Ie spurned the staum-nt. and said it .-.'! Mild be beneath counsel. to make such i i larations. " - He reveiewed much of the evidence and began reciting celebrated cuse here persons were convicted on cir- unistantial evidence, when tha: line of argument was objected to. By consent the doors were thrown open for both i.1es and the speaker continued his nar rative. Mr. Leary spoke, all tbld, nearly two and a half hours. -Mr. Haywood Sawyer for. the prose cution followed. He said he would imr seek to convict an inno.cent man. i cr would the State of North Carolina which lie represented in part, stain tier fair escutcheon with the blood of :i blameless citizen. llo said the State contended that murder had been done and -that Jim WiSox dil it.

That's the sort bf men who carry weapons and make midnight assassins men like l)ur rant in California, who met death smil ingly; like Cluverius in Richmond, the slayer of Lillian Madison; like the mur derer of McKinley. "Such men have got the stuff in them to commit hellish deeds and ihe same stuff sustains them to the grave. It comes from hell and to hell it goes lack with them." The lawyer made calculations and fig ured th?jl there was twenty minutes un accounted for. He said Cluverius was hanged when ho had accounted for his time,' all but six minutes.

"I see before me men wbo have girls budding into womanhood, sweet wives and lovely sisters. I will tell you if the women of Norm Carolina cannot be protected we had best burn the law Looks, tear down the jails ami court houses and dissolve the Legislature and then go back to barbarism.' The orator read several verses from different parts of the Iiible and said: "In the name of God and the names of these wives, sisters, mothers and daughters, I ask you not to let the guilty escape. I ardc you under your oaths to bring in a verdict that will put Jim Wilcox to death." The speaker here painted a pathetie picture of sorrow in the Cropsey home. Tpe (Misses Cropsey began weeping. He turned to them and said with pathos: "Weep on: we mingle our tears with yours; 'we echo your sighs." The speaker alno expressed sympathy (Ccontinned on '2ml page.) Priehds of Appalachian Park Are Enthusiastic Congressmun Moody Thinks Ten Million Will Be Appropriated Bf THQ.TIAS J. PECB Washington, M"arch 1J. Special., The merits of the Appalachian Park bill wire presented in an admirable manner today before the House Committee on Agriculture, and the friends of the measure, which means so much to North Carolina and the South, are enthutsi astic tonight. Congressmen Kluttz and Moody, who appealed before the com mittee in behalf of ihe State with a large and enthusiastic "delegation, of representative citizens are highly elated over the result. --Congressman Moody said tonight. "I believe we will get ten million for the Park, wnich will in sure the control of four million acres of mountain territory."' No measure was ever more admirably presented to Congress. The advantages to be derived by the South and the na tion from the establishment of this Park were strongly and clearly pre served. Prof. J. A. Holmes, the State Geologist, led off in the presentation. Before him was . a planter paris map in colors and indentures, showing in a striking way the timbered and clear sections of the mountain sections to gether with the streams and railroads. This map was attractively framed, be ing about eight feet in length and four feet in width. Others who addressed the committee were Congressman Prown low of Tennessee. Prof. W. J. Meilee, the government Ethnologist, Congress men 'I.attimer of South Carolina. Moody an.; Rhea of Virginia, Dr. C I. Amb ler of Asheville, George Pinchot, the government director of forestry, Chas. Sejmour, a Knoxville, Tenn., lawyer. At the conclusion of the hearing which lasted nearly two hours the bill was referred to the sub-committe on Appro priations which consist of Chairman Wadsworth of New i'ork, Henry of Connecticut, ' Connell of Pennsylvania, Williams of Mississippi. Allen of Ken tucky, and Flynn of Oklahoma. .Mr. Scott of Arkansas suggested that tlie committee might not be ready and he did not think the foib-connnittce should be pushed. Mr. Scott disclaim ed any such intention and remarked that he only desired that tlie commit tee report so soon as it reached a con clusion. Congressman Moody faid Chairman Wadsworth informed him before leaving Washington that he wanted the commit teo to proceed - a ith the consideration of the bill with ail dispatch. He stated moreover lha: Mr. Wadsworth. desired it known that he favored the bill. U'il li.'ins of Connecticut who presided at t day's meetingi of the committee and Allen of Keintucky stated that they were not prepared to say how they REBELS DEFEAT IMPERIAL TROOPS '. " .

