interests in the Diamond paper mills and the
American strawboard plants in Anderson,
was here yesterday, and in discussing trusts
predicted that the days of large trusts are
numbered. Mr.. Fairbanks said: Investors
have stomach full of trusts. Trust stocks
are down from 10 to 20 points, and investors
don't bite like they did. The Juror is wear

IL 1t Is possible to put through any trust
deal on a large scale in the future. There
is going to be lull in trust operations for
some months, at least. while people who
have their money invested and to invest
are away at the summer resorts. There
may be possible revival in the fall, but not
till then. In the meanwhile the little pro-
motors will keep the air full of trust talk,
but YOU will discover that it will be mainly

SOLVING THE MYSTERY
CLEW THAT MAY LEAD TO DISCOV-
ERY OF MRS. ADAMs'S MURDERER.
Person who Sent Poison to Barnet
Sent the Bottle to COrnish-Mrs.
MOIineux Said to BE Ill.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6-The World to-mor-
row will publish the following: These new
points were developed yesterday (Friday) in
the poisoning mystery: Professor Witthaus
found that KutnoWs powder was mixed
with the cyanide of mercury in the false
bromo settler bottle sent to Harry Cornish
the mixture which killed Mrs. Adams. This
is considered most important as making abb
sOlutely certain that the sender of the
poison TO Cornish was one and the same
with the sender of cyanide of mercury to
Henry Crossman Barnet in a Kutnows
powder box.
The startling statement was made on the
authority of the trained nurse who attended
Barnet that still another attempt had been
made on his life, showing that the poisoner
was determined in his murderous purpose
and persisted until on the second attempt
he was successful The wife of Roland B.
Molineux is now very i'll. Her condition was
described as pitiable by her sisters. Mrs.
Molineux received knowledge during the
day that the police had found a letter
signed. with love- Blanche" written by
Mrs. MoineuX to Mr.. Barnet, and that this
letter had been submitted to a handwriting
expert for comparison with the writing on
the package containing the holder and false
bromo settler bottle sent to Cornish. She
became aware also that Investigations were
being made into her past, her acquaintance
with Barnet and her marriage to Molineux
Captain McClusky announced that the let

fairly large gathering of bicycle enthusiasts
to the big amphitheater. The race promises
to be one of the most exciting events in the
history of cycling, and a broken record is
looked for. Burns w. Pierce, of Boston,
one of the contestants, holds the record OF
457 miles 176 yards, he having ridden that dis
lance in the first twenty-four hours of the
recent six days contest which was won By
Charles W. Miller of Chicago. OF the nine

"TAR-HEEL" MEASURES.
Negroes to support Their own schools
Separate Coaches.

RALEIGH, N. c., Jan. 6-Two bills have
been introduced in the House of the North
Carolina Legislature requiring all railroads
in the State to operate separate coaches for
white and colored passengers. One of the
bills is an exact copy of the law now in
force in Tennessee, and which has been de-
clared constitutional. The other is similar
to it, except that it provides that any
first-class coach may be divided into COM
partments. separated by substantial par
tition, in lieu of separate coaches"
A bill also was introduced in the House
to amend the state Constitution so as to
provide that ''all the moneys arising f1om
the taxation of the polls and property of
the white race FOR public schools shall be
appropriated to the support of the public
schools of the white race, and all moneys
arising from taxation of polls and prop
erty of the colored race for public schools
shall be appropriated to the support of the
public schools of the colOred race" The
school fund is now proportional according
to population, the negroes getting as much
per capita as the white people, though they
pay only about 10 per cent. of the taxes.
