[Charlotte Observer.]
Philadelphia, July 18.-A Wash.
ington special to The Record says:
"The Commissioner of Internal Rov
onue is oxpected to decide that the
State of South Carolina is wrong in
its contention against the right of
the Federal governmont to tax South
Carolina State liquor lisponsaries.
Commissioner Yorkos will hold, it
is understood, after roveral confor
oncos with Attorney General Knox,
that South Carolina has no power
under the coustitution to exempt
dispensaries from tho operation of
the Federal internal revenue law.
If South Carolina could thus secure
immunity from Federal taxation,
other States could do the same, with
serious results'to the Federal exercise
system. Governor McSwooney, of
South Carolina, has not only de
manded from the Internal Revenue
Bureau a return of all the taxes col
lected from the State dispensary
traffic since .1893, but has sued for
the same purpose in the United
States Court of Claims. Both pro
ceodings wore taken under the Su
promo Court decision that the South
Carolina dispensary law was a con
stitutional exercise of the police
power of the State.
The Court of Claims having ad
journed for the summer, the case
will have to await there, but meanu
while the administration, through
the Commissioner of Internal Reve
nue, wiil decide against South Caro.

No Mnteriai Change In the Situation Re.
ported Yeterday-Conference of
Labar Leaders Today.
Pittsburg, July 19,--While Wells
ville, Ohio, was the pivot point around
which interest in the great strike was
*entered yesterday, two more points
are on the map now to which those
interested in the strike are looking.
Those points are Vandergrift., Pa.,
and Duncansville, Pa.
At Wellsville the situation is prac
tically unchanged, or if there is any
change it is in favor of the milli go
ing into full operation.
Manager Smith claims to have
forty men at work and :iays he wvill
have a complete force by Monday.
Arrangements are being made for
a monster labor meeting at Whit's
opera house tonight. Arrangements
have been made for a special train
to bring workers up from Mononga
hola valley as far as Monessen.
Leaders of the Amalgamated Asso
ciation will make addresses and ex
plain the strike situation.
CoNFERlENCE PLANNED.
Pittsburg, July 10.-- It is reported
that a conference of the mo'st promi
nont labor leaders in the country will
be held here today or tomorrow to
devise.plans to checkmate the trust
from starting any mills next Monday.
COLLIERY OPERATINo.
Pittsburg, July 19.-Operators of

thie Action of the Itoard.
[Cola. Cor. News and Courier.)
The members of the State boari
of directors of the dispensary having
grt oft the Charleston city share o~
profits from the liquor business have
folded their tents and journeyed
homoward. None of thoml has had
anything furtier to say about the
matter than was expressed in the
resolutions adopted yesterday and
published this morning. Exactly
what is expected of the municipal
authorities of Charleston does not
appear very clearly; it seems that
they have to enforce the dispensary
law in Charleston to the satisfaction
of the members of the board before
that body will lot the profits return
to the city. What is necessary to
satisfy the board ' one of the prob
lems that will have to work itself out.
Many wore surprised at the action
taken; yet there wore others who
wore in no wise surprised.
It seems that the double forco of
constables is to he kept in Charles
ton for some time, but for how long
it is not known. It may be that
tho squads will h continually chang
ed and new men sent in every week
for a time, and it may be that
special detectives will be sent down
there. The authorities som to be
determined to see it the illicit sale
of liquor, alleged to be going on, can
not be brokon up, and it looks as if
those in the business are to be given
considorable trouble.
TME srATIM HAS TO hORROW MONEY
The Unusanl loinvy ApprcilatIons the
Caue--Fundla Will Uoine EaInrly In
the Fall Uoverlng the Amount
Now Neec.
[The State, 10th.]
The State of South Carolina, it
appears, is going to find itself com
polled to borrow money this year to
meet the running expenses of the
government. There is nothing un
usual about it, as it has often been
done before. The tax levy will raise
all the funds necessary, but they
cannot be collected in timo to tide
over the period betwoon the middle
of August and the fall when the
taxes begin to Ilow in. The neces
sity for borrowing comes from th i
fact that the appropriations this year
have been unusually large, aggre
gating over a million dollars, and
heavy calls upon the treasury have
been made from most of them.
Among the large extra items in
the appropriation bill this year may
be named the costly new State col
logo buildings here and elsewhere,
the $50,000 for the Charleston ex
position, and the $15,000 that has
to be paid into the sinking fund on
the loan for the completion of the
State house.
All obligations could be met eas
ily later on, but unfortunately no
account of time has been taken in
the makiig up of the appropriation
bill.
At present the State has enough
money in sight to run the machinery
of the government until the middle
of next month, but beyond that time
money will be0 needed from some
other than the regular source. It
was stated yesterday that arrange
ments are now being made fur the
borrowig of not less than $100,000
at 4k per cent. This, it is thought,
wvill carry things along until the
regular tax collections begin to net
results in the fall.
The officials are not worried over
the necessity for borrowing, yet the
necessity for it is regretted.
Tolstol'a Life Is HIanging by a Thrend.
Moscow, July 10. - Dr. Savin,
Count Tolstoi's physician, announced
this morning that his patient had
had a relapse during the night.
Hopes that the author will recover
are fading.
The count was recently excommu.
niented from the Russian charch for
his principles. This affair created
quite a sensation in Russia, and a
large number of students and others
begged that they also be excommu
nicated. Student riots in Moscow
and St. Petersburg followed the ex
communication of TIolstoi.
Soon after this it was reported that
he hind been carried to the frontier
and ordered to remain away from
Russia. This exile was, however,
Idenied, and Tolstoi is still in Russia.
U.-is very advanced in years and
hopes for his recovery are slim.

