Raleigh, Oct. 17.—Tho Democratic elate committee has issued .an address to N< rrh Carolina voters. It says: "Tho party had no hesitation in fus ing on tho electoral ticket, and in order that Bryan's administration might not fail for want of silver legislation, pm- posed to tho Populists a united effort for silver congressmen in every district, but the Populists declined the proposi tion which was made on Aug. 12 and in- : isted on Fincc more recently u becamo apparent that tho Republican party was classing an enormous registration of il legal voters, made possible by an elec tion law of boasted fairness, but the pro visions of which plainly permit fraud as many of those who assisted in its en actment now plainly tee. "Tho negroes have drawn tlio color line, and seeing tho white people di vided on gold and silver have formed an unbroken Republican column, trusting the apparently divided white vote will 1 give them a dominant position. North Carolinians must come together to pro tect North Carolina. In this crisis the ; Democratic party realizes tho hopes of the people. White men must bo asked to unite. This committee, Oct. 12, frankly asked co-operations. This the Populist committee decline.t to do. In this effort tlio Democratic committee Icit that the heart of the people was witii it and cannot think the action of t!.*' Populist committee can express tho wish of many of that party who hon- e- tly favor silver legislation and go d government. Offers to the Populist party of fusion wore made because (’no Democratic party felt the importance of uniting the white people of North Caro lina for their common inf' rests. "Having failed in its efforts to unite the parties favoring silver and wiii e vupivmaey, it now calls on the votej-s t i support tho only ticket that offers a hope of success against McKinley aud Russell.’’ CAME NEAR CAUSING FIGHT.

New Ycm:, Oct. 20.—A dispatch to Tho World from Havana say.;: Woylcr and Blanco will bn recalled, Premier Cauovas will fall and grave events will occur in Spain, Madrid dispatches say it is believed there, unless tho rebels in Cuba and the Phillipine islands arc con quered within a month. Tlio Madrid pro j openly attacks Cauovas and Wey- lor because of their inability to check tho Cuban revolution. Tlio Madrid Herald says: "While Havana and New York in form us that the Cuban rebels are j penned in with hardly any money to j carry on their revolt. Premier Cauovas j trios to make us be ievo that they have j money to burn and sow it broadcast in Spain and her colonics. The recent up risings in Valencia and Pcdralva (Spain) and Cavite (Phillippino islands) have Li en boldly charged to the Cuban junta through its paid men. Every time a disturbance occurs, tho government de nies responsibility for it. attributing it to the underhanded doings of tho Cuban rebels. , "The truth is that there is a deep feeling among the masses who arc in open hostility towards tho government, tired of suffering for its misdeeds, and soon to rise un against it. The new re inforcements of 40,000 will hardly suffice to keep the rebels at bay and more will be required—who knows how many j merer ’ The Nuevo Mnendo violently attacks Weyler, saying that under his command the Cuban revolt has assumed greater proportions than when Campos was in , Cuba, and that if in a mouth’s time after the arrival of reinforcements he , does not deal a finishing blow to tho re bellion his showing will have been worse than Campos’ was. Regarding the report that President Cleveland intended taking action in favor of tho insurgents, Scuor Cauovas | c lys the government lias received as- ; suranc'M from Washington quite to the contrary. "Naturady the United States govern ment desires, for many reasons, to see an early termination of the war, but further than that nothing could exceed the loyal conduct of the president and his cabinet toward Spain and her gov ernment. Our relations for the present moment are of tho most cordial na ture.” AN IMPORTANT PROJECT. I’l'otcshuit K|»|sci>piil Cliurcti to Orgaiil/o an Army ol Uniformed Evangelista. New Yop.k, Oct. 20.—Tho Herald says: The Protestant Episcopal Church of tiio United States is about to organ ize an army of uniformed evangelists who will bo under military discipline and compete with tho Salvation Army and the American Volunteers in tho field of Christian work among the poor. ’J his important project has been decided upon at a meeting of prominent clergy men from different parts of the country held in tho church missions house. The matter came up for consideration some time ago before tho Parochial Mis- rions society. A committee of this rep resentative body was appointed to in- vcK’.igatc tho army project. The inves tigating committee’s report was read and recommended tho adoption of the r.nny scheme. The committee was ap pointed and it will at once proceed to complete the details of tho organization. Tho plans will include tho best feat ures of tho Salvation Army and of the Church Army of England, from which tho former organization sprang. A corps of trained evangcli-ts, under mil itary discipline, will ho stationed in flifl -ront cities. These men will preach in the streets and bo aided by bands of music. Tho work ultimately will in clude the erection of laborers’ homes and lodginghou es for men and rescue- hoU:-e i for fallen women. Clarke It: jiIJiw In Ilia Ci-ltlcx.

