JOHN ROBERT BAGGETT
STARTS INVESTIGATION
Receiver Goes to Norfolk To
Ascertain To What Extent
Effected Communities Are
Damaged — Tried To Get
Control of Dunn Plant.
Collapse of tba Cumberland Power
and Light Company was largely re
sponsible for Us* failure of tha Bank
ly 1200,000' of the defunct concerns
■oeuritios and collateral was held by
the bank.
This briny* to lifht the fact that
fanners of this section hove suffered
heavily at the hands of slock sales
men in the last eighteen months.
Much of the stock bought, however,
Is really valuable. Most of it would
have been good, it is thought, had
conditions remained in the abnormal
war period stats. As it is, though,
tho Dank of Coats found itself load
ed with notes given in payment for
securities that it had no chance to
collect.
John Rob Baggett, of l.illinglon,
receiver for the Cumberland Poster
and Light Company, left this week
for Norfolk, where the offices of the
company now are. Ho will attempt to
ascertain to what extent the various
committees affected have suffered.
No examination of the books has
as yet been made by Mr. Baggett, but
local investigation of the company’s
operations In severs I sections of the
State led him to msko tho statement
thnt he was not very hopeful of sav
ing a great deal Com the wrecked
company, which was forcsd into tho
Uar.de of a receiver last Week when
it failed to meet the interest due on
outstanding bonds.
The company had its beginnings in
the But* In February, 1910, when
it was formed with H. L Jones as
president to dig np the disused street
railway laid some yeav* ago in Fay
etteville, and later covered over with
street improvements. At that time it
contemplated an extension of the ex
isting truck to Camp Bragg It* or I
gmai capirai noci was iiuv.vn.
In May of tha present year tha au
thorised capital was swelled to on*
million dollars. Tha company branch
ed out, going into a doxon small
towns and village* in North Carolina,
taking over the local power plant*,
and soeuring franchises far (nWrur
ban railways. An aCort was made to
St control of tha etcctrlct plant, but
a Board of Commissioner* deferred
action ponding investigation of the
stability. Most of the plants. It Is
understood. were taken on lease and
a rental paid foi their use.
Two district* were covered by tha
proposed electric railway lines. The
Aral extended from LUlingtoa, Fu
qua/ Springs, Varina and Holly
Springs The second included Won
dell, Middles#*, Lucama, Kenly, Mi
cro, Tout Oaks, and Pina Urval.
Small plants were taken over In moat
of these towns and opr rated by the
company. In so far as Mr. Baggett
ean determine, this was the extent of
tha actual work done by tha com
pany, except la Fayetteville, where
soma move was mad# toward extend
ing the tracks
• The office* of tha company warn
moved out side at tha State, and an
axtanaiva campaign of stork selling
and bond tailing begun. It La estimat
ed that more than naff a million dol
lars has b#an invested by farmers
and ether* In tha bonds of tha com
pany, and nlong with tho beads, they
received blocks of stock In the cor
poration. Interest was defaulted hr
the bond* last week, and Ltlllngtoo
ettiaens asked far the appointment of
i a roevrvar.

A BIG DIFFERENCE
In Spite of Increased Output
And Decreased Consump

For Costs to Reach Low Lev

Although Dunn cuniomors are still
compelled to pay big prices for cost,
it ha:, just -been discovered by Secre
tary T. L. Riddle of the Chamber of
Commerce that prices here are much
lower than they are in some other
towns of the State. Correspondence
with Burlca Hobgood. secretary of
the Durham Chamber of Commerce,
discloses that Dunn prices are con
siderably lower than they arc in Durr
ham ii. spite of the fnrt that Dur
ham u better situated to get coal di

Western railroad.

been taken out, $10.
Mr. Hobcood quoted no price on
anthracite, but it is stated that In
other localities the figure runs In

when it was railed In Recorder’s

This is the case growing out of
th« arrest of Enoch W. Wilson, a

It is charged that tha policeman was
unnecessarily brutal In kls treatment
of Mr. Wilson against who he had
a warrant charging the carrying of
n concealed weapon.
Subsequent to the arrreet a num
ber of Mr. Wilson’s friends guthered
ia Dunn and mads a threatening de
monstration against the phi iceman
and Insisted that he be dismissed from

sioners.
Following tha demonstration fif
teen men of Dunn wore arrested for
inciting to violence and called to

where it was learned that the court
had no jurisdiction in the matter and
