One of tho first conferences held to-

LOCAL BANK STOCKS

During the war period the banks of
Washington have enjoyed wonderful
prosperity, that is il large deposits
and a steady good demand for money
are the necessary essentials.
Following a short period OF depreS-

was it reduced when this nation en-

to let it roll in.
During the same period they have
given large service to the government

SOLICITOR Is COLLECTING
EVIDENCE FOR THE HEARING

Morganton. N. c., Feb. $50
licitor Huffman stated that the state
would not be ready for preliminary
hearing before Monday, and possi-
bly, not before Tuesday, several
witnesses from out of the country
having not yet been located and
their testimony is considered very
essential to the states evidence.
The solicitor has spent a busy day
examining witnesses and collecting
facts to be used in the preliminary
hearing. In the meantime the Pitts
boys remain in jail.
Officers brought to Morganton
five .38 steel balls which were taken
from the clothing of the murdered
man and the coroner thought that
number remained in the body.
His report shows that 10 shots
were fired at the Glen Alpine ply
sician, nine going in through the
back.
The report is that five shots we're
fired after the victim fell dead, which
fact. IL established, will show the
affair to be most cold blooded mur-
der ever committed in this section.
So near were the murderers to
DR.. Tennessee that his clothing was
badly burned and the body showed
powder burns.
