Mr. Robert E. Daniels, formerly a deputy sheriff of the countyi but now a clerk at the 8. J. Davis Livery Com pany's stable, on Market street, sub mitted to Justice MoGowan last night for an assault upon Justice Q. - W. Bornemann. The- submission will be heard Saturday afternoon at 4. o'clock. Justice Bornemann, as a result of the altercation, , has two large black eyes and other injuries about the face, which were treated after the assault, which ' occurred- last night; about 7 o'clock, by Dr. W. J. EL Bellamy. The altercation occurred in Justice Bornemann'a store, where Mr. Daniels went to accost the . proprietor for an alleged - indignity : ia asking Mrs. Daniels', to leave the place some time previous.' When Mr. Daniels demand ed an apology ' for . harsh treatment which he had heard the justice had shown his wife, -Mr. Bornemann is said to have become ancrv and threatingly approached Mr. Daniels, who defended himself.

Hundreds Gathered There and Participate! la Exercises of Humiliation V asd Prayer St."" James' Episcopsl - Chnrch On the Streets. The ' sympathy of the people of a grand old Southern city, mingled with a feeling of sadness, upon , the; tragic death of the ruler of their Republic, found glorious expression in 'Wil mington yesterday in the memorial services, elaborately planned and exe cuted in his honor. Wherever services were held the attendance was lartre and thoroughly cosmopolitan repre sentative tf all classes and conditions of men. - V- - Z -, - . At the First Baptist Church the joiftt service of a majority of the congrega tions of the city was, perhaps, the most elaborate. The large main auditorium of the building was literally packed with people and the galleries were likewise filled. It is estimated that fully .fifteen hundred persons ; were present, while many others were turned away. The exercises lasted ''a little more than an hour and , were exceed-, ingly appropriate and in keeping with the proclamation . of reverence ' and prayer. - The decorations were simple but- in'' good taste. Around, the pulpit waa a . profuse cluster of palms and just above there were United States and Pythian flags ap propriately draped. A shield of red white and blue with the stars and stripes was in evidence where the colors fell in graceful folds over the gallery railing. . The service opened with a dirge, Departed Comrades" (Keller) by the Second Regiment Band, which played from the gallery over the entrance to the church. There were present upon the platform. Rev. Dr. Calvin B. Black well, pastor of the First Baptist church, who was. director of. the ser vice; Rev. Dr. A. D. McClure, pastor of St. Andrew's Presbyterian church ; Rev. Dr. A. G. Voigt, pastor of SL Paul's Lutheran church; Rev. Dr. 8. Mendelssohn, rabbi of. the Temple of Israel; Rev. Jno. H. HalL pastor of Fifth Street VL E. church; Rev. R. H. Herring, pastor of Southside Baptist church; Rev. Dr. G. D. Bernheim, pastor emeritus of SL Matthew's Luth eran church; Rev. C. W. Kegley, pastor of St Matthew's Lutheran chujah; Rev. J. P. King, pastor of the Second Advent church, and Rev. P. CL Morton. Following tbe dirge by the band the congregation and choir sung with much effect and . spirit of patriotism. My Country J 'tis of Thee." In the choir were ,JIisses Carrie 8. White, Norma Foster and Mattie Lee Home, sopranos; Mrs. E. G. Woody, alto; Messrs. a H. Cooper. R. F. Fowler and W. L. Willif ord, tenors; Messrs. O. SJ Grainger, J.S. Williams and A. S. Holden, basses; Mr. E. H. Munson and Mr. Alf. H. Yopp, organists. Following the aOng was a very sol emn invocation by Rev. P. C. Morton, after which a male quartette consist ing of Messrs. O. H. Cooper, R. F. Fowler, Jaa. S. Williams and A. S. Holden, rendered the beautiful selec tion: "Remember Now thy Creator," by Rhodes. - Rev. Dr. Mendelsohn read from the Old Testament Scriptures, Second Samuel, third chapter, 26th to 39th verses, and Dr. Blackwell read an ap propriate lesson from Luke, 22nd chapter, 39th to 9th verses. Rev. Jos. P. King offered a beauti ful prayer ad then there were three ten minute addresses in their order as follows, all of which were listened to with great attention and profit: . Rev. A. a Voigt, D. U. We have assembled here not to pronounce runerai eulogies on our dead President, although it is hard not to do so; nor to express our nor- . A. 1 ror and execranon oi toe atrocious deed that caused his death, although it is difficuli to restrain -one's sell from so doing. The newly inaugur ated President of the United States has most fittingly, as his first official act, appointed this day of mourning and prayer. In so doing he met the wish of the great heart of the .nation. It was hardly necessary to appoint a day of mourning, for from the black hour when the fatal bullet pierced the rbody of our beloved President until this hour the wnoie lano nas Deen filled with mourning. Probably never in the history of our country; has there been such a manifestation of universal sorrow as this in which we, though a vast throng, bear-but a fee ble part. Even without the procla mation of the President this would hiT been a dav of mournin&r. - i "Nor did the neonle wait for . the head of the nation to say. 