SOSPEHDED Policeman Lambeth Guilty of Indiscretion UTLEY INSULTED HIM The Offioer Lost His Tamper and Re ented the Ineoit Suspended Intil the Aldermen Meet on April First- This morning Officer Samuel Lam beth was arraigned before Mayor Russ on the charge of being guilty of conduct unbecoming a policeman. The charge was made by Clarence lUley. Mr. J. C. L. Harris was attor ney for the prosecution, but no speeches were made and only three wit nesses were examined besides the de fendant. The witnesses Tor the posecutlon were Clarence Utley, Timothy Mangum and Ben Curtis, the latter being colored. It seems from the prosecution's testi mony that Officer Lambeth found Tim Mangum drunk and disorderly Satur day night and arrested him. Clarence Utley was with Mangum at the time and he began to beg Officer Lambeth not to lock Mangum up. When he saw tbat the officer was determined to do his duty Utley charged Officer Lam beth with telling him to rob a drunkard and divide the spoils. This, of course, made Officer Lambeth very angry and he cursed Utley called him a liar and struck him several times. Tim Mangum testified to the state ment made by the previous witness. Ren Curtis, colored, said that he was present when Officer Lambeth arrested Mangum. Clarence Utley begged Mr. Lambeth not to lock him up and when titld to go away Utley said to Lam beth "That Is all right, you know when you told me to "roll" a drunken man and we would whack up the spoils." Lambeth called a liar and kicked him several times. He also cursed him severely. Officer Lambeth then took the stand nnd In a manly way told a straight forward story about the affair. He said that about two months, ago he was on Wilmington street one night und saw a tramp peddler name King, who had been peddling his wares around town, pretty drunk. Offioer Lambeth told him to go on home that he didn't want to have to lock him up. King started on off and when he got some distance down the street the offi cer said that he saw several boys around him and they were all .mixed up together and he ran to the spot to see what was the matter. He found that King was too drunk to "o home and he carried him to the station. He suspected that the boys were trying to rob the man. Clarence Utley, John I'ike and Abrams were arund the fel low when he went to him. Officer Lam beth said that he afterwards question ed Abrams closely but could ascertain nothing. He had a talk with Utley and that he almost admitted that Abrams was trying to rob the man. However, he could not get enough evi dence to get a warrant on. Last Saturday night. Officer Lam beth said that he arrested Tim Man gum Clarence I'lley was present and made the charge against him as stated by the othei witnesses. Mr. Lumbeth said: "When he made this charge I lost my head," and he acknowledged cursing him and kicking him. Mayor Russ then told Mr. Lambeth that he had made a good officer and performed his duties faithfully and he was very sorry indeed for this occur rence. But an officer should protect people; he cannot commit or provoke an assault. You had your remedy, you ought to nave arrested Utley and brought him to the station house If he interferred with you in the perform ance of your duty. "Officer Conrad re cently took more from young Fann than you were asked to take from Utley and I commended him for his coolness on that occasion." said the Mayor. The Mayor said, "I know that offi ceis are sorely tempted but there is nothing I can do in this matter but sun pend you until the next meeting of the board of aldermen." The next meeting of the board will be held Friday night after next, namely April 1st. Mr. Lambeth has been a diligent of ficer and It is generally thought that be will be reinstated. Mayor Buss says that business is slack now so he will not appoint any temporary policeman in Mr. Lambeth's plac, but will leave the mftte1 open until he board meets. SANCTIFICATION CONVENTION. Tonight will be Inaugurated the big gest Sanctlficatlon meeting ever held n North Carolina. It will take place in the Armory and last through tomor row and Wednesday. Rev. Dr. A. B. Simpson, Rev.

