MERGER ALMOST COMPLETE.
Cotton Mill Committee Adjourns to
Meet In Three Weeks.

Greensboro, N c., November o. - The
cotton mill merger committee practically
completed its work here last night. hav-
ing finally passed upon properties offered
them, and there will be another meeting
here in about three weeks to pass upon
properties that were accepted in every
respect, except that some formalities,
such as affixing seal, ETC., to papers SUBJ
mitted, had been omitted.
At this adjourned meeting new options,
which are constantly coming in, will be
examined and passed upon by the COM
mittee A leading member of the COM
mittee gives the information that over a
hundred plants have so far been accepted
and that several which are all right ex-
cept defects in preparation above alluded
to will, upon supplying these defects, be
admitted He also says that while not a
single rattle trap" plant was seriously
considered, there were many rejected
whose physical and financial condition
were all right but the price asked was
considered too high. Many of these may
also be included in the merger at the
next meeting upon the adoption of option
price THE merger plan is an accom-
plished fact" said he. I'm every instance
we have allowed Just about the price
for each mill they would have brought
II new. The papers have been forwarded
to the underwriters in New York, or will
be in few days, and the incorporation
articles will be taken out in New jersey
In the course OF a few days.

Deputy cruppi. today announced his in
tention Of applying to the court on Mon
day for the provisional release Of the
accused.
The authorities are likely to resist this
motion. as they are not yet ready to ac-
cept the theory Of accident. Consul Gem
eral Gowdy also inclines against the acct
dent theory, but the American officials
will not take an active part In the prose-
cution.
NJ cruppis efforts are due to the in
terest which the Russian friends of the
accused have manifested In him, scores
of them having called upon Judge Gam
neval to testify to his good character.
DIR. Merlun, who first arrived upon the
scene after the tragedy, has given out
statement which strengthens the advo-
Gates of the accident theory In their be-
lief. He confirms the assertion made by
Dr. Socquot that the ball ranged upwards
and concludes that the tragedy was the
natural result OF the weapon being dis
charged accidentally by a fall to the
floor. On the other hand one of the
American officials, especially assigned to
the case, says his personal inspection OF
Mrs Cores body showed that the direc-
ton of the bullet was almost parallel with
the surface Of the earth and that the
point at which the ball emerged from
the back of the head was hardly half
inch higher than the point at which 1t
entered above the eye. This conflicts with
the theory of the French physicians and
tends to strengthen the murder theory.
Letters and kilograms in the possession
of the police show the circumstances of
the meeting on the day of the tragedy,
and exonerates Mrs. Gore from the suspi-
cions which might arise from her pres
ence in DeRydzewslSi's ROOM One OF the
letters shows that she wished to see De-
Rydzewski. This letter he answered by
telegraph, saying that he was suffering
from a sore throt, and that 1t was impos-
sible for him to go out. AS result OF
his inability to leave his ROOM Mrs. Gore
went to him. Some of the officials con-
tend that the visit was of a business ma
ture, asserting that Mrs. Cores remit
tances had not been received and that
she went to her musical friend for tenn
porary assistance. This theory is appar-
entity borne out by the statement that
check for $780, drawn to the order of Mrs.
Gore, Is said to have been found by the
police in DeRydzewsld's desk. The exist
ence of this check, however, has not been
fully established, owing to the reticence
of the police.
