ANOTHER IX JAIL.
Julius Wilson, Jr., Committed
Jail Yesterday.
to
When the hour arrived yesterday
for the preliminary examination of
Julius Wilson, Jr., JusticeSummey's
court was filled with people inter
ested in the case. Wilson was
promptly brought into court by
deputy sheriff Worley, and Mr. T.
A. Jones, the prisoner's attorney,
entered a few minutes later accom
panied by Mr. H. B. Carter, coun
sel for the plaintiff. Boat was also
in court as a witness for the State.
After a little legal sp-rring between
the counsel on both sides regarding
the separate examination of wit
nesses. Attorney Jones carried bis
point, and all the witnesses save
Mr. C-J. Harkine, the .special de
tective, were removed from the
room. .
. Mr. Harkins was then sworn and
testified as follows: I found goods
in Wilsou's house in Salisbury, on
Saturday last. I read warrant to
him and told him I bad a eeafch
warrant for his house ; he volunta
rily sent for the articles in question
and his wife brought them in the
room; he denied the charge on
which he was arrested and said he
bought the goods from Bosf; paid
him $14.50 for same; thegoods were
cheaper than could be bought at a
wholesale store, so witness said; the
prisoner said that he had bought
goods from Bost in Asheville, on
August 8th ot last year, about 7
o'clock in the morning; he shipped
goods same morning to his wife in
Newton; he denied sleeping with
Bost. Cross eximinated by Mr.
Jones, the witness said prisoner
told him he bought the goods from
Bost, but knew that they came from
Graham's. Wilson said he shipped
the trunk containing goods to his
wife at Newton, care of Rev L. C.
Killian, who was his brother-in law;
Bost owed him $5 borrowed money,
didn t owe Bost a cent; prisoner
came up town one night; I arrested
him for carrying a pistol: he said
that he intended to pay Graham or
Bost for thegoods, but didn t have
the money alter he had paid his
fine; prisoner told hi.m he had no
receipt at all from Bost; said Bost
had sent statement of account but
wife trad burnt it up; said Frank
Crump was present when Bost
dunned him; I arrested Boat in
December.
Mr. Ed Weddin, express agent
was next sworn, and exhibited a
memoranda of one trunk shipped
to Mrs. J. M. Wilson, Newton, N.
C, by J. M. Wilson, Jr., cf Ashe-
R. H. Bost was sworn: I staid at
store last summer; Wilson slept with
me sometimes; I let him have $9.75
worth of goods, ginghams, flannels,
hosiery, etc ; the goods were really
worth more; let him have a trunk;
he picked out goods the night before
he bought them; he was to pay me
for them; I told him not to say any
thing about it; he knew all about
how be was getting them; he paid
me $7-25 since that time ; I never
owed him a cent; ho only got goods
when he staid all night: he exercis
ed a complete control over me, I
could notreluse him anything: he
was living in Asheville at the time;
I did not sign the receipt, nor I
never gave him one ; he paid me
$2 25 four weeks ago.
Mr. R. L Graham then testified
that the signature on the receipt
was not Bost's.
Mr. Harkins recalled testified that
prisoner told him Saturday that if
Bost would tell the truth he would
come ut all ngnt; out he had
never had any receipt from Bost at
all; told me this morning that he
had found a receipt
The prisoner was then sworn, and
testified that he. thought everything
was all right; that Bost was author
ized to sell goods. He went first to
see Graham but he wasn't in. Never
got any goods but once. I had no
idea goods were stole i; Bost owed
me fiye dollars. I have paid Bost
a.l I owed him. These goods are
the same' that I purched from Bost.
I shipped goods to my wife. I did
not stsal the goods.
This closed tbe testimony and
the prisoner was remanded to jail
in default of bon I in the sum of
$200. He will make bond this
week, and the case will be investi
gated by the grand jury of the In
terior court.
Other parties are being shadowed
and it will not be long before an
other arrest is made in connection
with this matter.

the Graham robbery has been cap

engaged in peddling the stolen
goods, and now says that he will
"blow" on4 everybody connected
with the theft. We also heard that
Bost would give bond, but the de
tective laughed at the idea and said
that if Bost did give bond he would
be re arrested on another charge. It

