Government Receipts Today. ‘The receipts from internal revenue today ‘were $393,314; from customs, $460,339. MORE TREASURY NOTES. Mr. McLaurin Explains the Provisions of His Joint Resolution. How He Believes the Proposed I Would Aid People of the South and West. The House committee on banking and cur- | Fency today continued its hearings upon the measures pending on its calendar. Kepre- sentative McLaurin of South Carolina spoke in favor of his joint resolution providing for the issue of $125,000,000 of additional treas- ury notes, the preamble declaring that $25.- 000,000 of the previous issues are lost or de- stroyed, and are to be charged off on the books of the treasury. The speaker began by a long account of the situation in his own state, which had suffered from a lack of currency. In the course of this part of his statement he pre- sented for the information of the committee a $ certificate issued by the Columbia clear- ing house and based upon securities ap- Proved by the clearing house committee of the value of $7.50, deposited with them for the redemption of the certificate. c e of the Recent Stringency. He safd that the recent monetary strin- gency was due to the sale of United States securities held abroad. This being true, he asserted, it was unwise and dangerous for the United States to invite investments of foreign capital. The remedy for the trouble, Mr. McLau- rin argued, was to give to the people a suf- ficient volume of domestic money to do busi- ness and maintain values without depen- dence upon any foreign investor. Mr. McLaurin devoted a considerable por- tion of the time to an argument intending to show that the fear that the volume of Paper money, including the increased i sue proposed by himself, would be d: erous to the financial interests of the coun try is unfounded. The yuld reserve, he claimed, was 17 per cent of the whole amount proposed to be issued, and that was a8 great a ratio of reserve'as that upon which the national banks did business. How the Increase is to Be Available. Mr. McLaurin said, in answer to a ques- tion by Mr. Warner as to how this money was to be made available, that the idea he had when the resolution was introduced was that the Secretary of the Treasury should deposit it in the banks of the south and west so as to assist them in the move- ment of the wheat and cotton crops. That idea had originated in his knowledge of the fact that in cases of money famine in Wall street the government had deposited funds in the New York banks to relieve their distress, and he could see no reason why the other sections of the country | should not be favored in the same way. Upon this point of finding a use for the money Chairman Springer suggested that official advices were that there would be a deficiency in the treasury this year of %0,. 000,000, and that $25,000,000 of bonds ar now due, payable at the option of the govern- | ment, making @ place for $75,000,000 of the money. Besides this, the Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Springer said, has testified before the committee on ways and means that the balances in the treasury were too low for a successful administration of the government finances. There ought to be, he said $50,000,000 of cash at the disposal of the treasurer. Mr. Sperry, by questioning Mr. McLaurin as to the manner in which thé cotton Brower was to be benefited by this proposed increased volume of currency, precipitated a discussion among the members of the committee, especiaily Messrs. Sperry, Cobb and Hall (Mo.), as to the distinction be- tween price and value, in the midst of which the hour of noon arrived. The com- mittee then adjourned until Tuesday next, when Representative Davis (Kan.) will be heard upon his bill to issue treasury notes in amount equal to national bank circula- tion retired, and to issue fractional cur- rency.

De- Had Their Crutches Counted. ‘When tellers are called for in the House, the two members designated as tellers stand one on each side of the middle aisle, in front of the Speaker's desk. The other day Gen. Sickles and Gen. Stone of Kentucky, who fought on opposing sides during the Trebel- Mon and each of whom lost a leg in the struggle for his opinions, met in front of the tellers and not noticing, both tried to get through the narrow way at the same time. Their crutches clashed together and there was a blockade. ‘ach stepped back for the other as quickly as his crutches would permit and then each stepped forward again to avail himself of the courtesy of- fered by the other. So they met again in the narrow pass. Then one backed off to the right and the other to the left. Each raised a crutch in the air as a salute and they shook hands and went back to their seats. A minute or two later Gen. Sickles sent his crutch through the tellers in the hand of a page to be counted as a vote. ee To the World's Fa’ A large party of patent office people left this afternoon for the world’s fair.

