Opelika, Ala, July 20.—The question I of organizing a commercial 'club for Opelika has been agitated ttfr some time, and from the present outlook It Is probable that such an organisation will be effected at an early date. FOB THOMASVILLE Special to The Georgian. Thomasvllle, Go., July 20.—Another railroad will likely be built from Thom- asvllle to Sparks in the near future. Captain E. M. Smith, president of the 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 the beat section of the country In the state, touching the towns of Pavo, Adlai, 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 tho timbered section 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 the other railroads, will make Thomasvllle the center of a network of railroads that will have through con nections with the gulf, Atlantic and all Inland points. By Trieste Leased Wire. New York. July 20.—Dr. Julian Thomas, formerly of Atlanta, Ga.. to day In telling <>f the balloon trip he made with his wifo and Roy Knaben- shue yesterday from the gas works in the Bronx, satd: "Our descent into One Hundred 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 Mrs. Thom as were making the crowd understand that Its good Intentions were appre ciated, but that we wanted to sail and not come to anchor, I Improved the opportunity by climbing into the rig ging anti setting my moving picture machine to work. 'We had lost so much ballast trying to get away from the crowd that we ascended to a height of 9,000 feet." They finally made a landing Woodellffe, N. J., after having bumped over housetop#, grased trees, crossed Manhattan, and dipped Into the Hud son river several times. Although the balloonists were constantly In peril, Mrs. Thomas declared the experience was perfectly grand. SENATE MAKES MERRY WITH CRA WF WHEA 7 LE Y Now and then the sedate senate has a little fan at tho expense of some luck iest member, and when they "take off the Ud" they are worse than a lot of youngsters on th# run for tho "old swim- min' bole." Thursday they got Senator Crtwf Wheat* ley on the gridiron, and proceeded to boat It up until he fairly danced. For about ten minutes they had such fun hectoring the genial member from the Thirteenth that he had finally to yell for mercy. It come when Senntor Wheatley nroso to defend his measure for Incorporating and glvlug the Audubon Society of Gcorgtn cer tain powers to regulate tin- "laying of game and insectivorous birds In this state. Sena tor Alsobrook had Introduced bis substi tute, and made a splendid argument for '(Fentlomon," said Senator Wheatley, "l want you to understand that my bill does not seek to change any existing law or pass any new measure, other thnn tho mere Incorporation of tho Audubon Society of Georgia." "Did 1 understand the senator to say that this bill simply incorporates the so ciety?" artlessly queried Senator Candler. “Then doesn't the senator know that we haven’t any authority to Incorporate h**re?’* That flustered the eloquent speaker con siderably, hut he forged bravely ahead, aiul explained that It did giro certain rights and power to tho society. Then Senator Duuu heartlessly bowled hliu over by reading that sectlou which em* Dowers gauio wardens to search homes or cold storage plants for any excess of game. 1 Hsiunyeti liy this sort of badgering, but gallantly sticking to his guns. Senator Wheatley continued to defend hla bill, while he was enfiladed with a running fire of queries from all parts of the chamber. Then he threw up his bauds and despair ingly cried: *'1 want the senators to understand that this Isn’t my old bill, anyway." And such a shout of laughter and ap plause went up in that chnninor ns has not been heard there for a long while. *Tve said all 1 want to, and more that we voto now," ho concluded, ns he plumped Into his chair, aud wiped his moist brow. Then they proceeded to pass the Also brook substitute. GEORGIA CONFERENCE TO BE INCORPORATED Tho Georgia conference of the Meth odist Episcopal Church.

BIG STRIKE IN PACKINGT0WN--JURGIS PROVES FALSE TO UNION [Stock Yards and Surrounding Territory Turned Into a Veritable Hades. CHAPTER XXVI (Continued). 'Hut— but”—stammered Jurgts. H« IMd somehow taken It for granted that IMshouid go out with his*union. I The packers need good men, nnd I Wed them bad,” continued the other. I *nd they'll treat a man right that litxnds by them.

He had •lever thought of that aspect of It be- "I could be a Democrat," he eaid. responded the other, "but not hght atvay; a man can’t change hie roHtlcs every day. And, besides, I uont need you—there’d bo nothlng-for ;.° u *5 do. And It’s a long time to elec tion day, anyhow; and what are you going to do meantime?” i thought I could count on you, 1 Jurgls.

