They are packing the roadway of iheW.A W. to Raleigh.' . It is estimated that 300 Of the excursion ists were left behind. The Wilmington Star says: A large crowdof "got-leftexcur-sionistsfrom Raleigh assembled at the Front , street depot yesterday morning at- 9:30 and watched the passenger train going to Golds boro. as ft "pulled out. Those who had money anh paid the regularfure, but others: (a) majority) whp had spent all the money they had at Ocean View, looked, with sad eyes, at the departure of the train which would take them to their ' homes if their . Jim Young excursion . j tickets ,.were legal tender. ' But' alas f They had been told by the excursion committee various tales about the hour at which the last section of the mammoth Jim Youngexcursion from Raleigh would leave. It is said by a gentleman that the departures of the different sections were posted at Bonitss' Hotel as follows: "7; 12 and b clock, respectively A great many of the excursionists stated Thursday, soon after arriyal, that the last section would leave this city at 9 o'clock Thursday night. But the manager of the excursion gave orders for the first section to leave at 7:20, the second at 7:45 and the third at 8 o'clock, thereby caus ing a large numper from all sections to be left in the city. Some few had money and paid' their way back on the 9:39 train yesterday morning, while others who had no money, es pecially those from Raleigh (nearly all colored) came back from the de pot cursing Jim Young for deceiv ing them as to the departure of the different sections of the excursion train. They say when they get to Raleigh (if they can get there) that Jim Young will have to refund the money. The railroad authorities, when spoken to in regard to those left be hind, stated that they could do noth- lnglOT tlwin, tts alV they oontraotod to do was to move the excursion train when ordered by the lessees of the car. SLASH IN BAY RATES. The Southern Make Fifty Per Cent Cut on the lew Line. The Norfolk Virginia of yesterday says : very mucn oi a surprise was sprung in transportation circles in this city yesterday when it was an nounced by the management of the Southern railway's new Baltimore and Norfolk Line, the Baltimore, Chesapeake and , Richmond Steam boat Company, that beginning Mon day, ' the 24th instant, tbey would put into effect a tariff which is 50 per cent lower than the cut rate now in effect via the Baltimore Steam Packet Company. The reason as signed for this retaliatory action was that on July 17th ihe Bay Line cut the passenger ras between Baltimore and v Richmod via their James River Line, from $2.50 to $1.00 and the .freight rates froni 25 cents on first-class to 10 cents per 100 pounds,'" with similar reduction on all other classes and commodities. The" Dasseneef rate' announced from ' Norfolk --to Baltimore if $1 or for round trip tickets $1.50. ; - . Close upon the heels of the first surprise, occasioned oy tne new line's retaliation came another,, in the shape of an announcement that the Merchants, and . Miners' Trans portation company, and the York River Line .had' put into effect a simitar :- (reduction between Balti more, Newport News and. Norfolk. Freight tariffs have also been issued by both the Merchants' and Miners' and the Southern's, making a rate of 5 cents per .100 pounds on the three first-class and, 3 cents per 100 pounds oiv tne , remaining 'classes and commodities as between Balti more, Newport News and Norfolk, effective August 24, 1890. . , ' This action on tho part of these lipos operating fl Bay steamers, wilj precipitate a more chontio condition of affairs in Bay tariffs than at pres ent exists. ' ' . ' It is considered more than likely that the Bay Lino will very prompt lymeet the cut, in which case the Tate war will' be indefinitely pro longed, and there is no foreseeing the outcome of the fight 1 ; - However, in case the Bay Line should decline to meet the oppost tions' cut, which is in the range of possibilities, tho bulk of ; the traffic will be thrown tothotwolineswhich have made the cut and the? e being no opponent in the field, a restora tion of rates may "be the result. . Be this as it tnav, however, the battle is on and whatever results may follow they will be interesting. Transportation men are extremely reticent regarding the matter; - The Washington Line people do not think the cut will hurt them, but what action their company will take they are not prepared to say. ,-.