COUNTESS GUOTS
IS GMELLSS
here that a deliberate disregard of her
physician's orders was responsible for
the critical illness of the Countess
Szechenyi, formerly Glady Vanderbilt,
of New York. Despite the warning
of her doctors and her friends, it is
declared that within the past three
months the countess has become a
sudden devotee of tennis, cricket and
barebtck riding.
Even when her condition became
such that she should have remained
in doors she persisted in giving up
her days to the most violent of exer
cises, and it was only when her hus
band virtually made her desist by
force that she cansented to forego
them.
The predicted crisis came almost
immediately, but after hovering on
the verge for several days the
countess was so far recovered as to
insist upon accompanying her hus
band by automobile to the army ma
neuvers near Budapest.
Countess Gladys expects to spend
Christmas in America.

OPERATIVES Mi
INTO MILL STRIKE
Augnstans Who Went To
New Orleans Found Con
ditions Unpleasant—Only
Two Went To Work.
NEW ORLEANS. —Cotton mill op
eratives brought here from other cit
ies, chiefly Augusta, Ga., have, in
most instances, refused to go to work
after traveling a thousand miles, be
cause they found they were to take
the places of strikers who refused
to submit to a reduction in wages.
The Laue-Maginnis mill operatives
have been out for several days, and,
rather than enter negotiations for set
tling the strike, the officials of the
mills started a strenuous campaign
searching for operatives in other mill
sections of the South.
Assistant Superintendent of the
mills A. O. Hero, went to Augusta
and, complying with the emigration
laws of the state by filing his name
and getting license, began active
work in that city with the result that
quite a large number of operatives
were secured before the American
i ederation of Labor could locate him
and give warning to Its members.
It is now claimed that the operatives
were secured on misrepresentation,
and Mayor Martin Behrman has been
asked to make an invest igatlon.
The dispute between the operators
and operatives arose over a 2rt per
cent reduction In wages which the
operatives would not agree to, hut in
an effort to compromise they sub
mitted an agreement allowing in per
cent reduction, provided they were al
lowed to work full lime. This did
not go through and the strike re
sulted.
The Imported operatives refused to
go to work when they became ac
quainted with existing conditions, but
they are stranded here without money
or homes and many will he in a des
titute condition within a few days.
They are now already being taken
care of hv the striking operatives
whose homes are already over-crowd
ed. The Imported operatives were to
go to work Friday, hut few of them
showed up.
Among thoso working are two An
giißtaiiH. one of them being Hugh
Cavanaugh, a weaver, who states that
he Is well satisfied with conditions
and has telegraphed his family to
come and join in the work; and S.
J. Gay, who is at work and satis
fied. The outcome of the investiga
tion Into the affair will be watched
with Interest.
The mill owners deny that any false
representations were made to opera
tives, and that they are prepared to
carry out every feature of the con
tracts made with operatives coming
to the cty.

PROF. ADAMS REPORT
IS NOW COMPLETE
Recommends an Appro
priation Sufficient To
Appraise Valuation Of
All Roads.
WASHINGTON. Henry C. Adams,
statistician of the Interstate com
merce commission, has completed his
annual report of statistics of ruil
ways in the United Stales. I’rof.
Adams strongly reiterates lilh recoin
mendation for legislation providing
for the physical valuation of railroad
property, pointing out that the uni
form system of bookkeeping preserlb
ed by the commission makes II dou
bly desirable that congress appropri
ate a sum sufficient to appraise the
value of all American railroads.
“From whatever point of view this
question of valuation be regarded,"
says Prof. Adams, “whother of reas
onable capitalization, of a reasonable
schedule of rales, or effective admin
lstration of the depreciation accounts
or of the correct interpretation of the
balance sheet, one is forced to con
clude that an authoritative valuation
of railway property Is the next Im
portant step In the development of
governmental supervision over rail
way administration.”
