United States Com missioner of Labor Neill left Augusta last night for Atlanta to endeavor to bting about a settlement of the At lanta Joint Terminal’ employees ques tion. 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 ganizations It is g -netally understood that a strike can i,e declared without the formalities of balloting by the con ductors and trainmen of all the roads entering Atlanta. freight over their lines whicli have been diverted f om the Georgia, thereby* re 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 able’ they would refuse. AT. such freight has been handled by the strikebreaking employees of the joint le minals for the past few days. The Atlanta joint ttrmina's. cpm-I posed of th. West Point, the Louisville] and Naslivil -■ and the Georgia road, r >- fused yesterday afternoon tej take back tin tn employe, s who went out when the trainmen struck. This is the last bom- of conten'tion. Th.* unions hold that the terminal employees are a part of the lr union and their strike was not I a sy input lieli. " one, as c harged by of ficials of th.' terminals. The officials insist tmi t the Georgia strike was mine of the business of the terminal ent ployees and they should not have gone out. Strike at Terminal Not. Sympathetic. "Mt Wiekersham's published state ment that lite terminal strike was a sympathetli one Is not in accordance with the facts," said Mr. Sines today. "We do not go on sympathetic strikes. “The trainmen and conductors have not engaged in a stiike of any magni tude in seven years, except th.u or. tile Gtand Trunk two years ago. We do not w ant strike s yy hen we can avoid I hem ' The question as to hoyc fat the gov ernment injunction against interfer ence with mails will protect pa-senger ti.ains is a knotty one It is anticipated that the road ycill take advantage? of the injuuetiem to attempt to operate trains bearing pa-seitgets, baggage and express, as well as mails, it Is aven possible that a freight train might be sent out with one" bag of mail in the ca boose. The Injunction also e civet s interfei ence yvlth interstate freight, which in cludes practically everything. It has been ruled by the courts that one package of freight destined for a point beyond the boundaries of the state con. stitutes an interstate movement for the whole train of ears bearing that pack age The unions have protested bit terly against such a construction of the la w Sheriff t'.

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 | says Judge Hart alone* braved a mob of I 200 pe sons ■ ■ ■ .!■ Train Mobs To Be Indicted Indictment by the I'eiLra! grand jury I of many persons living along the Geor i gin railroad who have been guilty of I slopping trains and otherwise delaying th.- United States mail will probably j tak ■ place either this week or next.

Continued From Page One. 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 - - "IL.L!_ "I""' "Law Brothfrt for Quality" Imported | Velour Hats i F'o refined e■••nance th* imported Velour* are unsurpassed In ne > Ka !

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.

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.