In the Supreme Court, fitting en Jianc today, an opinion was handed down .declaring that Courts of -Equity have.no power to enjoin labor organizations from en forcing boycotts on corporations. The opinion, rendered by Judge bwwood, affirmed the judgment of a lower court, winch Jiad refused rlie applicadon or tliei Marx and Haas Jeans Clothing Com-j l pany of St. Louis for an injunction to! restrain Anthony Y atson and other ot-j fleets of a local Knights of Labor organ-t ization and the branch of the United!

Judge Yalliai who heard the case originally Avhen on the circuit bench look no . part in hearing the appeal. The opinion handed down by the Su preme Court today xays: "If the labor unions of the State are not permitted to tell the story of their wrongs, or their supposed wrongs, by word of mouth or with pen ami print, and. to endeavor-to get other person to 'jtmni l.i- .ill lil ii)DiHi iii wa il in UirUI IF,! -.4 11 M UV l ... V . . v curing redress of such wrongs, - what becomes of free speech?" would vote on the bill. Ii is understood that William is very favorable to "it. Williams of Mississippi, who has been disposed to oppose tke measure, is now a strong advocate of its passage. At the hearing today all the. speakers Urged the importance of appropriating ten millions instead of live million dol lurr. for the purchase of the laud. This idea was strongly impressed on the committee. The projection of the farm lands and the water poweivs in the South Atlantic States by the preserva tion of the mountain forests was the theme of Professor Holmes' talk. He had perfect knowledge of his subject and answered a volley of questions fired by Graff of Illinois, Henry of Con necticut, and others. He showed that the streams which ha ve their sources if North Carolina. Virginia and Ten nessee have wrought untold -destruction in half dozen Southern' States by rea son of the removal of the mountain for ests, lie said from one-fifth to one eighth of the corn lands iu Virginia, the Carolinas, Alabama. Tennessee and Mississippi are affected, which is ap proximately an area of fifty thousand square miles. The Catawba river had damaged farm lands a million and a half in the past twelve 'mouths. He showed that it wan a national question by rea son of the fact that streams did most damage in States where they did not derive their origin. He pointed out the damage done to the water powers of the South tha-t are rapidly being developed by manufacturing interests. The dam age by Hoods in the last two years he estimated at twenty millions in ihe States mentioned. Congressman Brownlow said the foods were th result of the devastation of the mountain . forests. For fifteen years he -had never known of floods and the bottom lands in his district were con sidered as good as' government bonds. The advent cf lumbermen from the west had wrought the change and now these bottom lands had been abandoned and are worthless. The Joss in his district; last year was five millions alone. i Professor McC5b.ee gave a scientific explanation of the manner ' in which forest destruction creates rivulets and Hoods and washes away mountain ter ritory. "If," he declared in emphatic voice, "the destruction of the forest goes on for twenty years more, Brownlow will, have no district' "How about the Ninth district my qwuV"' asked Mr. Moody. '"Yours will be swept away likewise and the land will be worthless and un inhabitable. The present fertile hiils will be "rocks, like they are Ui the west." Professor MeGhee pointed out that the purchase of the park would be profit able to the 'government.. He said the ripe timber - could be cut away so as to more than pay for the invest men f.. lie said that the Appalachian Mountain region ' was the gathering, ground :'"i more rivers than any mountains in ?hi country. He declared that they were the best forested mountains on the globe. The question of acquiring ownership (Continued on -Second Page. I . 1 i. WIDE' LATITUDE IN THE HOUSE : . ... ; ... .

Mr. Burgess of Texas declared that the people of the country received more real substantial benefit from the ivonev appropriated in the river and harbor bill than from that in any other hill acted - upon by Congress.

