The pri^ner smiled and gave no sign other than to shrug his shoulders con tempt umisly. Bitot stared there for a moment without speaking. "What then." said the WtaieVi attorney, lot* tire murderer had reached hi? limit of endurance apparently, lie eol apsed, weeping like a child. In di writhing the fatal rhie lie said Mies ( ? ijig asked him what he was try ing to eoii<-eal at his right lu.r.d. lie re plied that it was a revolver; they', he shot her. "I raised the revolver," said he 'Mime after lime, but I could not do it. Then oii<-i*slie turned aw?>' out. I did not look 1 did not look atVall? I could not look.

I was afraid Harry Hayward would kill my wife? and he would have killed her, if I didn't do it." Then ho threw the liody out. When the revolver wae produced there was another dramatic scene, in which Mr. l'lrwin figured . No one could remove the chambers from the revolver and Harry took it, a watchful deputy stand ing close to him. The cartridges fell out on the floor and Harry cut his linger on the weapon. At once Mr. Met win's dramatic voice came sharp and itistinct, "The defendant hag cut his finger ou this weapon . There is blood, you see. want it noticed that sucfli is the cam*. We want everything open and above hoard. If blood is found on the revolver this must bo noted." The State admitted that there was no blood on the -weapon, and the oane went on . ? Bitot ?4ahned tlmt Hayward had told him of killLng two men, one a Cliina mau, and wounding a third. He also spoko about being hired to fire buildings, but the court put a stop to this line of questioning.

II. Hubbard. Price ??v Co.'s weekly cotton I'tter fays: Tlte rapid d?-pletion of il??* gold balance of the Treasury, through the return of so curiticn from h.urope, baaed up ? n the idea that the I Tnit?*ii States government was going on a silver basis, has prac tically overshadowed any eveuts which have happened to influence the price of cotton, ami the cotton marked for th*? week has been priu'tlcallv e<u>1 rolled by tho varying eo-ndijfons ?whjuh have been' reported regarding t li** Jlnarie'.al situation! of the government. It is no doubt true that tho alarm in lCurope has led to pur ?hasca of cotton here by exporters, who have felt that as cotton wan use I pi in cipally in Kurope, remittances *>f cotton in place of remittances of gold w.yuld pay for the securties which have been returned from Kurope. These purchases have had the effect of advancing this market, and each improvement hus cro ated f rosh alanu on the part of the Bluirt interest and led to baying for that ac count. These purchaser have been tilled by Southern sellers, who have up to the present time held their cotton tenaciously, but now appear to be willing to meet tho market and to sell freely on each advance, The recent Bevero weather In tho Mississippi valley and Texas should have the effect of curtailing the move ment. of the crop in those sections of the country, hut the Atlantic Slates appear now to he willing to dispose of the cot ton which they have held during the en tire scasou with freedom, and the move incut at those ports show no diminution In fact a comparative increase over the previous weeks. The amount of cotton coming in sight each doy is simply over whelming as compared with the move ment of last year and shows a constant increase upon the movement of 1^02. We are now approaching a time when this movement must ftill off or else the crop will exceed the estimate of 9,f?0O, (XX) which has been current for so lon\r a time. We are also nearing the period when the question of acreage should be an important factor in controlling values; but there is as yet no positive indication that the acre-age will be decreased to the extent which merchants have Iwen led to expect! Of course if prices keep low throughout the planting season tho dis position to raise more corn and less cot ton will become marked, but at the pres ent time there is no positive movement towards a sharp decrease in acreage. Uncertainty regarding the financial leg s lat.ion of the country naturally prevent* any material change in values, as most of the transactions are in the nature of liquidation of outstanding interests. It is, however, noticeable, that throughout the country business is improving, and if Congress will follow the advice of Mr. Cleveland, the United States is ready for a season of prosperity su h as it has sel dom witnessed. On the other hand, if no action is taken it goes without saying that a loss of national credit means the same to a nation as the lows of individual I credit to an individual, and that the amount of foreign capital which w-uild be withdrawn from this country in com e quenco of our failure to maintain our ob j ligations on a gold basis, would be that every producer would be in the same position that the producers of Mexico, South America, and India arc today, de pendent upon the tluctua tin< rate of ex change at the value of the products of the farm. So long us this uncertainty continues, it is useless to dis. uss the cot ton question, as no one will enter into fresh engagements until the situation is more clearly defined. In our opinion th>^ laws- iiihjii the statute books of the I'nited States compel the Maintenance of this country upon a gold standard so loug as the President can sell the obligations of the United States at par, and we havo the assurance that I** will carry out these laws. Therefore we do not expo 4 any premium upon gold. ItlSV. ANNA SHAW. Three Tlioanund People Hour Her I'reuelt lu Atlanta. By Southern Associated I'resw. Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 3 ?

