ously at prices ranging all the way

flowed up this movement with an at
tack upon Amerioa Sugar and Chicago
Gas, until these stocks suffered a
marked decline. The general list held

SOMEWHAT OF A MIXTURE.
Causey VS.. AlspaL gh-The Crown Cot
ton Mills Controversy.
Fr-m .he Greensboro Record.l

Fr- the Greensboro Rscord.l
Clerk Nelson, of the Superior Court,
has been engaged for the past two
days in hearing supplemental pro-
.ceedings of Causey VS.. Alspaugh. 1t
is a tedious business and the case has
gone over until after court.
In the meantime Causey sued AL
spaugh for salary due before Esq. a.
p. Eckel yesterday afternoon and OBJ
tained Judgment to the amount ask
ed-S200
The whole affair is in a terrible
muddle and grew out of the Crown
Mills controversy. Causey claims he
was employed, as a part of an agree
ment, when he confessed Judgment 80
Alspaugh, that he was to go on as
manager and practically remain in
the mill. That after the sale he was
leased" down and out.
He now sues for two months back
salary. Appeal was taken by AL
spaugh. Should Causey be successful
in the Superior Court he will, so it
looks to an outsider, continue to sue
every two months.
1t is great pity the matter cannot
BE adjusted satisfactorily. The mill
is paying piece of property and is
we'll worth running.

WAREHOUSE NOTES.
A Few Items Picked up Among the
Tobacco Men.

A SENTINEL reporter who was
happened to fall into conversation
with gentleman from Danville, Va.
1t was surprise to the writer; as it
no doubt will be to many of our read
erS, to learn from this gentleman
that fully one-fifth Of the tobacco
Manufactured in Winston is bought
upon the Danyille market and ship
ped here. This fact, said the Dam
vile man, was stated to him by d
prominent and large manufacturer of
Winston. The gentleman also said
that, Notwithstanding the low prices
of tobacco, prices were ruling higher
here than in Danville.
Mr.. J. L. Jessep, of Westfield, Stokes
county, had fine lot of tobacco, on
the market. He informed the report
er that there, would be considerably
less of the weed planted in his neigh
bOrhood this year than formerly; that
the farmers were resolved to give
more attention to the food crops and
grasses. He said that owing to the
cold weather there was complaintof a
is favorable to the depredationS of
bugs and cut-worms which destroy
the plants.
1t is understood that the Abbott
s. Jones Warehouse will be reopened
in very short time by Mr.. j. L. Alb
hott, of the old firm. There is more
than ample room for every one OF
WinSton'S five mammoth warehouses
and the people of this section of the
Piedmont tobacco belt will hail with
pleasure this announcement.

A27 POUND CARP.
One Caught at Ratiiff's Mill, Rocking
ham County.

6Tr. A. G. Conner, who lives about
one mile from Ratliff's mill, in Rock
ingham county, was in town May 18th
with load of tobacco. Having seen
an item in THE SENTINEL d few days
ago about a 16l pound carp that was
recently caught, he gave the reporter
one better. Mr.. Conner says that just
after recent freshet young man
named Brem caught carp in shall
low branch below RatlIff's mill dam
which weighed q pounds. The re-
ceding water had left the huge fish in
a shallow basin where he was discov-
cred and captured by Brem.
Some ten or twelve years ago Mr..
Ratiiff put several carp in his mill
pond. and this monster is supposed to
be one Of the original pair, which was
carried over the dam by the freshet.
One weighing II pounds was similarly
caught about two years ago.
Mr. Conner says that the continued
cold weather has damaged the tobac-
co plants considerably and the farm
ers are somewhat "blue'' over the crop
outlook. The cut-worms and bugs
are unusually Numerous and destruc-

Shot His Wife for a Burglar.

The Goldsboro Argus says one Mon
W. e. L. MGsgrave, of Sauiston town
ship, Wayne county, was taken with
an ordinary bleeding at the nose and,
without waking her husband, who
was sleeping soundly, she arose and
went to the well, near by, to wash.
On returning she awakened her huS-
band with the noise of shutting the
door, and he, while yet dazed by
sleep, thinking it was some one break
ing into the house, caught up his pis-
toi from under his pillow and fired,
the shot taking effect in his wifc's
breast, just over the frontal bone,
and probably glancing downward.
The poor man is beside himself with
grief, while his wife, though cheerful,
lies prostrate and in much pain.

A HIGH-HAEDBD SCHEME.
A Representative Of the Duke Cigarette
Company
CALLS upon SEVERAL MERCHANTS
In Winston and Tells Them That They
are Violating Their Contract by
Handling the Magnolia Cigarettes,
Manufactured by Messrs. Smith &
Son-What the Merchants Said

| Mr.. Cramer, a representative of the
American Tobacco Company, was in
! Winston again recently and inter
| viewed several wholesale merchan IS
| relative to their handling any cigar
| ettes except those manufactured by
| the Messrs. Duke, of Durham.
The representative claimed to the
merchants that they violated the con-
tract which they signed by selling the
goods manufactured by Messrs. Smith
& Son, of Winston.
! The Duke cigarettes are sold by the
case for S3.65 per thousand and the
contract says ttaat1if the dealers
handle them to the satisfaction of
the manufacturers he will be allowed
a rebate of 10 cents on each thousaD
bought. Right here is the point
where the Dukes try to freeze out all
of their competitors. If the mer-
chant has any other cigarette the men
who are members of the tobacco trust
steps up and claim that you are not
handling our goods to our satisfaction,
hence we cannot allow you the 40
cents rebate.''
Mr.. Cramer found cold comfort"
when he called upon several Winston
merchants.
DR.. V. O. Thompson. who has been
handling both the Duke and Smith
cigarettes, Informed MIR. Cramer that
he did not think the people would
submit to any such imposition and
that he considered Mr. Dukes plan
un-American. The Doctor also in
formed the representative that he
proposed to continue the sale of the
Smith cigarettes regardless Of what
Mr.. Duke or the American Tobacco
Company said.
Messrs. Ashcraft s. Owens told the
Duke representative: Your Com
pany claimed the privilege of running
its own business, and we claim the
right of doing the same thing" Mr..
Cramer was also told by member of
the drug firm that they would handle
Mr.. Smiths cigarettes as long as they
pecially anxious about handling
Messrs. Dukes goods.
When Mr.. Cramer called upon
Messrs. Gilmer & Marler he found
that they were selling the Smith ci-
garetteS instead of Dukes. Il see you
haven't any Duke cigarettes in stock, :"
said the Durham gentleman. mo, J"
replied one member of the firm" and
we will not have any until your Com
pany says it will allow US the forty
cents rebate, regardless Of our hand
ing any other goods
One wholesale merchant informed a
SENTINEL representative that he was
selling ten thousand of Smiths cigar
cites to one thousand of Dukes.

A large and enthusiastic audience
witnessed the musical entertainment
given by the pupils of the City Schools

May 18th.
The entire program was admirably
rendered and the patrons and friends
of the school were highly pleased with
the entertainment.
The recitation delivered by Miss
Georgia Pegram, daughter of Mr.. 5.
S. Pegram, was wel received. The
only criticism THAT could be made was
the reciter's low one OF voice.
The Song-Burlesqu Band, by seven
boys from the North School, was
specially pleasing and captured the
audience. One of the ''end men,
Master Russell Vaughn, SOD Of Mr.. I.
L. Vaughn, was the greatest attrac-
tion. Notwithstanding he kept his
eye on the other boys he would occa-
sional1y fall behind in the imitation
