Although the smallest field that ever < oinpeted for the classic, the class of cars entered, the thrills promised and f‘i sinister warning conveyed by the death of Bruce-Brown have made the race one of the most attractive ever held. Nearly < ' erybody at the course has a favorite in the race, and each driver ..as to start knowing he hud a host of friends ready to wag( r on his chances lof winning.

Mr. Johnston and Dr. Brown have 1 conducted very quiet hut. they believe, very effective campaigns. Almost equaling the mayoralty con test in bitterness is the race between R. Turner, city electrician, and Fred Miles Mr Miles formerly was city electrician and resigned. This race is very close, according to all appear ances. Tut tier declares that the Georgia Railway and Power Company is back ing Miles to beat him because he has had the nerve to attack tin- company-.

About 300 men are said to be af fected by the order and it is reported that every man went nut/ .Can’t Say When j Trains Will Run. The strike was caused by the dis charge some months ago of Conductor J. I Paschal, of Atlanta, on the charge < hat he violated the sixteen-hour labor law by alloxving his engineer to take his train to its destination after the expiration of sfxte-n hours of continu ous service instead of side-tracking it and reporting to the dispatcher. The union demands the reinstatement of Paschal, with full pay for the time he was laid off, and the railroad official’ refused to accede to this demand. "When can I get a train to Augusta?" [the ticket agent was asked today. i "You’d better take the Central to [Millen and change there for Augusta." | was the answer. "Can't say w hen we’ll I have a train out.” Any chance of a Georgia train to | day? How about going as far as Ll ; thonia ?” "Nothing doing, returned the agent, | “Sorry. <'an't say when service will be I ■'•?!orecl.” Not a Sign of Strikebreaker Here.

He said No. 27. from Augusta, arriving las: night at 8:20 o’clock, had been the last ttain into Atlanta, and none had gone out since theg "The trainmen finished every run which started before the strike order at 6:30 o clock,” he said. "No pa.-senge.s were left stranded in the trains. I think the road still hopes lot a settle ment.” Not more than a dozen striking em ployees were in the vicinity of the sta tion. Those interviewed were reticent. They said they had quit and wouldn't go back until ordered by the union, and the union would not give up until it had won its point. They did not think there would be any violence or disorder. Union Wont Stand For Rough Tactics. "We ate not that kind." they said. "Our union won't stand for destroying property.” A number of Atlanta strikers held a meeting at their looms in Alabama street early today, discussed the situa tion and laid plans for a long lay-off. should the strike be prolonged. There was no official action for them to take, for the strike is being handled by the union officials at Augusta, the head quarters of the road. The railway mail station at the de pot is filled with pouches waiting for train service. Mail for Augusta and other points where there are two roads is being routed by the Central, the Sea board and other systems, but pouches for local points along the Georgia road are being held for a resumption of I set vice.
