TOBACCO CROP DAMAGED.
Market Will Get Active Next Week
Acreage Larger Than Last Year.

Reidsville, n. c., July 18.-Re-
ports from growing crops are so con-
flicting that 1t is hard to arrive a.
any definite conclusion as to their
condition. In some sections there
has been 30 much wet weather that
the crop has been damaged to a
large extent, but should the weather
be favorable from now on there will
be a good crop Of fair quality, &C
cording to growers In Reidsville this
week. I'm this immediate section
weather conditions have been most
favorable. While tho acreage is per-
haps larger than last year very few
IL any of those interested either as
growers or buyers expect to equal
last years crop in quality. Some of
the growers are very much disheart-
ened at the outlook. Then, too, there
;s a general feeling that the crop Is
not going to sell as we'll this winter
as 1t has the past two years. A few
primings may be brought In this
month, but next month Is expected
to see several thousand pounds
placed on the market. II the prices
are anything in the neighborhood Of
what the growers consider fair, 1t is
believed the crop will be marketed
AS fast as the growers can get 1t to
market. Many local tobaconists look
for the fall sales to be even larger
than they WE'RE last year, when all
records were smashed. There is no
denying the fact that those growers
who sold last year before the Christ
mas holidays got more money than
those who waited

Strike of Car Wreckers.

Pittsburg, Pa, July 19.-With
the five thousand striking employees
of the Pressed Steel Car Company
clinging desperately to the hope that
the courts will take action on the
matters at issue between themselves
and the company tomorrow and
compel resumption of operations at
the mills, pending the arbitration of
all existing differences, the sixth day
of the strike at the McKees Rock
plant, passed to-day, unmarried by
even the slightest disturbance.
1t is loudly proclaimed in labor
circles that in the event of the court
declining tomorrow to pass on the
merits of the dispute. the men now
holding the strikers In check will find
1t impossible to longer exert this re-
straining influence, and that riot and
bloodshed will again prevail.
The employers make no secret of
the fact that they will dispute the
courts jurisdiction in the matter and
oppose the issuance of any Injunction
to prevent them from permanently
discharging the first six hundred men
who walked out their shops and pre-
cipitated a strike. The right of the
court to prohibit the importation Of
strike-breakers will also be chal-
lenged.
President Hiffstot, of the company,
perseveres In his determination not
to give way to the delegates of the
strikers.
Meanwhile friends of the strikers
are also active. Financial aid Is to
be rendered them by local Socialists
and by q number of labor organiza-
tions In the Pittsburg district.
Support of another kind is also
said to be at hand through the inter
cession of the Austro-Hungarian con-
sui at Pittsburg. Count Bonnanisza
who Is said to have prepared a peti-
tion for submission to the Depart.
ment of Commerce and Labor al

Residence Destroyed By Fire.

Rocky Mount, N. c., July 1S.-
Having caught from the kitchen dur
ing an early hour Friday morning,
the home of Mr.. Wilson Wick, about
six miles from this city in Nash
County, near the Dortches section,
was destroyed by fire. His family,
who were the sole occupants of the
home, were forced to fee for their
lives and nothing was saved. The
loss represents about $1,000. That

though his home was destroyed after
midnight, before the noon hour yes
terday he had a force of hands NOV.

had already engaged the carpenters

Roanoke, Va, July 16.-Rev. w.
H. Joyce, pastor of Trinity Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, had an ex-
citing experience in his church study
yesterday morning with a robber and
came near losing his life. His power
full physique saved him, but as the re-
suit of the scrimmage, the preacher
was wounded on the hand with a
hatcket welded by an unidentified
man. Early in the morning the man
called at the parsonage and asked for
the church keys, presumably to do
some repair work in the church.
Later Mr.. Joyce had occasion to 60

went to another door and gained an
entrance. He found the stranger
who had asked for the keys apparent
ly robbing the church.
The two men glared at each other
for q moment, when the intruder
armed with a hatcket, aimed a ter
rife blow at the preachers head. The
latter caught his wrist as the blow
descended, but was considerably cut
on the hand. For fifteen minutes the
men were engaged in struggle, but
the stranger finally broke the holt
of the preacher and ran.

