At a called meeting of the board of I
police commissioners, held Friday
night, Chief of Police Jennings was
directed to make a full Investigation
of the conduct of the policemen on duty
last Saturday night at the scene of the |
riot and to report to the board.
The meeting was called at the re- I
quest of Commissioner Brandon, who
said he had heard numerous rumors to
the effect that some of the policemen
were derelict In their duty In trying
to suppress the rioting. He said he |
thought this matter ought to be Inves
tigated.
The commissioners discussed the riot I
for some time, and It was generally
agreed that If any policeman failed to
do his full duty he should be punished.
It was urged that any citizens who can
throw light on the conduct of the po
lice should communicate with the chief.
The question of a reserve squad, to
be kept on duty at the police station,
as in former years, was discussed and |
met with favor. No definite action,
however, was taken.

Macon, Oa., Sept. 29.—Because of the
bloodshed and rioting last night. May
or Smith determined late yesterday af
ternoon to call a meeting of prominent
business men and devise plans for the
sotttlng of the difference between the
Macon Railway and Light Company
and Its striking employees.
The result of this meeting was the
appointment of a committee of three
citizens to wult upon the directors of
the railway company at a special meet
ing this afternoon nnd submit terms
u[K>n which the strikers are willing to
settle. A#il In the meantime a truce
has been declared and a moss meeting
and demonstration which was feared
would terminate In rioting was called
olt last night.
Instead of the radical demands made
by the strikers within less than a
month after winning a strike and get
ting all they demanded, Ben Commons,
representative from the national or
ganization of the street dar union,
agreed for the men to go back to work
in their old positions, and under the
terms of the lost decision of the board
of arbitration providing an arrange
ment was made whereby all employees
being discharged were given the right
to appeal for an Impartial hearing be
fore a committee of the directors.
While there have been noisy street
demonstrations for several nights since
the strike was declared and the com
pany has not attempted to run cars on
the South Macon line outside the city
limits, there was no fear of rioting
until yesterday when twenty-five Chi
cago strikebreakers began work.
The appearance of these men In town
created the greatest Excitement and
word was sent to Mayor Smith that
trouble would ensuo last night unless
the strike was settled. The mayor has
determined to settle the strike If pos<
slble. '
We are headquarters for Lighting Supplies,
and guarantee to save you sixty per cent of