N. C. j Baltimore, March 19. The underwrit ing syndicate for the coal and railroad ideal of the I'nion Trust Company was today completed and the amount largely over subscribed. This .syndicate is for $2,?.00.(M; It secures large tracts of coal lands upwards of 100,0(0 acre in southwest Virginia, and will build the Virginia ' & Southwestern and Ohio Uiver & Charleston Railroads. These flines will form a short route from the coal tieids of Wise county to IJncoliuon. N. C. From the latter jdace they will run over-tle Seabo;ird . . i Air, . J ane to Southport, N. C. where large.eVil piers aul docks will be built j tohandle the ioal and other business.' It is likely that an extension north ward to the Ohio river may also be built, but the present underwriting does not include such a line. President Blaekistone of the Union Trust Com pany has been working on this deal fid several months. NJew York, Philadel phia and Baltimore capitalists are in terested. TO INCREASE DIVIDEND A Number of Rumors in Rail road Circles Baltimore, March 19. The recent ad vance of 10 points in the stocks of both the Atlantic Coast Line of Connecticut and the Atlantic Coast lane Railroad Company has created much comment. There are a number of rumors but au thority for only one which is to the ef fects that the dividend1 on the common stoe kof the Atlantic Coast lane Rail road Company will be increased from '. to 4 per cent. This is expected in Coast Line circles. One report was that the Pennsylvania Railroad would buv the property. This -met a prompt denial from an official source. Another wae that the Atlantic Coast Line of Connecticut would' secure con trol of the Plant System, but this w regarded as impracticable under the strong anti-consolidation laws of Flori da and .Georgia. The probable distribu tion of surplus assets was another ex planation but it is regarded as too early isLnee the last dividend of this sort to expect another one.

