July 20.—Dr. Julian Thomaa, formerly of Atlanta. Oa., to. day In telling of the balloon trip ha made with his wife and Roy Knnben- ahue yesterday from the gaa works In the Bronx, said: "Our lnt>» ('no IltimlrfMl and Sixth street was only an undesirable Incident. We would never have come to earth If the men below had let the drag rope alone. We shouted to them, but they did not hear us. “While Knabenshue and Mra.

Although the balloonists were constantly In peril, Mrs. Thomas declared the experience was perfectly grand. SENA IE MAKES MERRY WITH CR A WF WHEAT LEY MANY APPOINTMENTS Though the present session of the general assembly is a third over, Gov ernor Terrell has not sent In any of his appointments, except the vacation .ppolntments, which were confirmed by Ihe senate at the beginning of the aes- ilon. The governor has some forty-five (ppolntments to make, solicitors of city courts and such. In several places, notably Newnan, Dublin, Swalnesboro tnd Hawk Irani lie, heated contests are on for the sollcltorshlp of the city courts. It Is particularly warm over In Coweta, where W. G. Post, the en cumbent, is being opposed by W. L. Stalling. The two have filed with the governor near two thousand letters of Indorsement. Just when the governor will begin tending In some of his appointments is not known, but he Is taking his own lime for It and not worrying. He Is letting the candidates do that. Will Organize Club. Special to The Georgian. Opelika, Ala., July 20.—The question of organizing a commercial club for Opelika has been agitated fdr some time, and from the present outlook It Is probable that such an - organization will be effected at an early date. FOR THOMASVILLE Special to The GeorfUn. Thoraaaville, Go., July 20.—Another railroad will likely be built from Ttaom- asvlllo to Sparks In tho near future. Captain E. M. Smith, president of tho Bank of Thomasvllle, together with several prominent Thomasvllle and Pavo business men, are behind the project and It now seems that the road will be built. If such Is the case. It will go through tho beBt section of the country In the state, touching the towns of Pavo, Adlal, Hemstead, Qullp and ending at Sparks, where connection will be made with the Georgia. South ern and Florida and the Nashville and Sparks. This will also be instrumental In opening up a direct line from the timbered aectlon of the state to Au gusta by connecting with the Williams Interests. Another road In addition to the Thomasvllle and Sparks road Is being surveyed for a line Into Florida which will ultimately reach the gulf. This, with tho other railroads, will make Thomasvllle the center of a network of railroads that will have through con** nectlons with the gulf, Atlantic and all Inland points. $....

BIG STRIKE IN PACKINGTOWN-JURGIS PROVES FALSE TO UNION Stock Yards and Surrounding Territory Turned Into a . Veritable Hades. CHAPTER XXVI (Continued). "But—but”—stammered Jurgls. He had somehow taken It for granted that he should go out with hla union. "The packers need good men, and heed them bod,” continued tho other, and they'll treat a man right that Hands by them. Why don't you take your chance and fix yourself?” "But," aald Jurgls, "how could I ever he of any use to you—In politics 7" "You couldn't be It, anyhow," said Scully, abruptly. , "Why not?" asked Jurgls. Hell, mant” cried the other. "Don’t you know you're a Republican? And do you think I’m always going to sleet Republicans? My brewer has found out already how we served him, and Iherc la the deuce to pay." Jurgls looked dumbfounded. He had never thought of that aapect of It be fore. "i could be a Democrat,” he said. tea," responded the other, "but not fight away; a man can't change his politics every day. And, besides, I dent need you—there'd be nothing for you to do. And lt'i a long time to elec tion day, anyhow; and what are you Solng to do meantime T" t thought I could count on you,” began Jurgls. _ responded Scully, "so ycu could—j never yet went back on a mend. But IS It fair to leave the Job { got you and come to me for another? j h»ve had a hundred fellow# after me today, and what can I do? I've put •cventeen men on the city pay roll to streets this on* week, and do you think i can keep that up forever? It “'’didn't do for me to tell other men 1 toll you, but you’ve been on the inside and you ought to have oense •tough to ses for yourself. - What have you to gain by a striker' 1 hadn’t thought,” said Jurgls.

