nnd Police Lecsville Speaking.
(By V. (1. 11IUGGS.)
Next Saturday tho democratic pri
mary election will bo held in this
county and today the candidates have
gono to Stoney Hill, in New Light
to address tho Voters there.
The campaign last week concluded
with speech making at Locsvillo Sat
urday., Moro than 200 mcli assem
bled in the grove to hoar the candi
dates. Tho fight between tho two
tickets for county! commissioners wax-
ed hot and each side had its friends.
In the senatorship the leading men of
House Creew township were practi
cally a unit for John C. Drewry.
The News nnd Observer Unfair.
"Tho feature of the day was the
charge made by Mr. Bart M. Gatling
. that the News and Observer was un
fdlr and biased in lis reports of tho
debates fnr It never yet has printed the
charges made against the present board
of county commissioners.
When Mr. Gatling rose to Speak tho
Kews and Observer's reporter leaned
bark to light a cigar. "That's right,
smoke your cigar now for I know that
you will not print these facts which
have 'been presented on tho ' stump
throughout this county." Mr. K. E.
Hrltfon, the reporter, retorted that ho
had paid for his cigar and had a right
to smoke It.
Mr. Gatling reiterated that-the News
nnd Observer hud reiwatedly through-
"out this cnnvnss failed to give but one
side of the county commissioners con
tBt. - Mr. Uritton attempted to answer
him, whereupon Mr. Gatling demanded
if the reporter would give Just a quar
ter of a column in his paper next
morning for him to state his true posi
tion and give the facts. Tho.crowa ap
ulnnded the challenge nnd seemed
to
of a paper whose policy he could not
endorse. In closing he told the audl-
ene that his people had lived in Wake
county for 175 years. Ha had been
raised on a farm, worked on a farm
and since ho was 14 years old he had
made more than a living. A consider
able portion of his speech was a review
of his record in the last legislature.
Sir. Drewry on His Record.
Mr. John C. Drewry, candidate for
senator, followed. Like his opponent
ho too had a legislative record which
he was proud of. As a memlier of the
house finance committee In 1003 he had,
after a hard fight against tho railroads,
secured the retention of section 60 in
the revenue act and thereby added
$30,000,000 to tho taxable property, of the
state. Bemuse lie Is an Insurance

correctly represent the people of Woke
county. You might as- well exclude
lawyers, doctors or farmers as a class.
In 1!M)3 he hod secured the passage of
two laws restricting Insurance com
panies and Increasing tho tax on them.
He had ahVays been a temperance man,
voted for the Watts bill in 1903, and
when an alderman here ho had intro
duced an ordinance closing the bars ut
11 o'clock. Like his opponent, Mr.
Drewry said that he too was raised on
a farm and had followed the plow until
ho was 22 years old struggling to make
money with which to educate nimseir,j
Ho was now engaged in farming. "I
tried to faithfully and truly represent
tho people in 1003," said Mr. Drewry,
"and in the senate In 11107 I shall faith
fully represent you and not any special
Interests."
Down With Autos nnd Police.
Candidate W. C. Douglass for the
house made a characteristic speech.
"They say I have too many planks
in my platform," said Mr. Douglass,
"but if you send me to the legislature
I am going to got them enacted into
law or i am going to commit a nuisance
in the state capilol."
"I have groat respect for Governor
Glenn nnd Insurance Commissioner
Young," again asserted the candidate,
"but even thev can't tell me what to
do. I wear no man's collar. They
can't even get a shoe string around my
neck."
In advocating a law to make auto
mobiles stop in tho road, "not only
stop but stop the guts of tho thing"
when a vehicle Is coming, Mr. Douglass

County Attorney U. K. Norris pre
ceded Mr. Gatling in a vigorous speech
in behalf of the present board. When
Mr. Norris read an editorial from The
t italluh Times of last January praising
the present county commissioners foe
the excellent showing they nau inauu
in their annual statement Mr. Gatling
rose and asked "When that editorial

Mr. Norris again criticised tho former
or Green board for publishing the no
tices of the Raleigh and Pamlico Sound
BaltroaU bond, elections at a cost of
$1,31K) to tho county. Mr. Gatling again
interrupted tho Bpenker to ask Mr. Nor
ris, If, as state senator at that time,
he could not have had tho bill charter
ing the' railroad passed in such form as
to have saddled the railroad and not
tho county with the costs of publication,
Mr. Norris replied that he did nut draw

