Up- '- ssta Prsvloui-Evidanco. , , Raleigh, January 20. There came today as the aftermath to the jury's verdict yesterday in the case against Lilliston, the Norfqjk, Va,, fair fakir, convicted of killing Charles G, Smith, during fairweekln Raleigh, and a sen tence of fourteen years in the peniten tiary, evidence that is entirely new and unheard, which places the matter in the light of a real sensation. Notwith standing - the fact that the case was tried, first in the city court and then in Wake- county Superior Court, with a great array of witnesses and the usual reports of that trial by the newspapers there appeared today three other wit nesses who make affidavit ts to the new facts as to the shooting. One woman, who is well known, in Raleigh, states she was sitting in the ladies waiting room at the Union Passenger Station on the afternoon the tragedy took place that she was sitting within a few feet of the spot where the man Smith was shot, and could clearly see the flash of a pistol, her view as she . sat not being obstructed by any part of the crowd, and right near the glass partition di viding the men's waiting room from that occupied by ladies. ' Clark and Lilliston, while the shooting were in another part of the waiting room for men, and that a third party altogether different, and whom she would be able to identify, committed the deed. She aiso says that eight shots were fired, as she recounted to her friends the next day, thongh seven was the number accredited. ThiB woman saw the Smith man lean over and press his hands to his sides as if in great pain, then saw him sink to a seat from which he was later removed to the ambulance for hospital treatment. , : , i ' The testimony of the two other wit nesses will be virtually the same-thing, though their relative positions were not quite so near. Messrs. Argo and Shaffer, and W. N. Holding, counsel for Lilliston, are together going over the matter this afternoon, and there is no doubt that there will be immediate action in the affair that has created such interest in the list of crimes in North Carolina. In talking with Lilliaton's counsel your correspondent was told that there was little doubt now that there was perjury or a case of conspiracy. This view of the matter may be strengthen ed by the general estimate always placed upon such associates las are us ually followers of the fairs and such kindred lines of work. The principal witness, the woman here in Raleigh who was in the waiting room, , first ap proached James Lilliston the griefs stricken father of the condemned man, from Norfolk, and told him that she had remained quiescent because she did not desire the prominence that is always given by a court trial, but she had concluded she could not afford to allw an innocent man to suffer, partic ularly by such a sentence, when a guilty man had committed the murderous deed and had made good his escape. Another witness refrained from speech because he felt a prejudice toward all fair fakirs and men of that class. - . ' This most surprising and ; unusua turn in the case, after;trial and judg ment will come as a distinct surprise to the people who have from day to day followed the testimony and the act ion of the entire' case, which consumed more than a week in Wake county Su perior court '.

A wild panic following a loud shriek of "Fire" brought death to eighteen golored per sons and injuries to nearly two-score of others tonight in St Paul's Baptist church on the west side of Eighth Street between Poplar street and Girard Ave nue. The terrible rush to gain the street was of brief duration, and (that more were not killed in the stampede was probably due to the fact that the church was not crowded. " Not more than 300 persons were on the second floor of the building, which, with the gallery, wss capable of accommodating 600 to 700. The fire was a trifling one, and was extinguished before the fire men arrived. The smell of smoke added to the panic, and despite the he roic work of the Ilev. E. W.. Johnson, tho pastor of the church, who tried in vain to allay the fears of the frighten ed worshippers, the terror-stricken people made a desperate rush to leave the church only to be choked up on the narrow stairway. Those in the rear leaped over the prostrate forms of those who fell, and when the rush was over, eighteen lay dead on the first floor and stairs of the building. Death in nearly every case was due to suffoca tion or trampling. k little love, a little wealth, - A little home for you and me; , It's all I ask except good health, , Which comes with Rocky Mountain Tea. : Sold by F.

" ATTACKED BY DOGS, Young Soil ol Mr Oennard Robarti.tha Victim of a Vicious Animal, Great excitement was caused on the street Sunday afternoon by the attack of four large dogs on Master Dennard, the six year old son of Mr. D W. Rob erts. The little boy was passing Mr. James A. Bryan's place and was mar the stable on New street 'when a big bull dog terrior jumped - on him and threw him down. . Two ,other dogs closed in on the boy but it is not thought they touched him while a fourth dog was running to them and .it was ap parent that help must come at once or there would be a horrible affair.' Fortu nately, Mr. B G Credle sa the attack and he went to the boy's assistance and kicked the dogs away. . Tho bull dog had the boy's arm in its mouth and was chewing and pulling at him viciously when driven away. But for the boy's thick clothing the injuries would have been more severe. Mr. Herbert Hanks picked the boy up and carried him to the home of his grandfather, Capt Cra pon, but a short distance away and Dr. Jones was summoned and dressed the wounds. Both arms were badly lacer at h! below the elbow and the .face was scratched and bruised. The scratches on the face are not believed to have been made by the dogs teeth. ; He was reported as improving finely yesterday and there are no fears of any serious results. v The bull dog was the property of Mr Bryan and had escaped fron) the enclo sure where it is kept for tha purpose of watching the premises. The animal was killed by police officer 3, W, Bow- dan, about an hour after the attack oc curred. The other dogs ran off and there is no means of their identifica tion: v. . ' c- : The affair caused great excitement and the screams of the little boy was the cause of the temporary adjourn ment of the Sunday School sessions of both Presbyterian and Methodist churches. It has revived the ' tilk against the large dogs which are al lowed to run loose in the street and many people have complained of them The Journal has made many protests against this practice.

CARNEGIE FUND SHRINKS Relief Work It Eating Up tha $4,000,000 Foundation. . Pittsburg, Jan.' 21. Large notices have been posted at the numerous fur naces, mills, mines and coke works of of the former Carnegie Steal Company, showing workings of the Carnegie Re lief Fund. The sheets indicate that Mr. Carnegie must donate' a greater sum to carry on the worll for which the fund was intended or the beneficia ries will have their awards reduced. On January 1, 1902, Mr. Carnegie set apart $4,000,000 in United States Steel 5 per cent, bonds, the interest to be applied to the relief of hit workmen hurt in the service' or in other need of help.' The income from this fund is $200,000 a year. The figurt show that the disbursements of last year were $66,290.15 in excess of the income, while the disbursements of, 1904 were $41,288.32 in excess of the income. Both of these overdrafts jwere made op from an overplus and sinking fund from the years 1902 and 1903. Should the disbursements of 1906 be as great asthat of 1905 there will be foun&a deficit : A ' .

' He sold his farm near Vanctboro, and goes to Bogue Sound, where he purchased another farm and will live. 5 Two negro boys stole a number of bags from the oil mill Monday, and a notice was phoned to some of the mer chants down town to look out for the stolen articles. A certain wide awake and enterprising merchant near the dock soon located the miscreants and detained them under pretense of. buying the bags until a man could be sent from the oil mill. Upon the ar rival of the mill man the boys took alarm and fled. - A chase ensued, but the pursuers' sprinting capacity did not come up to time and the pursued made good their escape. One of them, how ever, in his flight dropped large pair of shears, ; doubtless purloined from some store, which was taken in charge by the man as a Blight "Remuneration for his trouble, unless claimed - by the owner Mr. C- D.

As indicated by the sig nals flying over Hackburn's store, the forecast is for local rains followed by lower temperature and a cold wave. .
