I yesterday. Kaip was asked if he had
• not told Or. 1). M. Beatty, of this
that they were going to “get
I (!ore.” He dtnied making such a
-•itatcmfnt He was asked if he had
witnesses to be examined and that
the hearing would probably not be
concluded until midnight.
The murder has caused considerable
excitement nmonf^ the colored popu
lation in and around Dover. Rouse
was a negro had never been known
to molest anyone and was at all times
quiet and peaceable. His home was
not at l>over and no one seems to
know from just what place he came.
He had worked at that place off and
on for two or three years and was
said to be a faithful worker.
At 1 o’clock this morning Roosan-
nah Hunter. Seima Carter, Corrina

Armed Prisoner.
New Orleans, Feb. 13.—Armed with
a pistol Clarence Linden, who a few
minutes before had been sentenced to
serve four years for burglary, today
fought desperately with five officers
in a jail yard here.
Linden said the pistol was
K ?.o, that the case was al! a “frame

When KoLerlson was called to the
witness stand he was asked if he,
J.icob-s and J. F. McMurray had not
met. in McMurray’s room soon fter
the indicedt in Washington and dis-
fus.sed the best method of placing
the affair before tlie public if they
had not planned to prosecute jore,
and failing in that to place the matter
before the ministerial alliance of Ok-
Ihoma.
“Nothing of the kind ever happen
ed,” replied Robert.son.
Counsel for Mr. Gore claitnoil
ground for impeachment of Robert
son was laid in these questions. Ir
reply to questions Roiiertson mid ht
had been paid !>y J.icot-s bui
that Jacobs owed him money and i
had nothing to do with the Gore case
Robertson was asked if Sinit)
Chambers, had not said to him, in the
presence of Fitzpatrick and J2c«b.=
“what is it all about?” and if he di>
not reply "‘we framed it up.” 'I’h«

New Bern, Feb. 13.—Mrs. S. 11.
Watson is dead and Mrs. W. E. Weeks
is in a local hospital suffering from
injuries which are expected to prove
fatal as the result of the explosion
of a can of gasoline at the home of
the two women, 183 Queen street, this
morning.
The two women had arisen :ind
were preparing to start a fire with
which to prepare the morning meal.
A can of gasoline and a can of kero
sene were sitting near the stove and,
thinking that she had the kerosenn
can, Mrs, Weeks turned thisfup and
began to pour the contents into the
stove. She had taken the wrong can
and immediately there was a Hash
and the room was filled with flames.
Mrs. Watson was horribly burned.
Before the blaze could be extinguish
ed both women’s clothing were burned
from their bodies and their Sesb
roasted. Physicians were summoned
and medical aid rendered the suffer-
jrs and Mrs. Weeks was sent to the
'lospital for treatment. Mrs. Watson
lied a short time later.
