conversation with George Chadwell, of the lum-
Der firm Of Chadwell e. Brother, the chief topic
being the Sherman Davis controversy. Mr..
Chadweil said tnat Mr. Sherman was correct in

could be procured. The proof, ne said. was in
the shape of a book in possession of his brother.
James Chadwell, printed on Confederate paper
during the war, which contains a copy of the
correspondence in full, and which is Just as Gen.
Sherman related it, The Chadwells are wealthy
and highly respectable citizens of Wilmington,
and have been in the lumber business there Since

asked for militia. The strikers said they would
send committee to the mayors Office this even
ing, which was done The committee asked the
mayor to delay the exercise of authority until
Monday morning, by which time they would
have determined their course. He replied
that he had no authority to treat with them; that
they were law breakers. They complained that
the State laws were unnecessarily severe on
laboring men, and were referred to the Legisa
