SPORTING NOTES

Local opinion on the outcome of the worlds series is pretty well divided with perhaps small odds on the Reds to win out.
 Augie Rather, who won laurels on the battlefields of France and in the ring at the Kings Tournament last December, has been matched to meet Mike ODowd, the middleweight cham pion. in the feature eight round bout at the Armory A. A. in Jersey City next Tuesday night. Since Rather re- turned from the war he has been sub jecting himself to strenuous training, and he will be in tip top condition for the contest with the title holder.
 At the Cambria A. C. in Philadelphia next Friday night Billy Kramer will tackle Joe Borrell in the main six round contest. Kramer is managed by Willus Britt, who after the bout with BorrelI will bring his protege to New Jersey for the purpose of matching him with some of the leading middle Weig ghtS in that state. Kramer has fought Mike O'Dowd twice and he has also met Harry Greb, Mike Gibbons and Jack McCarron.

ENGINEER KILLED;
FIVE OTHERS HURT

Wadesboro, May 2.-Engineer r.
B. Hill, of Hamlet, was killed and
five others were injured, one Sc
riously, at $3.50 o'clock tonight when
Seaboard Air Line passenger train
No. 13, from Wilmington to Char
lotte, was wrecked at Lilesville, five
miles east of this place. The in
jured are Ernest Hammond, colored
porter; L. G. Mimms, express mes
senger, and two others whose il ju-
ries are slight. A spreading rail is
believed to have been the cause of
the derailment.
The injured were rushed to hos
pitals as soon as a relief train was
made up at the ballast pit near here.
Hammond, Mimms and Bailey were
taken to Hamlet, while the other two
injured were brought to this city.
The engine turned over and all the
remainder of the train left the track,
except the Pullman. None of the
passengers were injured. All OF
| them, however, assisted the injured
/ until the arrival of physicians.
The train was running at the us
ual speed when, according to the
| fireman, Engineer Hill observed an
| obstacle on the track. He applied
| the emergency brakes at once and
| the sudden pressure of the brakes
it is believed, produced a spreading
of the rails.
Physicians from this place anG
| Hamlet were called to the scene OF
| the wreck and rendered first aid
treatment before sending the in
| jured to hospitals. Drs. Terry
/ James and Kinsman accompanied
| three of the Injured men back tc

NEGRO ACQUITTED
OF MURDER CHARGE

Rocky Mount, May 2.-The jury
in the case of Daniel Elkinson, the
negro charged with the mmurder of
Charles J. Devine, required about
not guilty yesterday afternoon.
Judge Bond began his charge at 2
p. M, and talked to the jury until 3
O'Clock. The twelve men then re-
tired and before 3:15 they returned
and announced they had found FL
kinson not guilty of the crime.
The trial of the Elkinson case be-
gan Tuesday morning, and contin-
ued for two days. Messrs. T. T.
Thorne and R. G. Allsbrook handled
the case for the State and Messrs.
John w. Hester, of Oxford, and
Finch and Vaughan, of Nashville,
were attorneys for the negro.
The defense built up a strong al
ibi which seems to have proven a
success with the jury. A number OF
| witnesses were put on the stand
who testified Elkinson was home on
the night of the shooting, and also
he was at home on the Sunday night
following.
The chief strength in the States
case was the testimony of Officer c.
S. Henry who was shot by the negro
who killed young Devine who posi-
lively identified ElkinsoR as the ne
gro who did the shooting. The
| tragedy occurred when Officer Hen.
| ry was attempting to arrest a col
ored man for carrying concealed
weapon, and young Devine came tC
his death when he attempted to an.
swer Officer Henry's appeal to hell
| in effecting the negroes arrest.
The local department is at loss
to know what procedure to take
Unless by some chance the guilty
party comes forward or is discov
cred, administering justice to the
man who killed the young man ant
shot the officer will seem remote.
Elkinson was arrested by Office
iJ. o. Dudley after a clever piece Of
detective work. Officer Dudley
STORY was also strong point in the
States case. The defense's alibi

turn of the entire American Exped-
itionary forces by September. Be-
cause of this, General March, Chief
of Staff is making every effort to
speed up the rehabilitation of
this country.
An official announcement issued
today as to the accumulation of
surplus clothing for the troops
stated that the estimates were
based on troop withdrawal to be
completed in September" The state
ment also said that eff an army of
occupation is maintained after Sep
tember, a portion OF this surplus
will be needed"
This computati.n was taken to
reflect. extctlyy the present infor-
nation of the department as to fu-
ture troop movements.
+ The September date represents
estimate by embarkation officials
as to the maximum speed in with
drawaI the entire force in Europe,
including the troops holding the
Coblenz Bridgehe i'd sector on the
Rhine. If anything, officers, antici-
pate that the movement will be
accelerated rather than retarded .
The schedule has been exceeded
recently and in Increasing measure
from week to week. With an
indicated monthly movement of
100000 men, the best predictions
of General March and his aides bid
fair, it was said to be more than
realized.
