Raleigh News & Observer. To show how the North Carolina cotton mills are discrtm inateil against here are a few comparative rates to some of the principal trade centers: To From Danville, Xew York City 32 Baltimore 28 lloston. Mass .... 37 Pittsburgh. Pa 41 St. Louis, Mo .V5 Minneapolis, Minn 87 Chicago. Ill 61 Concerning this state of affairs a cotton manufacturer who has studied the situation. Rays: "Yon will observe that Danville is only 48 miles from Greensboro, and that Raleigh is about the same distance from the Virginia line as Greensboro. , "The discrimination In favor of the Virginia mills figures roughly about OXE PER CENT PROFIT on a mill's total capi talization, and we think the average cotton mill's dividend is aboat 3 per rent covering a period of say ten years, this freight, discrimination places the Virginia mills in position of being able to earn one per cent profit more than a North Carolina mill, or '20 per cent more dividends."

Well-Known and Industrious Young Man of Good Family at Ioray Mill Shoots Himself Through Heart With .122 Rifle Said to Have Keen DisapiHiinted in Iove Affair Tragedy Occurred at ::() A. M. Monday. Harvey Manor, a young man is years old living in the Loray Mill settlement, committed suicide yes terday morning about 6:30 o'clock by shooting himself through tne heart with a .22 riiie. Disappoint ment in his love affairs seems to have been the cause of the tragedy. .It seems that some time last ween young manor called at the office of the Register of Deeds for a marriage license, but was held up by Mr. Smith who was doubtful as to the age of the parties concerned. Manor had the promise of liis sweetheart, a Miss Padgett, to marry him, ana when the license was reiused him. ne took up the notion that the girl s parents had been instrumental In blocking the marriage. It was tes tified alter the suicide by friends or the girl that Manor had come to the girl while at work early Monday morning and had asked her what ob jections her father had to him and why he had prevented their mar riage. The girl, so it is reported, De came somewhat incensed at his accu sation and replied that her father had done nothing, but that if he wanted to thus falsely accuse her father, she would have nothing more to do with him. Grieving over this fancied and imaginary effront. Mail er went to his home, gave his moth er some money to pay certain debt owed by him and went to his room. In a few moments Mrs. Manor heard a shot and rushing in found her son with a bullet through his heart. From the powder burns on his shirt he had evidently held the ri'le close to his breast. Dr. C. J. McCombs was instantly summoned, but lire was extinct when he arrived. A cor oner's inquest was not deemed nec essary. Young Manor was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Jasper Manor and was uni versally esteemed by those who knew him. He was a faithful and industrious worker in the Loray Mill and was held in high esteem by his employers. HIGH-SCHOOL TEACHERS II : II IT.

From Greensboro and Raleigh 41 37 46 53 60 07 63 Joe McXeely, Negro Who Shot Po liceman Wilson, Taken From Hos pital Early This Morning and Rid dled With Bullets Slim Cliance to Recovei Policeman's Condi tion Improved Somewhat. What will in all probability prove to be the first lynching in the histo ry of Mecklenburg county occurred at 2:15 this morning when a mob or about 3 5 men stormed the Good Samaritan Hospital and took there from the negro Joe -McXeely. who last week shot Policeman Wilson, says this morning's Observer. The crowd threw him in the street In front of the door and riddled him with bullets. The crowd then dis persed on the instant. At 3:30 t his morning the negro Feemed barely alive at police head quarters. Half a dozen bullets were in his abdomen. The negro, who had been chained to prevent the possibility of his es cape, was in an upstairs room, guarded by two policemen, Officers Tarleton and Everett Earnhardt. About 1 oYIock this morning It was noted that groups of men were standing about on back streets. But the first reil intimation given the public that nnvthing unusual had oc curred wis the detonation of 1 ."i or 20 pistols as they hurled their lead en missile1; into-Mbe prostrate form of Joe McNeolv. Only a few seconds, if at all, be fore the arrival of the mob. it seemn, did the authorities at the hospital suspect anything untoward. When the crowd ar-ived. having pursued their way through the darkened streets of the negro settlement, they found the hos;.tal door shut and locked. One man advanced to Hie door, banged on it and called for Police man Earnhardt. "You'll not get In this house to night," replied one of the colored women nurses sharply. For answer the man hurled his weight against the door which yielded and the crowd thronged in and up the stairs. Those on the out side say they heard them demand, "Which is the right one?" "Show us the right one." The women shriek ed in terror. Never in the history of Charlotte had just such a scene been enac ted. The two policemen on guard level ed their revolvers at the crowd and ordered them to stand back, but the vengeance seekers leaped upon them and tore the pistols from their grasp. "Then.'' said a siiectator on the outside, narrating his experience ar terward. "we heard the clinking of the chains -is they brought him down the stairs." The rest must have happened in a very few sec onds. A score of pistols Hashed in the faint gas light and from the helpless form on the ground came not even a moan. The swiftness with which the mob dispersed, according to those who saw the occurrence. Indicates their confidence that their aim had been deadly and that the object of their fury had been accomplished. But when the police station was notified, the patrol sent down and the negro's body exam'tied it was found that life was rot extinct. He was taken to nolice hendquarters. At this morning McXeely was conscious and able to talk. He asked that the old bandage across his nec-x be pulled away so that he could pray. It was said that his chance to re cover was very slim.

