TO NEWPORT news

Answer Charges.

Arrests Are Made-Former Part
ner is Lenient, but Warrant
Must Stand.
Especial pisoatch to The Times. J

NEWPORT NEWS, VA, July "a
Chief of Police Johnson returned this
morning from Baltimore with Fred
Moore, the merchant who left the city
last Saturday after borrowing mone1
in various amounts from every business
man on Washington Avenue who would
let him have it.
Shortly after Moore's arrival, the Chief
took him out to see his wife, who was
Miss Jessie Grey. The lady's father was
upon the doorstep when the twain az
rived, and made personal and violent
assault upon Moore, but was pulled off
by the chief. who, however, made no
arrests, probably deeming Mr.. Grey
morally justified.
Moore's former partner. w. NJ. Parker,
a genial and good-hearted gentleman,
who has been the worst sufferer from
the mans conduct. Is disposed to relent.
and this morning wanted to withdraw
the warrant he had sworn out, charging
forgery. The Commemorative Attorney.
however, refused to permit the case to
drop SO easily, and the warrant stands.
The case will probably come up Sat
urday.
The injured partner sent Moore his
breakfast this morning, and it would
surprise no one If he should go on his
bond Moore claims that he is innocent
and never intended to beat anybody out
Of anything.

in the employ Of corporations may not
lawfully use free passes, Judge Brown
is local attorney for the Southern Rail
way, hence his resignation. He has been
a member of the Hospital Board for a
long time and has made q, very faithful
officer. Governor Montague told Judge
Brown; that it was with great reluctance
that he accepted his resignation.

WALLS BEGAN TO FALL
Serious Damage to Building Occupied

by Flanhart Printing Company.
The walls of the two-story brick build
ing on East Franklin Street occupied by
the Flanhart Printing Co. began to
crumble yesterday morning. as the result
of excavations being made next door
and it looked at one time as If the en-
trio structure would go to the ground.
The building occupied dou-
BILE lot, Nos. 13l6-131s East Frank
lin Street and Immediately adj
Joining it excavations are being made
for the new plant Of the Pelouze Paper
and Type Foundry. The negro work
men had dug away the support from I'M
der the eastern wall and quite natural
iv the bricks sank down. A big block
of the wall tumbled in on the work
men, scattering them right and left,
but injuring none.
The portion of the wall which was car
ried away was near the corner of the
building. where the Office was situated
An iron safe and valuable books and
papers came near going down also, but
somehow succeeded in staying fast The
front wall Of the place was bulged out
and cracks ran in different directions
The negroes absolutely refused to go
back to work until the building could
be propped up.
The loss to Mr.. F'lanhart. who had not
arrived at the office when the accident
occurred. and who did not learn OF 1t
until later in the day, will be severe. He
will, of course, have to move out at
once and it appears probably that the en-
tire building will have to be pulled down
BESIDES this he had a lot OF special con-
tracts on hand which he may have to
forfeit Considerable of the work in his
mace was done for the city and the State.
Tie presses and other machinery, it is
thought, can be gotten out before any
damage is done to them.
