Big Railroad Conference

Washington. June 6.-Peace or war
hangs in the balance today on the
conference between the railroa j
chiefs and President Taft over the
administrators fight against increa s.
ed rates. "How far are you going in
opposition to rate making commit
tees?" and Cannot agreement he
reached peaceab1y?" was the gist OF
the questions with which railroad
magnates came here to talk. The
chief claim of the railroad men in the
dispute now before the president is
tnat they are entitled to a greater IN
come from freight rates because they
are now paying s12O,OOO,00O in wages
more than before the panic and urou
their prosperity rests the development
OF the sparsely settled far west Also
tEey claim that railroad supplies are
higher and without higher rates they
cannot buy supplies. President Brown
OF the New York central says he is
willing to have the entire question
left with the interstate commerce
commission and other railroad men
regard this as the speediest solution
OF the matter. President Taft this
norning conferred with Attorney Gen
eFal Wickersham and reviewed the
question in preparation for the meet
ing with the railroad presidents. The
railroad men held a secret NEE. .trg
yesterday and are ready to present
their demands. President Ripley. of
the Atchison, is spokesman for the

State Needs 2.21f.ooO.

Raleigh, June Ga statement was
issued Saturday by State Treasurer
Lacy showing that the actual number
of bonds of the state falling due July

bonds already sold reduce the amount

amount still to be sold by June 10 if

With a view to being enabled, If

shut out but Brooks. the new pitcher,
secured from Lynchburg, was on the
mount for the first time ard pitched a
no-hit game and did not walk man.
One man was hit, however. It was by
far the best game played here this
season and, in fact, it could not be
compared to the others. In the fifth
inning Turner was hit on the head by
a ball while at the bat. and had to re-
tire. He was not seriously hurt.
Richardson then went into the box.

Taft Speaks on Socialism.

jackson, Mich, June 6.-Pres;den4
Taft Saturday proclaimed socialism
as the great problem that confronts
the American people, the issue that ts
soon to come and that must be skill.
lully met. But it's history, he declar.
ed, the Republican party had shown
Itself capable of dealing with the
great question effectively and wisely
and he predicted that the American
people must soon determine whether
1t shall trust the same party with the
solution of "that problem than which
we have had no greater in the history
of the country" :;
Ihe presidents reference to social
ism came at the conclusion of
brief history of what the Republican
party has done.
He said:
"1'he issue that is being framed,
as 1t seems to me, is the issue with
respect to the institution of private
property. There are those who charge
to that institution the corporate
abuses, the unequal distribution of
property, the poverty of some and the
undue wealth of others, and therefore
say We will have none of it and we
must have a new rule of distribution
that for want of better name we
shall call socialism,
"On the other hand it is contended
that it is not the institution of private
property that shall be abolished. but
only that the time has come in which
IT is necessary to lay down certain
rules restricting and regulating the
use of that private property which
shall not deprive the world of in.
dividual effort but which shall still
keep the law and the opportunity to
use private property under such con-
troll that these abuses may be wiped
out and the boon of individual effort
still be left to us.
"Now, my friends, that presents a
great and difficult problem that 1 am
quite willing to admit we have not
yet solved it; and the question which
the country will have to determine
after all, is, which party it is which
has heretofore shown sufficient skill
and effectiveness in dealing with
great issues, which party can be
trusted to solve that problem than
which we have had no greater in the
history of the country

Noted Pickpocket Caught.

Charlotte, June 6.-Information re.
ceived here Saturday was ito the eff.
feet that the noted professional pick.
pocket John Davidson, arrested dur.
ing President Taft's visit here, May
90, 1903. and who escaped from the
county jail by answering to another
name when the other party's name
was called by deputy Johnson to be re
leased, has been captured in New
York City. It was believSd at the
time that Davidson had schemed his
release with pal whose prospects OF
servitude were less gloomy than Da-
Wilson's but, the charge never could
be sustained.
The news will bring happiness ito
the heart Of every policeman IN the

Taft to Confer With Railroads Pres
dents,

dents.
Detroit, June 6.-President Taft has
consented to receive at the white
house a delegation of railroad presi-
dents today who seek an interview
with him regarding the proceedings
instituted by the government against
the Western Traffic association. The
meeting is entirely on the initiative of
the railway men, but, following his
custom of hearing all sides of ques-
ton at issue, the president promptly
granted the request for the confer
ence.
The details are left to the presi
dents secretary in Washington. Taft
is not even aware which of the rail
road chiefs will call on him or the
nature of their business.
The assumption. however, is that
the railroad heads desire to take up
with the president the matter of the
injunction against the increase in
freight rates. UNIFORMED as to the
exact purpose of the call, the presi.
dent would not discuss the matter.

Russia Has Deported 10000 Jews

Berlin, June 6.-The expulsion of
Jews in Russian is increasing day by
day, according to the dispatches re-
ceived by the Jewish Aid Society here.
Up to the present more than 10000
Jews throughout the country have
been expelled from the forbidden ter.
ritory, and not less than 1000 of these
reside in Kiev. In most of the cases
no notice was given to the people,
who were compelled to leave the
cities Immediately, abandoning their
businesses, their houses and belong
ings.
Doctor Bernard Kahn, secretary of
the society, who is in constant COM
munication with Russia, says that
some tradesmen and artisans from the
majority of those expelled, and it is
they who are placed in the most dire
straits.
No details have been received of
any facts Of brutality towards the
Jews, however. Streams of emf
grants are proceeding to the United
States, Canada and the Argentine Re-
public, and indeed, wherever they
have relatives, but most of them un-
der the guidance of Rabbits, are turn
ing to Oriental Turkey, where the
Jewish leaders are making arrange
ments to establish colonies.