Berlin Dispatch to The New York
Times.l
Judge Wilhelm Sch~arze, q promi-
nent member of the Reichstag and OF
the Prussion House of Representa-
tives. seizes upon Americas elcy-
enth-hour use OF moral force TO se-
cure participation In the Chinese
railway loan az a pretext for n freSh
and vigorous warning aginst the
American peril.
Writing in Der Tag. under the cap
ton. Europe for Europeans" the
learned judge urges that England
and Germany abandon their mutual
suspicious, trade competition. and
naval rivalries and league themselves
without further delay against their
common enemy from across the
water.
America declares the Iurist aud
politician. lis the peril not only for
England and Germany. but for all
Europe. Instead of arriving At com
man ways and means for combating
the still latent danger. England and
Germany are preparing TO tear each
other TO pieces. In order TO make
the danger acute. Greater Britain
and Greater Germany would go TO
smash on account OF the United
States.
Europe should realize this In time
to preserve what is still to be pre-
served. The yellow peril is altogeth-
er secondary. Our imperial cousin
in America Is the greater danger.
The dollar is the bigger. IL will an
initiate the shilling and the mark
unless Europe sets up its own Mon
roe doctrine OF Europe for Euro
peans. This doctrine must eyentu-
ally take the form OF an economic al
lance of all Europe. including Eng
land. otherwise America will be the
conqueror In the world battle and
will exhaust Europe
In case OF European war. Amer
lea would be q 'tertius gaudens' for
Europe and Japan for Asia. The
cause of this war would be not the
recovery OF Alsace-Lorraine. but the
supremacy Of the sea and the world
markets. No matter who Won. Amer
lea would be the eventual and the
supreme gamer.
1t Is high time to explode the
fiction that England and Germany
are the chief rivals for the world
trade dominion, and that whoever Ia
defeated the other would attain TO
it. The competitors are not England
and German. America is not only
the competitor of England and Ger
many alone. but both of them to-
gether."

For q New Office Building.

Washington, D. c., July ia
suitable Office building in this city,

ment, and some of the executive Of
fcers. Is sought by the Southern Rail-
way. The generaIofice building. on
Pennsylvania Avenue having become
inadequate, the Southern's clerical
force is now scattered about the city
in a half-dozen rented buildings.
The Southern has never gone to
the point Of buying land and erecting
an Office building here Of sufficient
size to accommodate its large forces,
as the roads officials realize the ad-
visibility Of ultimately transferring
the headquarters OF the system to q
more central point.
Attractive financial propositions
have been received from various
Southern cities desiring to be made

BIG CANTALOUPE CROP.
Heavy Shipping OF Cantaloupes From
MAxton Section.

Maxton, July 1s.-The Canta-
loupes are beginning to move freely
from our section now, and to-day IL
has been dificult to get iced cars suf-
fcient for loading them. While some
of our growers have been shipping In
a small way for some three or four
weeks, not until this week have
there been any solid car loads taken
from this point, but as the yield In
very large In most fields. and labor
fairly plentiful, next week should sec
from five to ten cars daily leaving.
One OF our growers tells me he is
assured Of from three to four hun
dred cratesh per acre, which Ii
good yield; and the price thus far
has averaged over q dollar net. IL
will be several days yet before the
watermelons will begin 10 move. and
as the crop Is light, shipments will
not be as heavy az last season
Work was recommended on the
buildings of Carolina College this
week, and subscriptions are coming
in all right. and those behind the
work say they have determined that
there saall be no further cessation Of
work until completed. which they
hope to have done by the first OF the
year. Now that money IL easier.
there should be no delay whatever
In this most important work. and we
trust the managers will have no diff
ficulty whatever In securing funds
necessary for the rapid prosecution
OF the work.

Rural Free Delivery.
Clinton News-Dispatch.1

Clinton News-Dispatch.1
The Charlotte Observer in an edi-
torial says:
Rural free delivery of mail in this
country is still in its infancy, having
been established only a few days ago.
The Post-office Department, with
much hesitancy and fear that the
system would prove a failure, estab-
lished one or two routes as an exper-
iment. 1t was success from the be-
ginning. It's Importance grows with
the establishment of each new route.
Nothing the Government has ever
done for the people has been of
greater benefit to them. The people
in the rural districts at once realized
as they had never done before isolat-
ed position and the great advantage
this system would be to them. Not
only the people living in the coun-
try are benefited, but also the citi-
Zens of the towns from which the
routes radiate find 1t of great serv-
ice. Furthermore, the system wher-
ever established has acted as an edu-
Gator to the people in the country
and has made farm life less lonesome
and dreary by putting them in closer
touch with the outside world and
giving them better opportunity for
| newspaper reading Notwithstand-
ing the system was inaugurated only
few years ago as an experiment of
doubtful success there are now near
ly fifty thousand routes in operation
and new ones are being applied for
faster than they can be established
| by the Post-office Department, and 1t
is very seldom indeed that a route
is discontinued because of insuffici-
ent patronage. These facts alone
show how popular Is this system of
giving better mail facilities to that
class Of our people who were here
tofore cut off from convenient in
tercourse with each other and with
the centres of traffic in their sections
Of the country"
We clip the above from the Char
lotte Observer, and in view of the
wonderful success and popularity OF
the rural free delivery system. the
above observation on the part of our
esteemed contemporary are very
timely. The Observer Is usually very
careful to keep history straight, and
to claim for North Carolina due cred.
1t for the notable achievements OF
her people. and all that is necessary
to make the above article of the Oh.
server complete and true to history
is to add that the rural free delivery
system, now so universally used ani
indispensable to the rural sections
was established by our National Gov
ernment at the instance and earnes-
efforts OF a North Carolina Senator
and we are proud of that fact, as thi
Senator was none other than Senato
