A COLLISION.
An Operators Mistake and ITS
Consequences.

Consequences.
This morning at 4:20 a head end col
lision occurred on the Western North
Carolina railroad, one and a half miles
east of Bridgewater.
East bound passenger train No. 10,
and west bound passenger train No. 8,
collided just east Of Bridgewater,
badly demolishing one engine, and
giving the passengers lively
shaking up. No one was hurt Sc
riously, however, Baggage Master Bo-
cock having his head cut, being thrown
against the side of his car when the col
Esion occurred. The accident took
place on a comparatively level stretch OF
track and the engineers of both trains
saw the other train in time to check their
speed.
The accident was caused by the tele
graph operator at Hickory, who, it is
supposed, in copying the orders to trair
No. Q, wrote Bridgewatcr when ht
should have written Glen Alpine, a:
meeting point. Glen Alpine is severa
miles east of Bridgewatcr. Train No, II
having orders to meet and pass No, 8 a
Glen Alpine, had only gotten fairly unde
way, when the two trains met as stated
The engine men escaped by jumping.
An engine was sent to the scene a
once to bring No. Q through, the engin
on that train being disabled. The trac
was blocked for several hours, the ma
not reaching Ashcville until late thi
afternoon.

Geo. T. Jones, proprietor of the
Racket" store, has assigned.
The assignment was made this, morn

O'Clock and is now in the hands of the
assignee.
The stress in money matters hascaused

Mr.. Jones came to Asheville about four
years ago and established the Racket
store, occupying the stand opposite the
Swannanoa hotel, now occupied by f.

growth of his business compelled him to

building was selected which he has occu-

EFFECTIVE LIBERAI.ITY.
70 EvauxeliZe North Carolina
Over S2,5OO Was Raised Yester-
dan.

The special services conducted at the
First Presbyterian church by Rev. L. w.
Smith came to a close yesterday. Mr..
Smith preached in the morning on the
subject of christian giving as illustrated
by the widows mites and showed that
God takes account OF our gifts to Him,
beholding them every one that He de-
pends for the spread of His cause upon
these gifts rather than upon miraculous
interference; and that He measures our
gifts not by the figure they reach but by
the amount of sct-denial they involve.
After the sermon Mr.. Smith briefly
stated that his mission was in large
measure a financial one, he being charged
to raise money to send forth evangelists
throughout the state. He quoted from
recent reports to show that one-sixth OF
the families of the state were without
any portion of the Scriptures, which
means that 100000 of our population
are practically without the Gospel The
money subscribed would at once be used
in employing evangelists so that within
one month the good work would be.

He asked the congregation for $4,000
and confessed that it was large
amount, but added that if it was pledged
the effect would be felt by all the Other
churches of the synod and would set
high standard to which they must come
Two gentlemen promptly offered $500
each, one offered $3.50, four or five OF
lcrcd 500 each, then by $50, by $2S
and smaller sums, the total reached wa'
over 50 800. Several liberal contribu
tors were absent and it is confidently cX
pcctcd that the figure set, $4,000, will b.
reached. This offering was made by
congregation which, within few months
has subscribed $500 to Foreign Mission
and $3.50 to hoa ting Indebtedness
Not one cent of the So 500 raised yester

Reef Killed Outside of state
Cannot be Forbidden sale In
That state, an Attempt to do SO
Being am Interference with In
ter-State Commerce.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 19.-The United
States supreme court to-day handed
down an opinion affirming the Judgment
of the circuit court of the United States
for the earstern district of Virginia di-
recting that writ OF habeas corpus be
granted to Vim. Rebmar, convicted in
Norfolk of violation of the state meat in
spection law.
This is one of what are known as the
dressed beet cases" arising out of state
legislation having for its object the re-
striction of the sale of meats by firms To-
Gated outside the state in which the
meats are offered for sale. The statutes
of Virginia make it an offence to offer for
sale fresh meat slaughtered more than
one hundred miles from the place of sale
unless first Inspected a provision for
which is made on petition OF not less
than twenty persons, the compensation
to the inspector to be one cent
per pound. 1t was contended
that this law was an interference with
interstate commerce and therefore uncon-
stitutional and void
The court, in the opinion OF Justice
Harlan, sustains this contention and
afiirms the judgment OF the lower court
ordering Rebman's release.
