Henry Clough, of New York and
Norlina. was ordered held for the
next criminal term of Vance Superior
Court on charge of rape when
given a preliminary nearing in county
court this morning before Recorder
r. E. Clements.
Mrs. G. F. Perkins and Sylvia Swan,
both of Petersburg, Va, were the pro-
scouting witnesses.
Deputy Sheriff E. A. Cottrell and
Policeman w. M. Reid conducted the
investigation in the case.
The alleged rape was said to have
taken place last night about 11:3O
o'clock near Zeb Vance high school
as the women were enrOute from Nor
lima to Raleigh.
Another man, whose name was not
learned, left Clough and the women,
after asking Clough to desist in his
actions, officers here said.
Cottrell and Reid accompanied the
women to Norlina during the early
morning, and there the women iden-
titled the man in the car. Sheriff w.
J. Pinnell arrested Clough about 4
o'clock this morning as he slept in
the place he was staying at Norlina.
Clough was alleged to have dragged
the Swan girl from the automobile in
to a nearby wood, threatened her with
death and assaulted and raped her.
Mrs. Perkins was said to have fled the
scene to seek aid, and called officers
from a nearby telephone. Officers Cot
trell and Reid found the women alone
on the highway.
The women are held under 5000
bonds for their appearance as wit
nesses in the case.

Figuring that the sales tax has been

that there were nearly twice as many

such thing was likely for the reason
that most of the beverage tax rev.
enue comes from the levy of one cent

there was no increase over last year.
The receipts from the sale of hard
LIQUOR should, Of colIEse, be more than
doubled this year over last, Mr.. Moore
agrees. At present a breakdown OF
the total beverage tax receipts into
it's component parts beer, liquor and
wine taxes-is unavailable and as
result it is impossible to tell just how
the LIQUOR tax is stacking up with ex-
pectations.

week as sales for the Henderson mar

for the first time this season. Aver
ages are we'll above the most optim-
istic expectations of market boosters
r. w. Mcfarland, sales supervisor
for the Henderson market, reported
season sales through Friday of f.
OO8.666 pounds, which sold for $1,124,
1895 at an average of $28.05 per hun
bred. He reported the past week
sales at 2,O35,674 pounds, selling for
$593, 325.42 at an average of $29.15 per
hundred pounds, and said Fridays
sale, second largest of the season, was
for 527,81O pounds, bringing $158,O56.-

Fridays sale had approximately the

Seasons sales so far are two cents
per pound ahead of the figure at the
end of the second week last year, and
poundage is nearly three quarters of
a million pounds ahead. Money paid
to date is more than a quarter mil

Some tobacco men look for record
large offerings for the season so far
next Monday. All warehouse floors
were cleared Friday and every house
was ready to accommodate the ire

large quantities of leaf ready for mar

Farmers from more than score OF
counties are selling on the Henderson
market, and much leaf is coming IN
from across the State line in Virginia.
Everywhere there is general satisfac-
ton with prices being paid for the
leaf
AS sales supervisor, Mr.. Mcfarland
said he had teen asked as to what IN
his opinion would be the result of the
Sino-Japanese war on tobacco prices.
His answer was that all indications
pointed to an increased demand, and
he thought the bullying price averages
now being made throughout the belt
were the result, at least i'll part, OF
the Far East situation. He said for
eign buyers were as eager as domes-
tic companies for the leaf, and spirited
competition had resulted, hiking the

G. w. ADAMS QUITS
COUNTY TAX POST
Has Served as Back Tax Collector
Since Ladt Winter;
Dorsey In

G. w. Adams, who for many years
was county accountant for Vance
county, and since last winter has been
"back tax" collector, relinquished the
duties of the latter office last Thurs
day night at the end of the month
and a quarter, and severed his con-
nection with the county. On next
Monday, F. M. Dorsey becomes county
tax collector as the sheriff is relieved
of all responsibility for taxes, which
has been function Of his office ever
since Vance has been county.
Mr.. Dorsey was elected to the new
ly-created office by the Board of
County Commissioners month ago,
and has given up his private employ
ment to accept the new work starting
Monday, when the 1887 tax books will
be turned over for him to collect. He
will have office space, it was under
stood today, in the sheriff's office, but
his work will be entirely separate
from that of the sheriff.
An auditor was here today check
ing Mr.. Adams out and going over his
records for a final accounting. Mr..
Adams was not an applicant for the
office of tax collector. He said there
was much dissatisfaction among de-
linquents upon whom he had worked
because of the tremendous fee and
penalty items assessed against those
with accountants back of 1896. He
related one incident of tax claim of
81 cents where penalties and fees ran
the total above $25, and said the in
dividual who owed the 81 cents had to
sell cow to get money to pay the
claim.
