A : resolution was offered by Rev. B. W. b'pillinan that all material bearing on the history of the Baptist churches in North Carolina be collected and pre serve. i, and was adopted. Tin- report of the Baptist University was read by Rev. C. B. Justice, who at the conclusion of the report made an? address on the institution. He said tlity did not come to the conven tion t :isk money, but wanted pupils, j He stated that there had been a great increase in the number of pupils en rolled and that the report was very . gratifying. Dr. J. Q.

Mr. Bateman spoke on the sub ject and said .that every child in the state should thank God for the great educational governor of this state. He paid a high tribute to Governor Ay cock and Superintendent Joyner. Rev. Baylus Cade spoke on educa tional work and its progress in Mur phy, and asked the convention to lift a debt of $750 on the Baptist academy there. Nearly the whole amount was pledged in a few moments. This con cluded the morning session and the convention adjourned until 3 o'clock this afternoon. The afternoon session was the most interesting yet held. The question of divorce would be heard. Mr. J. W. cussed. The president announced that the report of the committee on divorces would be heard. Mr. J. W. Bailey responded ing report: and read the follow- '"Whereas, under the operation of the lax divorce laws in our state the num-. ber- of divorces has steadily increased since 1SS3, there being about 1,400 divorces granted during the past year; and "Whereas, the larger part of these divorces were granted on vthe ground of abandonment, thus compelling the attention of all thoughtful people and awakening the concern of religious bo lies, and "Whereas, this convention, repre senting 182,000 white Baptists in this state, conceiving that it owes an ethical obligation to the commonwealth, in the name of righteousness and the welfare of our people we deplore the increase in the divorce evil, an evil that strikes at the foundation of so ciety, religion and the home, and "Whereas, we have the example of our fathers in the right of petition to legislative bodies; therefore, "Resolved, that re appoint a com mittee of five to join with other re ligious bodies in a memorial to the legislature, to the end that the divorce laws shall be so amended as to re strict the grounds of divorce to the one ground approved by our Lord Jeus Christ in Matthew 19:9." Dr. Drane of Edenton, representing the Episcopal D'ocese of North Caro lina, was recognized. He said that his church recognized the strength of the Baptists in North Carolina, and that he came petitioning the convention to eive cuted by Emily and Daniel Pine, pay able to Cassie L. Chadwick, and a mort gage to secure the same." United States District Attorney Sul livan is preparing to begin the work of presenting to the federal grand jury the evidence against Mrs. Chadwick. Late Saturday afternoon he issued sub poenas for the witnesses who are to appear before the grand juy, which has already been drawn. The first of these witnesses is Andrew Carnegie. The others are Robert Lyon, receiver of the bank of Oberiin, and A. B. Spear, cashier of the bank. President Beck with will hot be called personally. His statement to the district attorney and the United States marshal will be sub mitted to the jury. Receiver Lyon, of the Oberiin bank, got to Cleveland Saturday and told Dis trict Attorney Sullivan that he had re ceived Andrew Carnegie's personal state .nent that he never saw Mrs. Chadwick and never heard of her be fore, and that he never signed a note for her. "Mrs. Chadwick told me as I believed then, in the strictest confidence," said Banker Eeckwith in his confession to Marshal Chandler, "'that she was the illegitimate - daughter of Andrew Car negie and that he turned over an im mense fortune to her. I believed all along that she told the truth, and for that reason was . so confident that the debts would be settled." Beckwith further confessed that Mrs. Chadwick had made a promise to him that he (Beckwith) would be made trustea of the $5,000,000 fund which she claimed, and he then be lieved, were good securities and in possession of Iri Reynolds. That Mrs. Chadwick freely used Carnegie illegitimate child yarn in the the ex- planation of her Carnegie notes is evi- aent She told the same story to Iri Reynolds and pledged him to secrecy, just as she did in the case of Banker Beckwith. This is a copy of the so called trust agreement found among the Reynolds securities: "Know 'all men by these presents, that I, Andrew Carnegie, . of New York city, do hereby acknowledge that I (Continued on page two.) iRec memoralize the legisature to enact more stringent divorce lews. . Dr. J. D. Hufham spoke against the adoption of the committee's re port. He said, in part: "I am oppose! to the resolutions, first, because this movement is contrary to the consti tution of the convention. I don't be lieve in the slightes-t