alliance men, several of whom were badly
pounded in the row.

and after tussle with the rioters succeeded in
driving them from the vicinity of the city hail.
The members Of the mob then devoted their

The DeGran Murder Trial.

WINSTON, June 27.-Special.-
Peter DeGcaff was given preiimi-
nary hearing this afternoon in the
court house for the murder of his
consort, Ellen Smith, last June, be-
fore Esquire Fegram. About fifteen
witnesses were summoned Only
four were examined ss sufficient
evidence was obtained to bind him
over to the Superior court. The
most damaging evidence YVES given
BY an ola negro, Mike Davis. He
said he saw DeGraff the nsxt morn
ing after tbs murder. The prisoner
told him lie shot his sweetheart and
had a notion OF throwing the body
in an old well near ly. DeGraff
showed 10 signs Of excitement until
he heard the old dark.v's story.
Several witnesses swore they saw
and read a note found on the mur-
derad woman from D6Graf. Chief
cf Police Bradford says it was
signed by DeGreff and the eigna-
ture was just like Others written by
him. Unfortunately the note has
been lost. It is thought possible
it will be found bafore court. De-
Graf made a statement and contra
dicted himself about running from
the officers. He said he had been
near Mt. Airy every since he left
Winston. He never said word
about his trip to New Mexico. The
prisoner expressed great interest
and surprise when tod he could
not give bail but must wait in jail
until the next term Of court. No
legal counsel was employed either
by DeGraff Or for the State.
