Special Star Correspondence.
Raleigh, N. C, Oct. 29. In the
course of his address opening the
twenty-third annual North Carolina
negro fair here at noon to-day, Gov
ernor Aycock made the following sig
nificant reference to the Booker Wash
ington dining episode : "It may not
be improper for me upon this occasion
to express to you the hope that recent
events occurring in the nation may
not unduly excite you and that you
will still remember that your best
friends are those who live in vour
State. What you wish, what you
need, more than recognition by the
President or other people in authority,
is the establishment among yourselves
of a society founded upon culture, in
telligence and virtue and in no wise
dependent upon those of-a different
race. -The law which separates you
from the white people in the State
socially, always has been and always
will be inexorable, and it need
not concern you nor me whether this
law is violated elsewhere, it will never
be violated in the South. Its viola
lation would be to your destruction
as well as to the injury of the whites.
No thoughtful, conservative and up
right Southerner has for your race
aught but but the kindest feeling and
we are willing and anxious to see
you grow into the highest citizenship
or wnicn you are capable, and we are
willing to give our energies and best
thought to aid you in the great work
necessary to make you what you are
capable of, and to assist you in that
evolution of character and of virtue
which tends to the strengthening of
the State. But to do this it is absolu
tely necessary that each race should
remain distinct and have a society of
its own. In&ide of your own race you
can grow as large, as broad, and high
as God permits, with the aid, the sym
pathy and encouragement of your
white neighbors. If you can
equal the white race in achieve
ment, in scholarship, in lit
erature, in art, in industry, and com
merce, you will nnd no generous
minded white man who will stand in
your way, but all of them in the South
will insist that you shall accomplish
this high end without social inter
mingling and this is well for you; it
is well for us; it is necessary for the
peace of your section ; it is essential to
the education of your children that
there should be no misunderstanding
upon this point. I am sure that you
will agree with me in what I have
said and in the spirit of one who is the
governor of the whole people without
regard to race, 1 bid you uod speed
in the great work of upbuilding our
State. I find no better encourage
ment in the friendly co-operation of
the men and women of your race in
the task we have undertaken to do,
that of educating all the children, and
I pray you that in tnis great wort we
Bhall not be retarded by misunder
standing." In replying to Governor Aycock's
address, Rev. C. A. King, D. D., edi
tor of the Advance, a negro paper
published at Durham and pastor of St.
Joseph's A. M. E. church, said among
other things:
"We assure you the negroes oi jn ortn
Carolina understand their places. We
don't want social equality. If casting
my vote would bring it, I wouldn't
cast it The negro is content to eat
his dinner at home. The recent inci
dent to which you refer is known to
but few negroes. The great mass will
never hear of it. We recognize that
the negroes' best friends are in the
South, and we say to those on the out
side, look on, but hands off."
The negro fair is the most creditaDie
thev have ever eriven : exhibits in all
departments being of a high order.
FUNERAL OF ROBERT H. M'KOY.
Will be Conducted This Morning From St.
James' Wilmington Naval Reserves.
This morning at 11 o'clock, from St.
James' Episcopal church, the funeral
of the late Robert H. McKoy will be
held and the interment will be in Oak-
dale cemetery.
The news of his death published in
the city papers yesterday morning
was a source of profound regret to
numerous friends in Wilmington, but
nowhere was it received with more
sadness than with members of Wil
mington Division, Naval Reserves, of
which for several years he was a lieu-
ten ant of the junior grade. In token
of their respect for his memory,
members of the division yesterday
draped their armory in mourning, and
the large company flag was half
masted. Many members of the or
ganization will attend the funeral this
morning
Leaves for Mississippi.
Mr. 8. C. Morton, the popular and

position and will leave this evening

a good place with the Gulf and Ship
Island Railroad Company, a new sys
tern traversing a very fertile country.
Mr. Morton's host of friends in Wil
mington will regret to know of his in
tended departure and will wish for
him every success in his new position.
which will be similar to the one he
has held here and in a line of work
with which he is thoroughly con
versant.

THE GREENWOOD MEETINGS.
All Services Were Well Attended Yester-
day and Much Interest is Being Mani
fested Other Notes.
Growiner interest is attending the
series of revival services being held in
the city by Evangelist Greenwood, of
Boston, and great things are promised
in a religious awakening before the
week is over.
Last night at the First Baptist
Church, the large main auditorium of
the building was filled with people
and a sermon of great power was
preached by Mr. Greenwood from the
text: "Thine Heart is Not Right in
the Sight of God." The speaker was
given strict attention and there was a
manifestation of deep interest. Mr.
Greenwood already has a great hold
upon the people and they are hearing
him with much profit. No "after
meeting" was held, nor will there he
another held until after the regular
service to-night. There were many
inquirers last night, but the evangelist,
according to his own way, had decided
to have no "after service" until this
evening.
The afternoon prayer meeting down
town on Market street from 13:30 to 1
o'clock yesterday was not very largely
attended but was striking in that five
or six persons took part in public
prayer and a number were perceptibly
moved. Several prayed in public for
their first time and the effect was
electrifying. These services will be
held each day at the same hour and
will be entirely informal. One may
go and come as he or she may desire
and all will be cordially welcomed.
The service yesterday afternoon at
3: 30 o'clock was well attended and
consisted more of a Bible exposition
than of a regular meeting. There is
no change in the hours for to-day and
tbe public is asked to co-operate with
Dr. Black well and Mr. Greenwood in
bringing about a great revival in real
ity as well as in name.
People of different denominations,
recognizing the unique character of
Mr. Greenwood's work, and the catho
licity of spirit in which Dr. Blackwell
is directing it, are asking that some
plan be adopted to make the services
still more of a union type, that all the
churches may share in the blessing.
It is to be hoped that this end may be
reached.

