THREATS NO LONGER HEARD.
The Report That Wilcox Has Been Removed to
Norfolk Denied.
(By the Associated Press

Elizabeth City, n c., Dec. 30.-The
excitement over the Cropsey case is
dying out, and business is being resumed.
The talk of lynching James Wilcox is
heard no longer, the people having de-
cided to permit the law to take it's
course. The Citizens Committee and So
licitor Ward are collecting evidence
against Wilcox to present to the grand
jury when it meets in March next.
There has been a report for the past
twenty-four hours that Wilcox had been
removed to Norfolk, Va, for safe keep
ing, the authorities fearing that the peo-
pie would attack the jail Tonight
Sheriff Grandy denied this. Wilcox is
still in Jail here, and the town authori-
ties expect no further trouble.
/ Solicitor Ward has insisted that Will
cox be given a preliminary hearing next
Wednesday. He was anxious that it
should be held today, but E. F. Aydlett,
who represents Wilcox, demurred, saying
that he had not had an opportunity to
consult with Wilcox's father, who is i'll
at his home. 1t is more than probable
that Mr. Aydlett will waive the prelimin-
airy hearing and allow the case to go
direct to the grand jury.
Any attempt to get Wilcox out on bail
will be resisted by Solicitor Ward.
Chairman Greenleaf and the~@other
members of the Citizens Committee as
sert that they have much additional evil
dence, of which lie public is in ignor-
ance. The .paSst important piece of evil
dence. Which the committee has, is an
empty whiskey bottle found on the river
bank in front of the Cropsey home. A
local saloon keeper has identified the
bottle as having been sold by him, and
has also stated that he sold one like it
to Wilcox.
Wilcox is still in Jail and refuses alb
solutely to make any statement regard
ing his conduct on the night Miss Crop
sey disappeared.

Especial to News and Observer
Elon College, N c., Dec 30.-John
Brady, the negro who shot and killed E.
A. Smith, of Elon College, on Christmas
day, as reported in the News and OBJ
server, was caught in Charlotte Sunday
The shooting, which occurred in a
drunken brawl at the home of Deck
Whitsell, about three miles from Elon
College, resulted in the death of Smith
who, at the time was endeavoring to
quiet the mob.
Sheriff Kernodle, of Graham, and Prof.

communicated with chiefs of police at
different points, and Sunday afternoon
Prof. Holleman received a telegram from
the chief of police of Salisbury, saying
that he had captured them in Charlotte.

left Elon college Sunday night for Char
lotte to take the prisoners in custody.
They will probably be lodged in the

The Freshet at Richmond.

Richmond, Va, Dec. 30.-There has
the James river last night and today.
The people in the lower part of the city
are moving out, and the wharves at
Rockets, are under wafer. The ex-
IRENE lower part of the city is cut off.
Owing to the fact that the wires are
down along the James river division of
the Chesapeake and Ohio, nothing can
be learned definitely of the conditions
above. 1t is expected. barring calcula-
lions on presidents, that the water here
will reach it's height about midnight, and
fears are that the freshet will be the
heaviest in years. No fatalities have
been reported. $685. -
The .Rappahannock TOOK a Tremendous
riSe, putting the Fredericksburg Gas
water and plunging the city into dark
ness. Mr.. Hart at Hazelrun had to
take his family out of his house on horse
back.
Luray reports a great freshet in the
Shenandoah, which has seriously inter-
ferred with the running of trains.
At 11;30 tonight James River was still
rising. The water in the streets at the
new Chesapeake and Ohio and Seaboard
Air Line depot and the Trigg Ship Yards
are partially submerged. So far the
gas works and the electric light plants
are safe.
There will be no very serious damage

DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
CHARITY and Children.)

Until we were brought into close con-
tact with the conditions which prevail
in this highly favored Piedmont region,
we were disposed to laugh to socrn the
advice so often given by editors and
others to their readers of the necessity
to diversity their crops and not depend
on one or two things for a living. But
we are face to face with condition this
year which, as Hon. Peter Sterling says,
is not a theory In the East, with which
we are quite familiar, the cry of dis
tress comes from all classes. The farm
ers have made a we'll nigh total fail
ure. and the merchants are equally hard
run, of course, as they depend on the cot
ton crop to meet their obligations. Here
in this section, at least, there is no
distress and but little complaint. The
wheat crop of last spring was excel
lent, and will help greatly to tide over
the lightness OF the corn crop OF the
fall and by next June wheat harvest
farmers win get solidly on their feet.
Then we have the other crops, such as
hay. peas and vegetables common TO
grain country, to rely upon. 1t is hard to
go into cotton raising at oil without stak-
ing too much upon it. 1t is a seductive
business and lures into danger. we
have tried it to our sorrow We do
not know whether our eastern friends can
diversity or not as they do here, though
we are sure they can raise other crops
besides cotton and corn, and we are
lot disposed to lecture them, but we do
know that the farmers of this section OF
the State are great deal better OIL
than those where cotton is king, and we
honestly believe the old monarch should
be dethroned, for he is remorseless ty-
rant. Our people in this section make
money on wheat, and we doubt that the
crop will average ten bushels to the acre
at that If we were in cotton coun-
try we would certainly try this year Tor
a big crop of wheat and oats.
