Dock ery, was shot in the Tucker building bv Policeman Isaac Rogers, to avenge vhat is said to be the seduction of the young daughter of the latter. Friday the first part of the affair developed. Then Mr. Henry C, Howell, a stallr keeper in the city market, consulted Messrs. Argo & Shaffer, attorneys, in regard to a civil suit against; United states District Attorney Claudius Ber inani. on the charge of seduction." The daughter is named Bertha, and her age is given between 16 and .17 years. It is stated by the father that a neigh bor had called attention to the fact jthat the young woman and a daughter of Policeman Rogers," whose age is 19, had been seen in company with Ber nard and Dockery at a house of ill repute in East Raleigh, kept by a wo jnan named May. " Miss Howell's father spoke of the matter and "she made a full statement. She said that she and Miss Rogers went driving with Ber nard and Dockery, Miss Howell having teen introduced to Bernard, whom she as told was a traveling man and not married. The drive was taken in the i day time and the girls were invited to stop at the house and partake of lemon ade. The 'girls said that once within the doors were closed and they were not allowed to leave. . Such , was the statement which Attorney Thomas M. Argo said had been made by both of the young women," Miss Howell and Miss Rogers. . t v- ' - -: ANTE-MORTEM DEPOSITION.

They intimated that "one would be made later. Mr Argo spoke In be half of his particular client, Mr. How- ell. : .-t ..,;; .- ,;v . - ' Policeman Rogers is a very deter mined man and his action was not uo? expected, In yieV of ' his temperament. It seems that " it " was expected that some such action would be taken , as regards Bernard, but.it was stated that it was thought that the danger of this had been avoided, at least that was the opinion of Attorney. Argo a very pru dent and conservative man. 4 . . A Monday morning special from Ra leigh reports Dockery as resting eas ier with slight hope of "recovery: " There is no ; news of ex-Assistant District Attorney Claude Bernard, who is wanted in connection with, this case. He has fled North. A :. Raleigh ; man who saw him Saturday morning at Wriehtsville savs he was the most ner vous man he ever saw and evidently seared half to death.

LOCAL COTTON WAREHOUSES Farmers and Business Men Will Erect Building of 2,000 Bales Capacity Corporation to be Largely v Mutual. Maxton, Special. The farmers and business men of Maxton -and. the sur rounding country held a meeting , here Wednesday to consider the building of a bonded cotton -warehouse. -A good number of men representing , large farming interests t were present, and the unanimity pf their action showed that they meant business! It was de cided to .build a warehouse with a ca pacity-, of 2.000 bales for the'; coming season. A . committee consisting of President Evans of .the Bank, of Max ton, and Messrs. J. K. McGirt, P. H. McArthur, L. W. McKinnon, A. McL.k McRae and J, A. McLean were appoint ed to solicit subscriptions for the com-, pany. A second committee composed of Messrs. A. J. McKinnon, H. W. Mc Natt and A. H. Currie was also" ap pointed to . select a site and contract for the building of ; the warehouse. , The purpose of. those interested in the movement Is to 'make the corpora tion as , much as . 'possible a mutual company, owned and controlled by the farmers. -, Several precautions . were taken to secure this. The stock will be divided Into shares of $10 each, and no one will be allowed to, hold more than fifty shares. The" soliciting committee was Instructed to begin this work by making a thorough X canvas of the farmers, x and , afterwards, if more subscriptions were needed, to so-? licit them from the business men of the town.? h. , The building of .fthis t warehouse means a great deal for the farmers and merchants of this section. It .means that the farmer can hold , his. cotton for any length of time without" danger of damage by weather or . fire . qnd ; at, the same time be able to collect a reas onable amount ; of . its value incash The keeper bf-thd warehouse will be bonded, . of ; course, and his certificate that cotton has been deposited will be accepted as collateral by the banks, The farmers will thus be able to hold their cotton ana will not be compelled to sacrifice it to pay for fertilizer bills in October. The safety against weather' fire and theft will be an important item. Gin fires have caused considera ble loss this year and manr- farmers were compelled to sell cotton damaged by exposure. In some cases cotton wis sold for no other" reason than that the farmer had "too safe place to store, it. r Insurance Business. 4' The fire insurance companies doing business In North .
