Time and time again he tried to make landings, but each time the blast was too strong. He had been carried ten miles before he finally succeeded in coming to earth.

The board of arbiters in tlie Georgia railroad strike met this morning at 10 o’clock in the Federal building to begin argument in the cases of the union workmen. Conductor Paschal and Flag man Morgan, who were discharged by th? railroad for alleged infraction of the rules. The main fight hinges on the case of the conductor, because he is charged with having worked longer than six teen hours in violation of the Eederal law and a bulletin of the railroad. Tlie contention of the labor unions'will be that Paschal did not violate the letter of the law. while the contention of the railroad will be that he violated the spirit of it “The bulletin issued by the road said in effect that no conductor should op erate a tram longer than sixteen hours on the main line," said F. A. Burgess today. "Mr. Paschal took his train off the main line onto a siding and thus conformed to the rules. If he worked longer on a sidetrack h> did not violate the letter < f the ruling. Tlie Federal act prohibiting employees of railroads to work longer than sixteen continuous hours w'as passed several years ago to safeguard the public from accidents which it would be Impossible for sleepy, employees to avoid." The road holds on the other hand, that in working longer than sixteen hours cn main line or off of it Conduc tor Paschal violated the rules. Charles A. Wickershnm will represent this side and Hon. William L. Chambers Will umpire. There is no fight, said Mr. Burgess, over terminals. Whether counsel is to be employed will be decided early. The unions de not think it necessary.
