Judge George Hillyer, of Atlanta, haa been elected vice chairman of the Geor. gla railroad commlanlon, and will pre aide In the absence of Chairman Me Lendon. Judge Hillyer *ay» that hla election tvae more a matter of form than other wise. After two months 1 service on the commission Judge Hillyer aaya he flnda the work congenial to hla tastes and habits. He finds most of the duties matters with which he han long been familiar, both In the law and the prac tical application of hla knowledge to railroad problems. In an Interview Saturday Judge Hill yer aaya Interesting things about the railroad situation and the work that Ilea before the commlsalon: A Personal Inapection. "Mr. Hill and I recently made a per sonal Inspection of parts of the track of one of the railroads upon which there had been n report by the regular inspector. Of course, It would be Im practicable for members of the commis sion to repeat such an Inapection In its entirety by again going over tt. but Its verity, or want of verity, ae the cane may be, would be determined by Judiciously sampling the work here and there and at different points along the line, as was done In the present case. "It is the policy, and, as I understand It, will be the practice, to call for re ports from time to time, so that the commission and the public may feel assured not that defects. If any exist, have been discovered, but that they have been remedied, and this does not refer to any one particular railroad more than another, but alike Inspection and effort to remedy will faithfully be made as to all the roads In their turn, one after another, so far as the meins and resources at the command of the commission will admit. Won’t Injure Railroads, "The commission does not wish to In jure the railroads In any way, and will be cautious and considerate In this matter, aa In all others; but will act with the vigor provided by law when the necessity arises. In this matter, as In most others,- wisdom lies In the middle ground. The railroads should have reasonable rates, and should make reasonable repairs, so as to make their tracks and trains safe, and do It well and promptly. These are my own views when here stated in this form, but I have no doubt all the other commissioners think the same way. "Undoubtedly an unsafe railroad track and. roadbed Is a menace, a con stant menace, to life and property, and U an unspeakable evil. It Is a remedla. ble evil, and It would be a reproach to the railroads themselves If It were not remedied. If the different railroads will apply themselves at once and dili gently to this work, when, at unex pected times and places, one of our In spectors appears and finds everything In good order and ae It should be, hts report will show It, and the company will be entitled to the credit. "But, coming at unexpected times and placee, whatever the Inspector flnda Is wrong will surely be discovered, re ported to the commission, and appro priate steps taken to the extent of the commission's powers and Jurisdiction for applying the proper remedy. 00 OOOOOtMKKlOtSOOOOOOOOOCKKJO O D O STATISTICS.

O O O Telegraph etrlke lasted from O O August 11 to November 8—nearly O O three months. O O Number of . Atlanta operators O O who struck, 200. O a Number who remained out until O O the end, 160. O O Amount lost In salary by West- O O em Union operators for three O O months, about 226.000. O O Amount lost by Postal operators O O during three months, about O o *3.000. a O Number of vacancies open at O O Western Union, eight or ten. O O Number open with Postal, none. O O Number open with Associated O Press, none. Q O OOOOOOOOOOOOChJOOOOO OOOlWOO By a unanimous vote taken late Fri day afternoon, the local union of the Commercial Telegraphers decided to suspend tbe telegraph strike, aa fore- coated In The Georgian Friday, and, os a result, tho officials of both companl- and the Associated Press In Atlanta have applications for more positions than there are vacancies. At present there are no vacancies with the Postal In Atlanta, and ths two vacancies that were there were filled Friday afternoon by the men who hod been out on strike. Thera are still eight or ten vacancies with ths Western Union in Atlanta, but announced by the officials that they era In no particular hurry to HU these, as the men are not especially needed at this time. Superintendent J. Levin, of the southern division of the Western Un ion, says all tba offices In his division are filled up and that there are no va cancies. In Atlanta he says there are ■till eight or ten place* not filled and that while he would like to take care of the strikers, he has not the placee for them at present. Whet Strikers Lost. '1 like the boys who worked with us and who struck," said Mr. Levin. “As a rule they were a fins set of men and many of them were led Into the strike against their-will. There were 116 op erators who struck In Atlanta on the Western Union and the average salary they received was (68.74. This was only the regular salary and to this must he added the extra monsy made, which was considerable. All over my divis ion ths average salaries ranged from 268 to over |80, while some received over 5100 as a regular salary. To Illus trate what extra money Is made I might cits ths case of a woman opera tor In Atlanta whose regular salary was only 528.50, but who received an average all last year of 19$ a month.” The Postal now has all vacancies filled, with eight operators In the main office and two wire chiefs and eleven operators In the branch offices. Man ager Alfred M. Beatty said that the only two vacancies he had were filled Friday afternoon after the strike had been called off. He haa had four other applications, he says, but has no place to put these applicants. One vacancy was filled at ths Asso ciated Press by a striker, but all tha other positions ere filled. Go to Other Work. Many of the strikers left town during the early part of the strike and ac cepted positions In railroad offices and In other lines of business, so that the list of those who can not get positions Is not as large as might be expected. An Idea of the money lost to the tel egraph operators In ealary during the ■trike may be gained when It Is slated that the pay roll each month of the Western Unton In Atlanta at the time of the strike was between $11,000 and $12,000 a month. The atrlk* commaneed In Atlanta on August 11 and continued until Novem ber 5. a period of almost three month*. Superintendent Levin says that In this time the striking Western Union em ployees have loet In salaries over $20,- 000. The average salary In Atlanta, out- slde of extra pay, wax 158.74. Thera ware llfi operators who struck, making the monthly amount paid them In reg ular salaries nearly 15,000.

Manager Beatty, of the PoetaL was not at liberty to give out any pay roll flgurea, but It wa* learned from oper ators that the average ealary paid KY the Postal In Atlanta was about *55. This would make th* monthly pay roll of ths Postal over 51,000 a month, or 22.000 for the three montha of the ■trike. Ths striker* entertain no malice to ward their former employers and say If they get back to work they will give their best efforts to their employers.

Hla topic will be "Running Against the Schedule of God's Will." Dr. White’s well-known eloquence and his sympathy and love for railroad men will no doubt serve to draw out a large attendance. Professor A. C. Boatman, a master of chorus singing and a fine soloist, will have charge of the music, and Mr. A. K. Adklnson. a fine musician, will be th* piano accompanist. Altogether this will be one of the moat attractive services In the city on Sunday afternoon and a large attend ance of men Is expected.
