The doctors say Dunn is resting quietly. It is a miracle no one was killed. No one except the parties in the matter know of the contents of the letter in question in the shooting and there is only rumor as to what it contained.

So many people have asked us about this case for the purpose of getting more information, that we give below a later and fuller report of Florence, S. C. March the United States Circuit Court here today. Justice Brawley, presiding, without allowing the case to no to the jury, gave a decision in the plaintiffs in a brought by Messrs. Alexander Son, Wilmington, against the Co., of Che raw, S C in which the plain- tiffs sought to recover of the de- between and for failure on the part of the South Carolina firm to de- liver several hales of cotton on ct at ten cents per pound. Both sides were represented able counsel and the decision it regarded as very important as establishing a precedent in a similar suits brought by the same exporter's both in the State and United States Courts in the mid Georgia, in which large territory they operate. Messrs. W. P. Pollock and D. L. Laney, of and Messrs. Willcox Willcox and H. of appeared for the Messrs. while the were represented by Messrs. and Stevenson, of The plaintiffs set up in the suit just decided that the Che raw contracted to deliver several hundred of cotton at a specified time at cents per round; that they, them selves, made contracts with European spinners to take the cotton chartered ships id which to curry it; that price f cotton went up and refused to y with their contracts, g plain- tiffs to go out in the market and buy the cotton tiny had bought on contract, at per pound. The defense set up that the contract was under the State law prohibiting the dealing futures and that they were, therefore, not re quired to perform their part of it. It is held by the court, how ever, that the contract is a per- one in that it has no clause providing for a settlement of any difference other than delivery of the spot cotton and does not, therefore, come under the ban of futures or The case was exceedingly hard fought and the termination is regarded a great victory for the exporters. WILL BUILD NICE COURT HOUSE. The Board of County at the meeting Tuesday, gave the matter of building a new court house much consider- After looking at plans and illustrations of architects present, the board decided to set another day later in the month to consider the matter more fully. the meantime a committee of the board will vis- it some other counties that have lately erected new court houses with a view of inspecting these and better arriving at the needs for Pitt The members of the board have the needs of the county earnestly at heart and desire to do the very best thing, The Reflector feels sure they will build a court house a jail that will be creditable to the county. The eyes of the whole State are now on Pitt which is regarded as one of the best in North Carolina, and many desires are expressed to see the county take a great step forward and in building meet the needs of generations to come. We are sure the ex- of all will be met Greenville was the first town in this section of the State, and perhaps the first of its size any where the State, to establish day current with its electric plant.

The summer the of day electric current will no doubt largely in- crease, as the convenience from it is found to be so great. The Reflector plant would hardly know to get along without electric current, and many other users feel the same way about it. Subscribe to The Reflector. NEW HARDWARE AT FARMVILLE.
