2 A Dark Conspiracy Laid Bare in Court. Continuing the report of 'he hearing be fore Chief Justice Walter Claik o« Tues day *n the fit ale Library, in which V. E. Me Bee was held to court in $2,000 bond foT conspiracy with K. S. Finch in ob taining the receivership of the A. and N. C. Railroad, the following was presented, Col. John W. Hinsdale being on the stand as a State witness and the questions being asked by Attorney General Gilmer. Q. "Did Mcßee tell you he represented a pi-rty who owned stock?" A. "I don’t remember whether he did or did not." Then Col. Hinsdale explained that he knew that it required a non-resident stockholder to file a bill in equity in the Federal court, that there were no sugges tions of this to him, but it was implied that the suit should be in the Federal court, and that this was considered pre ferable. He was not able to say wheth er it was Mcßee or Day who spoke of the Federal court, nor could he think of a single reason that was given with re gard to having it there. His first conver sation with Mcßee was on the night of thj 20th and he did not hear him speak oi withdrawing his proposition to lease. Q. "Was the contingency of this suit "based upon any action the Governor night take with regard to leasing the road to Mcßee?” A "Mcßee said he had a proposition belore the Governor and he did not think that Governor Aycock was going to lease in rinvhiwlv to anybody. Q. "Did Mcßee tell you what he was ! geiug to do if the Governor would not lease to him or anybody else?” A. "Mr. Mcßee went over the wnole situation, from the withdrawal of the State’s proxy in September and his not at tending the directors’ meeting in Novem ber. He said the proxy was defeating : the will of a large majority of the pri- ' vato stockholders who favored a lease, ! and if it could not be obtained through ; ‘ the Governor then it should bo fcy some , ’ other way. The object of the suit was | to effect a lease.” | 1 Questioned as to whether he knew that the Governor had announced that he ■; would receive competitive bids up to Sat- ] utday, February 27, he said he did not. > Q. "Did Mcßee tell you of his solici- j tude for the stockholders and the road?" - A. "He said the road ought to be leased j * * * that the will of a Luge majority i of the stockholders was being thwarted by the refusal of the State proxy to go !; into the meeting and there was no way to | effect a lease except through the courts.” j Mr. Hinsdale said he thought Mcßee was representing parties who wanted to make a through line and who would build a road from New Bern by Washington to Edenton and thus give a competitor to , the Atlantic Coast Line. "I thought it would be best to all to lease the road i and this was talked at the conference. He stated in answering questions that j he knew there were parties in Raleigh owning stock in the A. and N. C., but * they had not been consulted, nor was there any suggestion to call them in, though he knew several stockholders ready to co-operate to bring about a lease. He knew of nothing being said of a pioposition to place grievances before the Board of Directors or to consult them or the stockholders, this being because eight or the twelve directors were appointed hy tlie Governor and the Board of Internal Improvements and that these would act with the Governor and end the matter. Q. "Don’t you know at that time that the Governor w r as considering a proposi tion from Mcßee to lea.-e and that propo sitions were pending?” A. "I think so.” Q. "Why did Mcßee bring on the suit then?” A. “Because h.- said he did not believe a lease could be effected through the Governor. That was his conclusion.” Col. Hinsdale stated that Ale-Bee had not said he owned stock in the railroad, j and that until Finch came he did no know j that. That Finch arrived in Raleigh, he thought, on Sunday night, February 21, as he saw' him on Alonday. Here questions asked by the State con cerning conversations between Go!. Hins dale and Finch were objected to, as no connection had been shown between Finch a; d Mcßee, and Mcßee was not present. * The court sustained the objections, say ing that sufficient foundation had not j yet been laid. Col. Hinsdale answering about conclu- : hiins reached on tue night of the 20th • said none had been raehed that night, j everything was then tentative. That Finch j wao mentioned that night, though he did 1 not remember that Mcßee had said he would telegraph for him. He saw Finch and Mcßee together on Monday morning at Capt. Day’s and then the facts in tbc matter were gone over again. He did not ask Finch if he had any stock and no proposal could have been made to enter suit without stock being owned. Q. "Was there a suggestion made that be acquire stock?” A. "Yes, this was later." Q. “Who were