A RICH HEIR WANTED.
Income of Over Ten Dollars a
Minute While Vanderbllt
Slept at NJght He Got About
$4,474 Richer.
Kew York, Sept. 16 Great interest
continues to be taken here in the dis
tribution which the will of Cornelius
Vanderbllt, when probated, will be
found to make of his great fortune, es
timated at $150,000,000.
Young Cornelius, eldest son of the
dead millionaire, is beliered by Wall
street men to have, the best prospects
of getting the largest share of this im
mense sum. It is pointed out that in
the last few years he has shown steadi
ness and business capacity which might
overbalance his father's strenuous but
ineffective objections to his marriage
with Miss Grace Wilson.
The income which the elder Corne
lius enjoyed during his life was one of
the largest in the country.- Of his es
timated wealth of $150,000,000, it was
said in Wall street, about $10,000,000
- was. In unproductive, assets. It was
also said that the average income on
the remainder was between 4 and 5 per
cant. - . -
Calculating an Income of 4 per cent,
on $140,000,000, it would amount to
$5,000,000 a year or $15,343.47 a day.
Perhaps a man having this income
would be willing to drop the 47 cents.
Dividing the even sum of $15,342 by
1440, the number of minutes in a day,
gives an income of about $10.65 a min
ute. This would amount to a little
less thon 18 cents a second. Thousands
of persons are glad to work an hour
for 18 cents.
Now, suppose that Mr. Vanderbllt
slept seven hours a night that was
said to hare been about his average.
While he was thus -in bed, in dream
ing unconsciousness, his Income would
have amounted to $4,474.75. Not ev
ery man can o to bed and wake In
the morning $4,474.75 richer.
The only member of - the Vanderbllt
family not in New York now is Alfred,
son of the dead finance king, who was
located yesterday in the interior of Ja
pan. He has been traveling. Word
of his father's death was sent to him on
Tuesday, and yesterday afternoon at 5
o'clock a cable message was received
from him saying that he would start
for America. 4
The finding of young Vanderbllt
was a task that engaged the attention
of many man in Japan and China.
Hundreds of dollars were spent in
cabling instructions. Mercantile
' agents and Consuls were asked to find
him, and from a dozen places messen
gers were sent into the interior of Ja
pan. In forwarding the messages to him
and in hurrying his reply, the cable
companies informed the family that
the messages would be pushed through
ahead of all except government busi
ness, and that where consent could be
obtained the messages T?oulcJ take!
precedence even over those of the gov
ernment. It was said that it was less
than one hour and thirty minutes from
the time the message was filed in Japan
the family fn New York received it.
The message came by way of Hong
kong, Singapore, Bombay, Aden, Suez,
Malta, Gibraltar,-Lisbon and London.
CASE OF KEY & CO.,
$2,400 for Exemption from
Taxation The Property 1
Released.
Winston, N. 0., Sept. 16. Captain
B. B. Glenn returned from Washing
ton to-day. He secured a compromise
yesterday in the case of Key & Co.,
rectifying distillers of State3ville and
the largest whiskey dealers In the
South, whose plant was seized by reve
nue officers.
The company offered to pay the
Government $2,400 for exemption
from prosecution for alleged irregu
larities. Collector Hark ins recom
mended that the offer be accepted, and
Captain Glenn got an order issued to
go into effect to-day releasing Key's
property. He was also instrumental
in getting the Government to release
J. H. Sprinkle, of this county, from
paying a wholesale whiskey tax charg
ed against him. j . ; .
Captain Glenn says he found the
Democrats In Washington hopeful re
garding the election this fall. They
are confident that this will prove a
winning year for the party.
Eight volunteers for service . In the
Philippines passed through Winston
to-night from Wilkes county en route
for St. Louis, where they will enter a
company.
Asa Flinn, who recently shot and
killed his brother, J. B. Flynn, near
Madison, attempted to commit suicide
in Rockingham jail. He used a pen
knife and gashed his throat. Not suc
ceeding in this attempt to end his ex
igence he used the same weapon in
stabbing himself in the breast, but the
blade was too short, and both efforts
were unsuccessful. When asked why
he tried to kill himself he said he
thought a mob wa3 trying to get in to
lynch him. - j
The naval officials responsible
for assigning Admiral Schlej to
the command of the South Atlantic
squadron, th,e most undesirable
flag-command in the nary, evident
ly felt a little bit ashamed, as they
took the trouble to give out state
ments about the intention of the
department to increase the number
of vessels In the squadron, the im
portance of the command in case
of war with Central or South
America, eto. The real object is
probably to get Schley out of reach
of inquisitive congressional com-'
mittees. -

NEGROES SHOT DOWN.
