WASHINGTON.—The case of Sher iff Shipp, of Hamilton county, Tenn., and nine others, charged with con tempt of the supreme court of the United States in connection with the lynching of a negro at Chattanooga, in 1905, was finally disposed of by that court by the opinion which direct ed an attachment issue for Shipp, his deputy, Gibson, and the defendants, Williams, Nolan, Padgett and May. Information as to Deputy Sheriff Gal loway and Justice Ward and three of the defendants was dismissed. Justice Peckham delivered a dis senting opinion declaring there was not the 'slightest testimony to sup port the charge against Shipp.” He therefore did not believe the officials should be subjected to the possibility of “a disgraceful imprisonmeut' aud made an earnest plea against such a course. Justice Peckham concluded by as serting that Shipp, whom he. de scribed “as an invalid old man, bad been "held to a degree of responsi bility far beyond any reasonable lim it.” Justices White and McKenna con curred in the dissenting opinion. The chief justice presented a com plete review of the Johnson case. He concluded that neither Shipp nor deputy, Gibson, had made any effort to prevent the removal of Johnson from jail to prevent his killing after he was taken out, nor to discover participants in the lynching after it took place. The rule was madei re turnable Tuesday, June 1, when it is supposed Shipp and his co-defendants will be arraigned in court and re ceive sentence. It will lie with the court to de termine the degree of punishment that may be inilicted upon the men found guilty- The term of imprison ment for each is among the ities as the tone of the opinion of the chief justice indicated no diminu tion of the original indignation of the court regarding the lynching after the court’s intervention in the Johnson case. ANDREWS’ KIMONO SALE WAS A GRAND SUCCESS The kimono sale at Andrews Bros. Monday morning proved the most suc cessful day in the store’s history. By 7 o'clock a line of 100 ladies stood in waiting, and when the doors open ed there was an immediate rush to the big counter, ablaze from end to end with kimonos of brilliant and varied hue. As the morning advanced the num ber increased, and the kimonos dis appeared rapidly—c'like hot cakes, to quote the well-worn phrase. More than 300 were sold by noon. The kimono sale was advertised ex clusively in The Herald On Thurs day and Friday brief notices were in serted, and on Sunday a display ad was printed. “The Bale surpassed even our fond est expectations,” declared a member of the Arm, “and its success may be regarded as an eloquent testimonial to the potency of Herald advertis ing.” DRUGGISTS ARE AT MACON MEETING Several Augusta druggists have left the city for Macon, Ga., where they will attend the convention of the druggists of Georgia. The con vention meets on May 25th and 26th. The druggists will return to the city about Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Among the Augusta drug gists who will attend the convention is Dr. R. H. Land, Jr., Chas Parr, and wife and Dr. A. N, Stothart. THE ATXGTTSTA HERALD COL POMEROY TO SEND COMMITTEE Commander of Fifth Reg iment Seems Favorably Disposed to Augusta as a Site for Encampment. Secretary Johnson of the Chamber of Commerce is in receipt of a letter from Col. Pomeroy, of Atlanta, com manding the Fifth Regiment of Infan try, N. G. of Ga., in which he states that a committee will be here on May 30 to look over the ground, and de cide whether or not Augusta would be a suitable place to hold the annual encampment of the Fifth Regiment, this summer. It will be recalled that Col. Pomeroy took up the matter with Secretary Johnson sometime ago, acting on a suggestion of Adjutant-General A. J. Scott, and received a very encourag ing reply. The probability of holding the joint encampment of the Third Regiment and Third Battalion in Augusta led officers of the local military too look about for a suitable location, and the fair grounds was agreed upon as filling every qualification. So when Col. Pomeroy’s committee comes down to see what Augusta can offer in the way of a camp site they will be taken to the flair grounds first, and possibly to one or two other places equally suitable. They will be offered every induce ment, and it may be expected that the Fifth Regiment encampmnt is to be held in Augusta. LIGHTNING KILLED YOUNG CAROLINIAN Mr. John Williams Ran in House to Escape Storm When Fatal Bolt Struck Him. Special to The Herald. GREAT FALLS, S. C.—Mr. John Williams, shortly after he had taken refuge in a new house when he was driven from his work in his garden by a thunder storm, was struck by a bolt of lightning Sunday and instant ly killed. He was unmarried, but leaves three sisters, who were de pendent upon him for support. At the time he was struck Mr. Williams was standing in the door with both hands against the facing. Three oth er men in the same room were se verely shocked. What The Papers Are Saying About The Georgia R. R. Strike JOURNAL > ~ OF LABOR. THE FIREMEN’S STRIKE. Once again the strike oall has been heard at our doors and the firemen on the Georgia railway are out on a strike. A nobler, a more honest and conscientious band of men never have been found than is to be found among these striking firemen of the Georgia railway. With their feet firmly placed upon the solid rock of unionism, with principle at their back, and justice and right in their forefront, they are firmly holding their own, and demand ing that, justice which is due them, and declare like all devotees of the labor movement that defeat shall never be theirs. As the Journal of Labor