ther Governor kimbali nor Mr.. Curtis

branches in Boston. Lawyer Hunt ac-
cnsed Power of failing to account for for
belonging to Mr.. Curtis. which he had
taken, Hunt alleges. to invest in a new
concern known as the New England Man

ing formed to be known as the New Eng

ton. the Exporters Association of Ameri

the shares being valued at 500 each.
Hunt further alleged that Power took
the money which it had been agreed
should be invested in the new concern,
and deposited it to the account of the
Expoi ters' Association of America.

any money. and declared that the pro-
ceeding was persecution; that stories det-
rimental to him and his business had been
circula ted about the country.
The MAGISTRATE then adjourned the hear
ing until next Friday. the summons be
ing renewed for that day.

A SHORT OYSTER CROP.
The Luscious BivalVeS in N. c
Waters Scarce This Year.

OSA AAS
Tne oyster crop is said to be
remarkably short, in facs, deal
ers VITO have been in business
for years say that they never be-
fore have seen such a scarcity of
the hsvalve in the waters OF
Eastera North Carolina.
AS a primal reason for the
scarcity Of oysters in u home
sectious is that the Cesapeake
Bay beds turned out badly and
to supply the markets of Nor
folk and Baltimore the home
markets have deprived them
selves for the sake of the North
ern trade.
The oysters of New River are
small this year and lack the taste.
The salt water that has been
banked up IN the sounds by the
prevailing northeast winds have
spoiled the taste and made them
much smaller than usual.
At Washington, one of the
States principal oyster shipping
points, the crop has. also been
short and the dealers are con.
fronted with the same problems
that are troubling the other parts
of the State.

Funston and His Critics.

During the height of his indigna-
ton that certain American newspap-
ers have seen fit to criticise the
methods which he employed to effect
the capture of Aguinaldo, Gen. Fun
stOn should not permit himself To be
swept into a mock-heroic attitude of
defiance of the American press.
The young Kansan is reminded by
. contemporary that he is under too
heavy obligations to the newspapers
of this country to Justify his loss of
temper because certain publications
now blame instead of praise him.
There is no general officer in the reg
ular army today who so largely owes
his advancement to the newspapers
as does Funston. There is none who
can so i'll afford TO assert that news
papers are prone TO unfairness in
dealing with individuals.
Gen. Funston should he manly
enough to take the medicine of adj
verse criticism without complaining.
Newspapers that believe he violated
the articles of war in the manner of
his capture of Aguinaldo have the
same right to blame him that they
had to praise when they believed that
he had earned promotion by his gal
LIANT leadership of the Goth Kansas
volunteers in action The St. Louis
Republic SAYS. for instance: The Re
public is not of the number that con-
denim FunstOn'S methods in the
Aguinaldo capture. But the Repub-
lies frank contention is that Gen.
Funston should remain calm under
adverse criticism after having uncom-
plainingly accepted 80 much news
paper attention in the form of COM
mendation',