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 foeble efforts of a score ar two of clerks and ste nographers and office boys to finish up the job and get them Into the chilling rooms. Jurgls went straight up to him and announced: “I have come back to work, Mr. Murphy.” “The boss’ face lighted up. "Good man!” ho cried. "Come ahead!” "Just a moment," said Jurgls, check ing his enthusiasm. ”1 think I ought to get a little more wages.” “Yu." replied the other, "of course. What do you want?" Jurgls had debated on the way. His nerve almost failed him now, but he clenched his hands. "1 think 1 ought to have $2 a day,” he said.” “All right," said the other, promptly, and before the day was out our friend discovered that tho clerks and stenog raphers snd 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 he challenged threo men of his acquaintance to go outside and get a drink. They ac cepted, end went through the big Hal- 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 Halsted street, pnst the hotel, and then sud denly half a dozen men started across the street toward them and proceeded to arguo with them concerning 'to- <u - ror of their ways. As the arguments were not taken In the proper spirit they went on to threats; suddenly one of them Jerked off the hat of one of the four and flung It over the fence. The man surfed after It, and then, as a cry of "Scab!” was raised and a dozen persons came running out of sa loon* and doorways, a second man's heart failed him and he followed. Jur gls and the fourth stayed long enough to give themselves the satisfaction of a quick exchange of blows, and then they, too, took to their heels and fled back of tbe hotel and into the yards again. Meantime, of course, policemen were coming an a run, and as a crowd gath ered, other police got excited and sent ln a riot call. Jurgls knew nothing of this, but went back to “Packers’ ave nue,” and In front of the "Central Time SUtlon” ho saw one of his compan ions, breathlerf and wild with excite ment, narrating to an ever-growing throng how the four had been attacked and surrounded by a howling mob. and bad been nearly torn to pieces. While he stood listening, smiling cynically, serersl dapper young men stood by with note books In their hands, and It was not more than two hours later that jurgls saw newsboys running about with armfuls of newspapers, printed In ths Levee did not want to work, and red and black letters six Inches high: VIOLENCE IN THE STOCK YARDSI 8TRIKE-BREAKER8 8UR ROUNDED BY FRENZIED MOBI If he had been able to buy all of the newspapers of tho United States tho next morning he might have discovered that his boer-huntlng exploit was bo- ing perused by somo two-score millions of people, and had screed as a text for editorials ln half the staid and solemn business men’s newspapers In tho land. V Jurgls was to see more of this os time passed. For the moment, his work being over, he was free to ride Into the illy, l,r a railroad direct from tl„. yards, or else to spend the night In a room where cots had been laid In rows. He chose tho latter, but to his regret, for all night long gangs of strike breakers kept arriving. As very few of the better class of workingmen could be got for such work, these specimens of the nsw American hero contained an assortment of the criminals and thugs of the city, beside* negroes nnd ths lowest foreigners Oresks-Bosma- nlnns, Sicilians and Slovaks. They ha/1 been attracted more by the prospect of dlnirdcr than by the iilg wages; nnd they made ths night hideous with sing ing and carousing, and only went to sleep when the time came for them to get up to go to work. In the morning, before Jurgls had finished his breakfast, "Pat” Murphy ordered him to ono of the superintend ents, who questioned him as to his ex perience In the work of the killing room. Ill* heart begun to thump with em Itement, hr If divined Instantly that his hour had come—that he was to be a boss! Some of the foremen were union wwihsrs. and many who ware not had gono out with the men. It was In the killing department that the packers had been left most In the lurch, and pre cisely here that they could least afford It; the smoking ana canning and salt ing of meat might wait, and all tho by-products might be wasted—but fresh meats must bo had, or the res 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 seized It. Yes, he knew the work, the whole of 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 off at the end of the strike? To which the superintendent replied that he might trust Durham’s for that—they proposed to teach these unions a les son, and most of all those foremen who had gone back on them. Jurgls would receive i( a day during the strike and $26 a week after It was settled. So our friend got a pair of "slaughter pen” boots and "Joans," 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 fainting from the tropical heat and the sickening stench of the fresh blood—and 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 400 carcassed every Imur. The