A TARHEEI. STORY.
A wife's Fidelity seems to he at
Stake.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., September s.
Reidsvile is now in the midst of much
excitement growing out of the sensation
al corOner's investigation in the case OF
d. E. Morris, who died very suddenly
and under rather peculiar circumstances
ii few days ago. The investigation has
been in progress one week and much sen
SatIonal evidence is being brought out.
One year ago Mr.. Morris, who was
one of the oldest and most substantial
business men of Reidsville, was married
to Miss Cora May Scales, very pretty
young lady and the acknowledged belle
of the town. 1t is said that Miss Scales
did not love Morris and her marriage to
him was against her wishes. This is
plainly evident from the fact that imme-
diately after the ceremony was perform
ed, Mrs. Morris absolutely and uncondi-
tionally refused to live with her husband
as his wife, and they lived apart until
Morris death. However, of late they
have both lived i'll the same house, but
each occupying separate apartments.
Some days ago Mrs. Morris asked her
husband to have his life insured for $1O,-
900 and have the policy made out in her
favor. This was done and the policy
was delivered to her. Morris told her
that he had also made his will and had
bequeathcd to her property worth $780,
600.
In day or two Morris was found
dead in his bed. Although the circum-
stances looked suspicious, on account Of
Mrs. Morris connections and her prom
inencc in society, no action was taken
against her and Morris was buried, her
friends declaring he was victim of heart
disease.
But after Morris body had been in the
grave one week coroner's jury was
summoned, the body exhumcd, and the
stomach cut out by Drs. Broughton, OF
RcdsvilIe, and Gregory, of Greensboro.
These physicians pronounce the heart
perfectly sound and say death resulted
from the effects of chloroform, and that
much smaller dose than that used
would have produced death. The stom-
ach has been sent to the State chemist
for analysis. 1t remains to be seen
whether Morris took an overdose ofchlo-
reform, or if it was administered to him.
Four lawyers are employed on the case
and several days will yet be required to
hear evidence. Mrs. Morris is now i'll a
very critical condition, her nervous sys-
TEN being entirely unstrung. Three ply,
scians are attending her, but it is feared
that she is beyond recovery. Highly
sensational developments arc expected in
the next few days. Mrs. Morris is con-
nected with the best families of Rocking
ham country. She has been placed un-
der arrest to await the coronc's verdict.

A moderate and very good shipping

Oats were tradedIin moderately, and a

There was no particular pressure to sell

The Fire EsxtinHuished and More
COrpseS Found.

ANTWERP, September 9.-The fire which
started in the cartridge factory on Friday
has at last been cxtinguished. Several
more corpses have been found, and the
number of dead will certainly reach two
hundred.
King Leopold and the Cabinet ministers
to-day visited the hospitals where the
sufferers by the fire are being cared for.
The arrest of NJ. Carvilain, proprietor
of the cartridge factory, has been or
dercd.
Many persons passed the night in the
open air, dreading to remain in their
homes, owing to the explosion of fpetro-
leum which occurred at intervals until
Sunday morning.
The village of Austruwell, inhabited by
artisans, was completely destroyed for
hundreds of yards. and in its vicinity not
a building escaped damage. All parts of
the city show more or less damage, and
portions have the appearance Of having
been bombarded.

THE GREAT EXPOSITION.
A GRAND AND IMPOSING CIVIC
PARADE AND DISPLAY.

