SATURDAY. OCTOBER 6, 13Cc
RAILROADS MAKE
FIGHT AGAINST
SWITCHING RULE
Railroad Commissioner Will
Render Decision Next
Thursday.
After hearing arguments In tmpor
tant mntterB brought before them dur
Ing three days of this week the railroad
commission adjourned Friday after
noon to meet again on next Thursday,
when they will Issue decrees and or
ders In the cases heard.
Practically all of the final session
Friday was taken up with the argu
mcnts relative to enforcement of the
rules requiring railroads to switch to
its private tracks and sidings freight
received from a rival road, and where
•uch company has no part of the haul
except the switching to desired local!
ties.
The commission is of the opinion that
authority to enforce regulations of this
nature was given them under the new
Steed law. The necessity of such a
requirement has been brought forcibly
to bear here In Atlanta by refusal of
the 8outhem railway to switch coal
cars of the Louisville and Nashville to
its private tracks where certain Indus
tides are located.
This petty row between the tw
roads has occasioned great Inconven
ience to manufacturers and cool deal
ers, and unless ended may result In
the consumers suffering by advance in
coal prices. As It Is the row has caus
ed a scarcity in coal and a threatened
advance. . . #
Argument In the switching case for
the roads was advanced by T. M. Cun
nlngham. of Savannah, counsel for the
Central; Robert c\ Alston, counsel for
the Seaboard, and Captain Haskell,
counsel for the Southern. Their argu
ment was that the Steed law did not
contemplate forcing railroads to trans
port freight received ffom a competing
line over Its private tracks and sidings,
as It would amount to a practical con
fiscation of private property, to say
nothing of the probable Interference
with the business of the road so af-
Je Argument for the other side was pre
gen ted by W. H. Barfttt, the oommla
slon reserving its decision until next
^Another important n ** ,, ®r.
waa that of rule 10 prescribing the
number of miles In 24 hours a car
must be hauled. Recently the comm s-
alon amended the rule so a* to require
a car to be moved ,6 lnetead of SO miles
In 24 hour*. As the new rule has not
been placed Into effect, the commis
sion heard argument from the roada
**Ar*ument against It w»a hasedlarge-
ly upon the poor quality of coal now
obtainable by the roads, which made
It Impossible to get good speed out of
the engines. It was stated that coal
bills for the roads had Increased over
<0 per cent In the last three months,
ami that the cpal * tt * ntaU
Thl* matter nlso went over to next
Thursday.

London, Oct. 6.—The Olympic games
at which American athletes have had
such triumphs, will be held for the
flrat time out of Greece In 1908, when
London will be the scene of the world'
congress of sport.
The committee of organisation for
the London Olympic games includes
several noblemen prominent In the
sporting world, such as Lord Montagu
of Beaullsu, Lord Desborough and Sir
Lees Knowles. Ths secretary of the
British Olympic council Is the Rev. R.
S. de Oourcy Lafftn.
While keeping close to the ancient
Greek Ideals, ths council will Invite
societies In every branch of modern
sport to tend representatives, not con
fining the games to athletics pure and
simple.
The games will be held on six con
secutlve days (Monday to Saturday)
In July, 1908.
Belvolr Castle, one of the most pals
tlal ducal mansions In Great Britain,
Is to be closed for a year because the
new Duke of Rutland cannot afford to
keep It up after paying the enormous
amount of death duty payable to the
national exchequer at the recent de
mlse of his father.
Ths duke has had to reduce his ex
penses further by letting his shooting
bog In Derbyshire to a rich Notting
ham manufacturer.
Ths amount of duty the duke has to
pay Is estimated at about 9187,600, the
value of his estates being about 22,
600,000.
Before succeeding to the dukedom,
he was long known as the Marquis of
Granby, lord lieutenant of Leicester
shire, a good sportsman and an au
thority on British wild birds and trout
Ashing. The marchioness was even
more celebrated. She Is an accom
plished artist and sculptor, and her
pastel portraits of celebrities are gems
of art. Her daughter. Lady Marjorie
Mannors, Is a society beauty and said
to be the future wife of Prince Arthur
of Connaught.
The steward's department at Wind
sor castle seems to have carried out
King Edward's general Instructions for
economical working too far, and In
more than one case they have been ao
harsh In their treatment of hands em
ployed on the estate as to create a
scandal.
The particularly hard case of Wil
liam Deeley, a forester In Windsor
Great Park, has aroused an Indignant
protest which has spread from Wind
sor to London and throughout the
kingdom. Everybody says that the
king cannot he aware of the manner
In which his servants are being
treated.
This man, who had worked In the
park for twenty-nine years, had to
cease work through cancer. When he
became useless his wages were sto|
ped, nnd he had to go Into the worl
house, where he will probably die a
pauper. No attempt was made by the
household official* to phovlde for him
by pension* or otherwise.
The employees at Windsor have
committed suicide, one because he was
dismissed with a totally Inadequate
pension and another because he was
badly treated In the workshops.
An attendant who had to guard the
royal art treasures In the state apart
ments. and who had twenty six years’
service of an unblemished character,
was removed from his position of trust
nnd given a very menial Job at half
the salary, and longer hours. This
degradation w-as ordered because the
authorities thought the man was over
paid. The shameful treatment of royal
servants Is to be brought to the notice
of parliament during next session.
The camera and microscope are
combined to do delicate detective
work In a new process exhibited at the
exhibition of the royal shows—a series
of photographs which represent damn
ing evidence against criminals.
One photograph la a magnified por
tion of a post card found two years
after a murder In the pocket book of
the assassin. The writing Is almost ob
literated, but by Professor Reiss' pro
cess It Is made quite clear. ,
A handkerchief which had been
thoroughly washed and w-as apparent
ly quite spotless, revealed bloodstains
when photographed by this unerring
camera.
Forgeries are also detected by the
Reiss process. Among the photo
graphs shown Is one of a bill of ex
change for 193 francs, altered to 12,-
000. which forgery was revealed by the
camera. Another Interesting specimen
Is an envelops bearing marks showing
that It had been opened In passing
through ths post, though there were
no visible elgns of any tampering be
fore the photograph was taken.
BROYLESTOLDHOGAN
HE RAD A
At the conclusion of the trial In po-
lice court Saturday morning of J. B.
Hogan, an employee of the Woodward
Lumber Company. Recorder Broyles
told Hogan he seemed to be laboring
under some kind of delusion.
Cases had been entered by Bicycle
Policeman W. R. Jones against both
Hogan and A. W. Williams, another
employee of the Woodward Lumbe-
Company, and both of whom board at
23 Hightower etreet, as the result of
fight between the two men. The
_. Idence showed that Hogan was un
der the Impression that Williams wai
trying to annoy him and that the form-
- had made threats sgatnst Williams
Hogan took up the matter with Wil
liams and a fight followed. Several
witnesses testified Williams was not to
blame. The recorder fined Hogan
16.76 and dismissed the case of Wil
liams. The latter dented he had done
anything at all to annoy his fellow
boarder.
During the trial he declared he was
afraid Hogan would try to kill him.