'Let us pray.' The heart of the people has spontaneously been poured . out in Erayer. . Those accustomed to pray ave turned aside from their habitual petitions to concentrate their longings in tha one reauest for the life of the Pm&idAiit and the comfort of his de-C voted wife; who so bravely bears the trial which is her personal grief and our common Borrow. And I believe that many who are not wont to pray for their own needs, have in these hours lifted up their souls in prayer to God for the common object of the nation's solicitude. ' ' ; w ? ; "We mourn to-dav. We nsourn with the widow for him, who as a husband was to her a delight as he is an honor to the nation. We mourn' the - un timely death of a President, who by his wisdom in the administration of public affairs, by his amability and ur banity of deportment, ana oy nis vir tues in private and -domestic life en deared himself to the whole country as few of his predecessors have done. We mourn for a man who, as many riiatino-niahed men are not was arnaa ter character as well as a master mind. It seems to me one . of ' the highest taattmnnlAh of ' his worth and wisdom WILMINGTON, N. C, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER spread apprehension that his successor will not be like him. In these days of sorrow nothing has given the country greater assurance that the announcement by President Roose velt of his intention to continue the policies of President McKinley. It is as if the united voice of the country were addressing him and saying 'Do so. Continue in x the course of the noble man whose mantle'has fallen up on you.' Continue in that course until the end of your administration.- and you will receive as your noble prede cessor now receives from a grateful country the plaudit: 'Well done, thou good and faithful servant of the people. "We mourn for a good President. But we have reason to mourn also for ourselves and our nation. We must confess before God we are a guilty na tion. . This one chief deed ' of infamy that has stirred the soul of the - people to its depths is but one of countless deeds of wickedness that are commit ted in our borders; nor, however much we may detest the black deed, can we be- blind to the fact that it does not stand isolated and disconnected from the injustice and oppression and greed that prevail in this : and other "lands. This; day of national mourning is a time for us to say with the psalmist: 'Thou hast set our iniquities before Thee, our secret sins in the ; light of Thy, countenance.' It is a time for us to pray , to God vo ' purify our hearts, to purify our nation, and so to establish us in righteousness that such a crime as an attempt upon the life of the head of the nation will become a moral impossibility among us. . "Our new President has appointed this to be a day of prayer. Doubtless he was prompted to do so by the over whelming sorrow dn account of his and our chief. It seems to me that he must have been touched, also, by a sense of the grave responsibilities he had just assumed. But whatever actuated him. he needs our prayers. Every man who assumes the dutieslof the presidency needs the prayers of the people. So let iis not forget to pray forour young President. May he receive wisdom, guidance and strength from God on high, in whom we trust. "And now with minds chastened by sorrow and humiliation let us turn to a more pleasiug thought The life and administration of President McKinley has done much to intensify the union and strengthen the unity of the people. nis death has done still more. There is comfort in this thought as we in spirit stand by the crave while the body of our beloved President is tnven over to the ground.' Even in the sad ness and gloom of this day we can re joice, with Senator lioar, who said: Thank Qod, there is no division in the people to-day. Rich and poor, Pro testant and UatboJIc, native born and foreign born, are mingling their sor row, xne coward blow mat nas stricken down one noble life has strengthened the life of the nation.' " i Reverend John H. Hall. When Moses and Aaron died the congregation mourned for them, and so did the Israelites when Samuel passed away. While they were the civil rulers of. the people, yet they were also their leaders in a higher and better way. All of them had been chosen to fill that exalted position of communicating, by word and example. tbe will or Uod to the people. .Being faithful to their high trust till life's last day they were greatly mourned in their, taking away. "Moses and Aaron among Mis priests, and Samuel among them that call upon His name." And so the psalmist felici tates the Israelites upon having had such rulers. Moses and Aaron were the first rulers under the Theocracy, and virtually Samuel was the last. 4 There was great mourning in all the land when these three died. And far removed from these in time and circumstances but. not in character another leader, our chief, William McKinley, has fallen and is mourned as truly and as sincerely as were they. The strongest evidence of devotion to lofty ideals and near ap proach thereto which a . nation 'can furnish to the world, has been furnish ed by us and that is, true and heart- teit sorrow tor ine aeain or our cniei tain and righteous indignation and horror for the manner