' - of MANY SKE THiiM UNLOADED Only Delay Now Is In Connection With Engine, W bich Is Be ing Built to Order. After numerous delays two of the cars to tr used on the New Bern Ghent Street Railway arrived in the city yesterday aftcrn.oo'1 from Cincinnati, ()., coming by the way of Wilmington De. K. C. Armstrong and Mayor C. J. McCarthy, local manager's of the com pany, received a lelegfrnm Thursday morning saying rhat the cars had been shipped and should arrive here on Saturday but owing to the fact that they were not sure there would be no delay? thev did not give this infor mation to the public. y Soon after the cars arrived in the city thev were placed on a si.lini near the new ear harn and were unloaded Within les-, than half an hour'there were at least a hundred people on the scene to watch this operation and ala to get a good look at the first cars ever brought to New Bern for actual set v li e. The cars are of the storage battery type ami ot tne pay-as-you-enter vatwBii', doing away with the obnOleteH ni"l hod of collection of fares bv the onductors. They are painted an at- tarctive shade of yellow and trimmed in red. They are clectriccally heated and lighted and in fact are the latest models of the Cineinati Car Company by whon- they were built. The length all over is twentv-fiour feet and the seats are so arranged that the passen gers will enjoy the utmost comfort. It had been the intention of the company to place the cars in operation on the day following their arrival but owing to unavoidable circumstances this will be impossible. The power plant which has recently been con structed near Roper's mill has been completed and all the machinery in stalled except the engine which will furnish power for the large dynamos. fhis engine was a special order and it Vvas necessary for the makers to spend some time on its construction and they have been delayed. A telegram re ceived from them yesterday stated that the engine has been shipped and will arrive here on next Friday. Im mediately after its arrival it will be ready for operation. Three cars were made for the com- nnnv on the firt nrdpr and th- third one is now enroute to New Bern, hav ing been shipped on the day following the shipment of the two arriving yester day. After these three have been in operation for a short time the company will decide whether to put on other cars. Mayor McCartnv stated yester-1 . . . . . 4 day to a Journal man, that in all pro bability the number of cars would be increased at no late date. 1 he installation oT the storage bat teries on the cars now here and -the nstallation of the engine whiclf is now on the road will take bht a few days and the cars wjll doubtless be in operation the latter part of next week. dren" Dr. George Williams, Newport News ,Va. . n "Surgical Complications in Every Day Medical D.seasts ' L r.

Hiram Johnson, of California, who. ran for Vice-President on the Bull Moose tic ket, will vigorously oppose the monu ment of the radical Progressives to oust George VV". Perkins, the New York financier, from his position oLintluence in the Progressive party. Itwas learned today that Governor Johnson has written a letter in which he defends Perkins and says he will use his influence to block the plans of the radicals. The indications are that Perkins will be a storm centre at the meeting of the Progressive leaders at Chicago Decem- er 10 and 11. Those who oppose Perkins are the men of the collegejpro- fe;sor type, who are sincere in their political beliefs. Those who seek to block fhe anti-Perkins movement are the practical men in politics, who know the value of money and organization in. politics as well as in business. It is said that the radical Progres sives believe Mr. rerkins, witn nis Wall street associations, does not fit into the Progressive movement and that therefore he should he shorn of his pofter of inlluencc in the third party. Senator Joesph M. Dixon, chairman of the Progressive National Committee today issued the following: ''The Chicago conference- will con stdcr ways aiid means for conducting the Progressive propaganda during the next four years. In this discussion Colonel Roosevelt will take part simply as one of the leaders of the movement. "So far as I am aware, there are no differences among the leaders of the party, which could justify the state ment that Mr. Pinchot or Mr. Garfield is seeking to oust - Mr. Perkins from leadership. Some of the papers have been very bitter, but .the fact should be kept in mirtd that no special atti - tude has been taken by any one man prominent in the movement which would justifiy the assumption of dis agreement. SUPERIOR COURT ENDS'. A two weeks term of Craven County Superior Court for the trial of civil cases came to aA close yesterday at noon. The last day's session was taken up in disposing of tW motion docket and signing judgments. Judge Bragaw returned yesterday afternoon to his home at Washington, N. C.

