Carolina Post Offlees Charters H ranted. Kaleigh,Nov26. At the session of the Federal court which begins here December 5th, the docket li of about the osnal size. The most interesting cases are those against Powell of Norfolk and King at Raleigh, charged with us ing the mails for fraudulent purposes, that is in obtaining goods, which they ordered shipped here tu bogus firms or to well known flrmf, and which they received and sold, There is a long array of evidence agMnst Powell, it Is eaid, connecting him with similar mat ters at Newport.News. It is stated by an official of the court that there is evi dence to show that; King had been en gaged In lhli business for a year or two. He ia blind and Is a fish dealer here- It lb not belleved,that the new govern or will make many changes in the per sonel of the officials whom he nominates to the senate for confirmation. This Is the genertl view of the matter. The rarioua Institutions and sub-department are tunning very smoothly and are In good hands, and the governor, who is a very practical man, It well aware of this. The State board of internal impiove- menu now composed if 6 0 Beckwith and H A Morrow will next week inspect the Wilkesboro Jefferson turnpike, which Is. to be completed next year, and which Is a very important thoroughfare. This road will brlogInto middle North Carolina a great deal of trade from three counties which up to. the present time aro largely separated from) the remain der of the State and which have traded almost entirely with Virginia, this being particularly the case with Ashe and Alleghany. The venerable Ool John P Kennedy, who hss for 10 many years been with the State Museum, has gone to bis home at Goldsboro.He hai a slight attack of fa ctsl paralyiit.He has recently fallen sev eral times in his office here, and has suf fered considerably from a wound which he received In the Confederate service He bat stuck to his work wonderfully well. A charter It granted to tbo Waynes- vllie Factory bite and Electrlo Power Co, which Is to develop eleetrlc power and furnish It to f tctorlrs, and which will also Induce the Utter to locate al. that point. Thera is a very fine water power to be thus devoloped. The cap ital stock Is $300,000,and Thomas String field 8 A Jonea and B J Slone are the chief stockholders. The last arrivals at the penitentiary aie five convicts from Harnett county, among whom are Wiley Lucas, aged 18 and Sidney Morris, aged 80, who are under sentence for, twelve years for the murder of Biltton Moore, at a public school debate. Moore sot into a quar rel with the beys, who slabbed him several times, sad he was found dead near tbe school house. One of the eon- viola Is Alexander McConnlck, aged 16, who confessed felonious assault upon a tan j ear old girl, both being negroes. Posi miller Bailey says North Caro lina now bas more first class postofflees than any Southtra State except Texas, and that it has more fourth class offloee than any other State in the union exoept three.

Demands Action on Part Mercantile Trade ot New Bern. Discrimination In Freight Rates Needs Correcting. Competition by New Boat Line Possible. Local BusJneet.Interests and This Sectlon'i Trade De mand Protection. It begins to look as if an actual "com munltyot Interests" necessity would force the merchants of New Bern into some concert of action, by which their trade Interests would be protected, st well as built up. It Is not alone that the mercantile trade of this elty Is being affected by the lease of the Atlantic and North Car olloa railroad, which has eliminated all competition between the transportation companies entering this city, but there are changes In freight" rites, and in the matter of receiving goods merchants have no longer the accommodations at the transportation companies warehons es once given them which both built up the trade ot New Bern, and the compa niet which gave these storage faclll tiea.' Trade conditions are getting into such shape, that It would almost seem that merchants here were hemmed in to an extent whloh makes them helpless and at the mercy of the people, the transpor tatlon companies, whose interetts ought to be Identical with those of the mercan tile interests of this city. It oan be no surprise that there It an active looking about by merchants to see If some means can not be secured to give them the needed accommodations and protection necessary, If they are to con tlnue in business. The river opens tbe way In thttsoln tton, and there are Inquiries looking to a new boat line which shall be lndepend ent, and so afford the needed protec Hon. Said a promlnept representative of a leading business house in this city, "A teui iwge uue untncoD hoh miu uu Baltimore would give the business of New Bern "the biggest kind ot relief. At present, freight rates need regulating, but who will regulate them? The freight on flour from New York or Philadelphia to Wilmington is 85 cents a barrel, to this city 09 cents. There Is no reason or excuse for this discrimination. It means that the merchants here cannot compete with tbo Wilmington msr chant." Another leading business man tatd, "A steam barge line between Baltimore and this city would pay both ways. There Is always freight coming from that city, our trade Is large with Baltl more, (Is merchants agreeable, and Balti more oaa seoure the rates so that our goods could come to that city from furth er north or the weet by rail, and by wa ter from that city, and at a rate oonsld erably lower than what we now have to pay. A boat on Its return trip oouid ees Uy secure a cargo of lumber, and so make freights each way .Take the freight rata from Pittsburg. It li 24 cents to Wilmington, and 83 cents to this city. A boat Una 3 Baltimore would putua upon equal terms with Wilmington, aad Such a boat line would help Ktnaton and other plaoes, for It would offer com petition which does sot now eiltt," It is not hard to remember the time when New Bern bad a perfect fleet of steasaera ooaaleg to this port. There we the East Carolina Dispatch with Ave boats, the Clyde Llae with three, and the Old Dominion company with two boats. Aad the business here now Is greatly Increased, from that time, with only two steamers coming here, to handle all pceetblo water freight. The tltM for action Is stow while trade Is good, aad not wait for actual txudneu losses to force aetlsm whloh needs little work, for already repreeentstrves of om tide boat 00m pan lea have looked Into tbe matter ot coming hers.

