EMPLOYED BY RAILROAD Case, Will Be Tried In This i City Next Monday Morning. " Robert W. Wallace keeper of the draw bridge of the Norfolk Southern Railway between More head City and Beaufort was arrested at Morehead City yes terday by United States Deputy Marshal Gardner, of Goldsboro, charged with obstructing navi gation while in charge of said draw during the months of No vember and December, 1913. The defendant was brought to New Bern last night and taken before Commissioner Hill for prelimin ary investigation. The case was continued for the Government until Monday, February 2 and he was required to give bond in the sum of $250.00 for his appear ance on that date, which he did and was released. The case will be heard before Commissioner Hill next Monday at the Govern ment building. Assistant Uni ted States Attorney E. M. Green will represent the government. This arrest was the outcome of complaints made to the govern ment by boatmen who had occa sion to pass up and down Newport river and who had trouble at the railway company's draw bridge. The first complaint was made last November and several have been made since that time, in fact the government has ten witnesses to uphold their side of the case. Just what action the railway company will take in the matter has not been made public. It is understood that they were not aware of the fact that complaints had been made until -they were notified that papers were to be served on them. The matter has been turned over to their attorneys and they are engaged in looking into the affair.

RQBT WALLACE GOVERNMENT UNITED STATES MARINES LANDAT T E Haiti's President Flees After Battle Begins. FOREIGNERS ARE SAFE Michel Oreste, Refugee, On German Warship; Revolu tion Is Spreading. Port au Prince, Haiti, Jan. 28. The President of Haiti, Michel Oreste, fled from the capital to day and, with his wife, took refuge aboard tho German cruiser Vineta. Fighting began in the city at 1 o'clock. An hour later the Presi dent left the Palace under escort and was conveyed in a launch to the warship lying in the harbor. Almost immediately detachments of bluejackets were landed from the United States armored cruiser Montana and the Vineta. Firing continued throughout the afternoon and it was evident that the revolutionary movement which began in the north and spread to some of the southern towns has gained sufficient streng th in the capital to threaten not only the power but the life of President Oreste. The new Congress which met in extraordinary session yesterday, failed to take adequate measures to check the revolution, as had been hoped. It had been conceded for a long time, however, that the position of the Executive was weak. Opposed to him were Sena- torDavilmarTheodore.incommand of the rebel troops at Cape Haiten, and General Beliard, both of whom have a strong following. J It was the intention of Oreste to abdicate several days ago, but later he declined to-4o so, hoping with the aid of Congress to pre vent the overthrow of his admin istration. The arrival of the Montana and Vineta has relieved the situation here so far as foreign residents are concerned. The legations are now under guard. Acted Under International Law. ! T t T rtrt . wasnington, Jan. a. it is understood that the commander of the Montana acted under the general principles of international law, as embodied in the naval regulations, in landing blue-jack ets at Port au Prince and other wise acting for the protection of foreign life and property. It is also assumed here that he will prevent fighting within the lim its of the city, if necessary to pre vent the destruction of the town and the killing of non-combatants. The Montana's crew of 650 men includes one company of marines and it is believed that force is sufficient - to . maintain order in the Haitian capital. . The little gunboat Petrel is at San Doniirig0 .City, not many hours distant from Port au, Prince but if any considerable reinforce ment , for ;the' Montana's crew is needed recourse must be had to the Atlantic fleet battleships, 500 miles away, at Guantanamo, Cuba Revolt Spreads Over North.

Sheriff Lane and Deputy Bay - liss went out on the warpath again late Tuesday night and searched the homes of several colored residents of Pinetown who I were suspected of being engaged n seelling whiskey. Although the officers made a thorough i investigation of every nook and corner they failed to find anything which even hail the appearance of liquor. The efforts of the Sheriff and also the citv officials to break up the sale of liquor in New Bern ) and also to rid the city of va-j grants are proving of avail. While! in conversation yesterday witn a well known citizen who is tne owner oi a saw nun, lie in formed a Journal reporter that since this crusade has hecmn that he has not the least trouble in securing all the labor that he could possibly give employment.

WITH NORFOLK SOUTHERN J. C. Lewis Is New Superin tendent Of The New Bern Division. t . Y. Akers w ho. lor more than a year, has l-t-n suicrintendi'iU of this division of i lie Norfolk Southern Railway Company, will leave this afiernc p for Kalrivh where he will assume charge of the Western division of that road. Mr. Akers came to New Bern in January, I'M 3, and the division has, under his supervision, pros- j pefed greatl.v- n- f the chief tninKs t,lat Mr- Akers has done has been to at all times cater to the wishes and desires of the public. No complaint, however small, went unanswered when called to his attention. Often times the complainants were in the wrong, but Mr. Akers had a genteel way of showing them this and he has made numerousfriends, both personal and for the com pany. His removal to Raleigh is more of a promotion than anything else. That division has great possibilities ahead of it and the officers of the company have shown their faith in Mr, Akers' ability by placing him in charge of operations there. John C. Lewis, who has fir more than six years lieen train master on this division, is to succeed Mr. Akers as superin tendent. Mr. Lewis is thoroughly familiar with everv detail of ralroad work, I'or more than ten years he was chief dispatcher and was then promoted to train master. He was born and reared in this section of the State and numbers his friends liv tin- score. Mr. Hutrhiiis. who is on the Northern div ision of the road will be sent to New Bern to tak" charge ol the position tell onen bv Mr. Lewis' promotion. He will probably arrive here Monday morning. 1 I AUK MAW L MUflh V ULHIIIX 1111111 I LL UUIW1I Mill TO Realizing the advantages of fered here, another new enterprise is moving to New Bern.
