Standard Passenger Fare of 2 1-2
Cents a Mile is Coming,
EFFECTIVE APRIL FIRST
It is Announced That on the Date Named
All Roads Wiil Be on Same Basis.
Mileage Books 2 and 2 1-4 Cts.
Formal announcement of general
passenger rate revision for Georgia,
as exclusively foretold by the At
lantal Constitution more than a month
ago, has come at last, and the prepa
rations for putting all standard sys
tems of the state on a flat 2 1-2
cents basis, are now in progress.
This means that after April 1 there
Will be no 2 and 2 1-3 cent rates on
any of the railroads in Georgia, as
fixed under the Terrell administration,
but that the roads now charging those
rates will go to a 2 1-4 cent basis.
Rate clerks of the various roads are
engaged in the work of preparing the
new rate sheets, state and interstate,
on the 2 1-2 cent basis, preparatory
to the new system of rates going
into effect on April 1.
These changes are to follow upon
the recent agreement as to passenger
rates with the Southern railway un
der which it is to put into effect a flat
rate of 2 12 cents over its entire
system, to sell 2,000 miles books for
commercial uses at 2 cents and 500
mile books for family use at 2 1-4
cents.
At the time that agreement was
made President Finley of the South
ern railway announced that it was
the purpose of that system to put in
the 2 1-2 cent rate on all lines, mak
ing it bhoth interstate and intrastate.
The Constitytion announcad a month
ago that the other roads would follow
suit and would, at the proper time, be
granted permission Dby the railroad
commission to increase their rates to
the 2 1-2 cent basis.
As evidence of this fact the Atlan
tie Coast Line, which was formerly
in the 2 1-4 cent class, has aiready beecn
granted permission by the state rail
road commission to increase its rate
to 2 1-2 cents per mile, in considera
tion of which fact it will put'on the
sanme mileage book rates as agreed to
by the Southern, and will sell inter
state tickets at the 2 1-2 cent rate.
This means, of course, that the same
permission will be granted to the West
ern and Atlantic and the Atlanta and
West Point, now in the 2 cent class,
and to the Georgia railroad, which
was placed, along with the Atlantic
Coast Line, in the 2 1-4 cent class.
Of course these lines will also put
mileage books on the same basis as
the Southern and Coast Line have
agreed to do, and both the interstate
and dntrastate rates will be 2 1-2
cents,
After April 1 the standard railroad
rate in Georgia will be 2 1-2 cents, a
mile, just as it was 3 cents a mile prior
to last September.
Of course it will take some time to
work out all the new passenger tariffs
on the' basis of the new rate, and that
is what the rate clerks now assembled
in Atlanta are doing. r'hey will make
both the state and interstate tariffs
on the same basis, and will have them
ready to go into effect on the appoint
ed date.
The Georgia Southern and Florida
has come to the same terms with re
gard to passenger rates on the.South
ern railway.
Announcement to this effect is mada
in a letter from Vice President and
GGeneral Manager S. F. Parrott, to
Chairman S. G. Mclendon.
The Georgia Southern and Florida
was in the 2 1-2 cent class on the old
basis. It will grant interstate rates at
2 1-2 cents, and mileage books at the
same figures as those named by the
Sotuhern rilway, namely, commercial
2,000-mil books at 2 cents a mile and
Jsoo-mile. books for family use at 2 1-4
rcents.

JUDGE BEFORE BAR.
Grosscup and Fellow Railway Directors
Held Responsible for Wreck Which
: Caused Eighteen Deaths.
‘Peter S. Grosscup, presiding judge of
the Unitegl Stai~s circuit court at Chi
cago, with ssven other directors, offi
cers and employees of the Central
lllinois Traction company, were ar
rigned Monday before Judge M. Thomp
son in the Coles county circuit court at
Charelston, 111, on charges of criminal
negligence .a‘ud manslaughter.
The defendants arraigne dwith Judge
Grosscup were Arthur W. Underwood,
Francis S. Peabody and Marshall W.
Sampseil, all of Chicago, and all direc
tors in the company; President E. A.
Potter, Chicago; Superintendent Fred
Moore,.Charleston, and Motormen B. F.
McCrara and Charles Botts, Charles
ton.
The eight men were indicted as a
result of the interurban collision one
mile west of Charleston on the Char
leston and Mattoon interurban line, on
Augusc¢ 30, 1907, in which eighteen
passengers were killed and fifty-three
injured.