sees the question the firemen are clearly fight ing for a principle of unionism as clearly defined as unionism itself. While the color line has entered into the proposition, it is not all of the question. No matter who made conditions, the fact is that the road would not tol erate for one brief moment a negro question is where does the Georgia road get its supply of .n gineers from? Clearly, from the firemen That being made clear to all U it not plain that the firemen are fighting for their rights as eppren- UC n is all bosh to say to give the negro a fair show work. _ TO m n d ? fhev ari; now attempting to do the establishment of better working conditions. friend To our mind the n^ o 9 ' f f H-SSssks has met with stubborn opposition fnrm employ) flren)an can not be an engineer! then why deprive the-white man of serving his apprenticeship for the place? this question should be settled, and there Is hut one way to settle It and that Is to place the members of the Brotherhood on the engine. Mr Ball, the vice-president of the firemen, has been In the city several weeks; during that time he has calf td on the Atlanta Federation of Trades Mr. Van Houten as president, Mr. Candler, president of the cham ber of commerce; Col. Livingston, congressman from this district; Mr. J. Lee, president of the State Farm ers’ Union, all of whom have taken a deep interest in this affair. CENTRAL OF CEORCIA RAILWAY.

Mr. Ball exhausted every influence he could command to make a peqce» nblo settlement of tho matter, but was unsuccessful. The Journal of Labor has put tills question squarely up on Its morlls— as we see It. It Is a condition that would not be tolerated In any line of Industry—and the Georgia railroad cannot justify its position. We regret to see this difference. Our every public utterance has been for peace. Only recntly at the Grand Opera house we gave utterance to the pleasant Bud happy relations between capital and labor, little dreaming that so soon we would see a division, one arrayed against the other. The Journal of Labor has always been fair, and when wo believed the corporations, particularly railroads, were being imposed upon we did not hesitate to say so in no uncertain terms, and we said It too when It was not popular nor profitable. We feel that we have some right to suggest to the Georgia railroad, when It comes to a question between the men, and we also feel that the road should answer our petition. We have always entertained for the Georgia railroad and Its management the kindliest of feelings,'and we re gret to see the trouble that now We frankly say that we believe the road 1» responsible for tlie unhappy state of affairs presented. We are yet In hopes that tho man agement of the road may see bis way clear to bring about settlement at an early date. Atlanta people do not take a pride In the severance of friendly ties be tween employer and employe; ours Is a paceful city, and a harmonious, lov ing people. The Georgia railroad would xerve its own interests and that of Atlanta by adjusting the difference with We Brotherhood of Firemen now. ALBANY HERALD. GOOD FOR SENATOR BACON! Senator A. O. Bacon did something yesterday that will bo applauded by the best people of Georgia, and the Herald wants Its readers to know about it. Our telegraphic dispatches yester day reported the fact that. Manager T. K Scott of the Georgia ral*e tug annoyed by a strike of the white firemen on his road, had appealed to the potsofflee Department at Wash ington for federal Intervention, al leging that the strike threatened to interrupt the mail service. It now appears that Manager Scott also wired Senator Bacon asking him to call on the chairman of the Inter- FIN AN C LAX Choosing a Bank Is one of the most IMPORTANT nets In the career of any flfm or In dividual. A good banking connection Is of MATERIAL help to one. If you have no bank account, or desire to change your present ar rangements, we offer you the excellent facilities of this bank. The SMALL depositor receives the same courteous consideration as the LARGER one. , The National Bank of Augusta L. C. HAYNE, President. CHAB. R. CLARK, Cashier. The National Exchange Bank OF AUGUSTA, GEORGIA, Being equipped with unequaled facilities for the transaction of all branches of legitimate banking, invites the accounts of individuals and corporations, promising the utmost liberality of treatment con sistent with prudent business methods. Wo pay interest on time deposits and have safe deposit boxes to rent. Capital and Surplus $540,000.00 Georgia Railroad Bank Augusta, Georgia. ' This Bank Solicits tlio banking business of merchants and corporations. We pay 4 Per Cent Interest on all deposits placed in our Savings Dept. YOUR ACCOUNT INVITED. An Important Factor The reason why nearly every business man carries a Think account is not simply that he fears the loss of his money by theft or fire, but because he appreciates the fact that in the detailed matters of financing his business, a modern and up-to-date bank can afford him such accommodations -as arc not, in the power of any other organization. It Is largely because of the interest we have manifested In each depositor that this bank lot's grown to be so important a factor in the business and financial affairs of this city. MERCHANTS BANK State Commerce Commission and di rect his attention to the fact that there have been several cases of in terruption of the movement of through freight trains carrying inter state freight, and ascertain what re lief could he expected from the com mission or through the operation of the legal department so far as it may be directed by the commission. In