several dispatches from North carolina
saving that nothing could prevent Il

personal nature, and nothing more con-
corning them will be given out for pup"

ed a lengthy special from Il staff cor
respondent that is Il SANDER on the
Democracy of North Carolina. The au-
thor of the article is partial in his every
free statement, and gives his position
away by many expressions OF when me
following is n sample:
Apparently the whites and blacks
are on the most friendly terms with
each other, and in every place in the
State visited by the Star correspondent
the men of the two races acted as though
they were on the same level
More than one public speaker has
urged from the stump that the Cover

North Carolinians are indignant ut
the article. and Republicans as well as
Democrats regret that any newspaper
should so misrepresent the true state
of affairs
No one believes the latter mentioned
statement, but there is some curiosity
to know with whom he is stopping, since
he says men of the two races are on the
same level.

SHERIFF ..PINTED" HIS GUN.

Sheriff Ham Jones was Saturday
night technically guilty of assault upon
a negro man, George Branch.
1t seems that Jones had hired George
Branch and Jim Jones, to make music
for him at a pOw-wow in East Raleigh
IL few nights before, probably Friday
night. He had not paid them, though.
SO Saturday night when they found him
in the bar i'm the Capital Club building

Some argument followed, during which
Sheriff Jones pulled out his pistol and
put it to George Branch's side.

Puts in His Lip to Dispute Major En-

Being Roughly Handled.


Scotland Neck, n. c., Oct. 31.--(Spe-
ial.)-Major Emry was in crowd at
Halifax discussing in a friendly way
the political situation and answering
some questions, when a negro, jim Nor
ris, practically disputed Major Emry's
word The insult was about to be resent
cd by a friend of Emry who was near
Morris. There was considerable commo-
ton for about two minutes. Morris
broke away and ran through the front
door of the court house. coming out the
back door, and made his escape.
He was chased and if caught would
have Jared badly. Other negroes did
not seem to take much hand.
The white people of this section do
not intend to put up with negro insults
or have negro domination any longer,
and will resent all such at any cost.

THE TERESA Is COMING
On Her Way to Norfolk Under Her
Own Steam.

Washington, Oct. 31.-The Navy De-
partment has received telegram from
Caimanera announcing the sailing from
that. place for Hampton Roads of the
Maria Teresa, which is up to this time
the only one of the Spanish ships sunk
at Santiago to be floated. She is under
command of Captain Harris, who was
detached from command of the Vulcan
for that purpose. The Teresa sailed
from Caimenera at o'clock yesterday
morning with the Vulcan and the
Leonidas. These vessels will escort the
Teresa most of the way to Norfolk. The
Cincinnati also started with the Teresa.
but she was to go only as far as Cape
Maysi and thence across to Port An
tonic. 1t is probable that with fa,r
weather the Teresa will reach Hampton
Roads about Tuesday of next week.
There she will be surveyed by the Naval
Board. which will report to the Depart
ment the probable cost of putting her
into condition for naval service. The
adyices SO far received at the Depart
ment indicate that this is going to be an
expensive undertaking, but nevertheless
it will be carried forward as much
from sentimental as practical consid-
eratiOns.