great as it might have been becauso
they inserted tho notice in mora than

' Mr.. Norris referred to tho Itoiesvliie

St. Petersburg, July 1C. Addi
tional details of tho assassination of
General Kozlov of tho headquarters
staff, in the park at Pcterliof on
Saturday, prove bo3rond question
that tho murderer thought ho was
killing Genernl Trcpoff. Tho tragedy
occurred at 9:20 in the evening in
the presenco of several thousand
people who were listening to- tho
music in the Knglish park, below the
grand chateau adjoining the park of
Alexander palaco where the imperial
family and General Trepoft reside.
A young. mftn dressed in the
clothes of a workman seeing General
Kozlov, who rescmblee3 General
Trepoff, gazed long and earnestly at
tho general's face and tben took a
photograph from his pocket to com
pare it with Kozlov's features, as if
to-make sure of his identity. Tho
man then drew a pistol and fired
four shots pointblank at Kozlov, who
fell mortally woundod and died on
the spot. - '
The assassin started to iloe, but
Princo Androiniroff seizod him and
turned him over to tho police who
thronged tha park. Tho . crowd
shouted "lynch him!" but the pris
oner was conducted safely to police
headquarters. When he was search
ed Tropoff's protograph was found
in the assassin's pocket, leaving no
doubt regarding the identity of the
parson ho intended to kill. Tho as
sassin refused to give his namo al
though ho openly avowed that he
was a member of tho social revolu
tionary organization and the police
have not yet been able to find out
his name.
General Kozlov was not involved
in politics. He married a grand
daughter of tho famous field marshal
Count Alexander Suvaroff.

New York, July lfi.-Mrs. William
Thaw of Pittsburg paid a visit to her
son Harry K. Thaw in the Tombs
prison.' today where he is a prisoner
.accused of the murder of Stanford
White. Mrs. Thaw, who arrived from
Kurope Saturday evening and was un
able to visit her son on Sunday, went
to the prison accompanied by Josiah
C. Thaw and A. 1'. l'eabody of Thaw's
counsel.
Mrs. Thaw's arrival at the Tombs
was preceded by that of Harry Thaw's
wife, Evelyn,
The latter upon ascertaining that
Mrs. William Thaw had not yet visited
the Tombs declared that she desired
her husband's mother to have the first
opportunity of seeing the prisoner.
The younger Mrs. Thaw then retired
to the consulting room to await Mrs.
William Thaw's arrival.
lieforo Mrs. William Thaw reached
the. prison her son's now counsel, Clif
ford W'.Uarlidge, called on Francis J.
I.nntry, tho commissioner of correc
tions, and endeavored to make arrange
ments so that Mis. Thaw could meet
her son In the consulting room at the
Tombs Instead of talking with him
through the bars of the cell, but Mr.
Laniry instructed the warden Unit he
could make no exception to the prison
lules in Mrs. Thaw's case.
The mother reached tho prison shortly
before noon. In the meantime a large,
crowd had gathered alxmt tho entrance
to the prison. When her cab stopped
at the door the bystanders pressed tor
ward so closely that the police had diffi
culty in making a lino through them
to permit Mi's. Thaw to pass into the
prison. ".':
Mrs. Thaw was met at tho door by
the prison warden who told her in an
apologetic' way that it would be neces
sary for her to comply with the prison
rule that all visitors miist be searched.
Mrs. Thaw then retired to the rooms
of the Tombs matron where the rule
was compiled with.- The wunien, Josiah
(.'. Thaw nnd Mr. Pen body escorted her
to 'the corridor In' which Harry .Thaw's
cell is located, and then withdrew after
she had thanked them. Mrs; Thaw then
made her way alone to cell No. 2M and
gieeted her son for the first time since
he shot Stanford White,
As Mrs. Thaw reached the cell of her
Son it was seen that her daughter-in-law
-'had left the consulting, room anil
gone to the cell of her husband. When
the '-young wife saw the mother ap
proaching she slowly backed away from
the cell to a spot some fifteen feet
dow n the corridor. There was no sign
of recognition between tho two.
On the.' mother's arrival at tho cell
Keeper John Smith saw that she was
somewhat. .feeble and opened tho door
of Thaw's cell for the purpose of get
ting out the stool from the cell on which
she might sit during the Intorvlow with
her son. The mother not knowing the
rules of the prison upon seeing the
door opened rushed forward to her son.
Iii an instant both her arms were
clasped around tho neck of her son
while he with bent head clasped his
mother to his breast. Tears streamed
from the eyes of both mother and sun.
There ensued a few minutes silence,
broken only by tho mother's cry of
"My boy, my boy."
Keeper Smith stood with his back
turned for a short time, and then in
formed Mrs." Thaw , that the.; prison
rules allowed visitors fo talk to the
prisoners only 1th bars separating
them.
The mother stepped out of tho coll,
while Smith shut the door and turned
tho key once more on Thaw. A small
stool was then placed In front of the
cell and Mrs. Thaw took her seat on
it and continued talking to her son for
about half an hour. Sho then kissed
her son through the iron bars and was
taken down stairs, where she was
Joined by Josiah C. Thaw, who had been
waiting for her In the consulting room,
and they drove awav.
While the elder Mrs. Thaw was in
conversation with her son his Wife,
Evelyn Nqsbit Thaw, remained seated
In the corridor; about fifteen feet away
from tho cell, where she could see
mother and, son without being seen.
After the mother's departure young
Mrs. Thaw spent a few minutes with
her husband and then hurried to tho
office of Mr. Hartridse.
After her visit to the Tombs Mrs.
William Thaw was driven to the office
of Louis Delafield, where she took part
In a conference with William. M. K.
Olcott, her son, Josiah C. Thaw, her
daughters Mrs. George Carnegie, and
Louis Delafield. Kvelvn Nesblt Thaw
was not present. . The object of the
conference was snJd to be first to in
duce Olcott to again take the main
hand in handling the defence, and, sec
ond, to buttress the plans for having
Harry Thaw tried by a lunacy com
mission. It was regarded as almost cer
tain that Mr. Olcott would agree to re
enter the ease, in deference to the per
sonal plea of Mrs. 'William Thaw.."'
BRAZILIAN
. INSURRECTION.
(I3y the Associated Press.)
Ilia Janeiro, July 1C. An insur
rection of some pretensions has been
in progress in the province of Mallo
Grosso for a considerable time. The
province is situated in the extreme
northwest, of Ilrnzil, and is very re
mote and inaccessible. Three
months ago tho governor of the prov
ince, Senator Paes called for federal
aid, but as it wits not possible to send
troops forward promptly the revolu
tionists grew so strong as to compel
tho governor to abdicate and he was
killed by - tho insurgents on July 5.
Vice Governor Osorlo Is reported to
have been an accomplice in tho assassination.
Tho president, of the Brazilian re
public sent . a message to congress
suggesting that martial law be de
clared throughout tho province of
Mallo Grosso, but congress refused
to approve on the ground that the
vice governor, although a revolution
ist, was now legally in authority.
There are no further disturbances re
ported from the province and it Is be-
lioved that matters have adjusted
themselves so that peace will be main
tained in the future.

