The long-expected letter Of acceptance Of
President Roosevelt was laid before the pub
lie on Monday, occupying about ten col
umns in the daily press. The contents Of
the document are characteristic Of the

brilliant success. Following 10 the foot.

VaIae OF Clay In North Carolina.

According to statistics collected by the
Department of the Interior the value of
the products of Clay in North Carolina
during the year 1902 was $795,521, of
which $7S1,009 was in brick and tile and
$14512 was in pottery. This is a falling
off of nearly $4,000 in value Of the pot
terry manufactured, as compared with the
statistics of 1901, but an increase of over
S3C 600 in value of the brick and tile In
1897 the value of the clay products of
North Carolina was only 1869 1874, and
every year showed an increase up TO 1900
when the value of $685. 75 was reached.
Then in 1901 the figures dropped down
to S771 .33S. In value of clay products
North Carolina ranks 9th among the
States, producing 65 per cent of the total
output of this country. In 1902 it pro
duc2d 13i. 100000 common brick at an
average price of $52S a thousand and
eco front brick at $S.42 thousand.
A small quantity OF vitrified brick was
made at SO thousand. also 1920 worth
Of fire brick and $5,042 worth OF drain
tile. The value of the pottery produced
in the State in 1902 was $14,512, of which
$13,S54 was in stoneWare and $65S was in
red earthenWare. This is a decrease of
for 1901 There is no decorated pottery
manufactured in the State, the value of
that product in 1901 being set down as
$25 and in 1902 table no value is given.
In fact, the number of potteries in the
State is all the time steadily decreasing.
In 1899 there were II operating, in 1900
there were SO, the year following SO, and
in 1902 there were only g. This is ac-
4oI IN Nv
nation of the large potteries, rendering
the business improbable to the smaller
enterprises.
During the year 1902 experiments were
made by the government with clayS with
a view to testing their physical qualities.
For this purpose clays were taken from
eight different points. OF these, clay
from the Kaolin mines near Dillsboro. N
c., were found 20 stand first in almost
every particular. The percentage of wa
ter required in it for molding is lower
than that of any of the other specimens
both when the clays are used alone and
when they are mixed with fannie acid or
catechu. The air shrinkage of the North
Carolina clay is also greatly less than
that Of any other, being only 3.3 per cent
as against 5 per cent in the next best
clay experimental with. It's total shrink
age in burning in drying was the smallest
in all experiments, and its tensile
strength, when nodded at once, is exceed

only the New Jersey clay has greater
tensile strcngth--the figures being lO1
pounds per square inch for the North
Carolina clay to Ills for the New. Jersey

most double that of any other, being from

THE COMMISSIONS
ANSWER
Southern Railway to Try
Federal Court This
Morning,

The argument in the application for in
junction by the Southern Railway against
the Corporation Commission will com
mence at 10 o'clock this morning before
Judge Purnell in the Federal Court here.
This is the case in which the Greensboro
Ice and Coal Company originally com
planned against the Southern Railway for
refusing to place cars on the siding of the
company, and for holding freight in en-
barge because of alleged demurrage rates
due. The Corporation Commission decided
against the Southern Railway and order
ed them to place cars on the siding. The
Southern appealed from the order, and
the case was regular certified to the Gull
ford Superior Court, but the Southern
flew to the Federal Court--irresistible at
traction-and asked that the Corporation
Commission be enjoined from enforcing
their order, complaining that it was TN
just.
Yesterday the answer of the Corpora
ton Commission TO this complaint was
filed by their counsel, Attorney General
r. D. Gilmer and Messrs. r. Fl. Battle
and s. F. Mordecai In the answer the
Commission contends that the order made
by It with reference to the placing OF the
four cars of coal upon the side-track OF
the Greensboro Ice and Coal Company
was not an interference with the inter
state commerce. but enabled the Southern
Railway to more ctficaciously carry on its
business, in that the cars could be more
readily unloaded III the bins Of the coal
company, and therefore be more speedily
returned to the railroad.
The Commission also cOntended that
the said order made with reference TO the
placing of the said four cars upon the
side track was made by it in the c-ler-
else of the powers conferred upon it By
the act Of the Legislature creating the
Corporation Commission
The answer further denies that il
threatened to bring suit for the purpose
Of recovering penalties on account OF the
failure of the, Southern Railway to COM
ply with its order, but it admits that it
has stated to parties representing the
railway company that unless the railroad
should comply with the law the Commits
sion would be compelled to take such
sters as it deemed necessary TO enforce
the law, that if the Corporation Commits
sion should deem it incumbent upon it
to bring suit for penalties it would be
the fault of the Southern Railway, on
account Of noncompliance with the or
ders Of the Commission.
