“Yes, sir, there w'ere three, pretty
close and to the west side of a stumi\”
"Did you talk with the accused?”
"Yes, sir.”
The witness then said Beattie had
told him that he assailant fired from
the right of the automobile. Other
winesaes had testified that the man
stood on the left.
Cross-examined by the defense Syd-
nor said he had examined the stump
and tracks but that the tracks miglit
have been made by some of those who
inspected the surroundings.
"Did you examine Beattie’s shoulder
to see if there was any bruise that
might be made by the kick of a gun?”
■ Yes, sir, I did and found no marks,”
said Sydnor.
Mary Alexander.
Mary Alexander, an old negress,
was then called to testify as to the
finding of the gun.
She was dressed in blue calico and
wore a big straw hat. Beattie eyed
her cioseiy and smiled.
•‘Did you find a gun on the railroad
tracks near where Mrs. Beattie was
iiuirdered?"
Yas, sah” said IMandy, “about foa
or five o'clock in the mawnin, after
the murder. I tliought it was a track
walker’s gun picked it up, then let it
lay.”
The gun was handed to her and she
identified it.
She related how she had met T. P.
Pettigrew, a white farmer and had
told him of her find. Cross-examination
followed to show her story.
Jerry Reynolds, a gray-haired ne
gro, was next called. He had picked
up the gun after Mandy had gone, but
soon met Pettigrew and turned it over
to him. The nev'ro held the gun as he
sat in the witness chair and identi
fied it.
.lerry said he had seen no automobile
tracks near the spot where he picked
up the gun. Beattie's story is that he
tore the ^\"eapon from the highway
man's gi'a?p and threw it into the
back part of the automobile from
which it was bounced crossing the
track. The prosecution will attempt to
show that he hurled the weapon from
the car with the hope that it might
be dest’.o.ved by a passing train.
Ir become known here today that
Beattie’s law>ers had received a let
ter from .1. S. Minoi. a contractor of
Louisville. Ky.. who says that two men
whom he can perhaps produce told him
that they were walking along the
■Midlothian turnpike on the night of
July 18 when the> saw a man v.-ith a
gun accost an automobile. Sv.ch tes
timony would tend to support Beattie’s
story of the bearded highwayman, but
from what could be 'earned hero today
the defense places little faith in,the
story. They decline to give out. Mr.
Minor's letter which does not disclose
the names of the men who say they
witnei^sed the incidents preceding the
tragedy.

Tolls of Accident.
Hreaiiing the 'vorld’s distance record
for aeroplane flight is hard w ork, a ad
Harry N. AtwocKl, the new record hold
er. was a tired man when he went to
btd las, night after flying from Castle-
lon. Nevertheless, the young Boston
ian rofif early today and by half-past 8
was at the little clearing on the side
of Hook mountain, where an accident
to his engine forced him to land yes
terday and frustrated his ambition to
complete the flight from St. l.ouis to
^.■ew York in 11 days. Atwood intends
to finish his journey today, if possibie,
but the hour of his s-tart and whether
he would start today at all were in
doubt when an automobile carried
him away from the St. George hotel
this morning. Atwood said that even if
he got his biplane off the ground this
morning he did not intend lo continue
the flight to New York until later
In the day. His main anxiety was to
extricate himself from the pocket
where the exigencies of his plight
forced him to land shortly before noon
yesterday. What little wind there
there was this morning came from the
southwest and was favorable to the
aviator’s purposes. Behind his ma
chine the mountain rose like a wall,
cutting off all hope of escape in that
direction. Before him toward the river
were trees over which he had to fly
before he could reav'^h the open air
spaces. A head wind increased his
chances of making a sharp rise that
would carry him over the trees*and out
of danger. Once beyond the tree bar
rier there were open fields a short dis
tance down the river, w'here lie could
land and wait for a favorable oppor-
timlty to start the last jump of his
long journey later in the day.
It rained here most of the night
and the soft ground under the aero
plane was another handicap to a quick
rise aloft. WTie.n Atwood left the hotel
this morning the rain had stopped, al
though the clouds that hung over Hook
mountain promised anything but sun
shine and f&vorable w^eather for the
millions who were waiting only 24
miles down the river for the aviator to
appear.
Mr. Pettigrew Up.
Mr. Pettigrew, an elderly gray-
when court recooncened. Question
ed by the prosecution he told how
.Terry Reynolds had handed him the
weai>on. He then identified the gun
which he said had been picked up
about four yards from where the road
crosses the railroad track. He recall
ed under' cross-examination having
seen en automobile track on the edge
of the roadway. The defense ques
tioned the witness for some time
along this line in ijrder to show that
it was possible for the gun to have
bounced from the automobile as Hen
ry Beattie claims. There was no
blood on the gun, according to the
witness.