Reviewed by the President, Gov
ernOr Jackson and Mayor La.
trObe-The Great Reception at
the Rennert House, Etc.
BALTIMORE, Md, September 9.-The
great Exposition began this morning
with the civic and trades parade, re-
viewed by President Harrison, Governor
Jackson and Mayor LatrObe. The pa
rade, consisting of 100 floats, and alto
gether $4,000 men, was four hours in
passing the stand. Like all such affairs,
it was grand and imposing, but at the
end dwindled in insignificant advertise
ment wagons. At last it was over, and
the committee took the President amid
tlattering huzzas of the people back to
the Rennert House Mrs. Harrison, who
arrived at the hotel from Jenkinton, re-
turned to Washington by an early train,
as did also Secretary Window. In the
hotel parlors were many prominent citi-
zens when the Mayor read the engrossed
resolutions of the city council, inviting
the President to hold public reception
at the city hall, the mayor, or, behalf of
of the reception committee, invited him
to attend dinner in his honor at the ho-
tel.
Into the large dining room of Rennert
House filed $50 guests wishing to honor
the President OF the United States. An
orchestra concealed behind natural ferns
played during the meal. Daylight was
admitted through stained glass softened
and subdued, and incandescent electric
light added brilliancy to the scene.
The President and party left a little
early in order to attend the reception at
the city hall. The President stood from
6 to 7 p. m. near the door of the recep-
ton room, and as the $500 men, women
and children passed single file he gave
each firm shake Of the hand and
pleasant look. He readily took the hands
of children and all. The reception closed
sharply on the minute, and for few mo-
ments the President sat in the chair OF
the Mayor of Baltimore. Lined in front
of the city hall the letter carriers OF the
city were keeping back the crowd. AS
the President was recognized descending
the stairs cheer upon cheer, loud and
clear, rang out, the most frantic since his
stay, continuing to the depot, where the
chief executive entered the car "Balti-
more" together with Secretary Tracy,
Marshall Ransdell and Adjutant General
kelton. At 7.30 a special engine took
the car to Washington, where President
Harrison remains tonight.
Considerable anxiety is felt tonight
here of accidents due to many electric
wires having been cut to allow the floats
to pass.

DRYMAN IN A BAD WAY.
He was Much Worse Yesterday
and will Probably Die.

and will Probably Die.
John Dryman, the youth shot by engin-
Ger William Miller in the row at the Jcn-
kins woman's house Saturday evening,
spent bad day yesterday, and the prob
ability now is that he will die. The bull
let has not yet been located, and the ply
sicians are fearful of immediate fatal re-
suits if the probe is used, owing to the
location of the wound and the direction
in which the missile ranged. The
wounded man is receiving careful and
skillful treatment at the hands of DR..
Justice. but it is safe to say that he can
not live longer than few days, at the
farthest. .
Miller has fled the State, it is supposed,
and the officers have been busy since
Sunday morning telegraphiug to various
points in this and adjoining States i'll the
hope of fintercepting him. So far their
efforts have proven unsuccessful, and ow-
ing to the means which he had, and has
at his command to make good his escape,
there is considerable conjecturs on the
part of the authorities as 10 the proha.
bility of his ever being over taken and
brought back to answer for his crime in
the event that Dryman dies-au end
that now seems to be beyond the shadow
of a doubt.

A Brutal Murder.

NORFOLK, Va, September ct. l..
Walker, a we'll known merchant of Nor
folk county, engaged in business at Sew
ellis Point, six miles from this city, was
murdered early yesterday morning. The
motive for the murder was robbery and
six negroes William Henry Curtis, Henry
Williams. Samuel Stencil, Cornelius
White, George Pryor and Robert Curtis

Curtis was the first one of the murderers
arrested; and White under examination
broke down and implicated the other five
men named as his accomplices. Accord
ing to his story, he and his pals went to
Walkers store Sunday morning where
he happened to be sleeping, and effected
an entrance. They were met by Walker
in his night dress and unarmed, and they
at once seized him, and after knocking
him scnseless with stick of wood, they
stranglcd him to death.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., September o.
high and heavy sea is now rolling and
high wind is blowing, but it has
changed its quarter-veering moving to the
northwest. Otherwise. the destruction
here this evening would have been in
calculable. AS it is the board walk and
pavilions from the States hotel bath
houses to Kipple's baths have been
ground almost into kindling wood. The
avenues from Maryland avenue to Chel-
sea avenue are submerged to the depth
of three to four feet, and the cellars of
nearly all the beach houses have as
much water in them. The ocean wall
in front of the Traymore gave way
entirely at o'clock, and the waves are
now washing the cellar walls of the
Windsor. Some anxiety is felt there but
as the tide is high at 8 o'clock there is
hope that no great damage may be done.
The greatest destruction, as near as can
be learned, is below Shelburne, Guverna-
tor Lees, Doyle's, Grifiths, Flying
Horse and TOpham's. Outside pavilionS
have all been bodily lifted from their pin
nings and destroyed. 1t is difficult to
learn more particulars until the waters
recede. Occupants of all the remaining
paviions are moving out and packing
their goods. Several persons received
severe shocks this evening by coming in
contact with electric light wires as they
fell from the poles and before the current
could I've shut off. Guests at many of the
hotels are moving to houses nearer the
center of the city. The meadows are COW
cred with water, and the loss is now esti-
mated at $4,000.
NEWPORT, X. l., September 9.-The
sea is very high. The surf has broken
across the cliff walk in places and at
high tide this morning the bathing beach
broke way across the road bed into Eas-
tons pond. The shingles were stripped
off the pavilion in places and the water
invaded the dining hall and waiting
room but did no serious damage. The
bath houses at the east end of the beach
were moved from their positions. The
surf is said to be the highest known for
twenty years. The Narragansett pier
boat was unable to make her trips from
here to-day and the Black Island boat
has not come in.

