New Ocean Greyhound.

One of the managers of the North Ger
man Lloyd, Mr.. P. Pavlovski, of Paris,
staying at the Wentworth at Portsmouth,
n. H., confirmed the statement that
his company has ordered from the ship
yards at Stettin, Germany, a duplicate
of the Kaiser Wilhelm III.
The ship will be built exactly on the
plans of the Kaiser Wilhelm III, which
is considered among naval architects the
perfection of a modern fast express
steamer. She will be fitted with recip-
rocating engines, as the reports Of the
experts Of the North German Lloyd
have all been adverse to the employment
of turbines on very large and fast steam
ships. The engines will have the same
horsepower as the Kaiser Wilhelm II
40, 000-but the builders expect, with
the experience gained and the continued
progress made by naval architects, t. in
crease the speed by more than balf a
knot, so that the ship is expected to
maintain an average speed Of "A knots
an hour, while the coal consumption
will be smaller than on the Wilhelm III.
Although vibration exists only to a
small degree on the Kaiser Wilhelm II
and is less perceptible than on any fast
steamer afoat, the German engineers be-
lieve they have found way to make it
disappear altogether on the new ship.
The interior decorations will surpass
in luxury and comfort anything ever at
tempted upon ocean greyhounds. There
will be nearly so chambers de luxe, with
private baths and toilets; the greater
majority of cabins will have lower beds
and many of them will be of the popular
single bedroom class.
This latest addition to the fleet Of the
North German Lloyd will make her
trial trip in April, 1907.

Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. lS.-"That

Publishers Press by NJ. Witte this after
noon, when he was asked about the SEN
sational report sent out by news agency
that President Roosevelt has been au-
thorized by Japan to waive all questions
of indemnity and offer to sell half OF

early this morning, has been prolonged
for several hours. 1t is understood that
the question under discussion is the
abatement of Japan's demands for a
money Indemnity from Russia.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 2S--The senti-
ment of the reactionary element is we'll
expressed in an article which appears to-
day tn the Svet, which says: THE Jap
anese conditions for peace would only be
acceptable ifa japanese fleet was threat
ening st. Petersburg andSa japanese
army was occupying Moscow. Russia
will not bow to the japanese even to full
fill President Roosevelt's desire to guar =
antee the American creditors of Japan
to cover himself with glory as a peace
maker.
Japan, needing peace, seeks it
through the intermediary of her friend,
President Roosevelt, and makes exorbi-
tant demands while the President is indi-
rectly striving TO exact the consent of
Russia. After fruitless negotiations it
would seem that we are on the eve OF
what Russia has long desired, a great
battle between General Lineyitch and
Field Marshal Oyama."

Boston, Aug. 2S.-The death of Sadie

a well known Boston woman and former
actress, or her confinement 10 prison. is
the outcome of the political disturbances
of Nicaragua, where she went after her
marriage year ago with her husband,
who is president of the Limon Mining
Company, and his brother. They also
have disappeared. Senator Henry Cabot

their influence to set the machinery of
the State Department in motion to ascer-
tain their fate, and if they are alive, to
secure their release from prison at once.

MONDAY EVENING, AUG. 2S. 1905.

THE BRUTAL proceedings in a north
Lee street resort last Saturday night af-
forded a theme for considerable com
ment yesterday. A young Alexandrian
lies at the Alexandra Hospital in the
shadows of another world suffering from
kuife wounds and the gatherings OF a
black jack inflicted, it is alleged, by SOL
ders during a row. Many tread dan
gerous paths of life and escape serious
consequences, but occasionally some
dreadful catastrophe oyertakes an indi-
vidual seemingly as warning to others.
The admOnition, however, is not lasting,
aud soon the habitues of questionable re-
sorts are again tempting Providence.
About a third of a century ago a canal
boatman bad his brains scattered upon
the floor of north Union street resort
by woman whose anger he aroused.
This proved temporary check upon
some of that generation, and now
another terrible admonition is before
those who have since been born. The
circumstances in connection with the
bood-shedding of last Saturday night
appear to be similar TO those which have
caused such scenes in by-gone days. A
woman had been called an ugly name
and the victim of the butchery had re-
scented it. Evil paths are ever danger
Gus. Solomon warned people in his day
and generation to be aware Of such, and
and in his reference tOwomen with bank
rupt characters he observes that they have
cast down many wounded; yea many
strong men have been slain by them.
Their house is the way TO sheol going
down 20 the chambers of death. He
knew whereof he spoke.