The cases against Judge Grosscup
and his fellow dtrectors and their
employees were the first called by
Judga Thompson on the convening of
court. The defendants were all pres
ent.
All the accused men pleaded ‘not
guilty” to the charges made in the in
dictments. A formal motion to quash
the indictments was then made in
each case. Levy Mayer of Chicago
immediately began an argument sup
porting the motion to quash, it having
been agreed that for the purpose of
this motion all the cases should e
concluded as the same points are in
volved in each cases. He will con
sume probably three days with his
argument,
Affidavits were filed in each case giv
ing reasons for declaring the indict
ments invalid. v
NON-WORKERS “WORK” CHARITY.
But One Per Cent of New York Unemploy
ed Really Wish to Work.
A New York dispatch says: It is
estimated by the managers for the
Society for the Improvement of the
Poor that there are approximately 30.-
000 bomeless men in New York. Of
these probably 60 per cent are non
residents. 1t is the society’s estimate
ithat about one per cent would work
if they were given employment. The
lgreat majority, a society manager
said, belong to the vagrant elass and
“‘work” the organization'<when taey
can get a chance to do so. !
’ “The men go to the missions,” he
said, “and get all they can, then to
ministers and get all they can there;
next they fall into the bread line and
|in a few days, when they think we
have forgotten them, come back to
us.”

PREPARED TO FIGHT
Railroad Trainmen Also Emphatically
Against Any Reduction—-Reasons
are Given at Length. |
Warren 8. Stone, grand chief of the ‘
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
made the following statement at |
Cleveland, Ohio, Friday, in connection
with the reported purpose of some rail
way companies to order a general re- ‘
duction of the wages of employees:
“The threatened reduction of wages
of employees in train service is abso
lutely unjustified from any point of
view. Their pay is based on a mile
age basis, practically piecework, and
they are only paid when there are
services to be performed. Wages of
employees in train service fall paral
lel with the shrinkage in business—
plus increased living expenses away
from home. When their earnings are
$l5O per month, their expense of liv
ing away from home is about 15 per
cent, while at the present reduced rate
of S7O, which has to be met by hun
dreds under present conditions, that
expense will increase it to at least 20
per cent of earnings, because they are
held away from the home terminal un
til there is a full-tonnage train to be
handled, making a total automatic re
duction already in wages from 60 to
70 per cent. :
“The roads are getting the same re
turn in freight receipts for the serv
ice rendered as they did when the busi--
ness was good, and there is no con
sistency in asking men to accept fur
ther reductions than result from the
present busincss shrinkage, and the
full power of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers will be used, if nec
essary, in an effort to prevent any
further reduction, because it would be
absolutely unjust.” r
William G. Lee, assistant grand mas
ter of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, speaking for his organiza
tion on the same subject, dictated the
following:
. “The wage workers have not ‘had a
thing to do with this panic and loss
of business, except to suffer from the
mismanagement of some employers angd
speculators. If he works he p‘roduc‘-!é
just as much per hodr asthe ever.did.
His living expenses are just as high
as before.
“All classes of trainmen are paid by
the mile or trip; and a reduction of
miles run or trips made, means a re
duction of the amount paid by the em
ployer,
“There can be no good argument
presented why trainmen should receive
lower trip or mileage rates for miles
run. Freight trains are not run unless
business requires it. Corporations
never carry an overload of labor, but
labor is usually compelled to carry an
overload of capitalization,
“Our principal business now is to
maintain the present standard of liv
ing, which means to hold to the pres
ent standard of wages, and, unless all
signs fail, railroad employees will op
pose to the bitter end any attempt to
reduce wages.”
No Decision at Conference.
The conference at Washington as to
wage adjustments between Vice Pres
ident and General Manager Ackert of
the Southern Railway cempany, and
representatives of the locomotive en
gineers was resumed Friday and a
coinference was also held with a com
mittee representing the conductors and
‘ trainmen.
~ The proposition made to these class
‘es of employes is substantially the
same as that made to the machinists
and other shopmen, which is to the
effect that in view of the condition of
business and the falling off in traffic,
the lowey scale of wages in effect a
year ago shall be restored.
No definite action hag been reached,
and a further conference will be held,

NOVEL SUIT DECIDED.
