New York, Oct. 12=Prof W. D. Mil
Ter of the University of Berlin sent
shivers down the backs of the students

lecture that the bite of a girl would
often bring a quicker and more horri-

special study of the bacteria of the

Atehison, Kas.s Oct 12.-Prof A
Peasley, charged with poisoning his
wife, has been acquitted by a district

maintains his innocence, and says that
the letter introduced in evidence was

thrown. through the bars and that he
kept it for two weeks. asking every

THE people of Cuba are open-mind-

thinkers, without meaning what we
understand by the term. They mean
they are not bound to any belief but
are open to conviction. Some of the
people. however are plunged in the
depths of religious ignorance. Some
time ago a number of negroes were
put on trial for numbering white in

this as part of a so-called religious
rite.

DEAL CASE SPURS
THE REVENUE MEN
Access of Activity That
Deceives Nobody.
OPEN AS DAY
Witnesses iu Deal Trial Summoned
Before Grand Jury. Hint OF Coming
Struggle In Which Holton Mill
Strike at the Head of
Blackburn.
BY X. Il. GRAY.

Greensboro. N. c.. May 19.-Since
the Deal trial the news from Wilkes
boro is that there has been remark
able activity displayed ~ the revenue
officers in raiding illicit distilleries In
this work officers Hasty and Samuels,
the two who assaulted the editor have
been very prominent. Other officers
engaged are Green and Bryan and
since the Deal trial on Monday | am
reliably informed that they have cut
up more than a dozen distilleries. This
access of industry is of course with
the purpose of disproving the charges
made by Deal, Vannoy and Adams who
went into the names of those who had
voiced the rumorS which constitute a
tale that is general reputation in
Wilkes.
The blockaders are a queer lot
judged by ordinary standards. They
come in from the mountains. their
pockets bulging with their product. a
white liquid with a blue scum above
the bead. There is no more real con-
cealment about their operations or
calling than about the members #
the bankers association at Winston
who is that MANI | asked several
times.
"A blockader from Lewis Fork or
Hunting Creek or other township"
was the inevitable reply. and this from
Republicans as well as Democrats
But testimony is a different matter.
The names given by Deal and others
create a first-class sensation, and the
end is a question of varied opinion.
From q gentleman here tonight who
is just from Wilkes / learn that all
witnesses in the Deal trial who testi-
fed to blockade matters have been
summoned before the grand jury
What this will mean and what the
end will be is for the future, depending
entirely upon the nerve of those who
are involved.
The enigma of comment is. District
Attorney Holton. He represented the
officers indicted under orders, from
Chapman as a government official. 1t
is notoriously known that he was not
consulted by his clients and that they
regarded him as an enemy One opin-
ion is that he desires to push the mat
ter up. The other and better one is
that he used his attorneyshiD for the
defence for the procurement of infor-
nation on which to base a thorough
investigation. The end of this is un-
derstood to be the head of Spencer
Blackburn. In fact it is his head or
Holtons The two are severe enemies.
Holton expects to show Blackburn s
connection with the revenue frauds.
Blackburn's friends say that he will
show that Holton has been merely
perniciously active over reports from
sources that speak without authority.
That is the bottom of the fight from
the party standpoint. The moral is
sue is lost in the scuffie. 1t is politics
all through with justice incidental to
the issue. What the result will be
depends on what the witnesses sum-
moned will tell the grand jury. AS
to the stills DESTROYED they are all said
to have been old coppers prepared in
advance for demonstration: that is.
stills that had been worn out in the
business and had been especially put
up to be cut up.

Mass. Who Tampered With
the Switch?
the Switch !?

Especial to News and Observer.)
Elizabeth City. ~ c., May 19.-The
Norfolk and Southern combination
freight and passenger train, COM
posed of thirty freight and two pas
senger and an express car, was wreck
ed this morning at about eight o'clock,
just outside the yard limits of
Mackey's Ferry, while making the
schedule between that town and Bel
haven, by dashing into an open switch
at the rate of twenty miles an hour,
the result being the death of one man
and the injury of several others.
The engine was hammered into an
almost shapeless mass, and two
freight cars were smashed into frag-
ments.
1t is claimed that the switch had
been tampered with, the lock having
been broken and the switch thrown
open.
When Engineer Harry Butts and his
fireman saw the trouble the air and
steam brakes were applied and both
jumped, the engineer receiving sew
eral bad sprains and bruises, and the
fireman, who had been in six previous
wrecks. escaping without a scratch.
Flagman Jake Savage, a negro, was
walking the freight cars at the time.
and was caught between the tender
and forward car, and the lower part
of his body was horribly smashed He
had to remain wedged between the
cars for an hour and twenty minutes
waiting for the train from Washington
before he could be removed. He was
conscious all that time and his pitious
cries and prayers moved many of the
spectators to tears. He died in five
minutes after he was removed.
In the two passenger cars were
about twenty-five passengers of both
sexes, but all escaped serious injury.
Mr.. r. T. Johnson, of Pantego, was
thrown across a seat and received
painful injuries about his head and
face.
All efforts will be made to appre-
bend the person or persons who tam
pered with the switch and it is be-
lieved that the company will offer a
reward.
