Bond in of Solicitor l. in his controversy with the Commissioners of Pitt County. contended that the construction of an act of the last allowing the solicitor an- to be paid monthly from the treasury of Pitt in lieu of fees now provided by law, meant that he is to receive this amount and in addition thereto such fees as the defendants themselves pay in the criminal court in cases where they are convicted. The Supreme court held otherwise. Opinions were handed down as fol- lows v. Harvey from Pitt, appeal dismissed. v. Commissioners, from reversed. Humphrey v. Lang, from Pitt, V.

On Tuesday, with over pounds, two of the seven ware- houses were unable to sell, and yes- with equally as much of the weed here, two other houses were ed over lo this morning's sale. Al- though cumber of pounds won't reach half million mark today, it will require minute of the sale hours to finish on all the floors, the houses being tilled from wall to wall. The number of pounds that have been sold on the local market this weeks has surprised many of the it being far above their expectations. As was published in THE TOR yesterday the Greenville market ran second for the number of pounds sold during the month of September, and if sales continue as heavy the remainder of October as they have been for the first part, Greenville will no doubt make it close for Wilson on the top round on the number of pounds. No market In North Carolina have made better averages than have been made by the growers selling on local floors, In fact some of the local ware- houses are leading the state.