Six Killed and Others Wound-
i ed In the Illinois Riot.
t Cartervllle, 111., Sept. 18. Oarter-
ville was the scene of' a bloody riot
about noon to-day. In wnicn six ne
groes were instantly killed and one
was fatally wounded, while two others
received slight wounds.
j Trouble has been brewing since the
militia was recalled by Gov. Tanner
last Monday. . The white miners of
this place refused to allow the negro
miners to come into townlwaya meet
ing them and ordering them back.
To-day, however, thirteen negroes, all
armed, marched into town, going to
the Illinois Central depot, where they
exchanged a few words with the white
miners there.
i Then the negroes pulled their pis
tols and opened fire on the whites, who
at once returned the fire. A running
fight was kept up. The negroes scat
tered, some being closely followed by
the whites up the main street, while
the remainder fled down the railroad
track. Here the execution was done,
all who went through town escaping.
After the fight was over four dead
bodies were picked up and another ne
gro was mortally wounded.
Two more dead negroes were found
late to-night near the Brush mines,
swelling the total killed to six.
Killed :
Bev. T.J.Floyd.
! Huse Bradley.
John Black.
Henry Branum.
Jim Hayes.
One unidentified.
j Mortally wounded, Sim Cummins,
j Cummins, the wounded negro, is re
ported to-night as dead.
I Trouble has existed here off and on
for over a rear, but no fatuities occur
red until June 30th, when a passenger
train in the Illinois Central Railroad
was fired Into and one negro woman
killed. These negroes were on their
way to the mines, having come from
Pana. Jt;.-f'v ; v ' '
! A short time ' afterward a pitched
battle ensued between the union and
non-union forces, during which time
the dwellings occupied by the non
union negroes were burned. Several
arrests were made, and the accused are
in jail at Marion, awaiting trial on the
charge of murder.
i Supt. Donley, of the Brush mines,
where the negroes reside, reports that
the negroes are worked into a frenzy,
and that while he is doing all In his
power to hold them in check, he Is
afraid that he cannot do so much longer.
Company C. Fourth Regiment, 1.
N. Q., arrived here to-night, , and will
endeavor to preserve order. Forty
miners from the Herri n mines are re
ported to have left that place for this
city armed with Krag-Jorgensen rifles,
and determined to assist the white
miners here.
JIM CROW LAW IN GEORGIA
Grand Jury Indicts Southern
Railway and Seaboard
Air Lino.
Elberton. Ga., Sept. 18. The grand
jury of this county has indicted the
Southern, and Seaboard Air Line for
hauling negroes and white people in
the same coaches. The law in Georgia
Is very strict in this respect, and is
usually rigidly enforced. Both the
Southern and Seaboard operate accom
mod&tion trains, on which there are
frequently only one or two coaches,
and in this manner the negroes are
compelled to invade the cars in which
white people are riding. The matter
has excited severe complaint for some
time, and efforts have been made to
remedy It, but to no avail. Unless the
Indictments are withdrawn, It Is ex
pected that the railroads will make a
fight on the law, so far as It applies to
accommodation, or local trains with
light traffic. There have been several
instances wherein the races have clash
ed when forced to occupy the same
coaches. Particularly are the whites
opposed to letting their women ride in
such close proximity to the negroes.
Up in Maryland, near the town
of Westminster, a novel mail ser
vice is in operation-. The carrier
Is a dog, and is believed to j be the
only one of its kind 1 in the United
States that is looked upon as a
fixture in the postal service of Un
cle Sam. The dog, which is a fine
baggy fellow of goodly size, is
owned oy a man living some dis
tance from the main road, and
makes daily connection! for his
master with the rural free delivery
wagon of the postal service. At
tha game place and hour his dog-
ship ia to be found waiting for the
mail wagon, safely; bearing away
to its destination whatever is tossed
out to him.. The only difficulty
with this adjunct to the carrier
service Is that he alwaya insist!
on taking aomething home with
him, and when the driver has no
mail he endeavors to provide him
self with a bunch of old newspa
pers, which he throws oat, Where
with to appease his canine ally.
