NOT ASK BAIL FOR
THE ROWLANDS
Counsel Afraid It's Refusal

RALEIGH. n. c.. June 1S.-1n the
case OF DR.. David s. Rowland and wife.
held In Jail without bail to answer
the charge OF poisoning Engineer G..
r. Strange, In accordance with the
commitment by Coroner Separks. Is
sued last evening on the strength OF
the verdict of his jury that Strange
came to his death from unnatural
causes. and recommending that Dr.and
Mrs. Rowland be held for the grand
jury OF the July term Of the Wake SUI
perlor Court. It seems that no steps
Will be taken at least for the present,
to procure bail for either OF them. In
fact, there seems to beisome disagree
inient among counsel for the prisoners
as to whether there should be appli-
scaticn for a writ of hnDeas corpus at
an. The more conservative members
OF counsel do not favor effort for ball
lest failure to secure 1t should further
prejudice the case for the Rowlands
when the trial Is finally had.
Mrs Rowland seems to be taking
her Imprisonment with more fortitude
than she did last night. She wcpt
bitterly when she went into her cell
declaring that she could not endure q
night in the jail.

Goycrnor to Act.

Concerning the alleged rough treat
ment Of the Virginia militiamcn OF
Pine Beach by Norfolk county officers,
Governor Swanson said that he would
take no action, pending an oScial re-
port of the affair by General c. c..
Vaughan, and it Is believe that he will
be guided almost wholly in the matter
by General Vaughan's recommended
lions.
Though the Governor did not dis
cuss the subject further, 1t Is under
stood that he feels the alleged out
rage very kcenly. and will do what
ever he thinks is necessary to have
1t thoroughly investigated, II 1T shall
develop that the facts are AS they now
appear.
Governor Swanson is pleased with
the progress which Is being made at
the exposition, and he declares that 1t
is growing better every day and
promises to be wonderful show be-
fore 1t Is over.

Mr.. Kennedy Away.


Librarian John P. Kennedy left yes
terday for Washington. The object OF
his mission to the national capital
could not be learned. nor was any one
in the library in q position to say when
he would return. There Is O. great
deal OF gossip around the two State
buildings with reference to the H.
.brary situation, but none Of 1t seems to
cause concern to the librarlan,> who is
moving along in the even tenor of his
way. Mr.. Kennedy evidently expects
to be sustained In his position by the
new Library Board. as he Is going
ahead with his work and laying out
plans for improvements to be made
far in the future. Mr. Edmund Pen
dleton. the new member of tho board,
who Will succeed Hon. Charles v.
Meredith on July LIST, had q long con-
ference with Governor Swanson yes
terday. and, though 1t is not definitely
known, 1t would not be surprising II
they touched upon matters relating to
the library. Up to this time no call
has been issued for meeting Of the
new board. but one is expected early
in the coming month.
