Creary people prepared an opposition bar
becue for Col. Violet the legislative op-
ponent OF the Blackburn candidate, three
miles down the river. Everybody turned
out to-day for the barbecues, and business

feeling which prevailed, especially IN the
Blackburn camps. the two factions did not
clash, but 1t is reported there were a doz-
en- fights at the opposition barbecue. Feel
is red hot over the doings to-day. Sena-

not denounce President Cleveland and the
Kentucky administration democrats, but
referred to them only by insinuation. His
speech was in direct advocacy OF the free
and unlimited coinage OF silver. The sena-
tor, however, advised the democrats to
support the state ticket. He viii speak

GRAvEYARD INSURANCE.
The Prosecution Proves Fraud, But
Not Cons piracy.

MOI NouA PAEucN.
Morehead City N. g July 3l.-The third
day of the sensational trIal Tor conspirg
in life insurance was devoted to proving
the physical and financial condition Of
Charles Arthur one of the alleged victims
If the evidence for the prosecution is not
rebutted, Arthur is proved to have been
a pauper and almost a living skeleton
Fraud Is proved by the evidence as Il
stands, but as yet there is no proof of con-
spiracy.
w. L. Arendell was put on the stand
again this morning. He testified that
Charles Arthur was q walking skeleton,
and the nearest to dead man he ever
saw alive. The Justice said this did not
show conspiracy, and further evidence was
ruled out.
1t is a matter of record that Arthur was
a pauper and received 81 a month from
the county fund, and that ne was an OBJ
ject Uf charity for the citizens of More
head City and Beaufort.
DR.. l.. w. Perkins, the last man arrest
ed is the mayor of Newport, and ex-
town constable of Morehead City. At the
beginning of the season, Perkins was in
charge of the police department of the
Atlantic hotel
Here and in Beaufort people are dis
cussing the sensational arrests, but it
seems they withhold their opinion until
all the evidence has been brought out
They say prominent citizens should not
be condemned as guilty of these dark
crimes until strong proof has been Of
fered. The prosecution claims to have
this proof The attorneys for the defense
say ther has been no evidence to prove
conspiracy and as yet no case has been
made out
