Washington, d. c., Feb. 26.-J. Ell
wood Cox, President of the CONNER
speak for the State of North Carolina

gress in Atlanta March Sth, 9th and

ness affairs in North Carcliaa since
ern Commercial Congress will be to
the topic ''The Solid South of Busi-
ness.'' Equally distinguished men
from each of the other Southern
States will speak to the same topic,

used for national distribution.

county. He received his education in
Guilford College, the Business College
cf Baltimore and at Earlham, and
the Friends College of Indiana. He
taught for a short time and in 1883
he associated himself with Capt. w.
H. Snow at High Point in the manu-
facture of spokes handles, shuttle
blocks and bobbin heads. Some years
ago Mr.. Cox sold out hfs spoke and
handle business, and has confined his

FRENCH GOV,
AGAIN SHAkY
The LACK OF Confidence MAKES
PREMIER BRAND
SICK
The COUNTRY ALAPMED

Paris, Feb. 27.-Premier BRAND and
the members of his cabinet resigned
today. They reached this decision
Saturday afternoon at a conference
in the Premier's office when the poll
teal situation was thoroughly can
vassed from beginning to end. The
bare majority of sixteen, which the
government received Saturday in a
vote of confidence in the Chamber Of
Deputies, following the Premier's ar
raignment by the radical socialists,
Louis Malvy and Paul Meunier, was
sore blow to the Premier and his as
sociates, who had been sustained
many times in previous crises by
much larger votes. In the end, M.
BRAND declared that he was "sick of
it ALL"
The only reason for waiting until
| today to present their seignations to
the President is that the ministers
wish to show their respect for the
memory of their late colleague, Cen
eral Brun, whose funeral took place
this morning.
ThQrn c nj iTfu
what will happen, whether President
Fallaiers, after taking counsel with
| the leaders of the Parliamentary
group will ask Mr.. BRAND to stay in
power or whom he will invite to form
| new ministry
The decision of the ministry 70
withdraw has caused an enormous
political sensation. The conservative
| newspapers are sounding a note of
alarm. They declare that the forces
of extreme radicalism are triumphing
over sane and progressive reform, re-
garding the clerical issue, which was
| raised Saturday, as a mere pretext to
attain Eriand's downfall. They point
out that it is ridiculous to accuse the
man who constructed the separation
law of clericalism, and now that the
Church and State are completely di-
| vorced NJ. BRAND has been merely fol-
| lowing out a general program of zap
peasement"
The vote in the Chamber of Depu-
ties therefore is interpreted as the re,
suit of an intrigue among Brands
| adversaries in his own party, who
have been plotting his overthrow
since the great crisis in the railway
strike and blocking the Premier's
program of arbitration in labor dis
putes in connection with public SER
| vice corporation.
Physically and mentally, by several
years Of uninterrupted labors in Of
fetal life, M. BRAND is sincerely
anxious to retire.
But beyond the matter of his per-
sonal inclination there is the unques-
toned weaknening Of the Premier's
power and of confidence in his min
istry
The socialists, who have never for
given the Premier for modifying the
extreme socialists views which he
championed when he first gained pub
lie life, attacking him persistently.
Recently BRAND was assailed jointly
by the clerica1s and socialists. Last
night he was charged with clerical
ism. The discussion arose through
interpretations blaming the govern
ment for not having applied the laws
against religious bodies with proper
severity.

LIAMS CAUGHT
ANOTHER MEMBER OF WEST GANG
CAPTURED IN:.HOUSE HERE
TODAY
ONLY one MORE LEFT

With information that Wade Will
liams alias George Brown, was IN Will
son and at the home of Addie Will
liams, colOred woman who resides
on Smith street and in a house owned
by Rev. o. L. w. Smith, colored,
Sheriff Sharpe, Deputies Howard
Rowe and w. P. Lester and Police
officer Warren, together with a de-
tachment from the Wilson Light In
fantry, all repaired to the house said
to contain the negro wanted.
The military consisted of Sergeants
Wootten and Dunn and Private John
Blount under command of Lieutenant
w. G. Barnes. These surrounded the
house while the officers entered and
found Williams seated on the side of
the bed. He was promptly put under
arrest and brought to the Court
House, where in the grand jury room
he was taken and questioned by At
torneys F. D. Swindell and 0. P.
Dickerson, Mr. Swindell representing
the State and gathering evidence for
Solicitor Allsbrook while Mr.. Dicker-
son represents Chief of Police Glover,
and as such is also assisting the
State
Williams stated that he came to
Wilson from Norfolk yesterday. Ad-
rnitted he was in Wilson on the day
Of the shooting when the house was
surrounded and Officer Mumford was
killed and Chief Glover was wounded
He denied, however, being in the
house, but tells the same tale as
was in Jim Horne's pool room at the
time of the shooting, which occurred
about three o'clock in the afternoon
Asked to give an account of his
/ movements that day he stated that
he worked for Goodsie Holden, col
ored man of this city until 1880 a. m.
and then went to Goodsie's house and
staid there until dinner, when he
| went to the pool room and was there
| when he heard of the shooting.
There remains only one member OF
! the gang at large, Matthew Mebane
| and the officers are hot on his trail
1t will be remembered that West in
his confession stated Wade Williams
limbo Taylor, Brodie Mebane and two
others were in the house when the
| shooting occurred.
| From the confession Of all the par
ties so far captured il is evident thai
they have all been together since the
shooting and concocted story to tel
| at the trial, so their statements
would not be at variance.
1t is thought Wade Williams came
to Wilson through curiosity to find
out how things were going and in
tended to leave Wilson today. The
| celerity with which the capture was
effected shows the authorities are
right on the track of the notorious
| West gang that made headquarters in
Fayetteville and were preparing tc
| transfer their base of operations to
| Wilson when they we're stopped by
their discovery and the tragic events
surrounding it.

All of this may be changed, how
ever, IL the National Association OF
Theatrical Producing Managers car
ries out a plan now under considera-
ton, to dispense with the orchestra,
tympanist and all. and substitute an
automatic instrument which does the
work OF sixty individual players.
Many tneaters have already been
equipped with orchestral organs,
thereby dispensing with the services
Of some musicians and still retaining
the full orchestral effects, The new
est development of the mechanical
orchestra is an instrument which is
said to be able 20 play anything that
the orchestra Of travelling theatrical
or operatic company ever attempted
The instrument Is portable and en-
tirely practicable for the use Of a
travelling organization playing one
night stands
This sounds very much as If the
familiar theater orchestra. with its
leader, violins, reeds and brass, is
doomed. But of all the players the
hard-working tympanist will be miss
ed the most.
