Connor. The Wilming ton girl whom Walker is charged with having Illegally carried away from here and with whom he is alleged to have lived with as his 'wife, was also IviinnirKt Wajtlr Jl . . . . . uvviBiik. uawv mm is oeing neid in custody as a material witness. Although the rrand Jury In session at the last term of federal court re turned a true bill in the case of Walker, charging him with white slav ery, it was only recently that he was apprehended in Washington. After it was found that he and the young wo manwere being held at the national capital it was not until certain papers were arranged .by. Federal Judge Con nor could the couple be returned to this state. They were brought to Wilming ton yesterday morn ins: by United States Deputy Marshal Bennett, of Washington. From the best information obtain able from the office of United States Marshal Bellamy, in the custom .house building,. Walker is alleged to have left the city about August of last year, carrying with him to South Carolina a local young woman. They are supposed to have lived in several places in South Carolina as man' and wife for some time and then to. have gone to- Washington. They were being held by federal au thorities when. It was learned that they were wanted in North Carolina. Just what charge they Were being held on in Washington "could not be learned. As first issued, the paper authorizing the return of Walker and the girl to North Carolina, signified that they were to be tried in the United States court at Elizabeth City." However, this was recently changed so that the trial could be held here. It Is understood that Walker was fined -500 by Judge Connor at the laM term of federal court on a charge 'of selling liquor.. COUNTY TO GET A NEW : MEMBER-D7 BILL WINS Representative -Bellamy Makes a : Fine Speech Morning Star Bureau, Tarborongh Hotel. By R. E. POWELL RALEIGH, - Feb. 16. rNew Hanover will., get an additional member of the house "of representatives under the re apportionment bill, which will be in troduced tomorrow by Representative Cox, of Forsyth. Union and Iredell will each lose a member and New Hanover and Forsyth will gain one each. There are no other changes in' the member ship .which will remain at 120. Representative Bellamy made one of the best speeches of the morning, pleading for the road bill. It was the first time the young member from Wilmington had really "opened up" and the other fellows were watching him - rather sharp today. He . has .Introduced the bill, in the house to take Topsail township away from Pender ffnd add it to New Han - over. A public hearing will be held on the bill before the counties, cities and towns committee one day next weeR. to lobby, Bryan, howver has" always been lobbying on his visits here and Burgwin, Northampton, ctmldn'tj make any distinction between "' the two as entertainers. In fact, he much pre ferred Dixon. It : was the Northamp ton ' senator's motion that revised the joint resolution inviting the author after it had been killed by the com mittee this morning. He brought it to the floor and then made a game fight against Senators McCoin, Vance, and Nash, Richmond, both of whom ob jected to any further lectures to the law -makers. Three hours of debate last night and a little more than this- amount today, found the rdad bill 4 hardly half way to passage In the house. Representative Connor, one of the three authors, had Just begun to explain the provisions when the house recesea until the nlgnt session. TAYLOR THINKS HARDING IS SURE TO NAME SOUTHERNER REPUBLICANS NOT UNIT ON DOUGHTON BILL (Continued from page one) itself mostly in reconsidering its ac tion rejecting the resolution to invite Tom Dixon to make the legislature a speech here tomorrow. Mr. Dixon will be invited '- what is more 'he will have accorded him a courtesy that is seldom shown a dis tinguished guest of the general as sembly. ' The resolution, drawn and sponsored in the. house by Mr. Bryant, Republican, Yadkin, directs the two presiding officers to name a committee to wait on Mr. Ddxon when his ar rival is made known tomorrow. It ?s generally assumed. that he will,. accept the invitation. The firht over the resolution in the senate this morning centered chiefly around his known antagonism to the censorship bill. Some of the members were afraid it would not be proper for him to talk, inasmuch as he is coming WASHINGTON, Feb. 16. Repre sentative Taylor, Republican, Tennes see, declared in a statement today he was confident that President-elect Harding, would give a southern man a place in--his cabinet because, of the "magnificent showing" which the Re publicans of the southern states made In the last election. "I have taken the position ever since the election that we have earned at least one cabinetship and I believe the president-elect will take " the same view," Mr. Taylor asserted.

"I am tired of such 'discrimination, 7 he-shouted . heatedly. ;"The time has borne when a protective tariff will do some good for the agricultural classes and I am hore to see that they get it, notwithstanding the charges thrown into my face by the New Hampshire senator." NEW ENGLAND SENATOR BITTERLY ASSAILS THE BILL AND SUPPORTERS ' (Continued from pasre one) 'driving at high speed in the wrong direction" in passing the bill, saying he had not been so much opposed to the proposition as it was sent over from the house, but that amendments by the senate finance committee and the senate had put it out of the class of emergency legislation. In its broad ened scope, Mr. Edge asserted, the measure was nothing less than an In vitation for other nations to begin re taliation. In adding to the bombardment of the two Republican senators, the eight hour session produced a continuous fusillade on the measure from the Democrats, starting with Senator Reed, CIGARETTE A 5 Saving No cigarette has the same delicious flavor as Lucky Strike.
