The 'lone fisherman on the Stare Re-
publican Executive Committee is W. f..
Clarke, of Craven. RusselFs attorney of
the \. and y. G. X. Il. The nearest that
Iany of the other Pritchard pie eaters
came of being defeated was in the Sew
enth district whore Warren V. Hall
received ten votes to twelve for Pritch-
ards Statesville postmaster j. w. G..
Long. Hall was then unanimously NAM
ed for Vice President of the convention,
a position not provided for in the plan
of organization.
The Lah-de-dah delegate of the CON
vention was Warren V. Hall. Of Cleve-
land. He wore a peas green shirt. Il two
story rundown collar. Il red and yellow
necktie. delicate enough for maiden of
II sweet summers, his pants were striped
and his coat was spOtlessly white, his
hair was faultlessly tOns0rialized, and
with a palm-leaf fan he very delcately
and cautiously agitated the atmosphere.
Russell walked into the convention at
exactly II o'clock. There was not a
ripple of applause He took a seat be-
tween his political he'd fellows, Gizzard
French and Doctor Norment. He was
not even invited to take Il seat on the
stage. the first time perhaps i'll the his
tory of the State when II Governor has
been ANONYMOUSLY ignored by con-
vention of his party. His corpulent ex-
cellcncy. however. was not disturbed by
the ndignity. He soon began holding n
levce and all his pie-eaters came M to
shake hands with him. but when Chair
man Holton sat down without even Il rel
erence to him or his administration. there
was scowl on his face that clearly
showed his disappointinented disgust
and Indignation.
II was n pie-cater who first appeared
before the convention. Oscar Spears,
the Assistant District Attorney, came
forward and stated that he hasl been re-
ouested by Chairman Holton To ask the
Executive Committee to meet him in the
rear Of the hail.

TIL Hon. Richmond Pearson, of Rich
mond Hill, the "opalescent and enpyre-
an" Congressman of the Ninth, cuts
his whiSkers and his dialect after the
English model. There was not man i'll
the whole convention that could say
fewer things in more words than Mr..
Pearson. But then that was his record
in Congress also.

day afternoon, when a vote will be taken.
The annexationists came today determn-
ed to force consideration and for three
hours the opposition flibustered. Con-
sderation of the resolution today could
have been prevented, as under the rules
a recess until the evening session neces-
sarily would have been taken at o'closk,
would win their victory tomorrow. Reaiiz-
ing this and knowing the resolution would
pass and go to the country. involving
prominent issue, the opposition treated
for liberal debate and their demands were
granted readily. Eight Democrats voted
with the annexationists in the movement
today to force the considera ton OF the
resolution, they being Messrs. Berry,
(Ken). Devries (Col), Livingston, (Ga-),
Brucker. Cdich), Cummings, Sulzer and
Vohslage IN. ". and Cochran (No.) II

Mr.. P. Ketcham Of Pike City. Cal, says:

much trouble and loss TO keep the fact in
mind.
Men talk as if wheat had gone down
out of sight, but the collapse of the May
speculation has only made it more evil
dent that the outside world requires near
ly if not quite all the wheat this coun-
try can spare. Last week Atlantic ex-
ports, -four included. were 4,206 293 bushels,
against 1854, 6O2 last year, and Pacific ex-
ports were 253.213, against 125212 lost year,
and it is close TO the end of the season.
over 10000 900 bushels of wheat have al
ready been exported, and almost 200, 900 900
bushels Of corn, 4,134,S0O bushels during
the past week, against 1,7S7,03 last year,
and the market is justified in feeling that
that those who have gone so far beyond
all precedent in defying current repores
are entitled to pay for it.
Iron and steel production has declined
because several establishments have stop
ped for repairs. Yet the weekly output
June 1, 225, 337 tons, against 234 163 May I,
with the unsold stock, which decreased
1912 tons during the month, Indicate a
consumption weekly Of 233, SIG tons, against
72S,25S in April, so thar the ablest iron
journals are in error in saying that the ap
parent consumption does noPAkeep with
the production Of one million tons month
ly. Eastern markets are much more en-
barrossed than before, while the western
are crowded beyond all precedent. But
prices are not changing in either sec
tons.
In cotton goods there is a stronger tone
throughout with print cloths sustained
at the recent advance. but the coming
crop is watched with anxiety. It is still
somewhat doubtful whether the demand
for goods during the past two months has
been materially checked by the expecta-
ton that the price of cotton. and conse-
quently the price of goods, would decline
and if so a marked advance in prices and
increase in demand may he expected.
Failures for the week have been 203 in
the United States, against 262 last year,
and II in Canada. against 30 last year.