negroes and the "toughs” from every few minutes some of thorn would feel Obliged to retire and recuperate. Ill a couple of days Durham & Company lmd electrlo fans up to cool off ths rooms for them, and even couches for them to rest on: and meantime they could go out and find a shady corner and take a “snooze," and as tharo was no place for any one In particular, and no system. It might be hours bofore their boss discovered thorn. As for the poor office employees, they did thslr best, moved to It by terror; thirty of them had been “fired” In a bunch that first morning for refusing to serve, be sides a number of women clerks and typewriters who had declined to aot ob waitresses. It was such a force as this that Jur gls had to organize. He did his best, flying here and there, placing them In rows and showing them the tricks; ho had nevor given an order In Ills life before, but he had taken enough of them to know, and ho soon fell Into the spirit of It, and roared and stormed llko any old Btager. He had not tho most tractable pupils, however. "Seo hyar, buss,” a big black "buck” would begin, “ef you doan llko do way Ah docs qls job you kin git somebody elso to do It.” Then a crowd would gather and listen, muttering threats. After tho flrat meal nearly all tho steol knives had been missing, nod now every negro had one, ground to a fine point, hidden In his boots. There was no bringing order out of such a chaos, Jurgls soon discovered; nnd ha fell In with the spirit of the thing—there was no reason why ho should wear himself out with shouting. If hides and guts were slashed and rendered useless there was no way of tracing It to any one; and If a man lay off and forgot to como back there wns nothing to be gained by seeking him, for all the rest would quit fa the meantime. Everything went during tho .-trike, and th.- pickers paid, liqforu long Jurgls found that tne custom of resting had suggested to some alert minds the possibility of registering at more than one place and earning more than one tr, ii day. When he caught a man at this ho “fired" him, but It chanced to be In a quiet corner, and the man tendered him a $10 bill and a wink, and he took them. Of course be fore long this custom spread, and Jur gls was soon making quite a good In come from It. In the face of handicaps such as these t tie pll'kers ••Minted themselves lucky If they could kill off the cattle that had been crippled In transit and the hogs that had developed disease. Frequently, In the iwn M a two or three days’ trip. In hot weather and without water, eome hog would develop cholera and die; and the rest would at tack him before he had ceased kicking, and when the car was opened there would b? nothing of him left but tho bones. If all the hogs In this cnrload were not killed at once they would soon be down with the dread disease, and there would be nothing to do but to make them Into lard. It was the same with cattle that were gored and dying or were limping with broken bones stuek through their flesh—they must be killed, even If the broken and buy ers and superintendents had to take off their coats and help drive and cut and skin them. And meantime, agents of the packers were gathering gangs of negroes In the country districts of the far South, promising them 16 a day and board, and being careful not to mention there was a strike: already carloads of them were on the way, with epeclal rates from the railroads, and all traffic ordered out of the way. Many towns and cities were taking advantage "f tbe chum o to dear nut tbolr Jails and workhouses—In Dotrolt the magis trates would release every man who agreed to leave town within twenty- four hours, and agents of the packers were In the court room to ship thorn right. And moantlmo trainloads of supplies were coming In r,u lb,Ur ac commodation, Including boor and whis ky. so that they might not be 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 best and put rots for them to sleep ln a public hall way, through Which tho mon passed, As the gangs rams In day and night, under the escort of squads of police, thoy stowed them away In unused workrooms nnd storerooms, and In ths car sheds, crowded so closely together that th* cots touched. In some places they would use the samo room for eat ing and sleeping, and at night the men would put their cots upon tho tables, to keop away from the swarms of rats. But with all their best efforts ths packers were demoralised. Ninety per rent of ths men hod walked out; and they faced tho task of complete ly remaking their labor force and with the prlco of meat up 30 per cent, and the public clamoring for a settlement. They made an offer to submit tho tvh111e Ijuestp.il nt Issue t„ arbitration; and at the end of ten days tho unions accepted It, and tho strike was called off. It was agreed that all tho mon were to bo re-employed within forty five dnys, and that there was to be "no discrimination against union man. 1 ' This was an anxious time for Jurgts. If ths men were taken back "without discrimination,” hs would loao