if TRY BBEESE THE ATLANTA GEOKCJIAX, HEARST CARTOONS IN THE NEW YORK CAMPAIGN Famous North Carolina Case Will Probably Be Called at Asheville. gwtisl to The fieorflan. Greensboro, X. C„ Nov. S.-rGener- p11y it was supposed that the “Breeee rate," which was probably the longest and hardest fought Indictment ever tried In the Federal courts of this state, „„ dosed, but it seems that It will be thrashed over again. In July, 1897. the Hrst National Bank of Asheville failed, and great havoc was wrought In all that section, depositors losing large sums of money. Breese, the president. Lawrence Pul liam, the cashier, and Joseph Dicker- ,Jin, one of the directors, were indicted for embezzlement and conspiracy to defraud, the sum named being >250,000. Pulliam escaped and after being absent several years, voluntarily returned, and after a sensational trial was convicted and sent to the Atlanta penitentiary, and Is now serving sentence, or has completed his term. Major IV. E. Breese, the president, was tried three times. In two trials the Jury failed to agree. In the third trial a conviction was had. Each of these trials occupied weeks of time, and on account of. alleged local preju dice against the defendant, the case a as removed from Asheville to Char lotte. Breese took an appeal to the circuit court of appeals and this court declared lie was Illegally convlctod, be cause one of the grand Jurors who found the bill of Indictment had not paid Ills taxes and Breese was dis charged from custody, a free man, be cause between the time of finding the bill of Indictment In 1897 and the ren dition of the Judgment on appeal the statute had barred any further linding of a bill of indictment. The bill of indictment which the United States court declared was defective and under which Breese was three times tried and finally convicted was a bill found by a grand Jury at the November term, 1897, of the United States court at Asheville. Compromise Rumored. An examination of the docket .of the 1'nlted States court held In Greensboro In October, 1897. shows that at that term the grand jury found a true bill against IV. E. Breese, president of the First National Bank of Asheville, for the alleged wrecking of. the bank In July. 1897. The amount he Is charged with embezzling Is >225.000. The rec ord further shows that J. M. Allen was foreman of the Greensboro grand Jury which found this bill. It was on this bill that Breese was arrested. It now seems that another bill was found at the November term at Asheville; that Breese was tried under this and that the October bill Is still good. An effort to reach District Attorney Holton and get Information on this new development has been Ineffectual. Judge Bynum, who prosecuted the case as a special employee of the govern ment for two trials, when asked about It, was absolutely non-committal, say ing he knew nothing of tils new phnse of the case. Judge Boyd declined to be inter viewed cm the subject. But the clerk 1 docket shows that a bill was found at the October term and 'the' case was transferred to the Asheville docket for THE WALL 8TREET BABY SHOW—By T. E. Powers. MONEY IS IN HAND FOR MARKET EXCHANGE Committee Has $2,- 500 Subscribed With More to Come. BOARD OF TRADE IS WELL INDORSED Chamber of Commerce Will Probably Move Quar ters Up Town. trial. That Home further development will result at the term of Federal court in Asheville next week, showing thut the Breese cape is not settled,” Is among the probabilities. Nams of Bank Changed.

A fund of $2,500 was reported actual ly In hund at the meeting of promt nent citizens held Friday afternoon ln the office of C. C. Hanson for the pur pose of organizing aft Atlanta Board of Trade. This amount practically guarantees the organization of the ex change about January 1. Nearly all of the committees appoint ed at the Inst meeting to make a can vass of the different branches of trade for stock ln the exchange were present, and the chairmen made favorable re ports In every Instance. The banks of the city nnd several out-of-town cot ton men are yet to be heard from, and these will ln all probability subscribe tho remaining sum necessary. The Board of Trade for 1907 will bo merely an experiment, and It has been estimated that about $4,600 will be actually ln Imnd before the exchange can be organized. Tho Chamber of Commerce Is to have control of the Board of Trade, and If the move is suc cessful new and more adequate quar ters will he secured for both commer cial organizations. During the general discussion In the informal meeting Friday afternoon it was decided to encourage the general public to participate in the Board of Trade and Invite the membership of every citizen who was a member of the rhamber of Commerce. Such members would be allowed one share, the non resident members would be considered ns associate members. It was the sense of the meeting that the Board of Trade was to be ninde a place where the business men of the city could meet and spend a social hour to the benefit of the business and commercial interests. A location will probably be necured where noon lunch can be served anil tho quarters made as attractive as possible. The details of the organization will ho discussed at the meeting to be held at the same place next Friday afternoon at o'clock.

