FACES CRISIS
GIoomiest Week End in His
tory of United Kingdom
Is Endured
WORKING FAMILIES STARvE
Captains of Steam Trawlers Dis
tribute Ships Stores Among
the Hungry.

(By Special Leased Wire to New MeXican)
London, March 23.-England is
spending one of the gloomiest week
ends in her history. In every town,
village and hamlet throughout the
country where skilled workmen usu'
ally are engaged in the great indus
tries. unemployment is on the in
crease and the families of the work
ers who have been rendered idle by
the strike of million coal miners
are, in many cases, facing starya-
ton.
Fires Are Drawn.
The cotton mills AT Nelson. Bolton
and other centers in Lancanshire. are
closing rapidly or are running on half
time. Foundries everywhere have
drawn their fires and this week end
j large number of factories and work
shops in the southern countries OF
England heretofore not affected have
paid off their men.
4,cOo Families INDECENT.
The steamer trawlers at Hull. like
those of Grimsby and other fishing
ports, remain in the harbOr and their
shippers are distributing their stores
among the hungry women and chill
dren whose husbands and fathers are
no longer able to provide them with
food In Hanley, one of the most
prosperous towns of the country, 1000
families, representing one-third of the
population, are receiving assistance
from the public funds.
All this unemployment means a tre-
nendous drain on the funds of the
trades unions. Thus far, the miners
alone have received $2,900,0O0 in
strike pay and today it is estimated
that 100000 was paid out OF
work benefit by other unions.

TOUCHING TRIBUTE IS PAID
With All Pomp and Solemnity a
Mighty Nation Lays Its Heroes
to Rest.

(By Special Leased Wire to New MeXican)
Washington, D. c., March 23.-With
all the pomp and solemnity that
mighty nation can pay its heroes of
war, the last of the dead of the Maine
were laid away today in Arlington
cemetery. Seldom in the history of
this country has there been planned a
higher tribute to the memory of any
man or men than that for the sixty
four dead of the Maine. Government
business in Washington was practical
i suspended by executive order. Pres
ident Taft, most of the members OF
his cabinet, the highest officers of the
army, the navy and the marine corps,
officials of the departments and the
representatives of many foreign pow
ers participated in the exercises. Over
the government buildings flags hung
at half mast, while Congress adjourned
for the day. The booming OF minute
guns and the tramp Of sOldiery added
the touch of military pomp and cir
cumstance.
A Great Nation Mourns.
Beginning with the removal OF the
dead from the T. S. S. Birmingham,
which brought them up from Havana.
and ending with the firing of three
volIeys of musketry Of the new-made
graves across the Potomac, the cere-
monies were designed to show all hon
or and respect to the martyrs OF the
doomed battleship. The speakers who
faced the crowd in the plaza behind
the navy buildings, were only three
President Taft, Father Chidwick, chap
lain of the Maine when the explosion
of February Is. 1898, sent her to the
bottom, and Chaplain Bayard, L. S. n.
The Marine band, the show band OF
Washington, was chosen to give the
solemn music for the dead and an army
battery stationed near the Washing
ton monument was selected to fire the
q gun salute as the ceremonies at
the navy building ended and the quiet
march to Arlington was begun.
Over the graves in Arlington, the
simple exercises included burial serv
ices by Chaplain Bayard and Father
| Chidwick With the firing of thret
volleys of musketry by company Of
marines, national salute of q guns

and the sounding of the plaintive cal
of taps, the dead We're given to the

ADJUSTMENTS.


Special arrangements with the
management of the Academy of Mus
ic will enable the play-goers of thfs
city TO see one of the greatest dramas
known to English literature presented
by company OF players nearly all Of
whose names customarily figure an
the pre-eminent and exclusive stars
OF any cast in which they appear. A
combination OF fortunate circum-
stances made possible the presenta-
ton in a single company OF r. ID.
MacLean, Charles B. Hanford, Odette
Tyler, and Marie Drofnah. In the ulav
which the schedule of their brief and
rapid tour provides for In this city.
each of these distinguished dramatic
artists VIII be seen in characterize
ttons commanding their highest pow
ers and presenting most interesting
contrast. In Othello which will be
given with a superb equipment of
costuming and scenery at the per-
Torrance, Mr.. MacLean will be seen
in the title role-Mr. Hanford as
Iago, Miss Tyler as Desdemona, and
Miss Drofnah as Emilia. Mr.. VIII
liam Thorne, an actor of well-known
ability will round out the cast as
Cassie. The stage mountings required
for an enterprise of this extraordinary
magnitude are necessarily beautiful
and complete to a degree far beyond
ordinary standards. Yet matters of
scenery and costuming are mentioned
in connection with a presentation Of
this exceptional character only as in
cidental considerations. Shakespeare
has become as much a favorite with
the public at large as he has been
among students and the assemblages
to see this production on Thursday
night, November 14th, will, judging
from all present indications, be re-
markable both for members and per-
sonality.

G. I'll. Dortch & Brother Bring Suit
Against ex-Mayor Wynne.

Gavin H. Dortch & Brother, real
estate, rental and insurance agents of
this city, has brought suit in Wake
Superior Court against Mr.. j. S..
Wynne, ex-mayor of Raleigh, for So
600 damages on the charge of viola
ton of contract. The Dortch Broth
ers' Company ten months ago pur-
chased the rental business of the Raj
eigh Real Estate and Trust Company,
of which Mr.. Wynee was vice-presi-
dent, and the terms of the deal bound
Mr.. Wynne's company to stay out of
those lines of business sold to Dortch
Brothers for ten years. Now the
Home Real Estate and Investment
Company is formed with Mr.. Wynne
as one of the stockholders, and is
competing with Dortch & Brother, it
is alleged in the complaint.

Women Not Freeholders i'm This Case.

The Supreme Court holds women
are not freeholders in the sense of
having to be included in getting 25
per cent of the freeholders of dis
trict in petitioning for special tax
election for schools. The Supreme
Court has just made this ruling in the
case from Wake Forest Township,
this county, entitled Gill VS.. Wake
Commissioners. The validity of the
special tax election was questioned
on the ground that If women free
holders were counted there was not
25 per cent of the freeholders of the
district represented in the petition
for the election and it was, therefore,
invalid. Justice Walker writes the
opinion for the majority of the court
with Justice Hoke and Allen concur
ring and Chief Justice Clark and JUS
tice Brown dissent.
