"What will happen down the road?
Don't ask me. But maybe some of our
friends down the line, and we’ve got
a-plenty, will climb on board and per
suade the strikebreakers to climb off.
If they don’t come peaceably, that’s
another question.”
J. H. Chapman, trainmaster. ar
rived from Augusta a day or two ago
to take charge of the local situation,
and was busy on the Job today. He
was all over the station, getting his
crew together, superintending the mak
ing up of the train, seeing that things
were kept running smoothly. Nobody
tried to interfere with him. In fact,
strikers and road officers mixed freely
under the shed without friction The
strikers made no effort to stop the
train's going out, except to persuade
the strikebreakers not to go.
There was not a passenger in sight
on the train as it pulled out. If the
road's men were armed their guns were
pot In sight. The coaches were empty
and the mall car appeared to be the
only thing of importance in the train.

New York. A regular Pullman con

car. The train carried mail to various
points along the road which have had
no mail since the beginning of the
strike The pouches were heavy be
cause of the accumulation of mall.
The train went out with the Pullman

of the train was a baggage car.

train moved out-there was not even a
jeer or a hiss. The train taken out to
day was the last that came In from At
lanta Tuesday night.
The Georgia railroad strike situation
is unchanged In so far as their being
any prospect of an immediate adjust
ment.
Judge Martin A. Knapp, of the Unit
ed States commerce court; United
States Labor <'ommlssioner Neil and
State Commissioner of Commerce and
Labor H M. Stanley are expected in
the city late this afternoon and an
attempt will he made to mediate or
arbitrate.
Both the management of the railroad
and the officials representing the men
on strike have indicatgd that they
would be glad to hold a conference
looking toward a settlement. The strike
Is assuming serious proportions and
business Is at n standstill on the Geor
gia railroad, while cotton In the local
yards of the Georgia needs handling at
once.
Hits Towns Hard.
With the strike liable to continue for
several days, at least, matters will be
come extremely serious for towns along
the line of the road. Washington.
1 homson, Sparta and other towns that
have no railroad connection save the
Georgia will be In serious need of sup
plies.
Assistant Grand Chief Burgess, of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi
neers. will arrive In the city some time
today to look Into the strike situation
from the engineers’ point of view. A
fireman’s representative has been here
for two days. The engineers have stat
ed that they will be neutral in their
attitude.
Vice President T. A Gregg, of the
order of Railway Conductors, stated
this afternoon that both he and Vice
President James Murdock, of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
would be glad to have a conference
with Messrs. Knapp and Nell looking
toward a settlement of the differences.
Blames Scott For Strike.
Mr. Gregg said the Georgia railroad
strike might have been prevented had
he and Mr. Murdock been able to com
municate with General Manager Scott.
’’During our three weeks of negotia
tions.” said Mr. Gregg, "we sent no
less than seven letters and telegrams
to Mr. Scott and we received a direct
reply from none of them. We received
an indirect reply through Superinteml
ent Brand to only one of our communi
cations. To the communication which
we addressed to Mr. Scott a short time
before the strike, and, which I think,
would have prevented the strike, there
was no reply at all.
"On Tuesday, the day of the strike,
we sent two special messengers to Mr.
Scott's room at the Piedmont hotel in
Atlanta and he refused to see the mes
sages or the messenger*. Word was
sent that he was sick in bed and could
not see any one. Our messages were
to the effect that the men had voted
to strike and would go out that even
ing at 6:30 o’clock However. I have
a letter from Atlanta which states that
Mr. Scott was able to be out Wednes
day. I can not understand why he
was able to be out of doors yesterday
and was too 111 tp see any one the day
before I feel sure that had Mr. Scott
conferred with us there would have
been no strike."

