of friction almost bordering on mutiny
is said to exist on the new United

maiden trip to receive a silver service

his ship away from the wharves. where
she had been since her arrival, to an
anchorage in the roads so that the Of
ficers might be better able to control
the men, numbers of whom were
leaving the ship and overstaying their
leave. Federal and municipal officers
have today returned nearly two score
men found ashore, many of whom
were said to have been intoxicated.
These men vigorously protested against
the treatment which they allege is ac-
corded them on board ship by Com
mander Cutler. The men among them
several petty officers of long service
pronounce the voyage of the Galveston
the most unbearable and state that
they are overworked. They claim that
for the most trivial offenSes they are
given the extreme penalty and that
four of the men are in irons.
The marines are said to be almost
worn out preserving order on board
The cruiser sailed for Norfolk at noon
today.

Durham, N. c., April 27.-Mrs.

VIEWS OF VISITORS

Senator c.. Fl. Duls and Mr. Hugh
w. Harris, of Charlotte, who have been
here on legal business, being asked
about affairs in their city, said every
thing is very quiet there now, that
the quietest primary election the city
had ever held was proof Of this. Mr..
Harris said that the greatest thing now
talked about is the proposed trolley
line from Charlotte to Gastonia.
Hon. S. NJ. Gattis, of Hillsboro, here
yesterday on legal business, said that
Orange county is getting along timely.
In Hillsboro a new factory is going
up, the Belleview Manufacturing Com
pany's plant, this to be a 100000 knit
ting mill 1--WE will spin our own
yarns there" he said.
Hon. o. F. Mason, of Dallas, here
yesterday on legal business, says that
CASTOR county is kept busy building
cotton mills. He reports that on Tues
day an election will be held to vote
ent it looked as if the proposition
would carry.
Congressman E. w. Pou, who was
here a few days ago, says that his
great fear is that in the event there
should be a Tightening of the tension
of finances during the next few years,
the small banks with $1,000 capital
that are springing up all over the
State in small towns will suffer prob
ably to the extent of a great number
of them being weeded out. These
small banks take entirely too much
risk in loaning out often as much as
95 per cent. of their capital and de-
posts, is his view.
