New Orleans, Jan. "a big change
in the method of handling trans-contl-
mental passenger traffic via the New
Orleans gateway Will go into effect to-
morrow morning when all the roads
from the Southern Pacific will cross the
Mississippi River and operate from the
Illinois Central depot, giving q sond
Doodle daily service from New Orleans
to San Francisco. The Frisco system
which has just announced its intention OF
entering New Orleans, and for which over
81 600, coo has been expended in city prop
erty for terminals, is also likely to OPP
crate from the new terminals and the
Queen and Crescent practically closed its
arrangements with the Illinois Central
to do the same.
The Frisco has published it's charter in
Louisiana and five weeks ago published
it in Mississippi and it is currently be-
lieved tina the Yoakum roa will enter
the city both by the West and the East
very little construction being necessary
to do this. 1t is also suggested that the
Frisco and Seaboard Air Line may enter
into a traffic alliance for handling east
ern business to New Orleans, the Frisco
and Seaboard Air Line connecting at Dir

The expectation of a formal announce

He is not now, and has not been a
candidate in the sense of seeking the
nomination for Governor. Since he has not
asked any mans support, or said to any
one that he was a candidate, he has not
felt he could withdraw from a race he
has not entered and still less could he
decline a nomination not yet offered.

DEATH IN A FLASH
Henry Cookery, Jr., Trips,
His Gun Goes Off,.
The Contents of Both Barrels Hurled Into the
Neck Of His Companion, lanes
legrand.

Especial to the News and Observer
Rockingham, \. G.. Jan. 3-Our com
munity was shocked today by one Of the
most distressing Of accidents. James
Legrand and Henry Dockery, Jr., We're
returning from a bird hunt and stopped
TO rest in a field in the edge Of the town,
Just back OF II. s. Lcdbetter's residence.
They were standing facing each other,
planning for the next hunt, when Henry
tripped and fell backward, clutching his
gun in a movement TO balance himself.
Both barrels Of his gun were discharged,
the leads taking effect in his companions
neck, causing instant death.
It was q hammer1ess gun, with the
safety slide release.
The unfortunate young man who has
thus lost his life was the Oldest son Of
the late James r.. Legrand, a bright and
popular boy about 1G years Of age. He
was at home from Trinity High School
for the holidays. His tragic death is g
great shock to his mother and family, to
his unfortunate companion and to the
entire community. Henry is d son of
Marshal ii. G.. Dockery. He and James
were devoted companions and cousins.
Young Dockery is overwhelmed with
grief.
The first news Of the above tragedy
was received here yesterday afternoon
by Mr.. ohm Dockery, brother of young
Henry Dockery. Mr.. DoCkery took the
-four O'Clock train yesterday afternoon for
Rockingham. At the station he told q
News and Observer correspondent repor-
ter that young LeGrand and his brother
were bosom friends and he expressed deep
regret at the unfortunate occurrence.
United States Marshal Dockery, father Of
young Henry, left yesterday morning for
Rockingham before the message was re-
ceived here.
Mr.. A. V. Dockery, cousin of young
Dockery, said last night that only a few
weeks ago he was with young LeGrand
and the little fellow then told him that
his mother was very much opposed to
his going out hunting. mo humber,
brighter, cleyerer child ever lived than
this boy cut off at the beginning of life"
said NJ. Dockery, and / want to testify
to his manhood and worth and express
all the sorrow language can impel for his
mother"
EX-State Senator John l.. Wilson, of
Greensboro, an uncle of young LeGrand,
was told Of the accident last night by the
News and Observer reporter. Mr.. Wilson
was very much shocked by the distressing
and will probably leave his morning
for Rockingham. Mrs. LeGrand is a sis
ter of Senator Wilson.
