about miles of and
near The wreck was
caused by the breaking of a truck
on a coal car. About feet of
the track was torn up, but none of
the cars were damaged to great
extent. Several passengers were
in the coach attached to the train
but they all escaped injury. A
wrecking train went down early
Saturday night and finished clear-
repairing the track by
Sunday.
When news of the wreck first
reached Greenville it was feared
that it might be the passenger

Grade Your Tobacco,
There was never such a leaf to
trade as there is this season.
East of here there is a rush. Ii is
said that some markets the
farmers do not even sort their leaf,
but are so well pleased with their
prices that they put it on the Moors
just as it if. The result is that
the buyers make big money, as
they sort it with special care.
Raleigh Correspondent.
There is a in the foregoing
item which tobacco growers
make a note of. The Free

the that the cost of grading i-
a which must come
out of tho tobacco. If the grower
grade it the lam it works to
his benefit in two First, he
saves the cost of grading, and thus
keeps in his own pocket money
which would lie paid out
and, if the leaf
sorted it will bring more money.
The farmer who rushes his weed to
market dues not get all
the money out of his crop there is
in it, and it's he is after,
presumably. The who acts
upon the advice of die
buyers last week and

whole or part, to as can
establish, to tho satisfaction of the
government, that they are not en-
gaged in any agreements or
nations that are intended to con-
the prices, or the cost of trans
of commodities that are
of the descriptions that enter into.
or foreign commerce.
power thus exercised Is
simply taxing power and is not
connected with the
power of Congress to regulate com-
between the states or with
foreign countries.
is the application of the
principled of taxation which are
well nettled, to corporations which
have agreements that
violate the purpose for which they
