EASTERN INSURANCE COMPANY,
The Election of Officers and Directors. Advant-
age offered by New Company,

Especial to the News and Observer)
Washington, N. c., June 17.-Share-
holders of the Eastern Insurance Com
pany met at the home office in this city
today and perfected organization by
electing the following directors: DIR. w.
j. H. Bellamy, Wilmington; DR.. D. t.
Tayloe, Washington; Stephen c. Bragaw,
Washington; Hon. B. F. Dixon, Raj
eigh; H. Susman, Washington; George
L. Leach, Washington; DR.. F. r. Harris,
Henderson. Quite a number of share
holders were present, those absent being
representa- by proxy. TIL board of di-
rectors adjourned to meet Monday even
ing, at which time the following officers
of the company We're elected: President,
Dr. David Tayloe; vice president Geo.
T. Leach; secretary, S. c. Bragaw;
treasurer, A. M. Dumay; general man
ager, H. Susman; medical director, DR..
w. A Blount.
The company is now ready for business
and means much towards the develop
ment and upbuilding, not only of Wash
ington, but the entire State. Some of
the States most influential and best
known citizens are interested in the
company and we feel sure the sharehold-
ers have made no mistake in the selec-
tion of directors and officers. This is
the first organization ever contaminated
in the South and it is the duty of every
true, loyal North Carolinian to rally to
its support The company proposes to
do business under old line features and
every safeguard will be thrown around
every policyh holder. They operate I'M
der a four per cent legal reserve en-
abling thin to give larger surrender
value than foreign companies do. The
company's offices are the best appointed
not only in this city but we doubt if they
are surpassed in the State. The COM
pany starts out with every assurance of
success. .. Rsali

bers of the police force of Teresa, Mo-
rong Province.
The American soldiers were buried to-

separate interments.

VALUABLE DIAMOND LOST.
Peculiar Occurrence at Saltalr Last
Eyening-Wo Loses Purse.

Mrs. u. T. Groves, wife of promin-
ent contractor OF Kansas city, Is
mourning the loss Of very valuable
diamond breastpIn. The loss of the pin
is rather peculiar to say the least,
Mr. and Mrs Groves with some
friends We're bathing at Saltar and left
their valuabes at the office after the
usual custom. When they came out
the lady called nj the office for her en-
yelope and as the window she was az
was crowded, she moved over to the
other She says she was very careful
In opening the envelope and looked
into Il to see that everything was all
right. To her am azement the PIN was
gone. A careful iearch was made Tor
It. but without 81 ccess. The matter
was at once reported to the manage
ment and every effort Is being made
by the resort employees and police to
recover It, Mr.. Groves had over sSO0
in his package, but found that nothing
had been disturbed The presumption
Is that some unusually sharp CRATER
got the gem IN a manner most myster-
i0us.
This morning. while watching the
parade and paying no attention TO her
valuables, Mrs. Grundy of 2l6 North
Second West. had her hand bag cut
from her arm. AS soon as she discov-
cred her loss she reported II to the po-
lice, but 1t Is thought there is little
chance Of recovering IT, The hand bag
contained $3,l6 and a gold watch.
Three little girls were lost during the
parade, but were taken TO the police
station. where their parents found
them and took them home,

Greene came into court With Sheriff
Langeller. Judge Caron assembled the
bench at. i0So and began the reading
Of the very lengthy notes preceding his
judgment, The Judge referred TO the
case rs of great Importance II only by
reason OF the unusual proceedings en-
ployed, and went on 10 say that he
would only review his last two writs.
He then read the petitions of the prs-
oners for Writs of habeas corpus upon
which the writ was issued In ylrture OF
which the prisoners were taken out or
the hands of Jailer Vale OF Montreal,
as well as the answer thereto and the
writ itself.
The events Immediately preceding the
issue Of writs he also reviewed and
went on to concur In Judge Andrews
opinion with regard TO the sensational
manner in which the prisoners answer
was made here.
with regard TO the attacks made up
on himself, he was sure that the Amer
lean government authorities and their
agents could have had no hand In
them. The notices Of the American gov
ernments lawyers to Jailer Vale TO at
tend to delivery Of Judge Andrews
Judgment was then quoted and Wales
compliance therein noted
That judgment ipso facto dispossessed
judge Andrews OF the prisoners and
under the circumstances he Judge

quent issue OF writs Of habeas corpus
addressed to Jailer Vale after he had
taken possession OF the prisoners fol-
lowing Judge Andrews announcement.

