Kenansville. n. c., Dec 20-Stark
and motionless under the SHADOW OF
the gallows beam the body Of win
Carter. the young negro convicted of
a criminal assault upon little six-year-
old Virginia James, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Howard James, prominent
and highly respected people of Wal
lace, Duplin county, was cut down at
thirteen minutes past twelve o'clock
today twentythree minutes after the
springing of the fatal trap. The negro
died of strangulation.
Carter went 10 the scaffold APP
parently without emotion. There was
not the quiver of a muscle. hardly the
flicker of an eye-lash. In the presence
of Sheriff Middleton, his four deputies
and twenty eight witnesses gathered in
the high-walled enclosure of the jail
yard, Carter met his fate with the cold
stoicsm of a pagan. Asked by the
sheriff at the last moment il he had
anything to say he replied in the neg
ative. The black cap was then ad-
justed, the trap sprung and the body
shot downward. ghastly, quivering
figure at the ropes end.
Carter was brought here from Colds
boro, where he had been taken for safe
keeping after the passing of the death
sentence on the fourth of November.
No incident marked his journey none
his arrival here. The community was
calm and waited without demonstra-
ton for the execution Of the sentence
which the law had imposed.
Mr.. Il. II. Hines, editor of the Ke-
nansville News, interviewed the negro
in his cell He describes him as a
bright mulatto of II, his face lumin-
Gus with intelligence, yet an inveterate
smoker of cigarettes. Mr.. Hines asked
him if he realized the enormity of his
crime, and Carter replied that he did.
The negro had recently professed re-
ligion, and joined the Baptist church.
Words spoken by him in the course of
the conversation with Mr.. Hines,
however, indicated that his moral
faculties We're only partially aroused;
for while he expressed contrition for
his crime he practically admitted that
he was a willing slave to the baser
passions
When Sheriff Middleton brought
him the neat suit of clothes in which
he dressed himself to meet his fate on
the scaffold. Carter thanked the officer
with expressions Of the keenest pleas
ure. He spoke bitterly. however, of
how he had been abandoned by his
people, declaring that during his con-

word
His cell was permeated with the
scent of tobacco. He threw away the
stub of his last cigarette as he left
the prison on the way to the scaffold.
As soon as life was pronounced ex-
tinct the body was taken down and
sent to Raleigh to the undertaking es-
tablishment of John w Brown.

The execution was in the rear OF
the janl inside an enclosure of ylanks
and was witnessed by only twenty
eight people. including two physicians
The boz kept his nerve until the last
and smoked a cigarette to within two
minutes of the time the trap was
sprung. He Drofessed religion and
joined the Baptist church while in
Goldsboro for safe keeping before the
hanging today. He said he realized
he had to die. and regretted the crime,
confessing frankly that the interfer-
ence of the negro cook prevented the
full accomplishment of his wicked
purpose. He expressed a kindly feel
ing for everybody. but said his people
had not treated him right In not
coming to see him while he was In
trouble.

WEALTHY CONTRACTOR FAILS.
Seth Perkins Of Boston Has Liabilitie:
of $41o,3S432.

Boston, Nov. 29.--Seth Perkins, well
known in Boston and New York rs a
contractor and rcputed to be wealthy,
a partner of the Tammany leaders, John
%. Sheehan and John u O'Brien, filed in

HabitualIy Loaned Nom Tax
able Bonds for Tax Evasion
NO INTEREST ON 100000
Securities, Central Bank Says, Were
for the Merchants Trust Co.,
Client--N. O. Traction
Deal Probed.

New York, Nov 29.-Lawyer Hughes
inquisitor of the insurance investigat-
ing committee, yesterday developed an
interesting sequel to the story told Mon
day evening by Cashier Banta, of the
New York Life--of 100000 in New
York City bonds taken from the com
pany's vaults and transferred to the
Central National Bank for several days
on receipt of cashiers check as security
This transfer was made at the time
of readjustment of personal taxes, and
it was assumed that the accommodation
was to enable some one to evade taxa
ton to the extent of SOC, 900 the city
bonds being nontaxable.
Il. B. Randolph, treasurer of the New
York Life, corroborated this assumption
on the stand He admitted that it had
been practice with the New York Life
to make such transactions as this to help
out friends seeking to evade taxation
though he had never eountenanced the
practice.
The witness corrected Cashier Banta
on point important to himself. He was
not treasurer, he said, at the time Of
the Central Bank incident. Mr.. Gibbs
now dead, was treasurer, and he (Ran.
dolph) opened the vault by direction oil
out and the bank check substituted
The company received no compensation
for the 100000 loan.
An important point developed when
the witness announced that the bank had
declared, in explanation, that it had OBJ.
tanned the 100000 Of city bonds for a
client--the Merchants Trust Company
Mr.. Randolph said he never countenanced
such transactions, and they did not pre-
vail under his administration.
Mr.. Hughes probed further into the
alleged purchase of S1,025,000 Of New
Orleans Traction securities from the New
York Life by w. s. Fanshawe, bond
broker for i r. Morgan 4 Co., under AZ
arrangement engineered by George w
Perkins
Mr. Fanshawe testified that the New
York Life lent him the entire amount
with which to pay for the bonds pnr-
chased from itself.
James ~. heeitIs tulMicii1 = SltAk 1hL
assistant secretary OF the New York Sc
cuFities and Trust company, testified
that in 1900 the trust company had paic
$4,000 to Judge Andrew Hamilton
out Of the proceeds belonging to thu
policy holders Of the New York Life
accruing from the sale by the New YORK
| Life Of debentures issued BY the Uniof
Savings Bank and Trust Company O
Spokane, Wash. The witness could MOI
lexplain why Judge Hamilton Should
have been paid this $4,000.
The deposition Of George II. Squire D
the Equitable's George II. Squire, trus
tee," account, was read. It was yer.
lengthy document, but contained littl'
that was new and nothing OF sensationa
| interest.