CHANDLER TALKS He Advocates His Resolution as to the Fairchild Commission, THE PRESIDENT SOMEWHAT CRITICISED. He Tried Vainly to Get Mr. Hill Into the Discussion. DULL TALK IN THE HOUSE. a THE SENATE. After the reading of yesterday's journal Mr. Mitchell (Ore.) said that he thought it very singular that the Senate was unable to get a quorum any morning. He called the attention of the presiding officer to the fact that there was no quorum present, and Mr. Washburn (Minn.) remarked that he was very glad he did so. The roll was called, and forty-one Sena- tors answered to their names—two less than a quorum. On motion of Mr. Voorhees (Ind.) the ser- geant-at-arms was directed to request the attendance of absent Senators. “And, said he, in making the motion, “I italicize the ‘request.’ ” After a short delay it was ascertained that there were forty-three Senators pre: ent—exactly a quorum—and morning busi- ness was proceeded with. Two Silver Amendments, Two proposed amendments to the silver Purchase repeal bill were sent to the clerk’ desk and read. The first was by Mr. Wol- cott (Col.) and directs the repayment of the tax collected on cotton under the act of July 1, 1862, to the states concerned. The second was by Mr. Perkins (Col.), and it directs the opening of the mints to th coinage of silver, of proved: American pro- duction, at the existing ratio—20 per cent— to be withheld for minting or seigniorage. No gold pieces are to be issued of a less denomination than $10, and no bank notes or treasury notes of a less denomination than %. It also provides for a commission of five monetary experts. The Fairchild Commission. The resolution heretofore offered by Mr. ‘Chandler (N. H.) to the Fairchild custom house commission was taken up for consid- | eration. The following is the text of it: Resolved, That the Secretary of the Treas- ury be directed to inform the Senate wheth- [er a national commission, composed of | private citizens, is investigating the New York custom house and making reports and recommendations concerning the same; and if so, to further inform the Senate who are the members of said commissiot thority of law they have been ‘appointed and paid; what is their compensation and from what appropriation the payments have been and are made; and to transmit to the | Senate copies of all letters to and from said commission or its members and all reports therefrom. Mr. Chandler explained the object of the Tesolution and gave a resume of the doings of the Fairchild commission; complaining that it had been appointed unofficially and | Rot in accordance with the constitutional provision which requires officers of high | rank to be appointed by the President by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. He sent to the clerk’s desk and had read |the letter of resignation of Appraiser | Cooper, directed to the President, and com- | plaining of the annoyances and insults to which he had been subjected by this “un- official commission, composed entirely of democrats.” And he also read various re- Ports and editorial articles from the New York Tribune criticising the doings of the commission. As to Its Appointment. An inquiry was made by Mr. Sherman as to the authority under which the commis- sion was appointed—a resolution of elther house, or a provision of law. “The object of my statement,” Mr. Chand- ler replied, “1s to show that there was no authority whatever for tt. “Does the Senator know,” Mr. Cullom (iL) asked, “how the commission was ap- pointed ? i “I think I do," Mr. Chandler replied; “and I will state it before I get through with my remarks.” The existence of the commission, Mr. Chandler said, raised an important ‘ques- tlon of constitutional law, and an important question of administration of statutes, which were deserving of fair consideration from all Senators, because the privileges and prerogatives of the Senate were in- volved in the question. Mr. Fairchild and his associates were certainly engaged in the work of “officers of the United States.” They had not been nominated to the Sen- ate and confirmed by the Senate. That was clear. Therefore, there had been a violation of the Constitution. It would hardly be pretended that an ex-Secretary of the Treasury, an ex-collector of the port of New York, an ex-member of Congress from Arkansas ‘and an able and acute lawyer of New York city when appointed members of a commission would be called “inferior officers of the United States.” An Intimation as to the President. He intimated that the President of the United States was “altogether too willing to violate the language of the Constitu- tion.” He admitted that there w some pretext of legal authority for the commis- sion. It was a clause in an appropriation act of 1889 authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to