present?” A. "Finch, Mcßee ami myself.” Q. “Why was Finch suggested in place of Mcßee?” A. "Finch was a non-resident." Q. “What of Mcßee?" A. "I don’t know. He did live here and I don’t know whether or not he is a resi dent of tha State.” Q. "Do you know how long it was be fore Finch acquired the stock?" A. "On the 23rd.” Q. "Do you recall any suggestion as to the party from whom it could be ac quired?” A. “I think Duncan’s name was men tioned." Q. "Was application made to Dun can?” A. ”1 don’t know.” Q "Did you hear defendant say?” A. "1 don’t remember." Q. "Who prepared the bill?” A. "Capt. Day and myself. Mcßee and Finch were present.” Q. "When did you begin to prepare the bill?” A. “Monday,' February 22.” Q. "Then Finch at that time was uot a stockholder?” A. "He was not.” Q. "FOR WHAT DID lIE PURCHASE THF STOCK?” A. "TO BRING THIS SUIT.” Here the complaint of Finch was pre- £[w«y»- Remember i>he Full „N*me axatavs Rromo Quinine o iVLjfy on every Cur»«C«'linOnoPay,Orip!n 2 * >ox ’ ,3t , sented and Col. Hinsdale said that was the bill. He was asked if it was not true that, in the first draft the number of shares were left blank. He replied that it had. Q. “For what purpose?” A. "Because it was not known what the number would be. FINCH WAS AFTER WARDS TO ACQUIRE THE STOCK FOR TIIF PURPOSE OF BRINGING THE SUIT.” Q. "Have you been paid your fee?” A. "No.” Q “Who obligated to do so?” A. “Finch.” Q. "Did Mr. Mcßee pay you anything?" A. "No.” Q. "Who was it proposed to have the receiver appointed. Who suggested or dbcussed it?” A. "It was suggested and discussed af ter we had gone into the matter and digested the facts.” Q "When?” A. "I can’t tell the day—Monday or Tuesday. The receivership was only an incident to acquire a lease as this would hill rv it iita *• nuiry it up. Q. "Who was suggested as receiver?” A "Mcßee.” Q "When?” A. "Monday or Tuesday.” Q. "By whom?” A. "By Capt. Day.” Q "When and where was the first or der signed?” A. "In. Norfolk, on the 24th.” Q. "When was the bill sworn to?” A. "On the night of the 23rd between 11 and 12 o’clock.” Q. “When was the Receiver ap pointed?” A. "The next day in Norfolk. Q. "Who was present in Norfolk when the order was applied for?” A. "Mcßee and Finch and myself and a l."dy stenographer. It was early in the afternoon, about 2 o'clock. Q. "What became of Mcßee and ; Finch?” A. "They went out. Finch was with me. We went out and got lunch to gether.” Here Col. Hinsdale made a statement. It was that when the bill was prepared and before it was sworn to there was talk of appointing a temporary receiver. “I advised that a receiver be applied for after notice was given,” said Col. Hins dale. Q. "What objection was there, and by whom ?’ A. "I don’t remember. I think it was Mcßee who objected. Don't think it was Fincn. It was finally determined tb pre sent the application to Judge Purnell, and if there would be an order to show cause we were not certain.” Q. "Did Mcßee give any reason?” A. "I don't remember. I thought that while a temporary receiver might be granted it would be the best policy to give notice. There were allegations v, hieh demanded this, but it was thought best not to give notice.” Q "Did you want to give notice?” A- "Why—l suggested it. Capt. Day sided with me, but Mcßee opposed it.” Q. "Can you recall reasons given by | Mcßee?” A. "I can not.” Q "By whom was the order signed? - ' A. "By Judge Purnell in Norfolk.” Q "How did you know lie was there?’ A. "From his people. We just went and 'telephoned. I can't say exactly how we ■ kr-tw he was there. Mcßee, Finch and * J I went to Norfolk.” Q. "Did you know’ an order was not legal signed out of the district?” A "No. I hail not investigated. I told : Judge Purnell in Norfolk. Ha consulted | Judge Waddill and then made the qrder. i He did not think he had the power, but j if uot he could re-aifirm it in North Caro ' lina. On our return. Juuge Purnell I came back a day later and re affirmed it. ; I tad my doubts about signing in Nor- I folk. I w r as not anxious to have the or ! der signed out of the State and Judge I Purnell only did -o after consultation with Judge Waddill. I investigated when ii came hack from Norfolk and found the {weight of tho authoritie> against it." Adjournment was taken for dinner and at 3:30 the sitting was resumed. The State a-keil Col. Hinsdale no further ques : lions, but the defence efioss-examined 1 him, Mr. W. W. Clark said: Q. "Was there ever any suggestion be tween you and Mcßee looking to the im poverishing of the A. and N. C. Rail road?” A. "Non?.” Q. "Was there any suggestion except as to a lease to the highest bidder?” A. "None, except that this could be ob -1 tamed by the suit.” Q "Was there any suggestion that the jh arc should only be to Alc~ce or those { w ith him?” A. “No. Only to lease