The ispoeeh in which he prevented tho projtosition was the principal feature of the day. The bill is, in brief, (hat the Secretary of the Treasury is directed to issue 3 per cent, certiticates of indebted uetM to meet the deficiencies in receipts the gold reserve to be used ouly for the redemption of greenbacks. These re ceipts, he said, might be for two years, or lew. and could be redemed out of the surplus receipts which the Secretary eat 1 mates the Treasury will have thjs year. This will avoid questions, he said, which hinder the passage of the commit tee's bill, antl meet tho present exigency The Republicans, he said, were willing to forego any party advantage that might bo obtained from a continuance of pres ent conditions, and join in the passago of a measure that would relievo the country, but it must be such a measuro as commended itself to their ideas of right and justice and practicability. The bill he offered an a substitute waa or dered to bo printed in The Record. The dc'bato was participated in by Mr. Springer (Dcra.l. of Illinois; and Mr..., Patterson (l)cm.), of Tennessee, in favor of the bill, and by Mr. Walker (ltep.), of Massachusetts; Mr. llall (Detu.), of Mis souri; Mr. Kwansou (Detn.), of Virginia; Mr. Simpson (Pop.), of Kansas; Mr. McKcighan (I'ap.), of Nebraska, aud Mr. Pence (Pop.), of Colorado, against it.

THIS H 10 .VATIC, Tho opening of today's Hewsion in the Senate was uccompnnied by a rather Htonny scene between two members of thai body. An objection which Mr Harris made to a request of Mr. Mitchell (Itcp.), of Oregon, to l>e pJJowed to ad dre*w the Senate in explanation*/^ "ft re purl whioh lie proposed to make, was re sented l?y the Oregon senator, who after some little exoluvnge of <discourte ?ies, indulged in the cutting remark that the Tennessee senator was ?capabie of doing unusual and indiscreet and ungen tlemanly tilings." For this the angry reply was that Mr.... Mitchell's course was "contemptible.' There were some stormy indications after this point, but a timely u eh of the gavel by the Vice President prevented gBT further explosion of anger on eitner side ? and business was proceeded with. The district of Columbia appropriation bills and other matters occupied the re inainder of the day's session, the biil being parsed before adjournment. At one j)oint the financial question broke ou in the shape of an amendment offered by Mr. McLaurin (Dem.), of Miaalssippi looking to the coinage of the silver bullion in the Treasury to the amcunt of the seigniorage ($55,000,000). The amend ment to which it was offered was de dared by a vole of tile Senate to be ou of order, and Mr. McLatff-in'* amend ? uient fell with it. After the District ap propria t ion bill was passed the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill was taken np, not, however, displacing the bank ruptcy biil as the unfinished business, ai\d tho Senate at 4:40, after a short ex .eoutive session, adjourned. WasMngton, Fert>. 5.? Tho Senate this afternoon in executive session reconsldao ered the Japanese treaty, and made the change in its text to which attention was called some days ago by the State Department . tl The treaty as. amended in the Senate provided that it should be within the power of either of the contracting par* ties to abrogate it after twelve months' notice. <> Inasmuch as tho treaty does not go Into effect until four yeans from now. in 18SJD, this would put it in. the po<wer uf the United States to abrogate the contention before it went into operation, a condition which the Japanese minister represented would be manifestly unfair to the Government of Japan. He urged that the treaty be reconsidered and the amendment changed so that it <x>utd be abrogated twelve montha after the Mine bad been iu operation. The Secretary of State called the at tention of the senators to this in a letter addressed to each senator per sonally, and^tnere being no opposition to it, the change waa made today -without formality of a vote upon a statement of the case by tb4 chairman' of the Ootn mittee.on Foreign Relations. Hie State Department, it is understood, hasre celvod the assurances of, the JaptnlMl minister that the treaty as amended in this -way would be sath*f actory, and there appears to be no reason why it may not become operative in 4m course of time, ?Nthout unnecessary delay.
