LONDON, Oct. 15—Mrs. Ormistone Chant of the Vigilance association, in a speech at Leamington tonight, said in referenco to the crusade against the Empire Music hall that her action before the licensing committee of the London county council had stirred not only the heart of London, but the whole of England. It was a tremendous thing to at- tack the richest ‘music hall in London. The reason the Empire hall had been selected for attack was that under cover of a most magnificent boilding and a splendid stage show, the promenades were nightly used for traffic between men and women. The case of the association had been proved, Mr. Edwards, the proprietor of the hall, having given notice of discharge to his employes, telling them his inability to sell drinks in the auditorium, owing to the county coun- il's refusing to grant him a license, and the closing of the promenades, meant ruin, CABINET MEETING EXPLAINED, It Was for the P terve rposn of Eng! ng In the Chi o War.

They passed by the island in Lake Caivert, that Is being transformed into the most_beautiful spot in the west, along the water coursing through lateral ditches through the town, in by the woolen mill, now under coastruction, past the knitting mill site to the elevation, where they could overlook the whole and take in Edgemont on one side and the valley on the other, where they could see every part of the mid-republic city. They then planned for the erection of a bank buliding, a hotel and opera house and a number of two-story business buildings, all to be built of the Edgemont cream buff stone. The gentle- men forming the syndicate for these vast improvements are Hon. Thomas Brindley of Philadelphia, of the Chestout Street National bank; Messrs. Dunson and Archer and E. W.

DEFENSE RESTS ON THE RESOLUTION Judge Jere Wilion Argues that Its Wording Was Nou sufcient to the Senate Intended Action on Committes's Report, cate t WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.—Arguments were closed today in the district supreme court on the demurrer of McCartney and Chap- man to the indictment against them for re- fusing to answer questions of the Sugar trust investigating committee, Assistant Attorney General Conrad for the government attacked the defense and the claim of free- dom from Inquisition, saying when a banker's books are made the depository of evidence of crime the production of these books does not constitute invasion of private matters. It must be remembered that these witnesses did not claim exemption on grounds of personal danger to them. Judge Jere Wilson for the defense laid especial stress on the plea that the resolution did not show on its face that it was the purpose of the senate to take action on the results of the committee's investigation. Mr. Wilson maintained that the buying and seli- ing of stocks, matters of daily occurrence In every commercial center of the world, was as legitimate as the buying and selling of horses or rice, or anything else. He characterized this attempt .to Investigate such alleged speculation of the senate as an impertinence and an almless injury destined to cast a slur on somebody. The real point at issue was whether the resloution was such a one as would justify a citizen in re- fusing to testify concerning his private bus- iness. The plea could not be set up that as the senate had the power to expel its members, this information was necessary to that body. He asserted that the senate never intended to expel any member. The history of the investigation showed that at least one semator had openly said: “‘Yes, 1 bought Sugar stock; what are you going to do about it?’ “Whereupon,” sald Mr. Wilson, “the sen- ators from Wayback and Nearby held their peace.” Mr. Wilson argued at length the analogy between the senate resolution and the resolution of the house of representatives in 1878, when Kilbourn was arrested for re fusing to testify, and the United States su preme court held it did not contain upon its face any purpose to do anything in. the fu- ture and sustaining Kilbourn in refusing to show his private records. He cited quite a number of other cases, and concluded by de- claring that if the citizen was not protected against such inquiries the invasion of the rights of the citizen would be absolutely endless, and the sanctity and sacredness of his private affairs would cease. The court took the motion to dismiss on demurrer under advisement, and will render its rulings in a few days. COMING i AD PARLIAMENT. Ity Exp 1 from the Meeting 10 be Held at Atlanta.

SHINGTON, Oct. 15.—O0f particular in- ons who have given attention (o the progress of the movements toward unions of the workingmen is a report transmitted to the State department by Stephen Angell United States commercial agent in Franc which embodies the facts and conclusions weached by the French consul general at Leipsie, respecting the history and opera- tions of the various socleties In Germany whose purpose’ is (he procurement of em- ployment for workingmen. As the history of these societies, given in the report, dates back to 1840 and includes statistics of the work of the varions organizations, such as those devoted to the interests of saflors and of unskilled labor, of municipal organizations and private intelligence offices, the subject is exhaustively treated, and the paper is es- pecially timely in view of the proposition, now under consideration by the German government and submitted for report to the officers of citi and towns, to these various associations under municipal control.

More Complications Over the Tariff La WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.—Another compli- cation has arisen regarding the free alcohol section of the new tariff law. Secretary Carlisle, owing to the fallure of congress to muke the necessary appropriation is unable to put the law Into effect. Notwithstanding the secretary’s decision it is contended that alcohiol used in the arts, etc, is free since merchandise for Fuller, | August 28. Users of alcohol In medicine and In the arts want to know where they violate the law fn removing revenue stamps from the ompty barrel, If they do not they will have no evidence upon which to base oclaims against the government for the return of duties paid since the law went Into effect On the other hand, as the law now stands, th aro llable to heavy penalties for not destroy. ing the stamps when the barrels are empty. CANNOT TOU QUOK IN BOND, milict of Opinlon Fetween the Revenue Burean and vernor Tillman, WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.—Governor Till Carolina was at the Treasury department today and had an interview with Commissioner Miller of the internal revenue bureau in regard to a question on which | there seems to be a conflict between federa | and state authorities. Under the dispensary | laws of the state of South Carolina distilled spirits in tho custody of the United States in bonded warehouses Who have violated the provisions of the dis- pensary law by selling them within the state are declared to be a nuisance, and, on conviction, the state officers are to seize and confiscate the liquor. In all such cases the governor proposes to tender the tax due to the government and seize the spirits, contending that the federal authori- tios have no right to interfere in the matter, nmissioner Miller took issue with the governor and cited several dec! courts, among them one by the court of the United States, wherein it was held that goods in bonded warchouses were not subject 10 ny process or proceeding ls- suing from a state court and that so long as the government retained control of the goods its jurisdiction and authority were supreme, No final decision, however, was reached and it is probable that, in deference to the wishes of Governor Tillman, the ques- tion will be referred to the attorney gencral for an opini MORE man of South FOR EXPORT. Treasury OMiclals Treated to n Surpriso b Sudden Demand. WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.—United States Treasurer Morgan today received a telegram from Treasurer Jordan at New York stating that $500,000 in gold had been withdrawn from the subtreasury for export. This is the first withdrawal of any {mportance that has been made since August 6 last, and the has had & disquieting effect among | sury officlals. It is not, however, wholly | unequipped. During the first week in Au- gust the gold reserve had been reduced to o little below $52,000,000. At that time the export season had run its course and small gains from day to day at length brought th reserve up to over $60,000,000.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.—Judge Advocate General Lemly of the navy has just returned to Washington from New Orleans, where he completed the purchase of a tract of land adjoining the site for a dry dock at Algiers, opposite the city. The price paid was $47,- 000. The prospect of the establishment of a great dock and naval station at the mouth of the Mississippi river has directed the at- tention of the military authorities to the ad- visability of extending the general scheme of coast defence to that poi it is felt that the absence of modern defenses at the mouth of the great river is a fatal weakness in the general system, as it would afford an enemy the opportunit of cutting the coun- try in two and pa g the internal com- merce of the uni WASHINGTON, gram.)—A pos Ida, Dawes county, Kraut as postmaster.
