Ralkigh, Oot. 1. Some lawyers pro
fess that they feel no surprise at the
granting of a new trial to James Wllcoi
convicted of the murder ofMtssOrop-
sey, and say they do not see how the
court could hare refused the new trial.
There was surprise here today as to the
public attitude towards Wilcox since
this new development
It Is said that in this section T3 to 85
per cent of the cotton Is already picked,
More of it opened than was expected
thanks to admirable weather.
Attorney General R D Gilmer returned
today from Wsynesvllle snd In two or
three days will mske a brief tour for the
purpose of making some campaign
speeches.
A report on the Croatan Indian schools
In Robeson (county, was received today
by State Superintendent Joyner. There
are 1784 children of school age, but of
these only 771 are enrol ed, while the
average attendance is but 433. The num
ber betwoen the ages of 12 and 21 years
who cannot read or write is no leas than
444, this being an extremely bad show.
Ing. There arc 21 public school districts
sud 18 teachers of the Croatan race, who
this year were paid $t715. There are
C0?Cra',sa pol's. Crostsn property Is
worth only $163,883.
Almost all the supplies for the State
Guard have arrived hero Tliey will
mske the equipment very complete.
There are considerable addition! to the
Held equipment. The force is anxiously
awaiting the passage by Congreas of the
national guard bill, which will put
the force on a vastly differed foot.
Ing.
Tbe State Auditor has received only
one application for a new pension from

New Yobs, Oct. 1. It Is deffleult to

Tbe market Is a wsltlng one with trad.
Ing growing less and less each day. The
Journal of Commerce's report on Octo
ber conditions shows the average to be
between 1 and points better than last
year. This psper Is one of the most re

gathered and circulated to Influence sen

can be relied on. Reports show oondl
Hon better than s year ago. From this
the figures Friday should be not' li

nugnt neeitate to place the average
lower than ever before, stranger things
have happened and we would not bar