And Jurgls »oA\ He went back to the yards, and Into the workroom. The men had left a long line of hogs In various stages of preparation; and the foreman was directing the feeble efforts of a score or two of clerks and ste nographers and office boys to finish up th* Job and get them into the chilling rooms. Jurgls went straight up to him ahd announced: "I have come back to work, Mr. Murphy." "The boss’ face lighted up. "Good man!” he cried. "Come ahead!” "Just a moment," said Jurgls, check lng his enthusiasm. "I think I ought to get a little more wages.” "Ye#,” replied the other, "of course. What do you want?" Jurglt had debated on the way. Ills nerve almost failed him now, but hs clenched his hands. '1 think I ought to have |1 a day," hs said." "All right,' 4 sold tbs other, promptly, and before the day was out our frland discovered that the clerks end stenog raphers and office boys were getting $5 a day, and then he could have kicked himself. On the first day of his life as a strike-breaker Jurgls quit work early, and In a spirit of bravado bs challenged three men of his acquaintance to go outside and get a drink. They ac cepted, and went through the big Hoi sted street gate, where several police men were watching, and also some union pickets, scanning sharply those who passed in and out Jurgls and his companions went south on Hoisted street, past the hotel, and then sud denly half a dozen men started across the street toward them and proceeded to argue with them concerning the er ror of their way*. As the arguments were not taken in the proper spirit they went on to threats; suddenly one of them Jerked olf th* hst of on* of the four and flung It over the Unct. The man started after It, and then, oa a cry of "Scab!” was raised and a dozen persons cams running out of sa loons and doorways, a second man's heart foiled him and fie followed. Jur gls and tha fourth stayed long enough to give themselves the satisfaction of a quick exchange of blows, and then they, too, took to thslr heels and fled bock of the hotel and Into the yards again. ^Meantime, of course, policemen were coming on a run, and as a crowd gath ered, other police got excited and sent In a riot calL Jurgls knew nothing of this, but went back to "Packers' ave nue," and In front of the "Central Time Station” be saw one of his compan ions. breathless and wild with excite ment, narrating to an ever-growing throng how the four had been attacked and surrounded by a howling mob, and had been nearly torn to pieces. While hs stood listening, smiling cynically, several dapper young men stood by with note books In thslr hands, and It was not more than two hours later that Jurgls saw newsboys running about red and black letters six Inches high: VIOLENCE IN THE 8T0CK YARDS! STRIKE-BREAKERS SUR ROUNDED BY FRENZIED MOBI If he had been able to buy all of tho newspapers of the United States tho next morning he might have discovered that his beer-hunting exploit was be ing perused by some two-score millions of people, ond hod Borved as a text tor editorials In half the staid and solemn business men's newspapers In tho Innd. Jurgls was to see more of this as time passed. For tha moment, his work being over, he was free to ride Into tli.- city. Icy u railroad direct from tlm yards, or else to spend the night In a room where cots had been laid In rows. Ha choso the latter, but to his regret, for all night long gangs of strike breaker* kept arriving. As very few of the better class of workingmen could be got for such work, these specimens Of the- new Amt-ilcnn hero .mntnlncd no assortment of tin, criminals on,I thugs of the city, besides nogroes and the. lowest foreigner*—Greeks,Rouma nians, Sicilians and Slovaks. They had been attracted more by the prospect of disorder than by the big wages; and they made tha night hideous with sing ing and carousing, and only went to sleep when the time cams for them to get up to go to work. In the morning, before Jurgls had finished his breakfast, "Pat" Murphy ordered him to one of the superintend ents, who questioned him os to his eg- perlencs In the work of the killing room. His heart began to thump with excitement, for he divined Instantly that his hour had come—that hs was to be a boss! Some of the foreman were union members, and many who were not had gone out with the men. It was In the killing deportment that the packers had been left most In the lurch, and prc- clsely bare that they could least afford It; the amoklng and conning and salt ing of meat might wait, and all the by-products might be wasted—but fresh meats must be had, or