to the Bland-AllisOn Bill.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. May 4-Hon. A.
Sewer. of Texarkana. has received a letter
from Secretary j. G. Carlisle, explaining
certain passages in the speech made by Car
Isle in the Forty-ffth Congress In support
of the Senate amendments to the Band
Allison bill. The speech to which the letter
referred is printed on Page Al of the Ap-
pendix to the Congressional Record for the
second session of the Forty-fifth Con-
gress Mr. Carlisle's letter. under date of
April %, follows:
Dear Sir-Your favor of the 18th inst.
is just received. The speech to which You
refer was never printed In pamphlet form,
but only in the Congressional Record. 1T
was made in support OF the Senate amend
fnents to the Bland-Allison bill. In re-
gard to the amendments, which struck out
and inserted a provision for the purchase
and coinage of not less than 81. .000, 900 worth
nor more than 100000 worth of silver
bullion each month, said: Now sir, Uhile
this amendment is objectionable to me in
some respects. am constrained to say that
1t is not on account OF its reputation of the
free coinage provisions OF the original BILL
and 1 will state as briefly as possible the
reasons which compel me to take this view
of the subject
our coinage laws and showed that when
either of the metals was undervalued at
the mints, Ii was driven out OF the country
and that the metal which was overvauled
in the coinage laws always remained in
circulation, and / said am for every
practicable and constitutional measure that
will aid US in devising a just and perma-
nent ratio of value between the two metals
SO that they may circulate side by side and
not alternately drive each other into exile
from one country to another
Il have never made speech or written
a letter in favor Of the free coinage of
silver at the ratio of 16 to !, or, in fact, at
any other ratio. and the quotation which is
so often made from the speech to which
you refer was a denunciation OF a policy
otherwise from three-seyenths to one-half
OF the metallic money of the world, as
is shown by the speech itself. At that time,
the silver dollar had been dropped entirely
from our coinage. and was by law legal

North Carolina Act that Was Not
Passed by the Legislature.

RALEIGH, n. c.. May A case of great
Importance and interest was decided here
in the Superior Court to-day. This was
what is known as the assignment law case,
in which it is charged that a certain act
regarding assignments was tabled in the
lower House Of the Legislature, and never
was before the Senate at all, yet was
fraudulently enrolled and ratified. Governor
Carr, in the capacity of private citizen,
broUCht suit against Secretary of State
Coke, to restrain the latter from delivering
this fraudulent document to the printer for
publication in the laws. The judge decided
he had no power to go behind the ratifica-
tion OF the act the latter now appears
in the Office of the Secretay of State. Carr
now appeals to the Supreme Court. No case
in the State ever attracted more attention
than this one.

VIII Speak at Memphis.

MEMPHIS. Tenn. May 4-w. J. Craw
ford. chairman of the committee on ar
rangements of the sound-money convention
which is to meet in this city May %, has
received from Secretary Carlisle his accept
ance of an invitation to address the gath
ering the date mentioned. In the course
of his letter Secretary Carlisle says:
THE Importance of the subject to be con-
sidered at the proposed convention justifies
the hope and belief that the people in all
parts Of the South will take advantage or
the opportunity to be fully represented in
its deliberations by their ablest and most
trusted citizens. While the country is
deeply interested in the preservation of a
sound currency, no part of it, in my opin-
ion, will be more injured than the South
by the adoption OF a deprecated and fluc-
tuating standard of value. Believing that a
temperate and intelligent discussion is all
that Will be required to secure correct
popular decision, / accept your kind invita-
tion, and will endeavor 10 contribute my
share toward the accomplishment ct this
result"

Poisoned His Three Little Children

ATLANTA, Texas, May 4.-William H.
Waddle yesterday gave some deadly poison
to his three children, aged from six to
ten years, and then took dose himself,
evidently with suicidal intent. The children
all died in few minutes. Waddle is alive,

months ago, and it is believed that her
loss is the direct cause for his act.

postmaster came in for his turn the dele
gates jumped up in their seats and made
as much noise as five hundred men could.
Mr. Hesing occupied a seat in the front
row with the First ward delegation. His
countenance often portrayed his disap-
proval of the speakers line of reasoning,
but the personal illusions apparently did
not disturb him. The convention adopted
a 16 TO l platform out and out and elected
delegates to the Springfield convention.
Ex-Judge s. p. Mcconnell was made tenn

speech: The President of the United

his power as leader had gone, and that
he had no following among the Democrats.

