NEGROES ESCAPE JAIL.
One Caught by a DOg-The Other
Shot, But Gets Away.

When Jailer Hall went to give the
prisoners dinner Sunday afternoon the
Mckinnon brothers, who were being
held on the charge of assaulting and
robbing Mr.. j. N. Peterson sometime
since, made a desperate effort to es-
cape. They had made all arrange
ments before hand, having strapped
their shoes and clothing on their backs.
and when Mr.. Hall opened the, door
they rushed out, knocking him down,
although he had his pistol in his hand.
Mr.. Hall was very badly hurt, his left
shoulder being dislocated. He, how
ever, quickly jumped Up, and picking
up his pistol ran out, firing at them
five times. The negroes ran through
Mr.. John w. Halls yard where the
children were playing with the dog,
and there is where they made their
mistake, for the dog joined In the
chase and caught one of them as he
ATTEMPTED to cross the fence and pulled
to the ground and held him until
Mr.. John w. Hall ran to his assistance
The negro made a desperate effort to
~disentangle himself from the clutches
of the dog and Mr.. Hall, but they held
on like grim death until Mr.. D. L.
Smith came to their assistance.
1t Is thought the the negro who got
way was hit by one of Mr.. Halls shots,
as he was seen to pause and clap his
hand to the back of his leg, and there
were traces Of blood on the fence
where he crossed.-Eliza hethtown Spe-

Diamond Shoals LiGhtship Loses
Her nchors-Sails for Norfolk.

States lightship No. II, which was
twice blown from her moorings off Dia-
mond Shoals during the hurricane Of
Monday and Wednesday,, of last week
arrived at the Norfolk navy yard
Thursday without an inch Of cable, nor
q single anchor aboard. During the
gale the lightship lost her twelve ton
mushroom anchors and hundreds Of
fathoms of cable.
She reached the lower harbor Thurs
day night, but missed the channel and
grounded off Craney Island. A light
house tender pulled her off this morn
ing and she proceeded to the buoy dock
at the navy yard.
Captain j. H. Tawes, when seen, de-
clared that the storm Of Monday night
exceeded in violence anything he had
ever experienced off Hatteras n that
a velocity Of not less than 100 miles an
hour was reached by the wind during
the height of the gale.

held the ship to her anchors snapped

WILL FREE TRADE

British Premier Says He Can
Imagine Circumstances that

(By Associated Press.

LONDON. May l5.-Prenier Balfour, ac-
coinpanied by the Chancellor OF Ex-
chequer. Mr.. Richie. received an influ-
entinl deputation OF Unionist members
OF the House Of Commons to-day. headed
by Mr.. Chaplin. a former president OF the
Board OF Agriculture. who protested
against the remission of the grain duty.
Mir. Balfour made long argument In
reply to the representations of the depu-
tation. but did not give tho slightest In
dication of concedirg the demands. The
tax was never intended to be a protective
measure, he said. and could not be a
permanent part of the fiscal system He
did not intend to say that the present sys-
tenn was necessarily permanent. New
conditions had arisen since the old free
trade policy was adopted. and he could
imagine circumstal kIes under which Great
Britain. by way of retaliation, would no
longer be content to be made O. passive
target for other countries living under
different conditions.
Mr.. Balfour concluded with saying he
would welcome closer fiscal union of the
motherland and the colonies. The move
ment, however, would be extremely diff
cult to carry out, and must come from
the heart, conscience and intellect of the
great masses OF the people.

The fire started beneath grocery store

MEET
TO FORM COMBINE
Determined Not to Let Labor
Unions Conduct Their Bus
mess for Them.
(ByIAss,ciate,i Press,)

NEW York, May 1b.-The first steps
toward effocting general organization
OF employers in the building trades for
the purpose Of offering united resistance
to the demands OF the labor unions were
taken tonight at meetings held In Man.
haitian and Brooklyn. The meeting In
Manhattan was held at the Building
Trades Club, TOO employers being pres
ent, and tho throng being so great that
overflow meetings were held IN the va
rlous assembly rooms of the club
After the meeting statement was
given out, saying that the question was,
'rJyhether the irresponsible bodies Of
men are to be permitted to conduct the
business Of the employer, and In so doing
make 1t impossible for him to execute
his contracts and to discharge the opli-
cations and responsibilities which he
assumes and to which the courts and the
law OF the land bind him." fs.
Walking delegates were denounced,
and the district attorney called upon to
prosecute blackmailers, which this per-
nicious system has fostered." !"
Resolutions were adopted looking to the
creation of central board Of employers.
In Brooklyn 100 employers met and
formed the Employers League Of the
Borough of Brooklyn. It was resolved
to permit no interference with business
by any individuals or organizations, and
that no walking delegates should be
permitted to enter any shop during work
ing hours.

CHAMBERLAIN FAVORS
PROTECTIVE POLICY.

LONDON, May 15.-Addressing his con-
stitucnts at Birmingham tonight, Colo
NAL Secretary Cham mberlain made a speech
which seems to foreshadow the direct
raising OF the question OF free trade vs..
protection at the next general election.
Mr. Chamberlain's unusual reticence.
and his absence from Parliament and
the political arena since he returned from
South Africa have been the occasion OF
considerable comment, as has also the
fact that he took nc part in the heated
discussions excited by Mr.. Ritchie's bud
get and the remission of the grain tax.
In to-nights pronouncement possibly Will
be found an explanation OF this attitude.
1t at least shows a variance OF opinion
on the abolition of the grain duty. For
him Mr.. Chamberlain said local questions
We're comparatively unimportant beside
the great imperialist policy, upon which
tho fate OF the empire depended.
The speaker said that he believed that
an entirly wrong Interpretation had been
placed upon tho doctrine OF free trade but
that the country ought not to be bound
by this, and it should not hesitate retail
ating. If necessary. wherever the inter-
ests between the colonies and the home
country We're threatened.
Mr. Chamberlain added: There are
two alternatives before you: first, to main
tain the free trade policy in all Its Sc
verify; although 1t Is repudiated by every
other nation and your colonies; second.
to insist that we be not bound by any
purely technical definition of free day.
While we seek the one chief object. tho
free interchange OF commerce between
ourselves and all the nations of the world,
we will nevertheless recover our freedom.
