Congressional.

Senators from Utah, Frank j. Can:
non and Arthur Brown, were on the
floor OF the Senate to-day for the first
time. They were the center of all
animated group in the rear chamber
where the Senators gathered to en-
tend to them a warm welcome.
Rev. DR.. Milburn, the blind chap
lain, prayed eloquently for bleeding
Armenia. "Hear our cry of agony"
he prayed con behalf of the people Of
Armenia, despoiled and tortured, their
homes in. ashes, their men women and
children slain at the edge of the
sword and their women dishonored.

Christendom, the Queen, Gear, Kals-

their ministers and people, that the
Sultan shall be forced TO sheath his
bloody sword and stay the frenzied
rage of his fanatical soidiery and sub
jects."
The introduction of the Utah Sena-
tors occurred immediately after the
chaplain's invocation. Dubois pre-.
sented the credentials of Cannon, and
Burrow those Of Brown. The ere.
dentials were read and the two new
Senators proceeded to the desk of the
Vice President, where, with uplifted
hand, the oath of office was taken.

asks the American Congress to take

upon the Interstate Commerce
Commission for information as to
discrimination on passenger and

And Shoot Him by the Light of the Burning
Building-Grave Charge Against
Georgia Machinists

Macon, Ca, Oct. III. A. Brady a
wealthy merchant of Dublin, Ga, and his
clerk, Plummer Smith, are on trial in. that
town for arson, having been arrested a
few days ago. Tuesday morning at 2
o'clock the Emerald City institute build
ing, in which several parties sleep, among
whom was City Detective Hathawa, was
discovered to be on fire. The fire was of
incendiary origin kerosene having been
profusely poured over the house. The in
tention, it seems, was to burn the house
and as Mr. Hathawa would leave the
building to shoot him from ambush. But,
fortunately, the house being. situated
among nest of residences, the fire was
discovered and the alarm given and sew
eral neighbors reached the scene before
the murderous intention of the incendia-
ries could be carried out.
The case is of such gravity, that If the
prisoners are proved guilty they may be
hanged, as arson, where life Is endan-
gered or threatened, Is a capital offense
in this state.
Brady has been arrested several times
for running "blind tiger" but has sue
ceeded in thwarting the law. The people
are greatly excited and determined to
push the case against him.

OFF CAME CLAYTON'S HEAD
He Was SummariIy Removed by
the President Yesterday,
" OFFENSIVE PARTISANSHlP"
The Sinister News Came to Him Red Hot from
the Wires
BUT NOT ALTOGETHER UNEXPECTED
Interesting Correspondence Led Up to 1t.
Mr.. Clayton Vigorously Disclaimed
That He Was Negecting the
Duties OF His Office.
BUT NOT ALTOGETHER UNEXPECTED

Washing ton, Oct. 17.-Henry d. Clay
the middle district of Alabama, was to-
day summarily removed from Office by
the president. Mr.. Clayton was a dele
gate to the Chicago convention, is now a
candidate for congress from the Third
district of Alabama and is a near relative
of Sena tor Pugh of that state. Assistant
District Attorney G. F. Moore has been
placed in charge of the place. Some in
teresting correspondence led up to to-
days action by the president Early in
October Attorney-General Harmon wrote
Mr.. Clayton letter, stating that newspa-
per clippings and letters showed that he
was candidate for congress, and his du-
ties as district attorney made the two po-
sitions inconsistent with each other. To
this letter no reply was received. On Oc-
tober s Attorney General Harmon wrote
Mr. Clayton another letter, in which he
assumed that his first letter had not been
received by Mr.. Clayton. He repeated
much of his first letter in substance, and
concluded: please advise me upon re-
ceipt of this what you propose to do, in
view of the rule which makes your can
didacy for another office inconsistent
with the holding of your present posi-
tion.''
Mr. Clayton on October IA replied from
Montgomery, Ala, to this last letter of
Attorney-General Harmon. He stated
that he was the regular nominee OF the
democratic party from the Tniro
district for congress, and was engaged
in the discharge of his duties as district

