ALMOST TRAGEDY ENACTED
OFFICERS COME NEAR SHOOT.
ING HAYWOOD WILLIAMS.

What came near being a tragedy
was enacted on Milton avenue late
last Friday when Haywood VII
liams attacked Officers Peasants and
Hall with long knife. The officers
went TO the home OF Williams to
serve some foreclosure papers. When
they got within about 30 yards OF
the house Williams came out with a
large knife in his sleeve. He shout
ed TO the officers that they had better
shoot him and shoot him quick, 2
advancing on them rapidly as he
spoke with knife drawn. The officers
drew their guns and we're on the
verge OF putting them into action
when Williams halted just a few feet
from them.
The officers went to the house of
Williams TO take over some mort.
gagged property and had no idea Of
the beiligerent intentions OF the
mortgagor. Williams was finally
handcuffed and brought 10 the
sheriff's Office.

ALLISON PAID
THE PENALTY
Elccirocuied This Morning Il The
States Prison

Raleigh. Feb. 27.-out at the
states prison last Friday at 1880
O'Clock ]. B. Allison, of Buncombe
county. paid the death penalty in the
electric chair for the murder Of
Floyd White, or MCGEE. in Buncombe
county. Governor Kitchen had been
appealed to In vain to interfere with
the electrocutions the last appeal be-
ing yesterday, by son Of the con-
demned man. The electrocution was
in the presence or the prescribed 80
spectators. The case was quite a
notable one. Allison and the MUIR
dered man had been at outs for a
long while over a woman. At the
fatal quarrel Allison fired three
shots and when his victim fell he
snapped his gun at him two other
times and then took blacksmith's
hammer and pounded his head to a
pulp on an old avil that lay near.
Allison attempted to commit sui
eide after conviction and vowed the
officer would never get him to Raj
eigh for the electrocution alive. The
plea for Communication has been
principally on the ground Of mental
irresponsibility. He has killed three
men In his time.

POWER OF THE COMBINE
Investigation Of International Trust
Demanded by Resolutions Calling
ON the State Department and At
torney General for Information.
A Tax on People.

Washington. Feb. 27.-With the
charge that the worlds coffee supply
has fallen into the control of huge
International trust; that prices have
been unconscionably increased in the
last few months; that the trust is so
powerful that no ordinary means will
reach 1t; that American interests are
Intimately involved in its conduct;
and that the United States is the
chief victim of its operations, Repre-
resentatiye George w. Norris, of
Nebraska, Thursday introduced reso-
lutions calling on the state depart
ment and the attorney general to
inform congress what can be done to
relieve the people of this country.
In the last four months coffee
prices have been advanced to an ex-
tent which involves an annual tax on
the American public of many millions
of dollars. Moreover. the advance
has been largest in the cheaper
grades. used by the people of limited
means.
Coffee dealers say that in the
period indicated, retail prices have
gone up so that coffee formerly sold
at Is cents now commands 20 cents
per pound: that which formerly
brought Is now sells for 90; the IS
cent coffee OF three months ago now
sells at "a cents, and coffee which
formerly sold at % now sells from
80 TO 80.

"Following the great crop Of 1896

great crop the next year made condl.
lions still worse. The state OF Sac
Paulo undertook 70 buy up and hold

for its financial resources, and the
state appealed 70 the national govern.

II has been conservatively esti-
mated that the cost of these increases
will aggregate no less than the ire
mendous tax of SIS. 100000 year
on the coffee used on the American
table alone.
In introducing his resolution, on
which he will speak at length at the
earliest opportunity. Judge Norris
who is the leader of the house insur-
gents. made this statement concern
ing his own investigation OF the cof-
fee situation:
Early In the present session my
attention was called 10 the condition
In the coffee market. I have devoted
a great deal Of time to the subject
ever since. and the situation that
have discovered. through examine

and consular documents. and inter-
views with authorities in the trade,
has astonished me, as I think it will
