INSPECTION TRIP.
Automobiles Needed For The Trip
Over The Fox Greek
Route Tomorrow.

In order that the railroad Off
Gals may be properly Impressed
with the Importance of the propos-
ed Fox Creek railroad, it is neces-
sary that the business people of
Cambridge show their interest by
accompanying the officials on the
trip. To do this, however. it is
necessary to have automobiles, and
those of our citizens who are willing
to help this cause along to the ex-
tent of using their machines for the
purpose of carrying members of the
party, are. requested to notify Mr..
Vernon s. Bradley, Secretary of
the Board of Trade, to that effect.
1t is impossible to calculate the
benefits that will arise from the
construction of this line, SO let ev-
eryone help as much as they can.

DAVIS NOT GUILTY.
Jury Acquits Benz. Davis, Charged
With Murder of Mrs. Ger
trllde Rayne.

The trial of Benjamin Davis, of
Wicomico county, who was charged
with having killed Mrs. Gertrude
Rayne, at her home near Powells-
vile, Wicomico county, last No
vember, and then burning the dwell
ing for the purpose of concealing
the crime, was completed at the
Court yesterday evening, at about a
quarter to twelve o'clock, and the
jury, after being out about forty
minutes, brought in verdict of not
guilty.
The case was started Tuesday ev-
ening, and was conducted by States
Attorneys George w. Bell, of WI
comico county, and v. Calvin Trice,
Of this county, for the State, and
Messrs. Joseph Bailey, of Wicom1co;
Miles & Myers, of Princess Anne,
and Emerson C. Harrington. of this
city, for the defense.
The defense claimed that the evil
dence in the case, all of which was
circumstantial, pointed more DELHI
erately at Lemuel Rayne, the hus-
band o. the murdered woman. This
claim was largely based upon the
fact that Rayne and his wife had
quarreled a few days before the
crime, and that she had sworn out
writ against him, charging him
with having murderously assaulted
her, and further that Rayne had ex-
pressed himself on the day prior to
the murder in terms of great bitter
ness against his wife.
The case for the State was very
ably handled by States Attorney
Trice, but was deemed by nearly.
everyone to be very weak, inasmuch
as evidence was lacking to show any
reason why the accused man should
harbor any i'll feeling toward the
unfortunate victim of the crime,
while on the other hand, there
seemed to be an abundance of tes-I
timony to show that they were on
the most friendly terms. e
The case for the State was open
ed Tuesday night by States Attor-.
rey Bell. The evidence in the case
was concluded late yesterday after
noon, and the arguments were star.
ted about half-past seven o'clock
last night by States Attorney Bell,
who was followed by Messrs. Bai-'
ley, Harrington and Miles for the
defendant States Attorney Trice.
closed the case for the State, and
as stated above, after celebrating
about forty minutes, the jury brou-i
ght in a verdict of not guilty.
The jury was composed of the fol-
lowing gentlemen: Messrs. M. Ed
ward Gore, foreman; w. T. Willis,
w. H. Davidson, Jr., Chas. c. Dali,
o. R. C. Gore, William Hurley, Sam
uel E. LeCompte, A. Bowdle Robin
son, Ionic Slacum, Jas. r. Jones,
