THE ATTENDANCE POOR.
But the Debate on Reciprocity Loses Nothing
in Warmth and Vigor.
(By the Associated Press. }


Washington, April 14.-Interest in the
Cuban reciprocity debate in the House
seems to be waning, judged by the at
tendance on the floor today but the earn
estness of the speeches on both sides of
the question increases rather than di-
minishes in intensity. That the Repub-
lican opponents of the bill are determined
to prolong the struggle as much as
possible was made manifest today by
their refusal to allow speeches to be
printed in the Record. The speakers to-
day were Messrs. Mccall (Mass.), and
Brantley (Ga.), for the measure and
Messrs. Robertson Da.). and Stevens
(Minn.), against it. Mr.. Robinson (Ind.) 4.

that it would threaten the welfare of
the American wage Garner. The con-

priation Bill was adopted today after

Mr.. Robertson Ua.), opposed the bill
in a vigorous speech. He contended that

COMMITTEE WILL LOOK INTO
DEMAND FOR AN INVESTIGATION
Special Meeting of Board of Aldermen to Con
slider Mr. Richardson's Complaint Of
Mr.. Germans Conduct.

A special meeting of the Board of
Aldermen was called by Mayor Powell
at noon yesterday to take action upon
request from Mr.. Richardson, sexton of
the city cemetery that an investigation
be made into certain charges brought
against him by Mr.. Maxwell j. German,
chairman of the Cemetery Committee,
end also into Mr.. Germans conduct.
The result of the meeting was the nam
ing OF a special committee 20 look into
the matter and report to the board.
The clerk read the communication
from Mr.. Richardson demanding that
Mr.. Germans charges against him, and
also Mr.. Germans conduct on Sunday,
April 9Th, be investigated.
Mr. Croker moved that the whole
matter be referred to a special commit
tee.
Mr.. James II. Pou who was present to
look after Mr.. Germans interest, stated
that he did not know from the paper
read whether the charges were AGAINST
Mr.. Richardson or Mr.. German. He said
if the charges were to he investigated
against Mr.. German, then ne preferred
a full open meeting of the whole board
so that all the aldermen could hear the
entire matter, since the report would
have to come back to the hoard for ac-
ton. If a committee was to investigate
charges Mr.. Richardson brought up
against himself, then that was a matter
for him and the board.
Mr.. German stated to the board that
he had made no charges against Mr..
Richardson.
Mr.. Andrews said he thought a COM
mittee should look into the affair and
determine whether or not the charges
were worthy of Investigation.
This met with the approval of the meet
ing, and accordingly Mr.. Crocker's mo-
tiGn was put and carried The mayor

FIRE AT FUQUAY.sPRINGs
Forest Blaze That Threatened Much Valu.
able Property With Destruction.

Fuquay Springs narrowly escaped de-
structive fire Saturday.
- Started, it is believed, by a spark from
a passing engine, the flames flashed up
among the underbrush close to the line
of the Raleigh and Cape Fear a short
distance northeast of the station, and
swept through the woods as if following
a train of gunpowder.
In a brief space the alarm spread
through the place and the people turned
out en- masse to fight the flames. All
other work was abandoned, while the
telephones quickly conveyed the intelli-
eence to nearby stations with urgent ap-
peals for help. The fire swept rapidly
southeastward and was soon threatening
with destruction the home Of Mr. William
Farmer and that of his father. These
were saved only by hard and faithful
understanding the roofs with water
and firing the woods to meet the rush
of the advancing flames. Even the la
dies took part in the battle with the fire.
and though Mr.. William Farmers fence
once burst into flame and two or three
sheds near Farmers old saw mill, at one
time used for the storage of timber, were
burned, the fire was finally gotten under
control. So far as ascertained there was
no serious loss of property.
Sunday, however, several tall trees OF
resinous pine that were still blazing and
from which the wind was driving showers
of sparks endangering near by houses.
had to be felled, and Monday smoke and
flame were still issuing from different
points in the burned area.
The direction of the wind and the de-
termined efforts of the people alone pre-
vented the destruction of much valuable
property.

THE STATES APPEAL
Supreme Court Hears Argu-
ment in Merger Case.
Can Corporation be Created to Overthrow The
Constitutional Enactments Of Soyet-
tign States?
(By the Associated Press


Washington, April 14.-The United
States Supreme Court today heard ar
gument in the case of the State of
Washington VS.. the Northern Securities
Company and the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern railroads. Attorney
General Stratton appeared for the State
and made the opening arguments, con-
tending that this court is the only one
that can properly hear the case, and
that if it refuses to hear it there is no
tribunal TO which the State can apply for
the redress of a wrong.
Summing up the case, Mr.. StrattOn
said the question presented is whether
the stock and power or control of two
gigantic lines of railway. travelling the
States of Washington Montana North
Dakota and Minnesota, may be consoli-
dated, so as to create a monopoly in
railway traffic therein in defiance of the
laws of such. or whether a corporate
entity can be created and used for the
express purpose of overthrOwng the
constitutional enactments of a number
OF sovereign States, and thus accom-
plish indirectly that which this court
has decided could not be done directly"
Charles w. Bum and former Attorney
General Griggs appeared for the railroad
companies and the Securities Company.
Mr.. Bum contended that the Securi-
ties Company has the same power to ac-
quire, own and vote stock as any natural
person would have and could not be en-
Joined.
Mr.. Griggs argued that the power OF
the Supreme Court cannot be invoked by
one State to enforce the police laws Of
another. He followed Mr.. Bum in the
contention that there could be no more
severe restriction upon the holding of
stock by corporation than upon it's
holding by an individual, adding that
the principle is in no wise affected by the
amount involved
