Mr. Fleming was in Greensboro, and wrote to her and the children. Messrs. Sam Bogasse, Jr., and Lewis Taylor told of seeing Mrs. Fleming and Tyree go into the on trance near Tyree's studio. They did not know whether the couple went up stairs. Messrs. Stead man Thompson, June eo. B. Fleming a third cousin of respondent W. F.

In answer, Mrs. Fleming denies all allegations, charges marring of home life by Intemperance, indigni ties and brutalities of her husband Dr. A. H. Fleming Is not a fit person to have the custody of the children P. B. Fleming Is able to provide means for support of all Sa far from regretting exposure her husband has originated unjusti fiable and inexcusable slanders, caus ing her pain. He did not complain of extravagance. He made pur cnases nimseii, and still possesses property. In the summer of 1908 went to Beaufort. Her conduct was not such that objection was made. Left be cause of discourtesy. He did not read letter to her. Denies that her conduct drave him to drink. It Is utterly untrue that petitioner has left home or been guilty of Intimacy with other men.

Clergyman Resigns Because Money Owed to Him is Spent for a Picnic. Philadelphia, August, 17 Because the majority of the members ot the troduced against the husband and the congregation of SI. Stephen's Pro evidence should all go to show that Mrs. Fleming is, as charged, not the right person to take care of her chil dren. Witnesses were then called Witnesses Examined. Helen Wright, colored, of Louis burg, the first witness, lived in Ral- eign tnree months with Mr. Percy Fleming on Blount street. Acted as nurse. Said she saw Mr. Tyree at the house once. She thought it was Mr. Fleming up stairs one afternoon H T - TO, . , , mra, riemiuj siammed door in nurse's face and urged her not to mention anything to Mr. Fleming. Went out driving with Mr. Tyree that afternoon. Helen said she carried two notes to Mr. John Winder, on corner of Polk street, in yellow house, cross street from Murphey school. On cross-examination said she cooks for Chief High, at Louisbnrg, where she used to work. Went to work for Mrs. Fleming in March, 1910, as nurse and houseglrl. Said the man came there some time after dinner. First saw man after dinner. There were three bedrooms up stairs room occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Fleming, by a licensed nurse and by company when they were there. Saw Mrs. Fleming drive off in buggy and testant Episcopal church at Clifton Heights is said to have prefererd spending money raised by subscrip tion for-an immense picnic rather than devote it to the payment of the salary due the rector, and other out standing debts, a rupture has result ed between the Rev. Garwin Quinn the clergyman, and the parishioners. It culminated in the former's resig nation and threatens to plunge the church in further debt when an ef fort is made to fill his position. In strngeat terms he criticises the alleg ed lack of sense of financial obli- ations felt by , the members of the church. ' The rector read his resignation at a recent service, explaining that, as he was about to leave it would be fitting on ten part of the congrega tion to make some effort to pay his salary due since last aMrch. As his annual remuneration- was only $1, 000 .there was not a great sum to raiseL Mjr. Quinn suggested that committees be formed to solicit the necessary funds. & Want Ad, in The Raleigh DaJij Tijsea Will Work , Wonder fo Ton Baalaeaa. stittli Superstitious actors ' are always anxious to see tfte. ghost walk. ,' McCabe May Be One Fired.

