N CARL 8CH0FIELU - Improvements r -'s in surgery have NEWSPAPER REPORTER SCARED BY M LEAN. Freight Rate Bill Passed After Considerable Discussion, Bill to Amend Watts Law. Special to Journal SENATE. Raleigh, March 2. There was a sen sation in the Senate today, Senator Mc Lean, of Robeson, after reading a newspaper, statement which he de nounced, regarding bills he had intro duced, walked towards a reporter and said unless the policy of slandering him was stopped he would take the matter into his own hands and apply the cow hide to the man who did it The Senate passed the bill regulating freight rates drawn to force the roafc to give rates in this State as low as in Virginia. During the discussion, which was prolonged, it was said there were several gateways in Virginia, none in this State, and the ablest railroad men had failed to give any reason for the establishment of such gateways. It was declared the railways were in com bination in this matter, and the dis crimination against North Carolina cost the people millions annually and was the greatest drawback to the bus iness developments of the State. Bills were introduced in the House to amend the Watts liquor regulation law by preventing the manufacture of de natured alcohol. Appropriating $5,000 annually for the Stonewall Jackson Manual Training School. The House, after a long debate, passed 84 to 23, the bill agreed to by the Democratic caucus Tuesday night to take control of Sampson county from the Republicans, the statement being made that the sheriff's total defalcation amounted to forty-five thousand dol lars, i The Senate passed a bill to prevent railways from re-classifying freight in order to avoid the provisions of the rate bill, which it is claimed will have an obsolete effect I', defeated a bill to charter and guarantee the interest on the $11,600,000 bonds of the transconti nental railway for thirty years at 4 per cent the State to be given control and the road to extend from Knoxville, Tenn., to Greenville, S. C. J E Latham's Cotton Letter Special to Journal Greensboro, March 2d. The cottoa market this week has been more active from a speculative standpoint than for several weeks but the demand from spinners is not quite so keen, and re flects to some extent that they hold comfortable reserves. The insight from day to day continues large and it looks like this crop after all will pass into history as a record "breaker as to size and unsatisfactory quality. Under such circumstances, no important ad vance is likely on the merits of this crop but the need of another big crop is now so generally conceded that the developments of the new crop will be closely watched. Thus far the winter has been very satisfactory for farm work and my friends in the Southwest expect a large increase in acreage. Spinners are well employed and have bought freely and continue to buy the fall months in Liverpool and New York against their sales of goods. This class of buyers do not sell out freely until they convert their contracts into actual cotton, therefore it seems to me that the buying is of such a substantial character that the advantage for a long pull is on the aide of higher prices possi bly much higher. x Was Good to Them. , Thenewpoat office appropriation bill passed by Congress Saturday put a smile on the clerks and carriers of the post office here that will not easily wear off. Commencing July 1st the carriers will receive 11,100 per year and the clerks' salary ranges from $000 to $1,100. The rural carriers will get $900.

Car on Pamlico Oriental and Western Railroad De stroyed A car attached to the regular train from Bayboro to New Bern was badly damaged by fire yesterday morning at nine o'clock at the east end of the rail road bridge. The car waa filled with camp equipments that had been used by laborers on the P. 0. & W Road, and was being transferred to the New Bern- Washington division of the Raleigh & Pamlico Sound railway. It is supposed a match ignited and caught the tents on fire and caused a lively blaze. The lack of buckets made the fire hard to flight Most of the contents were destroyed. Mr Danenburg Goes Into the Bottling Business Mr. A. E. Dannenberg has resigned his position as clerk in the postoffice in this city to engage in other business. He has been in the postal service for eight years and has proven to be one of the most efficient clerks in the ser vice. He goes to Goldsboro, N. C, where he and his brother will engage in the business of bottling Coca-Cola un der the firm name of Danenberg Bros. They have lately installed one of the most up-to-date and complete bottling plants in this section of the south, con sisting of new machinery and fixtures throughout and they expect to engage in the business extensively. They have the best wishes of many friends in New Bern for success. New Additions Bring New Duties -1 By the provisions of the new charter the limits of the city of New Kern are extended to Jack Smith Creek embrac ing a large amount of territory which takes in the site of the John L. Roper mill at the head of Griffith street This very substantial addition to our city area makes new duties incumbent on the board of aldermen that the city ad vantages of water, sewer and lights be given them. Particularly is it neces sary that they should be prompt about the water service on account of Area as there is not enough hose to lay from the last hydrant to the last house. A condition that ought hot to exist A Business Proposition. The boom in mining interests through out the country during the past two years has greatly increased the number of investors in this class of securities and holders of large and small amounts are eagerly seeking daily news of the market and of the mining districts. In such matters the "New York Commer cial" has grown to be known as the leading authority and investors can do no better than reack its columns daily. The Financial and Insurance depart ments are among the strongest in the the country and the dry goods, grocery, drug, metal and provision market re ports are accepted by those in the vari ous lines as most valuable and author itative. One druggist who owns two or three stores in New Jersey states that he has saved thousands of dollars by keeping in touch with the market through the columns of the "Commercial." As a business proposition business men will find in a subscription to the "New York Commercial" a valuable asset Obituary Miss Nannie R., daughter of R. R, and E. E. Hill died Sunday night after a protracted illness at the age of thirty five years. The funeral service will be held at 8:30 o'clock this afternoon from Centenary Methodist church, Mr. B. W. Fulcher, whose home was on Griffith street died at the sanitari um yesterday afternoon after aa oper ation for appendicitis. He was thirty- five years of age and was a native of Pamlico county. Band Uniform Manager J. B. Dawson, of the K. of P. band, has placed through Mr. J. J. Baxter orders for uniforms for mem; ben of the band, and the measure ments have all been taken and the uni forms are expected in a few days. The style selected Is one of the latest and the goods is of the beat quality. Each uniform cost $18. No doubt the boys will feel like musicians proper when they attire in their full dress. The Senator's Wife. The ever p roular actors Chelso D, Peruchi and Miss Gypzene began week of plays at the opera house last night and were greeted by a large and appreciative audience, lhey nave as sociated with them a stronger company than ever, and while it has never been said that they produced a poor play yet it must be admitted that the piny last nleht was better than ever.

Special to Journal Raleigh, March 4 A threatened en counter between Editor Simpson of the Raleigh Times and Representative Winborne of the lower house growing out of a newspaper criticism and a fol lowing denunciation of the editor by the representative on the floor of the House, is averted by a conference be tween the two, arranged- by a mutual friend.
