Then these two men that were chasing the one in the lead were perhaps 50 yards apart. They slowed down and started to walk. They slowed down as if waiting, for someone, and then this man that was In the lead caught up with the wagon and started to get in the wagon, but it seems that he changed his mind and went around to the side and I -saw him hit the horse or mule, which ever It was and he could not get the mule to go, and he started on up the road.

They brought him up ; and leaned him against the office. I looked down where he was. Afterwards I went out where he was. Q. How did he look? A. He was struggling when they brought him up. I did not understand why he was act ing ho. He was acting as if drunk. Had h'.s hands tied' behind him. If they took him away from, the build ing he- could not sit-up. They would straighten him up, but he would fall again. He breathed hard. Mr. Rowland told them he would suffocate if they did not take him out of the grass. They just had to hold him up. Q. Did you notice his head and body? A. His face was bloody. Q. What part of his face? A. Pret ty near al over. Q. Did you see any signs of blows on the face or head? ".

How long did he remain there? A. 20 minutes or half an hour. Q. What did these men do with him then? A. Took him to the rump and washed the blood off hie face. Q. How did they carry him to the pump? A: I don't remember seeing them take him there. His hands were tied with a leather belt. They, got him to the pump and said they were going to pump cold water on his face. Mr. Rowland told them it would kill him "he was so hot. I think some one took a handkerchief and washed his face. They grabbed him by the hair and forced him to drink w-ater. I don't know whether he drank or not; they held it to his mouth. ! Q. What did they do then? A. Brought him back and put him on the grass In the sunshine. They propped him up. He could sit all right, but he could not hold his head up. The min ute they would let him loose he would fall over in the grass. Seemed like a man perfectly helpless. Had no con-r trol of himself as far as sitting up was concerned. He tried to break the strap he was tied with. Seemed to have strength in his arms. .Q What became of him? A. This man I thing I heard him called Smith drove up and came over there. This insane man knew him and they, talked awhile and he consented to take him' to the asylum. They met a carriage and transferred him from the buggy to the carriage; that was the last I saw Q. Did you know these men? A. At tendants? No. sir. Q. Would you know them now?

Do you live in the city of Ral elgh and have charge of what is known 'as the phosphate works? A. Yes, sir. Q. Where were you Thursday, on the 24th of the. month? A. I was there. .. . Q. Did you know this man Nail? A. No. sir. Q. Did you see him that day? A. I suppose so. Q. State exactly in your "own way iwhat you saw, said and did and what these other people said and did. A. I came from the factory towards the office and found a crowd at the pump. They were washing the blood off a man's face. The man was tied with his arms behind him. He struggled more or less to get away. I had al ready heard that a crazy man 'had 1 gotten away and of course I knew, who ! the prisoner was. His face was pretty 1 nearly washed off when , I first saw him. His shirt was open and torn torn at the side, but the balance of his clothing I thought was all right. He seemed to have a great deal of strength and the attendants were out of breath and their shirts were wet through with perspiration. The first thing I said to them was: "Why don't you go and telephone to Dr. McKee?" and one of them -said it would not do any good to telephones he didn't care. I said. "You are mistaken about that." I t hough't they needed some help. They seemed to object to my telephoning, or rather I wanted them to telephone. I said I would telephone myself, and I did so. I told Dr. McKee that some of his attendants had captured , an es caped inmate and they needed Jielp at once. I went back down-stairs and then the man seemed to be more help less than he was, and I had a great many different conjectures to pass through my mind. I thought- once" he was all right, but feigning :uncon- sciousness probably in order to,; get his hands loose, and directly after, that ,1 thought he had fainted away. - He could not stand up and when he lay down he would turn over on his. back and his arms being behind him he was uncomfortable I suppose, and he would turn over again. They handled him so rough I remonstrated with them. , .It wasn't necessary he was . so helpless and could not get away. Later.on I thought he had possibly fainted and; I thought he would get all right.! ; J saw them take him to the pump and try to get water in him. They jerked his head back. I thought they had him by the hair of his head. They put the water to his mouth, but I don't know whether he drank any or not. I left about -that time and went into the top of the jnill. We were busy that day; From there I saw them put him in the buggy and saw them transfer him to the asylum carriage. . . Q. See any cuts or marks on his person? A. Yes, sir. ,,X .''' Q. Describe it. A. I saw a, mark on the. side of the face close, to . the eye and cheek-bone. asked 'how' it came there and was told it had always the Southern is to operate the eastern been there since" they had known him.' I division of the main line from Haryi Q. Who told you that? A. Some of : man Junction, Tenn., 165 miles, as well the attendajta l. don't know '.whichrJ as forty-seven miles of branch lines. one. I saw a cut in the - top of his head. . . . s- Q. - What was the character of it how long and deep? A. It was, I thought, about four inches Jong, may not have been. It looked rmighty long: to me - and very deep. One of th attendants pulled it open. -I asked them how it grot there. They , said he did . it when he. went through a barbed! wire fence. The reason I asked the, question was, I thought that he had been hit. Q. Was it to . the skull? Pretty close, if not to it.. I did not see the hit on' the back of the head. I under stood there was one there. I did not notice it. I did not-see the cut on. the top until I was going: away. It made me kind of sick and I wanted to get away. Q. -Did you know the name of these attendants? A. No. Q. Did they ' say where the wire fence was? They did not tell. me and I did not ask them, i Q. . Is there a barbed wire fence around there? A. Not that I know of. Q. Anything else you know about it? A. No, excepting , that we talked with the attendants about who he was. I don't remember ' whether they, told his nam or not. They said he was a very desperate, man. That came out when I was talking with them about handling him so rough. One said he came to the asylum from the peniten tiary. Ono said he never had been in the penitentiary. They all agreed he was a desperate man. ' V Q. About how old was he? A. He looked to . me like h$ might be 35 years old. Very large and powerfully built Prof. J. R. Chamberlain Recalled (Examination by, the Coroner.) Q. Give us the statement that you forgot when on .the stand before. A. It was this: I saw when I got back from telephoning Dr. McKee that a change had taken place in the appearance of the patient and he was trembling all over, and at that time I commenced to question the attendants about the bruises on his head.. Q. What did you think when you saw that tremor come over that man? A. I thought a great many things during the time I saw him. At that particu lar time I thought, he had the appear ance to me that he had been hit in the head, as I have always noticed in kill ing anything that it would tremble when about to die. I" thought that the matter was about over with him and I left. I didn't want to stay there any longer. V Henry Morton. v Q. Where do you reside? A. Three hundred and twenty-wo West Jones. Q.