approach to the union of church and state. Further, there is more noise about this divorce matter than there is any need of. We are allowing ourselves to become un justly alarmed. A large majority of those divorces reported are among the negroes. Such a step would be con trary to all Baptist doctrine. There is every reason for us to vote this report down. It is lowering our standard and lessening our power." Dr. Hufman was answered by Mr. Bailey and Rev. Baylus Cade. Dr. Cade said in part, that so far as the constitutional question was in volved, there were two kinds of consti tutions; first, limitations upon power, and second, grants of power. The United States constitution was of ths latter kind, and the state constitution the forrr.:r. The Baptist constitutor is not a limitation upon power and they can do anything they wish. The idea that the convention should be pro hibited from expressing itself upon any matter it wanted to was in his opinion the height of absurdity. "There is no doubt of our authority to ask the legislature to enact Jaws that we think are in conformity with the laws of God." The following substitute was then offered by Dr. Jenkins: "Resolved, that we, while unable from religious convictions, to join in a movement with our brethren or other denominations to memoralize the legis lature on the subject of divorce, we most heartily sympathize with them in their opposition to this monstrous c.vil and pledge our continual support to the New Testament teachings on the subject." This was chaeterized by Dr. Cade as saying that we are religiously convinc ed that we ought not to do this, but we are glad that you are doing it. Rev. J. D. Larkin of Henderson said there was a conflict in the interpreta tion of Matthew 19:9; that the other denominations were at sea as to how to instruct their ministers, and that they wanted the Baptists to pull them out of the hole. He said he was op posed to it because it had gotten to ba so that every little question that comes up they wanted the churches to get into it. There has never been a politician favoring the Baptists be cause they are independent. If you will go to the post office jou will sea all the Methodist ministers taking tho Raleigh Post. Why? Because Jose phus Daniels said some things in Go!d3 boro they didn't like, and they are lin ing up. The fight for the Hender son dispensary was won before 10 o'clock. I never mentioned this matter in my pulpit, but went out and worked like a trojan as a citizen. I did not want to bring the Baptist church into a whisky fight. The amendment was lost and the re pent was adopted. The night session was devoted to a discussion of the orphanage homes of the church. Only Fragments Left Ashland, Ky., Dec. 10. Three skiff loads, of nitro-glycerine en route from North Pole, W. Va.. to Marys ville, Ky., exploded at Cliffside Park this fore noon. There were two men in each skiff. Some pieces of flesh and bone were picked up by some boys on the bank, but there is absolutely nothing to be seen where the skiffs were. Great damage was done to property in Ash land, Catlettsburg and Huntington, some buildings having every window broken. The nitro-glycerine was in tended for use in railroad construction near Marysville. The Black Sea Again Russia Appsars to Be Contem plating Sending it to the Far East England's Atti tude Toward the Sub jectInternal Af fairs of the Empire London, Dec. 10. It has become evl- ' dent from the discussion in the Rus sian press for the past ten days in re gard to the Black Sea fleet that Rus sia is preparing for its departure. Agi- j tation of this subject has failed to arouse high resentment in England, which, it might be taken to indicate, that there is no serious opposition to the movement on the part of the Brit ish government. The situation is ex tremely difficult for the English au thorities, as they may at any day be faced with the. fait accompli of the Black Sea fleet being in the Medltter ranean. No amount of verbal protest then would avail anything. Japan, however, will demand decisive action by her ally. It may be in fact assum ed that Japan has already made thia demand in anticipation of Russia's ac tion. The Japanese government is in deed warmly incensed at the fallura of the British authorities to prevent the wholesale supply of coal, arms and ammunition to Russia; from English sources. INTERVENTION TALK Resolutions Presented to the State Department Washington, Dec. 10. A petition for intervention in the Russo-Japanese war in the form of a resolution was presented to Secretary Hay by Rep resentative Bartholdt of Missouri to day. Mr. Bartholdt paid an official visit to the secretary of state, in his capacity as president of the Inter parliamentary Union. The resolution he presented was sent immediately by Dr. Gobat of Berne, Switzerland. At the conference held in St. Louis last summer the secretary, Dr. Gobat, was directed to present a copy of the resolution to