Mohs After Earle.

New York, Sept. 6.--Loneliness not
fear of his neighbors' vengeance, has
driven Ferdinand Earle, his friends cay,
from his home at Monroe, N. Y. he
has taken up bis residence temporarily
with his mother, Mrs. Lillian G. Earle,
in this city. 1t is understood he will re-
turn 10 Monroe 10 about a week. A
crowd with tar bucket and feather
pillow awaited his expected arrival at
the Monroe station for an hour last night,
but ESrle did not come. 1t is believed
the danger of mob violence has now
passed, but a committee has been organ
lied to serve notice on the artist when
he does arrive that he must quit the town
at once, never to return.
A mob of large proportions gathered
about the handsome Earle home at Mon
roe early today and we're prevented from
breaking In the doors and ransacking the
place only by the advice of several promi-
nent citizens, who said they had search
ed the house and we're certain Earle was
not there.
In a statement replying to newspaper
criticism today Earle used this represen-
tstion: "The papers often contradict one
another as much as the Bible contradicts
itself" Earle hiss settled 5000, 600 upon
his wife.

Mysterious Death.

New York, Sept. 6.-The dead body
of man found today on the Staten lei
and Rapid Transit tracks at South Beach
has given the police another mystery to
wrestle with. 1t is believed the man
was run over by train, but as there were
no witnesses, a murder theory is being
investigated. Clothes of good material,
the well-kept hands aud other marks
lead to the belief that the victim was
man of refinement. The initials "H.
ST." engraved on a watch offer the only
clue to the mans identity. The head
was at first reported missing, adding tc
the mystery, but later was found neal

NOTWITHSTANDING the many assur'
ances of alleged gOod-feeling prevailing
be ween the United States and Japan,
some people are still manifesting anxiety
concerning relations between the two
countries. The United States is making
extensive arrangements on the Pacific
coas. for the care and equipment of the
war,hips that are to be sent there and a
strategic move of vast significance has
been Manned. There is a rumor of the
lease of coaling station in Novik bay
and there has been an increase in the
Notifications in the Philippines. Ihe
administration says the Atlantic coast is
amply protected and no one on this side
of ,h3 country need feel any apprehen-
sion. Hobson is still sounding the war
CRY. He wants to awe Japan" and
SAYS we must "build ships and eat dirt. "
The hero of the Merrimac incident still
believes war is imminent. Hobson urges
that battleship feet be sent to the far
East and kept there. A majority OF the
people of this country still insist that no
serious trouble Will occur between the
United States and Jspsn.

THE RAILROAD GASES,

There were unexpected developments
in the controversy between the State and
the railways at Asheville, N. O., yester-
day when Judge Pritchsrd was asked to
grant another Injunction TO prevent
Jacob A. Long, on behalf OF h. l.. Shaw,
of AlamsDce county, from suing the
Southern Railway and the North Caro-
lima Railroad Company 10 recover pen
alties because Of the failure of these COM
panic, to put into effect the new rate law
July l.
The suits are brought with the knowl-
edge of all parties that Judge Pritchard
had made an order in the case OF b. O.
Beckwi;h ct al, that no suit could be
brought for penalties against the North
Carolina Railroad Company, which is
leased by the Southern Railway, as well
as his order forbiddiug such suits against
the Southern. So far as the Southern
is concerned, the suit is brought against
the advice and request of Gov. Glenn
following the peace compact between the
State and railroads, By which the new
rate was put into effect.
The suits are for the purpose of max
ing an issue of the question OF whether
the federal court can legally epjoin suits
against the North Carolina Railroad
Company, which is State corporation.
The Southern has accepted the cbal'
lenge and called on the United States
Circuit Court to protect its rights, and
that court has taken the first step to
that end.
The Southern has filed supplement
tai bill, in which it sets up that the de-
PENDANTS named we'll knew Of the orders
of Judge Pritchard that neither the
Southern nor the North Carolina rail-
road companies should be sued for penal
ties under the rate law. Judge Pdtch-
ard has issued temporary restraining
order, as he did in the other cases, and
issued a rule against defendants to show
cause before him at Asheville on Sep
TENDER 10 why permanent injunction
should not issue against them.

her By Horace E. Miller, wealthy cellu-
loid manufacturer Of Newark, n. j.,
can return to Europe without inter-
ference by the government, II she only
would, according to an announcement
made today. But she will not go. She
came here TO charge Miller with breach
Of promise, and she said today that she
was determined to press the charge,
since resentment has grown into hatred
through treatment accorded her here.
1t Is asserted that the federal authorities
are anxious TO drop the case and will can
eel the bond under which she is now re-
leased from the charges Of blackmail and
being an undesirable alien.