A special to the Now York Sun
from Niagara Falls, .Juily 14th, says:
It is oloven years sinco anybody
went through tho whirlpool rapids
of Niagara in a barrel, and as it was
this style of craft to first successfully
bravo the rapids after Captain Webb
lost his life, unusual interest centored
in the trip which Charlos 1). Grabam
announced that. h would make to
day. Graham was the first to do
what was thought to be practically
impossible, to go through the rapids
and livo to toll the story. Ie ro
peated thu trip throo times, and to
day he mado his fifth successful voy
ago through the gorge.
The people turned out in great
numbers tcday to see Graham make
his fifth trip. They flocked to the
bridges, they lined the cliff tops and
they filled the trolly cars of the Cana
dian Scenic line. The day was
frightfully hot but yet thousands
stood the intense heat for hours, un
til Graham and his barrel had gone
down the rapids. Never before have
so many countries been represented
in the gathored crowd. This is be
cause the Pan-American exposition
contributed its quota to the sightsee
ing number.
Graham had announced that he
would start at three o'clock, and the
big majority were on hand at that
hour. -is starting point was from
the old Maid of the Mint landing, a
few hundred foot above the cantiever
and tower steel arch bridges.
It was from this point that Gra
ham started on his previous trips,
and although the old dock had boon
torn away ho chose to start from
there today. It was 3:25 o'clock
when he crowded himself through
the manhole into his barrel. A small
row boat was in waiting, and at 3:30
the barrel with its human freight,
was being towed out into the river.
The oresmen wore fearful of being
tucked into the rapids and they
swung the barrel adrift very early.
This resulted in Graham having an
awful experience and one which he
will long remember. Instead of be
ing immediately caught by the cur
rent that would carry him into the
rapids, his barrel swung into an eddy
on the New York side, just about the
cantilever bridge. Round and round
in this eddy the barrel swung. Once
or twice the poople on the bridge
thought they saw Graham trying to
find out where we was. For 241 min
utes the barrel wvas held in the eddy,
when at the longest it should not
have been more than 15 minutes in
going from the starting point to the
wvhirlpool and not so long in making
the trip through the gorge to Lewis
ton. It was therefore a relief to the
crowd when at 3:57 o'clock the bar
rel swung full into the current and a
minute later wvas riding the first wave
of the rapids.
The course taken by the barrel
was along tile Now York side of the
cr-e'ted wvaves in the center, while on
previous trips the barrel had clung
to the Canadian cui-rents. Frequent
ly the barrel sank out of sight and
once or twice it wvas apparently a
long time in returning to theosurface.
But seond1s woro hours in the esti
mation of the excited peepie for the
fact is it took Graham only three
minutes to reach the wvhirlpool. In
approaching the pool the barrel
swung into the Canadian current,
but once in the river p)ocket it fol
lowed the current straight across the
center. The current shot it well to
ward the shore, where fully 100 por,
sons were gathieredl to hlelp rescue
the barrel and its occupant. Many
had expected that Graham would be
forced to go round the pool1 many
times, but he escapied this fate.
Before the b)arrel had boen caught
by the whirlpool strong men swam
ont and dragged it to shore. Wh1en
the cover of the manhole was raised
it was found that Graham was in a
partiallf suffocated conidition, owing
to the intense boat and close confine
ment. A little attention served tc
revive him, and he was aided to the
top of the bank and driven in a tally
h1o to this city. In an intorv")w with
a Sun correspondent ( raliam naid:
"Whben I started oil the trip today
I wis not in ats good condition as I.
Was on my trips of yearn ago. You

weight is 190 pounds. My barro
weighs only 160 poUnlH. Whilo I
should haie been out of the barrel in
Iifteen minutes, I was in it nearly an
hour, for it was after -1 o'cl "ek that I
heard voices at tho whirl pool. I have
a small povp hole inl the b arrol, which
I usually close, but when I passed
tho cantilever briidgo today I was so
nearly suffocated that I had to leave
this o1)1, tihe re:ult being that I
took in about six rehte of waler.
WVhilo I (o not stato it positively, I

"Thoso are the things that beget.
dietrust and disrespect for the courts
and for verdicts, and for our boasto I
forms of law. These are the thing
that produce anarchy, lynching andl(]
invite a just contempt, as well as a
lack of confidence, in those tribunals
called of justico.
"Some place the blamoi upon the
sceptical and free thinking spirit of
the times; some censure the courts
for the careless, flippant, meaning
less and indifferent manner that
oaths are permitted to be adminis
tored; others severely censure the
county attorneys and grand juries
for their indifference or apparent
incapacity to offectually and prop
erly indict and prosecute those guilty
of the crime.
"Blame is also laid at the door of
a class of attorneys who advise

ble number say this because of the
lack of fear of prosecution and cor
tain temporal punishment for the
crime.
"It is doubtless true that all these,
and perhaps other causes, combine
in creating the evil complained of.
The grasping and commercializing
spirit of the ago, where every man's
standard seems to be measured by
the amount of money he has accumu.
lated, might well be added to the
catalogue.
"Who can blame a poor outcast of
society for false swearing, when pro

Lincoln, Nob., July 18.-In a
statement for the press today Wmn.
J. Bryan gives his version of the
story that Agninaldo promised him
financial assistance in his campaign
of a year ago. Mr. Bryan says it
wvas while he was in New York that
two Filipinos sent a request to con
fer with him, lie deelinied to meet
them and sent a friend to explain
that he did not think it proper to
hold a conferenco. The Filipinos
said that Aguinaldo was willing to
issue a proclamation premising to
lay clown arms, in case of Mr. Bry
an's election, and also was willing to
contribute to the Doemocratic cam
paign fund, but Mr. Bryan refused
to consider either proposition and
'did not require them to furnish any
evidence of their right to represent
Aguina~ldo.