New York, Aug. 25.—That New
York can already fairly claim to be
the largest city in the w’orld Is
shown by a comparison of the cen
sus just completed in London, with
the health departments estimate of
New York’s numbers.
The population of the administra
tive county and city of Jjondon is 4,-
522,628 as compared with 4,983,385,
the population of the administrative
borotighs of New York city on Janu
ary 1. To retain first place, Ixjndon
must include the outlying metropoli
tan police districts, which will give
her more than 7,500,000.
Another significant comparison be
tween the two cities is tlie death rate,
showing that the American metropo
lis is far and away the healthier city.
London’s death rate is given as IIM
while New Y'ork’s is only 13.8.

Washington, D. C., Aug. 25.—The old
home of Jefferson Davis, while ho was
secretary of war, was reiinquislied to
day by the militia division of the war
department, which had occupied the
historical structure since that di
vision was created, several years ago.
The Davis home is one of the land
marks of Washington, standing on the
corner of 18th and G streets.
The new home of tlie militia divi
sion, locatcd at the intersection of
Pennsylvania avenue and 17th streets,
diagonally across from the war de
partment. is also a notable old build
ing. When the citizens of the District
of Columbia exercised the franchi&es

Paris, Aug. 25.—A cabinet council
today approved the course of the
French negotiations with Germany
over the Moroccan dispute and indors
ed instructions to Jules Cambon, the
French ambasador to Germany, as
drawn up by M. de Selves, the minis
ter of foreign affairs, and Ambassador
Cambon after long conferences in
which Premier Caillaux, M. Le Brum,
tile minister of colonies and M. Crup-
pi. the minister of justice, participated.
Instructions to M. Cambon contain,
according to an earlier announcement,
the maximum terms which France will
offer to Germany in order to reach
a settlement.
The ministers entered the cabinet
room at the ministry of the interior
in a spirit of much gravity, for it had
been felt throughout the week that
the decision of the cabinet today would
have a serious import for France.
The session of the council lasted for
two and one-half hours, a portion of
the sitting being occupied with other
matters, relating to finance, the dis
appearance of "Mona Lisa,” Leon
ardo Da Vinci’s masterpiece, from the
Louvre and the abandonment of the
autumn maneuvers in Northern
France, owing to fever among the
troops. The maneuvers, it is prob
able, will be held in another part of
the country.
The cabinet adjourned to meet Aug.
31 at Rambouillet under the presidency
of President Fallieres.

