"Washington, .Tunc 29. When the
house gets another suspension day,
for the passage of bill-5, the senate
bills to provide for the construction of
public buildings at Portland, Oregon,
and at Stockton, Cala , will probably
be placed on their passage.
3ilLs granting the state of California
live per cent of the net proceeds of
the cash sales of public lands in the
state; providing for a government
wharf at Astoria, Oregon; and making
an appropriation for a light house off
Cape Hancock, Wash., have good
places ou the committee of the whole
calendar, and may be disposed of at
any time.
Even if the senate succeeds in its
opposition to the bounty on silk raised
in California, as foreshadowed by the
action of the finance committer fruit
growers can find consolation u the
fact, that there will b3 no marked at
tempt made to prevent an increase of
duty on fruit prodnct, as provided for
in the house tariff bill, and retained
by the senate committee.
Republican members of both com
mittees favored increise, and will
resist any important paifc of the mem
bers of their own party, if any is
made, fo prevent tho fruit cultures
from remaining in the bill, at once.
There is threatened to be a decided
stand taken b some Republic ins in
the iiouss, against the increase or
duties on oranges, but nothing
was developed when the bill
was being debated, although
Mr. flower, a New York Democrat,
who owns an orange grove in Florida,
prolcslei against the fruit section, ou
the grounds that poor people would
k' obliged to pay more than double
for their fruit if the increased duty
was enacted.

A RACE CONFLICT.
Blaody Eaccmater Between
Whites mad. Blacks.
Special to The AstokiasJ
Amite, La June 29. George How
ard, a desperate negro, was shot yes
terday mornnut just above town, by
disguised men, and came into town for
medical attendance. Soon after, there
was a simultaneous charge into town,
from every road, of armed men on
horseback, numbering about 200.
Howard was found in Tom SewalTs
garden. He refused to surrender and
was killed. Two of the horses of the
party, were wounded by shots from
tho garden, and two other neeroes.
Jake Bansom and Ted Flanders, were
wounded.
At the same time, Dag Tjfllw was
found, and he, with the two other
bad negroes, gere taken to the out
skirts of the corporation, whipped and
ordered to leave. Armed squads were
then sent out and captured the arms
of suspicious colored people, consisting
of eighteen or twenty double bar
relled guns, two Winchester rifles,
and a number of pistols. The armed
crowd then dispersed.
The cause of the trouble between
the whites and negroes yesterday was
the firing by negroes, several days ago,
upon a committee of white men who
had been commissioned to interview
several white men, who were charged
with living on terms of social oqual
ity, with colored people of this
parish. By the advice of those
men, the negroes were influenced to
strike for unreasonably high wages.
Alarming reports had been in circula
tion for some time, that misled the
colored people to hold frequent night
meetings, and they were procuring
arms and ammunition from many
quarters, to use against the whites in
a race conflict they contemplated
bringing out
Kecent events established the fact
that they were not groundless, and
the white people prepared themselves
on a war footing. Repeated threats
on the part of the negroes against
whites, the firing upon the committee,
and cruel beating of a white child by a
negro a few weeks ago so incensed the
whites that they conoluded they would
bear it no longer, but would meet the
issue as they did yesterday. Every
thing is quiet now.
SIR. PHILLIPS' OPINION.
Of Dclamatcr's Nomination.
Special to Thr Astokiax .1
New Yobs, June 29. A special to
the lYbrfcZfrom Newcastle, Pa., sas
Thomas W. Phillips of this city, a
millionaire oil producer, who was
generally talked of as a candidate for
the Republican nominee for governor,
but who refused to permit the use of
his name, to-day declared positively
against senator Delamater, the nomi
nee of the Harrisburg convention.
Mr. Phillips favors an Independent
nominee : "I am not pleased with the
nomination of Delamater," said Mr.
Phillips. "Such an exalted position
as that of governor of a great state
like ours should be unsought, or in
other words, the position should seek
the man."
Mr. Phillips says further that ho
objects to Delamater's nomination as
being a supporter of the monopoly
interests of the state, and on account
of his being backed by the Pennsyl
vania railroad company, and the Stand
ard oil company. Accusations made
against him in connection with the
Billingslie bill, Mr. Phillips says, have
never been answered nor refuted and
will weaken his support through the
oil districts. He is not the man upon
whom all can unite.

The amount permitted for the pres
ent census is in excess of that re
quired for the last census, in spite of
restriction upon publication. The
last census cost $5,682,750, aad tart
included all expenses connected with
the work, so that' if the maxiumatua
provided for should be spent in addi
tion to the cost of printing, engrariag
and binding, the eleventh census wfll
be considerably more expensive than
the tenth. The population of the
United. States will probably be found
to be 65,000,000, an increase of abort
15,000,000 over 1880.
