MULES AND MUD ATTRACT CROWD Entertainment fog several hundred people standing on the Broad street and Whitehall street viaduct* Friday morning was furnished by the efforts of a flock of teamsters to remove from shin-deep mud a wagon of the Morrow Transfer Company, which had stalled In the railroad yards below. For three hours the negroes labored. G. H. Morrow', president of the compa ny, was called and came upon the scene to superintend, but his presence aided little. The two mules hitched to, the wagon gave up the Job after an Hour, and two more were added, but with small results, for each muJe seemed to have his own time and method of do ing things. Teams coming from the depots were blocked up all the way- back to the Forsyth street underpass. The crowd standing high and dry on the viaduct laughed at the men la boring in the inud below. It was queer, but no ono on the ground could move the wagon, while there were a hundred or more on the viaducts who said they could do It In ten minutes, easy. “Why, when I was a boy,” asserted a prosperous middle-aged man, “and worked on a farm, I could get a wood wagon out of a mud hole six feet deep. I can go right down there now and get that team out In Just three minutes." “Twist that off mule's tall!” ven tured a countryman. a “Get a freight engine,” urged anoth er member of tho crowd. Just what those below were saying could not be heard. Finally by lifting the wagon and concerted action on the part of the mules the vehicle rolled away. . L, B.

With the closing of the office here. It Is further understood that W. L. Hen derson, Southern ngent of this depart ment, it ordered to Washington . and thnt the ten men employed In the At lanta office will he dispensed with. This means thnt Atlanta will lose one of the Important factors for several years past In building up the Industrial South and that a payroll of between 11.500 nnd 12,000 a month will be cut off.
