The decision of Secretary Long to
close the Schley case, and accepting
the majority finding Of the court of in
quiry, is what wss expected by I'M.
prejudiced people, and what 1t should
have been. As we have had occasion
to remark before, there should never
have been a court of inquiry. The
departments at Washington had no
complaint to make about the manner
in which the battle Of Santiago was
conducted, or its result. There was
no charge against Animal Sohloy,
and he demanded the inquiry because
his friends induced him to, or for
some reason best known to himself.
Il was not trial. and not a court. in
the general acceptance of the term.
1t was an inquiry ordered TO satisfy
the demands Of the Admiral himself,
and il was not conducted as a regular
trial. or it would not. perhaps, have
been all in favor Of Schlcy. The evil
denoe Of Sampson might not have
been excluded. and the rulings Of tine
court that were invariably in favor Of
Schley might have been somewhat
different. The court rendered YER
dict in accordance with the evidence
and facts, as the members saw it, and
this ended the inquiry demanded by
Animal Schley, conducted for Admir-
al Sohlev and wanted by no one but
Admiral Schley and his friends. That
the court did not give Admiral
Schley's story preference in the face Of
the propondersnce Of evidence is not
20 be wondered at II is never the case
to allow one mans testimony TO over
throw that of majority of the wit
nesses, and there was no reason it
sbould have been done in this case.
The people have grown tired of the
whole affair, and the inquiry was
something that has done no one good,
and mas dons considerable harm, to no
one more than Admiral Schlcy him.

said substantially what the court of
inquiry requested BY Admiral Schley

wreaked on, however, as the two adj

Admiral Dewey took pains not to lay
himself liable TO such a calamity.

The city council should provide
something during the approaching
year to heat the city hall by steam or
hot air. There are no less than ten
stoves in the building, and most of
them are kept going day and night
Throughout the winter. The amount
Of coal consumed is enormous, and
costs great deal in excess of what
the heating by furnace would cost, and

The Zenith OF Stove Perfection

The only jointless leg bottom and base
with full radiation and large ash-pan,
that has ever been made in the history
of the stove industry. The jointless leg
bottom and base makes the stove air
tight below the CRATE, which is The only
true fire-keeping principle.
The Hot Blast Alright Florence will
heat twice the space that can be heated
by any other stove on earth, at one-half
the cost. The only perfect floor heater
that has eyer been made. All features
are patented, and remember no stove
manufacturers can copy same for eigh-
teen years from date of patent.
The Hot Blast Alright Florence burns
soft coal or slack and all the smoke and
gases. No filling up of the stove pipe or
llue with SCOT. No dirt inside or outside
the house. 1t will burn hard coal and all
the gases which escape from the hard
coal base burner. 1t will burn coke just
the same as hard or soft coal 1t will
burn wood and sawdust, wet or dry. 1t
will produce less than half the ashes
than any other stove on earth, with any

Among the Railroads.

The Tarboro Southerner saws that
yesterday a COW on the track of the
East Carolina railway derailed car
loaded with logs pushed by the locomo-
tive. When this car went off the track
the engine was thrown off and it rolled
down the embankment and stood on end.
For some time travel was interrupted;
the damage done to the train would
have purchased a dozen or more cows. >
The Wilmington Dispatch says it is
strongly suspected that the negro, Ar
instead Plymouth, run over near Tar
boro on Sunday. was murdered and
propped ur on the track. OF the acct
dent. the Dispatch says: 1.-THE negro
was sitting in reclining position on a
trestle and was not seen until the engine
was very near him. The train passed
over the body and it was horribly
mangled. The body showed no signs of
life; it was cold and there was no fresh
blood. A physician who was on the
train examined the mutilated form and
gave it as his opinion that the negro
had been killed some time before the
train ran over him. Dry blood was
minutes after the body had been run
over. the wife and two children of Ply
mouth AMI two men ran up the
woman crying that he was her husband.
The body was mutilated beyond recog
nition."