washington, Aug lS.-Oyer night the
navy department received word that
the Cincinnati had sailed yesterday
from Puerto Cabello for Barcelona I'M
der the instructions cabled yesterday to
Commander Mclean directing either
the Cincinnati or Topeka TO proceed i'm
mediately to that point. Mclean, who
is the senior officer present, evidently
decided TO 90 himself and leave the
Topeka TO protect American interests
at Puerto Cabello. 1t Ia probable that
the Cincinnati already has arrived at
Barcelona but that fact may not be
known officially here for several days,
as Minister Bowen cabled the state de-
partment from Caracas today that the
cable from Caracas to Barcelona again
had been cut by the reyolutionists. on
Monday he reported that this cable had
been cut, but presumably IL had been
repaired In the interim and his last
dispatch indicated that the connection
again has been lost. Neither the state
nor the navy department has received
confirmation OF the press dispatches
from Port of Spain which were con-
yeyed there from Barcelona by boat, Of
the extent OF the fighting at Barcelona
and OF the report that the American,
Italian and Dutch consulates had been

, partment are confident that Command
err Mclean with the Cincinnati will be
able 10 take care OF American interests
there. Owing TO the generally disturbed
condition OF affairs all along the Inc VI
the Venezuelan coast and the appeals OF
Minister Bowen for warships, the
question whether our naval force
In those waters is sufficient 10
take care of the existing sit
uation and TO meet future contin-
gencies has been canyassed. For the
present It has been decided that Il Is
unnecessary 20 send an additional YES

three critical points, the Cincinnati at
Barcelona, the Topeka at Puerto Cabel-
10, where the Germans already have
landed force, and the Marietta at the
mouth OF the Orlnoco, which was de-
clared blockaded by the Castro govern
ment.
The question OF affordlng an asylum
TO President Castro aboard an Ameri-
can warshlp In case he should be
obliged TO flee from the country and
should have no other means OF escape,
has not been seriously considered by
the state department. and Il Is not be-
leved that his condition at present Is
desperate enough TO make such q
move imperative. Besides, II is report
ed through the press dispatches that he
has a vessel at LaGuayra upon which
he can embark for France II the neces-
sity should arise.

Judge Caron, next quoted authority
for his issue OF a writ Of certlorarl IN
his previous judgment and showed that
the writs OF habeas corpus nevertheless
remained in force without the extradi-
ton commissioner having pronounced
upon the case, for the prisoner has al
ways a right to question the justice Of
his being deprived OF his liberty
American courts had taken a similar
view In the case Of forger who was a
fugitive from Quebec province
His honor pressed the opinion that
Judge Andrews judgment quashng his
own writ Of habeas corpus did not de-
eide the merits Of the case and not
withstanding the pretensions of lawyers
for the prosecution TO the contrary, his
writ In no way conhicted with Judge
Andrews judgment for prisoner may
always renew his application providing
that some new facts are stated, as had
been done In the present case. One OF
these referred 10 the absence In the war
rants OF the dates on which the Of
lenses were alleged 20 have been COM
mltted and another the validity of the
charge OF conspiracy to defraud under
the extradition treaty

know In the Emo case, the offense
with which the prisoner was charged
IN the extradition proceedings and that
made elsewhere did not agree. In the
present case there was a distinct dis
cepancy between the charges in
the various true bills against
the prisoners and between them and
that made in the application for extra
ditlon This, as we'll as the absence OF
dates In the warrant. he held TO be dis
tirctly fatal to the latter and he there
fore upheld the prisoners claims and
their objections TO the warrants, main
tained the writ OF habeas corpus and
ordered the release OF the prisoners.