expend a sum not exceeding $100,000 a year for the detection and preven- tion of frauds upon the customs revenue. It was rumored, he said, that all of these gentlemen, including an ex-Secretary of the ‘Treasury, who had rendered great service in the attempt to demolish the senior Sen- ator from New York, had been anxious for recognition by the administration, and that it had not been found convenient to give such recognition. It was also rumored that ex-Collector Magone and Mr. Poindexter Dunn of Arkansas were also desirous of recognition. Whether Mr. McFarlane, the lawyer, had indorsed anti-snapper service, which demanded that he should be reward- ed by the administration, he did not know. But the other three members of the com. | mission had at last found recognition at the hands of the administration, being ap- pointed an investigating commission and be- ing enrolled as employes of the Treasury Department. ‘They had been put upon “the fraud list.” Never had there been so slight an authority for so portentous and magniti- cent a_commission. Mr. Chandler went on to say that it was with great reluctance that he criticised the President of the United States, because he was today engaged in supporting the Pres- {dent in his earnest efforts to secure the unconditional repeal of the Sherman act. Mr. Chandler spoke on his resolution for over an hour, the latter part of his speech being a criticism of the President for his | too great readiness to ignore the laws, and to act on his own ideas. He instanced the appointment of Mr. Blount as minister to Hawall, and ridiculed certain phrases used by the President in his communication to the provisional government of Hawall. He concurred in the view taken by one of the London papers as to the President's letter to Gov. Northen of Georgi: that It had a similarity to the letters of the Emperor William of Germany. Mr. Chandler's efforts to get Mr. Hill into the discussion were without avail. Mr. Hill was in his seat, but said nothing. ‘The resolution was agreed to. THE HOUSE. About fifty members listened to the chap- lain’s prayer in the House today. Mr. Sayers (Tex.) asked unanimous con- sent for the present consideration of a Joint resolution extending until the 30th of June, 1894, the time for completing the work of the eleventh census. There was no objec- tion and the joint resolution was passed. (Continued on Sixth page.) THE BOYNTON INCIDENT. Secretary Herbert Not Yet Decided on His Course of Action. No Actual Offense Appears to Have Been Committed Either Against Brasil or Great rita: There are no new developments today in the Boynton incident in the harbor of Rio and the Secretary of the Navy, who has been charged with the disposition of the case, bas not yet decided on his course of action in the matter. The case is a compli- cated one and may take some time to straighten out. Boynton, a citizen of the United States, was in command of a Brazilian tug illegally flying the flag of Great Britain. He had a torpedo on board his vessel and was suspected of hostile in- tentions toward the Brazilian insurgents. Before he had accomplished anything in that line, however, his tug was seized by a British man-of-war for the unlawful use of the British flag. Learning that Boynton was a citizen of the United States the Brit- ish commander delivered him at once into the custody of Capt. Picking, commanding the U. 8. 8. Charleston, for such action as might be deemed necessary. Capt. Picking informed the Navy Department of the oc- currence and asked if he should send Boynton home. In reply he was instructed to hold Boynton until further orders. A Difference of Opinio: That is, the present state of the case and the legal minds of the State and Navy De- partments are in a quandary as to their course in the matter. The case is regarded as important only because of the difficulty of treatment. It is said at the State De- partment that no international questions ‘whatever are involved in the case, and that it is one entirely within the jurisdiction of the United States civil authorities. There appears to be a great difference of opinion with respect to the actual offense commit- ted by Boynton outside of making an tm- proper use of the flag of a friendly nation, and that offense is clearly condoned by the action of the British commander in surren- dering him to the United States authozities. It is equally clear that no offense has been committed against the Brazilian govern- ment, and the suspected attack on the in- surgents could become an issue only in the event of their success and scarcely then. ‘The Probable Res: ‘The general impression is that the incl- dent will close with a disavowal on the part of the United States of any connec- tion or responsibility for Boynton's action, and that he will be