thereof. God's greatest gift to our nation is a ruler of iuch upright and noble character as was our President and the devil's greatest curse is such an one as his alayer.. The one from above the other from below. The one stands ror law, order, righteousness and peace while the other is the enemy or tnem an. He belongs to that class which breaks down the carved work of God's house with axes and hammers and casts fire into His ssanctuary and denies by cast ing down the dwelling place of God's name to the ground. In the garden Of the Lord they substitute the thorn for the grape, the thistle for the fig, and the apples of Sodom for the fruit of life. With whips and scorpions they would drive the children from the play ground and hush forever their songs and shouts at play. But thank God, their number is small and doomed to become smaller, if not ex tinct. " , ' ;. ; They shall go down td the vile dust . ' From whence they sprung. Unwept, unionorea, UDflunsr." But the virtues of our dead Presi dent shall be told in song and story; for kings and men shall delight to do him honor. Like Moses, , he was the leader of his people over rough and rugged ways . and like him, , also, in that he was a man who sought divine guidance in the discharge of his high and delicate duties, and still further like him in not being permitted to enter with his people into the earthly Canaan. But God reserved -something better for, him a crown - of righteousness, a home in the Father's house, a mem bership in the general assembly and church of the first-born, fellowship with an innumerable company of an ft1. the snirita of just men made per fect and our elder brother. . He went from a hall of music to hear angels and saints sing -the song of Moses and th Lamb. A man of lofty purpose, of unimpeachable character," of a pure rm i - of a onnir. tenaer. anecuonaie nature one of God's noblemen; who bore that grand old name of gentle man.. Blameless in his private and official life, as gentle and sympathetic as a woman, as evidenced by bis solic itude for the soldiers on their return from Cuba. In his visit to them his bright smiles and kindly words fell upon them like a ray of sunlight on a prison wall.- And what - wss more beautiful than bis sweet ministry to bin sick wife! And for this, if for nothing else, every woman of i the land should rise "up' and call him blessed. . His thoughtfulness and con sideration was bestowed upon u, nnon his slaver-r :"Let no one hurthim." ; , - i V- BeV Mr. Hall closed his touching reference with a beautiful poem, ex ceedingly appropriate "and consoling hi hearers In this, their hour of Rev. Dr. A D. McClvre. f ' Dr. McClure began by reading the nrst nve verses or the thirteenth chan ter of the Apostle Paul's letter to the uomans, and said:- . .. . , - This is the message of .the Apostle by inspiration to his day and suits the conditions that call us together to-day. As a nation we are guilty id the terms here used. It ia time to realize this. There is too little regard and rever ence for office bearers in our country : we are hasty . and rash in our fault rinding and criticisms. It is enough that a man be of the opposite party jo be condemned. - - But . the scriptures say, xnouranali not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.' , Our fault in this is but a part of our national sin that gives excuse and license to : men to go lunner ana am any such ruler as our late lamented President whom we mourn to-day. I wish to call attention to this and to raise my voice to con demn it 5 .. . . ..; ..;' . ; 2. Another 'sin may be mentioned a important here, because ; it ia the evidence of a wide spread and serious moral tendencv. This is the niHt nf lawlessness, wide spread,and growing; ik. appears hi our ijncnjugs. Presi dent McKinley feared this and" said, when he feared that the 'mob might take the law in their own hands.' "Do not let them1 hurt him." Thera la a crime in our Southland which, is base and I yield to none in condemning it But it does not warrant the hasty procedure of punishment without due process of law. That oely adds one murder to another. By all means let the trial be speedy and the execution of, its penalty swift But let the law have its d ne miiMA It is time for us all to create and cul tivate a publio sentiment to uphold the majesty of the law. Anarchism is only one of the worst expressions of contempt for law and order. - 3. Nothing but religion can cure this evil. "Righteousness exalteth a nation," and righteousness is true re ligion in relation and obedience to law. In this I hear a call to carrv our religion to these godless and law less ones. I hear a call for home mis sions to enlighten and save. Bv all means let the guilty be punished. But let us try to redeem and save as far as possible. ; If ahy one savs I cannot understand how the will of God is done in the death of President McKinley, so good and so great, I point to this assem- Diy called together: to the thousands assembled throughout our country as we are; to the unity of our minds, and the union of our patriotism, expressed and promoted bv this. Thinking of what it means" to the President I recall an incident of a rail road employe on his wav to execute a command. His train was flagged and he was ordered to report to the super intendent He wondered if there was any charges against him. No. When ne entered the office of the superin tendent he was greeted with this: "I have called you back: to nromote vou " So our President was stopped in the way of duty and called to the Dre.