John Mitchell Failed to Arrive The Preliminaries Looking to Forth coming Demand of the United Mine Workers Will Be Arranged Today Mt. Carmel, Pa., Sept. 7. President John Mitchell of the Union Mine Work ers of America and the three district presidents, Messrs. Fahy, Nynchly and Daley, were to have met at Shamokin thlsTa-fternoon to arrange for the hold ing of a convention of anthracite miners in that city to formulate the demands ! to be made upon the opera tors at the expiration of the wage agreement next April. But as: Mr. Mitchell failed to arrive In the city the meeting was postponed until tomorrow. The opnion among the miners' lead ers is that the convention will be held on or about December 12th. It .it. understood, that the demands will not be made known to the pub lic untiL after they have been put to the officers and an expression is se cured from that body as to , whether they -will be granted or not. The plan is to have Mr. Mitchell put the demands to Mr. Baer personally and. have an informal talk with him: Whether Mr.-Baer will consent to this is. of course, problematical, but men who. are close to llm are of the opin ion that he will refuse to meet Mitchell on" the ground that such action on his part, would be an implied recognition of the union to wheih Mr. Baer Is well known to be s'trongly opposed. NEW SOUTHERN ACQUISITION Takes Over Big Slice of the Ten- ; nessee Central Railroad . Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 7.

FEDERAL GRAND JURY May - Find Indictment That Will Cause a Great Sensation Editor Deal's Assailants May Lose Their Jobs Other Special News From Washington By THOMAS J. PENCE Special, Washington, D. Cs Sept. 7. There is much Interest at the depart ment of Justice in tiie grand Jury inves- ; tigation now in progress at Greensboro, though no one in authority will dis cuss the subject in any form. For several days there have been intima tions in Washington to the effect that the district attorney has secured ev idence, which, if it results in an indict ment, -will rival that disclosed in the case of Senator ; Burton of Kansas. If there be any official knowledge of such evidence in Washington, those in possession of it are guarding it close ly. But, as one of the attaches of the department, of . justice remarked to day, "if we had such information it wouldn't get to the newspapers." The question of removing G. , W. Sam' uels and J. E. Hasty, the deputy col lectors serving under Collector Har klns of the western North Carolina intetmal revenue district. who were convicted for the assault upon Editor Deal of Wilkes county, has been plac ed before Commissioner Yerkes of the internal revenue department. That official is out of the city and no action -has yet been taken, but it is pre dicted here that both officials will be rembved from the government ser vice. : ,:' ', , . '-. . The offense of the two deputies was not officially noticed until they were convicted In the state court and then Collector Harkins , forwarded a state ment of the affair to "the department. It la understood that he did not make any recommendation in the matter placing the responsibility with the com missioner of internal revenue. The report that Representative Blackburn came here to secure Assist ant District Attorney Price's official head, is not regarded as entirely prob able. So far asv could be learned Mr. Blackburn did not call at the depart ment of Justice during the day. If he had, he would not have found Mr. Moody, and he could not have well ta-l--en up Mr. Price's case without first consulting the attorney general. It is believed that the department would not, under any circumstances, consider the removal - of Mr. Price, while this investigation is in progress. At least that was the comment of an authority here to whose attention this matter was called. Mr. Morgan H. Beach, until recently" United States attorney for the Dictrict of Columbia, was today appointed as special- assistant to Attorney General Moody to conduct the prosecutions in the cases growing out of the cotton crop conspiracy. The president, the attorney general and the secretary of agriculture realize that as Mr. Beach had handled the cotton cases from the beginning, and was thoroughly con versant with every phase of the situa tion. it would be best - to employ him to conduct , the prosecutions. It is understood" that Mr. Beach upon his ' return from a brief vacation out of the city, will continue his work in the cotton cases without interruption. It was known before he retired from the position of United States attorney for the - District of : Columbia he had not completed his work in the cotton cases, but that the matter in hand was in such shape that it could probably be worked Hip if necessary by the present District Attorney, Mr. Baker, or one of his assistants, "without prejudice to the government's cause. The ma terial already in possession of the gov ernment, it -is claimed, is sufficient . to insure additional indictments against the cotton conspirators. Representative" Slemp, the boss of Virginia Republicans, wants money to run -his campaign; and he also wants speakers. He' was 'in Washington to day looking for both and gaveout an interview-to the effect that the Re publicans are going to carry Virginia this fall.' "MrSlemp is not taken se riously in his capacity as a campaign prophet. " ' ' Consul General Rodgers at Shanghai cables the state departir5nt today as follows: r ' "The general opinion .Ze that the j boycott is practically abandoned here, I at least for the present, and the last reports from other parts of China in- aicate that the situation , in respect to ! the boycott against American goods As , Shanghai was the birthplace of the boycott, .where it is believed to have beeft.X oetered by foreign influenoe in the effort - to stop the growth - of INTIMATION American trade in the orient, this news from Mr. Rodgers Is welcomed at the state department. It is be lieved that Secretary Taff s vstt to Canton and Amoy will also result in much benefit, as he is working under special instructions from the president to do what he can to stop the boy cott, a report from the secretary on this subject is expected to be made by a cable directly to the president at Oyster Bay, and may be given to the public.

