Nov, 17.—The North C»ro* lint supreme court was much diviiied In arriving at conclusions in the New Hanover county case of King vs. At lantic Coast Line Railway Co., in which a new trial was granted to King In his suit that involves the relief de partment of the Coast Line against which the brotherhoods of employes on other railroads have been lari?cly lined up for some years with bi-enni&l fights before the North Carolina legis latures to break it up. The controling opinion of the court holds that tne department is a lawful organization with rules that may be void under cer tain circumstances. Justice Brown, In a concurring opinion, strongly upholds fhe relief department as purely bene ficial to employees and his position Is concurred in by Justice Walker. On the other hand Chief Justice Walter Clark declares in a special opinion filed by him that the department Is a violation of law, an oppression of the employees of the railroad, a sham and a device whereby the employees are made to pay out of their wages all damages to an employee if injured, the railroad company escaping all liabil ity. All five justices agree on the con clusion that King is entitled to new tri&l ‘hrough error of the trial judge. Twenty Appeals Disposed Of.

SUtesville, N. C.. Nov. 17.-A fire which has been burning for six months is at last thought to be ex tinguished. During the winter months of three years “Uncle” Ab Feimster, driver of the city garbage wagon, hauled trash to a gulley in the hol low to the left of north street, near the intersection of StoA^n street, and last May the huge pile of rubbish was set on fire. The odor of burning trash was not pleasant and when resi dents of the vicinity complained sever al barrels of lime were thrown among the tra&h and in an effort to smother out the fire the big trash pile was covered with dirt. But the fire contin ued to bum and as it ate away the trash the earth would cave in, an4 from the small openings in the earth the smoke rose with its objectionable odor. When it was seen.that the fire cotild not be smothered out a line of hose was run from the nearest hydrant and when an opening had been made gal lons and gallons of water were al lowed to pour in on the smouldering trash. When it appeared that every thing In the vicinity was thoroughly soaked with water, the stream was cut off and more dirt was piled over the trash pile. After a few days smoke was again aeen issuing throuj^ the dirt and rising toward the heavens in the manner of fog, but during the past few days the issue of smoke has de creased until nothing is now visible and it is believed the fire is out.
