DAY IS BOUND OVER
Fabius H. Busbee Makes
a Play to Galleries.
The Attorney Who Made an Unpro-
voked and Vicious Attack Charg-
ed With Use of Deadly
Weapon.

Yesterday at noon quite large
crowd gathered at the mayors office
to witness the trial for an affray be-
tween Captain Day and Mr.. e. E. Brit
ton. Both had been summoned, and
both were present, attended by their
counsel. Mr.. Fabius II. Busbee and
Col. Argo represented Captain Day
and Mr.. Britton was represented by
Mr.. j. n. Holding. The witnesses,
whose testimony was printed yester-
day, were present.
There was no trial. The mayor had
changed the warrant from that OF an
affray to one charging Captain Day
with an assault with deadly weapon.
The mayor announced that he was
ready to hear the case when Colonel
ArSo stated that the defendant would
waive an examination. There was no
objection TO this, and the mayor said
he would hold the defendant III Il
bond Of $50.
With a theatrical air. Mr. Fabius
II. Busbee then presented bond
signed by quite a number, and said
that he had been on the street on the
nearby blocks and obtained these sig
natures, (Which he read ouD and that
if he had time he could have obtained
more. The bond was accepted and the
UcIenudll DOunu over 10 the july term

Mr.. Holding enquired if there was
any charge against Mr.. Britton ana
the mayor stated there was no charge
against him.
Playing to the Galleries.
AS for the grand-stand bond play,
Mr.. Britton could have given n bond
for 100000 and 100 names just as
easily as MIR. Busbee got the names
for Days $50 bond. That little circus
attempt to miSinterpret public senti-
ment was on a par with the futile at
tempt of Busbee and Day to defeat
Judge Clark; to make Russell Chief
Justice; to defeat the Democratic Ma
tional ticket; and other things famil-
lar to the people of North Carolina.
Several parties who signed Captain
w. II. Days bond sent word to Mr.
Britton and said that in signing Cap
tain Days bond they took no part in
the controversy and they wished him
TO know that they would have gladly
signed his bond if it had been re-
queSted.

A MONOPOLY OF ABUSE.
How Francis ID. Winston as Usual Hits

Especial to News and Observer
Kenansville, \. c., Nov. 3.-Court
is in session here. Judge Fred Moore
is presiding with fairness and ability,
and is dispatching business to the
great satisfaction of the taxpayers
and all concerned.
Yesterday Meserve Abernethy, De-
mocratic elector and Owen, Repub-
lican electOr, spoke. 1t is generally
conceded that owen is heavily out
classed and yesterday showed that
Mr. Abernethy is one of the ablest
debaters in the State.
Today the people enjoyed an able
speech from Hon. Francis D. Win
ston, Democratic candidate for Lieut..
Governor From the opening of his
address in which he declared that
there was one monopoly enjoyed by
the Republicans this wear, the mono
poly of villifcation, SANDER and
forgery to the close when he eX-
horted all good men to assist in pre-
serving the peace in North Carolina,
he received the closest attention. His
sallies of wit were much enjoyed.
His speech aroused a great deal of
interest and enthused the party
workers.
Two Murder Cases.
There are two murder trials pend
ing here. both to be tried this term,
George Daniels and Dan Teachey.
Both cases have been to the Supreme
Court and both defendants given new
trials. Owing to the absence of Col.
w. r. Dortch, the counsel for Teachey,
the Daniels case will be heard first.
Judge Moore wisely follows the law,
and has the jury drawn from the box.
A special venire of two hundred
was drawn for the Daniels case re-
turnable Friday. 1t is probably that
the Teachey case will be tried next
Wednesday.
Mrs. Moore and Master William
Moore, wife and infant son of Judge
Moore, came today for visit to the
Judge.
Mrs. Duffy is with Solicitor Duffy.
The usual number of visiting law
yers is in attendance.
The people are very busy gathering
q good crop.
The Democratic prospects are very
encouraging. The idea is universal
that the majority will be larger than
last year.