attorney; that he had heard of no COM
plants as to his neglecting his work, but
that he was making speeches in behalf of
his candidacy. He concluded as follows:
II am not aware that any of the duties
of my office have been neglected. I have
thought that a man, though an office
holder, had the right of speech and the
right to aspire to represent his people. l
do not believe that my retention of the
office of district attorney should preclude
me from those rights of citizenship which
are enjoyed by my fellow citizens. l
therefore decline to admit that my candi-
dacy for congress is inconsistent or in
compatible with my present position"
Attorney General Harmon laid the cor
respondence before the president and at
2 o'clock today this telegram was sent:
Department of Justice,
washington, Oct 16, 1896.
Henry D. Clayton, Office United States
District Attorney, Montgomery, Ala.-

WEEKLY BANK STATEMENT.
1t Is Not as Favorable as Had Been Anti
ipated.


New York, Oct. 1.-THE New York FL
nancier says this week:
AS a result of their operations for the
week ending October II the associated
banks of New York city report a decrease
of $3,6S8, 100 in reserve, and loss of 81,
S85,500 in cash. the gain of $6S6,00 in spe-
Gle having been offset by the heavy loss
of $5,571 900 in legal tenders. Despite
the fact that the receipts of gold from
abroad during that period covered by
the report have been heavy the state
ment Is not as favorable as had been an
ticapated. 1t is complicated, however,
by conditions which do not appear on
the surface. The banks lost to the inte-
rior, as uear as can be estimated, some
thing like $1,000 900, and the only offset
was the increase in specie as shown in
that item. But all the gold received dur
ing the week did not figure in the state
ment, and this fact, together with the
assurance that imports are bound to con-
tinue in heavey volume rather favors the
idea that the money market will not ex-
hibit that degree of stringency which a
superficial study of the statement might
indicate.
The discrepancy between the total loss
of cash and the amount which went into
the interior is large, and the only way to
account for 1t Is on the supposition that
large loans were made for gold import
ing purposes. That these were made is
known, as the calls by banks on borrow.
ers during the week affected the loan
market daily. If the banks had not put
this money out again the contraction in
the loan item would have been very
heavy. AS it is, there is only change of
1854, 900 since the statement of October
10. The open premium ruling on gold in
dicates that there must be a. demand for
1t, and there is doubtless some boarding,
but the current statement does not re-
fleet this in a general way. As compared
with August 20 last the deposits of New
York banks have increased only $1,000
900, although the imports of gold since
that time have been in the neighborhood
of $50, 900, 900. This will indicate the vol
ume of the interior movement. In the
same time loans have expanded only ST.
$50, 900, and the reserve is only $SOOoOoo

New York, Oct. 17.-After long So
journ in this country, as apostolic dele
gate from the see of Rome, Cardinal
Satolli bade adieu to America today. He
was a passenger sailing for Genoa on the

ing Washington the cardinal had been
the guest of Archbishop Corrigan and the
recipient Of distinguished consideration
at the hands of clergy and laity. mark
led climax to his stay in New York was
great outpouring this morning of eminent
churchmen and laymen, distinguished in
every walk of life, that assembled on the
steamboat Valley Girl to accompany his
eminence down the bay. On board the
Valley Girl were Archbishop Corrigan
100 Catholic clergymen Of the city and
vicinity, Rev. Brother Justin, president
of Manhattan college, the college faculty
and over 1000 of the leading Catholic citi-
zens of New York. AS the Valley Girl
steamed near the Hamburg dock the car
dinal, who was already on the big steam
er Kaiser Welhelm II, was described
watching the animated scene on board
the approaching steamboat. The play
ing of the bands, the huttering flags, the
enthusiasm of all on board presented a
scene long to be remembered. The cardi-
nal waved his hand In recognition, which
called forth prolonged cheers. Brother
Justin headed delegation from the Val
lev Girl to say q parting word to the car
dinaI. Leaving her moorings the big
Hamburg steamship moved down the
bay, accompanied by the Valley Girl
When the narrows were reached mighty
shout went up and the cardinal and his
escort parted company.
