: - FOR MURDER.
' ' NORFOLK, Vs., July 18. Hand
: cuffed and held between two men, Roy
Williams, alias Leroy Haines, colored,
i arrested Wednesday afternoon for the
". Currituck, N". C, authorities where he
; is said to be, wanted on the sharge of
. . killing a young white man named An
derson Waterfieid, on Knotts Island,
nearly two years ago, was taken to Cur
; rituck Court House yesterday afternnoon
: in an automobile by sheriff Robert Lee
' Griggs of Currituck county and his
aoo, Thomas G. Griggs.
' Anxious to get the prisoner to Cur
rituck county as soon as possible Sheriff
Griggs and his son arrived in Norfolk
' at 3 30 o'clock yesterday afternoon
after an automobile run' of 73 miles over
mud, clay and badly tor up roads in
. North Carolina and Virginia, Sheriff
Griggs left Powells point about 9 30
o'clock yesterday morning and went to
Poplar Branch where he was joined by
his son. The two left Poplar Branch at
11 o'clock. They ran into rainstorms
and encountered very bad roads. A
heavy squall broke when they were near
Moyock, causing considerable delay.
Sheriff Griggs said yesterday after
noon' that he did not remember the full
particulars of the murder. He said
, 'Waterfieid, another man and Haines,
as be - was known in North Carolina,
went hunting on Knotts Island, when
the gun carried by Haines was explo
ded, the full charge of shot entering
"Waterfield's left side. Waterfieid died
almost instantly.
A preliminary investigation was made
by six men summoned as a coroner's
jury and Waterfieid was released.
After some time had elapsed, the mem
bers of the jury decided that they were
a little hurried in their investigation
and a warrant
O MARKC
was secured charging

NAMES MIGHT COME UP BEFORE
''PLUCKING
BOARD."
WASHINGTON, July 18. Repre
sentative Henslev of Missouri, the
man who fights the hardest for a small
navv. fought lust as hard today to
expose the names of naval officers who
are too fond of grogg, while the navy's
"rummies" were just as vigorously
defended by Representative Britten,
"who comes from the beer garden dis
trict of Chicago. The row occurred in
an executive session of a sub-committee
of he Navy Affairs Committee ap
pointed to report on the Beakes bill
to reinstate Capt. Gibbons, V. S. N.,
who was "plucked'' by the "Pricking
Board" along with fourteen other vig
orous, office rs a few weeks ago.
It deceit "(1 in the hearing, at which
Admira1 i niht of the " Plucking Board'
'was the i rincipul witness, that there"!
"was not a blot on Capt. Gibbon's rec
ord, and t' r.t officers w hose official rec
ords are "spotted" with cases of drunk
enness wore passed by the board and are
still in the navy. Whereupon Repre
sentative Hensley demanded that their
nar'"- be told and their records be un
folded to the world. Representative
Britten jumped to his feet and pro
tested i against what he termed
would b "gratuitous disgrace." He
Saved the day for the navy's drinking
men, us a vote on the Hensiey propo
sition resulted in its defeat.
Admiral Knight said the retirement
of Capt. Gibbons was a distinct loss
to the navy, and that the efficiency
of the navy had been marred by the
' plucking of the other captains on the
: list, but that the law had to be com-
- plied with and somebody had to be
plucked. When the Admiral was
"asked why the board selected Capt,
Gibbons to be retired, he replied
, ."Because he had only three years at
sea in the last thirteen."

fi i -ii-J sTh following article relative . to
, i v Oliver's Grand Jubilee Company which
rf 'Visito be seeif at the Atheps theatre' all

' i,S. C daily paper , ' . r
"In the Oliver's Grand Jubilee -com
'.; pany' the Majestic theatre has brought

' ' public -an' Opportunity td hear and

gest, of course,- that here are '"a great

various 'other;; kind of diversions and

But to go back to the girl on nrr

would to go a long time and see a great
many .dancers, before finding another
just such. She is the best seen in this
city in many moons. 3 ; - t ..
Elma La Chester, the danseuse, is
the very imagery of - poetry- and the
soul of motion. Charming in face and
figure, she is like some exquisite exhal
ation from the passing spirit of spring
in all its delicate loveliness.
The offering last night was in the
form of a minstrel.but is different from
anything of its kind ever seen at the
Majestic. The show opens with the
usual minstrel setting. The special
scenery is a noticeable feature to the
semi-circled group of real performers.
Exquisite gowns worn by the women
affords a pleasing contrast On each
end of the semi-circle are two black-face
comedians and they are the "limit",
affording opportunity f,or..enough non-
sense to give the onlookers a pain in
the side. There was music in that part
of the show also-don t forget that.
In fact there was music and merriment
all through the evening and good'
harmony. .

ItW was authoritivelya- stated last
nifght by both the police and the Norfolk
Southern Railroad detectives, that sev
eral more arrests in connection with
those of the six young negroes rounded
upjThursday night will soon follow,
W. VV. Morrison, Chief Special Ag
ent of the Norfolk Southern in reply
to a Journal reporters' question about
the cases being, said, "We asked for
the continuance in order to properly
check up all the cars that have been
robbed here in the last two weeks, and
also to arest several others deeply
implicated in the robberies".
Mr. Morrison says there will very
probably! be several additional arrests
made between now and Tuesday af
ternoon, the time set for the' (trial of
Albert Pearsall, William Henry Jones,
Alvin Hargett, James Ed. Dudley
Ed. Carman and Edgar Williams who
he and special agent Pettns with Chief
Lupton and Captain Bryan locked ip
in the county jail late Thursday night.
All Classes of Freight Stolen.
"Pretty nearly every kind of goods
usually shipped by freight has been
stolen," is the way the railroad decre
tive put it wben asked what was taken
f omtheircars. It is said that the goods
taken by thenegroesnow under arrest
consisted principally of eatables and
soft drinks, such as Coca Cola, Pepsi-
Cola, etc., though in some cases some of
them got clothing, shirts, shoes, dry
goods and notions in right valuable
amounts.
Loud in Praise of Local Police
Department.
Mr. Morrison gives the credit for
this and other catches at New Bern to
Chief Lupton and the local police de
partment. He says, " Without
the assistance-of Chief Lupton and his
efficient police department we would be
unable to get such good results from
our efforts to keepp the New Bern
yards clean of theives," and, "we are
highly indebted to them for the pro
tection they give our property at all
ti,qies."
It could not be learned last night
who are the next to be arrested, but 1 6
it is hinted that some bigger fish, closer
to the bottom of the sea of trouble will
be brought to the surface after ; the
"smaller fry" is cleaned off, : ' ; '