Rlts Moore, Colored, Meets Death In the Neute. Mystery Surround ing the Affair. Yesterday noon while wording around the dock of the Atlantic Coast Line freight depot, Tony Simmons discovered whst sppeared to be a woman's dress In the slip. It was located near the dock but a considerable distance from the shore end of the slip. After pushing; the object around with a pole it arose to the surface and proved to be a woman's body. lie towed the body to shallow water and notified the authorities also Capt Manntx at the A C L depot. A crowd gathered at the place bur none were able to Identify the woman. Officers Bowden and Bryan were soon on the scene and upon looking on the body expressed the opinion that It was Rita Moore, a col ored woman well known up town. Up on further examination they positively Identified her as that person. Dr Jones, the Coroner, Impaneled a jury and viewed the body alter which it adjourned until Monday tfiem jon to decide upon a verdict The body waa then taken to tbe late home of the woman by the undertaker Merritt Whitley. The woman lived alone in a double house on Kilmarnock Street. Investigations made by officer Dowdcn in regard to the woman weie to the ef fect that she was seen ttHween 6 and 7 o'clock Friday evening at Rodmans bar. She was drinking heavily. About 7 o'clock the was hearj In her room by the woman who occupies the other part of the house. Sometime after 7 o'clock a woman apparently under the Influence of liquor was teen on Queen street go ing toward the river. These incidents are probably the last known of the woman. Earlier in the evening she tried tn sell a book In sev eral uptown atorea. A circumstance about this drowning will require some Investigation, although the esse may prove to be an exception tn tbe rule When persons drown the body remains under the surface cf the water an j where from a day to a week or tao weeks un less taken out. This body rote to the aurftce In about 13 hourt indicating that her death may have occurrel before atriking the water, The coroner's Inquest will determine whether ahe met her death by drowning K otnerws No Indications of foul plsy were discovered and it is nut sus pected that any other person had a hand In llio tragedy. Tbe woman wis well known up town. She waa a hard working woman having done work of a man on the farm of Jack Rodman. She had many pecullarliUs by which she was known. Though a hard drinker she seldom got Into the police tourt. Bbe was about iO years of age. Coming Attractions at Theatre, The dullest period in theatricals, tbe summer, of course, excepted, Is the time just after a National Blaclion, conse quently there bas been a dearth of at tractions ia the State for the laat fort night. However, it haa now commenced to liven up. During; the next two months the New Masonic Theatre will offer among Its attractions the follow ing: The Great Barlow Mhistrels,Shepard's Moving Pictures, the Mendelsaohn Quartette, the Lyric Btock Company.the Paige Btock Company, "The Flaming; Arrow", "SI Plunkard", Dr. William States Jacobs, "Brown's, In Town" and 'The Tenderfoot". Of course, the greatest of these will be Tbe Tenderfoot", which le one of the largest and beet musical oomedlee oa the road. It Is the superior svea of "Mis Bob White" aad will be given aa ela borate scenic production la this elty. Messrs Cowan Bros, regret much that they were unable this season to give Mew Bern the superb attractions sent out by Mr Jules Marry, of New York Their Inability along this line was ted by not getting a lease of tbe Thtalreoatil late, at a time when the companies bsd been routed. However, tby have already booked la at for next ion. The attractions laelode Mr Uwla Morris In "Faost". Not a Sick Day Since. 1 was taken severely sick with kidney trouble.
