from which the Gentleman, Mr. Kitchin,"
comes quite different in cnormity from
those in the West to which the President
referred in his book. The President wrote
of morse stealing and other crimes on the
extreme frontier in his reference to lynch
ing, and the gentleman from North Caro-
lima took as justification for lynching in
the South where civilization exists and
courts are to be found.
Mr. Hepburn said he would not permit
the brutal arraignment of President
Roosevelt to go unHunished. With this
he turned his attention to a discussion of
the tariff
Upon the close. of Mr. Hepburn's re-
marks Mr.. Kitchin was recognized to &c

which he sarcastically deplored the attack
upon him by Mr.. Hepburn and Gen. Gros-

liable to be characterized as peanut mol

Doesn't Believe Confederate Bills Story

Especial to News and Observer
New Bern, N. c., April 23.-It is de-
clared here that the story told by the
Portuguese laborers at Norfolk of hay
Ing been paid for their work here in Con-
federate money is most improbable one;
that no one employing the Portuguese
was mean enough to do such trick, and
the theory is advanced that some negroes
taking advantage of the Portuguese's ig
norance had played green goods trick
on them; i. e., selling a lot of useless and
illegal money for small amount of good
money. Another theory is that they gave
the mayor of Norfolk kind of hard
luck story in order to get money to help
them to their destination.
1t is said when they left New Bern
they were we'll supplied with good money.

Especial to News and Observer)

Especial to News and Observer.)
Greensboro, N. c.. April 23.-Twelve
hundred people witnessed Cardinals in
glorious defeat by Virginia here this
evening.
At no time during the game, after the
first inning could interest be aroused as
Carolina piled up errors and goose eggs
There was slight hope in, the seventh
when she scored two, but the enthusiasm
was more over her salvation from being
shut out than from any conviction of
winning.
After scoring six in first inning, vir-
einia seemed to play more to pass away
the time than to develop further her st-
periority, making only three more scores
during the game, closing with nine to
two.
Batteries: Virginia, Pollard and Chand-
Ter; Carolina, Oldham and Noble
Umpire, Legrand. Time of game, 2:30.
During the sixth inning the game was
interrupted by most exciting episode
which at one time promised serious re-
suits, but terminated without any es,
pecial casualties.
The bearer of large Virginia flag from
Danvllle Haunted it in the, faces OF a
crowd of Carolina rooters on the bleach
L
pulled from the grasp of the bearer, who
struggled manfully to retain it, The Caro-
lima boys had just pulled staff and flag
in their midst when a dozen Virginhns
sprang UP the blcacherse and soon there
was an indiscriminate scrap. One Sir-
ginian, In true foot ball style, had the
torn banner under him in his clutches
while pile of boys were pulling him. But
he worked out and next appeared on the
diamond proudly Haunting the vanished
and tattered flag while policemen and
officers were struggling with the strug'
Cling crowd on the bleacher.
The Virginia veil announcing the pos
session of the flag, diverted attention
from the fracas when everything cooled
down and good humor prevailed ever af-
ter. 1t was a miracle that no one was
seriously injured in thu melee, or that
no bad blood was shown over it. Caro-
lima played the poorest ball seen hero in
thirteen wears.
