COMMISSION MEETS TUESDAY.
Will it Again Reopen the Passenger
Rate Question?

Another meeting of the Railroad Com
mission is called for next Tuesday, by
Chairman Caldwell
That day is indicated as the time at
which exceptions to the new firewood
rate will be heard. 1t is not known what
other matters will come before the Com
mission at this meeting. 1t has been in
timated that the passenger rate ques-
ton may be opened up again, but this
report cannot be verified.
All the railroads affected by the new
passenger rate have given notice of their
intention to appeal to the Superior court.
the Seaboard filed it's notice last week.
This was followed by the Atlantic Coast
Line Friday and the Southern yester-
day.
1T was generally supposed that the
Southern, following its usual custom.
would ask its man Simonton for an in
junction against the Commission to pre-
vent it's putting the new rate into effect
But it seems that at the last moment
they have thought better of it and de-
cided to follow the examples set them by
the other roads.

Fine Shape.

'"rhe political situation in eastern
North Carolina rs much improved" said
Mr.. Donnell Gillian, chairman of the
Democratic committee in Edgecombe
county yesterday. The Populists i'll my
county are growing lukewarm. Some of
them will return to the Democratic par
ty and those who do not have lost zeal
in the Populist movement. This is due
to three causes: % The wavering and
inconsistent policy of their leaders; (2l
fusion with the very people they have
been fighting for the past % years, and
81 negroes in control of the county af-
fairs-negro officers, magistrates and
postmasters. The Populists in our
county are among our best people and
they have never approved Of this sort
of thing.
I'VE held a meeting of our county cont
mittee last week and | was greatly
pleased to find the Democrats most
hopeful and enthusiastic. The spirit
they manifested and the reports they
made We're most encouraging. They in
structed me to call county convention
for May 4th. This call Will be made on
the lines laid down by the State COM
mittee in its address recently issued.

GEORGIA BANKERS RELEASED
Governor Russell Refuses to Honor the
Requisition for Them.

The question OF extradition was ar
gued very thoroughly before the Govern.
or, the hearing lasting for over an hour.
The State of Georgia was represented
by +. G.. l.. Harris and the defendants
by Gillian and Gillian and by ], T
Martin.
The end of the matter was that the
Governor refused to grant the requisi-
ton papers to take the men back TO
Georgia. 1t was found in Mehegan's
case that the warrant charges no crmi-
nal offence, and in the case against La
than the warrant was sworn out on in
formation and belief. For these reasons
the paper were held insufficient and the
requsition refused.
The reuuisitions are granted without
prejudice and Georgia can correct tho
mistake if they see fit and apply again
From the executive office the attor-
news went over to the Supreme court
room and saw Associate Justice Walter
Clark who ISSUED the bench warrant I'M.
on which Mehehgan and Latham were
arrested The warrant was returnable
before Justice Clark next Tuesday after
noon at o'clock. However, when he
learned of the Governors decision no
dismissed the warrant and ordered that
both of the defendants be released from
custody.

The trouble arose from letter received
in Abbeville from another Georgia bank

The action of the Governor in Niche
gans case was based upon the decision
Oh InR supreme COURT OF Georgia, CORY
VS.. State of Georgia, 80 Geo. Rep, IN
which it was held that Sec. 4421 Code of
Georgia, prohibiting assignments of in
solvent banks. applied only to banks in
coroprated under the laws of that State.
In this case the Bank of Albbeville was
private bank and was not, as the Gov
ernor held. within the purview of the
statute. In Latham's case the reaui-
sition was denied for the reason that the
affidavit. upon which the same was
made was made upon information and
belief, and therefore insufficient accord
ing to the uniform decisions of the
courts. Many years ago this principle
was clearly and f0rcibly expressed in
correspondence on the part of Governor
Seward. of New York, to the Governor
of Georgia in requisition proceedings. In
addition to the above it was considered
by the Governor that the requisition pa
pers in both cases We're informal in
