Ripley's Case Goes to the Jury.
lBy the Associated Press.l

Frankfort, KY. April 1.-THE case of
Captain Garrett Ripley. the former
militia officer, charged with being an ac-
cessory before the fact in the Goebel
assassination, is now in the hands of the
jury. ]. t. O'Neal made the closing ar
gument for the defense today and was
followed by Prosecuting Attorney Frank
lin. The crowd in attendance during the
closing arguments taxed the capacity OF
the large court room to it's full limit.
Mr.. O'Neal for the defense. argued
that Ripley's greatest crime was talking
too much, and that by trying to make
himself over important he had put him
self under suspicion: but that when the
evidence was sifted there was nothing
connecting him with the conspiracy.
Mr.. Franklin, for the prosecution, dwelt
on the fact that the defendant arrived
here January 10th, the date on which
the assassination, he claimed, was de-
creed, and that he was not here Janu-
airy 18th, at the time Powers gave Yout-
sey the key to the Secretary of States
office. Judge Cantrill ordered the jury
not to consider the case tonight, but to
take it up in the jury room tomorrow

Chapel Hill, N. c., April 19.-The de-
bate between Vanderbilt and the Uni
versit ycame ffhere last night and
proved one of the strongest ever held
between this and other universities
And though the decision was in favor
Of Chapel Hill the closeness and
strength of the intellectual struggle
was shown in the fact that this decision
was not unanimous.
The subject of the debate was, IRE
solved, That combination Of capital
commonly known as trusts, are social
and economic advantage.
The debaters were:
Affirmative: b. B. Lane, Chapel Hill;
w. H. Swift, Watauga. Negative:
Thos. r. Reeves, Virginia; Robert H.
Scott, Kentucky.
All of these speakers handled the
subject with force, elegance and fire.
The arguments were original and de-
livered with telling effect. The most
salient points made were greeted with
generous outbursts of applause.
The individual and competition on the
one hand and organization and wealth
on the other were the features that
mainly engaged attention and upon
which the speakers in their arguments
laid the strongest emphasis.
Fifteen minutes We're allowed for thu,

Revising the Books FOR City
Election in May,
If You Have Moved from Your Previous Pre-
cinc', Have Come # Age, or Moved
to Raleigh You Must Register.

The city registration books were
opened yesterday and will remain open
till April q, inclusive, in order to have
a correct registration for the election to
be held on the first Tuesday in May.
Under the new election law the regis
trars will purge the registration books,
erasing the names of all persons who
have died or removed from the precinct
since the last city election, held in 1899.
Under this provision all parties who have
moved from one precinct to another, have
moved to Raleigh, or have come of age
since May 1st, of 1899, must register in
order to vote at the coming municipal
election.
On the books there are at present
ne carly 1000 names, and it is judged that
these will be increased to perhaps 1000
by the changes in registration, though as
no opposition is known to be contemplated
against the Democratic ticket some say
that they books will contain less names
The registrars and the places of regis
tration are as follows:

TO UNITE AGAIsT AMERICA.
The Spectator Thinks Europe Should Combine
Against Meddlesome Jonathon.
(By the Associated Press.


London, April 19.-The Spectator tomor-
row will discuss 1.-THE Continent and
America" taking as text portion of an
interview with Admiral Count Canevaro at
Toulon, which the Spectator, believes has
not attracted the attention it deserves.
Admiral Canevaro in concluding his ut
terances regarding the triple and dual al
liances having given Europe thirty years
of peace, said:
This fact. would perhaps. lead Euro
pean nations to consider the possibility
and necessity of uniting against America.
Africa and Asia. as the future of civili-
cation will require them to do so.'
The Spectator does not consider this
the rash outburst of the man in the
street." for Admiral Canevaro has been
Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs.
His utterance," the Spectator will say,
corresponds exactly with that of Count
Goluchowski (Austro- Hungarian Foreign
Minister) and with all the recent trend
of affairs. The annoyance of the con-
tinent with America, which is very deep,
is based upon three reasons, the first be-
ing the dread or rather the conviction
that competition with America is nearly
impossible, her wealth and energy being
100 great. Botn are employed, the con-
tinent thinks to monopolize%trade and so
to control in the end all the wealth of
the world an idea not without advocacy
among ourselves.
THE second reason" the article will
say, lis that America is sadly in the way
in Asia. The whole action of the Wash
ington Government in the Chinese mud
die points to the conclusion that although
the Americans took the Philippines, they
are not willing to see any but native
powers in control of the richest countries
of Asia.
THE third reason is Americas atti-
tude in South America She will neither
take 1t nor let anybody else. The total
result is bitter dislike of America,
mixed with dread. Our object is only to
awaken the Americans from an Illusion,
to induce them to increase their fleet
and to persuade them to think steadily
out what they are doing. They may rely
upon it that the continent will lose moth
ing by want of planning, and that, when
the alliance against America, of which
Admiral Canevaro talks is transmitted
into facts, it will be full grown and fully
armed"
