RacEels witnesses. Rachel wore a iaunty
blue jockey cap and an expansive smile.
and pleaded her own case In impressive
language emphasized with EN-.
phatic gestures, She claimed that
there was a conspiracy against her and
shat the whole matter was spite work
Witness Ross said he believed the matter
was mostly spite work Rachel claimed
TO have worked for Clerk Cohcran's
family for years. She also claimed &C
quaintance with other prominent families
of the county. THE white people and
the colored people like me, but the mig
gars do not. Niggars have a
dirty principle but white and
colored people have not. they would tell
lie and swRre to 10. Rachel's speech
caused more laughter and amusement
than has been heard in court for q long
time. One of her witnesses, colored
man, openly charged Perry Henry, the
prosecuting witness, with selling
whiskey
The jury found a verdict Of not guilty
without leaving the box, which so re.
joiced Rachel that she exclaimed, Thank
you, gentlemen, thank you, and snatch.
ing off her cap bows to the jury repeatedly.
Two other charges against Rachel were
nolle prosecuted BY the state.
At ] o'clock court adjourned until 5. 80

He Makes Proposals to the Old Gas Com
pany Which Are Refused.
An offer was recently made by ].
Edward Addicks, president of the Bay
State Gas Company, which is erecting a
plant here, for the purchase of a con-
trolling interest of the stock of the VII
mington Coal Gas Company. The offer
as made about January 10, to Edward
Belts, president of the old company and
chairman of the trust committee, which
holds about three.quarters of the stock
and it was refused.
The proposal was $65 a share in cash /;
or $75 per share in per cent. bonds; or
$50 per share ind per cent. bonds; or a
guarantee of per cent. on the value of
the stock for lease. 1t was understood
that Mr.. Addick's Company was to issue
the bonds. The proposals were not con-
sidered to have been made in good faith
and were not seriously entertained. The
offer was rejected as soon as the members
Of the stock holding trust had been con.
suited.
The Trust Committee has entered into
ar agreement not to sell share of stock
for less than $110 though the opinion is
expressed that an offer Of 500 per share
would be favorably received. Some time
ago local capitalist offered Mr.. Addicks
200 shares at ss7, but the shrewd Boston
magnate declined to purchase. The
impression among brokers is that the
true value of the Wilmington Coal
Gas Company stock is $SS per share.
Addick's offer was probably made in
| good faith. though the Trust Committee
seems to think differently, for it is a GER
tainty that he intends to establiGh a gas

vantageous for him to secure possession
