When the Sales on Queen Street, Kinston's Cotton Ex
change, and the Busiest Thoroughfare In All Eastern
Carolina, Began Friday Morning Approximately 175
Bales of the Great Staple Were Assembled Along the
Way About $17,500 Worth At One Time Was the
Unusual arid Healthy Reality
No one could Bay at 3 p. Friday, how many bales of cotton
had been sold on the Kintdon Exchange during the day. Some esti
mates put the number at from 100 to 45Q. The weighers were
"swamped" Prices ranged from 16 to 16.40.

"Did you ever see the like?" "We ought to have a pic
ture of this scene," How many bales do you reckon are
on the street now?" were but some of the expressions
which emphasized the interest in what was probably Kin
ston's premier cotton-selling day Friday, when at the
opening of the sales, the planters' wagons and carts, dou
ble file and sometimes three when the traffic officer was
at the other end of the line stretched from a little south
of Blount street to within speaking distance of Monu
ment corner, on Kinston's busy thoroughfare,.Queen,
three blocks of the staple, which is still, and always has
been, "King" in Dixie. "pIC
By actual count, the number of bales just before the sales began
Friday morning, was 113; but Hie counting operation was like trying
to figure out the exact number of chickens in a big brood. It is safe
to say that thirty or forty more bales came while 'the reporler was
making the thiee blocks, and the number at the opening of the market
...tljua raised toJbctwcen-lZl and180v close to-UWOO worth on the mar
ket at one time. Not since KinstOn graced the map has such a scene
been witnessed beforehand its picjiiresqueness produced a general smile
and audible smile of the kind that is not forced. Photographer Coble
was busy before the "excitement" had been in the air very long and
the pictures that he took will make good illustrations for some Kinsfon
publicity of the right sort.

FROM DEM. CH1M1
New Vork, Oct. 5. Vance 'C. Mc
Coirmlfck, chairman of the Democrat
ic National Committee, announced
late today that he had been served
with a summons in a' suit for $50,000
brought against him by Jeremiah A
O'Leary, president of the "American
Truth Society." Mr. McCormick said
he had not been apprised, however,
of the charges upon which the suit
was based.
'Mr. O'Leary, in a statement issued
soon afterward stated that his
purpose in instituting the action was
"to find out first, whether hyphenism,
socalled,' is libellous; and, second,
whether it is inconsistent with Ameri
canism." "Mr. O'Leary said ho tresented a
statement attributed to Mr. McCor
mick criticising him for sending in
"insulting messages" to Presdent
Wilson, ' In that message, Mx. 'O'
Iry criticised the President for "not
enforcing i. American rights against
3reatJ E'ritwn,'. and informed Mr.
Wilson that he would vote for the re
election of -the President ": '

Berlin, Oct. 6. The government is
unimpressed, it ia said, with the sug
gestion of the Von Tirpitzites for a
blockade of English harbors. The
suggestion was made as a substitute
for the "war zone" blockade. There
will be no resumption of unrestricted
submarine warfare, said a hipdi offi

doomed to failure.
No changes of the personnel of the