brought to the United States for such action as the case seems to merit. The suggestion is made that the “Boynton” mentioned in these dispatches is very probably Paul Boynton, the diving- suit man, who has been mixed up in simi- lar affairs before. Secretary Herbert last evening received a cable message from Capt. Picking in re- gard to the state of affairs in Rio, but he refuses to make It public. He said it made no reference to the oynton case. In- structions have been sent to Minister Thompson at Rio to see that United Sates merchant vessels trading with Lrazil do not violate the neutrality laws in their deal- ings with that country. —_——_—_+-o+___ NOT TO BE WITHDRAWN. Generally Believed That Mr. Van Alen ‘WA Be Confirmed. ‘The best information to be had is that there is no truth whatever in the statement that the name of Van Alen ts to be with- drawn from the Senate. There is very lit- tle talk on the subject at the Capitol, but the impression that Van Alen will be con- firmed. ee SUPERINTENDENT OF CENSUS. A Rumor That Carroll D. Wright Wil Be Appointed. ‘There is a generally credited rumor to- day that Carroll D. Wright, commissioner of labor, is to succeed J. H. Wardle as su- perintendent of the census. Although this is not stated upon official authority, and cannot be confirmed, there is no doubt but that the fact is here rightly stated. The change is expected to occur within a few days. —____-e+_____ DANGEROUS DERELICTS. Twenty of Them on Our Coasts Form a Menace. ‘Twenty derelicts threaten danger to ves- sels along the Atlantic coast from Maine to North Carolina. It is probable that more such dangerous obstructions to navigation exist, but so far the hydrographic office of the Navy Department has recelved inform: tion that enables it to locate only the num- ber named. Nearly if not quite ell the un- fortunate vessels, were wrecked in the great West Indian hurricane of last Au- gust, and the hulks have been roaming about the ocean ever since. The U. S. S. Kearsarge went out from New York this week and blew up a dangerous derelict off | Barnegat, but no further steps have’ been taken to rid the ocean of these threatening dangers. All obstructions within the lines of inland navigation are under the jurisdic- tion of the Secretary of War, while the Navy Department is empowered to deal with all other impedimenis.

Progress of the International Cricket Match Near Philade! PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 30.—When play ‘was resumed at 11:30 this morning in the international cricket match, between the Australians and Philadelphians, a good- sized crowd had gathered in anticipation of @ continuation of yesterday's remarkable play, when at the close of the day the Philadelphians, who went first to bat, had accumulated 297 runs for a loss of only four wickets. Bohlen and Noble, whose remark- able batting yesterday was the feature of the play, again resumed the defense of the wickets ‘for Philadelphia, the former with eighty-three runs and the latter with sev- enty-three Weather was clear and pleasant. ‘Trumble and Bruce were the bowlers,with Capt. Blackham behind the wickets. After ten minutes’ play Trumble clean-bowled Noble with a “yorker.” Score 3il for five wickets. C. Coates joined Bohlen. Coates declared out leg before wicket. He had scored fif- teen. Total 34 for six wickets. J. W. Muir then joined Bohlen, who shortly ‘afterward closed his big inning by being caught at point by Trott. The batter was loudly applauded as he returned to the club house, with 108 to his credit, the big- gest score ever made in an international match in this city. ‘Total score 33 for seven wickets.

Fogelson, who has been on trial for the past two weeks for the murder of his wife & couple of years ago by poison, was yes- terday afternoon found guilty as charged by the jury. Sentence was deferred. Mrs. Fogelson, the wife of the accused, died in Waldron, Mich., August 9, 1891. Mrs Fogelson’s last illness was attended with spasms, presumably brought on by hypo- dermic injections of morphine. A few weeks after the burial the body was ex- humed, and while the physicians found no symptoms of disease, an analysis of the stomach showed that it contained arsenic and strychnine. About this time Fogelson went crazy or feigned insanity and went to an asylum, where he remained for some time. Upon his release, however, he was arrested and after a long examination was held for trial. The trial has been going on since Septem- ber 11 and has been bitterly contested. It was thought the deferse had made a strong case, but the jury brought in a verdict of guilty in five hours. The doctor showed no emotion whatever. —_—_—_ JUDGES WILL ARBITRATE, How Justice Harlan Thinks Differ- ences With England Will Be Settled. LONDON, Sept. 30.—Justice John M.
