They won't go back to work. "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. First Train Leaves Augusta AUGUSTA, GA , Oct 3.—The first train on the Georgia railroad to leave Augusta since the beginning of the (■trike of conductors and trainmen de parted from the Union station this morning at 8:35 o’clock for Atlanta, just five minutes later than the regular scheduled time In charge of the en gine was Engineer John W. Perkins, of 345 Telfair street, Augusta, with his regular negro fireman The conductor and flagman were strikebreakers, who, arrived In the city late yesterday after noon over the Atlantic Coast Line from New York. A regular Pullman con ductor had charge of the Pullman chair 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 next to the engine, then three passen ger coaches, a mail car and at the rear of the train was a baggage car. Superintendent W S. Brand, of the Georgia railroad, reports that the train is going on Its way to Atlanta without molestation. Citizens of Harlem am! Thomson reported by long-distance tel ephone that no attempt was made to Tnoiest the strikebreaking flagman and conductor at those places Mr. Bran! paid that he could not say when he would run another train out. Seventeen persons, ten negroes and seven whites, were arrested today for refusing to disperse at the depot when ordered to do so. A large crowd gathered at the depot early this morning and all were in tensely interested onlookers as prep arations were made for the train to go out. Sheriff John W Clark and a num ber of deputies were present and First I.leute.nant George Britt, of the police department, had a half dozen officers on duty However, there wns not the slightest disorder.

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."

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.

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.

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 sons felt called upon to vote for my friends, Dr. Brown and Steve John ston, as well as many promises from a large number who failed to vote yes terday. ”1 am a progressive man and for pro gressive Atlanta and when elected mayor of this splendid city I shall do all in my powen to promote her prog ress and the happiness of her people.” The total vote, 9.404 of a registra tion of 13,890. was lighter than was ex pected, for the day was perfect ano there was every indication of intense interest.

The overwhelming victory of R. C. Turner was nothing short of a shock to a large element. The Georgia Railway and Power Company made no secret of its vigorous fight against him.

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. the old days people let these matters run until they needed a large dose nt physic, then they took someth'ne severe, like costor oil, salts or cathar tics, that meant abuse to the bowels These are the days of the gentle and' natural—the days of Syrup of Figs This way you are not drugging your self, Syrup of Figs being composed entirely of luscious figs, senna and aromatics can not cause injury.