A telegram Just received from Itally, Texas, says a negro was arrested there at 5 p. m. He confessed that he raped Mrs. Nor rist near Howard, last Monday.

There is not the least doubt that the rising was long planned, carefully organized and that it is connected with the Searatlst movement the official at Tiflis state that they have unmistakable proof that the revolt has been fanned by the Turkish emissaries and agitators, bearing green standards, and raising in the country the Tartars intend lay ing a regular seige against Baku and Shusshu they have laid many villages in ruins and massacred the Inhabi tants.

Other Revelations New York, Sept. 7. Frederick Crom well, treasurer of the Mutual Life In surance Company, testifying before the Armstrong Insurance commission , at the second hearing today, admitted that he as well as other officers and t trustees of the Mutual, had partici pated in underwriting syndicates which sold bonds to that) institution. The trustees named by Mr. Crom well as having engaged in these trans actions were, besides himself, Rich ard A. McCurdy, president of the company, Geo. G. Haven t and A.. D. Jultiard. All of these men were either members or ex-orncio members of the company sub-committee . of the finance committee with which all. transactions Involving the buying and selling of securities originate. The participations of the Mutual trustees differ from those of the Equit able directors, which have been con demned by the state superintendent of insurance, in that the trustees act ed individually, took their under-, writings through ' outside banking houses instead of from , the managers of the syndicate and never subscribed until after the Mutual Company had been allotted its participation for the company, it was said, also was a. mem ber of syndicates. Mr. Cromwell believed, he said, that there was absolutely no impropriety in ! the trustees "engaging in these trans actions, although It was a" fact that the profits derived from the sale of syndicate securities were divided pro rata among the syndiea.tors. He had thought very seriously over the ques tion and had for a long time refrain ed from going Into the syndicate. The attitude of the Mutual Life toward those syndicates, he " testified, in no way influenced any of the trustees in regard to their personal investments, and no trustee, he acknowledged, had ecer had and direct participation In the underwriting allotted to the com pany. . ' ' ". From Qromwell's testimony it was also shown that trustees of the Mutual Uf e are large stockholders in the in subdiary lost companies and that the Mutual keeps standing - deposits in (Continued on Pago Two.)- . - THE ESTIMATED YIELD IS Work of the Cotton Growers' Convention NINE AND HALF MILLION Condition of Crop Given at T3.3 Per Cent.

Mr. Arm strong favored the proposition, and ir his opening remarks took- Issue with an address of Mr. Brooke last evening! In opposition to the organ. Mr. Brooke's motion that the official organ committee be .given more time was adopted. The committee having in charge the invitation of Waynesville for the asso ciation to visit that city made its re port. The committee recommended that the rnvitattonoXiWaynesville be ac cepted and that the invitation ' t6 visit Toxaway be declined. The reason for declining the Toxaway invitation was lack of time. The cotton men will visit Waynesville tomorrow. Mr. Hyatt of South Carolina moved that the executive committee as ai whole pledge its members to ralsfl $15,000 for the running expenses of tha central office and that each committee man go back home and raise thl money within ninety days.
