The first ' bill ratified was one to mend the Reyisal regarding courts !PiA Craven? county, and the last one was one to allow townships In Bla den county to vote on the issue of - bonds for a railway, A curious thing ' 7 happened as to the first resolution - Introduced In the Senate, this being ;- that It was ratified at the , very last 1 hour, of 'the session. ' ; CAPITOL DESERTED. ' The Capitol was .deserted to-day, ao far as the legislative halls were concerned, except for a few clerks and the cleaners. ' The fllthlness of the second and third floors Of the buildings are beyond the telling. This was a marked fact during the entire session of the Legislature. '' One of the acts passed requires r the" State boaj-d of internal ' Improve ments to tear down the old arsenal in one corner of the Capitol square and to have It all removed not later thap July 1st. v M. A. Parker, the oldest . cotton buyer here, has gone to the Hot Springs In Arkansas. Before leaving he said to your correspondent that he expected there, would be from 15 to 20 per cent. Increase In cotton acreage In this section. Capt. J. J. Thomas, also a veteran in the same "' business, says that he does not know that there will be any Increase, but that the acreage will be as large, at least, and that the farmers will make an effort, by careful cultivation and the, liberal use of fertilizers, to grow more to the acre. They made this effort last year and, despite the bad Sfaon, produced a great crop. NO INJURY DONE FRUIT. The State entomologist says that no Injury has yet been done the fruit by the weather, anywhere In North Carolina, so far as he can learn. M. L. Shipman, wTio has for sever al years been a very efficient assistant labor commissioner, has-been tender ed the position of secretary to Congressman-elect W. T. Crawford, of the - tenth district, but has decided to re main here for the present and Roswell, Flack, of Rutherford county, has been named as acting secretary to Mr. Crawford. State Auditor Dixon has received a letter from C. Bentheim, the artist of Charlotte, stating that for $4,000 the latter would make a marble statue of Vance, which the Legislature has ordered to be placed In Statuary Hall In tho Capitol at Washington. The committees which will have charge of the matter selecting the statue will, of course. Invite designs and proposals from artists all over the country. " UNVEILING BAGLEY STATUE. It Is probablo one of the Interesting events of the year here will be the unveiling of the statue of Worth Bag ley, which is to be placed in the south west corner of the Capitol Square. The work Is nearly finished, a Washington ertin having It in charge. Next week the removal of a number of large buildings, to make way for the Masonic Temple will begin. At the same time a lot of new work In this line will be begun. Building will be very active la.Ralclgh this year, the only present trouble being the scar- city of brick. Mr. Charles H. Belvin, who for 33 years had been connected with one of the leading banks here, has resigned as its president, the bank now being the Raleigh Banking & Trust Com pany. His resignation Is due to ill health and he will probably take a long touq. Col. Charles E. Johnson succeeds him as president, Wesley N. Jones becoming vice president Next Saturday 40 persons will en ter the examination her at th nost oflice as carriers orr rural free delivery route. ACTS IN GREAT DEMAND. The acts of the Legislature are Just now in (Treat demand. To-day the rail Ayr men were on hand to obtain certi fied copies of the rate hill, the freight refutation bills and various other bills affecting; railways, such as the one In regard to union depot,, that requiring the roads to keep their cars clean, the one requiring proper steps for cars. etc. An unusually In rue numlwr of hills re garding railways were Introduced during;' the seseio nand most of these got through. It Is the custom to wait until the bills are ratified, ns changes have to be mnde at the vest last moment. At a mntler of fact, something mora than a third of the business which was before the Legislature could have been disposed of by the Secret.irv of Stute. Some of the most trifling bills Imagin able took' tip tho time of that body valuable time, which cost theK (State mote than a $1,000 a day. For one thing there are charters of towns, which re quire so many rull-calls and are so troublesome In various wava. By an easy change In the law the Legislature could irovlde for the general Incorporation of owns, and the next Legislature will be ' asked to take this step. TRIAL OF JOSHUA HARRISON. ' One of the events of Interest this week will be the trial at Elisabeth City of Joshua Harrison, charged Willi the ab duction and murder of Kenneth Beaaley. the 9-year-old son of ex-Htate Benator Samuel N, Beaaley, of Currituck coun- 1 ty. The case begins Thursday and was moved from Currituck on the ground that Harrison could not et justice In that county. Among his lawyers arc ex- , Governors Jarvla and Aycock. The Supremo Court Is this week at work on appeals from tho-Fifth District. Nont of the dockets at the present term re heavy. A - Jt Is understood that Senator Drewry i and Representative Harris will be tho oommlttee on the part 'of the tSate at th presentation of the $6,000 glfuto the Crusier North Carolina. The President of the Senate named Senator Drewry on the committee, but In the wild rush In the House during the closing hours a representative of that branch was not named, and It ts stated that the anpolnt- ment will fall to Representative Harris, who Introduced the bill making the ap proprintlon and worked so earnestly for It As Introduced, tho bill carrM t0w, but this was cut 40 half that sum.

