BUSINESS MEN MAY ACT
Trolley Strike Will No Doubt Be Dis

Trolley Strlke Will No Doubt Be Dis
 cussed At To-Night's Meeting.
 It is understod that the trolley strike will be discussed at the meeting of the Business Mems association tonight and action taken to bring the two contending elements together with q view to settling the question by arbi- tration. The merchants feel that the company and the men should be will ing to have the difference adjusted by arbitration and some of them take the ground that in case either side should refuse to agree to such a proposition steps should be taken to have a law NSSsed which will compel arbitration between capital and labor when they fail to come to an understanding among themselves, if such a law doesn't all ready exist. Eff the company has a good case" said a prominent merchant this afternoon, ''I don't see why it should be afraid to have this strike settled by arbitration. In any case, l am of the opinion that the mayor and board of aldermen should have some thing to say as to how long the pres ent state of things is going to continue. and probably the merchants are the proper persons to request them to move in the mater. If this strike is not settled by arbitration it will last so long that Waterbury might as we'll say it has no trolley service. No mat ter what a prudent merchant may think of the case he is not going to jeopardize his business by being seen riding on trolley car while the strike is on so that the sooner it is settled I the better for the ceapany and every body else '

FOUR KILLED IN COLLISION.
Express Train Collided With Two Freight Engines.

Two Engineers and Two Bremen Met
 Their Deaths-None of the Passen-
 gers Injured-Messenger Boy Threw
 the Signal and Caused the Accident.
 Cumberland, Md, Jan l6.-The east bound express train leaving here at 20 this morning, near the east end of the yard, struck two freight engines on the main track, killing Engineer Sims and Bremen Moran and Sneering of the passenger train, and Engineer Butler of one of the freight engines. None of the passengers was injured. Investigation of the cause of the acci- dent shows that messenger boy who was in the telegraph office threw the signal without the knowledge of the operator, giving the passenger train 8 lcear track, when it should have been blocked.

BILTMORE BREED PIGS SOLD.

Noted Stockmen From All Over the
Country Present, and the Sales Ag-
gregated $13,542.
Biltmore, n. c., Feb. 3.-The third
annual Berkshire sale of breed pigs
at the Biltmore Stock Farms to-day
was a world record-breaker, 81 males
and females being sold for $13,542,
an average of 1922 each, which is the
highest record known. The pen con
tanned the best and biggest aggrega-
tion of imported blooded Berkshires
ever seen in this country, and their
prize winning records and breeding
qualities attracted the owners of all
the great farms of this country to
the sale.
The Biltmore estate, through Geo.
F. Weston, superintendent, is doing
much towards the advancement of
fine stock breeding in the South, and
he has an able coadjutor in Reuben
Gentry, manager of the Berkshire de-
partment, whose skill, experience and
success has made him one of the best
known men among breeders in this
country. Messrs. Weston and Gentry
made personal visits to all the lead
ing stock farms of England to OBJ
tain these importations disposed of
to-day.

MAJOR JAMES M. MOODY DEAD.

After an Illness of Some Weeks the
Congressman From the Tenth District
Passes Away at His Home at Waynes-
vile.
Waynesville, Feb. 6.-Maj. James
M. Moody, Congressman from the
Tenth North Carolina District, died
at his residence here yesterday af-
ternoon at Las o'clock of congestion
of the lungs and heart. He was As
years of age. The community is
stricken with grief on account of
his death, for he was exceedingly
popular in this section of the State.
Major Moody was taken i'll with
acute indigestion in Washington
some weeks ago and for some days
vas confined to his room at his hotel.
When able to travel his physicians
advised that he return home for a
rest, and he arrived here last Fri
day.
James Mo~ntraville Moody was born
in Cherokee County, February u,
1858, and was reared mainly on u
farm on Jonathan's Greek, in this
county. He was admitted to the
bar and elected Solicitor to this dis
trict in 1886, and served in that po-
sition for four years. In 1894, he
was elected to the State Senate, and
in 1900 he was chosen as Congress-
nan from this district, then the
ninth. He was the candidate of his
party for reelection last fall in what
is now the tenth district, but was
defeated by a small margin by his
Democratic opponent, J. M. Gudger,
of Asheville. Major Moody, how
ever, claimed that there were irregu-
l~arities in the election an filed no
tice of contest, and the taking of
evidence in the case has been under
way for some time.
Major Moody was a very popular
man, and was a power in the ranks
of the Republican party. He was a
criminal lawyer of magnetism, and
his death is deeply deplored.

Asheville Dispatch: The contest
begun by Congressman J. M. Moody
for a seat in the next Congress from
this district, to which J. M. Gudger,
Jr., was declared elected in the last
campaign, will be continued. The
object in continuing the contest is
to have the seat in the House of
Representatives, for which Mr.. Gud-
ger holds the certificate, declared va
cant. 1t is admitted by Gudger's
attorneys that the contest is not
abated by the death of the contestant,
but that, although there is no prin-
cipal to benefit by it, the House had
the power in the event that the tes-
timony was sufficient in its opinion,
to unseat Mr.. Gudger, just as it
might if Major Moody had lived. In
such possibility the Governor is re-
quired to call a special election
thirty days after the vacancy oc-
ours.
Greensboro Corresponce Char
lotte Observer: One of Senator
Pritchard's close personal friends
says hat gentleman will probably

Circuit Court Judge. It is not con-
sidered at all certain that Senator
Prichard would accept the judgeship
if the bill providing for a new cir
cult should become a law, and the ap-
pointment were to be rendered him.
Those who know Senator Pritchard
know that he is never so we'll pleased
as when in the thickest of a politi-
cal fight, and it is this love of active
politics that might keep him from
accepting a life-tenure appointment
to such a desirable office as a Fed
eral judgeship.

The TaylOr Lectures.

Rev. f. 0. Taylor. ID. ID. of Boston,
lecturer, specialist and author, will
deliver a series of lectures at the
Baptist church beginning Sunday
evening. DR.. Taylor will also lee
ture on Monday, Tuesday and We'd
nesday evenings following. The lee
lures begin 1870. No admission fee
will he charged at the door.
DR.. Taylor has but just finished a
lecture engagement in Jacksonville,
and the daily papers of that city
gave up much space to report of
his meetings. He lectured to crowd
ed houses nightly.
DR.. Taylor is neither u discredited
minister looking for a job, nor SEN
sationalist, nor a political crank with
hobby, nor a reformed drunkard
with history to exploit. He is not
coming for newspaper notoriety, nor
as the advance agent of political
party. He is coming to put in three
or four days of hard work in helping
good people to meet some phases of
bad citizenship, and to build up the
moral and spiritual interests of the
city. This to be done through the
earnest, plain, logical presentation of
the fundamental principles of good
government, and always with the
motive to honor God as the author
of human government and Jesus
Christ as the ideal citizen.