each of the. powers signa tory to The Hague protocol in the eastern hemisphere, while Mr. Bar tholdt was directed to present a copy to the United States government. Mr. Bartholdt considered the state depart ment the proper place to present the document, and 'he delivered it to Secretai'y Hay, with explanations. Dr. Gobat has presented the same resolu tion to the twenty other signatory powers. It reads as follows: "I have the honor to bring to your knowledge the following resolution adopted at the twelfth general assem bly of the Inter-parliamentary Union at St. Louis, Mo., September 13th, 1904, to-wit: "The Inter-parliamentary confer ence, - shocked by the horrors of the war which is now being waged in the extreme Orient between two civilized nations, and regretting that the signa tory powers to The Hague treaty have failed to remember the clauses which invite them to. offer tftetr mediation on the outbreak of hostilities, now re quest those signatories to The Hague treaty to intervene, either collectively or individually, between the belliger ents in order to hasten the re-establishment of peace, and direct the inter parliamentary bureau to bring this resolution- to the knowledge of said powers. "In requesting your excellency to take an initiative which not only The Hague treaty, relative to 'the peaceful settlement of international conflicts of July 29, 1899, but the general inter ests cf nations and humanity impose upon the governments of civilized na tions, I remain, Mr. Secretary, with the assurance of my most distinguish ed consideration, the "Inter-Parliamentary Bureau, "DR. GOBAT, National Counsellor." Secretary Hay promised to give the resolution consideration and bring it to the attention of the president. Mr. Bartholdt and Secretary Hay then had a conversation regardmg the possi bility of intervention, but It was of a confidential nature. RAIDED A BANK Bandits Make a Success of It in Illinois Peoria, 111., Dec. 10. Two men en tered the Peoria National Bank shortly before 11 o'clock this morning and held j the teller, cashier and clerks at the point of their revolvers. After secur- ing all the cash that wns in sight on j the counters of the bank, they sprang into a buggy they had hitched outside, and driving through the main business streets of the city, held the crowds at bey with their revolvers and mad a their escape. The two bandits were young men and strangers in the city. One of the j'oung men got out and en- ; tered the bank and was followed soon by his companion. They drew their revolvers and demanded the cash n j sight, and one of the man. vent behind the counter to get the money. Cashier Fleet a Live Topic Nobody expects the immediate recall of the Baltic fleet, but if they loiter for the next few weks everybody may understand what it means. The devel opment of the Russian internal .situation continues to be of the utmost interest. A significant incident of th? current week was the decision of the czar to raise Vice Admiral Avelton, ..ho has been a director in the min istry of marine, to the rank of minis ter. The promotion deprives the Grand Duke Alexis, the commander-in-chief, of the sole control of the navy. The correspondent of the Post at St. Petersburg writes that the inliuence of the liberal leaders will be used during the winter to prevent conflicts between the people and the police and soldier-?. Such struggles are already of daily oc currence and are unavoidable so long as entire communities are destitute and, hungry. But they are the nature of bread riots, the liberal movement being wisely developed along different lines from the physical force party. The press laws have been so relaxed that the refusal of public halls for such meetings is allowed to ba pub lished, and for the first time national opinion is able to realize something of its own significance. The Zemstvos leaders are aware that nothing short of mild disaster can procure the ac- ceptance of their program, but tney know also that their political organi 1 or-trani- aatlon will be too strong- for the execu tive to return to the regime of Iron suppression and secret punishments. They keep the words "constitution" and "parliament" out of their claims, as they would be likely to increase hostility to them, and as-k. Instead, for a Zemskuskob, or federal congress of Zemstvos representatives. Fred Bracken made resistance and was struck over the head with the butt of a revolver in the hands of one of the men and received a serious scalp wound. He was unconscious for some time, but his injuries are not fatal. BIG SNOW STO, M Washington and the East En veloped in White Washington. Dec. 10. An old-fashioned snow storm swooped down upon Washington and vicinity about 11 o'clock last night, and flying' flakes have tilled the air since its advent without intermission. This storm camj from Arkansas and Tennessee, and is hurrying northward to New Englan I with considerable energy. The way it Is predicted