A. Nichols, Mgr. ." College Street. Special to The Gazette-Xews. Greensboro. March 20. Palling on a snag of wood and breaking his neck, John (Taz) ' Rogers, a negro trusty of the city chain gang, got up, picked up his axe and continued to cut wood and finish his day's work and then after going to the camp for the night died at 10 o'clock Tuesday night. Rogers was cutting cordwood and prior to the accident he leaned over to pull a piece of wood off a log when suddenly his foot slipped and he fell, the snag catching him under the chin. According to guards and prisoners at the camp the accident happened a tiout 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. Rogers is said to have continued to work during the day without making any complaint of havinsr been hurt when he fell. Ae he was getting up from his fall he is quoted as saying: "Its a good thing that Wasn'e a sharp snag," 'cause if it had been it would have cut my head off." Yesterday monring Commissioner J. Giles Poushee, who has charge of the city convict camp, in company with County Coroner George L, Stanslmry made a trip to the camp and brought the remains of Rogers to this city, where a post mortem examination was made by County Physician W. M. Jones. According to Dr. .Tones death came as the result of a hemorrhage which gave a pressure to the brain and to the vital nerves running from there to the heart, Dr. Jones states that one of the bones of the neck was broken and that his opinion is that small frag ments o bone injured a small blood vessel and that blood accumulated in the neck, causing the hemorrhage. He also states that the length of the time the negro lived alter the accident was caused by the fact that the vessel broken was of such a small size that, it required some time for the blood to aceum ulate. I-iate Tuesday evening after work was done and about lour hours before death came, Rogers began to com plain, and from then until 10 o'clock he gradually grew worse. Xot a scratch was on the negro's neck and there were no signs that he had broken his neck.

Detectives last night raided a hotel occupied al most solely by Venezuelans and found there 40,000 rounds of ammunition and a few revolvers. This discovery led to a further raid early today. The police proceeded to a house which had been occupied for several months by General Carmelo Castro, a brother of the former president. Armed with a search warrant they went oyer the place. Among the effects of the occu pants they found only one revolver and a few cartridges. On entering one of the rooms, how ever, they found it occupied by Gen eral Clpriano Castro himself. The one-time dictator was extremely indig nant over the proceedure of the police, whose methods he denounced. It was stated that Sir George Le Hunte, the governor, cabled to London today for instructions regarding Cas tro.
