P. N. HUNT INSTANTLY KILLED In
ACCIDENT.
LOCAL CARPENTER WAS IN
CAR STRUCK BY INCOMING
TRAIN-OTHERS JUMPED =

lRAIFN--Ol 1ERS JCJMPED
Pal Miller Hunt, well known
carpenter and highly respected citi-
zen of this city, was instantly killed
yesterday morning at $40 o'clock
when eastbound passenger train No.
203. running from Wilkesboro to
Greensboro, struck the automobile
in which the deceased was, riding,
at the crossing of the main line of
the Southern railway at the Central
Carolina fair grounds a few miles
west of the city.
The deceased was thrown from
the car and received a fatal blow
near the base of the skull, inflicted
when the locomotive crashed into
the machine, which brought death.
Four other men who were also rid
ing in the car saw the train and
jumped in time to escape injury.
The automobile was completely de-
molished, being scattered for mum
Der of yards up the track.
r. H. Stanford, who was at the
steering wheel, and C. E. Brewer
were in the front seat and Ben Jen-
nings, Lawson Henderson and Mr..
Hunt were in the rear seat. Mr..
Hunt was sitting between Mr.. Jen-
nings and Mr.. Henderson, and this
fact is said to have been the cause
of the"failure of Mr.. Hunt to get
out of the car, he having to wait
until the other men jumped out. 1t
is said that he was in the act of
jumping when the tragedy occurred.
All five passengers Of the ill-fated
car were carpenters and were en-
route to the Cobb estate, several
miles southwest of the city, to begin
the days work on a building which
is being constructed there. Several
minutes prior to the accident the
four surviving members of the party
had gone to the home of the deceas-
ed on Walker avenue extension, only
a few hundred yards from the scene,
and got Mr.. Hunt and started on
their daily journey.

PLANS FOR $5o, 900 CITY HALL.

At the citizens mass meeting in
the auditorium on Friday evening
last, Mayor Fate outlined the plans
proposed by the city council for the
erection ola $50, 900 city hall with
a city market on the ground floor,
cry offices on the first floor, and an
auditorium on the top story. Some
suggested that SIS 900 should be
expended for such a building. The
storm which passed over town at
the hour of meeting prevented a
representative crowd from assemb-
ling, and another meeting was called
tor this evening. Mayor Tate took
the occasion at the meeting to dis
pute pnfounded rumors concerning
his desire to run for governor, nail
ing all such reports as falsehoods,
and asserting in unmistakab!e Ian
glage that he would not have the
office if he knew he could get it.

Rivalry Between Austria and

national Entanglements-
Prince Prepares to Flee
REBELS THOUGHT LIKELY
TO SACK CAPITAL.
Only Presence of Foreign Troops
Will Restrain Mohammedan
Besiegers

VIENNA. June 16.--Heavy fghting
at Durazzo today with the Mussulman
rebels within half mile OF the palace
OF Prince William was reported In
special dispatches TO Vienna from the
Albanian capital. These dispatches
said that Prince william. fearing ulti-
mate defeat OF his forces, had made
all preparations to board ship OF
the International fleet lying of the
city and leave his principality TO its
fate.
II was barely daylight today when
the insurgents attacked. Leading his
men, Prince William met the attack
at the neck OF land which forms Dur
azEo's landward side, cutting of the
peninsula on which the city stands
from the besieging force. Hand-to-
hand fighting at the ramparts fol-
lowed. The attacks OF the Mussul-
men were desperate.
There is believed TO be grave dan
ger of international complications in
case the princes forces are finally
overcome and the 27,000 rebels enter
the city. Pillage and massacre are
probable. Only the bayonets OF the
DlueJacketS from the International
feet who are on guard at the lega-
tions will stand between the victo-
rtous Mussulmen and the sack of the
city There is grave doubt II even
the presence Of the bluejackets will
prevent excesses.
Rivalry between Austrian and Ital-
ian troops is also considered a dan
ger point Since the accession OF the
Prince OF Wied TO the Albanian
throne by mandate OF the powers,
Italy and Austria have been contend
ing for the post OF principal suzerain
OF Albania. To date there has been
no open clash, but in the turmoil OF
the city's fall-if II does fall-there
is believed to be danger of clash
between the forces OF the two coun-
tries which might lead to serious re-
suits.
