Mr. Tillman answered question pro-
pounded by Mr.. Hanna during the course
of the latters recent speech by saving
that he voted for the 81 tax on lumber
because he saw an opportunity to en-

He had, he said since then been unani-

of a South Carolina Democrat" He
then addressed himself to the subject
of the Ship Subsidy Bill and declared
that foreigners will not surrender the
trade they enjoy without a struggle and

of raes in order to hold it. He said that
the bill would foster monopOlies and re-

use of vessels in case of emergency by

THE VERDICT STANDS .
Judge Allen Declined to Set
Aside Jury's Finding.
EImwOOd will Be Sold. Jury Makes Even
Split In Case Of z. N. Maynard VS..
K. W. Merritt.

Judge Allen, in the Superior Court yes
terday morning, was petitioned by coun-
sci for defendant in the case of Miss
Matte Barker against the Raleigh Cot
ton Mills to set aside the jurys verdict
of 81, 500 for the plaintiff, Miss Baker, on
the ground that the damages were ex
cessive. Mr.. S. +. Mordecai opened the
argument and he was followed by Mr..
w. G. Douglass for the plaintiff, Mr.. r.
Fl Battle closed for the defendant. 1t
was quite a spirited argument, but the
Judge declined to change the verdict of
the jury. The defense then made formal
motion for an appeal to the Supreme
Court
A large part of the day yesterday was
occupied with the trial of T. NJ. May
nards suit against X. w, Merritt. This
was an action for the possession of some
meat valued at $27 and some corn valued
at $50. 1t seems that Maynard had done
some work for Merritt and gotten in his
debt. Maynard claimed that Merritt had
obtained possession of the property ille-
gally. Merritt declared that he had be-
come responsible for Maynard's bill with
resented by Mr.. Fl. f. Norris and Col. j.
c. L. Harris and Mr.. w. C. Douglass
took care of Mr.. Merritt's interests.
The jury did not take very long to
come to an agreement, and their verdict
was an even split. The plaintiff was
declared owner of the meat, and to the
defendant was given the corn.
Mary Virgins was granted divorce
hn n
abandonment.
The suit of NJ. I. and NJ. A. Parker
against Rufus S. Brown and others was
continued until April.
In another divorce suit Flossie Hepsey
Lee was granted divorce from Allison
Lee on the grounds of abandonment and
unfaithfulness.
In the case of Charles w. Winston
against the city of Raleigh, it was order
ed that the plaintiff be permitted to take
a on-suit.

Of that portion of the willard estate
west of Boylan avenue recently opened

I'D Natured Reports Represent Americans as
Fawnlng Upon Prince Henry.
(By the Associated Pre- SIS. }

NBy the Associated Pfe SIS.
London, March S-The editorial sar-
casm with which so many of the London
papers commented on Prince Henry's
visit to the United States was to no
snail extent suggested and fostered by
the i'll natured kilograms of their special
correspondents in America. With hut
few exceptions those correspondents
who retailed Prince Henry's doings for
English consumption did so only with
an eye to the ridiculous. They magnif:ed
every outburst of humor or minor con-
tretemps into gauge of national feel
ing or characteristic miscarriage of
plans. The desire to receive Prince
Henry Hospitality was almost invariably
represented here as an outburst of sick
ening sycophancy in which all the
Americans we'll known socially were rep
resented as endeavoring to outvie each
other as to who should pay the most self
demeaning obeisance to the royal visitor.
The particular offender in this respect is
the Daily Mail, which in spite of it's al
legged friendship for America, devoted
much space to cablegrams depicting the
wife of an ex-Minister to Austria spend
ing weeks in teaching Chicago women
how to curtesy and detailing the alleged
upheaval in Chicago as to whether the
Prince should visit the stock yards. Such
alleged incidents as these were made so
prominent that the average Englshman
was inclined to believe that Prince Hen
rvs tour was only a huge travesty on
himself and on the American people.

carriers to do an express package bust

their duties.
A motion, offered by Mr.. Williams

iBy the Associated Press.)
Washington, March S.--Thomas B. At
kins, Secretary of the Maritime Canal
Company, was examined by the Senate
Committee on isthmian canals today re-
garding the concessions which had been
made to that company. He said that the
company had paid the Nicaraguan Gov
eminent $4,000 for lands along the right
of way, having $4,000 acres in one grant.
1t still asserted the right to this land and
looks to the United States for protection
of its rights and interests. The Nicara-
guam concessions had been cancelled by
the Nicaraguan Government and the
company had protested the cancellation.
There never had been any cancellation
of the concessions and franchises obtain
ed from Costa Rica and these concessions
were exclusive. The canal could not be
constructed or operated without these
concessions in Costa Rica.
