COURT SCENE DENOUNCED.

Savannah. Ga. March 4.-Judge
Emory Speer of the United States cir
cuff court, in charging the grand jury
at the opening of the term. denounced
as disgraceful the recent court scene
in France. when Zola was berated
and insulted by a mob in the presence
of the jury which was trying him."
Such a thing would be impossible in
the courts of the United States. Con-
tinuing. the judge said ours was the
great, strong, humane, conservative ma
ton. He quoted Nelson's famous sig
nal to his fleet when sailing against
the fleets Of France and Spain, England
expects every man TO do his duty" and
said the United States expected every
man to do his duty now. This had no
reference TO possible war. but was re-
garded as significant and timely by the
auditors.

SOUTHERN COMPETITION.
Figures From the Census Report Laid
Before the investigators.

Figures From the Census Report Laid
Before the Investigators.
Lawrence, Mass, March st. p. Ca
hill OF the Weavers' union was witness
before the legislative committee on labor
in the investigation into the cause Tor
the recent reduction of wages In Mas
sachusetts mills. Regarding southern
competition he said that facts In the
matter were inaccessible to- the oper-
atives, and for reasons best known TO
themselves the manufacturers did not
make the figures public. Mr.. Cahill
stated that the Arkwright club was not
sincere In it's opposition TO the 5S-hour
law, but opposed Ii simply 10 head off
further legislation In that direction. The
corporation managers had predicted the
ruin of the manufacturing industry as
n result of labor legislation. such as the
5S-hour law, but their predictions had
not come to pass; hence he did not
want the committee to place too much
weight on the deductions OF the mill men
regarding southern competition. Stats
tics compiled from the United States
census report OF 1890 showed the follow
ing: Number OF spindles per employee:
Maine. 63.O7; Georgia. 43.19; South Caro-
lima. 41.23: North Carolina. 1851; Ala
bama, 37.95.
Labor cost per spindle: Maine, s4.76;
Georgia, s4S6: South Carolina, s4.54;
North Carolina. s4.37; Alabama, s5.g.
Average earnings OF males over ls
years: Maine, s7.52; Georgia, s5.5S;
South Carolina. s5.17; North Carolina,
s525 Alabama. s5.31. OF females: over
16 years: Maine. s5.6S: Georgia, s4.45;
South Carolina, $500; North Carolina,
$321; Alabama, s4l9.
Mr.. Cahill maintained that during the
years from 1880 to 1890 Massachusetts,
and the other New England states more
southern states, though the latter had
the advantage OF longer hours.
Agent Parker favored the restoration
OF the 60-hour law. Cloth for the print.
works could be bought cheaper in the
south than II could be manufactured
here. He did not consider that organ
ization Of labor was the cause of higher
wages being paid at present than in
1891. He had no doubt that 1-3 per-
cent more cloth could be made i'm New
Hampshire than in Massachusetts, be-
cause of two extra hours worked in the
former state He considered IL a hard
ship TO the mill and operatives If a
shutdown OF over 30 minutes was made
that II could not be made up. and he
regarded the labor laws in general as an
expense TO the state.

SIGNS OF REVOLUTION.

New York. March 4.-"The low price
OF coffee and also of silver may cause
a revolution in the republic of Salvador
soon" said Charles Gray Of Blooming
ton, Ills, who has been living I'm that
country for two years. Coffee in SAL
vador is selling for IA pesas per 100
where formerly 1t brought 80 pesas
This is owing TO overproduction and to
the increase in the Brazilian output
The legislation aimed against silver has
sent the price of that metal down. and
Salvador. being a silver using country,
feels the demonetization keenly. For
all their imports the Salvadorians must
pay heavily while they are getting little
for their coffee. This condition they
ascribe 10 their existing government
They blame President Guiteras a great
deal. Guiteras is honest. but weak. and
there are muttered threats OF overthrow
ing him."

Transhipment.
CHAIRMAN BARTON's REPORTS.

Washington, March 4-Arrangements
are being made for the trip OF the Mont
gomery and Nashville to Cuban ports
with relief supplies. The navy depart
ment has been advised that the Mallory
line steamer leaving New York Saturday
would carry free OF charge rs tons, of
supplies to be transferred to the Mont
gomery and Nashville at Key West.
The steamer is expected to take about
four days in the run down the coast so
that the transfer to the warships and
heir start TO Cuba cannot be made be-
,ore next Thursday.
The two warships are poorly adapted
for carrying supplies. having scant quar-
ters for their own supplies of cordage,
provisions. canvas and the ships equip
ment. 1t is only because they can make
the run in daylight that any attempt
is made to carry the rs tons. These will
be stored on the spar deck. and with
good weather the daylight run will not
subject them to any damage.
The relief measures are proving un-
expectedly successful, the supplies run
ming into the carloads and hundreds OF
tons. The state department has had
Hotlce from the 1uDan Tellef committee
at New York that there were shipped on
March from New York TO Santiago
100000 pounds OF necessaries; on the End
TO Havana, $4,000 pounds; yesterday to
Matsnzas. 100000 pounds. and 10 Sagua
la Grande. 100, 900 pounds. In these ship
ments are 100000 grains of quinine con-
signed to each OF the ports except Ha-
vana.
Chairman Barton Of the central Cuban
relief committee has advised the state
department that donations are coming
forward In great abundance, not only
In money, but more particularly In the
form OF provisions from a& directions.
The Oregon committee promises 10 car
loads and possibly 20. and Omaha,
Minneapolis and other western commit
tees are Offering shipments by the car
load. The central committee had upon
the pier of the Munson line in New York
yesterday 100 tons ready for the steamer
which sailed today that the line offered