-:ence of our Great Master. He is only pro moted as he hears the bidding: "Friend, come up higher." The Remalninf Exercises. Upon conclusion of the addresses. Dr. Blackwell read with much feelinir a touching poem, "Death Has Crowned Him a Martyr " written by Ella Wheeler Wilcox soon after the death of the President. The solo, "I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say," (E. VanLaer) waa sweetly rendered by Miss Mattie Lee Horne and Rev. R. EL Herring offered a very fervent prayer after which "Nearer My God to Thee" was sung with much effect by tbe congregation. Rev. O. W. Kegley pronounced the bene diction. The Services at St. James'. The service for the Episcopal con gregations of the city at St James' Church was largely attended and the Rev. Dr. James Carmichael spoke with much feeling and appropriate ness upon the life and character of the deceased President Tne music was also befitting the occasion and greatly en joyed. General Observation in the City. The day as a whole in Wilmington was spent as one of mourning and sad ness. Many business houses and offices were closed for the entire day; others for part of the day or during the ser vices at the churches. - Several of the colored congregations held memorial services daring the day, notably St Mark's Episcopal and St Stephen's A. M. E. churches. At noon the Wilmington. Division, Naval Reserves, fired a salute of twenty-one guns in honor of the dead President' Mr. and Mrs. Hoggins Bereaved. - Friends in the city will extend to Mr. and Mrs. Frank L. Huggins "ten derest sympathy in the death of their infant son, John Cantwell, which oc curred at the family residence, Eighth and Princess streets, last night at 10 o'clock . ' ; The funeral will be from the late residence ' at 4 o'clock this afternoon, with interment in Oakdale cemetery. . . . MarrledLast Night. .

ATTEMPT MADE YESTERDAY. Boat is Too Far Prom Deep Wrter for Tags to Qet at Her Second Examination Will be Made To-day and Final Disposition Determined. The coastwise steamer Seaibright, of the Wilmington and Little River Transportation Company, of this cKy, reported In these columns l: yester day as being stranded and in a peril-. ous position off Bald Head Idandjwas notjfBoyejsf doubtf ul with. the owners if she - can be saved at all. Her position is still extremely dan gerous and tugs or appreciable size can approach no nearer than b-t een 500 and 800 yards. The gale of Tues day afternoon sent her . away Tip al most: 'high and dry" upon the'island and it would be indeed a herculean task to get her into deep water again. It is reasonably certain that the an chor jabbed a big hole in her hull just under the boiler and if this is the case her -condition is very critical. .. The steamer Comptont Capt. W. A. Sanders, went to the wreck yesterday morning but could get at no conve nient distance to pull upon the boat. He proceeded at once on his regular run to Little River, S. C, but will re turn to day and make a closer exam ination of the condition of the wreck and her location with regard to the channel. This will be done on low tide when tbe vessel is almost entirely out of water. When this is done, the dis position of the ' wreck will be deter mined upon. The Sedbright was built in 1880, at Oceanport. New Jersey, and is 72 feet long, 15.9 feet in breadth and 4.4 feet deep., She has a gross tonnage of 33 and a net tonnage of 19. She has with stood many a storm and was regarded as one of tbe hardiest little crafts on the Cape Fear. . DEATH OP A GOOD WOMAN. Mrs. Sosao Elizabeth Gilbert Passed Awsy Yesterdsy at Advanced Age. Numerous friends, in .Wilmington and elsewhere learned yesterday with sincere sorrow of the death of Mrs. Susan Elizabeth Gilbert relict of the late Cspt Henry D. Gilbert, which occurred at 11:45 . O'clock the same forenoon at her home, No. 107 South Fifth street. ' Mrs. Gilbert had been in feeble health for some time, but not until the day before the death was her con dition considered . dangerous. She auietly passed away with members of the family around her and carrying with her to the grave the rich heritage of a sweet Christian life. She was born in Wilmington and had lived here throughout her advanced age of eighty years. She early identified her self with the Christian people of the city and was at the time of her death a consistent member of Grace Metho dist Church. Deceased is survived by three daugh ters, all of whom have the sincerest sympathy of a host of friends. They are Mrs. Annie E. Bowden, Mrs. H. M. Foard and Mrs. W. J. Kirkham, all of this city. The funeral will be conducted at 4 o'clock this afternoon from the late residence with interment in Oakdale Cemetery. COAST LINE OBSERVANCE. All Business Suspended for Pive Minutes Yesterday in President's Honor. For five minutes yesterday every department all over the great Atlan tic Coast Line system ceased work out of respect to the memory of the late President McKinley.
