Senator Fleming's Question of Pe,r- . aonal Privilege. Senator Fleming of Pitt arose In the senate today, and said: The amount of space given me on account of my effort on yesterduy to stand by and defend the Interest of the farmers, warehousemen and other In terests of my county In this morning's News and Observer would seem . n compliment, especially considering th? fact that the News and Observer has not heretofore bean reporting me at all: buta careful examination of the falsa and slanderous Insinuations con. tained in said paper show plainly to an unbiased mind that It was the purpose of said paper to cast aspersions upon my democracy and make me appear ridiculous to my constituents who read the News and Observer. "I should -not mention this matter here at all but for the fact that sen aqrtvwbo heard what I said' on yes-, terday , seem to think that notice should be taken of the matter. , "I want to say to the senators on this floor that , my constituents know my democracy, my honesty of purpose and Integrity too well to allow any thing that the News and Observer may . say about me to shake their confldenee In me. They know me and they know Nthe righteousness 'of my light on yes terday in their behalf,-and they also know the New and Observer and they . dont expect the News and Observer to give- me a fair report upon, any proposition,- because they know I am . above the control and dictation of the News and Observer or any other; news- . paper or person, They know, and recognize me as a democrat of . better and loneer stand- . ing Uiao;tlte' News;hd Observer,' and tiothtaig that this paper ean say will In " ey t wa, aifeot ,thir, respect or roc &4 J itUitir ' confidence', in my ?demec- To say that the report of what 1 said yesterday by this paper and its references to my i attitude ; upon the question before the senate was unfair and. unjust and contemptible in the . sight of the decent and honest peo ple who heard me goes without saying. and ' I- shall content myself with the faithful and honest performance of my duty to my constituents in this sonata, the New and- Observer to the Contrary notwithstanding': - .: v.

Amendments by Mr. Hicks, striking out all of bill down to section 11, and thereby eliminating the high school feature of the brim Mr. Aycock opposed the amendment an dadvocated the bill. Mr. Kluttz protested against the elimination of the high school system feature of the bill, which he said would form a connecting link between the public schools and th"e University of North Carolina and other .colleges. Mr. Fleming stated that the bill em bodied features of the bill which he In troduced early In jthe session providing for an eastern training school. The bill Is the result . of an agreement to consolidate In one bill the high school establishment and the training school provisions. The bill does not require the high school feature. There Is noth ing compulsory to compel those stud ies. He hoped the bill would be passed without change. Mr. Hicks advocated his amendment and In the course of his argument stated that the State Normal was es tablished as a girl's training school, and there had not been a day for years when tlfe charter could not have been set aside had the proper efforts been made. Its wings had been clipped when It required girls to stand an ex aminatlon equal to, that at Murfrees- boro and some other high grade schools. But he and the late president Mclver had made friends again before he died and clasped hands across the chasm. There should be a more equal distribution of the educational gift throughout the state. He j had sub mltted this bill, to a prominent edu cator of his county and he had declar ed that the Btate of North Carolina was not yet prepared, to establish a system of high schools.

Smplsoh, Jr., refused to reply to ques tions of the investigating eimimittee this afternoon: '--.;'.;;.' '" . : "I respectfully decline to answer any, question concerning the artlcte which appeared In The Evening Tlmea on March 1, 1907, tor the ; following reasons: "First. Because the lnforniatlon was received by The Times under the con fidence which obtains among honor able newspapers, and there are no cir cumstances under which I would vio late such confidence. "I. I am advised by counsel that It is In effect charged that the ar- tlrle was libelous, and Its publication, if this charge shull be sustained", might subject me to criminal prosecution. therefore, under the advlre of coun sel, decline to give testimony against myself, or to make any answer to any question which might be us'-u against me in m criminal prosecution, or which might directly or Indirectly tend to In criminate me, or which might disclose any circumstance or source, from which any possible connection of my self with the publication might be ob tained." There was applause at the conclus ion of Mr. Simpson's statement. It was not far from 4 o'clock when the committee of the house of repre sentatives opened the hearing in the county court house for the purpose of investigating the sources of certain In formation furnished to Mr. R. W. Simpson, Jr., then editor of The Even ing Times, upon which was based an article in the paper In regaerd to the reasons why the Aberdeen and Ashe boro Railroad was Included In the two and one-quarter cent passenger rate bill recommended to the legislature by tha. ennftorcnnA pAmmiifon. .. V The chairman of the investigating committee is Representative Williams of Duplin, and the other members arc Messrs. Midyette of Northampton and Yount of Catawba. Mr. Locke Craig of Asheville is acting attorney for the committee. For. some time before the hour an nounced for the investigation to begin, crowds began assembling in the court room. The committee was a few min utes late In arriving, and some tim.: before the investigation was begun the court room was comfortably filled. No case of any nature In a long time past has created such interest as that of the "Investigation'' and demand on R. W. Simpson, Jr., that he divulge the name of the party or parties who gave him certain information upon which he based an article. The occasion was graced by the pres ence of a party, of young ladles.