the re*, taurants and hotels and brownstone houses would feel the pinch and then "public opinion" would take a startling turn. An opportunity such as this would not come twice to a man; and Jurgls seised It. Yes, he knew the work, the whole ot It, and he could teach It to others. But If he took the Job *and gave satisfaction he would expect to keep It—they would not turn him oft at the end of the strike? To which ths superintendent replied that he might trust Durham’s for that—they proposed to teach these unions s' les son, and moat of all those foremen who had gone back on them; Jurgts would receive $5 a day during tha strike and $25 a weak after It was settled. So our friend got a pair of "slaughter pen" boot* nnd "Jeans," and flung him self at the task. It was a weird sight, there on the killing beds—a throng of stupid black negroes and foreigners who could not understand a word that was said to them, mixed with pale- faced, hollow-chested bookkeepers and clerks, half falnilng from the tropical heat and the sickening stench of tho fresh blood—nnd all struggling to dress a dozen or two of cattle In the same place where twenty-four hours ago, the old killing-gang had been speeding with their marvelous precision, turning out too carcasses every hour. The negroes and the "toughs'' from w ith armfuls of newspapers, printed In the Levee did not want to work, and evory few minutes somo of them would feel obliged to retire and recuperate. In a couple of days Durham A Company had electric fnns up to cool off the rooms for them, and even couches for them to rest on; nnd meantlmo thoy could go out and find a shady corner and take a "snooze." and aa there was no place for any one In particular, and no system, It might b* hours before their boss discovered them. A* for tho poor office employees, thoy did thslr best, moved to It by terror; thirty of them had been ''fired'’ In a bunch that first morning for refusing to servo, be sides n number of women clerks and typewriters who had declined to act as waitresses. It was such a fores as this that Jur gls had to organize. He did his best, ■lying here and there, placing them In rowa and showing them the tricks; he had never given an order In his Ilf* before; but ho had taken enough of them to know, nnd ho soon foil Into tho spirit of It, and roared and stormed 11 It.! any r.1.1 stager. Ill' lind nut the most tractable pupils, however. "See hyar, boss,” a big black "buck" would begin, “of you doan like do way Ah does dls Job you kin git somebody else to do It.” Then a crowd would gather and listen, muttering threats. After tha drat meal nearly all tha steal knives had been missing, and now every negro had one, ground to a fine point; hidden In hts boots. There was no bringing order out of such a chaos, Jurgts soon discovered; nnd he fell In with the spirit of ths thing—there was no reason why h* should wear himself out with shouting. If hides and guts were slashed and rendered useless there was no way of tracing It to any ona; and If a man lay oft and forgot to coma back there was nothing to b« gained by seeking him, for all th* rest would quit In th* meantime. Everything went during ths strike, and the packers paid. Bgfore long Jurgls found that the custom of resting had suggested to some alert minds the possibility of registering at more than one place and earning more than one $5 a day. When he caught a man at this he “fired” him, but It chanced to be in a quiet corner, and the man tendered him a $10 bIH and a wink, said he took them. Of course be fore long this custom spread, and Jur gls was soon making quite a good In come from ft. Sin the face of handicap# ouch oa these the packers counted themselves lucky If they could kill oft the cattle that had been crippled In transit and ths hogs that had developed disease. Frequently, In the course of a two or three days' trip, In hot weather and without water, some hog would develop cholera and die; and the rest would at tack him before he hod ceased kicking, and when the car was opened there would be nothing of him left hut the bones. If all ths hogs In this carload were not killed at one* they would soon be down with the dread disease, and there would be nothing to do but to make them Into lord, ft was the samo with cattle that were gored and dying or were limping with broken bones stuck through thslr flesh—they mutt bo killed, even If tho brokers and buy ers and superintendents had Co take off thelt coats and help drive and cut and skin them. And meantime, agents of th<- packers were gathering gangs of negro*s In the country