and to give ; every man a fair chance.” j Col. Hinsdale was recalled and this was ' j asked: j Q. "Would you have goiy. into tTle lit ligation on any other terras except a lease • to the highest bidder?” j A. “No, sir.” I The next witness was Mr. James A. lig erton, Raleigh manager of the Western I : Union Telegraph Company. He was asked about any telegrams . sent by Mcßee, Hinsdale or Day between February 10 and 25 to Finch. He knew of none paid messages, and while some had been sent by Mcßee as dead-head telegrams, he had no record of when or to whom and did not know the contents, and he had access to the records. The originals hail been to Richmond on the lltli and as this was the 15th they had probably been sent to New York. These records were in charge of Supt. Clary, and he had not asked that they be returned to Ral eigh. That Mcßee bid sent messages and had received eight or ten, but these were dead head, and there was no record here. He saw’ one of Mcßee’s telegrams him self, but it was not to Finch. He knew of none from Capt. Day.” Manager Walter Crews, of the Postal Till graph Company, testified that he had made a careful inspection and there were no messages passing through his office to Finch froip Mcßee, Day or Hinsdale, oi to them irom Finch in time named. GOV. AYCOCK TESTIFIES. Covernof C. B. Aycock was next intro duced by the State and was asked to state the information he had relating to the matter before the court. H? said: "Koine time prior to the first bid ior the lease* by Mcßee, W. J. Edwards, of Sanford, had talked to me oi a lease. On? day lie asked to be allowed to introduce to me a prominent railroad man and brought in Mcßee, who said he wanted to It-i.t*?. He talked the matter over with me and I advised him to go to New Bern and look into matters and then submit a IHS NEWS AND OBBKRVBR. TlbßSDif MOBNINU. MAR. D.

It is this lack of exercise in the shut-in-life of the city, com bined with irregu lar eating and in digestible dishes which tend to make the city man the victim of ” stomach trouble.’’ When there is undue fullness af ter eating, with belching, sour ris ings and other dis tressing symptoms, a prompt use of I)r.

In the most extreme cases of disease of the stom ach and other or gans of digestion and nutrition, the persistent use of the ” Discovery” will result in a com plete cure in nine ty-eight cases out of every hundred. , "The praise I would like to give your ‘ Ooldf-n Medical Discovery’ 1 cannot utter ia words or describe with pen," writes James B. Ambrose, of MifHin .Street, Huntingdon, Pa. "I was taken down with what our physicians said was indigestion. I doctored with the best around here and found no relief. I wrote to you and you sent me a question blank to fill out and I did so and you then advised me to use Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.

Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. proposition. Later on he came in with a proposition. Mr. Edwards had talked of building Irora Goldsboro to Sanford ii he leased, and when Mcßee was with him Edwards still taked this. "Later Judge Shepherd came with Mc- Bee and Mcßee said his idea was not to build to Sanford, but from New Bern to I Plymouth, to Washington to Plymouth and to Edenton. Mcßee said Edward was trying to impose on me. That he was not authorized to build to Sanford, but his route to Edenton. He submitted a pi'opositiou. the first on February 6. I kept it under consideration some days, con fined with several genlemen and allied it over. I notified other bidders and then made public a memorandum of the low est bid 3 I would consider. There were bids from the Mills and Finlay son, Mc- Bee, the Raleigh and Pamlico.” "Mcßee said I had set my figures too high, and it could not be done. On the 20th of February he submitted another proposition, in some respects near to my figures. This was just as I was going ! to Greensboro, and on my return I went on Monday, the 22ud to Southern Pines. On the 23rd, before I had given his prop osition consideration, 1 received a letter from him withdrawing his hid, and on the same day the bill of compaint of Finch was filed. On the same day Col. Hins dale and Finch came to see me about seme swamp lands which I toid them were sold. Then Finch said that he wished that 1 would lens? the A. and N. C. Railroad, .-aid it would be best for the private stockholders and the State. There was some objection to the Governor’s statement as Mcßee was not present, but as connection had been shown Governor Aycock continued: "Finch asked me in substance if the private stockholders wanted to lease the road if I would let the State proxy go into flic meeting. I said there was n<> need to call a meeting unti i made up my mind it was a good lease, lor under the charter it was only by the assent of the State and the private stockholders that a lease could be made.” "Col. Hinsdale said ho dill not know that was in the charter. I told him I thought it was, but I have since satisfied my mind that this was in a by-iaw that is in force.” "As Mr. Finch was going out I asked: How much stock have you.” and he re plied: ‘Why I’ve got a good deal.’ This was about 4 or 5 o’clock.” Ak Bee’s letter of withdrawal of his, bid was next introduced anil read. Gll cross-examination Governor Aycock was asked if he recalled saying to Mcßee and Finch that few private stockholders were against the lease. He repli. d that he had, that the stockholders had been willing to lease at % per cent., and on up as offers were made. Q. "Who offered’l 1 per cent?” A. "James Bryan, Charles Bryan, H. L. Finlayson.” Q. "The president of the road, his son and the soliciting agent?” A. “Yes.” Q. "Is Mr. Finlayson rolvent?” A. "I don’t know. I know lie is not a man of large means.” Further questions were asked Governor Aycock about parties proposing to lease. He told ol these, and that the latest of fers had come from other parties, among these tim Atlantic Railroad Company, at, an average of 1 7-10 per cent, a year and the ltalcigh and Pamlico at an average ot o per cent, a year. Tin- Atlantic for aO years, the Raleigh and Pamlico for 50 to 7i» years lease. He replied in the af hi dative when asked if Finlayson was in Hie Atlantic Railroad Company, and also that th? Mills and Finlayson bid had been received before the 27th. the oLte km had made public lor receiving final bids. He said lie did not know’ who was behind -Mills and Finlayson, nor be hind any of the bidders. Col. Hinsdale was recalled and asked if Mcßee had taken charge as receiver. He said he had, under Judge Purnell’s second order, issued at Italeigh in op n court. Mr. F. 11. Busbeo/ summoned as a evil cess, here arose and said as he had not been called he waited to make a state nunt, and it was that lie had had no connection with th ( < affair at all and only knew of it in the papers. That on seeing it he had telegraphed Col.. Andrews if he ha:l any connection with the matter, and that Col. Andrews had replied that neith er he nor the Southern Railway had any thing at all to do with the matter, or had any interest in it." I was surprised that I was subpoenaed anti wood like to know why,” said Mr. Busbee. He was if lie had not had a copy of the complaint in his pocket. "Yes,” lie replied," but it was cut out of a news piper. The Attorney General said that he had issued a subpoeua for Mr. E. C. Duncan, but he was not in town. About the close of the argument Air. Duncan came in. He had Just returned from a visit to east ern Carolina, where he had gone Sunday night, and learning at the depot from Mr. W. C. Alunroe that he was wanted, had hurried to the court. No subpoena had tetri served on him, as he was out of the cty. THE ARGUMENT. The argument was begun by Mr. W. W. Clark, who urged that no conspiracy had been shown and that the prisoner ought ic be discharged. He reviewed the cou d:tlon of the road and argued that Mc» was doing great things tor it, that the State had let it go to ruin. He insisted that all Mcßee was after was to have the load lased and that he had done noth ing wrong. Mr. C. \V. Tilh-tt next spoke vigorous ly, claiming that the Mcßee and Finch business was the most outrageous ever known in the State. He insisted that a conspiracy had been shown and pointed this out in strong terms. He presented various phases of the case in support of his argument. Attorney General Gilmer closed for the State. He read the law of conspiracy, showed how it fitted the ease and applied i< to Mcßee. He showed how in the Finch bill of complaint they had not observed the law, and with earnestness born of his cause spoke of the danger to the State frem such proceedings. In a strong sum ming up he urged that Mcßee be held for court. Ex-Judge \V. S. O’B. Robinson closed for the defendant. He did not argue at length, but applied much jocularity and humor to the case and told jokes that caused the Chief Justice anil everybody to laugh. He said no case had been made and that the prisoner should be dismissed. Chief Justice Clark announced that he found probable cause, and would send the case to tlie next term of Wake crim inal court. He placed the bond of Capt. Mi Pee at $2,000. This was later given by Messrs. M. T. Leach and J. R. Chamber lain, both of Raleigh. Capt. Mcßee will remain here till to moirow for the hearing before Judge Simonton in the Federal Court in the matter of vacating the receivership. Pb'viff Biddle left this morning for New Bern, as his prisoner is now tinder bond to appear here at the next term of the criminal court, which begins on the 28th of this month.
