last night for Atlanta to endeavor to

While no statement would be made
by Vice Presidents Gregg and Murdock,
of the conductors and trainmen, respec
tively, in regard to the general strike
that is threatened, still they say they
are determined to maintain their or

lieving that system of the clamor of
shippers. Should they be ordered to go
into the yards of the Georgia road anti
move freights off its tracks It Is prob

has been handled by the strikebreaking
employees of the joint le minals for the

"Mt Wiekersham's published state

Injunction Hearing
At Macon Monday
MACON. GA.. Oct. ft. The Federal
injunction in the Georgia railroad
strike, signed by Judge W. I. Grubb in
Birmingham yesterday afternoon, was
recorded in the district court clerk's of
fice in Macon today. It will be de
termined Monday morning at II o’clock
at a hearing in Macon before Judge
Grubb, whether the order shall be
made permanent.
"All persons interested are com
manded to show cause at this time
why the injunction shall not be made
the permanent order of this court.” so
reads the order.
The order is specifically directed
against Horace Clary, Clary,
Lazenby, J. S. Fitzgerald. E. E. Gray.
Pierce B. King’ and all other persons to
whom notice of this restraining order
shall come."
It is stated here that effort will soon
!><• made to resume regular schedules
on the Georgia railroad, at least to the
extent of carrying the mails, and on
each train there will be a number of
special United States deputies, sworn
in by Marshal George White, of Ma
con.
Charges
By Strikebreakers.
Sonic of the affidavits made by strike
breaklng employees of the Georgia rail
road in support of that company's peti
tion so the injunction are truly sensa
i tional.
| W B. Booker, conductor, who left
Atlanta October 4 at 3:55 p. m.. in
charge of a passenger train accuses
Sheriff Clary, of McDuffie county, of
aiding and abetting’ a mob which
stopped the train at Dearing’. Con
ductor Booker says the mob was intent
on getting the conductor, and that
therefore he po-ed gs a passenger. He
says, however, that an auto was sent io
1 honison, eight miles distant, for the
son of Sheriff Clary and that he (Book
er) yvas identified by the younger Clary
as the conductor. Booker swears he
then appealed to the sheriff for protec
tion and that the sheriff said:
"Protection, hell; 1 hope they beat
you to death when they get you down
there across the tracks.”
Booker says the mob then took him
across the tracks and beat him fear
fully with knueks, billets, stones and
pistols, and that he escaped by running
away. He says he waited for the train
in tlie woods a mile from Dearing and
Hugged it by taking off his shirt, set
ting lie to it and waving it—it then
being dark.
Hanged to Rafters
By Harlem Mob.
S s Kenyon a conductor, says a
mob took him and Flagman Wilson
from the train at Harlem on Saturday,
dragged them into tile store of a man
named Wilson and strung them up over
tlie rafters, large *’<ipes being tied
around their necks As they were about
to lose consciousness by strangulation,
Kenyon say.-, they were cut down and
commanded to die like white men. They
were toil. Kenyon swears, that they
would hay. to run the gauntlet and
that as they began to run they were
beaten with pistols, sticks and stones,
ami tnat they were also fl:ed upon.
R \V Donovan, baggagemaster, says
that on October 5 Judge John W. Hart
defied n mob al Union Point and un
doubtedly saved his life. He says lie
I was horribly beaten, however, before
l.ludg. Hurt arrived and interceded. He

homes before they came to the hos
pital,” said Dr. Hancock in speaking of
the strike.
The girls all signed an ultimatum
which was delivered to the superin
tendent.
The ultimatum declared that the
telephone should be replaced and the
hour for them to report at night on
their two nights off should be 12 in
stead of 11 o'clock.
They declared that Miss Maud Gull
edge, the superintendent, did trot teach
them anything, but instead made the
older student nurses instruct the
younger ones. Two hours in 24 Uas
alolwed them to sleep when on special
cases, they charged. Often ore nurse
would have to serve the patients on
an entire nurse.
Strikebreakers Here
Jeered By the “Outs.”
AU the nurses gathered on the front
porch of the dormitory, adjoining the
hospital, and the strike this
morning and jeered the strikebreaking
nurses as they were brought in from
other hospitals. When Miss Matilda
Houser and Miss Maggie Edwards re
turned to work the. twelve other nurses
rose and threatened all sorts of dire
things.
"Just wait till tonight." they said.
'We'll duck 'em in the bathtub and
do all sorts of things to 'em. They're
just scabs, the horrid things, and they
signed that paper, too."
The remaining twelve w ill take lunch
at a restaurant at noon, they said, just
at the time they were ordered to re
port or to forever remain away.
"We don't care whether we go back
or not." said one. ‘Til bet this is the
first time you ever saw so many women
stay of the same mind for such a long
time.”
Dr. Hancock said that no other
nurses' dormitory in town was sup
plied with a telephone and he saw no
reason why his nurses should have one.
They receive better pay that, the ma
jority of nurses, he declared.
lie said the dormitory is a training
school and not a place for spooning,
which, he phone was chiefly
used for.
"If they had any spare time, they
should be studying instead of talking
over the phone to some silly boy," he
said. "If they return by 12 o'clock, we
will be glad to have them, but if they
do not come in by that time they can
never come back. We can get plenty
of other nurses from other place® in
the city."
There are twenty patients in the
hospital and several strikebreaking"
nurses were brought in to wait upon

