Winston-Salem, Nov. II. Running terrific rato of Biased, a Southslde bound street car, over which tho Uioiortiian had lost control, side vvipcd another car standing on tho Sti'-m bridge, and killed Frank Snidor, a laborer, who was employ ed by a pump company of Lexing ton. After pausing the bridge, tho car dashed into an lie wagon, the properly of C. II. I'luinmer, killed a liorso and wounded tho colored driver, Eugene Adams. Thirteen oilier passengers oa the wild car were injured, some of them serious ly. Ml of them, however, are ex pected to rei over. Tho day w;w damp and rainy and many of tho leaves, falling fr m trees, had accumulated on tho tr.uks. When the car, with its load cf hu man freight, homeward bound after a day's labor, st.uted down tho sleep grade Motoiman B. G. Kelly and Conductor P.. .1. Lea claim they coiil. I not hold the car. Onward, towards tho Salem bridge It rushed, with au ever Increasing momentum. Just us it reached the bridge, the trucks left the rails aud the car swiped into the Winston bound car staudiug on the bridge. Several sec onds of wild excitement followed as the car dashed across the bridgo aud into the Ice wagon. The screams from the wounded and the frighten ed men and women were pitiful. Persons toward the rear of tho car were uiore seriously iujured than those toward the front. A number of the Injured w ere rushed . to hos pitals lu ambulances; every physician In town was summoued to the scene of the wreck, and rendered all the assistance possible to the suffering ones. Tonight six persons are still In tho hospital and it Is hoped, thes -CO le TitW',fcir''oc'Atnoni the more seriously Injured are John Enoch,' John Cawthers, John Orlffln, Raymond Money, Will Rose, Mrs. Fred Myers, of Salem, and Clark Pitts, a lad of 12. Practically all of the injured live In Waughton and Southslde. Frank Snider, the dead man lived three and a halt miles in the country. A peculiar coincidence of the af fair was the presence of the father and mother of the dead man. They were in a buggy on tho bridge, awaiting the passing of the two street cars, and were eye witnesses to the tragic end of their sou. Mr. Snider was en route to his home to spend Sunday after a week's work at Lexington. He was mashed be tween the two cars when the rear platform of the runaway was splin tered. News of the accident spread rapid ly aud a large uunihcr of people riibliod to the scene. It seems a marvel that all the passengers were not Instantly crushed to death.

Tobacco Be Held in Storage Houses Until It Can Be 8old to tho best Advantage, Walnut Cove. Nov. 9. Forty thous-j and pounds of tobacco were the In-' itlal receipts at tho dry pri.ery of i the Stokes County Kainerrs' Union 1 hero which opened for business to- j day, under tho management of Mr.! .1 S,,!.!

So far as la known here, this Is thy firnt union dry pri.ery to be opened in this part of tho state. Letter From R. L. Nunn. Mr Editor: Viil you allow me space In ynar jl. utile paper to explain the poclir.g sv.lem of tobacco to '-ho U'';mo tuouers of your county. Th-j Si-dees Coiuty Dry Prize Co. have at last umpleted their plani and are pooi.pg lots of tobacco. We were theie Itst Friday and was well satisfied with everything we saw. 'tiu fa: mua of Stokes are carrying their tobacco there aud are well satisfied u'th prices on, same. We havo secured the services of a Mr Money of Danville Va.. who has by va allied with the Dry Prize at. thatjlace for tho last five years. AUuf. AvTJ7ot BoutlT Carolina who hat bought tobacco on some of the leading markets In tho State and who is a good Judge of tobacco. Ho Is the grader for the plant. We aie doing business aud solicit the patronage of the Union brethren of Surry. As fast as tobacco is un loaded It Is weighed, graded and pr'ced, and the farmer gets a check for 60 per cent of the market price then and there. We are paying 60 per cent of the market price as fast as the tobacco comes lu aud are using a certificate for the other 40 per cent and no charges are taken out of the 60 per cent paid. Then when tobacco is sold you get the other 40 per cent and what advances we may be ablo to get above tho storing price. Last year the Danville prlzory pool ed tobacco at the market price and a fow days ago they made a sale of most all the tobacco in the plant at a profit of six dollars per hun dred . How is that Brother I'nlon man of Surry, would you not like to receive six dollars per hundred pounds on that last year's crop? You can't do It though, for It Is gone forever and all the profits is gene Into the Insatiable mow of the American Tobacco Co. We may not be ablo to get as large a profit as tho Danville PrUery did but can rest assured it will not be sold at a loss, neither will it be sold at the price It is put in there at. I would like for each local In Surry to send at least one man down here and see for yourselves how everything is managed, and if you will do that I feel assured you will pool a lot of tobacco with us. If yon want to ship tobacco all you will have to do to get hogsheads and to write Mr. J. Spot Taylor, Walnut Cove. N. C, and he will ship at once. if r. John Boles of Stanford Surry county local was there at the open ing of the plant and after he saw how every man got a square deal he told the management there that ha should send all of his 25 barns down there. So I say to you that the best thing to do Is to go and see and be convinced. Bring your tobacco to the pool and stop letting the American Tobacco Co. take it for nothing. With best wishes for the success of the order In Surry. I remain, Yours fraternally, R. L. NUNN.
