* - ?? LY? MASCH 16, ?92. First Cleveland Gun. PROVIDENCE. R I., March 2.-The Democrats of Rhode Island met in this city this morning for the nomina? tion of S tate officers to bevoted for at the election occurring the first Wednesday in April, and also for the aet?&on of delegates to the National confution. The outcome of tue towj? atti city caucuses promised a warm fight between the two factions, cn?&voring the~choice of a delega? tion instructed for Cleveland and the other preferring the selection of a delegation to go unpledged Thos C. Gorman, was elected temporary chairman. His speech eulogized the administration of Cleveland and de? clared that hie name would be burnt into the hearts of the. people like those of Jefferson, Jackson and Lin? coln*. /These sentiments were greet 4*d with loud applause and a few hisses. - -. - A resolution was presented by S. B. Jlovey and referred to . .e Flat? form committee, instructing the dele? gates to the National convention to ?ute for Cleveland, lt was received with applause: The platform report? ed. to tue. convention demanda free: raw materials. It approves the Springer wool bills and urges its car? ty ?passage lt also favors the plac? ing of iron, voa! and timber on the free list. Upon the coinage question it reads :. "Every dollar of American money, -whether of g?>?d, silver or paper, ought to he of equal value the world over*/'; The repealing-of the Sherman coinage act is favored he cause of its failure to accomplish the result desired, and for like reason the free coinage of silver is opposed, ex? cept upon international j agreement. The platform closes with Mr. Hovey's resolution of instruction. - The platform as framed by the com? mittee was unanimously adopted without discussion together with the resolution instructing the National delegates to vote for Cleveland. For two hours the convention labored in the detection of delegates to Chicago, the greater part of the time being gp^wfrigSI goptest over Mr. Hovey, of #ew?o?# nl&fight was bitter and turbulent. The opposition, led by Juo. A?. Brennon, of this city, put in .counter nomination Nathan B .Church, of Riverton. Ilovey was elected 4i delegate by ? substantial majority. The entire delegation ?6 jolid for Cleveland. A Wonderful Man. GreenniJe News. Prof. Wiuston ; Smith, a traveling agent of the Semi-Weekly News, is one oft^fi?ostvwouderful men of tlie -ngfc.JM? Ssaith is a brother of Cap? tain "Tip Top'? Smith. He was boru at Brewerton, Laurens county, 24 years' ago. At the. age of four jean both his.arms were cat off in a -cotton gin. The left arm was cut off near the shoulder. The right one svas cat off an inch and a-half below elbow. Despite that he has nothing but part of one arm, he makes 'his mxy through the world as easily ;*u> those who. lia ve all their limbs. P rofessor Smith is a fine penman, and ?bas taught writing in different places. ' He/4?d - a large school in Augusta. His writing w beautiful, fle can keep bool? as easily as many of the best bookkeepers, but does not like an in? door life, and prefers traveling. Ile cnn plow, kill a bird flying, bait a fish book and catch fish, thread a needle and sew on a button. In fact there are lew things anybody else can do that lie cafi*t do. He ba? no artificial means of doing all toe things which are so< wonderful and has nothing but a -pian leather strap tied around the stamp of his arm; lie can knock a ana? down in pugilistic style and in ?ii?: travels for The News drives a <bre?2year old pony. He dresses and ?adresses himself and asks no help from anybody.. Yesterday while on the street he was approached by a man who offered to play "hard knuckle^rwith him. Ile accepted bot ?rar?ed ?lie man that he would akin his knuckles. The ma., persisted ami the result j was that Professor Smith badly skinned the knuckles of] bis opponent. The man did not care to play any longer. ^ofessor- Smith has been given Hbeta?^fRfr?-to go in dime museums tn the North, but prefers to stay in tlier ???udi and earn* his living by work. tli; Senators in Clover. WASDJXGTON. March 7 -Opposite the 8eofcte wing of the- Capitol is a large building called the Maltby, wbioh was formerly ?oed a* a hotel, bot which was purchased by the government about eight mon'h? ?go for,$160.000,in order to give the Seoate additional room for i-K committee? ; The building contains about I25?or -130 moms. A few days ?go General Catchings, 8 member of the House Committee on Holes, went to Senator Aldi ich. chair mac of the cont uti t tee in the 3euate hav ing charge of the rooms at the disposal of that body, and asked him to set apart in the Mah by House one or two rooms for the u?e of the House committee on Unies, Senator Ardrich ?aid it was impossible to. accommodate the House ia that matter, as the rooms in the Maltby building were all occupied This appeared to be very strange. .Investigation revealed the fact that each of the eighty-eight Senators in the S -nate bad been provided with a private room io the new building in addition to tba regalar committee rooms, which were at the disposal of the Senators. This is an entirely new wrinkle in Senatorial luxury. Magnificent state funerals at the cost of tboosands of dol? lars, tboasand-do?ar rugs, two hundred dollar chairs. Appollinaris water and trifles of that kind have heretofore been as far as this millionaires* club bas gone at-Ooele Sam's expense. Now it seems that the government has paid ?100.000 for a building for the purpose of provid? ing each Senator with a private room. Etch Senator already have a private derk. __ It ia said that there aro twenty well built towns in Kansas without a ?itt^b? i tili ubi taut to waken the echoes o?' ?heir deserted streets. Saratoga he* 4 $30,000 .opera house, a large brick hotel, a $20,000 school house abd a number of fine boniness houses, yet there is nobody to claim a place io sleep. The Counting of a Quorum. WASHINGTON, March 1.