Bherwood Hlggs and Company's Store Thronged All Day by Ladles In specting Latest Fashions. When a reporter visited the hand some store of Sherwood Hlggs and Company this morning he found the spacious building thronged by the ladles of Raleigh who had come to en Joy the grand opening and Inspect the gorgeous array of newly created de signs for the spring and summer of 1898. The show windows were a perfect marvel of beauty. A description is un necessary for few there are In Raleigh who have not gazed admiringly at this beautiful display, which Miss Kitrell's taste has wrought. On entering the store you can hear the exclamations of delight from ladies as they go Into raptures over Taffetas and Satins, plain or shaded, in plaids and stripes, (the most popular of the ribbons) and the Liberty Silks, wrink led or shirred. You will see these on the hats of the fair ones in a few days. The reporter was invited back into the millinery department, where he found Miss Summey, who recently ar rived from New York, and her assist ants. Miss Coppedge, of Baltimore, and Misses Ray, Petty, Jolly, Haynes and Riggan, of Raleigh, showing, what seemed a countlesB throng of ladies, the flowers, Ribbons, plumes and stun ning creations of new millinery which were all greatly admired. Besides the picturesque Sheperdess, the array of French pattern hats and bonnets at today's spring opening in clude "Capacene," which means burnt orange. This hat, made In fancy straws, ribbons and flowers was espe cially admired In the magnificent dis play. Lavender Bhadlng down to purple, brown, yellow and the brighter tlnls of green, are also much in evidence. Black, combined with melon pink a new shade of cerise makes a pleasing combination. Black appears combined with the other colors also, and in many of the hats a touch of black is used to give expression to what would be al most common-place without it. Among the hats was Rutterlly. in green, blue nnd w hite, with cable eonl ed rosettes and spring flowers, with butterflies of many colors flitting about among the rosettes and flowci-s. seem ingly sipping the sweets from this bow er of beauty. A striking Toque has a foundation of burnt Orange braid. A tall effect is se cured by plaited bows of velvet ribbon and roses, the shade of the braid, fill In the back. Tain O'Shanter of real lace finished to the side with a stun ning white plume. An effective creation Is of pink braid, with cable corded rosetles, the brim Is straight witli roses matching the straw In shade, with spangled quills. Inolr- cled by a dazzling Rhinestone buckle. This is a creation of Madam Tosse. and Is a genuine hint from Paris. These are only a very few of the hats which the ladles are today admir ing. Everything else In the establish ment was as thoroughly up-to-dale. The exclamations of delight from the ladles were enough to completely turn the bends of the popular managers an. I employes In this progressive house. Indeed It was hard for the fair visitors to leave. They lingered ami admired the display, purchasing goods and en joying the delicious refreshments scrv- d. Violets were especially beautiful Liinonc. the decorations. RAISING COTTON' S PRICE. (Manufacturers' Record.) The Philadelphia Inquirer believes that the new plan of bonded cotton warehouses as described In the Manu facturers' Record will result In better prices fr cotton. Commenting editor ially upon the plan the Inquirer says: It Is a movement of Importance to both North and South, since It can hardly fall to help establish firmer prices for cotton; and as cotton Is still the chief American product of export, better prices for cotton mean greater wealth in this country, a quicker ob- sorptlon of the American securities held by European capitalists, a prompter es tablishment of American freedom from the dangers of English financial panics. to which our habit of borrowing sub jects this country, often with disastrous results. The bonded ware house will provide the farmer with the means for raising working capital, while It takes away the necessity of breaking the market for cotton as soon as the crop Is ready."

The report will probably bo taken to Wash ington today by Marix. It is possible that there may be some delay. The de cision of the Court is still a matter of surmise.

Washington, March "J. -The confer ences which were held at the White House yesterday, when the President met Speaker Heed and other lenders in both houses of Congress, is recognized as having been of the utmost import ance.

All indications are that there will be a tremendous crowd In Charlotte at the unveiling of the monument to commemorate the Mecklenburg Decla ration of Independence May 20th. Judge Shepherd has just returned from Washington and while there ne was informed by Hod. Adlai Steven -"n, the orator 1 of the occasion, that he will certainly be on hand. Raleigh will be well represented. Among the representatives from this city will be the General L. O'B. Branch of Confederate Veterans, the Knights of Pythias, probably the Governors Guards, most of the State officials ex pect to be present, the members of the Sons of the Revolution and of the So ciety of the Cincinnati, and a host of citizens. The enthusiasm which this event Is causing throughout the State is very gratifying. It Is a manifestation that patriotism is far from dead In th Old North State. North Carolina Is th most patriotic. State in th Union anyway. HE IS DISSATISFIED Chfiiriiian 0nllnll Not Pleased with New Hates MAY CALL SESSION 8' rone Reason to Itellcvo that the Kail road Coniiiiissioa will Icconsider the Induction Made In Passvn ger 1-arM. It is stated by some of the friends of Chairman Caldwell that he is by no means satisfied that the action of the Itailroad Commission in reducing pas senger fares to 2 and 2vi cents per mile Is a good thing for the state under pres ent circumstances. Indeed, when the Commission adjourned they fixed no date for the next session, but subject to the call of the chairman and it is said now that chairman Caldwell may call the Comini.'-s'on l -i-lher either Fri day or next wctk. In the mean time it is probable that the letter from (iovernor Uussell on the lease of the Atlantic and North Carolina Itailroad will he given out. No meeting of the Commission has yet been called. In this connection the Salisbury Sun sn ys : Itailroad Commission It. C. Caldwell, of Statesville, who had Just returned to his home, went back to Knlcigh last night, lb was making a hurried trip the cnpitol city and something im portant may "drap" as a result of tile trip. Mr. Caldwell was seen in passing Ihrough by a Sun man and he talked freely to him. Much of the conversa tion was not for the public but was Ulite interesting. We, however, will loudly betray a confidence In plating that Mr. Caldwell is not satisfied thai he has acted altogether fair in the rul ing reducing the passenger fares and freight rates in the State ami which were alter several hearings dechieii upon on last Thursday. The evidence was all against the commissioners and et they voted the reduction, Mr. Cald ,ell having the deciding vote. The rui ng of the Supremo court in the case f the Nebraska emrnlssloners where imilar conditions prevailed should have settled the uuostion favorable to the roads. Mr. Caldwell's hurried trip to Italeigh was precipitated by an ar ticle in yesterday morning's Charlotte observer stating that the railroads would appeal to court. He telegraphed Mr. Pearson of his intended trip and ex pects him to follow. Mr. Abbott, the oher commissioner lives in Ttaleigh. l'here Is a probability that Mr. Cald well, as Chairman, may call a regular meeting and reconsider the action of Thursday. In case he does, unless a hi-nge comes over him. the public may -xpect the old fares and rales to tic left undisturbed. A I E 1 1 El 1 A N W A N TED.
