Burner and her three little children in their mountain home five; miles from here some time on Saturday night, today returned a- verdict that ; they came to their death at the hnads; !' of .William Nichols. The body of Nich-: I ola was found this morning in" the home l. of "Wesley Price, where "he' had blown his head off with a shot gun. It developed at the inquest that when- j Mr. 'Burner left his home on Saturday; evening Nichols remained- at the Bur ner home to look after the stock. What' "happened after, that .and before the; . murders never will be known. Nichols, it is said, had been paying unwelcome attention to Mrs. Burner, and jealousy over tlier return of tho husband, recently released from the State, convict force, is assigned as the jause. ', Gruesome details were given at the inquest. Hamilton, 5 years old, the old- sst child, had been '.struck with an axe J the blade penetrating the brain, two fingers were cut off and the body mu " tilated. Walter, 4 years old, was pull ed from the bed and his face split open from ear to ear, and one of his hands is missing. The year-old baby found in its mother's arms, had. been killed by a blow on the head. Deep gashes cov ?r the entire body of Mrs. Burner.

After the murder, Nichols went to the home yf Price, who was away on a visit, f orc ?d his way in With an axe, found Price's shot gun, and blew his brains out. PROHIBIT EXPORTS OF WAR MATERIALS Continued From Page One and that England be not . allowed to prevent us from sending articles that are of no direct use in war to Italy, Holland, Denmark, Norway and Swe- ' den and Switzerland, or any other country that desires to buy our goods." Resolutions presented by the German-American Alliance delegation in cluded a letter written by Mr. Hexamer to President Wilson, dated December 9th, "in the interest of neutrality,"says ing that one of the nations engaged in the war "could not get munitions from this country." "Our failure ,in keeping strict neu trality becomes thereby," the letter (-.ontinjued, "an unfriendly if not inimi cal act against one particular nation. "You cannot imagine, Mr. President," he wrote, "with what chagrin. and bit-' m terness it fills the Americans of German descent to see the resources of this IHTeat country which they have helped to build up, piaced at the disposal of enemies, who with their overwhelming forces, have proclaimed it their avow ed . purpose to crush our ancestral homes. "Since the attitude of our govern ' ment enables England to- cut off, against our own interests, even the most necessary supplies from the civil population of certain countries, do you not think, Mr.-President, that thereby . the assertions that the neutrality of the United States is only a matter of ' form, and does not exist, are justified?" BRITAIN'S REPLY OF MOST FRIENDLY TONE (Continued From Page One.) hardships of detentions and extended search: "The Department of State is advised jthat the Treasury Department has au thorized the collector of customs at Sa- vannah, Ga., to have vessels bound to .foreign ports loaded under the super- . vision or inspection of customs . ofll- i cials, upon application in writing by the owners or agents of the vessels, or . the exporters and to give an appropri ate certificate of cargo as shown on the-1 manifests. The customs officials, how- fever,, will not attempt to determine or certify whether any part of the. cargo is or is not contraband of Avar. "Doubtless the same authority will .be extended by the Treasury Depart ment to the customs officials at all our . ports wherever desired. Complaints have been made that in some Instances . the ship's manifest does not contain all the cargo aboard and this action of the Treasury Department is no doubt 1 in response to these complaints." Justification for detention of neutral vessels clearing from American ports ' is claimed by the British because coh- " traband has been concealed in some cotton cargoes. It also is alleged that manifests when produced have not dis- closed the whole of the cargoes. The British claini that the size of modern vessels prevents a thorough search on the high seas, necessitating the taking of the ships to a British port to be partially or wholly unloaded. Long delays sometimes resulting was k one of the points which the State De Apartment complained to the British government. British authorities early In the war -declared - frequent and thorough j searches were made necessary by the action of the American Treasury De partment in suspending the practice -of making public manifests of depart t Ing ships. Treasury Department offi : cials were quoted as placing the re sponsibility for this suspension upon exporters who were loath tot have . their export secrets inade known to ri vals through the publication of their manifests. , SCOTT AND VILLA WILL CONFER ON THE BRIDGfe ;.

He said this in many cases was the result of lack of ; cruisers' and "gunboats. ' Aomng other data?. just-added to the report of the. hearing .is-. a. statement of naval expenditures for the current fiscal year, showing that while the United States appropriation $141,872, 780, Great Britain appropriated 3260, 000,000, Germany (April to March ?114,-Ofid,aoo;-France (January to December) $124,000,000; Russia (January to De cember), $129,000,000; Japan (April to March), $69,000,000; Italy ( July 1 to Juno ,30), $57,000,000. Total appropria tions' on account of the navy in this country from 1794 to 1914 inclusive were shown to aggregate $3,071,179,959. Representative Gardner submitted to the military committee a series of let ters exchanged by himself and Secre tary Garrison in the past two or three weeks'. Mr. Garrison, replj'ing to a question as to how muc hthe 14-inch guns of foreign navies outranged the 12-inch- gnns of this country's coast defenses wrote that foreign guns carry at their maximum standard carriage carry while "our 12-inch guns on their standard carriage carry 13,000 yards, but could be mounted so as to carry a similar distance to the1 foreign guns.

