In open rebellion gainst their keepers, to-day made ar. attempt to destroy the entire Sing Bing prison property by fire. They set fire to the clothing manu facturing building, in which all the shoes, clothing and like articles are made. The fire was extinguished by the prison fire department after It had svept the shoeshop. The entire penal population Is be- Ug kept under lock in fear of further oitbreaks. Fir© Laid to Trusties. The attempt to burn the prison building came early to-day after a nifht of wild excitement in'the prison. When the warden, James H. Clan- cej, was told of the threats, he di rected that no prisoners, excepting the trusties, should be allowed out of their cells. It is believed that some of the trusties, acting under orders -f thex imprisoned fellows, applied the match to the clothing factory build ing. Ai the fire raged the criminals be hind locked doors set up a terrific din. The7 shouted “fire,” called vile names, beat their doors and made the prison hideous with noise. “We want Kennedy,” came the constant chant above the din. Protest Warden’s Removal. This protest against the removal of the former warden, who was Indicted by the Westchester County Grani Jury, was the keynote of the entire rebellion that for 36 hours has had the State’s largest penal institution in a state of mutiny. All night long the convicts kept up their riotous demonstration. They made the food the first basis of com plaint. They contemptuously tossed away bits of food and went to their cells surly and disobedient. Guards are on duty to-day all along the prison walls, the officers feaxing that the sullen convicts may make a concerted effort to escape. Seeking to relieve the perilous sit uation at the prison. Warden Clancey this afternoon made arrangements with the railroad to take 200 second and third term prisoners to Auburn to-morrow. With these riotous pris oners out of the way, the warden be lieves he can restore order in the in stitution. Lamar Indicted to Reach ’Higher Ups’ NEW YORK, July 24.—The Gov ernment’s real object in secretly in dicting David Lamar after his reve lations before the Senate Lobby In vestigating Committee was to fright en the “Wolf of Wall Street” into giv ing information in contemplated ac tion against the men higher up in Lamar’s impersonations. Men high in political and financial life are be lieved to have profited through La mar’s operations. AGED MEN INJURED. ELBERTON, July 24.—Martin Crawford, 62 years old, and James Bond, aged 60, came near losing their lives when Crawford’s mule team backed off the bridge over Coldwater Creek. Two of Crawford’s ribs and his breast bone were broken. Bond also had two ribs broken. Here’s Elsie Erd, a fair camper, at a little task that helps to break the monotony. ITALY HIT BY HURRICANES. Special Cable to The American. MILAN, ITALY, July 24.—Damage is being inflicted throughout the en tire Italian lake district, which is be ing swept by terrific hurricanes. . . T f Board at Work to Democrat Is Elected End Strike Deadlock Arkansas Governo! Government Plans End to Rebate Extortions Costing Lines $42,000,000 a Year. NEW YORK, July 24.—Hoping to end the deadlock and avoid the threatened strike of the 100,000 train men on the Eastern railroads, the Federal Board of Mediators to-day went into consultation with the men’s representatives Later the mediators will meet the railway managers. The deadlock is the result of the insistence of the employer?* that their grievances also be arbitrated at the same time the men’s demands are taken up. Swimming, Rambles in Woods, Auto Rides and Sleeping Outdoors Give New Lease on Life. BRADY’S BODY SENT TO U. S. LIVERPOOL, July 24.—The body of Anthony N. Brady, the American fin ancier, who diea in London, was placed aboard the Baltic, which sailed for America to-day. STONY CREEK FLOW SOUTH? NOBLESVILLE, IND., July 24.— Nine hundred pint and quart bottles of whisky and beer were dumped Into Stony Creek to-day by the Chief of Police. If you do not believe the simple life is conducive to better work, ask some of the heads of departments c. the Bell Telephone Company. They’ll tell you that since the establishment of Camp Wyanoke at Lakewood Heights, where the young women employees of the company spend their vacations and their week-ends, the work of the “hello girls.” the stenographers and the other young women who work in the big building at Mitchell and Pryor streets, has greatly improved. “The idea we had in mind when Camp Wyanoke was established.” Miss Katherine Tatum, who is* in charge of the camp, said, Thursday morning, “is working out splendidly. The girls come back to Atlanta after a few days or a week’s stay at the camp invigorated and almost with a new lease on life. They have breathed pure, fresh air; they' have worked about the camp, and they return to their work with a vim and a determi nation that is usually lacking during the hot summer months.” Simple Life Throughout. The simple life is* lived in all its phases at