uprvmr Court. :
Criminal court convened until noon to
day for the coLsideration of business not
requiring a jury, and the most important
work was the sentencing ot liillv Mc
Daniel and Henry Webb, the colored bovs
who were convicted Inst week of the
murder of Charlie Erwin.
About 11:30 Judge Jones commanded
absolute silence in the court room. A
very unusual scene was ubout to be en
acted, and the Judge showed in his luce
a full appreciation of the solemnity of the
occasion. there was a crowd in ine
court room and all turned their hcuds
from Judge to prisoners and watched
the proceedings interestedly.
Solicitor bug. D. Carter, rising, asked
the judgment ot the court in case 137,
against McDnniil and Webb.
Clerk Young made formal proclama
tion, enjoining the crowd to keep silence
upon pain of imprisonment.

Judge's qui'st Urn il he had any reasons
why sentence should not tie pronounced
upon him, McDanicl said sometuing that
sounded line lam prepared to inc.
Attorney Henry It. Stevens answered
that there were no reasons. Then n Ige
onis began the sentence:
It is now mv melancholy duty, lie
said, "to pronounce sentence. 1 will not
lecture you; that is not for me to do. It
you want consolation or comfort you
can get it Irom men more capable of giv
ing it than 1 am.
The ludgmciit ot the court he tucn de
liveredthat McDaniel should be taken
in charge by ohn A. Urookshire, sherill
of Buncombe county, to be salely kept in
the common ) ul until Friday, January
11,181)5, on which day, between the
hours of 1- in. and li p. ill. he should be
taken thence to the place of execution
'and there hanged bv the neck until you
are dead, dead, dead. And may the Lord
have mercy on your soul.
Henry Webb wus told to stand up,
and when asked il he had tiny reasons
why sentence should not be pronounced,
began in a tremulous voice, while he ap
peared about to weep, by saying he was
not guilty ol the crime with which lie
was charged, and lie would like to nave
a new chance lor his lile. "1 did nut
know," lie pleaded, "that he ErwinJ
was going to be killed, and it's awlui
hard to have to (lie I.t soimtmg 1
didn't do

ei's attorneys, then made a plea lor anew I

Webb was not guilty and could secure a
new trial, no one would be gladder than
he. Mr. Webb thought the new trial
would never be granted unless Judge
lones granted it. The lir'gc said il any
new important evidence could be gath
ered he would consider the iUtsti jn ol
granting a new trial, but could not take
the pnsouer a declarations as iheomy
reason lor granting it. lie dually 1
elined a new trial, nnd Webb stood up to
rcccne hw sentence, w hich was similar
to that ol McDaniel. Webb beard Ins
sentence with urms folded,
The crowd started to disperse but
stopped as Judge Jones said : "Wait a
a minute. I want to say a lew wokij io
the young men who have lit, ml this trial
and the sentenev. Let it have some
effect on tou. Yuiibovsvthi aic ad
dicted to whiskey and last women, tor

Kai.i;igii, N. C, Nov. 3 A telegram
received here today says ex-Congressman
Kitchin and the entire Populist ticket in
Halifax have withdrawn nnd that
Kitchin will support the regular Demo
cratic ticket in Halifax. He repeatedly
stated during the campaign that he
would support the Democratic State
ticket. His act was not unexpected by
the Democrats.
In an interview tonight Chairman Pou
said evidences were strong ol a breaking-
down of fusion; (that respectable Pop
ulists arc coming down from the ticket
in various counties; that some K publi
cans are coming down in each county.
and that in lohnson countv only one
man, white or colored, could be found to
icknowlcnge that he would vote tor the
lull lusion ticket. He says positively
that the Democrats will carry Wake
county.
There was a great gathering ot Demo
crats at Morgauton Saturday, one ot
the largest during the entire campaign

Nuw York, Nov. 5. All eyeB are upon
the Empire State. With every condition
favoring u sweeping Republican victory
one mouth ago David B. Hill has thrown
hiinsell into the breach and attempted to
stop the tide.
He has made a campaign that will be
memorable for vears to come. He un
loubtedly greatly diminished the ava
lanche of votes w hich wus going to the
lion. Levi P. Morton.
Whether he has changed the tide or
not will be known Tuesday night
Should he win, his untiring fight for
Democracy has raised him in the estima
tion of most people, irrespective of party.
1 he bhrpardites and anti-Hill men
have kept Everett P. Wheeler in the raci
hut he niil draw only a tew thousand
voters and his candidacy is not expected
to c licet the result.
The betting is in fuvor of Morton at
odds of 10 to 7, and many heavy wngcrs
have been rod that Morton s plurality
will exceed .'3,000
The Democratic managers declare
themselves satisfied that Hill will be
elected. Claims of a 10,000 or 20,001)
plurality are made nnd the enthusiastic
receptions given the Senator are pointed
out as ccrtuiu indications all over the
State.