BROWN FOR ALL OF ’EM
Both candidates for the mayoralty
nomination today* claim the support of
Dr. George Brown, one of the mayoralty
candidates defeated in the first pri
mary.
They* produced signed statements
from Dr. Brown favoring the candi
dacy* of both Aldine Chambers and
James C. Woodward.
The signing of the statement con
cerning Chambers was witnessed by*
them. At 12 o’clock today a full quota
of nurses will be procured if she strik
ers do not return. During the early
part of the morning the wives of two
house physicians helped to nurse.
Here is the nurses' ultimatum:
"In view of the fact that we have,
since our acceptance in this training
school, given our best efforts and have
tried to do honest, faithful work, we,
the pupil nurses of the Atlanta Train
ing school, ask that our telephone be
replaced and that our late hour be
extended to 12 o'clock one night during
each month. Unless we get a favora
ble reply, we will each tender our res
ignation.”
The signers are Miss Dunman, Miss
Wade. Miss Session, Miss Armstead,
Miss Plunket. Miss Cochran, Miss
Burch, Miss Houser, Miss Tyson. Miss
Edwards. Miss Payne. Mrs. Byrd. Miss
Morehead and Miss Strickland. Miss
Houser and Miss Edwards went back
to work.
Sadder But Wiser
Little Girls Now.
Exactly at noon, the time limit set
by Dr. Hancock for their return to
work, all the girls reported at the hos
pital with the white caps on their
heads.
"We've decided to come back." one
of them meekly remarked.
"You understand that you will not
be allowed to use the telephone noi
will you be allowed to stay out later
than 11:15?” Dr. Hancock asked.
“Yes, sir, we understand.”
And with that the twelve girls took
up the task of ministering to patients,
their strike of five hours at an end.
"The strike will not be held against
the nurses." declared Dr. Hancock this
afternoon. "They were simply mis
taken and realized their mistake.”

Carlos H. Mason, chairman ot the city

cian, both of whom said they voted for
Dr. George Brown in the first primary,
but who are now for Mr. Chambers.
The statement is in the form of an in
terview.
Asks Support For Chambers.
After thanking his friends for their
support and declaring that the cam
paign has left no feeling of bitterness
in him, the statement, dated October 9,
sas*s among other things:
A great many of my friends are
warm supporters of M . Chambers,
and w'hile I do not know him very*
well, I am thoroughly* satisfied that
the affairs of this city* would be
safe and secure in his hands; and,
as I said before. I will not and do
not presume to dictate to any of
my* friends what they shall do.
It is my belief that the welfare
of the city of Atlanta requires Al
dine Chambers’ election on the 15th
ot October next. I would like to
see my friends support him.
(Signed) GEORGE BROWN.
The other statement is a letter to
Mr. Woodwatd, pledging his vote and
support. It is dated October 4. but Mr.
Woodward said it was not to be made
public until today. It says in part:
Pledges Aid to Woodward.
I wish to thus publicly* notify* you
and my friends that I shall openly
and earnestly support you In the
primary election that has been call
ed for the loth inst.
Your plurality of nearly 600
votes was so decisive that It would
seem to me that you ought to be
given the nomination without fur
ther effort or discord. The law
that makes another election possi
ble applies to no other city in Geor
gia but Atlanta, and my recollec
tion is that the people by* over 1,000
majority requested that the law be
repealed.
I again want to assure you of my
earnest support, and will aid you
in your campaign in any way pos
sible, and I earnestly hope and re
quest that my many friends who so
loyally stood by me will give y*ou
the same kind of support in the
coming election.
