COMMIT DOUBLE CRIME.
Murder and Assault is Charged to
Two Negroes Near Charlotte.

Charlotte, N. c., Nov. 1.-TWO un-
identified negroes early tonight held
up an automobile party of two young
men and two girls, white, on the high
way from Gastonia, N. c., killed one
of the young men, John Ford, of Lin
colnton, N. c., dragged the girls

ing to telephone messages to the
Charlotte police Department.
Late tonight Charlotte police Of
ficers, with a posse of officers and
armed citizens of castor county were
securing the countryside in search of
the negroes, who we're believed to
have made their escape on passing
freight train. Feeling was said to be
intense.
The two young women were taken
to a Gastonia hospital, where it was
said late tonight their condition is
serious. Their homes are in Gasto-
MIA. The two young men, John Ford
and Ransom Killian, both Of Lincoln
ton, were said to be unarmed when
attacked by the negroes. Killian was
not injured. Ford was shot and kill

TENNESSEE STATE

Senate and Over 2S5 in
The House.
Gets Some of That.

Memphis, Tenn, Nov 4.-With but
two counties and less than fifty scat
tered precincts missing out of the
entire state, returns tabulated to-
night by the Commercial Appeal give
Harding a majority over Cox of g.
GIT, and ALI Taylor, Republican can
didate for governor, lead of 3S,497
over A. H. Roberts, his Democratic
opponent.
The totals as tabulated up to 8
o'clock tonight as as follows:
Cox, 1912; Harding, 199,759.
For governor: Roberts, 160,917;
Taylor, 199,114.
The missing counties, Marion and
Bledsoe, are in the eastern part of
the state and normally give Repub-
lican majority of about 500 On their
combined vote
Gain One Congressman.
On the strength of the returns re-
ceived by the Commercial Appeal the
Republicans have gained one and
probably two congressman from the
state. Judge John A. Moon, of Chat
-tanooga, was defeated by Joe Brown
in the third district by about 5000
votes. In the eighth, Capt, Gordon
Browning has apparently been de-
feated by Lon R. Scott. The race in
the fourth district is close, but Cor
dell Hull has safe lead which can
not be overcome by the total of miss
ing precincts.
The Republican victory for the
presidential ticket in the state is the
first time since 1858, and the total
vote will probably be about 100000,
the vomen's vote in the eastern part
of the state having been much heaV-
ier than expected.
