THE BRUNSWICK DAILY NEWS. VOLUME 3, NUMBER 182. LABORERS QUIT WORK IMPORTED HANDS TO TAKE THEIR PLACES LONGSHOREMEN ARE 01A STRIKE * -• jA Number of Them Re= fuse to work on Old Scale THE LUMBER MERCHANTS AGREE TO STAND PAI i .Meeting Was Held By Them Last ( Nighit.—O-nly One Firm Has Granted Increase Asked by ff Labor Union. Yesterday’s developments, in fact, the only in the past week, in the lo cal strike situation, arc regards the ■difference between the lumber deal ,H and the Longshoremen may he Rimmed up in ai few words —a declrc victory for the dealers. .J.c’As was announced in tliese col ijifima some time ago, the Longslmv 'fc*men gave notice to the shippers that they would refuse to go to work after Jjppist 24,- yesterday, unless their pay .advanced from 12 1-2 to 15 cents lfe*rftour. The lumbermen paid no at tention to the demand but awaited ’’result*- They came yesterday morn ■P’ ,3,’ho Longshoreman employed on the wlid"tps of B. Padroso, Brown & Co.’ McDonough & Cos., and the Mallard Cos., refused to go to work on j't- old scale. The employes of Chos. S. ttirrcoh 41 Cos., Cooney; Jfifestein & Cos., and N. Emanuel & resumed work at the same scale -and at the wharves of the Southern Pine Company (he demanded advance to 15 cents per hour was granted and, accordingly, tlhe men went to work. At |variou's othe|r lumber yards ■wiltaj-ver, and forwarders, a like con dition prevailed, and it can be truly ■sajid tllia,t those difference between the lumber dealers and the laborers, has for a time at least stagnated the most important industry inßruns ■wieki. The lumbermen seem to have jus tice on their side of the house and at a meeting of the representatives of the largest shippers in the port-it wait agreed to stand pat and absolu tely ignore the demands of the union for an increase in pay. The meeting was held last night. The News is frank to say that sen timent largely is with the dealers, and it seems to lie a matter of deep regret, that one of the concerns that should have stood with the others has seen fit to yield to the demand. This is explained, however, by the fact that the concern has five or six ing was rather due to a stress of vessels at its wharves and the yield cireustances than any inclination to increase the pay, and it is under stood that as soon as these vessels are di.vi osed of, which will be during the present week, that the company in question will join the others in insisting on a 12 1-2 cent per hour basis. In the meantime, those dealers, ship pers and forwarders whose men have deserted them have gone to work to import labor in the city and it is understood that, several hundred labor orers will arrive in the city within the next day or two. This is a matter that vitally effects the port of Brunswick and it is one the lumbermen mould be tuliy endor sed and aided by the people goner ally. Air increase of pay right at thf time would absolutely deprive Bruns wick of every solitary advantage -m now enjoys and it : to be hoped that the board of trade and the people of Brunswick will rally to the sup port ot the represesntatives of on in dustry -which, lor many years past has been the most, important in the commercial circles of this city. The strike has not materially re tarded business Those men who in spite of union demands, shoulu be commended end those who have utserlcd lima wh .It they hate meld in season and out for many > ears will in nil probability reap a ban es'.

They Do Not Uike the New Vagrant Law. There is genuine apathy among the negroes; the loafing kind, in Bruns wick and it is all caused by the new law on vagrancy. it ir a well known fact that there ,are as many if not more vagrants in Brunswick than any city of its size in tlie state onU the new law is sure to play havoc with them There is also a large number of white men and women who could not show any visi ble means of support to save their lives and these too are not a little scared about the now law.

The Atlanta News of Saturday gives the following interesting story: ’’Here is t he ,story of how a lady visiting Atlanta, travelled from Venice to Florence, a nine hours trip, in the same compartment with Pope Piux X. at that time Cardinal Sarto, of Venice. The lady is Mrs. H. F. Dunwody, a <sister of Mrs. Hollins Randolph, trow visiting her sister at 5S Forrest Avenue. “It was in the summer of 1900,” isaid Mrs. Dunwody, at the time of the pope'sl jubilee. My hustymd and I wore going from Venice to Flor ence. When we hoarded the train we were shown to a compartment already occupied by a strikingly handsome | priest, his sister and two grown oil 11- drem. The priest was Cardinal Sarto now Pope Pius X. ’I speak only a liUi-> French, so that our conversation wiv naturally, limited. The lady it seemed, was not ] at all pleased at wlml she considered er Intrustr,and took no iv is to hide her foelings. The cardinal, how | over, was kind as he could be and. showed us all manner of courtesies. ”He is much like his pictures, wit* magnificent eyes. His sister was Handsome too. They were alt going to Rome bi attend the pope’s jubilee and to have, an audience with him. ”It was an all night trip, there was no sleeper althougfi we were toii'i that there would be and the poor car dinal was put to it to get sleep, es pecially as the sister chatted at idle top of her voice perhaps to keep us awake.” Mrs. Dunwody has told the story to several Atlanta friends and it is not likely that she will ever forget Ihe trip with the cardinal who is cm pope and who ti perhaps. I’estdn, to carve his name among -ho i-:ii-• r ishables of the church. This is Atlanta's Hr- l g - , a ■ sociation with the new pope.” New Wood Yard. Attention is directed to the ad. of T. -I.

The pride of Erin and the boast of Columbia, will go together again today in the effort to win the honors in yachting craft. It. is well known that the first race between the two boats failed to ma terialize because the two boats fail ed to cover the course in accordance with the time allowance. In the sec ond contest, which occurred Saturday the Shamrock was signally defatart by the the Reliance, the latter yocht outsailing and outpointing her rival at every stage, of the game. Here in Brunswick the interest in this contest has been at fever heat Both boats have strong admirers and considerable money will change hands on the final outconi*ot the ser ies of races. >, —— ie ,V; , Negro suffrage Ccuventibrt Richmond.

Just, why there is not a wholesale ar rest of such characters is not known. There are many laws that are dead letters but it is not believed that the police of this city will let this one become dead jitsl after its birth, noq that they will let the new vagrant law become a dead lettter ere it lias taken off its swaddlitjkfe clothes.
