Corporation Comr mission Clerk Brown has gone to New Bern, taking with him certain of . the ComTissiorer'S records, as evidence in the case of the State vs Dewey charged with embezzlement of some ' $120,000 bank funds. ' 1 , T There are now In the jail here thirty five prisoners; of whom only one is under sentence of death. ' Another, r. a white man named Bynum Is to be tried next week for the murder of the vener able 3Ir, Alfred here last January Bynum was in wretshed health , when put In jail, but now says that his health is better than ever before in his life. 1 , a;-'..,.,- Secretary Richard H. Lewis of . the State Board of Health says the annual report on smalt pox in the State shows a greater number of cases than ever be fore and yet a smaller death rate.' Not until the Governor goes to At lantic City after his visit to the Gover nor of New York at Albany will the names of the eight directors of the North Carolina Railway be announced. Meanwhile there are 808 applicants on the ragged edge. , - John S. Cunningham, so welt known. as a tobacco grower says he estimates that the acreage is from ten to twenty per cent greater than it was last year when there was quite a short crop. He says the tobacco -to his part of the State looks extremely well. Dr. RamseUf, ; a brother of Major General Stephen D. Ramseur, died at the hospital for the . insane here last night, and was buried today in the Uonf ederata cemetery, the escort .being from the Soldiers' Home-ef which he was for many years an inmate. It is said that farmers are holding cotton to a much greater extent-than usual this applying particularly to cer tain lections of the State. They all ex pect good prices and speak about twelve cents a pound as if that was to be about a certainty. , . William Alford, alias Evens, escaped from the penitentiary convict camp near Lillington.

Mr. Editor: The article or communication in Sun day's Journal, referring to the: filthy habit some people have, in drinking from the mouth of pumps and faucets on the streets, is timely and strikes the nail on (he head., . '-f-.Z'-'- '" ' . I'U wager 150 against $5.00, that la if I were a betting person, that an average of 60 persons, a day, drink from the spout of the pump known a Lane's pump on Johnson street, .besides there are at least 25 families who get all their drinking water and most if not all of the water they use from that pump. Then it follows, who can be surprised, if these people do not sooner or later suffer from diseases, thtt are liable to be conveyed by the habit of drinking from a pump spout The diseases that may be caught from the habit above referred to, may perchance, be such as would not only affect those who con tract them from the pumps, but they may be epidemical, and therefore, af fect the entire population of our city. Too much cannot be done to prevent epidemics, and now our city fathers ought to take steps, necemary to stop at last the filthy habit of slubbering on the pump spouts, as fell as spitting on the sidewalks. It Is sn entnbllhed fact that consumption is often contracted by the ladiwi skirts sweeping up the (Terms of dinpaaes off the sidewalks. There ia another nuiuance thai, ought to be abated. The keeping of barrels or other receptacles in the back yards with water in them.

J , v; After the.disposal ' of some : of the cases of criminals in the jail yesterday morning, the case No. 4, " State vs Th'omas W. Dewey was called for trial Ex-Cov. Aycock on behalf of the: . de fense made another attempt to get a continuance on the ground that the de fense desirexfto secure some very ma terial evidence in the afflidavit of one P. H. Pelletier, now outside of the juris diction of the state and which it was necessary to have in order to prove that one transaction, the purchase of the old fair ground property was made in good faith and that there was no col lusion or fraud' in it. Other reasons were advanced for a delay hut Judge Jones was firm and refused to consider the motion, - v The court then ordered the empanel' ing of the jury. This task did hot ' re quire the time it was feared. The court protested at one time against the, tac tics adopted by the defense in abusing the privilege of challenging jurors. Eleven men were rejected and the panel was completed at 10:50. The defendant occupied Beat near his attorneys Mr. A. D. Ward and Gov. Aycock. He-appeared as he alwaysdid immaculate and neat and did not betray feeling of fear. 'Just aa the trial began Judge Frank Osborn arrived from Ral eigh to assist in the defense The indictme.it was read to the . jury by Solicitor Moore. The first witness called to. the stand was Mr. D. W. Roberts. Mr. W. W. Clark conducted the examination and produced the books of the bank for the witness td identify the handwriting in them. Mr. Roberts was book keeper of the institution. Mr Clark directed the witness to identify the entries in the general ledger and day book which he stated were made by Dewey except in a few cases of foot ings and isolated items. The examina tion extended over some 15 or 20 pages of both books the entries' being meant to correspond with each other. He then was called to examine the letter books of the bank in which the official corres pondence was kept and those were all Deweys peculiar script. .' The evidence tended to show how false entiles west made: For instance in the general ledger which was writ ten mostly in Dewey's handwriting the entry made July 11, 1903 remitting to American Bank, of Commerce the sum of 15,096.40 in the day book is an entry of $96.40. In an account with the bank of Wayne made July 18, 1903 appears an entry in the same general ledger a credit of $10,842.83. In the day book the entry appears crediting 'the bank with $342.33., In another ledger entry dated July 18, 1908 appears the turn of $5,278.84;., In the day book the sum U cut down to $273.84. In another case the entry reads in the general led ger for $4138.25, the corresponding fig ures In 'the. day. book reak. $133.25. Still another one appears in the ledger made July 11 as $6334.03 and in the day book it is $334.03. The entry of July IS Is $5490.09 and the dar, book - only shows $490.09. ' :: - ,; 'Si' There were numerous such items giv en in by witnesses; showing in a. most conclusive way the manner, of the pe culations all of which foot up more than $50,000. ; , ' - The first surprise of the day was the reading of a letter by Mr. Clark from Dewey to Mr. W. B. Blades. It will be remembered that Dewey, goaded to desperation, wrote a letter to Josephui Daniels In Raleigh in September 1905, which was decidedly peppery and he made some statements what he would do if by any chance he should return to New Hem mentioning that there "were several people here who were living in glass houses and that they had better wath out The lant letter read by Mr Dewey was in a very different tone. It was written in his usual flowery style, showing him to be a student of the beat Idea of literature. He was very peni tential and admitted that he had com mitted a great sin and crime the result of which he had suffered Intensely; in fact, no term In prinon could nuike his ii -rii: more in( hadei.d.ired tho y.i t!i:,e U.I,. p the .. une t!mn l 18 nion what he ha CJ..I t u re n; id i . ! f I ive t rue " I '"' I t' .,!. I.. I f I v. perform but he believed that he would be able to accomplish it ' , , The "evidence all the way through was fought and at some times the prog ress was slow but the state rested its ease after having examined only five or six witnesses.?. The defense did not put any witnesses on the stand.. " -"The court had adjourned at six oclock last night but the lawyers and witness es were all in the court : house talking about tha ease when a messenger came and informed juror J. H. Mcintosh that his child was at the point of death. The news put a damper on the cause of the state as it put the .case in a position , in which there had 'been so much hard fighting..' There was some conference on the matter and the juror was direct ed to go home and if the child was bet ter to return by nine' o'clock.- A rumor waa on the street; last evening that a phone message had been received that the child was dead but as there is no phone within five miles of Jtf r. ' Mcin tosh's home but little credit ia given to the story. '. The judge dispatched a dep uty sheriff to Jthe - Mcintosh home t make sure, that the report was jiorrect In case it is correct the case will prob ably be continued until next term of court.- , . The trial of John Peterson for homi cide will occur today. THEY COME AND GO. Miss Margaret Paylor went to More head City yesterday. .Hon. Thomas D. "Warren of Trenton was in the city yesterday.
