In the Matter Of Proposed Legislation
Against Building and Loan Associations.
i MEANS QUADRUpLE TAXATION
Says Mr.. ID. NJ. AEcy, General Manager
OF the Definite Contract Assosin-
tion-An Interesting Interview
Tho schwitzer Bill Revised and
Arranged.

The building and loan men Of this
section are very much wrought up over
proposed legislation affecting their
business, ard yesterday there was O
meeting of representatives of the prIn-
cipal companies in Norfolk and Ports
mouth in the office Of the Mutual
Building and Loan Association, in the
Moritz building.
The meeting was q brief one. but
everything WIS to the point. 4 re-
solution was passed instruoting the
secretary Of the meeting TO write 10
Richmond to discover when the meas
ures referred to will come up for con-
sderation When this information Is
received n called meeting will be held
ana delegation selected to 80 to
Richmond
One of these bills proposes to limit
inc rate to be charged by building
and loan associations to per cent
Inc other Is to tax individual shares.
The building and loan mon say if these
measures pass they will ruin the bust
ness and that every association in. the
STATE Will have to go into liquidation
They say that the measures, if
passed, will create regular chaos in
the building and loan business At
present they are permitted to charge a
premium In addition to the regular
b per cent. If this premium Is cut off
they say. 1t will be impossible for stock
10 mature in anything like the time
now fixed.
1t Is understood that further action
on the bills has been postponed until
perhaps, two weeks later. At least this
is the information contained in an an
swer from Senator Maynard, to whom
the query was sent yesterday, and who
looked Into the matter for his Norfolk
and Portsmouth friends.
AS yet the delegation from this sec
ton has not had chance to show
where 1t stands in this matter, but it
Is thought ). will be with the building
and loan people when the question
comes to an issue. Mr.. ]. Taylor Ely
son, chairman of the Democratic party
OF the State. and, as is well known,
away up in the regards of the people
of this section. has been written to
and will probably be asked to use his
influence against the measures.
1t is probable that the lobby against
the bills will be one of the strongest
ever sent to Richmond, as practically
every building and loan association in
the State will be represented.

Tomorrow being Easter Day. the
greatest festival in the Church calendar,
exceptionally beautiful music will mark
the services in all tho churches of every
denomination. Glad tldings of great Joy
will ring ont in gorlfcation Of the risen
Lord, and the black drapery of yesterday
will be replaced with great banks of flow
ers and everything will testify to the
power Of the roivrroctioE.
This was Holy Saturday. In the Catho
lie churches the first service this morning
was the blessing Of tho Easter fire. This
was followed by the singing of the
Exultet," u triumphant hymn of praise,
and later followed by tho blessing of the
baptismal font. The water in the font is
scattered towcrd tho four quarters of the
world. to Indicate tho catholicity Of the
church and the world wide efficacy of her
sacraments.
The mass this morning was truo Eas' er
mass, for during 1t, in the Gospel, Is sung
the history Of the resurrection. At the
Gloria the organ sounded and the bell was
rung-their silence having been unbroken
since the singing Of the Gloria in the mass
on Thursday. The joyful "alleluia' was
sung after the epls tie.

Never before has there been such dissat
israction among tho ministers because OF

morning went to Worcester, Mass, to
consult Bishop Newman concerning an
adjustment of the assignments. Bishop
Newman is holding Il session OF the New
England Conference there. 1t is expected

ference to Laurel will be effected in ex-
change for the Rev. ID. H. Corkran. who
was assigned there by Bishop Newman.

Corkran will not preach.
The tangle at Pocomcke City also is to
be Strengthened out.
The Row. G. &. Mclean of the San
Francisco Conference, whom II was said
is to be transferred to Pocomoke City has

Our Virginia Letter.

Virgins w. Va, April g. 1898 Last
Wednesday the good people of Hinton
wero greatly excited over q remarkable
case of suicide.
1t seems that man known as Colonel
jones opened saloon at that place some
three years ago. On tho day mentioned
our Sheriff received a warrant for the ar.
rest of Jones for the murder of defense
less woman with whom he had been inti-
mate at Danville Virginia.
The Sheriff arrested him and Justice
Ewart gave the Sheriff an order for his
commitment to the county prison.
Jones asked that the Sheriff and his
deputy might go with him to his saloon
and send for his married daughter to
whom he desired to give his watch and
some other things be had.
He was taken to his saloon and his
daughter was given the watch and money
and on her leaving he deliberately went
behind counter and, taking revolver
from the money drawer placed 1t to his
right temple sending the bullet in an up
ward direction clean through his head, and
fell dying to the floor.
This is the first tragedy which has oc.
Cured in Hinton.
The annual Conference of Methodist
Church South met in Hinton q few days
since. Tho ministers are highly praising

l am told the demand for chickens dur
ing conference exceeded the supply. and
buyers paid as high as twelve cents per
pound.
We are having cold frosty weather, and
great fears are entertained that We will
have very little fruit, II any.
Our farmers sowed this last fall twice
tho quantity of wheat they have ever
sown.
There will be a large corn crop this
season If the farmers will only put in big
one.
When you hate man and say mean
things about him you ought to hear what
he says about you.
A week ago at Hinton VIM. Denner
thirty years old, n G. Il o. brakeman was
struck by engine No. 10 in the yards and
instantly killed.
His body was terribly manglod; the
heart was found twenty feet away from

of case recently announced with great
dignity, II will hold this case uuder ad-

and freedom of Cuba from Spanish
dominion, but the obligations and du-
ties that might be imposed upon the
United States after we had expelled
Spain from the Island. This discus
sion revolved around two propositions,
namely. intervention without recogni-
,tion of national independence of the
Cuban insurgents and Intervention
= with concurrent recognition of the in
dependence of the present insurgent
government of Cuba. Some public men
lowered between these two PROPOSE
lions and favored a compromise.
There was no definite lead by which
II could be stated with anything like
authoritativeness which course would
be adopted, but the unsettled state Of
public opinion on the matter indicated
that the events of the next few days,
the strength Of the arguments of the
forthcoming presidential message or
Q distinct utterance from our consul
general to Cuba might be strong
enough to incline the balance to either
course.
The cabinet held its usual Friday
change in the Spanish situation. In
deed, it was chiefly significant in estab-
fishing that no change had occurred,
that none was expected and that the
program Of action on the part of the
United States government was al
ready made up. The presidents mes
sage remains unaltered, and this being
the last cabinet day before the message
will go to congress alterations are un-
likely between now and Monday, bar
ring altogether unexpected develop
ments from Madrid. After the meet
Ing cabinet officers stated that the
message would be sent to congress on
Monday, no change in that respect
having been considered and all causes
Tor delay having been removed.
Cabinet Calm. But Determined.
The calmness Of the cabinet meet
ing, which was one of the most I'M
eventful held in recent days, was an
other evidence of the feeling enter
tained by the administration that the
case is made up, and that nothing now
remains to be done but to present the
subject to congress and await the final
outcome there. The feeling that an
end had come to diplomatic talk, and
That action alone remained, was shared
In all quarters. including the foreign
embassies and legations. The pres;-
aent's attitude is emphasized by a mes
sage to the New York Journal in which
he says IF congress still desires war
