NEW LABORERS AT WORK
ALONG THE RIVER FRONT
LUMBER eras
ME WORKMEN
A Large Number Expected
to Arrive in the City
Tomorrow.
rORCt or WHITE MEN
NOW HANDLING LUMBER
Merchants Not Worried About the
Strike and Will Have the Usual
Number at Work by the End
of the Week.
There is practically no new devel
opment,' i in the strike situation save
for the fact that all of the men ex
cept those who have been allowed
the increased pay as demanded have
gone out.
It .seems to be well understood am
ong the lumber and crosstie merchant*
that they will not make the slightest
concession to the unions and from
all indications the fight will be fougnt
on the lines now prevailing.
A large number of the dealers have
engaged hands front this and other
states and the first large delegation
of inrportaited labor is expected to
reach the city today.
While it is true that a majority of
the business is tied up it lis very for
tunate that the strike has occurred
at a dull season and the business t
netaniaUTially sintering.
QftyMbs S. Hirstli At Cos., had a
bnaSlfPWew force of. men compose.!
of d'ii'lles’yotifemay and their, repfi'
senlativd, E. J. Allen, advtises the
News that others will reach here to
day and his business will go on as
usual.
The generalii impression among the
lumbermen and others in a position
to know, that the strike wSU be one
of short duration and the interest of
the port will not suffer by reason of
itss occurring.
It is understood that a Darien man
was in the city yesterday and stated
to the lumbermen- that he could fur
nish any number of men from that
port as the prices paid here are about
twenty-five cents a day higher than
laborers get there for like work.
The lumbermen seem to be cheerful
and are not the leaist worried over
the situation.
WHERE ARE THEY?
Dixville Property Owner Wants to
Know What Has Become of
the Mounted Police.
Editor News:
What lias mecome of our mounted
police? Do they still exist and i r so
why do they not patrol certain por
tions of the city, where police protec
tion is needed?
If there is one place in the city
needing the attention of the officers
(more tl>an .another it certaiini,y is
out at Dart’s hall. Oue of the partiess
who is responsible for the publication
of this article had to be aroused from
beu last night about midnight and
telephone to the bartracks for officers
to be sent to quell disturbances in
that portion of the city above re
ferred to. Men, women and children
all seemed to want to put a coat of
red on, “fighting’ cursing- and throw
ing of brick bats, seemed to be the
order of business, which was indulged
in to their heart's content as there
no where be seen an otTaer to “ call
them down.”
If the police of our
city cannot prevent a recurrence of
such scenes in a civilized con-munity
some of the residents ot the cor.:muni
ty will haivo to do it for thorn.

Holding Interesting Meeting at Hot
Springs
Hot Springs, Va.. Aug. 26.—An in
telligent looking assembly of several
hundred jurists and members of tho
bar filled the rooms of the Homestead
hotel this morning, when President
Francis Rawle of Philadelphia, called
to order the twenty sixth annual con

lumbia La)w school.
President Rawle then proceeded
with his annual address, which was
mjasterly in its logical construction
and perspicuous diction and which
was followed with the closest atten
tion.
The recent epidemic of mob vio
lence and its remedy were touched
uiion in the address and survey of
the recent enactments of some of the
states and another subject that inter
ested the listeners immensely. It was
a long paper, but the scholarly charac
ter of the address, and the bright
humorous flashes xvhich relieved the
long review served to isduce patience
and; promote good nature among the
listening lawyers.
The annual address of the president
and the reports of thie other officers

YACHTS IB RACE
FOR THIRD TIME
— * — _
Reliance and Shamrock 111
Will Try for Honors
Again Today.
PROBABLY THE LAST RACE
If the American Boat Wins the Fun
Will All be Over and the Cup
Will Remain With the
New York Yacht Club.
The third, and, in all probability,
the last of the international yacht
races between the Reliance and Sham
rock 111., will occur this morning.
There is but little doubt in the
minds of everybody that the cup will
remain over here for a few years more
at least. The Shamrock ill. is a good
boat, probably tiie best that lias ever
come over and tried to lift the cup,
but, the American yacht is just a little
better and faster.
Two races have already occurred,
the Relianse being victorious in both.
The third will occur today, if the
Reliance again wins, it will be all over.
However, if the Shamrock should win,
which is very doubtful, another race
would tie necessary, and should she
win again, then the boats would have
the fifth race, as it takes three out of
five to decide the winner.
All the Shamrock supporters and
admirers are gone, and not a bet can
be secured, even at big odds. While
the Irish boat, has showed up well in
the two races: it lias been demon
strated that tiie Reliance is the better
brat- in a light breeze, a heavy breeze,
with the wind, to tiie windward, and,
in fact, in every way—and nothing but
an accident wilt hardly keep her from
winning the third race of the series
today, and the cup will stay with the
New York Yacht club.