All the bondsmen of the O.istles were ;mong those present, and H. 11. Hudson, representing the United States embassy, was accommodated with a seat at the solicitor's table. Thf re was a huniniing of exciting comment, which'was quickly hushed by the presiding magistrate. Robert New- j ton. as Mr. Castle, tall and digni fied in demeanor, entered the court. He was followed by bis wif“, who was sty lishly and becomingly dressed in a tailor made dress of gray material. Mrs. Cas tle carried a handkerchief in her right hand and held it almost continuously up to her face .is if to thwart the efforts of the police court artists, i; there were any iu the vicinity, to sketch her feat ures. She was more composed tintn last week, when her distress touched every body present. But, in spite of this gain in strength, due no doubt to her release from prison and rest at tho residence of a friend, 51 rs. Castle no sooner found herself i’n tho pi isoner’s dock than she showed symptoms of faintness, verging on to co!lapM\ which caused tho police* man on duty at her side to fetch u se.it and place it iu the dock for the use of Mr. and Mrs. Castlo. The latter then sat wearily on it, closed her eyes and turned her lie.id upon her husband’s shoulder as if seek ing strength necessary to enable her tu bear up under such a trying ordeal. Mr. Castlo. as on Tuesday last, placed his arm affectionately around Ids wife and supported her as b -t ho could. Sirs. Castlo .AIimiumI ritcansly. During tho further hearing of the case against her, and incidentally against her husband, Mrs. Castlo frequently moaned so piteously that, finally, the kindhoartod policeman already referred to, handed her a bottle of salts. Miss Patty Alhyood, a saleswoman in the employ of Gustavo Kilns, a furrier of Regent street, testified that on Thurs day, Oct. 1, Mrs. Castlo and her son. 10 years old, visited tho store. The female prisoner, witness added, asked if tlio concern could make a chinchilla cape and was informed that tho work could bo done. The witness further testified that the prisoner showed her two small chinchilla skins and remarked: "1 should like to have those made here.” Continuing Miss Allwood said; ‘‘I went to another part of the shop to speak to Air. Edits, and on returning the female prisoner said she could wait no longer, as she wanteddo take her sou to lunch and would return in half an hour. But I did not see her again until Oct. 8, when 1 was summoned to the Vino street police station. There I saw thri sable muff which I identified as the property of Mr. El Ins. I last saw tho muff in the shop, ten minutes before the female prisoner fled. The muff was in a glass case, close to whore she was standing.” Replying to questions on tho subject the witness said that the door of tlio case had to be opened and iu order t > get the muff the door hud to bo properly closed when the prisoner left the shop. Replying to another que.sti i. Miss All- wood said it was after the omale pris oner left the store she not d that tlio door of the case was not ’ . o t 'wly close 1. Tcutimniiy 4if Furrier Swarlzrl. The next witness was Alexander Swurtzcl, a furrier of Great Portland street. In substance he testified that on Sept. 20 Mrs. Castle wont to his store alone and askoT to see a chinchilla cape. Her son came in later alone, and while Mrs. Castlo was in tho store she was fol lowed by Mr. Castle. Witness, contin uing, said: "I continued talking to Mrs. Castle, while Castlo stood looking at some furs un the iighthaud side of tho show room. There were fur trimmings and ties near where he was standing. Ho continued looking at tlio furs; but I can’t say he touched them. Mrs. Castle and tho boy left the shop first and they wore followed soon afterwards by Mr. Castlo, I did not miss anything from j the shop until I wont to the Vine street i polieo stattion and found tho kalinksy fur; belonging to mo and valued at £01 ami £45 respectively. They were in tho righthand part of tho showroom where Mrs. Castlo stood.” After similar evidence had boon fur- nished by other furriers, the manager of tho Hotel Cecil identified tho platt d toast rack and a cream jug marked "Hotel Cecil” found among the effects of tho Castles, a detective recounted the incidents which accompanied tho ar rests of tho irisouers and tho rases for the prosocu’iou was closed. After this feature of tho cuso had been formally wound up, Mr. Charles Matthews, leading counsel for tho Cas tles, asked that the prisoners be com mitted for trial at the Central criminal court, but Mr. Newton refused to do so, saying that his insti notions were to e;,d all shoplifting cases for trial at 4he ses sions, and therefore lie committed both prisoners for trial, allowing bail in £20,000, as before, at tho Cinrkcnwcll sessions, Nov. 2.