UNlvnnriTy trustees' meeting. At 'the executive office tli's nfirnonn tlnio was a meeting of th( executive commltttio of tile board of truaiwa of the Htuto University, Ouvornor Ulenn presiding. ''The legislature, while It did not jglvo the University all the later de fired, made It quite liberal appropria tions. In fact the appropriations provided for by the Legislature mean a great amount of building at the three hospitals for the Insane, tho "-University," the Normal & Industrial College'-and the Agricultural X Mechanical College, not to speak of the new Noimal A Teachers1' Training School somewhero In the cast, the Tech nological School at Spray and the new Burma and buildings for use by tho feeble-minded, eto.

Tliat He Had Killed His Wife, Philadelphia n End Ills Own Life. Philadelphia, March 12. After making a futile attempt to murder his wife from whom he had been sep arated , William Hean, formerly of this city, but recently of Reading, Pa., committed suicide In front of his wife's home here to-night by shooting himself. Hean, who was 28. years oldended his life apparently in the belief that he had kelled Mrs. Hean. He sought his wife at her home this afternoon and begged her to return to him. He tried to enter the dwell ing, but Mrs. Hean pushed him from the door steps. He drew a revolver and fired, but the bullet went wild. Hean then turned the; revolver on himself and sent a ''bullet Into his brain. INSAXE MAN'S CRIME. Rhode Islander Shoots Ills Father and Commits Suicide. Auburn. R. I.. March 12 While Insane.

Both men have been pronlment In the Rhode Island tex tile Industry. The tragedy occurred In the Pack ham home on Pontlac avenue, when Young Peckham attacked his father without warning, shooting him In the back of the head before the latter was aware of his danger. He fired five shots more, one of which entered the lower Jaw of the victim. Young Peckham then rushed up stairs, and shot himself through the head. The Manhattan Fire, and Not the Manhattan Life IiiHurance Co. A despatch sent from Albany, N. Y., on March 9 stated that Deputy Attorney-General Mott hod secured from Justice Fijts an adjournment of two weeks In the matter of con firming the report of Judge W. M. K. Olcott, of New York, who was, Jt was erroneously stated, appointed referee In the receivership of Otto Kelsey for the Manhattan Life Insurance Com pany As a matter of fact the whole report was on the subject of the Man hattan Fire Insurance Company and not on the Manhattan Life Insurance Company, which concern, according to its annual statement Issued 1J07, Is In a prosperous condition. North Carolina Composers Coming to the Front. The Observer Is In receipt of a copy of a song, composed by two North Carolinians, which Is said to have made a hit wherever It has been sung. It Is entitled, "Meet Me on the War path," Is the work of Messrs Jack Lyon and Claude Elam, of Greens boro, and Is dedicated to the James town Exposition. The words are catchy and the music Is in tuneful, swinging waltz time. It la sure to be popular and will doubtless be heard often a tthe exposition. The C. M. Elam Publishing Com pany, of Greensboro, are getting out the song In attractive shape. The Oliver Concern Reduces IU Capital Stock. Albany, N. Y.. March The Panama Construction Company to day formed by the contractors asso ciation with ,V. J.