VETERANS HELD
LIVELY MEETING
Local Camp is Now Having
Trouble Over the
Crosses.
HELD A MEETING YESEERDAV
It is Claimed that Eight or Ten in
This County Have Crosses and
Who Are Not Entitled
to Them.
Tho veterans of Glynn county arc
in quite a dispute at present, catiscc
by the crosses of honor which have
been presented by the Daughters of
tho Confederacy, and which was ex
plained at length in these columns
yesterday morning by a card from Mrs
E., F. Coney, president of the organ
zatioii.
As was staled yesterday (he veter
aiiis had a meeting at the office of Dr,
W. B. Burroughs yesterday afternoon,
and anything bul hadnony existed,
and the meeting ended rather ai
rur-tly.
It seems that eight or ton veterans
in this cuonty have been.given these
crosses by the Daughters, and other
veterans claim that they do not de.
serve them, or rather that they have
not shown the proper credentials to
obtain them. Letters were addressed
to these eight or ten veterans a few
days since ordering them to ne at tut
meeting to ne held yesterday alter
ternoon and show why they were eu
titled to the crosses.
A majority of he old warriois were
at the meeting, and with them they
brought many letters and recommen
dations dating back in the curly six
ties. The veterans protested againsi
be.ng charged with procuring crosses
.under liaise pretenses, and the
meeting came to an end without any
filial action.
it is undeivdood that one of tlx*
veterans was very indignant at the
charge, amd yesterday sent the cross
presented him back to the ladies, with
the statement that he would no lon
ger remain a member of the veterans
organization in this county.

MORE TROUBLE WITH
EMPLOYES OF B. & B.
WATCHING OUR VAGRANT LAW
It Looks Like North Carolina Needs
One Also.
Raleigh. N. C., Aug.2ti, The North
Carolina authorities are watching
with interest the operations of the
Georgia vagrant law. There is a law
in North Carolina against vagrancy,
hut it is not, enforced. It is not known
why there is no enforcement; whet her
tiie law is regarded as too lax and
weak, or whether tiie officials are fail
ing to do their duty.
There are nul a few idlers, and there
are many negro ones. Some off ixe lat
ter who will accept work will only do
il for three or four hours. Some of
the leading negroes in the Stale de
clare that they intend to take up this
mat ter.
A number of them have read the
ro(H>rt in lhe Constitution of the ac.
tion of tile Atlanta negroes in appear
ing against the disorderly of their race,
and say t hey regard I his as a good ex
ample to follow.
it is very certain that never before
was there such a demand for lalxxr,
particularly negro labor, on ihe farm,
as t here now is in North (Carolina, and
wages were never so high as at pres
ent . Eighty-live per cent of Ihe coun
ties in the Stale make tllls rejaxi't of
scarcity of lalxxr - t hese complaints
coming, in fact, front all counties save
l hose west of the Blue Ridge, in w hich
there is practically no negro labor.
There are live counties beyond the
mountains in which a negro is a cu
riosity, and in one county they arc not
permitted to either reside or work,
tlxis county being Mitchell, long t iie
home of ex-Hnited States Senator
Pritchard, and t he strongest, Republi
can county in North Carolina.
A number of I lie farmers appear to
have hopes that negroes will return
from the north and west insufficient
numbers to lighten the great demand
for black lalxor. In the past fourteen
years over 75,000 liave left, Hie State,
about, 30,090 going south and south
west.
It is uot, probable that, more than
1,000 iiave returned.
HEAVY PERFUMERY BILL.
The English King, It Seems, Takes
His Baths in it.
London, Aug. 26. A London paper
this week contributes the information
that ‘from March till midsummer
King Edward's perfumery bill amount

extraordinary sum to pay for scents
and soaps, yet. it is not hard to prove
that the kings of England have been
in the habit of spending more money
in three months on their toilet acces
sories titan many workingmen get for
two years’ toil. In the window of a
certain shop in the neighborhood of
Charing Cross is to he seen tho framed
