FUEL LIST BILL TUCKED By Associated Press. Asheville, June 10.—In an interview given to the Washington correspon dent of The Citizen. Senator Sim mons of North Carolina, declared that he would vote for the Canadian reciprocity pact if the Farmers Free list w'ere added there, toj He denied the printed stxt/*ment in. .a New i’brk pa^er, which polled the senate on reciprocity question, that'he would vote for the treaty as it passed the house. He said: “The New York paper i& misinform ed. “What I said, and what I still say, is that I would still vote for the reciprocity agreement if the Farmers’ Free list is added to it as an amendment. “Tliere is a sj’stematic effort to create the impression that the only sincere and genuine opposition to reci procity comes from the manufactur ers of lumber and of paper. That this is a pretense, is conclusively shown by the fact that the demo crats of the house, admitting that the treay would be hurful to the farmers, passed a Farmers’ Free list to compensate him for this injury. Notwithstanding slanderous state ments to the contrary, I am against reciprocity because of its manifest in justice and wrong to the farmer. It that wrong is measurably remedied by putting the things he buys, as w^ell as the things he sells, upon the free list, as provided for in the free list bill w-hich has passed the house, I will vote for it. Otherwise I can not. ThiS' i^ what I have said all the time.” > Mystery Darker Around Muider Special to The News. High Point, June 10.—The funeral of the late Mrs. Joel Hill, who met death so mysteriously at the home of her mother, Mrs. J. S. Ragsdale at Jamestown, was held at Lexington yestei'day afternoon. A large number of friends from Jamestown and Greensboro attended the service. There seems to be no clues for the sheriff and posse to work with so the search for the supposed burglar has ceased. The family have offered a re ward of $500.00 for the capture of the parties and have Issued circulars des cribing the tragedy. The watch and pocket book which in the excitement were missing were found under the pillow of the deceased’s bed. That noth ing whatever was taken from the house, not even the diamond ring from her finger that the childrens door was closed and none of the nine other peo ple sleeping in the house were harmed or even aroused strongly advances the theory of suicide. The mask very much resembled those shown in a local en tertainment some time ago and it is most probable one could have been in the room. The family refuse to believe other than cold blooded murder, by a burglar and are doing every thing pos sible to clear up the mystery. An Unidentified Man was Shot Twice at B.
