Special to Journal. . IUliigh, Oct 8. In the Haywood trial today, the coroner exhibited Skin ner's pistol and clothing. It was assert ed that Victor Boyden had warned Hay wood a few days before the shooting, that some one, not Skinner waa gunning for him. This evidence waa ruled out. Its object was to show why Haywood was armed. . Ned Barnes, one of the principal wit nesses for the defense said he was in a few feet of Haywood and Skinner; saw Skinner strike Haywood, jump back, pat hand to right hip, stand still few feet from Haywood, his left side towards the latter. The defense here closed. The State offered testimony in rebut tal of the evidence of Bernard Schmlta of Baltimore, and C B Hocutt, this being given by several persons, and being to the effect that both had said there was no fight, and that Haywood shot Skinner In the back. The defense Introduced no expert med leal testimony, and so the State could offer none, Judge Peebles rallng It out. The State offered no further evIdence,so case was closed. Judge Peebles asked acting solicitor Daniel whether the State could aek for a verdict of murder In the first degree. The Solicitor replied "no," we will only ask for a verdict of murder, in the second degree. -, The Judge allowed the opening and closing speeches to the defense, so Pou wlll open and Argo close. The argu ment begins at 9 o'clock tomorrow morn lng. Bearsthe -'J? Blnitm r A , ef ' wCzj UniM You Hare Always Bonjtf VOICB OF THE PEOPLE. Cape Lookout Shoals. The sea shore line of North Carolina between South Carolina and VlrglnJa4s said to be over three hundred miles, In cluding Cape Fear, Cpe Lookout, and Cape Hatteras, all "washed by the ever restless ocean. Cape Hatteras and Cape Lookout Lights are seen 18 to 15 miles distant, by passing steamers, ships, and vessels of all classes. The two Capes hare danger ous shoals, miles distant from the light houses. . . . ; Cape Hatteras has for years, had a "Light Ship," to guard vessels from too near approach to the ahoala, while Cape Lookout shoals has never had one, whose light would guard vessels from being wrecked. Hence not a few vessels are wrecked on that shoal, causing great loss of property, and sometimes lives; Several vessels have been wrecked on Lookout Shoals during tbe put half year, resulting In low of vessels, and cargoes, and the lives of tome seamen. Really 'its Indeed strange, that as yet, no Congressman of our State, has sought the placing of a Light Ship, off Cape Lookout Shoals. Tbe contemplated Inland canal, when completed, will doubtless be a grand work. Tet, years will pass away, before the work is finished and brought Into nse. Cape Lookout ahoals should not still be kept in darkness till then. Only a few weeks sgo, a vessel 170 feet long, and size In proportion, with a cargo of rail road cross ties from Florida, for some northern port, was becalmed, and driven by the rude sea, on Lookout Shoals, where the raging waves, made a total wreck of her. The eleven men on board narrowly escaped with their lives, by aid of the brave Life Station men, who rescued them, In- a pitiable condition, while the aea was dasklng over the wreck. Had there been a Light Ship off the shoals, the vessel would not have been so near them. Tls truly hoped that the Important matter indicated, will be promptly looked after by our worthy Congress men. Binee the above waa written, I've learned of another evidence, showing the need of a Light Ship to guard against the shoals off Lookout. A vessel from Baltimore, the "Carrie Parsons," Capt. Lnpton, was damaged on the shoals a few days ago. She finally reached Morehead City in a wrecked condition. T. L. HALL.