Salt Ste Maria, Mich., Mach 11 Iroquois Hotel was destrowed by fire to-day, causing a losa of $800,000. It was one of t-" finest hotels In north ern Michigan.

Founded No Fear but Tliat La borer Will be Plentiful. , Charleston, 8. C., March U.-t-Con-dltons in general In the Panama canal gone are declared to be extremely famorable for completion of the canal wlthtn the eighf "years ending Janu ary 1, 1315, as estimated by the en glneers.ln charge of tha work, in the' opinion of. the committees from commercial cluba In Boston, Chicago, Cincinnati and St. Louis, who arrived here to-day after a . visit to the Isth mus. .This opinion is embodied in a series of reports, all of which were approved by all members of' the party. From them a general report will be prepared by the chairman of the several groups under whose di rection they were made and the gen eral report will be submitted to the clubs represented by the committees. The committees found, according to their reports, that the- greatest hind rance to rapid progress on the canal at the present time Is a lack of ade quate dumping facilities.' This Is said to be due to a shortage of. cars for the transportation of refuse from the steam shovel plant, which, as a result, Is worked at only about 50 per cent, of Its capacity. The committee believes, however, that this condition Is being remedied as rapidly aa pos sible, and that when the supply of cars Is aunfficlently Increased the In crease in progress will be most mark ed. COMPLAINTS WELL FOUNDED. The Investigators found that some of the complaints which have been made concerning the preparation of food for the laborers appeared to be well founded. They suggest that no tice be taken of these complaints and that the necessary changes be made. They further suggest that an Improve ment In the service In the hotel din ing rooms would be welcome, and also recommended an Increase In the facilities for the amusement of the residents of the zone. Of the organization built up by those In charge of the work in the rone the committee has only words of pralnse. Sanitary conditions are declared to be excellent. Of the housing of employes the report says: "The committee saw In Panama more suitable and well built a)nd com fortable homes for laborers than Is provided anywhere else In the world for a similar purpose." The force of laborers Is adequate and efficient and the committee ex presses a belief that no difficulty will be experienced In recruiting the forcS from time to time as conditions may demand. In this connection the opin ion Is expressed that the laborers will be drawn from the white and black races, "because Chinese labor is not wanted." It Is recognized by the officials of the canal, the report says, that while the Chinese collie would meet all the requirements of Intelligence, strength and vitality, yet his introduction would lead to difficulties of admin istration and segregation which It seems desirable to avoid unless the confronting of the subject becomes necessary. The principal difficulty with the class of labor observed by the committee was that of securing efficient gang bosses from the ranks, the general scale of Intelligence ap pearing to be not quite equal to the demand. LANDS OPENED TO ENTRY. Tho President Dl recta a Modification of His Order Affecting 98,000,000 Acres of Coal LandJlIls Letter to Secretary Garfield. Washington, March 12. In a letter to Secretary Garfield, dated to-day, President Roosevelt has directed a modification of the orders issued under his direction last year, "withdrawing certain lands from coal entry. Con formably to the President's directions, about 28.000,000 acres of coal land will be immediately opened to entry with other lands to be opened as rap Idly as the geological survey can make the proper examination. The President's letter tn the. Secretary dated to-day. Is as follow!: "In view of the reports made by the geological survey on the charac ter and quantity of lands covered by the orders dated July 2d, October 10, 1 and October 1. 