dollars to be used on Tuskegee Institute

tions of capital for the betterment of the
colored race One OF the main promoters
back Of this local organization is L. r.
Randolph, at the head of the colored
graaed schools in this city and one of the
brightest men of his race in the State. 1t
is an established fact that he has been in
correspondence with Booker ashington
and it is said tina, Washington has be-
come interested in the newly organized
negro company.
The company charter is an extensive one
and permits the building of all kinds of
FACTORIES and dealing IN bond investments.

Brown was run over and Instantly killed
by a Seaboard Air Line train, near Mon
rec, this morning. She apparently did
not see or hear the approaching train, for
she made no effort to get out of the
way of harm.
When he saw the position of the unfor
tGnate woman, the engineer blew his whis-
tie loudly to attract her attention and
made every effort to stop the train. 1t

when The woman was struck by the pilot
of the engine and hurled to the track
She was dragged quite a little distance
and when the train was stopped and the
body examined it was found to be terribly
mutilated
Persons who witnessed the sad affair
thought it strange that Mrs. Brown did
not hear the signal from the engineer,
and the idea was advanced that she might
have intended to commit suicide, but
there is no known cause why she should
have wished to destroy herself.

lnal Rampolla and a hurried whispered
conversation ensued. This gave rise to
all kinds of rumors, but it was soon ex-
planned that Cardinal Rampolla had taken
upon himself the duty of acting as mouth
piece for some of intimate friends and
relatives of the Pope, who suggested the
advsability of calling certain other doc
tors in consultation. DR.. Mazzoni replied
that he had not the least objection to
such a consultation, but that the symp-
toms and course of the disease were so
clear and well-defined as to leave no doubt
as to the diagnosis. He therefore was
unable to see the necessity for the step
proposed. No decision has yet been
reached about the matter.
1t became known later in the day that
the motive for Dr. Mazzonis sudden call
by Cardinal Rampolla originated in what
Vatican circles have already baptised as
''the rebellion of the cardinals" against
DR.. Lapponi. 1t appears that some of
the cardinals complained of the doctors
treatment Of the patient, thinking that
DR.. Lapponi had not since the beginlag
detected that the Pope was suffering from
an affection of pleura and thus, they
said, allowing the disease to assume a

supported by DR.. Mazzoni, Indignantly
repudiated the idea. However. the criti-
cising cardinals not only maintained their
view but succeeding III reaching the ear
of Cardinal Rampolla Besides, this, the
Popes relatives proposed that consulta-
tion be held with the most illustrious ply
sicians, naming Dr. Antonio Cardarella
and DIR. Guido Racceli. But, apart from
the question of hurting DR.. Lapponi's feel
ings, further difficulty thereupon arose,
owing to the existing relations between
church and state. DR.. Cardarelli, an
Italian Senator, thus making him obnox
ious to the papal party.
DR.. Bacelli's position is even more diff

In spite of these objections the wishes
of the Pecci family were respected and
it was announced that Drs. Lapponi and
Mazzoni would consult with DIR. Cardar-
ELI tomorrow evening.
The Vatican has rejected the idea of
with DR.. Baccelli because of
his position as a member of the italian
Cabinet, although DR.. Mazzoni preferred
him. Several other physicians have been
proposed. but it is probable that DR.. Car

The breach in the wall was made in the

Bloodhounds were on his track within two
hours after his escape and tracked him

Sheriff Crawford has made every effort to

NO BILLS.

The following from the Evening Post
Of one day last week would indicate
that in the Judgment of the State con-
stables there arc still few blind tigers,
so called, in Charleston, and that the
Charleston grand jury did not very
strongly believe the constables, or
rather the proof was not "concluSivc,'
the first time we ever heard that a
grand jury needed conclusive" proof
to find a true bill. >" We notice that
Vincent Chicco is still in the business.
So long as public sentiment remains as
it is in Charleston, where grand juries
want "conclusive' proof to find true
bill in dispensary cases and where petit
juries do not convict even when the
proof is conclusive" the enforcement
of the dispensary law is obliged TO be a
farce:
-Four indictments for violation Of the
dispensary law were handed out to the
grand jury this morning by Solicitor
lIildcbrand. The indictments were
against S. =. Schiadcrassi, F.. J. Rid
dock and William Byrncs, Vincent
Chicco, Thomas Marks and George
Murphy. A no bill was returned in
each case.