HARD TO SEE Even When the Facte About Cofi'te Art Plain. New York, Nov. 3.—Democratic lead ers make no secret of their agitation over the fact that tho Independence Leaguers are doing everything In their power to have the followers of Hearst cast their ballots under the emblem of the Independence League Instead of under the emblem of the Democratic party. Tho object of this Is to obtain, If possible, the -registration and elec tion day patronage for the Hearst or ganisation Instead of for the regular party at the next election. In these closing days of the cam paign It becomes more and more ap parent that Hearst has shoved the reg ular Democratic party Into the back ground and that he Is. together with Ids managers and speakers, exploiting the Independence Leaguo, and relegat ing the regular party farther and far ther to the rear. JTho Democratic state headquarters In the Victoria hotel are as dead as the catacoinbe of Egypt, and William J.* Conners, the state chair man, has few of his stenographers and his employees to keep him company. League Men Are Busy. Up at the Gllsey house, where the Independence League has Its headquar ters. an entirely different state of af. fairs Is to be found. There everything 1s bustle and Industry and the Inde pendence League managers are priding themselves on the fact that, after the coming eleetlen their party will bo a recognized party undor the laws of the state. It will only be necessary to poll 10,- 000 votes for the Independence League to establish the organization at a reg ular party so that It can hold conven tions and select entire tickets for fu ture state und local elections. That the league will poll many times the necessary 10.000 votes la a certainty, and the regular parly leaders look wilh Jealous eyes upon the strides that the new organization haz taken. Ballot it Cumbersome. The ballot this year Is the most cum bersome ever known since the Inaugu ration of the Australian system In this state. There will be nine full columns on tho ballot and In somq of the col umns there will be several different emblems for various Independent con gressional, state and assembly nomi nees. For Manhattan and the Bronx there will bo seventeen independent emblems, many of which are gro- tesque. One assembly candidate has selected a hat as an emblem, another a pair of nippers, another an open hand, another a horseshoe, another a moose, another a four-leaf clover, and another a shamrock. One Independent candidate for congress has selected a horse and a lion and another has a ferocious looking ox. Some of the odd emblems that appear on the ballot Include a can non, and a horse car. Lawyers Form Csmmittee. The lawyers have fornjed an Inde pendent coinmltteo of which Joseph H. Choate Is chairman and Alton B. Park er, vice chairman. This committee nominated a full non-partisan ticket for the ten places on the supreme court bench and the three minor Judicial of fices to be filled at the coming election. They took the official title of Judiciary nominators, and adopted a black trian gle as their emblem. Tills title and emblem will go on the official ballot over the names of their candidates. Tammany Hall got up a special ticket by petition, containing tho names of all tho regular Tammany nominees for the bench, and nominated them over again as Independents. This pseudo-independent ticket goes on the ballot right next to the ticket of the judiciary nominators and It has "Inde pendent nominators” for Its title, and a blackened anvil as an emblem. Hope to Confuee Voters. The Idea of this whole proposition Is to confuse voters, so that many who Intend to vote the ticket of the Judi clary nominators, which has been In dorsed by the Republicans and stands a fair chance of election, will put their mark In the circle under the anvil, and, therefore, cast their votes by mis take for the Tammany nominees, which would mean that the combined votes of the latter would be counted. Protest to tbo board of elections against this has been unavailing, and the time Is ton short to allow tho torneys for the judiciary nominators to carry their case Into court. Thus the Tammany men hope that In their confusion many voters, hesitating to split their ballots, for fear of invalidat ing them, will vote straight party tick ets, while still others will vote the an vll ticket by mistake.