Every one who has published articles in the papers concerning the erecting of a monument to the memory of the De Graffenried Colony have written all the bad things about De Graffenried and none of the good things. I think thaf some one should bo kind enough to write a few good words about the excellent work he did for the colony. I have read something of him and found that some of his work was indeed praise worthy. I did not delve into his personal history and therefore might have missed some of his alleged bad deeds unlike those who have written articles about him during the past few weeks. Kveryone knows that he was not an angel and that the explorers of that time were adventurers. The article I havf) in mind at present states that he deserted his colony while they were in trouble and had not the remotest idea of staying here when he first came. Queen Anne of England took a( great fancy to him aid gave him the name of Baron and also furnished him with funds to'bring the Germans and Swiss to this country as they were a burden to the English people. De Graffen ried did his best for the colony and while the massacre was in progress he and Lawfcon were in captivity. De- Graffcnried had a gold charm around his. neck and this exalted him in the sight of the Indians making him think he was a Divine spirit. De Graffenried was turned loose and "Lawson was kUled. De Graffenried may have told some mighty fishy tales at that time but anyone in. the same predicament would doubtless have acted accordingly. Upon his return to the colony the people were delighted to see him. The colony was afterwards 1 named New Berne by De Graffenried It seems to me lHat we should have a monument to the man who named our city. Just because he became dis couraged and sold out o Col. Pollock that does not show" he deserted his colony. He merely turned it over to another who was more able ,to take care of it. In conclusion it is well to say that the proposed memorial is not to De Graffenried individually but to the colonists as a body, hut it is impossible to speak of the founding of New Bern without associating DeGraffenried's name with the event. .V EDGAR WALNAU.

To bring home this responsibility to the church workers of New Bern will be the" object of the observance of the week in this city. THANK SHERIFF BIDDLE.

MRS, TAYAOR DIES SUDDENLY. - (Special to the Journal) ' ' North Harlowe, Nov, 30. --Mrs- J. E. 'Taylor died suddenly vai this place Wednesday afternoon.

' , Evolves Bold Method of (Siting Vindication Upon Which He Is Bent. ' WANTS TO PROVE WILL VALID Will Try lo Have it Admitted In Court as Authen tic Document New York, Nov. .50. I'n.ifr.tid of the outcome, Albert T. Patrick U.i evolved a bold method of canine, the indication upon whi h he is bent. In conference with his lawyer, Wil liam M K. Olctitl, the lawyrr jut,t pardoned after his incarceration ol nearly twelve years, for the murder of William Marc h Rice, his millionaire client, outlined his eager purpose to try to have the second Rice- will I In Patric k will, as it is c alled ad mined in court an an authentic document Patrick solemnly assured his law yer that the Patrick will wan not forged and that he was willing to stake his liberty, only freshly regained, upon his word. .Mr. Olcott warned his client that if he should fail he would be in danger of going back to prison. Patrick's conviction on the murder charge was based on the belief that he had forged the will, unclei , which Rice was supposed to have becpieat heel $200,000 for a William Marsh Rice institute, in Texas, leaving practically all the rea minder of the 810,000,000 estate to Patrick, who w is named as the sole legatee. Handwriting experts declared at the hearing in the Surrogate's court in 1900, that the signature of Rice, writ ten four times in the doc ument, had been forged beyond a doubt. Patrick, it is expected, will have to depend upon David L. Short, a clerk in his former law office, and Maurice- Myers, an attorney who aided him in his practice, to bolster up his con tention that the Rice will was not forged. Short and Myers were indict ed for forgery after Patrick's arrest but the indictments against them were dismissed two years ago. Short is now in tuisiness in fhiladelphia, and Myers is a practicing attorney in this city. They were witnesses to the Rice will. CHRISTMAS IN THE AIR. Stores Displaying Holiday Goods Thronged With Buyers. That the spirit of Christmas, which is just a little over three weeks distant,. is in'the air was evidenced last night by the immense throngs of people who were down in the business district of the city shopping. Every store, was crowded from six until ten o'clock. Many of these establishments have already placed their holiday goods on sale and these were the scene of un usual activity. Especially do the shoe stores seem to be doing a good business. At one of these establishments-on Mid dle street the manager stated to the writer that during the past week oi two his business had greatly increased and last night was a record breaker. This establishment handles only the best that can be secured and sells at reasonable prices. THE NEXT ATTRACTION.