-. Mr. E. T. Lamb, the general agent of the Southern railway, and of Its Baltimore and Norfolk line of steam ers, was out of the city yesterday. His chief clerk, however, said that in case of retaliation by the Bay Liuejhe was not prepared to state whdt course his line would follow. A WAIF STATION A Mevement to Establish One in Ral eigh. " ' Correspondence Press-Visitor. We are continually doing some thing for ourdead by erecting costly monuments Over them; it is time to do something Tor the living. Our people have bepn recently startled by the statement that crime is in creasing in North Carolina, at the rate of five per cent, a year. We have peuul institutions; but they are not sufficient; we must dry up.tbe sources of crime. The waifs, the homeless boys and girls, the outcast children of beg gars, these are the sources of vice. If they can be taken in hand, and turned in the rigbtdirection in their early years, there is everyeason to believe good men and women can be made of them. Loose on the streets, they naturally drift down stream. It is not their fault; it is the fault of men and women who could if they would take them out of the current of vice and surround them with wholesome environments and de velope them into useful men and wo men, A "Waif Saving Station" is a ne cessity, if we would do this. The "Waif Saving Circle" of the King's Daughters of Ralegh, in spired by the great need, encour aged by the success of other stations, and filled with the love of God, have determined tfTCSUttrtreh a station in Raleigh. It is the purpose of . these ladies to buy a lot as soon as the funds may be raised. Then they will call on all benevolent people to aid them ;and if they respond This grand work will be established in a few months. On Tuesday evening next this cir cle will give a "Birthday Fete" at Williams' old bookstore on Fayette, ville street. Invitations will be sent out. Admission will be accord ing to age a penny for every year you have lived. It is hoped by this means to raise money enough to buy the plot of land. The guests will be invited to take a ride on the "Elec tric Beauty" during the evening. The Waif Saving Circle. A Corner on Cotton Tlos. The Atlanta Constitution of yes terday says: "The cotton tie trust is doing all in its power to keep a 3orner on the cotton ties and compel the farmers and planters throughout the south to pay the exorbitant prices they demand. Some time ago D. H. Browder & Co., of this city, received, an option of- 100,000 bundles of cotton ties from the Brilliant Tube and Pipe Works, of Brilliant, O., through $Ir. W. D. Webb, of Pittsburg. The price to be paid for the ties was 72 cents a bundle. s . The day before tho mill was to be gin work on the ties the mill sud denly suspended operations, pend ing the resultof a quarrel among the stockholders of the company. The result of the meeting of the stock holders was that the mill was order ed closed, and an assignment made, and 500 workingmen thrown out of employment . ' - . , : J.-- R. Jackson, president of the mills, stated that tjie property of the millas worth $00 to every dollar it owed, and there- was no reason of an assignment to be made.-,"v:"-rv: The prices at which the option on the ties was g'fven was considerably below price at which the trust sells ties, an d the only oonclusion to be drawn from the action of the stock holders is that half of them sold out to the trust and in direct opposition to the wishes of the president of the company and the other stockholders, ordered the mill to be shut down. The populist campaign will be opened at-Wadesboro' on the 29th.

It was one of the few times that all the servants were given aholiday and the burglar, it is thought, knew the Mansion and picked this opportune time. , It was about a quarter often when Mr. Wm. Carr went to his room on the second floor. He had been sit ting on one of the porticos with the ladies and his happening on the second floor was purely .accidental, as he went to see if some lithia water had been put on ice. The room was dark and Mr,, Carr had difficulty in finding witch board to turn on the electrio Rights. While he was .feeling for the switch, he heard a noise in thecubboard, which attracted his attention and he paused in his search. Then it wm that the burglar shot out df the cubbord to an open window and on the roof whlchircles the mansion. Mr. Carr gave the' thief a hasty farewell w,ith a piece of board, which he hurled at him as he leaped through the window. The ladies down stairs had heard the scuffle and were of course alarmed. Mr. Carr hastened down stairs to assure -them that there was no danger. .. A policeman was telephoned for, but on his arrival theifturglar had d topped -from tb poroli.tie ground aojChad. put many,ibiiacks behind him. The burglar 'had been in the house only a short while before his presence had been discovered. He had gone through two suits ' of clothes which he had on the floor, but the search was without reward. On the bureau, however, there was much valuable jewelry which was laying open on a cushion. The room was dark and the burglar failed to detect it. Mr. Carr could not tell whether the intruder was white or colored. The last thing he saw was a pair of white socks as the burglar gave a great leap through the window. "NOT REPUBLICANS."