districts of the far South, promising them 56 a day and board, and being careful not to mention there was a strike; already carlgpd* of them were on the way, w ith special rates from tho railroads, and all truffle ordered out of Him way. Many towns and cities were taking advantage of till! i lain. I- 111 . I. Ill OUI tliell- Jails an.l iv.nklioimi'H In Detroit the magis trate* would releoso every man who agreed to leave town within twenty- four hours, ond agents of the packers ware In th* court room to ship them right And meantime trainloads of supplies were coming In for their ac commodation, Including beer and whis ky, so that they might not he tempted to go outside. They hired thirty young girls In Cincinnati to "pack fruit," nnd when they arrived they put them at work canning corned betf, nnd put cots for them to sloop In a public hall way, through which tha men passed. As the gangs came In day nnd night, under the escort of squads of police, they stowed them away In unused workrooms and storerooms, and In the car sheds, crowded so closely together that the cots touched. In some places they would use the earns room for oat- lag an.] sleeping, ami al nlgl.l th. limn would put their cots upon th* tnblos, to keep away from tho swarms of rats. But with all thslr best efforts the packers were demoralised. Ninety per cent of the men had walked out; and they faced the task ot complete ly remaking their labor tore*—and with the pries of meat up $0 per cent, and the public clamoring for a settlement. They mads an offer to submit the whole question at Issu* to arbitration; and at ths end of ten days the unions accepted It, and the strike was called off. It was agreed that all th* men were to be re-employed within forty- five days, ahd that there was to bs "no discrimination against union msn." This was an anxious time for Jurgls. [if the men were taken back "without [discrimination," ha would loss bis pres-I ent place. He sought out ths superin. Itendent, who smiled grimly and bads him ‘‘wait and ses.” Durham's strike, breakers w*re few of them leaving. Whether or not th* "s*ttl*ment' , was simply a trick of the packers to gain time, or whether they really expected Ito break tbs strike and cripple th* unions by ths plan, cannot be said; but that night there want out from the office of Durham A Co. a telegram to all the big packing centers; "Em ploy no union leaders." And In the morning, when the twenty thousand men thronged Into th* yards, with thslr dinner palls and working clothes, Jur gls stood near the door of the hog- trimming room, where be had worked before the strike, and saw a throng of eager msn, with a score or two of po licemen watching them; and he saw a superintendent .come out pnd walk down the line, and pick out man after man that pleased him; and one after another cams; and there were some men up near th* head of tha line who were never nicked—they being union stewards and delegates, and the men Jurgls bad heard making speeches at the meetings. Each tlma, of course, there were louder murmuring* and an grier looks. Over where th* cattle | butcher* were waiting Jurgls heard •houts and saw a crowd, and he hur ried there. On* big butcher, who was president of the Packing Trades Coun cil, had been passed over five times, and the men were wild with rags; they had appointed a committee of three to ■ a in ;.nd see the superintendent, and the committee had made three attempt* —and each tlm* th* police had clubbed them back from th# door, Then there were yells and hoots, continuing until at last the superintendent camo to the door. "We all go back or nono of us dol" cried a hundred voices. And th* other shook his fiat at thorn, and shouted, "You went out of here llko rattle, and like cattle you'll come back!" Then suddenly the big butcher presi dent looped upon a pile of stones and yelled; "It's off. boy*. *W’e'll all of us quit again!" And so the cattle butch ers declared a now strike on th* spot; and, gathering their members from tho other plants, where the sntno trick had been played, they marched down Pack ers' avenue, which was thronged with a dense mass of workers, cheering wild ly. Men who had already got to work on the killing beds dropped thslr tools nnd Joined them; some galloped hero nnd there on horseback, shouting tho tidings, and within half an hour the whole of Pocklngtown was on strlko again, and beside Itself with fury. There was quit* a different tono In Pocklngtown after this—th# placo wo* n seething caldron or passion, and the "scab” who ventured int.. it fared i..oi ly. Then- v-r« t» . ..f 11.. m.