Quiet and Effective Work of Senator Simmons Congressman Small Makes lelling Speech and Claimed Close Atten tion Pushing Judge Adams' Claims BY THOJIAS J. PSXCB Washington, March 19 Special. Sen- a tor Simmons has been doing some qitiet ana :euective work m behalf of North Carolina rivers and harbors with indi vidual members of the Senate Com mittee on Com merer-. Stouter Simmons :s working zealously in bshalf.of Mr. Small's proposition for tl: .inland water route and the upper Cape Fear. Theie is no hope for proper recognition ot" the State's interest in tbe House and what ever is done must come through the Senate. Senator Simmons recognizes this and it is believed hi.-; efforts will be attended with results. Congressman Small n-ida a euperb presentation of North Carolina's cause before the Hoaxe today. The pifture that, he painted, of North Carolina's dangerous coast and the necessity for the inland water route was thrilling and nothing has been said iu the House this session that commanded more universal attention. Chairman Burton was one of the closest listeners and every - mem ber of the body gave close attention. His recital of the many wrecks that have occurred off Cape Hatteras in the past ten years and the. loss 'of life .and property was dramatic. The facts were obtained from government statistics and picturesquely presented. They demon strated clearly the need for the inland water route, and made a decided im-jwent to Philadelphia and secured pos pression. Mr. Small will not offer an session of hi son. taking him to Crow ainendment in the House for the survey ells, X. C. where be no wis. The of this route, but will endeavor to get such an amendment , attached to the measure in the Senate. In a verv dizni- tied manner. Congressman Small scored the Hoime committee for its discrimina tion against North Carolina. The speech was one of the best that has been pre sented Tv any of the delegation this yeSr. Later in the day Chairman Burton attempted to reply to Congressmen Bel lamy and Small. His point was that North Carolina had received more ac cording to the steamship "tonnage than some other Southern States. He made Wilmington an especial illustration. He. failed to compare the anion lit of North Carolina's commerce with other Southern Senate Discusses BiH to Protect the President Which Finally Goes Over Without Action Relief for Chicago Post master Washington, March 19. Soon after the Senate convened tod'ay a House bill for the relief of F. E. Coyne, postmas ter of Chicago, was favorably reported by Mr. Mason, chairman of the Com mittee on-Porst Offices and Post Roads and passed. The purpose of the meas ure is to relieve Postmaster Coyne from the loss of $74,t10, the value of stamos stolen by burglars on October 10. 10U1. The Senate then resumed considera tion of the bill for the protection of the addressed the Senate in support of the measure, dealing especially with the legal and constitutional questions in volved. Replying to the argument of Mr. Ba con of Georgia, Mr. Spooner said it did not follow because under the act of Edward III. assassination of the Kiug of England or attempted assassination of the King was treason that the assas sination of the President of the United States was treason. . An assault upon the President, how ever, was a crime against the govern ment and he did not think the govern ment was . disabled by the constitution from punishing it as a crime. By its very nature it was an insiduous assault ( upon tue sovereignty or tne ,nuea States, whatever might be its motive. He declared that if Mr. Bacon's ar guments were crystalized into law "this would be an impotent government, una )le to protect itself against obviour -prunes, endangering our . msinnuous and' obstructing the opcvatioi-s of the government." A legitimate conclusion from the Sen ator's argument, he said, would be that "this is the weakest government under the sky." It is not." It was an evident rignt. of tne govern-, meut of the T'liited States' to protect its own officials from assault or assas sination while engaged in the dis charge of their governmental duties. "If the function .is a federal one." he declared, "if 'it involves the safety or the sovereignly 'of the government, there are' not State lines." He asserted that theie was no time ident Of ine Utiiied-! States was not engaged, in the" perform ance of. his official duties. He. conld perform -hicS duties and exercise his powers anywhere, day or night. An assault upon him therefore was an as- ault nnon the-government Mr. Snoonea said he never would be- lieve in any doctrine that was a denial of the right, of Congress to define as a States, for if he had it would have shown that the State"1 has been dis gracefully treated. Messrs. Small and Bellamy will offer amendments tomor row when a vote will be reached. , Congressman Kluttz left tonight as the guest of the South Carolina Con gressmen for Charleston, -where he will lake in the Exposition. Congressman Pou was invited, but could not go. There are some half dozen Senatoijs and Congressmen in the party and they will return Friday. , Senator Pritchard returned today from North Carolina and thia ifcern.JWOn he went to the White House ia behalf o ex-Ji:dge Adams. lie saw the Presi dent and pushed Judge Adams' claims. Congressmen Kluttz aDd Pou will put in a good word for Judge Adams as a Republican. Postmaster J. W. Mullen of Charlotte has not yet given up hope ancwill lani in Washington tomorrow to see if bo cannot, overcome the opposition o? the Po Office Department. Senator Pritch ard is willing to hear him and will probably present him to the Postmaster Genera!. Inasmuch as President Roose velt sent a formal letter to the Senate withdrawing '-Mullen's nomination, it is not believed here be stands any show whatever for another term. Congressman Claude Kitchin returned from Philadelphia today where he ap peared for a North Carolina young man who -was charged with kidnapping his own child. Samuel B. Gregory, a native of Halifax county, is the young mau and he whs honorably acquitted of the charge. Mr. Gregory came to Washing ton as ex-Congressman Fred Woodard's private secretary and he now holds a position iu the agricultural department. After marrying here domestic I oubles , arose in his family and he separated from his wife. She went to Philade lphia' with the only child, which i i years of age. Recently Mr. Gregory 'charge of kidnapping Avas preferred, but j at the i missed. hearing yesterday it was dis A previous suit for divorce nstituted by Mrs. Gregory-was decided in favor of the husband and the decision yesterday was a complete venict for him. Congressman Claude Kitchin secured a favorable report today on the bill authorizing the Kinston & Carolina Railroad to build a bridge across the Neuse river at Kinston. It will be re ported to the House tomorrow. Congressman Bellamy returned today from Raleigh. Among other arrivels are Riifus Hale and J. A., Nichols of Ashe-vilk-. George M. Lindsay of Snow Hill and Prof. j. A. Holmes, crime the assassination or attempted as sassination of the President or Vice President or a conspiracy to take the life of either. -Hp said that if Presi dent McKinley ..ad been permitted to live, although he might have lingered, Vounded and incapacitated for years, his assailant would' have been puuished by ten years imprisonment. "Regardless," said he, "of the laws of the States. I believe that ruch a crime ought to be punishable by death." Mr. Bailey of Texas remarked that the killing of the President could nrt possibly interrupt the functions of the government and his remark led to a iolloquv with Mr. Hoar involving the fact-that Vice President Roosevelt' wat absent from Washington when Presi dent McKinley was dying. Mr. Teller of Colorado said that white he did not think that the bill would ac complish .much he would vote for it be cause it met a popular sentiment. Mr. Bailey said that no Senator nnij no citizen of the United States had a greater abhorrence of an anarchist than he did. He would go to the utmost l:m it of legislation against the anarchist; and if the bill were'drawn for the pur pose of hounding down anarchists the Senate would present to the country the remarkable spectacle of a uuan'. mous vote for the bill. The bijl went over without action. Mr. Bacon of Georgia introduced a bill fot rhe exclusion and deportation of alien anarchists; and it was referred to the Judiciary Committee after an ex planation that it Wats the same bill which Senator Hill of New York in troduced a couple of years ago. whicb tke Senate then passed and which failei in the House.