the storm will pass over on! the New England coast and lose itself in the vastness of the Atlantic. It is remarked as a curious coinci dence that the present storm and the one of sleet and rain which preceded it several days ago both came from the south, the one from Arkansas and Tennessee, the other from Alabama. The prevaiii:s storm is moving in a northeasterly direction, and will pass away from Washington, leaving fair and colder weather in the wake. The fall of .snow has been heavy here and will be heavy tonight in eastern Penn sylvania and eastern New York. It is, snowing alcn,g the Blue Ridge and as far south as Asheville, N. C. JAMESTOWN'S HOPES Fitzhugh Lee Will Urge an Apprepriation Washington, Dec. 10. General Fitz hugh Lee, who is president of the Jamestown Exposition Company, call ed on the president today and referred to the announcement made that the House sub-committee on industrial arts and expositions had concluded not to recommend an appropriation' toward a regular exposition at James town, but would probably report a substitute providing for some naval display. The president, who had recommended liberal treatment for the exposition in his annual message, is believed to be friendly to the carrying out of what is declared to have been more or less of an agreement that substantial appropriation. General Lee, substitute appropriation. General Lee, however, did not discuss that part of his visit. "The people of Virginia," he said, "do not want any change in their plans as to an exposition. They were 'certainly of the opinion that congress ! would give an appropriation of at 1 least $3,000,000 to the exposition." "We have not given up hope of get ting a suitable appropriation," said General Lee, "and will carry the fight squarely before congress." SIX-DAY RAGE ENDED , Pnmnptinrr Tpami FinkhrH uompejng learns nmbncu Vsry Close Together New York, Dec. 10. The six-day bicycle race ended shortly before 10 o clock tonight. As had been apparent for some time, Root and Dorlon, the pluckj' young Americans, won the race by ten lengths, after most desperate riding at the last stages of the con test. The score at the close of the 142 hours was: Root and Dorlon 2386-6, Vanderstuyft and Steel 2386-6, Samuel sand and Williams 23S6-5, Keegan and Logan Berton 23S6-4, Krebs and Fogler 2386-3, and Gougottz 2386-3, Turville and Mettling 2383-9. The record for a six-day team race is 2633 miles and 3 laps, made by Charles Miller and Frank Waller in 1598. The prizes awarded were as follows: First $1,500, second $1,000, third $640, fourth $400, fifth $350, sixth $240, seventh $100. Money Gone and No Clue Altoona, Pa., Dec. 10. Shortly before noon today, by a bold hold-up, two masked men secured over $2,000, made their escape and left no clue behind them. While scores were passing in the Masonic Temple corridors the two masked men entered the Lehigh Coal Company's office here, knocked the clerk, A. B. Lee, senseless, rifled a satchel containing money intended to pay the miners, gagged and tied the clerk, and then made their escape. Planning a Bear Hunt Asheville, N. C, Dec. 10. J. S. Pen land of Linville Falls, where game abounds, has been notified that the president is planning a bear hunt and that Mr. Roosevelt will be the guest of Judge J. C. Pritchard while in North Carolina. The date of the president's bear hunt has not been fixed, but Penland is getting ready fine sport. for , L prtmn I Ittima R Sentenced " 1 1 Denver. Dec. 10. Four election of ficials of ward five were sentenced to jail by the supreme court today, hav ing been found guilty of permitting fraudulent practice? at the recent elec tion. James P. Mullens was sentenced to nine months imprisonment and $500 fine. The other sentences were lighter. LECTION CUTS N THE The West Will Dominate in the Democratic Organization-Trie East Will Have No Weight at All in Republican Councils-Number of Delegates Reduced BY THOMAS J. PENCE Washington, Dec. 10. Special. An analysis of the vote in the state at the recent election was accompanied by in teresting results that memhers of the Tar Heel colony in Washington have been discussing during the past week. More than any other one thing the fact that the west will dominate the next Democratic state convention has been a fruitful subject of comment. The five western districts will have nearly a hundred majority over the five dis tricts in the east. Equally significant is the fact that representation in the next convention will be greatly de creased, and this fact will not occasion any regret among fhose who had to buck up against the howling mob that met in Greensboro in July. In that convention, which nominated Governor Glenn, there were 1,250 delegates. With the same basis of representation the next convention will have only 855 delegates. This shows the extent in the decrease of the vote in the state under existing conditions. The next Republican state convention will look as though