He knew of no personal ill will (Continued on Page Seven.) him in a hole would embarrass him or deter him from doing what he believ ed to his duty, that person was mis taken. He didn't believe in mincing matters and he would talk plain. Il is well known that both my name and that of the senator from Rock ingham had been mentioned as the possible candidate for congress in the li f th district. He was not announcing his cundidncy and he was not here to make a record with any such object in view, but he would say that lie was not a member of the "fifth district combine." If he ever sought to rep resent the great fifth district in con gress it would not be through the "closed warehouses in tobacco towns," or because of anything he did for or against the tobacco Industry or any to bacco trust. Daniels Can't Read iluxton Out of the Party. Ho hnd always believed himself to be as good a democrat as any 'man In North Carolina, and when the editor of the News and Observer attempts to read mo but of the democratic party. I sav to him he cannot do it'Vith his 12.000 subscribers behind him, of which he brags." Personally, he has been kind to me. and I have accepted tourtesfes at hlfi hands and appreciated them, but when one man sets himself ur ,atherJud'ge of -every other man's "democracy' aTi'd party fealty. It Is time to call a halt. The News and Observer attempted to read nut' all the 'senators iSriio voted fbr'tlve two and ofte-Halt cent railway rate bill.

In my opinion, that man will disrupt the democratic party, if the party lies down and allows him to pursue such a course without protest. 1 know the one who sits in Judg ment on everything that appears in his paper will tomorrow put me down as a "bolter" in tomorrow's issue of his paper, because I opposed the sec tion "A" of the Keid bill to which I have submitted an amendment. Proceeding with his discusison of the bill, Mr. liuxlon referred to the disap pearance of the Holt bill and the hruse bill appearing line as an offering, as a substitute, without ever having been introilui ed in this body. It looks like somebody is interfering with our business here in this senate. Mr. Holt said Mr. ISuxton could call up bis (Holt's) bill if he wished to do so. Mr. Iluxton: No, sir. I will not stand lor the child of any one when the father himself will not stand for it. . What Ii is become of Mr. Aycock's wandering hoy bill? Mr. Aycock: You an' very .much mistaken if you think I had to consult the Croat High Cockalorum. Mr. Jus tice nevei Mr. Iluxton: Hi. be is not the Ureaf Hick 'ockalorum. by any means. But I was not talking about Mr. Justice. Whnl we tieell is a bill that will ap ply to all the trusts, and not to single out one or two. This bill seems to be aimed especially at one the American Tobacco Company and I have sent forward that amendment so the senate I may see w hat the bill means and call it by name. Replying to a question from Mr. Aycock, Mr. Ruxton said be would vote for Aycock's bill If he would put the Associated Press trust In his bill. (Applause.) He (Huxton) hnd never had any con nection with the American Tobacco Company; never had a case as attor ney for that company, and had but one case against that company, and that is now in the courts. He had never been the counsel for never exceeded to, arnr nnffrwMon to entertain feelings against the American Tobacco Company because of certain political results in which they were said to have had a hand. Mr. Huxton read from a printed stun incut signed by every dealer in tobacco In North Carolina, (Including Mr. T. U Vaughn of Winston, who for merty had been writing articles on the subject in the News and Observer), protesting against the passage of the bill and staling that its evil effects would ruin the tobacco markets of Norlh Carolina: that they would be sacriliced. while the tobacco markets of Virginia and other states would be greatly helped by it. and would grow accordingly, and urging other points against the bill. He read from the statistics of to bacco manufactured at Winston in ISM and HHIfi. in which it was shown that in the latter year more than double the amount was manufactured. At this stage, it being 2:20 o'clock, the senate adjourned till S o'clock. COULD HAVE KEPT IMMIGRANTS OUT. (liy the Associated Pres." ) Washington, March 7. A state ment w::s issued by the department of jus! ice today concerning the opin ion submitted to President Roosevelt by Attorney General Bonaparte as to whether certain immigrants who were landed in Souih Carolina last tall are legally in this country. The opinion, in one l. Is that tho immigrants ware entitle:: to admission to the I'nlted States, and that they are in this rrmntry lc.raliy. The opinion agrees will that rendered on the same casj by Solicitor Karle of the department of commerce and labor. The attorney general holds further, however, that under (he provisions of the recently enacted immigration act ll:o immi grants in (liu'siion could have been j excluded.

"No Man Tried, for Defending the Sam tity of His Home Should Be Found (iuilty," is HI Opinion Ex pressed to the Jury. (By the Associated Pre.) Cuipeper, Va March 7. r-Tbe ver dict of the jury in tbe case of the fttrother brothers, on trial for 'the killing of their sister's husband, By waters, was rendered this morning, the decision of the twelve being that the brothers were not guilty., The jury took the case at 9:30 o'clock, retiring immediately after Judge Harrison had put the case in their hands. Then began the most trying ordeal for the defendants. The strain was most apparent in the face of Philip Strother, while James wa seemingly confident of a favorable., rerdlct,': Ho sat in silence. As the minutes sped by, the situa tion , iecanj e nwre. , ju1 -wore ; atanse, and many in the conrrroom toorxhe delay as an unfavorable sign for the accused. t , ' The jury was out one hour' and thirty-two minutes. As they filed in and announcement of the verdict, "Not guilty," was made, it was a sig nal for an outburst of approval, which the judge quietly silenced. The effect of the verdict, however, was Instantaneous. James Strother shook hands with his counsel; Philip was surrounded by his friends. Mrs. James Strother, overcome by emo tion, fell into her husband's arms and sobbed. Judge Harrison then addressed the j,ury, saying: "I thank you for your verdict, which I think will be approved by the public. It has established a prece dent in the state of Virginia. NO map tried for defending the sanctity ol his home should be found guilty." A DARING HOLD UP BY ARMED MEN IN MOSCOW (By the Associated Press.) Moscow, Russia, March 1.
