DEMOCRATS MAY FIGHT
RACE TROUBLE IN NORTH CAROLINA
NOT YET ADJUSTED.
Trouble Predicted If Negroes Are
Registration Book Missing.

WILMINGTON, N. c., Nov. 2.--The situa-
ton is practically unchanged. The Star will
tomorrow print a card from Elijah Hew-
lett now sheriff in New Hanover county,
and who would have been renominated if
any Republican county ticket had been
brought out, in which he declares that
under no circumstances will he be a candi-
date. He also says that under existing con-
ditions no Republican county ticket should
be nominated The present indication is that
there will be no Republican ticket for the
county Offices though there is a suspicion
that the present negro register of deeds may
be an individual candidate, but that his
ticket will not be made until the morning
of the election. Should this suspicion become
a reality it is believed it will provoke
trouble as the Democrats will consider it a
violation of the compromise heretofore de-
scribed in the dispatches.
It does not need much stimulating mater
ial to increase the prevailing feeling here
and when the chairman of the Democratic
executive committee of Columbus, county
adjoining New Hanover, arrived here to-
day and reported that the registration book
of North Williams precinct, In that county,
could not be found, it added fuel to the
flames. The precinct mentioned gave 1T
Democratic majority in 1896 and 1t Is esti-
mated that the majority next Tuesday
should be over two hundred. AS these two
hundred votes would probably eject twelve
Democratic state senators and the board of
registration is controlled by the fusionists,
the Importance of the incident is manifest.
This afternoon the Democrats sent {. lawyer
to Columbus county to take prompt action
and If the registration book is not forth
coming the question will be brought before
q Supreme Court judge Immediately and he
will be compelled, under the law, to show
that an election will be held in North Will
liams precinct. The excitement in Columbus
county is so great that it is feared personal
violence may be done the custodian of the
registration book if it is not produced.

CLOSE GAME OF FOOTBALL.
Knicl1erbockers Defeat Chicago by n
Score of II to 10.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2-The football game
between the Chicago Athletic Association
and Knickerbocl1er Athletic Club teams,
which was played this afternoon at Berkely
Oval resulted in a victory for the Knicker-
bockers by a score of II points to 10. Ow-
ing to the lateness of the hour at which
the game was begun and numerous disputes
in which several outsiders as we'll as the
players took part, the second half
lasted only seventeen minutes and then the
game was called, as it was then too dark
to distinguish the ball. The result was
surprise, as the Chicago men were looked
upon as sure winners and their appearance
was decidedly the more imposing when they
came upon the field for a brief bit of pre-
liminary work

TRANSPORT POORLY SUPPLIED.
Gen. Wood Found No Suitable Food
for sick ON the Port Victor.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA. Nov. 2-The
United States transport Port Victor was to
have left to-day at noon for the United
States with a number Of sick officers and
men. Fortunately, just before the hour
fixed for her departure, Gen. Leonard Wood,
military governor of the Department of San
tiago, went on board. To his amazement, he
found no provisions specially suitable to sick
persons, an entire lack of delcacies and an
insufficiency of medical supplies. General
Wood declares that hereafter he will pay a
personal visit to every transport before it
leaves the harbor. He thinks it very strange
that, after all the experience had here in
this line, the medical department is not able
to manage it's affairs better and that the
personal supervision of the commandinfy
general should be necessary. But General
Wood was FULLY equal 10 the emergency. He
had the vessel supplied In short order with
Red Cross stores and with an adequate
amount of other provisions, and the trans
port left the harbor in time TO pass MORO
Castle by shutdown. The Port Victor should
reach New York city on Monday next as
she is a fast boat.
