UNIONS IN STRIKE
HEARING GM
VICTORIES
Judge Chambers Declares He
Will Not Allow Real Issues
To Be Beclouded.
Union leaders stored what they con
sider a victory in several points today
at the third day’- session of the arbiters
in the Georgia railroad strike. Judge
William L. Chambers announced that
the board decided that the
only bulletin to be considered in the
evidence was that issued November 14.
1911, prescribing how the 16-hour law I
should he complied with: that the board i
would consider that trainmen under- '
stood the bulletin to mean that they
should stay on duty 16 hours and then
go off duty, even if the expiration of the
Time caught them at such a point that
they would have to proceed on to the
next station or stop; that no more ex
traneous testimony should be intro
duced tending to waste time, and that
no more questions be put to witnesses
on the distance between Conyers and
Lithonia, except to an expert whom the
road wyxets to summon. On all these
points the board was unanimous, and
<the' desire seemed to be to hurry
through, so that the question of wheth
er or not Conductor Paschal violated
the bulletin could he determined.
Can’t Becloud Issue.
James .Murdock, of the union forces,
declared that it was the evident pur
pose of the road officials to becloud the
actual facts with a lot of extraneous
testimony, but Judge chambers said:
"Well, if that is what they're trying,
they won't succeed."
Mr. Murdock reiterated his charge,
made from the beginning, that ulterior
motives caused the dismissal of Con
ductor Paschal, and the claim that Pas
chal did not violate the bulletin. This
bulletin was issued additional to a bul
letin of 1908, which set forth the pro
visions of the federal law, which pro
hibited employees working more than
18 hours continuously. In the old bul
letin there was no provision, it is stated,
for getting rid of trains caught be
tween points by the expiration of time,
bu the new one made such provisions,
as follows:
"To engineers, Trainmen, firemen and
< 'onductors:
,comply with the hours of serv
ice law, the period of duty should be
computed from the time the employee
actually goes on duty to the time he is
relieved of his engine or train, if a
train is caught without instructions on
the main line at any point by the ex- ,
pfration of the 16-hour period, the crew |
will place the train on the sidetrack, go ■
off duty and report action to the dis
patcher.
"XV. S. BRAND, Superintendent."
Brand Defends Road.
This means, according to the union
jeaders, that It Is Impossible at times to
comply with the rule, since a man
caught between Stations after working
16 hours would have to go on to a stop
where he could sidetrack his train The
company, on the other hand, Interpret.-
the rule to mean that the men must
take time out of 16 hours to perform
such feat.
Mr. Brand made for the first time a
vigorous defense of the road, declaring
that in only four cases hail an inspectot
of the interstate commerce commission
found grounds for Federal sulf grow
ing out of violations.
The railroads scored a point by the
exclusion of a Southern railway engi
neer. put up as a witness by the unions,
the court holding that his evidence
would be merely cumulative.
A message to M. Shedd, a Georgia
engineer, was read which ordered the
engineer to proceed with his train in
regardless of the 16-hour law. There
were several other witnesses ami point!
already covered were rehearsed.

Competition in Waltz Contest
So Keen Judges Have to
Make Two Awards.
There are tired toes in Atlanta to
day. There are likewise
of an evening’s gayety in many a mind.
And when a person passing down the
street is heard muttering to himself,
don’t call the constabulary. He is
harmless. His lips are Just responding
to the thought that is pounding away
in his brain’. It’s singing. "How that
girl could dance!” and he can’t keep
from vocal utterance. He was at the
Elks charity ball at Taft hall last night
and he won’t quit muttering for a week.
The ball was the climax of the Kir
mess season. It was a fitting climax.
For weeks in rehearsals and almost a
Miss Nelly Ozburn and Dick Speer doing the Boston Dip
week in performance the dancers of last
night had been dancing and prancing
for the joy of others*. At the charity
ball they danced for their own pleasure,
but for the pleasure, too, of the needy
of Atlanta.
When they were in stageland they
had "merry-widowed,” and "turkey
trotted,” and ‘‘yama-yamad,’- and dor.i
all the other steak steps know n to Terp
sichore and a few that divinity never
heard of. But when they danced for
their own enjoyment they returned to
the safe, sane and conservative, just
like the people of the I’nited States in
the last election.
They waltzed and two-stepped until
late, but the merriment never flagged
if sometimes a tired tripper did. The
dancing contests were alj spirited and
there iva« no lack of an abundance of
entries. The judges’had their troubles
in deciding and finally voted to give
the waltz prize to two couples. The
winners were Miss Justine Henderson
and Billy Morgan and Miss Theodora
Wa ti’dd and Eugene Trader.
Mrs. John Edgar McKee, who sang
the Bohemian Girl role tn the Kirmess.
was chosen queen of the Vestal Virgins
and led the grand march, which was
the principal feature of the ball.