another telegram to Senator Bacon Manager Scott alleged that there had been Interruptions of the mail ser vice and ho requested the senator to call at the Postofflca Department and nsk that the fullest, authority of the legal department be exerted in the matter. When Senator Bacon had road and considered Manager Scott's two tele grams, ho proceeded to do the right thing. Instead of rushing to tho Inter state Commerce Commission or to tho postmaster general to Invoke fed eral intervention In a strike affair between white firemen and negro fire men here in Georgia, the senator re plied by wire to General Manager Scott, ns we are Informed by the Washington correspondent of (lie At lanta Constitution, that the power to protect persons and property and to preserve order in the slate belongs to the state government. He further said that in his judgment the United States government does not have this duty devolved upon It, unless called on, either by the state legislature or by the governor, to protect the state against domestic violence, as pre scribed in the Constitution of the United States. For this reason Sen ator Bacon did not deem It proper to ask that the fulest. authority of the States government and declined to make the request and so notified Gen eral Manager Scott. The senator further expressed the hope Uml the trouble might bo permanently re moved by General Manager Scott him self by relieving the white firemen from negro competition. Well done, Senator Bacon I ATHENS BANNER. ARBITRATE THE DIFFERENCES. The firemen's slitke on ttie Geer gla railroad has reached a point where tho business Interests of the people are being seriously affected. We are not in position to say how the situation is on tho main line, but on the branch lino between tills city and Union Point the situation Is anything but satisfactory. Of course it was expected that there would be somo trouble' experienced In the handling of freight and passenger traffic and it was realized that it would take sev eral days to demonstrate Just how far the strike would tie-up traffic. Those days have passed and the strike so far as this immediate section of the state Is concerned has tled-up traf fic to an extent that has brought about serious inconvenience. Merchants have freight delayed on account of the strike and they are unable to ship to their customers along the line of the Georgia. One manufacturing company in this city will have to shut down Monday on account of inability to get 11s ship ments of Incoming freight through the blockade. Those desiring to go as passengers to points along the line of the Georgia have been seriously Inconvenienced by tho strike. Where two parties disagree on vital Issues there Is a way to settle their differences and that way Is by arbi tration. The submission of these dif ferences to a board of fair and just citizens ought to bring about a solu tion of the trouble. The Georgia railroad officials are charged by the PAGE NINE FINANCIAL firemen with being in favor of negro supremacy on I heir road. The offi cials deny this charge. The firemen say that negroes are being promoted over them to the better positions be cause they can be hired cheaper than white men. The railroad officials deny this charge. There seems to bo plenty of issues to be appropriate ly submitted to arbitration. The sympathy of the white pooplo of this community Ib clearly with the firemen In their strike. It is made manifest on all sides. We are not prepared to state that the sympathy of the white people at other points on the line Is similar to that, of thn poo plo here, hut it Is practically certain that the positions of firemen arc not to bo easily recruited here from among the white people. A fair and Just arbitration cannot he objected to by either party to this trouble. While each party Is evi dently firmly convinced Hint right Is on fils side, still at the same time in order that all differences may be amicably settled, there can be no well-grounded objection Talsed to ar bltratllng ihe differences. Unless some step of this kind is taken we believe that the Interests of the people will continue to suffer, and ncjlher the firemen nor the railroad will escape Injury. Lot the movement for arbitration be started through the proper chan nels. MOULTRIE * 1 *«iR|FSYI OBSERVER. Governor Smith is not proving him such an enemy to the Georgia rail road as the officials of that road have considered hint. He has issued an order to the sheriffs along the line of road to prevent, any attacks on the property- of the road by the white firemen who are being supplanted by negroes. DEMURRAGE CODE MAY BE AMENDED Secretary Johnson of the Chamber of Commerce liaH been advised that his suggestion for n change In the Universal Code of Demurrage has been favorably enter!alnd, and will be submitted to the demurrage beard of the Inter-State Commerce Commission at their meeting In Wash lngotn on June 4 to n. Soon after the Hood, when dissat isfaction arose among large local shippers because of the Imposition of demurrage charges on cars which they were unable to unload, Secretary Johnson went to Atlanta and present ed their claim for rebate to the Inter- State Commerce Commission. His contention In their favor was based on the ground that they had been hind ered by providential causes, and were not Justly to be held responsible for delay In unloading certain water bound cars He even went, further, and suggest ed that a revision he made In certain clauses of the Universal Demurrage code, providing relief for shippers In such eases, and It Is probable that his idea will be carried out by the de murrage bourd.
