V. Il. McBce, now Dy virtue OF Fed
eral authority the receiver of the A. and
n. C.. Railroad, is held for Wake crimi-
nal court, charged with conspiracy to
wrong the State.
This was the outcome Of the searching
investigation held yesterday before Chief
Justice Walter Clark, who, on affidavit
of Attorney General Cine. had issued a
bench warrant for the arrest OF V. E.
McBee and X. S. Finch charged with
serious crime against the State.
The trial laid bare to the public eye
a record of rottenness in a braZen and
bold-faced trarsaction, engineered by two
non-residents. WHO in their grab of State
property have dead-headed everything in
sight, paying no money for stock for tele-
grams, for counsel, but have buncoed their
way along.
Throngs of North Carolnians, with the
interests OF a deeply concerned people
written on their absorbed faces, heard
laid bare the details of a mlunight con-
spiracy whose elimination was reached
when the aims of the plotters was at
tanned and the A. and n. c. Railroad
was IN their grasp.
The hearing consumed three sessions
yesterday and closed near the end OF the
day Witnesses had been heard argument
had been made, and only the decision OF
the presiding officer was awaited. 1t was
a moment OF intense interest and quietly,
evenly Chief Justice Clark said
.sTh n ~, o;r cgo-1
which have been presented decides that
the case now under consideration be sent
on Tor further investigation by the grand
jury at the next term OF tho court Tor
Wake county. The amount OF bail Will
he $4,000. The bond can be drawn and
justified before Col Thomas S. Kenan,
the clerk OF this court
Thus The law begl;s to fasten itself
about the men who in thcir attempt to
laugh the State to scorn and override it
have hesitatcd at nothing.
The trial of this case, following up the
events which have piled one on the other
since the 23rd OF February, was held yes
terday in the State Library in the Su-
prone Court Building, the first sitting be-
siuniBg at Ii o'clock before CnIef Justice

The bench warrant issued upon the af-
fids vit Of the Attorney General, was for
both Y. e. McBee, the present receiver OF
the A. ard ~ Q. Railroad, and X. S.
Finch of New York, the complainant in
the suit who. under allegation that he

l,uon arriving at the house he FOUND
Mrs. Knight, with her 1-months Old

fastened her out by mailing a piece of

were nearly frozen being very scanti,f

knowledge Of the affairs there, thought
it best to notify the sel"ctmen of exist

of this. three women were delegated to
go to the knight home and investigate
as to the necessities Of the family, and
II thought advisable make formal com
plaint. which would enable the select
me,l to act. This delegation in perform
ing their duty found condition of
suualor and want such as they had

only by having horse Blanket doubled

of Miss Virgie Barbour, aged Is
years, with several little children

ing what is known as the "Gainey
Bridge" on the i. d y. II. r.,
some five miles from this city,
when heavily loaded freight train
of the G. & O. came rushing along
down grade.
AS soon as the train men saw the
people on the bridge, they whistled
down breaks and did all they could
to avoid an accident.
The children got safely to one
side of the track and bridge, when
Miss Barbour attempted to cross to
the same side with the children
(they being under her care), she
slipped and fell across the track
almost directly in front of the en-
CINE.
Her body was cut in two and the
remains strcwn along the track for
a hundred yards before the heavy

prepared for burial.

AUSTRALIANS TRIBUTE.

Mr.. George Smith, of Louisville,
who is well known i'm Owensboro

to have scored decided success as
n violinist in Australia, where he
is now touring. The West Aus
tralia.' published at Perth, Aus

offered the following grateful criti-
cism of his work:
MIR. George Smith, an American
violinist, and his company, APP
peared last evening at the Royal
theatre before II large and enthusi-
astic audience. Mr.. Smith is
one of the greatest virtuosos of the
age: his tone is simply marvellous,
while his bowling. either in popu-
lar or classic music, is incompara-
ble. When the three instruments
of his company are harlnonizing an
effect is produced that can not be
described in words; ii must be
heard for one to have the slightest
conception of its power and beauty,
while its effect is enhancing and
enthralling. '-Owensbo,o Messen-
