MADE a BIG HAUL. L,
Burglars Secure -Four Thousand Dol
lars Worth Of Jewelry. Es.

Special from Durham, N. O., says:
Two daring burglarios woro committed
at the residences Of Gen. Julian s. Carr
and Judge r. w. Winston, in this city,
Tuesday night.
At Gen. Carr's tho loss will amount
to So, 800 to $4,000. The burglar Of
burglars entered Gen. Oarr's bedroom
and stole diamond stud from shirt
beside tho bed on which the general
was shopping. This diamond ornament
was valued at 81 1000, and was regis
tered stonc. It>was stolen during the
worlds fair at Ohioago, but was after
ward recovered by Pinkorton mon. A
gold watch belonging to Cons Carr, val
ued at $500; gold watch belonging to
Mrs. Carr, valued at 500; a diamond
scarf pin, pair Of gold cuff buttons,
set with diamonds, belonging to- Clai.
born Carr; gold earrings, gold brooches,
etc., wero taken.
1t is notknown what timo tho 1sob
berry occurred. Not a cluo was loft bo-
hind to indicate how the guilty party
got in or out of tho residence. Some Of
our people think it was evidently the
work of q professional.
At tho residence Of Judge Winston,
as was the case at Con. ,Carr's, it is not
known in what way entrance was made.
Two watches, a gold one and child's
watch, two gold necklaces, two gold
pins and Mrs. Winston's jewel case
were stolen. All Of these wero found
this morning near a side gate in tho
back yard. whore it is supposed they
were dropped by the burglar in his
flight.
The front door Of the residence was
found open this morning and it is
thought that exitwas made in this way.
In neither Of the two robberies were tho
occupants Of these households in the
least disturbed, and knew nothing Of it
until thcy awoko tho next morn

Mr.. QUITS Starts His Book Of
ReveIations."
REASONS OF HIS RETlcENcE.
He Reviews His Suspension and
Charges Members Of the
Board Of Control With
Breaking Promises.

Mr.. d. A. G, QUITS gave out Thurs
day tho first Of series of lottors no has
written about tho disponsary. In tho
introduction he makes the following OK
planation Of why he has not heretofore
madc public tho ohargos he ow.brings:
During my years Of sorvice in the
dispcnsary I havc soon q number Of
things done which I knew were wrong.
These reported to members Of the
board, who wero, I knew, honost, able
and pure. Thoy thought, however,
that it was bost to say nothing publicly
about tho wrong-dolng until mon like
themselves were a majority Of the
board. They believed in tho dispen-
sary and earnestly strovc to mako it a
success. In their judgment the dispen-
sary could not Withstand tho effect of
such exposures, if its control was in the
hands Of the mon against whom these
exposures were made. They wanted to
save the law for the great potential
good that was in it. But as tho contrary
element has grown so confident Of its
power that it has goue to turning honest
mon out Of Office at tho disponsary, 30
as to fill all places with its tools, thus
facilitating tho carrying out of it's plans,
| deem it my duty to make public all
l know, 80 as to expose those men,
doeming it better that the disponsary
should die than to continue undor their
control, but hoping that tho cffeot of
my criticism will be to drive such mon
out Of tho dispensary and place its man
agcmont in the hands of mon above re-
proaoh. make this statement because
| do not wish to be considered sore
hcad or as exposing things l condoned
as long as held Office"
He first shows that he had no intent
to do wrong in selling a bottle Of con-
traband, that he was ordered to do 80 by
his superior officer and that he thought
ho was carrying out the wishes of the
board and thattw members Of the board
80 assert.
Ho next charges that Miles, Hasel-
don and Robinson promised to give him
hearing before voting on the question
Of his permanent suspension and that
they failed to keep their promises.
I1o HbSorCS luaG TIC ,UlaJOrlGy I1OtlOn
is conspiring to scoure complete control
of the dispensary.
Ho asserts that Chairman Miles has
shown favoritism to Shipping Clerk
Black, who has been reported for being
drunk and disorderly in the dispensary,
against rulo of tho board, but who was
not disciplined.
He charges Chairman Miles with
partiality to This nephew, Receiving
Clerk Young, who va, reported for ipss
competency and making serious errors
in counting shipments roceivod at tho
disponsary.
Friday Mr.. QUITS gave out another
installment of his "Book Of Revola-
tions," and there is more to follow.
His Revelations" make rich, rare and
racy reading, but we have not tho space
to publish them. He makes many
charges against many people, all Of
which is backed up by evidence which
seems, and which he claims, to be ire
futabe. We shall see.

mont of 2l0 West Fifteenth street.
The letters forming the name are not
distinct. They are partly washed out
and little blurred. Tho ~. j. N" Of

Identification of the owner.

Hold Your Cotton.

Nell's reduction Of his crop estimate
from IL, 900, 900 to 10000, 600 bales can
hardly be considered ''bearish,' 2
though that seems to have been its
effect on the market. He always over
estimates the yield, and his revised
figures would indicate a crop not over
$500, 900 bales. But, assuming that
he is correct, this would mako tho crop
o million and quarter bales below that
OF last year. Now consider the further
facts that cotton goods are in great de-
mand and rising, that every available
spindle is running, that the consump-
tion Of cotton in this country will in.
