Waste Conditions in Lnmbertoa Much Improved--Credit of Ten Per Cent. Will be Allowed on All Brick Mercantile Buildings for Observance of Fire Waste Law Good Work of Fire Chief Townsend Commended. Mr. J. P. Townsend, chief of the local fire department, has received from the North Carolina Inspection and Rating Bureau a letter from which the following is taken: "We are very much pleased to note the improvement of conditions in Lumberton and in view of the inspec tor's report we are going to revise the rate on all brick mercantile build, ings in Lumberton, allowing a 10 per cent credit for the observance of the1 fire-waste law. This rating will be is. sued as soon as we can get the work out of-our rating department, which we hope will be within the next ten days." This was in reply to a report of in. spection made in Lumberton recently by Deputy Commissioner F. M. Jor dan and Mr. Townsend. They in. spected 60 buildings, around 34 of which they found general conditions good. Conditions around others have been improved since the report was made. In submitting his report Mr. Jordan says that he finds fire-waste conditions here very much improved since his last inspection, that several old frame buildings have been torn down and brick ones' erected in their stead, and that Mr. Townsend is to be congratulated for his good work in improving fire-waste conditions as well as in enforcing the building laws. "Mr. Townsend is certainly doing his duty," concludes Mr. Jordan's report, 4,as chiefof the hre department ana building inspector, and if the city board will stand by him conditions here will continue to improve."

A number of shucks were found in the cow's stall with Pans green on them and some others with poison on them were touna arop ped along a path not far from Pone's, house.

The day after Pone's cow died Bell noticed that some of his hogs were a little sick and noon examination found that some Paris green had been placed in a hole of water that was in one of his pens.

WORST DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THIS SECTION Railroads Give Hamlet to Wilmington and Fayetteville to .Wilmington Towns Sorriest Treatment Thia Section Discriminated Against Worse Than Any Other in State and Apparently Least Aroused. Mr. H. E. Stacy, one of the dele. gates sent by the local Just Freight Rates Association to the Raleigh con ference Tuesday, says that he learn ed at Raleigh that towns between Hamlet and Wilmington and between Fayetteville and Wilmington carry a heavier burden of freight rate dis crimination than any other section 'of the State, and that the railroads re fused at the Old Point Comfort con ference to give this section as great reductions as were given other sec tions. Owing to the fact that that fact has not been generally known this section was not well represented at the conference in Raleigh. --Lum berton was the only town between Hamlet and Wilmington that was rep. resented. The reductions offered for this zone zone 3 were only from 80 cents to 69 cents. Mr. Stacy says that it was a mad set of men that attended the Raleigh conference and President bred late, of the State Just Freight Rate Asso. ciation says there is going to be a sure.enough fight from now until this matter is settled right. All sections that have not organized are called upon to organize at once and towns in which just freight rate associa. tionstions have already been organiz. ed are urged to get busy. Ex-Sheriff Geo.

No Sentiment at Raleigh Conference for Acceptance of Reductions Offer, cd on Inter-State Freight Rates "Insult to Intelligence of North Carolina," Declares Clark Will Bring On Another Conference. Raleigh News and Observer, 13th. Governor Craig. th C-ouncu of State itr-.'l the Just Freight Rate Asso. ciiticn yesterday unanimously decMn ei. with selectthanks, the recent pro. position ox tne raitroaa;, matting re. ductions on inter-State freight rates. If thre was any sentimerr. for ac. toptanct at an ytime or myvhec in ceptance at any timeor anywhere in her of Commerce and later in the Sen. itc chamber, there was n . Sherlock Holmes to detect it. Thers were some divided interests, a point or two mov. ed by local reasons to object to the proposal because it threatens slightly present conditions, but nobody appear. ed to favor the terms of the Old Point Comfort conference. The conference yesterday bestowed thanks, commended the Corporation Commission for its work, even when Attorney John Mitchell twice moved to strike out the amended portion of the Preston resolution that thanked the Corporation Commission for its activity. Col. A. A. Thompson took up for the home body, declared the commission a set of patriots and Mr. Mitchell withdrew his motion as a personal tribute to the Raleigh manu facturer. Chief Justice Clark declared the railroad proposal an "insult to the intelligence of North Carolina," and Mr. Mitchell sat in the Chief Justice's corner. But there was a striking ab. sence of heat in the settlement yes. terday and nobody abused anybody else. And men who say they know some. thing of the popular temperament, had been saying before the meeting that "the people" are in favor of the terms offered through the Corpora tion Commission s report. Ihey had said they hear the talk and that the folks at home want this thing set. tied. The folks that wanted the con. troversy settled in the railroad way must have been at home. They wern't here yesterday. There was a concilia, tory spirit upon the part of a few men to accept the terms while they were enjoying these concession by local reasons. But nobody was in tavor it. Governor Craig's and the Council's refusal of the terms will bnn,r nn other conference here. The roads have asked for it. They do not indicate the time. No action of the adminis tration will win him more friends. Killed By Negro to Whom He Refused Loan. Aberdeen Special, 12th, to Charlotte Observer.

