Six years ago Mr. Hopkins met his
wife and they eloped on his yacht Uno.

WILSON HAS LEAD IN
NORTH CAROLINA ffllMffl
He Is Well Ahead in the 46
oCunties Already Heard
from
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 21.—Gov.
Woodrow Wilson ran ahead of all other
candidates in the primary and conven
tions that were held in 42 of the 96
counties in North Carolina Saturday
last. A telegram from National Com
mitteeman Daniels states that the New
Jersey governor was given instructions,
in nine counties, while he divided with
Chairman Underwood in three counties.
Mr. Underwood also obtained instruc
tions in three counties. Speaker Clark
split even with Governor Wilson in
Dare, the smallest county in the state.
Governor Wilson won victories; in
many townships —where the counties
failed to express a preference between
the presidential candidates. The larger
number of counties took no action one
way or another, but among those that
expressed a preference Governor Wilson
is way In the lead.
Many counties will hold conventions
this week. While he was carrying the
day in North Carolina, Governor Wilson
triumphed over Speaker Clark in a pri
mary contest in the home county of
William L. Wilson, who was one of
the greatest leaders that the Demo
cratic party has produced in congress.
IN WEST VIRGINIA.
The following telegram from Hon.
William Campbell, at Charlestown, W.
Va., received today, tells of the result:
"At Monday’s primaries Woodrow
Wilson swept Jefferson, the banner
Democratic county of West Virginia
and the home of that great Democratic
leader, William L. Wilson. West Vir
ginia Democrats believe that the mantle
of the great ’tariff reformer has fallen
on his namesake."
Mercer, another large West Virginia
county, in the heart of the coal mining
region, also instructed for Governor
Wilson in Saturday’s primary contest.
This county instructed in favor of the
nomination of Lawrence Tierney, a
strong Wilson man, for delegate at
large.

(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, May 22.—The negro re
bellion in Cuba has caused the stats de- 5
partment to consider the dispatch’ of a I
warship to the eastern end of the ta- S
land to reinforce the small naval force 4
now there. The gunboat Nashville is ■
not far distant at Santo Domingo City, i
and the cruiser Montgomery Is at Fen- J
sacola, Fla., within two days’ run of '*
Guantamo, which appears to be the cen
ter of the insurrecto movement. »
The strengthening of the American »i
naval force would not necessarily Indi
cate a purpose on the part of the ad- j
ministration to again intervene in Cubac®
but it is believed would have a salutary.
moral effect on the rebels who are men
acing foreign property.
