Durham Says Reports Are Exagger.

Durham, Sept. 28.-At the meet
ing of the board of health last night,
the pellagra publicity situation was
taken up with view to getting the
exact number of known cases and
asking a statement to the public
with reference to 1t.
Friday night the Durham County
Medical society will meet and also
ton. First and foremost win be the
work OF informing the state as 60
the conditions here, perhaps the
most unfortunate and most exagger.
ated news that has gone out from
Durham at all.
The story that there are 200 cases
in Durham and that the situation
amounts almost to "scourge" is
thoroughly unjustife9. This isn't
opinion, it is investigation. It has
been found after a lot Of work by
your correspondent.
Additional seriousness was given
the situation yesterday when Trim
ity girl left college at the instance
of her frightened father, who read
the accounts and ordered her home
Immediately. But for the begging and
the assurance of DR.. w. III. Boone,
health officer of Durham, another
would have gone the day before. The
college authorities are right much
upset by the widespread fear. Mem
bers of the faculty are making an ef-
fort to quiet the parents at home,
and at the same time to get an ac-
curate statement of actual conditions
here.

er there are grounds for setting aside
a verdict when any act not original
1y contemplated or any element not
previously considered enters into the
deliberations of the jury"
Representative Carter took the op-
positef view. He stated that the ques-
ton was not so much one of law as
one of conscience.
''The element of law should never
go beyond the pale of religion" said
he, else the very oath by which wit
nesses are sworn becomes valueless.
If it is not possible for man to
pray to the Almighty for guidance
what recourse has he? Should he
take a human life regardless of the
flaws of his own reasoning? Surely
there is nothing, more potent than
prayer to wipe away prejudice ano

Marched Him Home at the Point of
Gun.

Greensboro, Sept. 28-Consterna-
ton was created in Clegg's pool
room last night at 10 o'clock when
Mrs. J. M. Field, armed with a 80
calibre pistol, walked into the place
and going up to her husband, demand
ed that he accompany her home The
pistol was pointed in the face of the
surprised husband and father. In a
moment number of men in the pool
room were behind Mrs Field and
took the revolver away from her.
AS soon as she was disarmed, Mrs.
Field began to upbraid her husband
for his alleged neglect of herself
and four children, who she is report
ed to have said were starving and
without proper clothes, while he
loafed about pool rooms and spent
his money on bad women.
Her story was pitiful, her appear
ance such as to attract sympathy
and she caught the ears of large
number of men who were about the
place at the time.
She seemed desperate and no doubt
meant to carry out the threat she
had made if her husband had not
gone home with her. Both jealousy
and neglect figured in the escapade.
When her husband did accompany
her outside she caught him by the
arm and jerked him about in the
hotel lobby. When on the street she
began s1apping him and treated him
rather badly. Mr.. Fields travels for
the American Credit Register Com
pany,z and is very we'll known in this
city Friends say that he is consid-
crate of his wife and family, but
others say that he is often seen in
company with other women and is
frequently registered at local hotels,
though he has a family and home
here After the difficulty the man
took the revolver from the woman's
hand examined it and found four OF
the five chambers loaded and the re
volver in working order.

in addition to thirty thousand Turk

the lives of Europeans is causing
hesitation on the part of the war au-
thorities at Rome to act. The Turk
ish press takes the view that this
war is between Christianity and Is

here as to her position having re-
ceived assurances from the powers
that her rights in Tripoi will be
recognized. In return she is advised
by her neighbors not to open hostili-
ties until forced to do so.
Constantinople. Sept. %. turkey

Italy in the dispute over Tripoi and
is reported to entertain strong hope

pean nations.

SENATOR SIMMONS ON

RECIPROCtI
Says the Question Settled Itself and
the Rise in the Price of Farm Pro-
ducts Proves His Position to BE
Correct.
Wilmington, Sept. Ex-senator F.
M. Simmons spent yesterday in the
city on his way to New Bern from
Rockingham, and was pleasantly
greeted by many friends here. He
said that he had nothing to say on
the senatorial race, except that the
situation is indeed highly gratifying
to him. He was asked what he
thought of the recent Overwhelming
defeat of reciprocity in the Canadian
elections.
He laughingly replied that the
question seems to have settled itself
but that he thought the universal
increase in price of agricultural pro
ducts throughout the country the
day following the election was an un-
equivoca1 demonstration of the sound
ness of his position when he opposed
the free trade pact with Canada on
the grounds that it would injure the
American farmer by destroying thf
market for his foodstuffs and other
products
Asked whether he thought that
the defeat of recirrocity in the Cana
dian elections would have any direct
effect on the probabilities of Presi
dent Taft's denomination or whether
1t would have any adverse effect on
the Democratic chances for 1912
senator Simmons stated that he be
heved that whatever damage or ben
ett that would accrue to either oil
the political parties as result oi
the reciprocity campaign had ALREADY
been accomplished before the lN'd
slide in Canada last week. So fal
as reciprocity itself is concerned the
Senator feels that it was finally sn6
deeisively settled by the Canadian
election

TAFT
DELIVERS FIRST
SPEECH OF TRIP
Talks on Agricultural Depart
ment and will Discuss
Politics Later.

Syracuse, n. Y, Sept. 16.-Address-
ing a large crowd, President Taft to-
Gay made the first speech of his trip
here, choosing the agricultural de-
partment for his subject, instead of
politics as had been expected. He said
he expected the $15,OO0,O0O mainten-
ance cost of the department would in
crease, but that the expense would
be justified by the good it would do
the farmers by teaching.
At breakfast he outlined his trip
west, saying he would discuss the is
sues of the day and make clear those
which will be known as my policies" "
He said: While l don't say that
the present department might do the
same work with less money, by clos
eI knit organization, l am confident
that increased appropriations yearly
may be expected. The chief function
of the department Is advisory and ed
ucatlonal and it includes scientific
investigation.
with reference to the improve

active and effective cooperation. by
the state authorities with the federal
authorities, there is nothing left to be
desired.
1T is proposed that every county
and state have trained agriculturists
to be paid partly by the government
and partly by the county. It is
thought that by actual experiment, in
connection with Highschools and ag-
ricultural colleges, such a stimulous
would be given the present generation
of farmers that the effects on the long
coming generations will be doubled.