MINNEAPOLIS. May A prominent citi-
zen of Rolla, y. d., telegraphs that the
Indian difficulty there has been fomented
and stirred up by the scheming of the dep
uty United States marshals to get fees and
mileage. He charges, and offers to back up
his charges with afndavits, that there would
never have been any trouble if Deputy
SCHNEIDER had not caused a great number
of arrests on fictitious or trivial charges
for what there was in it. SCHNEIDER devotes
a good deal OF time to looking up supposed
irregularities, swearing out warrants and
taking the supposed offenders on long rail-
road trips to Bismarck or Grand Forks
where. occasionally. they plead guilty, are
sentenced to few days in Jail and are then
released. He is charged with procuring the
sale of liquor to the half-breeds in order
to trump up cases and even arrests his own
friends and relatives when they want

ST. JOHN. n. d., May 4.-The day has
been one of much excitement, but ended
without bloodshed. Indian Agent Hall
came up from the agency this forenoon and
drove out to where the half-breeds were
fortified in Kingan's house. He urged them
not to resist the officers, saying that all
who took part in the resistance were equal
ly liable. Red Thunder, in reply said the
marshals could not have the men wanted :
that they were not strong enough without
troops. Some of the Indians said they
wanted further time TO decide. They ex-
pected a message from Bottineau. at WASH
ington, who is acting as their attorney in
supporting their land claims. Hall then
came into town. having promised to return
for their final answer whether they would
give UP the men wanted peaceably. This
afternoon Mitchell IAngen, one of the men
for whom warrants are out, came into town
and was arrested.

The Dancing School Social.

Notwithstanding the extremely in
clement weather of the early hours, the
dancing party last evening given by
Paul Thom and his senior class passed
off very successfully. Concordia Opera
house was filed with over fifty couples
of merry dancers, numbering some of
the city's best known young people.
and it was essentially an affair of the
youthful folks, only few married
couples to provide the tone-like cha
peronage being present. The scene
was an unusually gay and spirited one
During every one of the twenty num-
bers contained on the programme did
the entire company remain, SO enjoy
able was the occasion, and it was in
deed the proverbial wee sma' hours
ere homes were sought and dreams in
dulged in over the numberless pleas
ures of the evening. Hardege's or
chestra was at its best and beautiful
music was the result. Mr.. Thorn has
brought out many classes of dancers IN
our midst, but none of his efforts has
been attended more successfully than
his most recent one, and it is no doubt
a source Of considerable qualification
to him to be thus favored.

Purchased the Factory.

Last Thursday afternoon was the
date set for the disposition of the prop
erty of the Phillip Heinrichs' COM
pany at assignee sale, the transaction
taking place at the office ofthe assignee,
G. II. jacob. The property con-
sisting of the furniture factory build
ings and their mechanical furnishings,
and the real estate adjoining, was bid
in by D. II. Kusel, Leonard Schempf
and John Davies, stockholders in the
defunct company. It is understood
that the consideration is the amount Of
a mortgage covering the property ag-
gregating a little over Sc, 900. The price
paid is deemed dirt cheap and the pur-
chasers are generally thought to have
secured great bargain. The site has
a frontage on First street of 268 feet,
and real estate near it has sold as high
as $50 per foot, thus making the land
without the buildings worth fully as
much as the purchase price. 1t has
not been given out as yet whether the
factory will be operated or not, but
many think there is an excellent field
in our midst for such an institution
properly managed.
