests that none but reputable memb ers
of the bar be allowed to practice in pen
sion cases, He also gives the bounty
men we'll deserved rap in contrasting
them with the men who enlisted with
outsuch inducements. Under the head OF
Patriotism and Pensions" he says
"Those men who enlisted early and
fought the battles Of the war were not
moved by mercenary considerations,
and unless actually disabled did not
show the haste in applying for pensions
manifested by those who enlisted near
the close OF the war for large bounties,
and did little actual service, and who
are now the noisiest in clamoring for
more pensions. AS compared with this
latter class the real soldiers of the war
have been modest in preferring claims
for pensions"

THE drouth now prevailing is the
longest and most general season Of dry
weather ever experienced in the history
of this country. Creeks, brooks and
springs have dried up, wells have ceased
to give water and in places destructive
forest fires have occurred. The Ohio,
Mississippi and Missouri rivers are
lower than ever before known, and in
SONS portions Of the country people are
meeting In the churches to pray for
rain. Such season happening earlier
IN the year would have been disastrous,
indeed, and is bsd enough as it is.

CONSTITUTIONAL ooNvENr1oN.
Another Substitute Suffrage Plan onere,
Yesterday

Another Substitute Suffrage Plan offered
Yesterday.
COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct. 29.-The con-
vention to-day voted down the woman
suffrage amendment by most decisive
vote OF 121 TO &c. The whole morning
session was given up to the discussion
OF the question. George D. Tillmsn
MADE speech in advocacy of the idea,
claiming that by enfranchising women
with property qualification the whole
people could carry the elections by fair
and honest methods, and by no other
way could they do it. He characterized
the suffrage plan of Senator Tillman as
temporary fraudulent make-shift
which would not endure.
at the night session of the convention
Delegate Patton iutrod uced q gu BIS titute
suffrage plan bssing the franchise upon
military service, giving Confederate
and Union soldiers and their descen-
dants the right to vote regardless of
educational or property qualifica tions,
while these qualifications would apply
10 othar voters.
IN speaking OF the plan, he replied to
the speeches OF the colored delegates,
and said the fact that they were elected
to this convention was abundant proof
that the negroes were not fit to exercise
the suffrage. One of them (Smalls) had
been convicted of bribe- taking, and
another (Whipper) had been elected q
judge and refused a commi asion BY Gov.
ernor Cham berlain, because he was the
deepest OF all OF the horde of corrup-
tionists in dishonor. Smalls replied, as
far as the remarks applied to him,
claiming that, while he had been
charged with bribery, he had been &C
Quilted, and protesting that, in all his
political career, he had never defrauded
the State of cent
Patton claimed that the Tillman idea
had to be carried out fraudulently, else
1t would not accomplish its purp 1se, and
announced that it was never intended
that it should be executed fairly and
justly. Senator Tlllman said that was
broad remark. but replied no further,
as he intends to do go when he gets g
chance to speak. The Patton plan was
not voted on, the debate being ad-
journed.
An effort was made to give the legis-
lsture authority to give the women
suffrage II they at any time thought
proper, but the proposition was killed
by vote OF 1O3 to 40.

THAT SECRET TREATY.
Russian Officials Deny All the Stories OF
such an Agreement

such an Agreement.
LONDON. Oct. 29.-The Russian en-
bassy announced this evening that It
has received an official telegram from
ST. Petersburg completely denying the
stories from Hong Kong to the Times
and Globe about the alleged secret
treaty between China and Russia, by
which the latter was said to have been
granted extraordinary concessions.
The Russian officials here add that
the visit OF the Prince Wong Chi Chaun
to St Petersburg, about which 80 much
has been said recently, was solely un-
dertaken with the object of congratu-
lating the car upon his accession to the
throne.
In regard to the anchoring of Rus
sian fleet at Port Arthur the Russian
embassy is not aware that Russia claims
any rights beyond those of the other
powers and it Is stated that no Russian
warships will be permanently stationed
at Port Arthur.

The interview with Captain General
Campos reported in dispatch from Ha-

gloomy account indeed OF the progress
in suppressing the Cuban rebellion.
The captain general reports that il a
change in his policy is found necessary
it would require 10000 more troops to
quell the insurrection and that even
then $4,000 men would perish. This
gives outsiders q comprehensive esti-
mate OF the magnitude OF the work be-
fore Spain in reducing the island to
subsection. The interview. II correct,
and there is no reason to doubt it's gen
utneness, is virtually an admission that
the Cubans are in fair way to secure
their independence.