'Mr. Garrison said there were no 14 inch guns now in the coast defense of the United States proper but that four such guns- were being constructed for installation on the Pacific coast. He said that there were no guns of a larg er size except t?ie 16-inch gun des tined for the Panama Canal. We ex plained that there were two 14-inch guns already mounted in the Panama canal fortification andeight more being mounted. "There are now in our possession," the Secretary added, "624 modern field guns and howitzers, 226 additional ones appropriated for and under manufac ture, a total 860. We have on hand or under manufacture 510,000 rounds of ammunition for these guns and how itzers. Chairman Hay remarked to Mr. Gard ner during the hearing today that the British army reserve when the' Euro pean war broke out "didn't amount to a row of pins" and that it was im practicable to get a reserve except in countrie4where there is a conipulsory service. "As a matter oY history," added Mr." Hay. "both the federal and "Confed erate governments had to resort to con scription." A. & M.

Postponement of International Event is Sugrgfested at Conference Between Col. Goethals and Secretary Garrison. Washington. Jan. 4. The possibility of a postponement of the cruise of the international fleet from Hampton Roads to San Francisco .through the Panama canal in connection with the formal opening of the canal and the exposition was suggested today during a conference between Secretary Gar rison and Colonel Goethals, .governor of the Canal Zone. - Though the great earth slides at Cu curacha apparently have been con quered, the earth movements continue in the neighborhood of Gold Hill, At that point the super incumbent masses of earth on the side ,of the canal, by their great pressure, are contiguously forcing rock and soil in great quanti ties in the canal prism. . The movement is sufficiently exten sive to require the continuous employ ment of dredges to maintain the chan nel. . While this can be done to meet the needs of .the present number and size of vessels that are applying for pas sage, Colonel Goethals reported that he could not guarantee that there would be a channel road enuogh and deep enough for the. great . dread noughts which will make up the naval -parade by the date they are ' expected to arrive at Cristbbol next spring. The mastery, of the earth movements at Gold Hill is considered only a ques tion of time, when the earth must find its equilibrium. Colonel Goethals, howeverfl is unable to promise that this period of stability will be attained by the time the naval fleet is scheduled to reach the canal. As the programme of the fleet from the time it gathers at Hampton Roads to it , sarrival at San Francisco is pre scribed by law, the officials are now considering whether it will be neces sary to secure special legislation in ease it is decided to abandon or post pone the crlse because of conditions in the panal.

President Ba ker of the Philadelphia Nationals, to night confirmed the announcement by Manager McGraw of the deal by which Hans Lobert goes to the Giants 4n ex change for three players and a cash consideration. Baker added that Man ager Mohan, of the Phillies, had select ed the three players from a list of IS submitted by the New York club. Negotiations looking to the sale of Charles S. Dooin probably will take definite form tomorrow. Manager Her- zog, of Cincinnati, is expected here to confer with the Philadelphia officials and it was stated tonight that the ob ject of bis visit was to get Dooin for the Cincinnati club; r; New York. Jan.. 4. The New York Nationals today obtained the services of Hans Lobert, -third baseman of the Philadelphia Nationals, as the result of a trade consummated in Philadel phia. In exchange for Lobert the Philadel phia Club will receive a cash consid eration and the following players: Al Demaree, pitcher; Milton Stock, third baseman, .and Jack Adams, a young catcher bought last fall from New Or leans. This announcement, was .made tonight by Manager McGraw, of the Giants, upon his return from Philadel phia, where he went to cptifer regard ing the deal. ' It was stated tonight that Lobert had accepted terms made by McGraw. It was understood' that the third base man would-sign a three-jrear contract. Lobert has been on the fence be tween organized baseball and the Fed eral League. He recently; visited the Federal League officials in St. Louis; and later called on President Gllmore in Chicago. However, Lobert said that ; if he were traded to New York and re- ceived the same salary offered by the j h.r ?emai organized haseha.ll. MikA Donlan. shortston of tTin ' Baltimore Federals, who played beside Lobert for years, on the Philadelphia infield, and Lee Magee,- manager of the Brooklyn Federals, visited Lobert here today and tried to persuade him to ac cept the Federal League offer. One or more of the players received i from New York may figure in the Cin cinnati deal bj which the Philadelphia management expects, to land a second baseman. -- Report here tonight was that Heinie Groh is the' player the Phil- lies are after. , Both President Baker and Manager Moran expressedthemselves as pleased with the trade arranged with McGraw. "I believe the men the Giants are going to turn over to us -will fit in the rebuilding of the team to a nicety," said Moran. ' ' "Of course I would haye liked to I have kept Lobert, but we could not j meet his salary demands."' Moran announced he had selected the j Can you qualify .Ask yourself. the question!