ORIENTAL ACROBATS HELD
AT EMIGRATION STATION.
Hassan Ben All . the producer of
vaudeville acts and importer of for
eign novelties, is having considerable
trouble in entering a troupe of Arab
acrobats to this country. Forty of
these dusky performers arrived on the
steam.ship "Olympic ’ of the White
Star Line on Aug. >€th, tw^enty-four
of the number being engaged for the
coming season at the New York hip
podrome, and the other sixteen for the
Aborn Opera Company’s new produc
tion of "The Bohemian Girl.” The
first diflflculty came w'hen they arrived
at Ellis Island, where the usual blank
had to be filled out for each member
of tlie party. They are all Berbers,
and although the blanks have the
name of nearly every known race or
nationality printed on them, there was
no place on it for the Berbers, tribe
in northern Africa generally erroneous
called Arabs, and there was consid
erable red tape to be overcome before
the blanks cou^d be altered. The next
obstacle, and a more serious one was
the fact that twelve of the acrobats
were under the age required by law,
and these are now held at Ellis Island.
Hassen Ben Ali has appealed to the
bureau of emigration at Washington
to have this restriction waived, and
Milton and Surgent Aborn have sent
their attorney there to make applica
tion for the release of the Berbers.
This is the second troupe of acrobats
Hassen has brought over-for Messrs,
Aborn, the first one, numbering 18,
having been brought to America last
year for their first production of “The
Bohemian Girl.” This operatic offer
ing was so successful that the Aborns
decided to make a duplicate of it, so
there will be two companies present
ing this opera during the coming sea
son, one in the east and the other in
the west, and hence the importation
of the second troupe of sixteen Berber
acrobats.
The Church Club of the Episcopal
church, and many belonging to church
clubs o fother churches heard a splen
did talk last night at Hanna Hall from
Mr. AV. A. Erwin, of Durham. Mr. Er
win is a member of the Episcopal
church, and ardent in service, as well
as giving. He canSe liere at the invi
tation of the club and was the guest
of the club at the Southern Manufac
turers' Club.
Mr. Erwin could not have attained
unto the financial success that has
marked his career, were he not emi
nently practical.
His talk of last evening was prac
tical, simply planned clearly and
strongly put. In the course of an
hour’s address he touched upon many
points of general interest and several
of specific interest to members of his
own church.
In referring to church unity, he ex
pressed liimseif as feeling that there
was a tendency toward church unity.
Mr. Erwin deplores the marriage of
people of different faith. He thinks
if possible, husband and wife should
belong to the same church—they can
serve God better,
Mr. Erwin, who owns large mill in
terests, is enthusiastic over settlement
work. He speaks to his mill people
at Cooleemee today. Last night he
told many interesting things in con
nection with the Sunday school work
at Cooleemee and in his mills at West
Durham.
Mr. Erw’in made a fine impression
all his audience. He is an easy, grace
ful speaker and is as convincing in
church reasoning as he is in affairs of
business and state.

Purcell, Okia., Aug. 25.—Although
the town is quiet now and there is
little or no evidence of any bitter
race feeling over the burning yes
terday of Peter Carter, the negro
who attacked Mrs. Minnie Sprag-
gins, there was a time before the
black was recaptured when it was a
difficult matter to keep the mob
leaders frm lynching every negro in
town.
Carter had been caught but had
escaped. To quiet the more aggres
sive members of the mob the oflfi-
cers told them it was untrue that
Carter had been captured. A little
later three men of his own race'
marched into town leadiog the escap
ed criminal. They were not noticed
until they haa reached the center
of the city.
It was hard for the leaders of the
mob to prevent Carter from being
killed before it was finally decided
what manner of death should be
mated out to him. Everything was
in readiness when the mob reached
the place of execution and in a few'
minutes the flames were leaping up
from the negro’s pyre.

“Champ Clark is rather leery about

of his friends in the house press gal

He is much given to the saying that
he will not discuss a subject that ev
erybody else is discussing.
“Mr. Clark reminds me of a young

“ ‘Of course he eats grapes,’ said
Tom. ‘I saw one climb twenty feet
into a tree to get a bunch of grapes.’
“‘What! A buffalo climb a tree?’
“ ‘Yes.’
“ ‘What do you think of that prop

Atlanta. Aug. 25.—While Governor
Smith vetoed the bill permitting news
papers in Georgia to exchange adver
tising for mileage, on the ground that
the bill did not restrict the exchange
to insure its being made on an honest
basis of value received, it is not be
lieved that the governor, as a matter
of principal, is in favor of any law per
mitting an exchange of advertising for
mileage, no matter how restricted.
The governor w^as an ardent advo
cate of the justice of the complete ab
olition of the free pass evils, and is
inclined to think that any kind of a
bill establishing tlie agreement above
mentioned betw’een newspapers and
railroads would be a step in the wrong
direction.
Governor Smith says, in the course
of his formal veto of the present bill.
“For years we have fought the pass
system fought to stop railroad com
panies and other public service com
panies from granting special privi
leges.
“We know that when they grant spe
cial privileges to a few, in return they
place extra burdens on the many. The
special privileges granted are to make
allies that will prevent that regula
tion and supervision so essential to
the rights of the balance of the people
who deal with these companies.”