Washington that the case will be re-
opened within two days." said Edwin
8. Merrill, the girls attorney, 1--WE will
apply to the federal court for an order
to show cause why writ Of mandamus
should not be issued compelling the re-
opening of the case. Nothing will sat
isfy my client now except complete
Vindicalion." Miller has not appeared
in the case publicly, but it was said to-
day that if the case was reopened, be
probably would be forced to appear as q
witness. he is man OF family and is
said to have made love to Miss Klippen-
berg abroad.

CONDITIONS in Morocco are causing
anxiety in European cabinets, and fears
ar, entertained that the storm centie in
the sultan's dominions will bring on a
clash of the powers. Germany is jealous
of France, the Kaiser believing that the
real object OF the French is to play
part similar TO that of Eogland when
that country virtually assumed control
of Egypt after bombarding Alexandra.
Germany's foreign minister has served
an unofficial warning. The Paris gov
eminent is torn by conflicting necessities
of conquering the Moors and keeping
promises made at the Algeciras con-
ference. The African situation is said
to be constantly growing worse. The
British are ignoring the Sultan and are
treating directly With Rsisuli.

CAN THE THORNT0NS SPARE
THE SENATORSHIP
To the Editor of the Manassas Journal:
An Omen Letter

To the Editor of the Manassas Journal:
Sir:-I have made speeches in nearly every
part of this district in the interest OF my car
didacy for denomination as State Senator.
Mr.. r. +. Thornton has been invited to near
liz ali of these meetings, but he has not APP
peared at any of them. have not, therefore,
learned directly from him upon what ground
should be refused denomination. In his cir
cular letter he says he has nothing 70 say
against me Is it not, then, unreasonable Tor
him TO ask the people to turn down Senator
against whose record he has nothing 10 say?
TO a number Of prominent citiS n, OF the
district, am informed, he has confided the
fact that he is running solely in the interest
Of his brother, Judge b. j. Thornton, VINO
will be a candidate for the judgeship before
the next General Assembly. AMI some ofthese
gentlemen have expressed the belief that lt
would be better for Mr.. X. E. Thornton If he
were running in the interest Of the people
rather than altogether in the interest OF his
| brother.
The constitution, which Judge Thornton
helped to make, prohibited any man from
going to the legislature to get himself elected
! Judge. Is it not almost as had TO send ones
proxy there in the person Of ones brother 10
get oneself elected judge2
Moreover, great many people think that
considering how many offices this particular
family have held, are holding and are seek
| ing to hold, it is somewhat grasping for them
to be trying TO send Mr. X. +. Thornton TO
the Senate. Judge Nicol held the circuit
| ia lgeship twelve years. Judge Thornton,
who has been appointed to succeed him, is his
brother.in-law. Judge Thornton was Con-
monwealth's Attorney for many Years, sue
eeeding another bro'her.in-law, the late Mr..
J. j. Davies. Mr. j. Jsnkyn naVies, WHO'S
| son of the former Commonwealth Attorney,
| and nephew of Judge Thornton, is earnest
| ~ endeayoriug to succeed his uncle 10 that
Office. And now Mr.. Z. E. Thornton, another
uncle Of the aforesaid Mr.. j. Jenkyn Davies
and brother Of Judge Thornton, is with fe-
verish activity attempting to succeed your
| humble servant in the State Senate.
| Now, honestly. Mr.. Editor, cont you think
| that this would be a little too much of a
| family party? Wouldn't it remind you just
a triAe of the old time royal families who
| held all Of the offices by hereditary right and
| graciously permitted other people TO enjoy
those few and unimpOrtant Offices which they
| did hot desire for themselves
| Mr. Thornton complains that Alexandra
il getting all Of the offices, but II must be re-
msmbered that the inhabitants Of Alexandria
are somewhat more numerous than the Thorn
| tn family.
| do not wish 10 express any opinion as to
the fitness of these several gentlemen for these
| various positions, but | hope | may not be
| thought presumptuous if | suggest that the
Senatorship shonld be allowed to fall outside
| of the family circle. Very respectfully,

commendatory comments from friendly
Newspapers. In addition to this dis
patch from Cleveland, Ohio, gives de-
gcription of a church to be erected In
that city on modern principles. Mr..
John d. Rockefeller is TO foot the bill.

novel in this country, ard probably In
the world. The edihce is to stand on
the present site of the Euclid Avenue
Baptist Church, the Rockefeller place OF

present structure. 1t will be sixteen
stories high, and will be institutional in
character, having gymnssiums, lecture
rooms in which courses of lectures will
be delivered, rooms for clubs and socie-
ties for the work of men, women and
children in various fields, training
schools for missionaries, servants, arti-
saes. a restaurant, dormitories, and a
hospital with high-class staff.