' Richmond, Va., Jan. 4. The transfer of theBaltimpre franchise in the In ternational League to Richmond now depends upon the acceptance or rejec tion by Richmond business interests of the Virginia League's offer, made at a meeting here today, to grant territorial rights to the International League for $10,000, the Virginia League retaining the right to play games in this city when the Internationals are on the road and the territory to revert to the Virginia League in case the Interna tional franchise should be transferred elsewhere. The proviso is added that the tran saction will be void unless sanctioned by the International League, the Na tional Commission and the National As sociation of . Professional Baseball Players. This offer was made after the Virginia League magnates had refused an offer of $7,500 for, the surrender of the Richmond territory to the Interna tionals. Virginia League directors, if their offer is accepted, say they will hardly place a team here, but desire to keep Richmond In the league so that the class C rating may be preserved.

APPLY SULPHUR IF SKIN BREAKS OUT SULPHUR DRIES UP ECZEMA USE LIKE COLD CREAM TO STOP ITCHING Any breaking out or irritation on thj face, arms, lees or body when acconr panied by itching, or when the skin iaj dry and . feverish, can. be readily over come by applying a little ; bold-sulphur cream, says a noted dermatologist. He informs us that bold-sulphur in stantly allays the angry itching and irritation and soothes and heals the Eczema right up, leaving the skin clear and smooth. Bold-sulphur has occupied a secure position for - many rears in the treatment of cutaneous disorders be cause of its parasite-destroying . prop erty. Nothing has ever been f othd to LOOKS LIKE GARDNER WILL WIN IN A WALK Doesn't Need Much Help, Sen ator Cooper Thinks. Both Wooteft and Bowie's 'Friends Claim Cinch on Speakerships Allred and Sea well Bank ing on Deadlock, (Special Star Telegram.) Raleigh, N. 'C, Jan. 4. Senator W. B. Cooper, of the Wilmington district, arrived this evening to take up his legr islative duties and Representative W. P .Stacy is. expected to reach here oh a late train tonight. Senator Cooper came in advance to take a hand in mak ing Senator Max Gardner, of Cleve land, president pro tern, but says he finds little necessity for special effort and practically no opposition is in evi dence. The eve of the Democratic caucuses for the selection of officers for the General. Assembly that convenes Wed nesday finds,, as near as can be ascer tained, 12 senators and 50 representa tives here and every train bringing recruits. t Indications are that there will e a right full attendance of Dem ocrats on the Senate and- House cau cuses tomorrow night when the presi dent protem and other officers of the Senate, and speaker and House officers will be agreed upon. Max Gardner, of Cleveland, candidate for president pro tem of the Senate, has been here all day and his opponent, F. P. Hobgood. Jr., is expected to ar rive on a late train tonight. No spe cial effort for Hobgood is in evidence and the general impression here' seems to be that Gardner's practically unan imous selection is assured. In the contest for speaker of the House the fight centers around E. R. Wooten, Lenoir, and T. C. Bowie, Ashe, with A. A. F. Seawell, Lee., and L. IL Allred, Johnston, completing the quartette- of candidates. I Wooten said to night that he bas 45i of the 94 Demo- iTv rutin mAmVkai'fl nrn m toH tn him on1 n fls counting on the nomination on the first ballot, as scarcely more than SO of the 97 are likely to be in the cau cus. On the other hand, Bowie and his frieftds insist that it is impossible for Wooten tp have so many pledged and that, while some of the western representatives are pledged to Wooten on personal grounds, Bowie has sup port of the most of the western and many of the eastern members. They insist that Bowie will be the choice of thecaucus. Seawell and Allred and their friends believe that in the probable deadlock between Wooten and Bowie one of the other of them will get away with the prize. There is little change in the situation as to other officers, R. 0. Self will be unopposed for chief clerk of the Sen ate and T.' G. Cobb will have no oppo sition for principal clerk of the House. It looks like David P. DeUinger, of Gaston, who was a prominent member of the last Legislature, will be chosen reading clerk for the House and J. H. Burnett to the same office in the Sen ate. Governor Craig is putting the finish ing touches on his message which is to be a document of only about IS type written pages, much shorter than the average governor's message in the past. HOPES OF AMERICAN SALOON KEEPERS SHATTERED Mexican Border Town of Aquia- Prieta Goes Dry. Douglas, Ariz., Jan. 4. Aguia Prieta, the Mexican town across the border, has gone dry, shattering the hopes of American saloon- keepers, put out of business December 31 by the Arizona law and who expected to reopen "in the Mexican town.
