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.

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

THE WRIT OF NOL PROS.
Judge Gilmer's motion to enter a
writ of nol pros was then discussed
by the Mayor.

most embarrassing position. He

just been enacted, but he was a

(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 Republicans are to be blam
ed for the costs, &c, of this suit.
The court was called to try these
cases and others, and it was held at
great expense and sacrifice to the
good citizens of th county, it being

London, June 30.- As evidence1
of the popularity of the Prince of
Wales, it may be stated that the
levee held hy the Prince on Satur
day was one of the most brilliant
ever held in Queen Victoria's reign,
and was attended by more than the
usual number of the better class of
nobility. The Prince appeared in
the best spirits, and had evidently
! made up his mind to be more Dem
ocratic in the future. He smiled in
his winning way, and there was an
utter absence of the stolid hater
which the Prince used to wear to
such effect.

London, June 30 The German

There is a strong under current