WHAT WILL. HE SAYP
The Inspector Arrives and Takes
the Situation In.

the Situation In.
United States postoffice Inspector Vim.
Conard detailed by the postal authori-
ties at Washington to visit Asheville and
report back to the Department the ad-
visibility of changing the location of the
city postoffice, has arrived.
He is a portly, pleasant-faced gentle
man, chock full of business and refuses to
talk to anybody about the change, or
what he will report back to his superiors.
He has been i'll Asheville since Sunday
morning, and has taken the whole situa-
ton in at a glance.
He has also made rigid examination
of postmaster Cannons books and ad-
ministration of the Office during his in
cumbency, and highly compliments that
official and his assistants upon the man.
ner in which they have discharged the
important business entrusted to them.
But Mr. Conard will not talk about
the removal or non-removal of the loca-
ton of the office. Neither will he say a
word about the text of the report he
will make to the first assistant postmas-
ter general concerning the same.
He has, however, examined the Har-
kins building, as he has also inspected the
present location of the office. He inti-
mated that in case of fire the former
would be safer. He had no confidence in
a frame building in case of such an occur
renee, and would prefer solid, substan-
tial brick structure every time.
He also ntimated that in the present
quarters the postoffice employees lacked
sufficient room to speedily and satisfac-
torily work up Asheville's bulky mail.
He said the Harkins building was large
and roomy.
He intimated that the help in the Ashe-
vile office was insufficient; more was
needed, and needed badly. An assistant
mailing clerk would not he out Of place;
and an extra delivery clerk would be
decided acquisition.
But he declined to say anything about
the removal of the postofice, and that
question is one which most disturbs the
local public mind. He didn't wish to be
interviewed, and he wouldn't be. And
that settled it.
The inspector will probably make his
report at once, and, if so, the Asheville
folks will know where the postoffice will
be located before the end of the week. II
it is changed there will be no use in kick
ing; and, if it stays where it is, there's
an end to it. Mr.. Conard's report is
Judgment, and the Washington authori-
ties appoint no returning boards in the
matter of changing postofice location.
But what will inspector Conard say ?
Postmaster Cannon has made applica-
ton for permission to employ more help
in the Asheville office, and if his request
is granted he says he will give the Ashe-
williams such a local postal service as they
have never had before.
In the meanwhile Inspector Canard
holds the key to the entire situation, and
what his report contains concerning the
whole affair goes-with four-line plea G..

caIamitOu. Fire I'm Albany.

ALBANY, n. Y, September ga fire
broke out on an upper floor ofMcCordle's IS
four story rag and junk warehouse at
1 so O'Clock this afternoon. Thirty or
forty women and girls were employed in
picking rags. Many of them escaped bv
stairways and fire escapes; but some
were cut off by the dense smoke. One
girl fell from a third story window upon
pile of iron, and was fatally hurt
another followed a moment later and
was badly injured. Both were breathing
when taken to the hospital. Another
was probably fatally burned. 1t is re-
ported that others were caught in the
building; but of this nothing can be
learned definitely.