his pres ent place. He sought out the superin tendent, who smiled grimly and bade him "wait and see,” Iiurham'a strike breaker* were few of them leaving. Whether or not the ‘'settlement" was simply a trick of the packers to gain time, or whether they really expected to break tho strlkp and cripple the unions by the plan, cannot be said; but that night there went out from the office of Durham & Co. a telegram to all the big packing cantors, "Km ploy no union leaders." And In tbe morning, when the twenty thousand men thronged Into the yards, with their dinner palls and working clothes, Jur gls stood near tho door of the fiog- trtmmlng room, where hs had worked before the strike, snd saw a throng of eager mon, with a score or two of po- llcemen watching, them: and li" eaw .• superintendent come out and walk down the line, and pick out man after man that pleased Idm; and oae after another came, and ih.ro were e.,tne men up near the head of the IlM who were never plrked—they being union stewards and delegates, and the men Jurgls had heard making speeches at the meetings. Each time, of course, there were louder murmuring* and an grier looks. Over where the cattle butchers were waiting Jurgts heard shouts and saw a crowd, and he hur ried there. One big butcher, who was president of the Packing Trades Coun cil, had been passed over five times, and the men were wild with rage; they had appointed a committee of three to go In and seo the superintendent, and the committee had made three attempts —and each time the police had clubbed them back from the door. Then there were yells and hoots, continuing until at last the superintendent came to the door. "We nil go back or none of u* dol” cried a hundred voices. And the other shook his fist at them, and shouted, "You wont out of here like cattle, and like cattlo you'll come, back!” Then suddenly the big butcher presi dent looped upon a pllo of stones nnd yelled; "It’s off. boy*. We’ll nit of us quit again!'’ And so tho cattlo butch ers declared a now strlko on the spot; and, gathtrlng thslr members from tho other plnnts, where the satno trick hod been played, they marched down Park ers’ avenue, which was thronged with a dense mass of workore, cheering wild ly. Men who had already got to work on the killing beds dropped their tools nnd Joined them; some galloped here and there on horseback, shouting the tidings, and within half an hour tho whole of Packlngtnwn wns on strike again, nnd beside Itself with fury- There was quite a different tone In I’acklngtowu aftor thla—tho plaoe was a seething caldron of passion, and the "scab” who ventured Into It fared bad ly. There well! olv „ r two lit these Incidents each day, the newspapers de tailing them, and always blaming them upon the unions. Yet tan years before, when there were no unions In Packing- town, there was u strike, nnd national troops h.vl to be called, snd there wi re I II, I,' I battles fought at night, hy the light of blazing freight trains. Pack- Ingtown was always a center of vio lence; In "YVhlsky Point,” where there were a hundred eslouns and one glue factory, there was always fighting, and always more of It In hot weather. Any ono who had taken ths trouble to con sult the station houso blotter would have found that there was lees vlo- lonco that summer than ever before— and this while twenty thousand men wer* out of work, and with nothing to do all day but brood upon bitter wrongs. There wns no one to picture III., battle the union leaders were fight ing—to hold this huge army In rank, to keej, it from straggling nnd pillag ing, tn cheer nnd encourage nnd guide n hundred thousand people, of a dosen. different tonguen, through six long, weeks of hunger and disappointment and despair. Moantlmo the packers had set thnm-j selves definitely to th* task of making new labor force. A thousand or two of strikebreakers were brought In every, night, and distributed among th* vari ous plants. Some of them were eipe— rlenced workers—butchers, salesmen and managers from the packers' branch stores, and a few uplon men who had deserted from other ettiee; but the majority ware “green” negroes from the cotton dtstrlots of the far South, aud they were horded Into the j,a, king plants like sheep. There was a law forbidding tho uao of butldlnge aa lodg ing bouses unless they were licensed for the purpose, end provided with proper windows, stairways, and firs ee-, capos; but here. In a “paint room." re.i, lied only hy an Inclosed "chute.", a room without a single window nnd only one door, a hundred man were crowded upon mattresses on the floor., rpiiri the third et.,rv of Ihe “hog house'*! uf Jones' was a store room, without a window, Into which they crowded seven bundled men. sleeping Upon Ihe bars spring* at cots, and With a second shift to uso them by dny. And when the clamor of the public led to an Investi gation Into these conditions, snd the, mayor of the city was forced to order the enforcement of the law. the packers. got a Judge to issue an’Injunction for-' bidding him to do It!
