Glenn Fights for Cheap Freight
Having won victory over the rail-
roads by compelling them to give to
the public the 2 1-4-cent passenger
rate, Gov. Glenn, of North Carolina,
has now gone after the roads on the
question of freight charges.
The governor has written a very
plain letter to the various railways,
charging that freight rates are ex-
cessive in many cases, as the result
of gross determinations in favor. of
Virginia and against North Carolina.
Gov. Glenn declares to the railroads
that this state must be given gate
ways for her commerce, Of which, he
says, it now has none.
Though armed with a. large fund
authorized by the legislature for in
vestigating purposes, Gov Glenn tells
the railroads he wishes, if possible,
to settle the freight rate questions
without litigation.
In answer, the governor received
word frcm The Atlantic Coast Line,
the Southern, the Norfolk and West
ern and other roads, agreeing to con-
fer with him and the State Corpora
ton Commission on August 9, on
freight rates.
= To Make the Turrets Safe.
A special board to devise means
to prevent, if possible, such explo-
sions as that aboard the battleship
Georgia, is to be appointed soon by
Acting Secretary Of the Navy New
berry. This announcement was made
Mr.. Newberry, after he had taken
luncheon with President Roosevelt,
at Sycamore Hill.
Mr.. Newberry said:
"The facts as found by the board
which investigated the accident will
be used as working basis. The new
board will not go into the causes of
the explosion, but will try to find
out how to avoid them in future. It
is hoped that no more such accidents
will be possible when the new plans
are formulated It will cost a great
amount OF money to reconstruct the
turrets in our war vessels, but every
thing possible will be done to make
them SAFE"

Japan's Big Boom Ends in Crash.
In letter received by the Frank
furter Zeitung, at Berlin, from Toxic,
is told story Of heavy financial
losses, with many industrial COM
panies in liquidation. The letter says
that after Japan's war with Russia,
between July, 1906, and January,
1907, 1886 new companies we're or
ganized with an aggregate capital of
$3O2,0OOOOO, while $50 old COM
panies added $123,OOO,OOO to their
capital
This industrial movement went on
with increased energy for the frs!
FIVE months of the year, during which
time 1,169 new companies, with a
total capital of $112,O0O,0O0, we're
registered, while 249 old companies
absorbed $63,OOO,0OO of new capt.
tai.
This excessive activity in establish
ing new companies has been accom-
plished by a great wave Of specula-
ton, all classes, even the poorest, buy
ing stocks on margin. Instead of
the hoped-for advance in prices, how
ever, a sharp fall has occurred, and
distrust has become so marked that
there have been runs on banks. Thir-
teen banks were forced to suspend
payment, either temporarily or perma-
nently.
The condition of some gave strik-
ing evidence to the extent to which
the banks had been stretching their
credit. One bank closed because of
a sudden demand to pay out $4,000
while another, with deposits Of ST.
100000, could not pay 100000
The depression has already been so
severely felt that 175 of the new com
panies went into liquidation in April
and May.
The crisis has been marked by
a heavy fall in stocks, even good div
idend-payers losing greatly. The
shares of the Toxic Railway Com
pany, which has a monopoly of the
electric street car traffic in that city.
are quoted at rs, though its last div
idend was 7 IL per cent
In the Nagoya district, where the
pinch was worst, the banks combined
to check the panic and were strong
ly supported by the National Bank
of Japan, which not only extended
aid to shaky private banks, but also
to silk and tea growers.
Negro Lynched.
Jaames Reed, a negro, was lynched
at Crisfeld, Nd, a few hours after
he had crept up behind Policeman
John H. Daugherty and shot him
dead.
Saturday night Daugherty arrested
on a warrant a negro named Hillery