Wiley iiiul his friends'-will not suffer trom the shake up; is the prevailing expect at ion here today fol lowing Dr. Wiley's sensational testi mony before the house rommitloe on expenditures in the agricultural department;-' George .McCabe, solicitor ol' the department, it is now believed, will bo summarily, required to' -re1-i.un.uinh his-position bv President Tart. -Representative Robert I,. Dmmh ton, of North Carolina Is a .member of (he house committee which is hearing the Wiley charges. He said today that the -testimony of Dr. Wiley whs the most-remarkable, he had ever heard. Mr. Poushlon seems to think that there is ample, room for a Ismse. and a radical one, at that, to be made in the agricul tural department. These things have been brought out at the hearings: That the mam charge prelerred by the personnel board of the agri cultural department against Dr. Wiley whs based on a letter which he never received. I'hat Him letter, never nini led bv its author, and never received by Dr. Wiley, was garbled In' a verv mportant particular so that a case migh'. De 1)a,e ont against Dr Wiley. The letter ..winch was put into the official record of the committee hearings Is a letter written by Dr. H, H. Rushy, the celebrated New York parmacognocist, to Dr Wiley, but never posted by Dr. Rusby: The letter went on to sav that Rnsbv had agreed on terms for his expert services to the department which would be satisfactory "if approved by the department." When the per sonnel board set about investigating Wiley, it called on Rusby for all of seeking and (he Nashville. Banner, left Wa ington lodnv lor New York where Saturday lie will sail for Europe, Mr. Pence will tour F.urope for two months. Mr. Pence's only regret, he said, just before leaving was that both "Hilly" Green and Kmmitt Levy ol' .'..Raleigh had failed to keep then' promise 'to accompany him. He said thai he has already waited two years to take the proposed trip with these two prominent North Caro linians, and that he has derided to go alone, it is true Representative llartholdt, of Missouri, who is going to Berlin on a special message, has promised to chaperon him, but the Missourian does not know the needs of a newspaper correspondent as well as "Itilly" Green. his papers, letters, etc., bearing on the situation, and the unsigned and unsent letter by mistake was sent along with others of the personnel committee. Later, when the person nel committee drew up its report le- commending that Wiley be per mitted to resign, and snot 'the -report to President Taft and Attorney General Wickershain, its recommend ation was based largely upon the letter which featured in yesterday's proceedings, but. the words "if ap proved by the department" had be?n stricken out. The phrase proves all important in its bearing on the le gality of the arrangement between Wiley and Rusby. Mrs. Godwin, wife of Representa tive Hannibal L. Godwin Is in Wash ington.

Pence, Washington correspondent for several 'newspa pers, including the Xioulsville TJmea More About Wiley Case. Washington, Aug. 17 Friends of I ho administration are giving un mistakable stuns of yvorry over the possible political effect of the Wilson- i ley-Met 'a be feud. Before the Moss investigating committee took il up it was apparent that the public was .overwhelmingly In favor of the doughty doctor as against the wily solicitor and with flic evidence any thing like even between them Dr. Wiley would he sustained by public opinion. I. Mile testimony had been taken before the majority of the com mittee was convinced of three facts: first; llial if Dr. Wiley was guilty ol any. infraction of law in connection with the appointment of Dr. Rusby as piininuieognocist, there were plenty of precedents for his action, created by Secretary Wilson and Solieiinr McCabe: second, if Dr. Wiley had erred lie had done so on the side of the people and not on the lood ilopers; and third, that if lie lost his position there would be a how I from the American people th.it could be heard around the world. Incidentally, the testimony showed- that for some years Dr. Wiley hud been completely shorn of power in connection with the admin istration of the pure food act.' The committee was therefore ready to re port exonerating Dr. Wiley a few dayr, alter it began its investigation, but It was on the track of too much interesting material. "Doe" Wiley Is a Hoosler and "back home" they think a heap of him.'.. He set Indiana right on pure food before he left there thirty years ago to work for the govern ment, Indiana glories in what is probably the best food law in the country. Certain manufacturers. to force on the Hoosiers foods their health authorities have condemned, have tried to upset the law and have it declared unconsti tutional. To assist them the depart ment of agriculture loaned thes? manulacturero such witnesses as they desired, including the members of the famous Remsen board, the de partment paying the .expenses. The state of Indiana had to furnish its own witnesses and was put. to all the expense and trouble possible by the department of agriculture. These facts are percolating through the minds of the Indiana taxpayers and voters and they are getting "all net up" and the longer the rumpus continues the hotter they are getting. At least that is about the sub- strr.ee of a letter addressed to the president by an Indiana republican politician of considerable prominence whoNbeIievos the Wlley-Wilson-Mc- Cabe row is calculated to result dis astrously on his party unless speed 11 and satisfactorily settled.