Paris Manufacturer Com
ments on Crusade Against
Killing Birds.
By RAOUL DE SAINT RENE.
(Copyright, 1906, by Hearst News Ser
vice.)
Paris, Oct. 6.—Parisian society has
been startled by a terrible drama which
has taken piece within Its charmed cir
cle. The principal characters concern
ed In the tragedy are a handsome lieu
tenant and a remarkably beautiful
woman, the divorced wife of a promi
nent society man. .
Lieutenant Count Jean de Barthier-
Sauvlgny, on returning to hie apart
ment from a ride In the Bole the other
afternoon, heard moans Issuing from
his room. Ho hastily opened the door
and beheld the figure of Countess Ida
de Commlnges reclining In an arm
chair with blood gushing from a bullet
wound In her breast with a pistol In her
hand. She had attempted to commit
suicide. Doctors were Immediately
summoned and pronounced the life of
the countess In grave danger.
The countess' act Is the denouement
of a sensational affair which was the
gossip of the Parisian salons for some
time.
Monsieur Grille!, who Is at the head
of one of the largest manufactories of
feather ornaments for millinery pur-
loses, has been Interviewed on the sub-
ect of the Anti-Feather Trimmed-Hat
League, and the effect which It Is like
ly to have upon the Industry which he
represents. 61. Grltlet hsa replied:
"Tender hearts are apt to be over-
zealous, and the ladles who rise up In
arms against what they consider a
cruel Industry Would do better to In
quire Into the workings of this busi
ness before they condemn It. and by
their efforte perhaps old in depriving
thousands of young girls and women oi'

living.
“In the lint place, more then fifteen
years ago the United States, by means
of tariff legislation resulting In a 60
per cent duty being levied on all feath
er goods entering the country, put an
end once for alt to possibility of deal
ers supplying ths foreign market with
genuine plumage taken from rare
Jlrde. The coat of obtaining the birds
from tropical countries, curing the
skins and stuffing them or preparing
the plumage In other ways for the mar
ket. Is too great for ue to make any
profit whatever on the sales of these
goods.
‘‘The United States are our best cus
tomers. We send hundreds of thou
snnds of wings and plumes of one sort
and another to America every year.
Now. we nre not In thl* business for
philanthropy, and setting aside
questions of humanity, we simply enn't
afford to turn out the genuine article.
We have clever workwomen who make
such perfect Imitations that they are
not to be distinguished from the real.
Take the humming birds, for Instance,
which were not long ago fashionable
and which, if real, would have coat
fabulous prices. Well, not one hum
ming bird has, to my knowledge, been
killed for the feather market within
the last ten years. The humming

and pigeon.

At last a long-felt want Is to be sup
plied to Paris. The city Is to have a
district messenger service. A great
source of annoyance to Americans In
Paris has been the lack of a messenger
service.
Any one wishing to send a note by
hand to any part of the city has been
obliged to have recourse to services of
cafe employee called the "chaaeeur/
to depend upon the more or leas re
liable services of ths corner boot-
black. Messenger boys exist, but they
are attached to the postal department
and deliver only such messages as are
mailed In the ordinary way with extra
stamps In the special delivery box.
The new service has been organised
by an American woman. Miss An
drews, who has been associated for sev
eral years with Miss Marbury, the
American agent for the French Society
of Dramatic Authors.
Commissioner of Agriculture Hudson
will Issue late Saturday afternoon his
report on Georgia crop conditions up
\to October 1.
While no Intimation has come from
the department as to the contents of
the report. It may be safely stated that
It will show a serious condition In - the
cotton crop particularly, and the per
centage may drop well below. 70 per
cent.
The last report was Issued by the de
partment In August and showed a con
dition of 72 per cent. Since that time
Commissioner Hudson has Indicated by
newspaper Interviews that cotton
deteriorated a great deal.
Within the past two weeks excessive
rains have caused bolls to rot, and
wind and rain combined has beat
great deal of the open staple out of
the burrs.
In the light of all these facts It will
not be surprising If the October report
shows a condition as low as 66.
