JOURNAL BUBIAU, Raleigh, N. C, Sept. 4. The deed of assignment of tbe lease of the N. C. E. R., by the Southern to N. Central Trust company was to cover the first consolidated mortgage, made in 1894. The deed conveys the 99 year lease of the N. C. R- R., with depots bouses, hops, fixtures, buildings, engines, cars, and franchises. The Southern will of course operate the road as heretofore- Judge D. M. Furches of tbe Supreme court bench has granted a rehearing in the Charlotte bond case. There is a case pending in the Supreme court that is of interest. The State under an act of the legislature tried to collect taxes on one half of one per cent of the gross earnings of the North Carolina R, R. Tbe railroad got out an injunction restraining the State from collecting the amount. Mr. C. A. Cook of Warrenton attorney for the road Is here collecting seme information. Superintendent Ray of the institution for the blind has received applications for about 75 new pupils to enter the school here. It is said tha't worms have attacked tobacco badly in Wilson county. The railroads have all made splendid rates for the visitors to tbe State Fair. They give rates of 1 cent and a fraction (less than H cts.) and the longer the dis tance the better rata jg offered. The R, R. Commission will on Sept. 15th take up the re-adjustment of freight rates on cotton so as to have a uniform rate. Capt. . D. Williams of New Hanover is appointed a commissioner of wrecks by the governor. Dr. R. A. Cobb, of the Populist State executive committee, says a break be tween Otho Wilson and Senator Butler will smash the latter so far as the com mittee is concerned; that is he will lose control of it. He added "We would not have stood back at our last meeting but were a little afraid. Now we can take the step." Cobb is a minority Populist and what he says is hence the expression of the Anti-Butler sentiment. The bonded debt of Raleigh is only $190,160 today. Yesterday 27,500 of cancelled bonds were burned. There is now the question as to the Lynchites or Sanctified Band, In the Southeastern part of the State will they pass on to South Carolina, This State longs to be rid of them. Salisbury wants to get In the Southern base ball league. This State is now in no league and interest is on the wane. One hundred convicts from the State farms are, under private contract, diking the Arlington farm near Ooldsboro. It is remarked that the penitentiary Is apt to furnish the next State sensation. Two convicts were brought to the penitentiary today by the sheriff of Johnston county. It is said that over 830 enlisted men in the First Artillery, U. 8, A., headquar ters at Ft. Monroe, are from eastern North Carolina, Col.' Frank, the regi mental commander, sets great store by bis North Carolinians. iTho War Department at Washington desires to . correspond with members of the various North Carolina regiments which participated in tbe battle of An- ttetam (Sharpsburg). ' Eight thousand people were at Snow Hill Tuesday to see Dock Black publicly hanged. It was conclusively shown that it Is a very bad plan to have a public hanging. Morbid curiosity drew most of the crowd, and pistols, knives and clubs were In view all day. It was hard to avert a riot and race war. Th negroes were excited and the guards drove them back by putting guns and pistols In their faces. Black, standing on the gallows. warned them to go back, faying he had committed the crime and deserved his fate. After the drop fell the negroes tried to make another rush and a lot of ibem had to be driven out of the town by the white people, as they made the worst threats. Charles B. Rous of New Tork has sent to Mrs.Armlstcad Junes of this city half the money needed to put up the Momorlal Shaft to the North Carolina dead In the Stonewall cemetery at Win chester, Va. , - worms, or a klna nol before seen here, have attacked tobacco in this Mo tion. In a fortnight young ostrichea will be hatched at the poultry experiment farm here, by F. A. liege, la a new pattern incubator. ' 1 hero is no doubt that the crojis are badly cut ofT by the drought, It Is asserted that there sre 1,500 bi cycles here. Uov.

' Library Po sitions are Being Dlstribnted. Sngar Trust Scheme. Public Debt Shows Deficit, for August. Journal Bureau. Washington, D. O., Sept. 3. f Strange as it may seem, it is a fact that no one in Washington knows wheth er Speaker Reed opposes or favors the movement that has been started for the purpose of repealing the civil service law at the coming session of Congress, and that knowledge is necessary to estimate the strength of the movement. If Mr. , Reed opposes it, nothing is likely to be done, but if he favors it, or will even re main neutral, there seems to be a fair chance for it to succeed, According to present plans, Representative Urosvenor, of Ohio, whose speech printed in the Congressional Record was one of the bit terest ever made against the civil service law, will lead this movement , in the House, and Senator Gnllinger, of New Hampshire will probably fill the same role in the Semite. It is claimed that at least three fourths of the Democrats in both House and Senate, and all the Pop ulists, will vote to repeal the law. If this claim be correctly made, it would not require many Republican votes to make the movement a success, and those who are engineering it say that most of the new Republican Senators and Repre sentatives who have failed in getting their supporters provided witli offices will gladly vote for the repeal of the civ ll service law, in order to get some of their constituents provided for and to help them to build up support at home to aid them when they come out for re election. So far ns this movement lias more activity then strength. It is an easy matter to make claims. Congressional Librarian Young dis tributed a number of the choicest plums at his disposal tills week. It is claimed that every one of these appointments was made solely upon merit. They were widely distributed geographically. Vir ginia cot two places, and Wisconsin, Alabama, the District of Columbia, Oregon, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island one each These appointments are the principal ones to be made. There are about fifty minor places to be filled and more than seven thousand applications for them are on file. It is now stated in Washington that the sugar trust is scheming to have Dutch sugar shut out of the United States by tho Secretary of Agriculture, who has authority to do so if the sugar in question be proven to bo adulterated and injurious when used for food pur poses. There are some ugly rumors about the manner In which the sugar trust is working in this matter and the charge d' affaires of the Netherlands in the United States has appealed to the State Department to interpose and obtain an analysis of the sugar in question that will bo above suspicion. The official public debt statement for August shows tbe deficit for the month to have been fifteen million dollars, about four millions more than it was in July. Members of tho administration say that tariff receipts have so tar been fully as large as they were expected to be, and that the debt statement does nol differ from estimates made several months ago of what it would be. Since the beginning of the new fiscal year ex penditures have been very heavy. Secretary Gage displayed wisdom when be declined having anything to do with the factional fight among the Mary land Republicans over the appointment of a collector of customs for Baltimore, and said that President McKinley would have to settle IU Tk Varkelle Acid.
