Special to Journal
Raleigh, June ltWudge Moore of
the Superior court this afternoon issued
rule to show cause why ex-Sheriff
Rowan Rogers and J. P. SorfeU both of
this county, should not be punished for
contempt. Thia rule is based on affida
vits ty two regular jurors in the case,
that they were approached by Rogers
and Sorrell and asked to "take care of
Kilgo", and that the- jurors received
inUmationsthat defendants Kilgo- and
Duke would look after their interests.
The papers were served, and the mat
ter will be heard tomorrow morning.
Rogers is now an officer of . the U. S.
District Court,
There was a sensation this afternoon
in the notable libel case for damages,
of Gattis against Kilgo in the Superior
court here. A motion was made yes
terday evening under the . Hinsdale act
to nonsuit. , The defendant Kilgo made
this '; motion on the ground that there
was no malice; The Judge held that no
evidence whatever of malice appeared
on the records. Gattis gave notice of
appeal and that he would : ask the Su
preme court to inspect the record, and
see if there was any evidence of malice.
The Supreme court has already decided
that Kibzo's speech before the Trus
tees of Trinity College, and its publt
cation in pamphlet form were both
privileged. Under the last decision of
the Supreme court there was no evi
dence of malice in the case.

Raleigh, June 16: The steel bridge

The Corporation Commissioners have
not received a large number of com
plaints regarding the railway facilities
and accommodations for handling the
great truck and berry crop between
Wilmington and Goldsboro, but those
which have been filed are important
and it is on account of those that the
commissioners will devote at least two
days next week to a careful examina
tion' into the matter. The loss of ber
ries by the lack of proper transporta
tion facilities this spring was great,
but not as great at was at first stated,
the figures given out having been $600,-

President Roo&evelt found on his re
turn that the tennis court directly back
of the White House office building bad
been screened from the view of the
public as it passes down Seventeenth
street' by green curtains of the kind
with -which piazzas at the seashore are
commonly 'shrouded. As these have
not been placed around tne other sides
of the tennis court; It may be inferred
that their object was to save from un
necessary publicity the president and
bis tennis playing associates.
. . Raiared Cabinet Chancea,
The air In Washington is full of talk
about changes In the cabinet of Presi
dent .Roosevelt, and if the rumored
changes take place between now and
fall there will be by the time congress
meets in extra session In October al
most an entirely new cabinet.
Attorney Qeueral Moody, so his
friends say, will leave the cabinet be
fore fall, and It Is reported unit his
place may be filled by Mr. Tuft, now
secretary of war. The father of Sec
retary Taft served as secretary of war
and attorney general, and It Is natural
the secretary should want to follow in
his footsteps. The only drawback to
the change Is the fact that Secretary
Taft is deeply Interested In the welfare
ef the Philippines, and as secretary of
war he is directly in control of the
work being done there. It Is 1'urtber
stated that the president does nut want
him to change.
. Har Mar Retire.
The talk in Washington has again
become concerned with the date of the
retirement of Secretary of the Treas
ury Shaw. It Is stated with some em
phasis that he will remain not longer
than next winter, and in some quar
ters it is said to be settled that he will
be succeeded by Postmaster General
Cortelyou.
There is one other change that some
persons in authority insist is about to
take place, and that Is in the state de
partment It is asserted in spite of
semiofficial dentals that Secretary Hay
will return to his work at the head of
the stuto department for a short time
only and that he will retire to private
life, on account of bis 111 health, us
soon as Mr. Uoosevelt finds a successor
to blm.
The Extra Seaatoa.
The fact that the president Is arrang
ing to go south In October Is believed
to Indicate that there will be no extra
on next fall. Oct 1 had been set
as the dale for the extra session, but
the fact that the president has definite
ly announced that he will go south In
that mouth Is regarded by many as
practically settling the question of the
extra session unless the president has
in mind the plan of calling congress
together lu November and letting the
extra session run right Into the regular
one in December, thus giving an extra
month's work. .
Proposed New Soataera Stae.
We are seriously In earnest about
doing all we can to create a new state
out of the mountain portions of North
Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky and Vir
ginia," said Representative Brownlow
of TcnnesHee, who Is credited with be
ing the father of tho scheme, the other
day. "We are going to push It for all
ire-are worth. I know that the consent
of the four states Is necessary, but I
don't see why we can't get that eon-
sent."
Seaata's Haw Carpet.
The United States senate. Is getting a
new carpet About 000 yards of ma
terial Is required, and the cost will be
a Uttle more than $i000. The carpet
chosen by Colonel Daniel M. Ransdell
Is a green Wilton made by a New Eng
land firm. '
The average life of senate carpets Is
four yearst They are subject to great
deal of hard uses, aa countless thou
sands of feet pass over them and the
custom of tobacco chewing still exists
In senatorial circles. There Is always
a sale for the discarded carpet, as
many curious people take great delight
In being able to say that they own
pieces of the carpet that eoce adorned
the floor ef the united States senate. -
