C., died in the infirmary here to-day as the result of being run over by a train at Pee Dee Junction last night. The young man with a companion named J. P. Pifer were riding "blind baggage," between the tender and first express car, and VSwIlAtr fall onnn offa, tlia trtl 1T1 Iftft J* IWi OWU U1VV1 VUV Pee Dee and was badly crushed, but lived to be brought to the infirmary, where he died during the night. An inquest was held this morning, at which Pifer was present and told of the accident, and gave directions for finding the family of the young man. The body was sent home for burial to-day. After the young man fell from the train his body lay beside the track for some little while until a chance passerby found it and reported to the agent, who sent him to the infirmary here. " It seems from the article published in another column that the project of opening up the Edisto river to navigation has met a violent death at the hands of the board of engineers. The matter can be appealed, but we fear that little will come of ?. f/ i Vs > *- V: V V ;Y:. - - , - ;: " NOT A ^RNOttMHTT BLOW." " V " * ; ' ' i Mileage Polling Question not Decided by North Carolina Court. i Charlotte, N .C., Dec. 11.?In the report of the action of the North 1 Carolina Supreme court in the case 1 of Harvey vs. the Atlantic Coast Line ' it was erroneously stated that the 1 Court had dealt a "knock-out blow" 1 to the regulation of the North Carolina railroads which requires holders 1 of mileage books to exchange mile- ! age for tickets at stations. The ! opinion affirmed the decision of the lower court awarding $2,500 damaees to Harvey, who brought suit ! when he. was put off a train after he was unable to exchange his mileage : at a station because of a large crowd at the ticket window. After reviewing the case, Chief Justice Clark, in a supplementary : opinion, said: "I not only concur in 1 the opinion of the Court, but further, ' upon a point as to which it was not ; found necessary for the Court to ex- i press itself, I am of the opinion that the requirement that the holder of a . mileage book shall present it and , obtain a ticket thereon is an unreasonable regulation and therefore void." * John Y. Darlington and James Stobo Young, convicted at Columbia Jan. last of breach of trust with < fraudulent intent, to the amount of i $55,596, in connection with the collapse of the Seminole Securities \ company and the Carolina Agency , company, have at last gotten their appeal docketed in the supreme 5 court, after continuances over two J terms, because of difficulty in securing the necessary transcript of testimony; and the case will likely be argued at the current term. The brief was filed Monday. Garlington was sentenced to serve three years at hard labor in the penitentiary and a similar sentence for one year was given Young. They gave bond in the sum of $5,000 each. Garlington is also under bond in several other cases, wherein he has been indicted but not yet tried.. The offense of which they were convicted is alleged to have been committed January 15, 1908. Cotton is selling in Bamberg today ^(Wednesday) for 14% cents the pound.