Resolution Wednesday,
HAWAII IN THE HOUSE

Washington, June 1o.-Shortiy after 4
o'clock this afternoon the conference re-
port on the war revenue bill was agreed
TO by the senate, after a discussion last
ing four hours. The debate on the mea-
sure was without special interest and
The debate indicated generally that the
bill as agreed upon by the conference was
reasonably satisfactory to everybody ex-
cept as to the bond provision. The votes
cast against the adoption of the report re-
lected the opinions Of those senators who
are opposed to any increase in the inter
est bearing debt Of the country.
The report was agreed to by the deci-
sive vote of 43 TO %. Every Republican
voted for the measure, and their votes
vera supplemented by thos of eight
Democrats, one silver Republican, and one
Independent The Democrats who voted
for the adoption of the reports were
Messrs. Caffery. German, Lindsay, Nc
Emery. Mitchell. Morgan, Murphy, and
Turpie; the silver Republican was Mr.
Mantle; and the Independent was Mr..
Kyle. The vote against the report was
cast by IS Democrats, three silver Re-
publicans and three Populists.
AS soon as the engrossed bill can be
signed by the presiding officers of the two
branches Of congress it will be sent to the
president.
Just at teclose Of the session this eve
ming bitter personal discussion was pre-
cipitated by Mr.. Butler (Popl N. c., who
attacked Mr.. Kyle for hoving voted for
the issuance of bonds. Mr.. Butler, speak
ing as the chairman of the POpulist ma
tional committe, officially declared that
Mr.. Kyle did not represent the Popuhst
party. Mr.. Kyle replied warmly, saying
that he was responsible for his political
actions, not to Mr.. Butler, but to his con-
science and to his constituents. Suisse
quently he demanded as Intentional and
malicious falsehoods" some statements
made about him by Mr.. Pettigrew.

interest of the queen regent. which might
perhaps give fatal offense.
Nevertheless, a decided opinion is held
that the time for Intervention is very near
at hand. although a hesitation to take the
first step is evident everywhere The
probability is that Russia will undertake
the initiative within one or two days.
1t is known that the American govern
ment has become more approachable on
the subject Of Intervention. With regard
to the Philippines, no doubt exists in
official minds in Vienna that the islands
can not remain in the hands Of America.
The insurgents there reject all foreign
control, and, moreover, it is scarcely con-
ceivable that America could provide a
sufficient force to enable her to take full
possession of so extensive a group offs
lands. The probability is that the powers
will find a way out of the difficulty by re-
establishing a sort OF protectorate, which
perhaps England might undertake. One
fact, however, is incontrovertible the
united cabinets are agreed that the Phil
lippines must remain In open market for
the commerce of the world.
Madrid, June lot Is reported that
Germany will propose a meeting of the
European conference TO discuss the ques-
ton of the Philippines.
An interview which the German ambas-
sador, Count De Radowitz has had with
Duke Almedovar De Rio, minister OF for
eign affairs, has provoked general com
ment.

The standard of the Celestial Empire Is
a very queer looking affair. II represents
the most grotesque of green dragons on
a yellow ground. The latter is suggestive
not only of the national complexion, but
also of that of a sufferer from biliousness.
To remove this unbecoming tint from the
complexion, use Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which will speedily regulate your
liver, prevent malaria, and remedy dys-
pepsia, nervousness, rheumatism and kid