-Mr. Catch? ings of Mississippi, a member of the committee oo rales, was asked this mor? ling rF?b?'decision of tbe Supreme Court io the wooloo classification act case aod its bearings oo the question of a quorum in th? House would affect the decision of she Speaker or the attitude of the Democratic party oo this ques? tion. . He said; "Not io the least. The decision of the Supreme Court, from a legal standpoint, is not compara? ble to the arguments made io the House by Reid, McKioley, Barrow?, Dalzell, Doli var, Lodge aod other law? yers. The court has not touched upon the question of the abase of Mr. Reed io counting absent members as present. Theo take the House journal as evi I dence of a quorum. Members were io the cloak rooms, at their hotels, not actually present io their seats, who were counted to make np a qaoram. The demand for the yeas aod nays by one-fifth of the members present io the House is a proper ooe, aod even were it not a hot constitutional provision, this rale should be enforced by the House itself. It is a safeguard for the proper conduct of -public business Maoy measures are passed without di? visions which are defeated upoo a yea aod oay vote, members being afraid to have the glare of public opinion turned upon them. The Supreme Court decis? ion, therefore, will oot io aoy way alter the action of the Speaker or the Demo? cratic party io the House, so far aa affects their interpretation of parliamen? tary law." i ???.?? mm It will be news to many of our readers, even a number of those around town, to learn that in our su? burbs is a truck farm of twenty-six acres well antler way. Our fellow townsman, Mr. Araon Weinberg, having tired of the present unprofita? bleness of the mercantile and Hen business, and being of a progressive and enterprising nature, concluded to curtail his business and give his attention to truck fanning. Mr Weinberg has twenty-six acres of I nicely prepared land, upon a part of which lie has already growing vegeta? bles. Ile has about three acres of | onions standing four or five inches high and over two acres of ground, green with early garden peas, lias p anted seventeen barrels of Irish potatoes, has four or five large hot beds in which he grows plants that cannot yet be exposed to the weath? er, in one of which he has t omatoes already growing. Mr. Weinberg will plant largely of such vegetables ais are marketable. Mr. Wilson, who has management of the farm, appears to be an old band at the busi ness-and understands it tl.wronghly. That is the first farm of Hie kind for Clarendon and we predict it will be a profitable one for Mr. Weinberg. Clarendon Enterprise. A Novel way to End a Strike. IsWAKApows. IND , March 1.-The street railway strike was practically set? tled at midnight, wheo Judge Taylor, of the Superior Court, appointed as receiver of the road, Thos. Seele, rbe assistant superintendent who was re? cently disowned by Presideot Frenze!. The pe tit i for 8 receiver was filed by W. P. Fisbback. who sets forth that be in a citizen of the city of Indianapolis ; that the Citizens' Comp&uy occupies the streets by reason of a francois grao ted twenty-eight years ago; that tili recent? ly it performed its duty as a common carrier, and did so no til Mr Frenze! was elected president; that he had no experience io saeh business and that he is wholly unfit for his position aod was only appointed because it was thought he would get a renewal of the franchise. It then recites ?he causes of the strike aod the decidion of che directors to stand by Freuzol io the strike, and says that the continuance of the strike will result io bloodshed and the destruction of the property ; that the directors are unfit to operate the company, aod as the re? sult the people are deprived of their means of transit. Receiver Teele im? mediately gave hoods io the sam of $100.000. Ben Terrell, L L. Polk aod C. W. Macune have laoded squarely into the third party inovment. But Congressman Livingston, who is president of the Georgia State Alliance, made a Fpeech at Covington after his return from St Louis, io which be vigorously de? nounced the third party movmeot, aod said that "the best ?hing for the Allianee is to stay in the old party aod fight and conquer under the old fl*g."

We do not koow whether any bank official has ever been convicted of a {crime ander the law prohibiting and punishing misapplication of funds by bank officials; bat the charge of Jud g ? Nelson, of the Federal District Court, delivered to the grand jury engaged io considering the ev, den ce of the Maverick Bank officials, accused of misappropria? ting the funds of that institution, clearly shows thal; DO legal convictions j could have been secured under the Na? tional Bink law, aod that its alleged protective features are utterly uosub- j stantial and ioadequate. Io order, ruled Judge Nelson, to make out, under the Natiooal Bank law, a fraudulent misapplication of funds, the Government must go a "great deal farther than to prove that one of the members of the board has borrowed mooey of the bank aod is unable to pay it, or even at the time the mooey was borrowed he was uoable to pay it n The Government is bouod to prove that the mooey was taken with no intent to pay it back. A bank official may be insolvent aod with? out any rational hope of pecuniary im? provement at the time of using the mooey of the institution, but if bis io ' tent ion is to return it, be can o ot be charged with embezzlement. Io other words, the* law allows bank officials to invest the money deposited in the institu? tion io speculative op?rations, provided they ioteod to retiro it some day aod somehow. Such a law is manifestly worse tbao useless. How cao the Gov? eromeot prove bad intentions, or the absence of good in len ti ons? Yet many good people have firmly believed that the law was absolutely oecessary.-To Day. The oew coins (dimes, quarters, aod halve?) recently issued are said by bankers to be a nuisance, as they are thicker aod harder to haodle than the old CO?D8. The funeral expenses of the late Con? gressman Honk, of Tennessee, amount? ed to $1,997 98 The government pays the bili, but there must have been something rotren about this funeral.