A Toronto dispatch of Saturday
evening says Cross and White had
left that day at noon for Ralegh. It
adds:
"In court io day Cross and White
looked as if they had been sick for
sojtne time. Both look., older byL
many years: wnite cried all the
time and Cross did most of the
time. The' are completely broken
up, and would have gone home at
once but for their counsel. Cros3
asked after his wife, and said if he
had heard she was dead he intend
ed to kill himself. White says he
started to go back after lie had
gotten to the depot atRaleigh. They
both say the bank wa3 gone a long
time, and that they had made a
sacrifice of tiiemselv33 to save oth
er?.'
Messrs. Cross and White started
from Canad.i :turdav. brinffiner
w:th them Messrs. Busbee and
Heart of Ral-iyrh. Thev reached
Raleigh last evening.
If intimations made by White
and Cross haye any foundation,
there are some people in Raleigh
who will wish they had not come
home.

ITEMS'
FOR THE PEOPLE
READ.
TO
New Goods are coming in daily,
and our stock is now almost complete
in every line of goods we handle. We
opened to-day a line of Men's Patent
Leather Shoes in Congress and Bals,
at $2.98 per pair, worth $4, stylish
and well made. Our stock of Chil
dren's School Shoes is probably lar
ger than that of any other store in
the city not confined exclusively to
Shoes, all grades and prices. Our $1
School Shoe is splendid value. Bar
red Muslin at 6Jc. worth 9, a piece of
cream and one of pint at 12 Jc. cheap
at 18c. : a beautiful line of Satines in
short lengths, 2 to 10 yards in a piece
at the astonishingly low price of 10c.
per yard, worth 18c. We have our
third supply of Standard Novels at
12c. per volume, regular 25c. books.
The handsomest lamp for $1.08 we
ever saw under $2.50; a glass fruit
stand, very large for $1, only 4 left,
but more ordereel, extremely cheap.
Beautiful Glass Pitchers for 72c. The
same has been sold in Asheville for
$2. A large line of Glassware atless
than auction prices. Our curtain
goods, Table Damask, Napkins and
Doylies cannot be beaten in price or
quality. To Housekeepers we say, tlo
not fix up your homes for the Spring
and Summer until you learn our
prices on all kinds of using things, for
dining room, kitchen, bed room and
parlor. We guarantee prices lo be
lower than anywhere else in the city.
Our goods arc bought in immense
quantities by a concern able to put
40,000 dollars in Straw Hats alone at
one purchase. These are sent out to
the different, "Racket Stores" con
nected with No. 4G6 Broadway, and
to no others. We put taem into the
hands of the consumer in nianv cases
(as we shall a part of these Straw
Hats as soon as they come) at prices
lower than other merchants pay for
them. There is no mystery about it:
it is perfectly simple the power of
ample capital to buy from the auc
tions in large lots, and the Agencies
established in large towns to distrib
u(XijrooJ3 amoag the people at a
close prorrV Nothina . told at cost.
no credit, spot cash, no bad accv,w Jts,
goods bought for dollars down and
sold the same way. Any other mer
chant in Asheville will tell you that
this is the only correct way to buy
and sell goods if he will lay aside his
prejudice. Come and see the goods
and learn the prices. Do you good
and save you money.
Very respectfully, &c,
GEO. T. JONES & CO.

What Bo Yon Want T
One may want more than his share of
comfort and happiness. That would be
selfish, and therefore wrong. But to
want a good return for seed sown is
legitimate. To obtain a good result, if
you plant garden seeds buy Landreth's
Pedigree seeds. W. E. Pelham, Drug
gist, is the only dealer in Landreth's
Seeds, and supplies only fresh seeds. 12
papers seeds lot 50 cents. Beans, and
teas, 10, 15, and 25 cents per pint
cheaper in larger quantities. No old
commission seeds at Pelham's.
Stylish, well made Clothing in great
variety.
The line embraces a number of high
class things ot foreign manufacture in
both Sack and Walking-coat cuts, and,
most important of all, the fit will be found