Ex-Convict Awarded Damages on Claim
That He Was Forced to Work
Overtime in Mines.
Testifying in the case of R. A. Kelth,
an ex-conviet from Fulton county, ‘
against the Chickamauga Coal and
Coke company, tried at Lafayette, Ga.,
Saturday, J. W. Goode, formerly deputy
warden at the mines at Durham, swore
that he had received $75 per month
from the company in addition to the
$75 jaid him by the state. The suit
resulted in a verdict for $2,000 dam
ages for Keith and will probably be
followed by indictments against the
officers of the coal company, charging
charging them with bribery,
Captain Goode testified that he did
not know for what purpose the money
was paid him. He further stated that
such conditions existed at almost evy
ery camp in the state, and that former
State Warden Jake Mopre knew the
money was paid him by the company.
Other officials employed by the state l
at Durham mines: E, B. Wingfield,
bookkeeper, and C. L. Tatum, c):fief.l
guard, acknowledged that they also re
ceived salaries from the company.
Webster James, vice president of the
company, acknowledged that the mon
ey was paid the state employees
through their Chattanooga office; that
it was charged to convict hires and
that the men were paid for looking af
ter the company's interest.
- Keith was sent up from Fulton coun
'ty for life on the charge of murder, but
‘was pardoned in January, 1907. He
asked $5,000 damages, claiming false
imprisonment, owing to the collusion
between the company and the state of
ficers, being really under the control
of the company.
Evidence was also introduced to
show that the convicts were worked
overtime, given wretched food and oth
erwise mistreated.

STOPS EMIGRATION.
Japan Finally Yields to Our Views and
Will Hereafter Keep Her Labor
ers at Home.
The memorandum of the Japanese
government ‘in reply to that of the
United States on the subject of emi
gration was handed to Aambassador
O’Brien at Tokio Wednegday.
It is understood that it agrees in the
general terms with a number of sug
gestions made by the American govern
ment, and requires a further restric
tion of emigration by the practical
prohibition, of laborers. The Japansee
government points out that the restric
tions already enforced, including the
cloging of emigration to Canada, Mex
ico and the Hawaiian islands, will
make further complaints from America
almosgt impossible,
Every evidence goes to prove that
the Japanese government has been un
sparing in its efforts to avoid further
complicutions rising from the emigra
tion question, but the government is
facing a powerful opposition frem the
emigration companies who are behind
a proposed revolution in the dlet to
censure the foreign policy of Viscount
Hayashi, minister of foreign affairs,
toward China, America and Canada.
Should the resolution be introduced
in the diet it will be probably defeat
ed by a narrow margin. Its passage
would certainly entail the resignation
of the cabinet. Shounld t% cabinet
be changed, the best informed Japan
ese believe that a new administration
would closely follow the emigration
policy of Minister Hayashi.
Lx-Ambassador Aoki, since his ar
rival in Tokio, hag not called on the
foreign offfce, nor has he submitted a
report on the situation at Washington,
but has assumed an attitude of uu
friendliness to Minister Hayashi, It
is believed that Aoki is joining the
forces opposing the foreign office.
JORDAN CLOSES BREACH,
Again Accepts Presidency of Cotton Asso
ciation and Forestalls Collapse.
Thursday night’s session of the exec
utive committee of the Southern Cot
ton Association at Dallas, Texas, de
veloped a factional contest, and what
threatened to develop a break in the
ranks of the association was adjusted
by the acceptance again of the presi
dency by Harvie Jordan, ¥
When the committee met to select
the president for the ensuing term
two candidates were proposed, Walter
Clark and E. D. Smith of South Caro
lina. Both of the candidates express
ed reluctance to accept the office.
Mr. Clark declared that the fight of
the association had been conducted
against great odds, without the sup
port of its beneficiaries, and urged the
temporary disbandment of the organ
izatlon. Clark predicted 8 cents cotton
for the coming season and thought
that the best interests of the associa
tion would be conserved if it should
temporarily go out of existence,
Finally, the two opposing candidates
withdrew in favor of Harvie Joydan,%
and he consented to serve for another
vear, !
The charge of failure to support the |
organization finally resulted 'in the
pledging of $6,000 as president’s sal
ary and general office expenses; each
state pledging SSO for every 100,000
baleg produced. ‘
