Section 6. No duties on imports or ex ports shall after the passage of this act be levied or collected on any arti cles imported from the United States into Porto Rico or from Porto Rico into the United States. LUTHER IN ASHEBOKO Reported as Saying Negroes Arc Bet ter Educated Than Whites. A special to the Raleigh Nes and Observer from Asheboro. under date March 24, says: "The man Luther from Asheville. posing as a true Democrat, spoke to day to a small crowd. His speech was composed of wind, inconsistency, con fusion and contradiction. Among other things he said in Western North Car olina the mass of negroes are better educated than the whites, and better prepared to read and write; that it is at least so In Buncombe. A prominent Republican said: 'I believe he is hired to go around and make these speeches." His speech will not hurt our case here." CASH DRAWER RIFLED.

In this letter be states that I had withdrawn from the race for corporation commissioner, and insisted on the gentleman, who Is a prominent man in my adjofntng cotm ty, giving influence and vote for Mr. Rogers. I desire to say that I have never, for one moment, thought of withdraw ing from this race, but am a live can didate to the finish, but also propose to make a fair and honorable race, and. if defeated, will come back to Buncombe county the same and, if possible, a better Democrat than ever and vote the Democratic ticket straight, as I have always done.

I will be in the thickest of the fight, whether its nominee or not, giving my time and money and what ever ability I have for the accomplish ment of the ends and purposes for which all true white men in North Carolina should strive the adoption of the constitutional amendment. For this, and this alone, is my only candi date. JOHN M. CAMPBELL MISSION SUNDAY SCHOOL. Organized in North Asheville by Mem bers of First- Baptist.

NEW RULE. The Southern railway has recently made a rule which pleases the engin eers and firemen concerned very much On the run of through freights between Asheville and Morristown engines on the "double-header" trains are placed together, instead of bring separated a distance of seven cars. By this ar rangement, which went into effect March 15, the men on the rear engine do not get the full benefit of the cinders from the front engine. as formerly. and com munication between the two engines is easier. Heretofore the engines have been separated because It was not con sidered safe to load a bridge with two engines at the same time, but the bridges have been strengthened and freight trains are required not to make more than eight miles an hour over them.

Transvaal Authorities Reported as Recruiting Actively. GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS AT CAPE TOWN NARROWLY ES CAPE DESTRUCTION BY FIRE SAVE PAPERS. London. March 26. The continued absence of an aggressive movement on the part of the British is best ex plained in a dispatch from Bloemfon tein, dated Sunday and published to day. It says: "The conditions existing in the oc cupied territory render imperative a somewhat prolonged halt at Bloem fonteln. It Is necessary that the effect of. the proclamation have time to make itself felt. It is declared that damage and annoyance to the line of commun ication may be apprehended until the territory behind the advancing forces is rendered absolutely secure. The ac curacy of this view is proved by the fact that the enemy is breaking up into isolated groups such as that which attacked the Guards' officers Friday. t'The adjustment of financial and municipal matters in the Free State is now chiefly occupying the attention of the governor and his legal and financial advisors. The military re gime is being conducted with great smoothness, but recent investigations show that caution must be exercised in dealing with persons apparently loyal." This summary is a probably accu rate explanation of the frequent ap pearance and disappearance of Boers and insurgents, upon which reports are so conflicting and which so puzzle the British military critics. General Methuen appears to be awaiting transportation and, with Colonel Plumer's forces on half ra tions, there now seems little likeli hood of the immediate relief of Mafe king, though neither from this quar ter nor from Lord Roberts or General Buller is there any direct news to day. The government buildings at Cape town narrowly escaped destruction by fire last night. The state papers, after being much damaged, were removed. A Lorenzo Marques special says the Transvaal authorities are recruiting actively and large numbers of French, Dutch and Belgian volunteers are con stantly passing through that place to Join the Boer forces.

This even ing the "Pearl of Sayoy" will be pre sented. The Knoxville Journal and Tribune of March 14 said: "The Spooner Dramatic company be gan its week's engagement at Staub's theater last night with a good house. The play was the 'Pearl of Savoy' and seemed to delight the audience to such an extent that a good week's patron age is expected. "Miss Alice Spooner appeared as Ma rie, -the Pearl of Savoy, and for one so young displayed wonderful talent. She carried a difficult role with pleasing ability and got the largest share of the honors. J. H. Lewis as Lonsolot, her father, and F. E. Spooner as Pier rot, the goat herder. gave her good support.

C0URTMARTIAL FOR ALLEGED INSULT MAJOR KIRKMAN HUNG HIS BLANKET OVER WINDOW OF ARCHBISHOP'S STATEROOM. New York, March 26. The Times says: In a letter written by an army officer in Manila to his parents in Broklyn he says Major Kirkman. United States volunteers, captain in the regulars, has been -courtmartialed for an alleged insult to Archbishop Chapelle, papal delegate to the Phil ippines, during the voyage from San Francisco to Manila. The letter says: "En route to Manila Chapelle was insulted by Kirkman, who was in command of the transport. The ma jor hung his blanket to be aired so It covered the window of the archbish op's stateroom.

BRANDS IT AS A "MALICIOUS LIE" AND HOPES MEASURES WILL BE TAKEN TO IN- VESTIGATE IT. Washington, March 26. Soon after the senate convened Mr. Hanna of Ohio, chairman of the Republican na tional committee, rose to a question of personal privilege. He directed atten tion to an article printed in a Wash ington paper to the effect mat a mem ber of the house had said to a repre sentative of that paper that the Porto Rican tariff bill had been agreed on as a part of a "deal" by which the Re publican campaign committee was to receive a large contribution. Hanna said the interview was one supposed to have been given to a re porter of the paper in question. "I don't believe," said he, "any Republic an member ever made the statement attributed to him." He said the statement carried on its face evidence that it was false. "I hope that measures will be taken to investigate this statement. 1 brand it as a malicious lie." CONDENSED TELEGRAMS.