Wilson, who is representing the State at the cur rent term of Mecklenburg Superior Court, has turned his docket over fo former Solicitor Herlot Clarkson and has taken personal charge of the search for the lynchers.

A called meet ing of the Charlotte city council is being held this afternoon for the purpose of considering the situation and Solicitor Wilson is conferring with them.

Davis Mauney Was Acting Role of 1'eace-maker Davis Crazy Drunk and Irre sKnsihle Preliminary Hearing. As the result of a drunken brawl at Harden last Saturday afternoon, one man, Frank Mauney, is dead from a knife wound which severed his heart in twain and two others, W. S. Davis and Bev Hoover, are loc ked in the Gaston county Jail, the former accused of the crime. The affair happened about 2 o'clock Sat urday afternoon and from the evi dence gathered by Solicitor Wilson, Sheriff McLean and Deputy G. R. Rhyne and J. Madison Kendrick who went to Harden Saturday night aT ter the prisoner the terriblu tragedy resulted in th!s manner. it seems i t. some one was hold ing a shoo. wig match a short dis tance up tiie river from Harden and these men together with several oth ers were present. Some one In tiie crowd had an abundance of whiskey and several in tli crowd drank rather freely. Mr. Bob Grlce testi fying before Solicitor Wilson said that about 2 o'clock he and Mauney and a Mr. Herman were leaving tne place and had gotten a short dis tance away when they noticed that Davis and one Bev Hoover seemed to be fighting and that Hoover's face was bloody. With the remark that they should go back and separate the belligerents, Mauney turned and went toward tiie two as If to pull them apart. At this point it Is said that Davis applied a vile ephlthet to Mauney and slashed bis arm to the bone from above the elbow to the wrist. This wound, it was snid af terwards, was enough to cause death from bleeding. Mauney stooped to pick up a fence rail with which to defend himself when Davis cut him again, once in the stomach and again just below the left nipple, the thrust ranging In and upward. A powerful blow with a strong knire must have leen given for it Is said that a rib was cut In two and the heart severed. The wounded man never spoke and died before medical aid could reach him. After the trouble It Is reported that Davis went to his home, pro cured a pistol and threatened to shoot anybody who dared to arrest him. 'it is said that he had the whole community terrorized until ar rested by Deputy Sheriff Iore, or Dallas. Before being arrested by this official. Sheriff McLean and Dep uties Rhyne and Kendrick were summoned from Gastonia. They went to Harden and brought the prisoner back to Gastonia where he was lodged In the county jail along with Bev Hoover who Is being re tained as the principal witness. Mauney was about 30 years of age and was unmarried. He Is a brother of a Mr. Mauney who was killed several years ago at a base ball game by one Clonlnger. within a hundred yards of where the de ceased met his tragic end. Davis ;s married and Is the father of nine children. He Is originally from Caldwell countv. Both were onera tlves In the cotton mill at Harden. When seen by a Gazette represent ative yesterday mornlnif at the Jail, Davis talked freely. From all ap pearances he Is well-nigh heartbro ken over the affair. "I don't remember a thing." he said to the reporter, "after taking three or four drinks of whlskev uti there at the shootlne match till th" sheriff had me coming to the fall. I was just crazv drunk and did not know what I was dolne. Frank Mauney was one of the best friends T had. While I did not know him so intimately, he and 1 were good friends. How on earth T ever came to do what they all say I did, I don't know." Mr. Davis was very much broken nn over the tragedy. Hoover, trie man with whom he was having the dlfflcultv when the traeedv occurred la not Inclined to talk much. He. too. says that he w-as drlnklne and that he does not remember anything thst happened.
