A Party of Capitalists Visit the Ore

Winston Salem, n. c., July 1.-Mr.

firm of Sapp & Hasten, has Instituted
a suit for libel against Mr.. M. ID.

of inspecting the working of the Ore
Knob copper mines in that county.
These are mines which James e. Clay
ton we'll known throughout the west
ern part of North Carolina, operated
for many years. Mr.. Clayton built a
fine road fifty-five miles long to trans
port the ingots of copper to the rail-
road at Marion, Va, and he made
great deal of money out of it.
When the price of copper no longer
admitted of such extensive transport
tation the mines were closed down.
Since that time several parties have
investigated the mines with the view
of working them. The ore is low
grade Sulphurette containing an av-
erage of about six per cent copper and
the problem has been to work that
low grade successfully. About three
years ago Mr. oliver S. Garretson in
vented a furnace that would use the
sulphur of the ore as fuel thereby
saving that much cost; and attracted
by the 100000 tons of ore left on the
dumps by Mr.. Clayton, began operat-
ing the mine; but under his contract
with the CLAYTON heirs he had to pay
too big royalty, so closed down.

VERY QUEER CASE
A Woman of iii Fame
PrOsecutes W. ].
Warren.

The hearing of an unusual case was
begun and abruptly terminated yester-
day in Justice Chas. Separk's court. A
white man, w. j.. Warren, of New
Light township, was charged with as
sault with intent to commit rape, and
there were two other charges against
him. all originating at the same trans
action: assault with a deadly weapon.
and forcible trespass After a pro-
ceeding that consumed a considerable
part of the morning, on motion Of the
defendant the case was dismissed,
there being a previous warrant which
was sworn out before Col. Saunders,
and removed to Justice j. A. O'Neill,
of New Light, and the case had been
continued several times The first war
rant was sworn out on February 2Sth,
on the charge of assault with intent
to commit rape, and in the warrant
issued by Justice r. G.. Reid, (the case
being afterwards removed to Justice
Separk) Warren is charged with as
sault with a deadly weapon and forci-
BILE trespass.
Warren is apparently forty years of
age, and the woman in the caseT one
Eula Bailey, is represented to be of
bad character, and is of i'll fame. Her
immortality it is that makes the case
queer. Warren went to her house
one day last February, and demanded
admission. He was refused, and be-
coming enraged at this somewhat in
frequent procedure, he Numbered
down the door, and then threatened
the life of the woman, brandishing a
knife in the air around her. The
woman was pOwerless to resist longer.
At the hearing Messrs. N. Y. Gulley
and j. c.. l.. Harris represented the
defendant, and Mr.. S. G.. Ryan APP
peared for the prosecutrix.
The defense moved to dismiss the
warrant had been previously issued by
Col. VIM. j. Saunders, for an assault
with intent to commit rape which
warrant was based on the same state
of facts as charged in the two warrants
issued by Justice Reid. The trial on
the former warrant is now pending
before Justice j. A. O'Neill, of New
Light township the case having been
removed to him, and continued on
the motion of the prosecution. In eff

The German Ambassador Receives
From Premier ROuVier the French
Response to Germanyis Last
Note.
(By the Associated Press.)

Paris, July 1.-Prince Won Radolin,
the German ambassador, called at the
Foreign Office this evening by appoint
ment, and during a two hours talk
with Premier Rouvier received from
the latter the French response to Ger
many's last note concerning Morocco.
The response takes into consideration
the assurances Germany has given
relative to French interests in MOroc-
co, and modfies some of the objections
at first raised against conference.
The general tenor of the response is
favorable to the principle of con-
ference. Diplomatic circles, therefore,
regard the controversy as practically
closed, as little now remains to he
done except to adjust details. This,
however, may take some time as each
side is contesting every step.

SorroWfully obeyed explaining later
that all he was agoing to do was TO
move a rising vote of thanks to Col.
Osborn for his magnificent hospitality.
The common idea that it takes fish

appetite for enjoying, or an aid for

or bowls of brunswick stew with all
the accomplishments, was certainly
exploded yesterday. There has never
been such eating and Stutiing known

pig which Charles Lamb has immor-
talized and no casualty has been
heard of, or sick man called for a

There was something inspiring to
some who sat at the board yesterday
with those 125 men, all from the dis
ease which had formerly distressed
them and their friends, inflicting tor
lures of body and soul upon them
selves, and evil examples tic their
companions. The strong jaw, active

barbecue and clinking against the

humanity. Through bright and dark
periods, at time when there was
only one man in the expensive insti-

faith in the efficiency of the treatment,
with his money behind it, SO as to
prevent the doors being closed. Taking
