\ paragraph relative to the wreck OH the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, referring
particularly to the carload OF documents
which was III the wreck, is based upon mis-
Information. and unintentionaliy, perhaps,
does an injustice to the Republican Con
gressional committee. The paragraph states
nat .'one OF Che cars was ioaueL with cam
paign literature; that it consisted Of thou
sands Of Documents printed in Baltimore
and Philadel phia and consigned to the
Senate folding room and the Republican
headquarters. The documents Consisted
principally Of the speeches Of Senator
Caffcry. Representative Apsley and Con-
gresham Lnton." The speeches of Repre-
sentative Linton were addressed to the
Senate folding room, where q large num-
Der IF these documents have been folded
for the past two weeks on the individual
order of Senators. The shipping tag on
this consignment states distinctly For
folding room, United States Senate" The
Republican Committee is having all its doc
uments folded privately at its own eX-
peDse. and Is not handling Mr.. Linton's
speech. Inquiry at the Senate folding
room is to the effect that no Republican
literature has been folded at the Capitol
at public expense. either In this campaign
or the one of two years ago.
The North Carolina Republicans Will
meet tonight at ti,eir headquarters, No.

take part IN the election here and i'll the
State to he present tonight, whether or
not they belonged to clubs.
The North Carolina Democratic Club,

York avenue. Several speeches were made,

Clark, the author OF one Of the ablcst Of
