RALEIGH, June r 0 (our trunk
lina railroads before a federal court j
with three judges sitting and three
short line roads before the corporation
commission, common carriers were •
“at law ’ in wholesale lote today.
Thu trunk Jine* were appeal fair for j
the fourth time for a federal court]
order slaying the collection of three
quarters of a million dollars in disput- j
ed taxes, due the counties, snd an ad- j
ditiona! quarter-million in franchise
taxes, due the state, pending Anal dis
position of their suit against North
< aro'lna. taxing powers now on the
United Htates supreme court docket.
Tho short line roads were pleading
their poverty and consequent inability
to make enda meet at rates which the
North Carolina Traffic association,
complaintant in the hearing before the
corporation commission, insists would
lie just and in accurdanco with trunk
line tarrtff levels.
Bonds Keep Trying.
Circuit Judge W'uddel! and District
Judges Boyd and Connor had not an- ,
nuuiHcd their decision us to the trunk j
Unas' appeal late this afiernoun. Twice
previously they have refuted to grant {
the same, restraining order for which |
the. third appeal today was mada. Thy ,
United States supreme court ones hss ‘
refused c t<> grant this ord-ir. liut tho
roads believe In trying again.
The state's, attorney (funeral. Judge
Manning, charged the railroads wth
being the biggest tax croakers in North
Carolina, In starring as the atstr'a
spokesman during the hearing In fed
eral court. Judge Manning let'll he
known that he frankly is tired of the
roads dilly-dallying around and trying 1
to carapo paying taxes when they are j
reaping such rich rewards from North
Carolina commerce.
If Individual citixens and tax-payers 1
had the same attitude towards their
Mi igntions to the government as the
railroads the stalu would he forced tu
rluee down its asylums, hospitals, j
schools and institutions of higher learn- ,
ing, Judge Manning charged.-
He answered the railroads' kick of
having to pay mo'io tax in lU2I than
in lU2j!l by declaring that all other
property owners in the state had to do
likewise, and that .both tho roads and
the people would have to continue to
pay more as long us more and better
schools, highways and charitable insti
tutions were demanded of the state.
Called a Spade a Spade,
lie ridiculed this , complaint further
with the declaration that the railroads
paid Etidi.imn less in Drift than they did
In 1818, adding that H wua time they
were paying mure.
Judge Manning called a spade a
spade and spared no words in tailing
the federal judges jjj«t what he thought
of n'l the h gnl terhn.rnlU. vdDi-- rail

hold up tho payment of their obliga

SAN FRANCIftCO, June 10.- Major
Ronald True, whose rvpj-ieva from the

1 ts protest from tho British press yea
I terday, claimed to be Lord Da Frayne
i step-son of Lord Ulea Falloch of Sr it
I land, when he served a Afteen month'*
Federal sentence in the Alameda, Cal,
county jail in 1816 for forging stole*
postal money orders.
British newspaper*, freely Intimated
that True was the eon of one of the
most noted gentle women as the Eng
lleh nobility, but True'* identity hai
been withheld by the British authorl
tie*. He was tried for the murder ol
Gertrude Yates in London three week*
ago and saved from hanging by c*m
mitmvnt to a hospital for the rrimina'.
insane.
Th# facts of hia conviction and sen,.
- tenre la Alameda, across the bay frog-
San Franeiaeo, w*ra brought to ligh
Iby William Madiera, postoffice intpee
tor, who traced True in hU f.igbt fron ‘
the i’nrifir roast to New Orleans, wher*
he was arretted for the theft and for
gery of money orders. Comparison al
photographs of the English felon with
these of True taken here cmopleted the
ideatificatidn.
At the time of his conviction her*
he claimed right to the title of the
honorable Arthur Reginald French
otherwise Lerd de Frcyne of French
I'ark, County Reeecommoti Ireland.
He wee an adventurer and born sol
dier of fortune, according io the of
Acer who trailed him from here to
New Orleans.
“He had been armjp) officer, sheep
I rancher in Africa, aviator in Brasil,
member of the Royal Canadian mount
ed police, and while here in San Fran
cisco tried his hand at prise fighting,"
Madiera sold. “He sought for
[passing a forged SB2 money order, on a
San Francisco hotel."
When he quit San Francisco, Ma
deira said. True left in bis hotel room
1 a belt such as worn by the Royal
[Canadian mounted police, from which
the federaal officer said True had de
serted just beforsw-eoming to Sgn Fran
! cisco. The belt served to identify him
' and aided the federal authorities in
j their rapture of True.
On his discharge after his Aftee*
i months’ sentence he left for Hong Kong
[ early, in 1816, Madeira said, with the
. announced intention of enlisting In the
British army, if the recruiting author
j ities would take him.

ard an attempt probably will be made
'to raiso the question In parliament

tled back again to make rnvdy for n|
irrend try-out among high men in a

The date for the second primary Is I
Saturday, July I. While aa a matter as

and judicial fights and two or three .
sollcitorshlp rfees are expected ta at
tract the greatest attention, local con
tests ia several epunties will likely in |
cite local interact -to fever heat.
Just now the state hoard is calling
in the official returns from th* coun- !
ty board* of election so that It may da '
ride, finally and officially, just who has
been’ nominated over the state and by
hoa) much. Eighty-two counties have
reported to date, and the remaining
eighteen are expected by Monday, In
Which evetat the board will ranvxa# the
returns and announce th* majoritic* in
exact figures.
Ia tha sixth judicial district, Henry!
A. Grady and Gaorgc K. Ward will fare '
tha voters again on July I, they hav
ing emerged as high oca among a group
of six aspirants.
Three or four sollcitorshlp contests
are expected on the face of FFvturns i
from the various contests In Balurday’s '
primary, the most notsl.lv on* probab
ly being in th* Wake-Franklin district !
wher* W. F Evt ns and John Hinsdale, I
both of Raleigh, will battle tor the
nomination. Owing to the nstxing of ■
party factionalism into this fight, it j
I# expected to develop into a cent-si I
of intensity before the first of the
month.
A* many senatorial fights, coming un
der th* M<prevision of the state boasd.
will precede the second primary, while ;
countless county contests are nsceasjiry
after the elimination of lew runners Ifs I
•he county primaries.
The totwt state-wide vote last Batur-
Jay la estimated at around 280,000. It '
• • expected to he coissiderebly less in i
tha second primary. Thirty-sewn
'"unties, which held no local primaries j
vnd which, therefore, voted only In the
.corporation commissionership life, or,
in district fights, will have no votes in .
the second primary The narrowing of
local contests to the two high men
likely will, on th* other hand, bring
not an increased vote ia several coun- '
