DODGING JURY DUTY.
Extreme Difficult in Getting Twelve
Men for Thompson Murder Trial.
Especial to News and nbserverD

Especial to News and GbserVero
Kinston, n. o., June 17.-The jury
tor the trial of Robert Thompson for
murder has not yet been obtained. The
special venire of 100 men was EXHAUST
ed last night and only nine OF the jury

FORMER CONTEMPT CASES.
Some Against Editors in This State in
Which the Editors Won Out.
(Statesville, Landmark.)

A few years ago when F. E. Rob-
linson-now of Michigan, one of the
brightest editors who ever wrought
in the State, was editor of the Ashe-
Vile Citizens he wrote an article crit
icising Judge Ewart. who at the time
was presiding over the Criminal court
in Asheville. EWart attached the ed
itor for contempt, and although Rob-
inson averred that the publication
was not intended to bring the court
into contempt, EWart adjudged him
guilty. fined him $3.50 and sentenced
him to so days in Jail. Robinson
appealed and the Supreme Court re-
versed Ewart, holding that when the
editor disclaimed any contempt he
effectually purged himself and there
was no going beyond his statement.
Prior to this, in 1885, when Judge
Shuford was presiding at Buncombe
Criminal Court, the Asheville Citizen
referring to the court proceedings,
said there had been numerous hung
juries during the term of court, but as
yet no hung judges" r. M. Furman,
Jordan Stone and John D. Cameron,
all Of whom are now dead, were the
joint owners and editors of the paper
at the time, and Judge Shuford at
tached all of them for contempt of
the publication quoted, adjudged
them guilty, fined them 500 each
and sentenced them to 80 days IN jail.
Habeas corpus proceedings were in
stituted and the case carried before
Judge Avery, then on the Superior
Court bench. Pending the hearing
Furman published in the Citizen this
joke: 1.-The clown stopped the Ring
master, and when that great man of
the show demanded to know what
was wanted, the clown replied: Moth
ing at ali, | simply wanted to show
my authority" Thereupon Judge
Shuford again attached Editor Fur
man for contempt, but this case went
before Judge Avery with the others,
and he dismissed the whole business.
A little power is sometimes a dan
gerous thing, and If judges had the
authority to attach and punish edit
ors whenever they felt offended at a
publication, they being the sole
judges of the law and facts, editing
a newspaper in Russia would be de-
light compared with editing one in
the jurisdiction OF some of the people
that are elevated to the bench i'll this
country.

IMPROVEMENT IN, CROPS.
This and the End of the Tic-U OH the
Lakes Favorable Features of
the Week.
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, June 17.-Bradstreet
reviewing the state of trade tomorrow
will say:
Favorable features this week are
the further improvement shown in
leading crops and the ending of the
tie-up on the Great Lakes. Wheat,
oats and cotton have improved, but
corn is still backward, owing to the
cool weather. General trade and in
dustry have remained quiet, and may
be said to have marked time" The
notable underlying feature of the en-
tire situation is the feeling that with
an average crop of wheat and large
yields of the other sereals and of
cotton now in prospect a good fall
and winter business is to be looked
for. Railway earnings reflect current
quietness in business and the decreases
of 3-5 per cent of gross in May and
of per cent in April net,- indicated
last week, are confirmed by fuller
details.
almost universally favorable, the only
exception being noted in Arkansas,
where a heavy reduction is probable
because of overlooked lands. The Tex
as crop is growing finely first bales be
ing reported nearly month ahead of
the usual time The crop in the lower
Mississippi valley is making good
progress and in Georgia and Alabama
is reported growing finely.

Bear Mouth. Mont. June IL
Masked men held up the North Coast
Limited Northern Pacific passenger
train. eastbound at about a mile and
half east of this station last night.
After bringing the train to stop they
dynamited the express car, blew open
the safe and secured it's contents. The
amount secured is reported to be
$4,000. though this is denied by rail-
road officials. After blowing out the
rear lights of the train the men dis
appeared.
The Eold-up was similar to the one
which occurred two years ago at
nearly the same spot and in which
Engineer O'Neal lost his life. The
hold-ups boarded the tender of the
engine at the water tank at Bear
Mouth and after having remained
quiet until the train had gone a mile
and half they crawled UP over the
coal and covered Engineer Wade and
Fireman Read with their guns, and
told them to throw up their hands.
Engineer Wade was then commanded
to bring his train to a standstill and
Immediately complied.
Made Others Do the Work.
The engineer and fireman were or
dered from their engine, and with the
hold-ups went back to the express
car. Before making an effort to gain
an entrance they forced the engineer
to light cigar. The express messen-
ger was commanded to open the door.
but refused. The engineer was next
commanded to light a stick of dyna-
mite. of which explosive the robbers
had a large quantity, and he placed
the lighted stick against the car door.
The force of the explosion complete
ly wrecked the door and the engineer
cede the hold-ups into the car. When
admission was gained the hold-upS at
once directed their attention to the
strong box. Five sticks of dynamite
were placed on top of the safe and
ignited, but the force of the charge
was insignificant and another one with
a larger cap was used. The second
charge exploded with terrific force,
blowing out the side of the car and
throwing the safe d distance of forty
feet.
The rear brakeman, the moment
he understood what had happened

ran back to Bear Mouth. where com
