he was met by citizens, and it is
quite likely he was given sufficient
treatment to cure him of improper
letter writing.

Lexington, Nov. 29.-S. l.. Rich
ardson, the prominent lumber man,
who has been in Jail here snce last
Monday with several charges Of OBJ
tanning money under false Dretences
and of forgery resting against him,
still refuses to give out anything for
publication.
He was seen by the News and Cou-
rier correspon ndent this afternoon and
asked whether he would obey the
order OF Judge Gage, which was is
sued last Monday requiring him aud
the Carolina National Bank, ot Co
lumbia, to show cause why restrain
ing order should not be rendered en-
joining the defendants from dispos-
ing of the property set out in the

| justed by the courts. Richardson
stated that he had not been served
| with copy Of the order of Judge

up between now and tomorrow
| morning" he certainly would not
! obey the order.

good authority that Richardson's fa-
ther, who is said to reside in Okla

| and it is thought that an amicable
settlement between all parties may
| be arranged. Whether this can be
accomplished or not remains to be
seen.
Richardson seems to be perfectly
| contented with his surroundings here
| and the treatment he receives at the
| hands Of the officers who have him
| in charge. He passes away the time
| reading the newspapers and his
Bible. This afternoon he was read
| ing his Bible and seemed to be very
| much interested in the passage he
was reading.

saye Mine Owners Were Responsible
for Explosion in Coal Mine.

Chicago.-W. ID. Haywood, former
secretary of the Western Federation
OF Miners. denounced President
Roosevelt, Governor Gooding of Idaho
and other public officials at a mass
meeting of Socialists, held here Sun
day afternoon. AT the close of the
meeting resolutions were adopted pro-
testing against the use. of troops in
the strike of miners in Alaska.
The throwing of the bomb in New
York he referred to as "the work of
a poor deluded mortal who sought to
take by force what he was in Justice
entitled to-" and the explosion in a
coal mine in Wyoming he character
lied as murder which the capitalist
mine owners were responsible for !"
No reference was made by Haywood
to the reported attempt to assassinate
Bulkely Wells at Telluride, although
he urged the necessity for funds to
defend Steve Adams, whose trial on
a charge of numbering Arthur l.. Col
Inns Is pending.

ENGLAND FEEDS AMERICA
WITH HER OWN MEAT.
Timed Goods Reshpped to New
York From London as Result of
Scarcity of Meat In America.

Chicago-A special from London
says: Two million pounds of timed
meat, valued at 100000, have been
reshipped to New York from London
during the last few weeks as a result
of the scarcity of meat in America.
AS consequence of the recent finan-
cial crisis, American farmers who
were unable to effect loans placed
their cattle on the markets instead
of feeding them, with the result that
price of meat fell while it's consump-
ton increased. a
From this fact has resulted the
unusual spectacle of England feeding
America with its own meat, even
with the freight to pay twice across
the Atlantic"
A representative of a Chicago firm
here says: I'VE have been able to
sell the reshipped goods in America
at prices 6 per cent higher than we
could obtain here. London today is
the cheapest meat market in the
world.