it had been hit by a cyclone, and the east will cut such an insignificant part that its statesmen will soon be relegated to the rear. The Republican basis of representation in the last convention was on 126,000 votes. That was before the amendment went into effect. Next year the election of delegates will be based on the 79,000 votes cast in November. The five east ern congressional districts will have only 225 delegates, while the five west ern districts will have a total of 620. This means the passing of the eastern Republicans as factors in the state con ventions of the party. A handsome gavel, made of dogwood grown on the plantation in Guilford county, where Speaker Cannon was born, was given to Mr. Cannon today. The donor, Mr. John C. Cox of Guil ford, was presented to Speaker Cannon by Representative Dixon of Montana, who was also born near Guilford. The speaker will use the gavel in rapping the House to order Monday. She President Coming South The president told Representative Cooper st Texas today that he would i certainly attend the Rough Riders' re- ' union in San Antonio next spring. Mr. Roosevelt has heretofore expressed doubt as to his abilit to a- t invita. tions to visit the south early in the new year on account of the possibility that congress would be called together in extra session to revise the tariff. Now that the extra session is post poned until fall it is settled that Ir. Roosevelt will go south and that his visit to that section will include a stop at Tuskegee, where Booker Washing ton's school is located. The president, who entertains such a high regard for the negro educator, is desirous of visit- Mo I ll Extra ie .umin jThe President Anxious for Legislation Enlarging the Powers of the Inter-state Commerce Commis sion Opposition Is Strong Washington, Dec. 10. That the presi dent has decided definitely not to call an extra session of congress to meet immediately after the close of the pres ent session was made certain this. morn ing by his declaration to Representa tive Cooper of Texas that he would visit that state sure in the spring. Heretofore -he has said in response to invitations to make a southern trip that he would do so provided there should be no extra session to prevent. His statement to Mr. Cooper removes all question in the matter. If there is to be an extra session for the purpose of considering tariff legislation it will not meet until next fall. To members of the House today who called on him, the president. talked with great frankness and emphasis on the nece5,Sty of immediate legislation to extend the powers ofv the interstate commerce commission and to abolish rebates. - Although it has become the general opinion among the leaders in congress that legislation at this xesslon f con A FIGURE STATE CONVENTIONS ing his school, will endeavor his itinerary. and it is to include said that' I s Tuskegee in Public Building Project The North Carolina dele probably hold a meeting next week to take up for consideration the public building projects that should be pre sented to the Senate and House com mittees for incorporation in the omni bus public building measure. North Carolina is one of the few states that have two members on these committees, Senator Simmons being a member of the Senate committee and Representa tive Thomas of the House committee. With, united action, it is believed that greater results can be accomplished, and. for this reason a meeting of tin entire delegation is desired, so as to effect a harmonious program. Winston-Salem already has an available appropriation, but the peo ple of the twin city desire another location and the sale of the court house is preferred. The Senate last year voted $65,000 for the improvement of the Asheville - public building, but during the past few weeks there has developed a desire to .abandon this project, and urge the appropriation of $150,000 for the erection of a scyparato public building for "court purposes A bill to this effect, introduced this week by Representative Gudger, tvill be pressed before the committee. The plan, it Is said, 'will meet the needs of the city. The only other Important building project is that for Salisbury, which Senator Overman is interested in. - . . . Some of the delegation think ii't the smaller towns in North Carolina should be provided with public buff ings as well as the larger ones. Th?y say that other states get buildings for towns of six and eight thousand population and that North ' Carulin.i should also take advantage of i-'nv prevailing- precedents. Every stato claims more or less consideration In public building measures, and ,ie North Carolina has few large towns it is contended that the state is rela- , tively entitled to buildings for a num ber of small towns. -'The meeting oi the delegation 13 called for the pur pose of presenting the claims of th ' growing towns in the state which ar deserving of buildings that will .cost $25,000 or $30,000.
