After Statements by Judges Dillard, Dick and G Miner the Court is Closed with the x , Doxology. Special to Stvte Chronicle.) GiiEENsr.ono, N. C-, June 30 To-day has been a grand day tor Greensboro, and one that will ever be remembered. When the vast throng of com pressing people of both sexes as sembled in the court house at ten o'clock to witness the trial of State vs. Scheneks they little expected to see the scene which was soon to be enacted. PEOPLE AGAINST THE SCIIENCKS. Of all the crowd, consisting mainly of the best people of Greens boro, it may be safely said that ex ceedmgly few entertained any sympathy for the Schencks. COUNSEL FOR THE TWO SIDES. The counsel for the Schemes were Col. Boyd, and Messrs. Levi, Scott, Barringer and Settle. Mr. Fife refused to prosecute, but the citizens of Greensboro employed Messrs. Dillard and King. Judge Gilmer and ('apt. Ball represent the State. MAYOII FORMS ANNOUNCEMENT. When Mayor Forbis opened court he stated that by request he would JUDGE GILMER INTERRUPTED. Judge Gilmer next took the floor, and said he, as all . others, were rejoiced to see the grand re conciliation which had just taken place and saw it in the hand of God. His impulse was to sing the doxol ogy. Then several amens were heard, but on a sign from the May or they ceased and Judge Gilmer withdrew the suggestion. He too testified his love for Judge Schenck, and ended by moving that the case be dropped. JUDGE SCHENCK TAKES THE FLOOR. It was now Judge Schenck's turn to take the floor. (jrenerally ' a fluent speaker and a commanding man he arose, and his broken words were scarcely audible; his whole vererable frame .1 1 IaV. x! 1 i suuuk wuii emouon ana nis eyes were filled with tears.

What he had done and said in his weak and impulsive nature he was truly sorry for, and deeply repented his course. Here his emotions over came him, and he broke down com pletely, and took his seat. This was all that was necessary to move the entite crowd. The change of sentiment was complete. Judge Schenck had restored himself in the eyes of the people, and popular in- THE REPUBLICANS TAKE A NON-SUIT In .the Montgomery, Case in Which They Had Charged Fraud. .

Judge Gilmer's motion to enter a writ of nol pros was then discussed by the Mayor. He said he felt that he occupied a most embarrassing position. He was rejoiced at the seene which had just been enacted, but he was a The Republicans are to he Blamed For the Costs Upon the County. Other News. (Special to State Chronicle) Trot, N. C, June 29 After a whole week of voluminous evidence the Republican contestant of the Democratic Register of Deeds takes a non-suit ; upon the intimation of his honor Judge Graves that he should hold that the requirements of the new election law as to regis tration were not unconstitutional. The case goes to the Supreme Court on appeal. This ruling: sustains the action of the canvassing board in rejecting such votes as were not registered in conformity with the law. It is not doubted here that the Democrats would have won the case, even if that instruction had been reversed, as they had attacked 50 other votes on grounds of non residence.

The Prince appeared in the best spirits, and had evidently ! made up his mind to be more Dem ocratic in the future.

No overt act has, however, yet been proved against these peo ple. Russi.n nihilists also have a headquarters in London, where con spiracies are hatched, and the means proved to carry them out. There is a strong under current of sympathy with the nihilists which does not exist for the German an archists, and the latter would do well, if they value their ease, not to provake public attention during the imperial visit.