Lilt Langtry, the "Jersey Lily, who is back in America
for a vaudeville tour. She is preaching “picturesque and
cheerful’’ clothes for men.
Revival of Styles of Early 50’s
Embellished by Staggering
“Color Schemes.”
NEW YORK. Oct. 3.- Lily Langtry,
the Jersey Lily, is back In America,
after a lonely absence of six years, and
she is just as youthful as In the days
of yore. Perhaps she has discovered
the secret of eternal youth in her mot
to, “color and sunshine.”
Mrs. Langtry says men are growing
wiser and will discard the old "conven
tional black" and somber browns and
grays for bright colors. Purples and
greens and yellows, even reds, she pre
dicts for fashions sartorial.
"I have gone so fa- as to organize a
club for the purpose of making men
wear picturesque and cheerful clothing
The success of tancy dress balls is
proof that men are fond of bright col
ors and enjoy wearing them. Side
whiskers have returned, and the stock
and ruffled shirt are being worn,” said
Mrs. Langtry.
Gotham "Beats Her to It.”
And 10l even as she spoke, New York
has burst into a rainbow of tints Hab
erdashers and tailors say the Jersey
Lily was behind time with her advice,
that New York "beat her to It."
An expert strolled down the avenue
the other day and sauntered into Sher
ry’s. the Waldorf, the Ritz. Plaza and
other spots of allurement to the ultra
fashionable male. What he saw in
some of those places, ns afterward re
lated. certainly disputes the Je’.>, \
Lily's vision of the somber gloom as
the American dresser For instance,
at Sherry’s his attention was directed
to this:
The man wore a shapely gray stick
suit, white waisleoat. white spats, gray
derby. There was a rolled collar of
broad lavender, crossed strii>ed shirt,
again a great fold-over svnrf of deep
purple, double barred with white.
Vision in Black and White.
Quite fetching, what"
Nothing startled him very much at
the Waldorf. Rut when he started
through the Ritz and entered’the Carl
ton Hall there apepa't-d a perfect vis
ion in black and white.
This study in contrasts was thusly
attired:
One-button cheviot sacque over a
single-breasted white knitted cloth
waistcoat, trousers of dark gray chev
iot, striped in black: black buttoned
calf shoes, topped with black high
crowned derby Black scarf, with pear]
pin, black wangee sth-k. with flat ovai
silver head, bearing gobi m noglam
The sacque was -cut to the figure,"
with slight drapers in the buck -a re
vival of a style favored in the early
fifties and again during the seventies
An overcoat was of lightish him mel

JUDGE NAT HARRIS
OF MACON RESIGNS;
PLEADS ‘TOO BUSY’
Judge Nat Harris, of the Macon su
perior court, presented his resignation
in person to Governor Brown Joday.
Judge Harris gave as his reasons
personal business, and said that by re
signing now he would avoid disqualify
ing the incoming judge and solicitor in
many cases to come to the January
term of the Macon circuit court.
The governor named the newly elect
ed Judge, H. A. Matthews, to succeed
Judge Harris, and. this creating an
immediate vacancy in the solicitor gen
eralship of the Maeon circuit, the gov
ernor named the newly elected solicitor,
John P. Ross, to that office.
Judge Harris’ resignation merely
started the new judge and solicitor to
work three months ahead of the be
ginning of the terms to which they
were elected yesterday.

"Now that the issue is clearly drawn
between Mr. Woodward’s record and
my own. I feel confident of victory
upon the day which will be set by the
executive committee.
“I already have been assured of the
support of hundreds who for good rea

The overwhelming victory of R. C.

Thomas Evans was an easy winner
over S. B. LaSalle for re-election as
city warden. He got 6,721 votes, and
LaSalle got 2,249.
All the talk today is how the votes
of Johnston and Brown will go in the
next primary.
The general opinion is that Broun
drew principally from Woodwards
strength and that Johnston drew prin
cipally from Chambers’ strength.
Provided all the supporters of Wood
ward and Chambers remain loyal in the
second primary, Woodward must get
431 votes out of the 1,363 combined
votes erf Brown and Johnston. Cham
bers must get 1,028 more votes to be
nominated.

These are the days of the gentle and'

This way you are not drugging your
self, Syrup of Figs being composed
entirely of luscious figs, senna and

Ask your druggist for "Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna,” and look
for the name, California Fig Svrun
Company, on the label. This is the
genuine—old reliable. Anv other so
called Fig Syrup Is an imitation often
meant to deceive you. Refuse such
with contempt. (Advt )