Seems to be No Doubt of Guilt of the
Gillespieg and Jack Dillingham to
Jail at Charlotte Description of
tho Salisbury Mob Saturday Night.
(Special to tho Evening Times.)
Salisbury, N. C, July 16. The
four bodies of the Lyerly family Were
interred in the Unity cemetery Sunday
ten miles from Salisbury. The fun
eral was conducted by the Rev. Mr.
Spcnce and was attended by a, pro
cession of unheard of length In the
county. There were said to .have
been seven hundred vehicles In the
train of the burial party. -
It is learned that the two Gillespie
negroes and Jack Dillingham, who
were arrested at Barber, were un
doubtedly guilty, the coroner's Jury
finding this from the little twelve year
old son of Gillespie. He told of his
being awake and hearing the plot
laid, his father and Jack Dillingham
doing the work while bis mother held
the lamp and watched the slaughter.
Ho said he heard the talk when they
returned and directed the Jury where
to And the second ax with which the
Lyerlys were murdered. Dillingham
killed the old gentleman nnd his son
and Gillespie the mother and daugh
ter, the latter dying Saturday after
noon. The important witness . was
brought here and put on the county
chain gang foe safe keeping. An old
colored woman is also wise and heard
the threats of Dillingham that Lyerly
would never live to see the threshing
Of bis Crop. .
Saturday night witnessed the big
gest mob that ever gathered; in the
city for the purpose . of lynching.
There were nearly three hundred men
from the Barber neighborhood, and
these came undisguised for the work.
It became manifest from the first that
a hanging of the five negro men was
a possibility and Sheriff Julian pre
pared for it by sending his men in
a closed carriage to the station, where
they took the train for Charlotte.
The crowd that hung about Salis
bury all day thought it had watched
the jail closely, and when the story
leaked out that the removal of the
prisoners to Charlotte was a ruse to
fool the mob, it beanie noisy and ad
vanced upon the jail. Speeches by
Editor John M. Julian and Mayor
Boyden did not have great weight
with the crowd that did not want to
have much talk.' In a word, a corn-',
mil tee of the mob went Upstairs and
after investigating thoroughly, saw ;
no trace of the men. They reported i
and the answer caused a Jeer. s
Finding no legitimate prey, the
mob broke up, never having had a
leader, and by 2 o'clock in the morn
ing was well scattered. It lacked
generalship. Growing tired of the
hammering of the door, the crowd
left about midnight. It refused all
the while to believe that the men had
been removed and left Salisbury a
disappointed lot. There was talk of
lynching the woman in jail, but It
was not tried.
MAN AND WIFE

which thev occupied above the store.
The throats of both had been cut and
blood was spattered on the iloor and
the furniture. The police have not been
ablo to determine whether the couple'
were murdered by outsiders or whether
Kloss killed his wife and then himself.
Investigations by the coiner's physician
disclosed tho fact that in addition to
tho wounds to the throats of Klitss and
his Wife both had been shot through the
head. A revolver was found on the bed
by the body of Kloss, and it is believed
by the police that he committed the
crime.