RAILROADS' PROPOSITION GOVERNOR SULZER IMPEACHED Two Men Claim to Be Governor of State' of New York Lieutenant Governor Flyno Announces Inten tion of Assuming Duties of Chief Executive While Sulzer's Friends Declare He Will Continue in Office Courts May Decide Article of Impeachment. ' Albany, N. Y., Dispatch, 13th. With Governor Sulzer impeached hy the Assembly, and the date of his trial before the Senate and the judges of the court of appeals fixed for Sep tember 18th, the spectacle was pic sented tonieht of two men claiming to be Governor of the State of New York. As soon as the articles of impeach ment adopted at an early hour this morning by the Democratic majority in the Assembly were presented to the Senate, shortly after 3 oelocK this afternoon, Lieutenant Governor Mar. tin H. Glynn announced his intention of occupying the executive chamber. Friends of Governor Sulzer declared that the Governor intended to con tinue in office and would use every weapon in his power to maintain his position on the ground that the As. sembly had no constitutional right to consider impeachment at its extraor dinary session. Some asserted that the oovernor would. go so far as to summon mili tary protection if necessary to pre vent the Lieutenant uovernor rrom oc cupying the executive chamber. Judge D. Cady Herrick, who will act as chief counsel for the Governor at his trial, said tonight that "talk of resort to force is the merest rot." "He will meet the charges against him in an orderly and dignified way " said Judg Herrick," and will do nothing unbecoming the dignity of the State. He will engage in no physical scramble to assert his rights to dis charge the functions of the office of Governor." The Governor himself was silent. When at 6 o'clock tonight he left his office in the Capitol where he had been closeted the entire day, he was asked if he expected to return tomor row. "Yes siree," he replied in angry tones. So fas as could be learned, no at tempt was made by Lieutenant Gov ernor Glynn in any way to exercise the functions of the chief executive today, but there was every indication that there would be a clash of author ity tomorrow when both men appear at the Capitol. The Lieutenant Governor would not indicate tonight what action he in tended totake except that there would be "no circus or military maneuvers about occupying the executive cham. ber; the law is supreme." The inaction of Lieutenant Gover. nor Glynn in the matter was in the face of arguments given expression both in the Senate and in the As. sembly today that at the moment the articles of impeachment were pre sented to the Senate Governor Sulzer automatically ceased to be the chief executive. This contention was based oh an article in the constitution which says that "in case of impeachment of the Governor the powers and duties of the office shall devolve upon the Lieutenant Governor." It seemed practically certain tonight that the Governor and the Lieutenant Governor would both resort to lega tests of their respective claims in the courts, which in the history of New York State never have been called upon for an opinion which would act as a precedent. Reports that Mrs. Sulzer would give out a statement setting foHh the details of her alleged use of Governor bulzer's campaign, checks for stock speculation unknown to the Governor, did not materialize today. Friends intimated that in view of the fact that Mrs. Sulzer probably will be called as a witness for the defense at the trial what she may have to say will be re served until she takes the witness stand. The articles of impeachment against Governor Sulzer as passed by the Lower House of the New York Legis lature this morning made a document of over 4,000 words. They are intro duced by the formidable heading: "Articles exhibited by the Assembly of the btate of New York, William Sulzer, Governor of said State, in maintenance of their impeachment against him for wilful and corrupt misconduct in his said office, and for high crimes and misdemeanors." The articles, eight in number charge the Governor with violating the penal laws of the tstate not only in con nection with the filing of an improper and incorrect account of his campaign expenses and diverting campaign con tributions to the purchase of stocks but also in connection with lAa alleged efforts to prevent witnesses from tes tifymg before the Frawley mvestiga ting committee. He is also charged with attempting to manipulate the stock market by attacks on the Ex cnange. Extend Mosquito Crusade. Washington Cor., 12th, News and Ob server.

FOREIGN POWERS FRIENDLY Inclined to Support Peace Policy of President Wilson Toward Mexico Ambassador Wilson Disturbs by 111. Advised Statement. Washington Dispatch, 13th.

President Wilson read the Ambassa dor's statement and was ao incensed at its tone and contents that he re quested Secretary Bryan promptly to ascertain through the British Embas sy here whether the utterance of the liritish foreign Office as reported was correct and tonight the dismissal of Ambassador Wilson by summary ac. ceptance of his resignation, to take effect immediately, was under consid. eration by the, Administration. Ihese are the developments of the day here, in the Mexican situation, while dispatches from John Lind, per. sonal representative in Mexico of President Wilson, indicated that he was in personal touch with Frederico Gamboa, Mexican Minister of For. eign Affairs, and was preparing to submit the representations of the United States on the restoration of peace in Mexico.