1906, withdrawing certain lands from coal entry and Is sued under my direction, you are di rected to modify these orders in the following particulars: "All lands which are now reported by the geological survey to contain no workable coal shall be Immediate ly released. "All lands which contain workable beds of coal and concerning which the geological survey has sufficient In formation available to enable you to properly classify, shall be open to coal entry as soon as you shall class ify such lands and promulgate rules alnd regulations for making entry. "Hereafter other lands shall1 foe similarly opened to entry as rapidly as the geological survey can make proper examination thereof and report to you. "I am advised that under this or der about 2S.000.000 acres of coal land will Immediately be opened to entry. A ROCKEFELLER 'TESTIFIES. Brother of the Oil Magnate a Witness In tlK Suit Against Gotta for Hctttl tutlon of Fund Expended In Zinc Mine Development. St. Louis. March 12. Frank Rocke feller, of Cleveland, a brother of John D- Rockefeller, resumed the lhlnwsrtenlsa wltnesa stand to-day in his suit against Henry Oosa for the restitution of 1265,000 spent by Rockefeller for a sine mine In southwest Missouri. Mr. Rockefeller said that he In spected the mine previous to buying It. "1 went down In a haft" he said, "and my attention was constantly called to the bodies of ore. In the centre room of the mine was a pillar that appeared to be practically solid sine ore. The walla of tha room had the same appearance, Tho lights -carried by the party made It look like one great crystal : palace. Tha floor seemed to be of solid ore." Rockefeller Alleges h was induc ed through misrepresentations to buy the mine and will endeavor to show the "crystal palace" effects witnessed by him did not fully portray the worth of tht deposit of ore. lis said h paid 1200,000 for the mint and spent f II, 000 on Improvements.

Kpeelul, to The Observer. . Wlnston-Salcm, March ItSenator J. C. Buxton was seen shortly after his arrival from Raleigh this morning and asked gbout the anti-trust bill passed by the General Assembly.: He said: "So far as tho trust bill la concerned, there was a certain element In. the Housa and Senate who were aspiring for the leadership In the Democratic party and some of them are well known candidates for office' in the State and in thla district. For the flret l time In their lives they were pretend ing to be friends of the farmer and wero taking great' credit to them selves as friends of the soil-tillers. The McLean bill U a fine anti-trust bill ' and is aimed, more to regulate trusts than It la to drive them out of the State. For instance, It deals with any trust that underakea to prevent bringing lta value on any market -The more conservative element of the Legislature preferred to deal with the American Tobacco Company aa an existing evil, and to regulate It rather than drive it out of the State. We knew very well that the company leav ing North Carolina would have a tendency to break up all the tobacco markets which exist in this State and cause our farmers to have to ship their tobacco from the State Into Vir ginia for sale, as that state has no anti-trust law and the market at Dan ville Is open to thei and all other buyers of tobacco. We thought It best to keep trusts within the Juris diction of our own courts, so we might remedy as far as possible any Injustice which they tntght undertake to do to tha farmers in the matter of prices. We all felt that there was a time, some 15 years ego, before our small manufacturles went out of bus iness, that legislation against the American Tobacco Company doing business In North Carolina would have been' the proper step to have taken but under the new order of things, driving them out of the State would have destroyed the business of this city, as well aa other communities where the tobacco Interests are so large. "The members of the Legislature who would be satisfied with nothing but driving the American Tobacco Company out of North Carolina took the position that we had better destroy Winston, Durham, Mt. Airy, Reldsvllle end other tobacco towns rather than leave the American Tobacco Company to do business in the State. They ad mitted It would destroy these towns, but said the Democratic platform de manded It and they were for the de struction of anything to carry out the will of the Democratic party as they see It. As a matter of fact, these men didn't mean what they said, or, If they did. they mistook the meaning of the Democratic platform. Th'y were sim ply playing politics, with an 'axe to grind.' My position in the Senate was entirely consistent with the Demo cratic platform and with the best In terests of all the people farmers, man ufacturers and dealers. Th extreme men in the House and Senate are try ing to make the impression, for their own purpose, that Senators nnd Rep resentatives who would not follow their wild schemes were opposed to trust legislation, but this will deceive nobody, because everybody recognizes they are simply playing to the grand Ktand."
