Representative Vinson. Democrat. Of
Kentucky objected. and when Tread

letter. the Kentuckian accused him Of
"the cheapest kind of politics"
Treadway protested that there was
no need to inject personalities into
the hearing. Chairman Doughton
raped his gavel and remarked that
there aren't going TO be any stump

Representative Cooper. Democrat. Of
Tennessee, moved that the committee
proceed with the first witness, and
the motion carried.

While developments in the interna-

generally discussed as a constructive
factor in the long run. this view was
coupled with feeling that there might
be more or less irregularity until parity
has been definitely established.
The opening advance was followed
by partial reaction under hedging and
scattered selling. Offerings we're quite
readily absorbed with some buying re-
ported here through houses with
French and other continental connec-
tions. The market held fairly steady
at the end of the first half hour with
December selling around 1892 and

Shooting of Lincoln
Recalled by Veteran
Capt. S. A. Ashe Remembers
Tuesday as list Anniversary
of Assassination Attempt

RALEIGH, April 22.-Captain
Samuel A. Ashe, almost sole Raleigh
survivor among hte active nongena-
rians of the Confederacy, remember
ed today as the list anniversary of
the shooting of President Abraham
Lincoln.
Captain Ashe, who has written the
history of the war and left unwrit-
ten enough material to make many
volumes, has very vivid recollec-
ton of the Lincoln assassination. The
state of national mind was recently
shown in a movie, but the captain
found it even worse than the pic
lures portrayed. The clerk of the
federal court regarded the murder
of Lincoln a national calamity but
for Mr.. Lincoln himself the captain
has anything else than a reverence.
The Raleigh historian regards the
war record of the President a pretty
black page in national life.
But killing the President did not
help the south rather, according to
Mr.. Ashe, did it add flame to an ex-
isting fury. To hear Captain Ashe
recount the violences of that period
II years ago quite conveys the lis
tener into another world. It is one
in which the near-centenarian does
not wish to live again.
Ashe county was named for Cap
tain Ashes grandfather Gov. Samuel

Veterans to Get
Bonds at Early Date
Two Million, Seven Hundred
Thousand Have Filed
Applications

Senator Byrns, of South Carolina,
states that two million, seven hum
dred thousand veterans have filed
their applications for bonus bonds.
The veterans administration has
forwarded to the Treasury depart
ment one-quarter of a million GER
tif1cates showing the amounts due to
veterans and in the opinion of Cen
eral Hines, certificates for all those
applications have been received will
be forwarded to the Treasury de-
partment by June Is.
The Senator learned from the
Treasury department that the bonds
are now being printed with the
names of the veterans upon them.
At the same time checks are being
drawn for these veterans for the odd
amounts where such amounts are
due, and it is the plan of the Treas
ury department to have these checks
sent to the veterans at the time the
bonds are mailed. With the progress
that has been made, Senator Byrnes
states that it now seems probable
that by June Is considerable num-
Der of these bonds will be ready for
delivery and that all of the veterans
who have now filed their applica-
tons will receive their bonds earlier
than was originally anticipated.
