THE DEBATE AT GREENSBORO GREAT GATHERING TO HEAR THE REPUBLICAN AND DEMO CRATIC CANDIDATES FOR THE SENATE. Simmons Could Have Defeated Senator Pritehard,s Pension Resolution if he had Desired. AN EXCITING INCIDENT AT CLOSE OP DEBATE. ISENATOR PRITC& HIS OPINION OP SOIY AUDIENCE WHO INTERRUl-i HIM WITH HISSES. -Special to the, Gazette. Greensboro, N. C., Oct. 1. This city's large opera house was filled this after noon when Senator Pritchard and Mr L-'raig eld their joint discussion. La dies occupied seats in the gallery and upper boxes. The senator was intro duced by Chairman Douglass of the Guilford county executive committee. Pritchard scored Shnimons for his stand against the farmers of western North Carolina in his vote oh the oleomarga rine bill. His colleague, said jthe sen ator, had stood by the oleo concern with headquarters at Chicago and de serted the farmers of his home state. The Confederate soldiers, he said, who were now drawing $20 would next year secure $13 and yet the democrats prated continually of love for the Confederate veteran and part of their campaign cry was liberality toward the soldiers. To talk of the circulating medium to Mr. Craig he said. Was very much like handing a cup of water to a. mad dog. Senator Pritchard dealt Mr. Craig a decided blow when he declared 1 that Mr. Simmons could have defeated his pension resolution had he so desired, as the resolution could only have been passed by unanimous consent. Senator Pritchard asserted that Treasurer Worth was as honest as was Donald Bain, whose estate was com pelled to make good several thousand dollars that had been stolen by employ es in his .office. -At - the conclusion of the senator's speech several bouquets Were handed him.

Mrs. Carrie Johnson and Mrs. Etta Delaney. sisters. living on Chase street, were in the police court today to air their troubles in connection with a. hot-biscuit duel that took place last night. The sisters, it appeared, were not on friendly terms, and when Mrs. Delaney started to carry a tray of hot biscuits to a neighbor across her sister's lot. the latter attacked her. .Mrs. -Delaney re taliated with a rapid-fire bomibardinient of hot (biscuits. The (biscuits when once brought into play were used by both women as missiles until Mrs. Johnson was worsted, and then she caused the arrest of her sister. These biscuits were not made with Ruanford Baking Powder. Police Judge Wachonheimer told the sisters that they should put their bis cuits to better use, and let them go. Mrs. Delaney tossed her head indig nantly and became angry when her biscuits were pronounced as "hard as rocks." The biscuits oame through the duel with scarcely a dent. T. C. H. DUKES IN CHARGE UF BATTERY PARK HOTEL The question of the permanent man agement of the Battery Park hotel is one that, it eems likely, will not be' settled for some time. Frank Coxe stated yesterday that T. C. H. Dukes, who has for a long while been head bookkeeper, will have charge of the ho tel for the present. Whether or not Mr. McKissick's estate will claim a valuable interest in the please is not known, but it seems pretty certain that anyone who wished to do so could in volve the matter in very complicated legal technicalities. On the renewal of the lease some three years ago Mr. Mc Kissick installed $8,000 or $10,000 worth of new furniture, on which he has been carrying insurance in his own name. The new furniture was one of the con ditions of the lease and at the expira tion of 12 years would have become the property of Colonel Coxe. But the 12 years have not expired.

MOB WRECK TRAIN ON JERSEY CENTRAL. THE CEDAR BLOCK PAVING OF CHICAGO BEING TORN UP FOR FUELPOLICE GUARDS PLACED VER A CAR LOAD OF ANTHRA CITE AT THE CAPITOL IN WASH INGTON. New York, Oct. 1. Several coal op erators here who received the presi dent's invitation sent out today, com municated with one another this after noon and agreed to respond to the call to the white house or send representa tives. The operators 'are not pleased with what they termed the president's interference, but refused to openly dis cuss Ropsevelt's move. An Erie of ficial who declined to permit the use of his name, said: "The operators will go to Washington simply as an act of courtesy to the president, but here is only one way to settle the strike, and that is for the men to return to work unconditonally . The strike would have been settled long ago, but for outside interference, and the president's call will only delay set tlement. Interference toy Governor Stone, Senator Hanna and Mr. Roose vent only prolongs the strike." All the presidents of " the coal roads privately call Roosevelt's invitation "meddlesome interference," but will not publicly comment on the action.. On the other hand, friends of the strikers declare the calL shows the courage of an Abrahami Lincoln, and is bound to result in good. i CONFERENCE, OCTOBER 3. Washington, Oct. 1.

Obstruc tions were placed on the track and the engine and several cars thrown into a ditch. Railroad men who attempted to clear the track were assaulted .

The first car load of anthracite received at the cap itol since the beginning of the coal strike arrived today. It is designed for use at the white house.

These, cars were also objects of curious ob servation, a police guard was sent for to protect the precious stuff at the capltol. There is only coal enough to last until November 1, with no prospect of replenishing the supply unless the president's conference results in ending the strike. 1 PRESIDENT BAER MUM. Philadelphia, Oct. 1. President Baer of the Reading Coal company officially announced this evening that the strike was no nearer an end than at any time during the struggle. He said there can only be one end to the strike, and that is by the men returning to work at the operators' terms. He would not permit , the newspaper men to ask him what effect the president's call for a conference would have, would not even admit that the president's telegram had been received. It is evi dent that Baer as angry at the presi dent's action, and the foregoing an nouncement would not have been made but for the president's radical move. CHICAGO'S PAVED STREETS IN DANGER. Chicago, Oct. 1. The city's cedar block pavements are threatened with removal on account of the scarcity of coal. The blocks make good fuel, and every night recently thousands of blocks are dug from the streets by people who can't secure coal. Several hundred miles of the city's streets are paved with cedar blocks, and the prob lem of saving them is becoming se rious. Wooden "sidewalks, billboards and unguarded buildings are being car ried off for fuel.
