The New York Times gives al &C
count of how the Rothschild syndi-
dicate obtained it's gold for Austria.
We suppose it took bonds at a dis
count, and any premium paid for
the gold in excess OF what was con-
templated merely reduced the an
ticipated profits. BY very slight
premium it obtained all the gold that
was offerin g, g,getting good deal from
this country. In four months it
completed the operation; $46,O0O,-
600 was required, and of that
amount S23,70O,0OO was paid il
American eagles; while $14. 100000
was paid in gold bars, Of which g
part we suppose came from New
York. The syndicate got no gold
in France and only 100000 in
British sovereigns. One sees how
we were preyed on for the benefit
of Austria. Should our Treasury
be made a cstspaw to collect gold
for Austrian and European bankers:

Winston Dots.

WINSTON, N. G., June 1O.-Spe-
cial.-Dr. J. A. Butner, tobacconist
of Salem, fled deed Of trust to-
day, naming Bresident Lemley, Wa
chovia National Bank, as trustee;
amounts due preferred creditors
aggregate $6,387.90. DR.. Butner
conveys the factory and site to trus-
tees.
The order recently passed by
Winston's Board of Aldermen call
ing ali election on June 21st
for the city to endorse bonds to the
amount of $15O,OOO for the purchase
and improvement of the Winston
water works plart, has been with
drawn. An error was made regard
ing the opening and closing of the
registration books. There is to be
no election.
A letter received at Winston to-
day quotes Congressman Henderson
and Kope Elias as saying that the
reports sent out from Washington
that Mr.. Elias would be made col
lector of internal revenue for the
western North Carolina district had
no foundation. Mr.. Elias is also
quoted as saying that he could no
conscientiously accept the collector

The Borden Case.

In the Borden case an important
piece of evidence has come out that
may have considerable bearing on
the verdict.
One of the policemen, who found
the hatchet in the box, testified on
CROSS examination that they found
the handle to the hatchet in the
box also, recently broken off, that
he and Sergeant Fleet fitted the
broken parts together.
Sergeant Fleet was recalled, and
swore that they never found the
handle. The prosecution had pro-
posed to prove that the handle had
been put in the stove to burn but
had not been consumed. The wit.
nesses for the prosecution thus
contradict each other in point o1
great interest; and more than that
the incident will strengthen the
argument of the defence that the
police had sought to suppress facts
and build up a case against the
girl because they could not find tht
real murderer.

ONE of the defects of our none
system is that it has no elasticity;
in this it differs from the systems OF
England and France. In times of
acute trouble, it is true, the New
York banks have issued certificates
that gave relief, but that proceed
ing would be of particular benefit
to the banks themselves, while the
New York Banks at present are in
excellent condition and do not
need relief. Business at that centre
has been interfered with by the
reason of the banks having to con-
tract their loans, but those institu.
tions themselves have forty FIVE per
cent of their deposits in their
vaults; indeed they have legal ten
ter in their vaults Approximately G
the full amount of their local de.
posits. Had there been practical
way open to these banks to increase
the circulation and thus supply the
vacancy made by the country banks
there would have been no contrac.
ton of their loans, and no interfer.
ence with business in that city, and nc
consequent disturbance throughout
the country.

The New York Times of Friday
noting an improvement says that
many things contributed to It. "In
the first place, the reduction Of the
discount rate of the Bank of Eng
land from 4 to 3 per cent, was evil
dence that the strain at that centre
is over, for the time being at any
rate"
Yes. The truth is coming out,
The reason ceasing, the trouble
ceases. "The foreign exchange mar
ket also weakened, go that there is
no longer any possibility of gold
shipments, and the engagements OF
grain for export continue large and
are increasing"
There it is again; grain is going 6
out and the outflow Of gold has
stopped.
And still again: "The improve
ment started early in the day on
London buying"
And so London is even buyine g
our securities, Notwithstanding the
silver purchase act is not yet re-
pealed. The wiseacres will proba
bly, get at the bottom Of it after
awhile.

History Revolving.
E. City Economist.

C' Olty GCoLomlst.
Mr.. o f. Baxter is nov enjoying
his "otium dignitate cum muchee
WORKED" at his new homs at Cobb's
Point, two miles from Elizabeth
City, on Pasquotank River. It is
consecrsted historical spot, known
to the old chronicles as Enfield,
which name is revived By NJ. Bax-
Ter, and it is consecrated by civil
wa. and judicial prominence. For
many years it was the seat of judi
cature for the Albemarle section in
the 10th and 18th centuries, when
Judicial proceedings were sum-
mary, and judicial punishment fol-
lowed in the fresh tracks of Judicial
judgments, and if rivers had
tongues, Pasquotank River that
now floats go peacefully By the
placid banks Of Enfield "could Gale
unfold" Of witches ducked for doing
devils work with broomsticks end
black cats, and contumacious Wit
nesses plunged to loosen the lin
guistic strings. Enfield haa been
the scene CT two civil stru.. giles, one
in which a government was re-
established, and oDs in which a
g vernment was cverturnea There,
toward the close of the 18th
| century, Governor Miller, OF the
| colony Of North Carolina, in at
tempting to arrest Culpepper re-
+! bellious subject, and his associate
: Gillian, Connecticut skipper
dealing in contrabrand goods with
|! farmers and others of Albemarle
Sound and It's tributaries against
the statutes, was himself arrested
by Culpepper and Gillian, impris
oned IL the jill at Enfield, his gov
ernment subverted and Culpeppel
made Governor in his stead. There
in the late bloody strife between
the Federal and Confederate force S
a naval battle was waged and fra
ternal blood shed. When the LAST
battle was fought Enfield was but {
memory ana the fruits Of victory
were scattered in bombs over Ell
!zabeth City, which had taken its
Iplsce.
| Mr. Baxter has reitted, painted
remodelsd, renewed and renovated
| the old building in which were one,
held the sessions of the courts fo
| all this section, and if tradition i
| to be credited, the same walls il
which are now heard tue kindi,
words Of domestic endearment, one,
