The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1898-05-24

Doubtless all the Chatterers have
heard Of the death of Ensign Worth
Bagley, who was killed by the Span
iards at Oardenas, May 18th, and as /
happened to be in Raleigh on May
10th, the day of his funeral, l will,
with Aunt Jennie's permission, give
them a description Of it.
Is was during, OF just after one Of
the most brilliant electric storms in the
history of Raleigh, that the remains Of
the young hero reached the city. The
thunders doomed like the roar Of can
mons, and the voice Of the Storm King
was not unlike the noise Of battle
which he loved. The casket was car
ried to the home Of Mrs. Bagley, the
mother of the dead Easign, and there
remained until 300 p. m. Then it was
carried to the Capitol. The funeral
car was drawn by six black horses,
appropriately C~aparisoned. The sol
diers from Camp Grimes marched be
hind and such a crowd Of people has
seldom il ever been cen at q funeral
in Raleigh. Six soldiers carried the
casket from the capitol gate and placed
it in the rotuuda OF the capitol where
it was literally buried in f0werR..
ALI the ministers in the city, the eff
GERS of the army in full uniform, the
.L5OO soldiers, several hundred graded
school children, several hundred A. 6
n. College cadets, and thousands Of
oEner people crowded around the Capt.
toll, filed up Fayetteville street for al
most q block, and thronged all the
streets around the Capitol. Several
songs were sung and prayers offered.
Toe people thronged through the CAPT
toll to get a glimpse of the casket and
flowers. About 4:3O the procession
about a mile long, probably more than
a mile-left the Capitol for the GENE
terry. The cannon was fired eleven
times as the procession moved on, for,
by special orders from Washington,
Ensign Bagley was buried with all the
funeral honors of a Brigadier General.
When the casket reached the c5me-
terry, the soldiers formed around the
grave, and the A & 81, students and
school children marched by, as did
also the Confederate veterans. Again
prayers were offered, hymns sung and
the grave was filled. The grave itself

ENDS THE LAND LITIGATION.
Final DEGREES Filed In Cases In
vOlving Railway Grants.


Judge Sanborn filed final DEGREES in tn.
United States circuit court yesterday in the
two suits Of Edwin H. McHenry and Frank
G. Bigelow, successors of the former re-
ceivers of the Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany, against the st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba Railway Company ct al. The two
DEGREES finally dispose of the litigation, in
volving the land grants to the two railroad
companies that has been pending in the
courts in one form or another for nearly ten
years, and are the result of an adjustment
that was made in similar suit in the United
States supreme court about year ago. Judge
Sanborn finds that the lands acquired by the
plaintiffs under an act of congress in 1864 for
the construction of a railroad line are their 3
in fee simple, that the defendants have no
right or title in them and that any instru>
ment conveying ony of the lands, signed
by state officers, was unauthorized and that
the lands must be re-conveyed back to the
plaintiffs
In regard to the second lot of lands in
volved, Judge Sanborn finds that they were
acquired by the st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba Railway company through the act
of congress granting certain lands to the state
for railroad purposes The plaintiffs have no
defendants is confirmed. The lands involv-
ed lie along the lines Of the Northern Pa
cifc and the Manitoba, now the Great North
ern, in this state and the suits grew out of
a conflict Of claims arising from the two
grants. One of the attorneys interested in
the suits said last night that the adjustment
and the ending Of the suits had been most
satisfactory one to both railroad companies
During the time that the litigation has
been going on. the sale Of lands has bsen
continued by both companies, purchasers be-
ing guaranteed clear title in the end, and
it is that this guarantee may be carried
out that a re-conveyance of lands, that
were transferred on the authority of state Of
fcers, is ordered in the DEGREES.

"A supply of examining cards were received
from Washington yesterday, and the exam
lining officer made considerable progress. The
work of the non-commissioned officers who
conduct the physical examination is quite
thorough Out of all the men rejected, only a
few have been rejected by the physician. so
thorough has been the preliminary scrutiny

ting to him, but he had passed It over.
and later she had left him. He had
corresponded with her in vain en-
deavor to have her return, but without
avail, and during the holidays he had
decided to get divorce.
After Mr. Stocking had told his story
the discrimination was taken up by
Mr.. Tighe, and the greater part of the
afternoon was taken up in introducing
and reading the letters that Mr.. Stock
ing had written to his wife after she
had left him.
There were but few Of these letters
in which Mr.. Stocking did not refer to
his mother-in-law and express his be-
lief that but for her his life with his
wife would be happy one. In one he
imrlored her to return to him and sever
connections with her mother for a short
time, at least in order that his theory
in regard to her might be tested. He
said that If he was right then all we'll
and good, and If he was in the wrong,
he would most graciously acknowledge
that fact In the letters he also made
many references to the efforts on his
part to give his wife all that she might
desire to make her happy and content
ed.
In answer to questions propounded by
Attorney Tig'he, Mr.. Stocking said that
he had talked with his attorney about
his domestic relations and had been
told that no court would hold that he
must go through life with a mother
in law tied to him. He denied that he
had gone to his attorney to consult with
him on that subject, but said that 1t
had come up in connection with other
business.
In one letter Mr.. Stocking expressed
his feelings for his wife in most az
fectionate terms, and then told her
that he must insist mildly, but very
firmly, that she resume her place by
his side, and in the event she did not,
that he must adopt the only course left
open to him.
Mr.. Stocking was still on the stand
and the letters were still the founda-
ton for Attorney Tighe's questions on
cross-examination, when court adjourn
ed for the day.

BICKEL WANTS A SHARE
BEGINS ACTION AGAINST RECEIV-
ERS SHEEHAN AND DICKSON
Alleges That He Gave Up the As
signeeship With the Understand
ing That He Was to Get Half the
Fees of the Receivers, and He
Wants His Half-Little Chance
of Changing the Receivership.

William F. Bickel is the plaintiff in
an action begun in the district court
yesterday against T. D. Sheehan and
+. N. Dickson, in which he asks judS-
ment in his favor in the sum of $1,000.
In his complaint he recites the as
signing of the Minnesota Savings bank
to him, and says that he gave up the
assigneeship at the request of Sheehan
and Dickson, and their friends, and
was Instrumental in having them ap
pointed receivers with the understand
ing that they were to divide with him
all allowances and fees that might
come to them under the receivership.
He alleges that the receivers have
been allowed $4,000, and that under his
agreement with them there is due him
the sum Of $4,000, but that no part Of
it has been paid.
One Of the receivers said yesterday
about the efforts of some of the de-
positors to have them removed, that
the receivers could only be removed for
good aid sufficient cause and he did
not think any satisfactory reason had
been advanced for their removal.
THE only ground upon which de-
mand for our removal is based is that
the present receivers are administer
ing the trust too extensively. AS a
matter Of fact we have not received
dollar for attorneys fees, which would
amount to a great deal more than the
allowance made by the court If We
SO desired, we could circulate d pet ton
and get all the names we desired for
our retention, but we do not think it
is necessary.
Zone Of the men named to act as re-
ceiver, and who was quoted as having
had $1,000 in the bank, is interested to
the extent of minus $500. We hold his
note for that amount, which he has re-
fused to pay. Another one, who is
exceedingly loud-mouthed, has his
notes to the tune Of $1,000 in the bank -