WILSON AGAIN IN
FIRST POSITION
Wilmington and Goldsboro Also Won
Saturday. Unfortunate Accident at
All Three Games

Wilson again went to first place
| Sa aturday afternoon when the cham
pions defeated Fayetteville three to
two in another exciting contest. 1t
was a pitchers battle between Lane
and Luyster, Lane yielding only four
hits, all but one singles while Luys-
ter was hit for three singles, one two
bager and one three bagger An un-
fortunate accident happened in the
ninth inning when Lane hit Luyster
on the he'd, rendering him uncon-
scious. Luyster was taken to the
Wilson sanitorium and had so far i'm
proved yesterday as to return to Fay
etteville in the afternoon. 1t is ex-
pected that he will be all right in a
few days.
Wilson made the first score in the
fourth inning when Mcclellan singled,
and ran around the bases on wild
throws.
In the sixth Fayetteville made two
runs, when Mullins singled, Dobson
and O'Haloran sacrificed him to third.
Donovan reached first on error and
Mullin scored; Donovan stole second
and went to third on wild throw and
scored on Jacobs error.
Wilson tied the score in their half
Of the sixth. Guerrant knocked a three
bagger, Schuman knocked a grounder
TO short and Guerrant stole home.
Wilson made the deciding run in the
seventh inning when Clapp singled.
stole second and scored on Arm
strong's two-bagger.
The features of the game were
Lanes pitching the fast fielding of
Dobson, Mcclellan and Guerrant, and
the catching of Westlake.

good and the game devoid of kicking

Early Agreement Expected on Rail
road Bill.

|
Washington, June 6.-Although II
came as a surprise to many, there
are numerous indications that the
senate and house might reach a
prompt agreement on the railroad
bill through practical acceptance by
the house of the senate bill While
there was no uncertainty there were
many straws pointing that way. This
would have the effect of fastening the
adjournment of congress and mem
bers prophesied that with the railroad
bill agreed upon, adjournment would
come within three weeks.
Saturday, Senators Aldrich, Crane
and Elkins were over on the house
side engaged in conference with
Speaker Cannon and Representative
Mann, of Illinois, who has charge OF
the house bill. Mr. Mann said that
as far as he was concerned, person
ally, he would agree to the senate
bill. He said there were many things
in the house measure which we're not
il the one adopted by the senate up
on which he would insist. Also. there
were some things in the senate bill
to which he objected.
/ There was, however, said Mr..
Mann, a strong movement among
some of the insurgent Republi-
cans, as well as regulars, who voted
together to amend the bill when it
was in the house, to accept the senate
Dill as being near approach to what
they desired. 1t was learned also that
the Democrats were practically pre-
pared, or at least those who have led
the fight on the railroad bill on that
side were prepared to accept the SEN
ate bill rather than take chances on
what difference between the two
houses would evolve.
The subject will be called up in the
house tomorrow when Mr.. Mann will
move non-concurrence and appoint
ment Of conferees. If conferees are
named no one is willing to- predict
how long it might take to secure q
mutually satisfactory outcome. nor
what the ultimate agreement would
be.
The principal differences which
would cause trouble in conference are
the sections in the house bill provid-
ing for physical valuation an the
regulation of the issue of stocks and
bonds, which are not in the senate
bill and the long and short haul and
telegraph and telephone clauses,
which widely differ in the two bills.

Historical Society Will Publish His
tory of Repudiated Bonds.


Raleighy June 6-In view of the con-
tlnued Misrepresentation of the atti-
tude of the state of North Carolina to-
ward the reconstruction bonds. re-
pudiated by the states as fraudulent,
the North Carolina historical com
mission will publish at an early date.
complete documentary history of all
the transactions of the state of North
Carolina relative to the issuance and
sale of bonds.
Th1s will be one of the most yalu.
able public documents ever issued by
the state. 1t will contain eyery bill
introduced into the general assembly,
every law passed by the assembly. ey-
cry report of the committees of the
assembly, (every message of the gov
ernors, and all the financial transac,
tons of the treasury department. re-
latlng to bonds and every other docu
ment that can be found that will
throw light on the states attitude to-
ward her obligations. In short. the
volume will be complete history of
the bond issues of the state as shown
in original documents.
These documents will be collected
and edited by thoroughly compet-
ent editor. There will be such explain.
atory notes as will make all the docu-
ments plain even to the reader unini-
tiated in financial affairs, and an in
PRODUCTION giving in succinct form
plain, unvarnished history of the
states bond issues.
A copy of this volume will be plac-
ed in the hands of every governor of
state in the union, in every library
and in every important public library.
1t will thus make available in con-
venient form, for any person who is
interested, or may be interested in the
bonds of the state, complete and au-
thoritative information on that sub
ject, and will be the states answer
to such disingenious and misleading
statesments as that recently issued by
the committee for the holders of spe
cial tax bonds of North Carolina. and
addressed to the secretary of the
stock list of New York stock ex-
change.
The state historical commission
hopes to have the volume out some
time in the early fall. The commits
sion believes that this publication
will show plainly that North Carolina
did not violate it's duty as a member
of the union and defy the constitution
of the United States, as Mr.. Carlisle
and his associates would have the
country believe, in repudiating the
special tax bonds, and will make it ev-
ident that instead, as the above COM
mittee says, of making "piteous ap-
peals to the local authorities of the
creditor states to refrain from taking
judgments on the special tax bonds
donated to them and thereby bring
ing about settlement for the bene-
fit of their citizens the state might
with perfect safety invite the issue.
At the same time, in justice to the
other states, North Carolina wishes
them to understand thoroughly the
character of the bonds which the COM
mittee of the bondholders are seeking
nation, completely and plainly, this
proposed publication of the state his.
torical commission will give.
