No Criminal
Cases From

Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, April 14.-Next week S
Supreme Court calendar for oral
argument is featured by the fact
that among the dozen cases from
the fourteenth district (Meclllen-
burg and Gaston) there is hot even
one criminal case listed.
Veteran court attaches say that
for any district not to have a State
case up on appeal is out Of the ordi-
nary and that for the fourteenth to
show nothing but civil causes is
virtually unprecedented.
Among prominent cases is that Of
Mozelle Steele VS. Keith M. Beatty
and Charlie HaWortl, an action
featured in the lower court by
charges of attempted blackmail and
extortion against Charlotte's Detec-
tive Chief Frank Littlejohn and
United States Marshal for the West
ern District Charles R. Price.
Testifying in the cause, a very
sordid and unsavory mess involving
alleged seduction, and an attempted
abortion, Beatty said that Littlejohr
and Price told him they would set
tie the case if he would give them
$4,000. Thereafter the Court, oil
its own motion, summoned both Of
ficers and heard their testimony in
denial.
In the lower court plaintiff secur-
ed a judgment for $1,750 and the
defendants have appealed, alleging
numerous errors.
In another case the perennial prob
lem Of governmental operations Of
power lines is involved. c. o. Ken
nerly, as administrator for Aaron A.
Willis sued the Town of Dallas for
Willis death from walking against
an electric line allegedly owned by
the town and operated outside its
corporate limits.
Paradoxically, it is the town which
asserts its impotence to operate the
utility outside its limits. Defendant
demurred on the grounds that il
doesn't have authority to operate
the line. The demurrer was over
ruled in the court below.

Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,


NEW YORK, Feb. IA steep two

the stock markets strength and it
fell back pace or two today be-
fore halting for a breathing spell.
An early selling furry took as
much as or 2 points out of the
previous advances of many shares,
but the market stiffened when Offer
ings dWindled. Moderate losses we're
the rule near the fourth hour, with
a few showing fractional advances.
Transactions were less than half
the turnover in the preceding ses-
sion as traders withdrew to the side
lines to watch developments.
Brokers leaned to the view the
setback could be ascribed chiefly to
the markets loss of technical
strength as result of short cover
ing the last two days. At the same
time, further study of the foreign
situation convinced some analysts
war dangers still were great in Eu-
rope, but many held hopes the
major powers would get around the
table for settlement of the colonial
question after the Spanish conflict
ends.
Conspicuous in the setback-as
they had been on the rally-were

tors, Union Carbide, Montgomery

In January Disclose
Notable Advance
Months Best Record,
With One Exception,
Since 1882 Report
BY EDWARD c. STONE.

Bank clearings in the Capital in
January made the best showing of
any January since 1882. with the
exception Of 1897, according to
George H Bright, manager of the
Washington Clearing House Asso-
citation.
January Cancelled checks totaled
500 6,424 ,506.24 in comparison with
S93,436 1887 in January, 1898, or
an increase in the first month of
1889 of S2,988 ,38775. The higher
total in January, 1887, was $780,
562,OS388
The gain of nearly S3,O00,000 in
January, 1899, over January, 1888, is
considered much more healthy than
a higher figure would have been.
Bankers consider that sharp changes
in bank clearings are not so con-
ducive to business soundness as are
moderate changes which are more
likely to be held.
The low point in January clearingS
In Washington in the past 10 years
was in 1884 when the total amounted
to S55,737,297. Todays figure of
more than S95,000,0O0 for January
reveals lot of business progress
in the tive-year period.

upward trend at times, trading VOL
ume diminished after yesterdays

Early gains of as much as y
cent registered the markets re-
action to the higher tendency at
Liverpool. but buying was limited
and prices bobbed up and down
nervously much of the time. Failure
of the Southwest to receive sub
stantial moisture encouraged some
buying, although precipitation was
reported in many sections of the
wheat belt. Fair weather was fore
cast for most of the Southwest and
dust was reported blowing at scat
tered points.
Liverpool advanced fractionally,
partly because of short covering,
and although American offers were
cheaper no export business was
confirmed. No substantial sales of
U. S. wheat abroad have been
reported for some time. although
exporting of grains sold some time
ago is continuing. Rumors from
Minneapolis suggested the possibil-
ity that Italy might be negotiating
for approximately 100000 bushels
of Northwest durum.
Flour sales improved substan-

and rye were slightly higher.