THE COUNCIL CASE.
Supreme Court Made Adverse De
cision to Condemned Cumber- ,
land County Rapist.
ERROR IN DEATH WARRANT.
it
Was Discovered at Fayetteville Yester
day Qovernor Aycock Has tbe Ap
pointment of Date for Execu
tion Five Reprieves.
It now appears that Lewis Council,
the negro rapist of Cumberland
county, will hang for his crime despite
herculean efforts to the contrary. His
last respite by Governor Aycock was
until day after to-morrow, November
1st, but now it seems that either from
the discovery of an error in the death
warrant or from a stay of execution by
virtue of a rehearing in the Supreme
Court, secured by ex-Judge E. K.
Bryan, of this city, the negro will not
bang until a date to be named by Gov
ernor Aycock later. The petition to
rehear the case in the Supreme Court
was decided adversely to ihe con
demned man yesterday afternoon, and
the date for the execution left with
Governor Aycock. Judge Bryan has
spent the past two days in Fayetteville
in the interest of ..is client, and the
Fayetteville Observer of yesterday af
ternoon has the following to say of the
error in the death warrant:
A strange error has just been dis
covered in the warrant for the death
of Lewis Council, issued by the Gov
ernor, it was thought that Council
was to be executed on November 1st.
On August 13th last. Sheriff Burns re
ceived a document from the Governor
in the shape of a reprieve and a death
warrant, and it directed the Sheriff to
execute the sentence on Saturday.
November 1st.
The day of the receipt of this docu
ment Sheriff Burns, accompanied by
Father Marion, repaired to Council's
cell and read it to him. The docu
ment was then placed in the safe and
nothing more thought of it until yes
terday when Mr John C. Thomson,
the sheriff's clerk, took it out to look
over it again, in view of the day set
for the execution.
He then discovered that the instru
ment read Saturday, November 1st.
Now, November 1st comes on Friday.
This discovery has left the sheriff in a
quandary, and he has telegraphed the
tacts in tbe case to the Governor.
The stay of execution now amounts
to the fifth respite which has been
granted the negro since his trial in De
cember, 1900, and each one has come
just as final preparations were being
made for the execution. Upon Coun
cil's conviction he was sentenced to
hang on March 5th. The prisonei's
counsel. Col. T. H. Sutton and A. S.
Hall, Esq., took an appeal to the Su
preme Court and this served as a stay
of execution and upon the finding of
no error by the higher court, the Gov
ernor set June 21th as the day upon
which the prisoner should hang. Six
days before the execution would have
taken place another respite came until
July 15th. Four days before tbe exe
cution time again a further respite de
ferred execution until July 22nd.
Three days before the negro would
have hung under the Governor's
second respite, he was respited the
third time until August 12th. The
fourth respite, which came on August
9th, gave the negro until November
1st to live and now two days before
the day for his death the fifth respite
is had.
The following special telegram was
received by the Star last night:
Raleigh, N. C, Oct. 29. The Su
preme Court to-day affirmed the judg
ment of the lower court and refused
to allow a rehearing in the Lewis
Council case from Cumberland, which
means that Council will certainly
hang. The Governor has already
granted four respites during the legal
fight for the negro's life, waged nearly
a year. The cause of the effort for a
rehearing was an affidavit from the
sheriff to the effect that the woman
told him before Council's arrest that
he was not the negro who outraged
her. The statement was made in the
executive office this evening that the
Governor would soon announce the
date of the execution.
In the. case the petition to rehear
was dismissed and the former ruling
affirmed, the Governor to fix the date
of the execution later. Associate Jus
tice Douglas dissented from the
opinion by a majority of the court
Other eastern cases were passed
upon to day as follows : Trimmer vs.
Gorman, from Columbus, error; Smith
vs. Wilmington and Weldon Railroad,
from Sampson, error.
Superintendent Myers Resigned.
Richmond Dispatch, 29th: "Major
E. T. D. Myers, for many years Su
perintendent of the Northern Division
of the Atlantic Coast Line railway,
said last nieht that he had resigned
that position to take effect November
1st, next Friday. Major Myers does
this to eive all his time to the new R.
F. and P. road, which now to all pur
poses extends from Richmond, not
Quantico. as formerlv. but to Wash
ington. Major Myers also said that
there would be no successor to him on
the Coast Line."
Mr. J. C. Blackley,oi Maxton,
N. C, who is pleasantly remembered
here, arrived yesterday to spend a few
days on a business and .pleasure visit.