The republican organization OF New
York county, through its executive com
mittee, under the leadership of ex-Gov
ernor Odell, has decided to fuse with all
anti Tammany and anti-Mayor Nc
Clellan elements upon the platform OF
municipal ownership of public utilities
The resolution adopted by the republic
cans declared the purpose of their party
to give its full power in the coming cleo
ton to the support of candidates pledged
"to an administration of the affairs Of
this city in which the public utility cor
porations will not be masters Of the
people of this city," Committees were
appointed to confer with other bodies.
This is another proof that the republican
leaders act not on principle but on
policy. Atheart they are az ainst munic-
ipal ownership, but in New York will
profess to favor such measure just to
catch votes. 1t was the same way with
them in Virginia when in their national
platform they preached honest settle

Negro Lynched.

John Moore, a negro, twenty years
old, was taken from Craven county Jail
in Newberne N. c., early yesterday and
lynched by mob of 100 masked men
armed with rifles and reyolvers.
With his hands tied behind him, the
negro was led out about oue-third of a
mile from the Jail to the draw of the
Neuse river bridge, hanged to one OF its
braces, and his body riddled with
bullets.
The mob attacked the Jail between l
and o'clock yesterday morning. En-
trance to the Jail was effected by forcing
The jailer to surrender the keys. As
soon as the attack was discovered, the
naval reserves were called out 10 at
tempt to prevent the lynching. Crowds
rushed to the bridge. Sheriff j. w.
Bidlle was quickly on the scene, plead
ing that Moore be left to the law, but
his efforts were unayailing and the mob
carried out its plans.
Moore entered the country store of
George Eubank, at Clarks, seven miles
from Newberne, last Friday, when the
proprietor's wife was there alone The
negro attempted robbery and struck
Mrs. Eubank on the head with a meat
axe, fracturing bones aud inaicting in
juries which, if they do not prove fatal,
will at least cause not only dis6gure-
ment but lifelong suffering. Mrs. Eu'
bank screamed and people came to her
rescue. The negro fled, but was cap
tured in a swamp, after chase of few
miles, and was placed in Jail
The immediate cause of the lynching
lay in the fact that at his preliminary
hearing Saturday, Moore pond was fixed
at the snail sum of $780,
The deed was denounced from all the
pu!pits of Newberne yesterday morning.

The Taegart Divorce Case.

Wooster, o., Aug. 2S.-Mrs. Grace
Taggart stepped lightly into court this
morning. She passed a quick nod and
a smile to group of friends already
there, and then stepped forward to be
sworn. The day she says she has been
looking forward to ever since the filing of
the charges against her has arrived. As
the bell in the tower of the court house
bad ceased its toiling Judge Eason took
his sea- on the bench, and the fifth week
of the Taggart divorce trial was on.
The attorneys for Mrs. Taggart and
those OF the other side were already in
their places. Just few feet away, and
very straight in his chair, sat Captain
Taggart.
The court room quickly filled with the
crowds attracted by the promise of SEN
SAIL )nal testimony. Mrs. Taggart was
to be on the witness stand to tell her
own story. On this story in great
measure, depends the result of the case.
Taggart had told his story of fast liv-
ing. His witnesses had added to this
each his share. Then came the witness
SEES for Mrs. Taggart, denying this and
failing to remember that.
"What will Mrs Taggart have to say?"
This has been the question in the
minds of many. Now, alter four weeks
testimony, these questions were to be
answered.
81 will show" said Mrs. Tsggart,"
that the charges against me are all
false. | never drank to excess. My
alleged infdelities were all in the mind
of Captain Taggart"
While Mrs. Taggart waited to take
the stand, her attorneys made the
charge in court that papers from the
War Department, under seal of the de-
partment, had been tempered with and
suppressed.
Attorney Wertz, for Taggart, WAS put
on the stand. He denied the charge.
One paper not before introduced 10 evil
dence was brought TO light. 1t con-
tanned a copy of letter from General
H. c.. Corbin in which he said that the
Secretary of War concurred in the report
of General Miner. This was concerning
Taggart's alleged assault on his wife.
By orders of the Secretary of War,
said General Corbin, General Miner was
required to make monthly reports as to
Taggart's sObriety.
The row between the attorneys grew
until attorney Smyser charged Wertz
with stealing book from freight office.
you are a liar" said Wertz, and he
started around the table toward Smyser.
Judge Mason threatened to fine both
attorneys for contempt, and quiet was
restored.
Just about II O'Clock Mrs. Taggart,
cool and collected, took the stand. 81
am So years old and was born and raised
in Chicago" she said, in answer to the
first question. Resuming she said 81
received a musical education. | attend
ed church and Sunday school every week.

stainer and was brought up that way"
Mrs. Taggsrt then told of her first meet
ing with Capt. Tsggart and her marriage /
to him.

plete to enable an exact statement to be
made as to the vote for Senator and Gov
ernor, it is now apparent that not over

and that Senator Mortin's majority will
probably not exceed IL, 900. Mr. Swan
sons plurality will probably not exceed
80, 600, and, as will be seen, his vote
nearly equalled that of both his competit
ors combined. Complete and official re-

declared that the uulou would absolutely

which these demands would be made.
