Wilson, n. c., Dec. 20.-(Special.)-
A very sad death occurred here yester-
day about - O'Clock in the day. Mr..
7 Richard Smith, special agent of the
Norwitch Fire Insurance Company, had
baen here for several days on the sicR
LIST and under the care of physician.
He was unable to sleep and on Sunday
morning he left the office of DR.. Jones
IN yet ..some fresh air" as he expressed
If. and when next seen he was lying by
tho roadside about mile from town
with bullet through his brain and the
nistol with which the deed was done
hv his side. 1t was perfectly evident
that the fatal shot was fired by his own
hand. He was carried to the hotel at
once and every attention given, but ne
died in short while without regalnlnS
consciousness. The father and uncle
came from Petersburg, Va, last night
and took the body nome where it VIII
be inferred. The young man was oniy
about q years of age; held most re-
srDnsibIe position and was esteemed ana
liked by all who knew him. There was
no reason known for the rash act, ana
it is believed that his mind was tenn
corarily unhinge, ny sleeplessness.
Mr.. Allen. the manager of the Rich
mond, Maury StenAEery, at TINS
place, died Sunday evening Of consump-
ton. He had been resident OF this
place for only year or so, but IN that
time had formed many strong ties OF
friendship by his sterling character
and pleasant disposition. He leaves
wife and six children. His remains
have been taken to Lynchburg, Va, his
old home, for interment.

THE late superintendent of the CEN
sus shows that in reduced rates for
passenger and freight service the rail-
ways of America in the last ten
years have lost not less than $3.50, 000,-
600 of income, an average of SIS, 000,-
600 per annum. He also shows that
the rates in this country are far below
those charged in Europe. For exam
pie, he shows that if the rates prevail
on the London & Northwestern were
charged by the Pennsylvania system
the earnings of that one system alone
would be annually swelled not less
than S12, 900, 900.

Says Times VIII Grow Worss Before Inn
provement IL shown.


New York, Feb. l.-Chauncey M. De-
pew in an interview predicts better
times, but says they will become worse
before they improve and that an extra
session Of congress must be called TO
settle the policies in regard to the tariff,
currency and foreign affairs before
there is any improvement in existing
conditions. Continuing. he said:
I'VE have had three years OF financial
panic. The result is a loss OF credit and
impaired confidence. We find. too. that
there is no foreign money coming into the
country-neither are foreigners interested
in any OF our new enterprises. The enor-
nous amount OF money deposited In our
own banks and trust companies Is locked
up and remains idle. Manufacturers fear
TO accumulate stocks. and work only on
the hand-to-mouth principle. Merchants
fear to burden themselves, and buy merely
for their immediate needs. The outputs
from iron and coal mines are reduced to
a minimum. Blast and coke furnaces are
going but little. The tonnage OF railroads
the most significant OF all fgures-proves
how abnormally light is the movement OF
internal commerce. Prosperity depends on
the purchasing power OF the people. When
times are good the vast army Of wage
earners spend freely, but now economy is
the word and the barest necessities are
purchased. This slackened demand on the
wage-earner and his opportunities for
work grow less and less. Privation cannot
be confined TO one class alone. Hard times
among the workingmen are invariably tho
symptom Of hard times among everybody.
And so the country at large Is undergoing
a season of hardship and depression. The
situation we are called upon TO face is
scarcely less grave than actual war. Con-
gress must not shirk its responsibilities. 1t
should find means TO fight the danger that
threatens us as a people. Times will grow
worse until congress acts. If in our extra
session a moderate tariff bill is passed in
dustries paralyZed will be revived, the
profits of the farm returned 10 the farmer
and there will be change for the better
all around. Such measure once passed
and it certainly will be-will remain good
for four years. BY next fall there viii be
an unprecedented revival in all branches
of business. After the tariff there should
be some legislative action in regard TO our
currency which will do away with such
possibilities as came to the surface in the
late campaign and which arise from nom
elastic currency. 1t was this quality of cur
rency which led so many honest men last
November to vote for a change which
promised them better monetary conditions
This legislation will give confidence to in
vestors. money lenders and capitalists"
