Charlotte. n. c., oct. 21.-Dr. j. A.
NIcKelway mas instructed his attorneys
in Charlotte TO bring suit for damages
against the observer Publishing Com
pany unless ample apology is made for
an article that appeared in the char
lotte Observer several days ago con-
CerniEg charges preferred against Nc
Kelway. 1t seems that the trouble is
ell with the Observers Pineville cor
respondent who, in reporting the pro-
c.edlngs c of Mecklenburg Presbytery
said Serious charges had been
brought against DR.. Mckclwdy, when
in reality they were not serious and
were brought by Dr. Dubose, one of
the foreign missionary 5ecretaries WHO
had seen fit to disagree with DR.. Nc
KelWay On account of a certain editor
iai published in the Presbyteriar
Standard, of which DR.. McKelway Is
Editor.
The ct rresr ohdc'it f the Charlo:tc
paper who has made this grave mis-
take is nameC Williamson. 1t is said
that he used the term serious
charges" not knowing the real minis
terial import of such term. But the
Charlotte Observer has not seen lit tu
apologize through its editorial col
unns and several ministers incluGiEE E
In. j. II. HCWertCn, pastor OF the First
Presbyterian church of this city, have
rushed into print declaring the article
misleading and damaging. This latter
fac: shows conclusively that DR. Nc

report from the Pineyille correspond

Parker said:
The expenditures of the govern

and is frankly admitted. With the
claim that the expenditures have been
managed in a spirit of economy. we
must take issue. The facts presented
in support of the charge of extrava-
gance have not been answered.
Judge Parker gave figures to SHOW
that it cost about one hundred and
sixty-six millions of dollars more 10
run the government last year than /;
did seven years ago. THAT state
ment." he said, ION its face raises the
presumption of extravaganza ana
waste, a presumption which requires
evidence to overcome.
.None has been presented BY way
of indirect answer to the Democratic
charges of extravaganza the inquiry
has been put by the administration
whether we propose TO cut of the
pensions? We answer certainly not.
And we further assert that the infer
ence suggested by the question is not
ingenious. The amount paid out In
pensions has been decreasing every
year since 1898. But for the unwar-
ranted order number rs. which was
fully considered in my letter of ac-
ceptance. the amount paid for pen
sions in the seventh preceding year
would have exceeded the amount paid
last year.
Do This Yes Plain Enough?
"The inquiry is further made by the
administration whether we would dare
to reduce the cost of the army. we
answer that most aSSuredly we
would and we ask the people to de-
eide between the administration and
the Democratic contention on that
point. In the year 1897 the War De-
partment cost less than forty-nine mill
lions of dollars, which was about The
average cost per year for the preceu-
ing 26 years. This last year. a year
of peace, the cost of the army was
one hundred and fifteen millions of
dollars. One of the questions we now
ask the people is: What is the use
of spending more than double on the
spend previous to the Spanish War;
"A large standing army was un-
necessary. SO our statesman thought.

WOMEN SUICIDES WEAR THEIR
 BEST CLOTHES.

Women who are driven to suicide presumably lose most of their ambition before taking the fatal plunge, but there is one feminine trait that they retain to the end, namely, pride in clothes.
 Seldom" says doctor whose posi- tion has required him to perform post mortem services for many of these un- fortunates, have seen a woman who did not go to her death as well dressed as her circumstances would allow. The published reports of these trage- dies confirm mys observation. Read in the papers the account of suicide, and nine times out of ten 1t will wind up by saying the woman was well dressed,'' or, at the least, "her clothing was neat and clean.'
 Unless these women belong to the dregs they are found dressed in the silk skirt and silk waist which have become the inevitable garb of the sui eide of moderate means. At the last the true feminine instinct seems to as- sert itself, and, although the woman will not be here to read the account of the tragedy, she wants to die in the blessed satisfaction that she will be written up as well dressed member of ety."-Chicago Tribune.

 After the address remarks were made by Professor George P. Fisher, who was a student at Andover when Stuart was a professor there, and by Rev Dr. Charles Ray Palmer and Judge Simeon E. Baldwin, who said that Stuart did for America what Carlyle did for Eng land as regards giving an impetus to the study of the German language.

UNDER ONE ORGANIZATION
THE TROLLEY INTERESTS OF
 THE N r, N H. & IT. ROAD

To be Combined Into One Company ts
 Facilitate the Operating of the Rail-
 road COmPany's Electric Affairs.
 All trolley lines owned by the New York. New Haven and Hartford Rail- road company are to be combined into one company for the purpose of enab- ling the railroad company to facilitate the handling. of it's electric affairs through one organization. As is stated by President Mellen, the charter of the Worcester and Connecticut Eastern company, the name of which has been recently changed to the Consolidated Railroad company, is used because it is considered that under the latter char ter the New Haven company will be better able to conduct it's electric af- fairs.
 The Worcester and Connecticut East ern road was chartered in 1901. Its main offices are located in Putnam. H. M. Kochersperger of the Consolidated road is its treasurer.
 The company has a capital stock of $5O0,000. The amount of stock held in this state is s4997O0. The total stock holders in this state is only II. The funded debt of the company is $1, ,9s2, 900.
 The charter of the company, which acquired the Peoples company, gives that company the right to sell it's power for lighting and other purposes.
 The directors of the Worcester and Connecticut Eastern road are as fol- lows: Charles F. Brooker, George J. Brush. Edwin Milner, F. S. Curtis, H. M. Kochersperger, all directors of the Consolidated road. Fred A. Jacobs of Danielson. E. D. Robbins of Hartford. H. Hobart Porter, jr., Lawrence; I. and E. Sanderson of New York.
 A statement authorized by President Mellen is as follows:
 The notices calling for meetings of the New Haven Trolley companies for |sale of their property, rights and fran chises to the Consolidated Railway company is simply move by the New York. New Haven and Hartford Rail- road company, which owns the stocks of all these companies, to consolidate the trolley interests in it's control into a single company, and the reason the charter of The Worcester and Connecti- cut Eastern Railway company (which name has already been changed to the Consolidated Railway company is used is because the terms of that char ter were more liberal and elastic, and enables the New Haven company to better handle it's electric affairs through that organization than any other"
 Meetings of stockholders of the troll ley companies for carrying out the above purpose are called for May 20