Camp Wyanoke. With the exception of the harder and unfa miliar work of cooking all the work is done by the girls. They wash dishes, wash their own clothing—or most of it—keep house. se\V and do a hundred and one other tasks. When work Is done they go swim ming and wading, or take long rides in the automobiles the company: pends out to them several times a week. Every Wednesday and Saturday nights there are dances and games of various kind*. The practice of sleeping in the open air is considered by Miss Tatum one of the best features of the camp. It gives many girls who heretofore have been cooped up in tiny city rooms* a chance to recuperate. Sunday School In Camp. Every girl employed by the com pany Is given a chance to taste the Joys of camp life. Those who had taken their vacations before the camp was installed have been given a leave of absence of three or four days, that they might visit the camp. Others spend their entire vacation there. There are always about twenty girls at the camp, and on Saturday and Sunday this number is sometimes swelled to a hundred, by the girls who come out to spend Sunday. Sunday school is held in the open air under the trees, and is usually attended by about a hundred young women. NEW G. S. AND F. AGENTS. MACON.—Howard C. Montague has been appointed commercial agent for the Georgia. Southern and Florida Railway’ at Chattanooga, vice James F. Slow’ey, resigned. Harold L. Peters Is appointed soliciting freight agent at Tampa, succeeding Mr. Montague. WASHINGTON, July 24.—The an swer of the Interstate Commerce Com mission to the application of the rail roads east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio and Potomac Rivers for permission to make a general in crease of 5 per cent In freight rates, will be as follows: 1. The application will be denied. 2. All railroads will be ordered to discontinue making “allowances” to certain favored big industrial com binations. This will save the general public from paying the additional $42,000,000 a year w’hich the railroads are asking for and deprive certain big industrial corporations of a sum ranging be tween $50,000,000 and $100,000,000 an nually. The Commission during the past few months has secretly made an in vestigation to determine Just the ex tent to w’hich the practice of making “allowances” to industrial short line railroads, bw’ned by manufacturing concerns, is prevalent. His Names and Facta. It is now in possession of the names of the concerns which receive these “allowances” or rebates, or dis criminatory’ rates—and in addition it has the names of the railroads which pay them, the amounts received by the favored industrial corporations and something of the extent to which the practice injures the competing manufacturers, who are not in a po sition to enter into such arrange ments. In a large number of inatanoes, it is claimed, the practice amounts to ex tortion. The railroads are compelled by the demands of competition to make allowances to the manufacturer for transferring his product over hie own insignificant trackage to the junction where the regular railroad takes up his cars. Where several railroads are bidding for such a man ufacturer’s business the one .which makes the most liberal allowance usually gets the freight To End the Extortion. In view of this fact It is expected that the answer which the commis sion will give the railroads will meet with their approval and co-operation, and will do away w’ith the most im portant of existing Improper prac tices without the. necessity of prose- 1 cution. The railroads are asking for the five per cent Increase on the ground /hat they must have increased rev enue to pay their large operating expenses, and particularly. to pay the higher wages demanded by their employees. The recent demands for higher wages w’ould take $17,000,000. Can Pay Wage Advance. Under the order which the Inter state Commerce Commission w-ill Is sue the railroads will get more than $42,000,000 by simply cutting off an Improper expense, and corresponding ly’, the favored trusts and combina tions which have been mulcting them of the amount will be deprived of It. The railroads will be placed In a position to pay their employees the living wage they demand, the danger of a huge strike will be avoided, and the whole thing will be accomplished without the shippers—and through them the general public—being re quired to pay more for the transpor tation of the necessities of life. Settlement Sought Of $14,000,000' Debt WASHINGTON, July 24.—A debt of $14,000,000, probably the largest dispute of a financial nature In the United States, will be the subject of a conference In this city to-morrow. Virginia Is trying to collect that amount from West Virginia and com missions representing the Legisla. tures of both States will meet here to-morrow and try to reach an agree ment. The debt arises out of West Vir ginia’s withdrawing from Virginia a half century ago and since refuting to pay for Improvements Virginia made.
