introduced a bill to amend the Sher

vision to define more accurately tlie
acts constituting a trust or monopoly
in restraint of trade; to make all
persons who conspire to monopolize

Atlanta railroad freight to-
j day received notices that the movo-
j ment of freight, tied up by the flood.
I Southward from the important ship
ping points ftlong the Ohio River, in-
| eluding Cincinnati, has begun, and
j that within a week all trains will be
running on schedule time. At the
offices of the Southern it was stated
that more than 200 cars of freight
consigned to Atlanta proper, held at
Cincinnati and other points by the
flood, will be in the local yards within
a week or ten days. Twenty of them
came in yesterday and to-day.
The movement of freight out of
Cincinnati across the Ohio River : s
slow, but Is being hastened as fast as
repairs can be made. Freight is mov
ing out of Louisville and St. Louis for
Southern points, however, on schedule
time.
Statements similar to this were
made at the offices of other railroads
entering Atlanta. It is estimated that
the flood held back about 800 cars of
freight consigned to business houses
in Atlanta and vicinity.
The wholesale grain dealers' say
there is less grain in the city than
there has been for years, and the
shortage, occasioned by inability to
get shipments across the Ohio River,
has caused an advance in price of
, from 6 to 8 cents a bushel.

were the heroines,

suddenly last night, and Miss Harriet

That there was no occasion for
Miss Lane and Miss Rowan becom
ing angered and leaving their posi
tions was the opinion of Mrs. Har
ris, who issued a statement consider
ably at variance with that of the i
young women. She scouted the idea
of an investigation.
No Reason for Inquiry.
"I can see no reason for an inves
tigation,” she said. "We already are :
in possession of the facts.
"Miss Lane and Miss Rowan have
resigned. That is all there is to it. !
There Will be no effort to get them
back. Their places will be filled at
the regular meeting of the board this

‘‘They were unduly excited when |
they thought they saw a burglar last
night. They created a great stir and
were the cause of a preposterous I
scare for which there appears to have
been.no basis.

"Then they all lost their tempers
when they were advised by the su
perintendent to keep cool. The whole
affair is regrettable.”
Attendants Still Angry.
Miss Lane and Miss Rowan were
indignant when seen to-day. They j
maintained they had been in- 1

Miss Bradner, who had laughed at
the idea of a burglar, even though
there had been a real burglar Mon- .

the home last night and are at the
residence of Miss Rowan. 695 White- j
hall Street.
Miss Lane and Miss Rowan went j
to the home this morning, but did not
make any charges against Miss Brad- j
ner to the board of governors, accord
ing to Mrs. Dan Harris, chairman.
“At the meeting of the board this j
morning we simply accepted their j
resignations and will put other young !
ladies in their places,” said Mrs. Har
ris. "There was no ‘strike’ as report- j
ed. They did not appear before the )
board or make any complaint, and we
have regarded the incident as a lit- j
tie matter.”

Business education is the present-
day necessity!
"Can you write shorthand or keep
a set of books?" the applicant for a
position is asked by the business man.
“Where were you taught business?”
is about the second question usually
propounded.
Young man, young woman, think,
and think seriously. Consider well
these two questions.
Young Coleman came to Atlanta
from the North and walked the
streets for three months looking for
a position, but without success. Sev
eral business men. on whom he called,
advised him to take a cour: e in the
Southern Shorthand and Business
University of this city.
He thought; he acted. ✓
The result:
After a three-months’ course, the
Southern placed him with a railroad
company as stenographer at $50 per
month to begin. Mr. Coleman was
ambitious, worked to please, and he is
now drawing a fine salary.
If you want a position, you’ll have
to take a business course sooner or
later; then. why not noxV?
Don’t postpone longer such an im
portant matter.
"If you have a diploma from the
Southern Business University I will
give you a position,” said a prominent
business man to a young fellow ap
plying for a job.
The Southern is an old school-
been running 47 years’ has a large
faculty; teaches the best known sys
tems of shorthand, bookkeeping, etc.
Ulenty of typewriters on which to
practice seventy-five; think of it!
Its graduates send other students,
40 of them, however, are not ready

it so that the Executive might es
