Bevicr Barrica(les.

MACON, No., December l3.-The outlook
at Bevier presents a more serious aspect
than ever. John Atkinson, chairman
of the strikers and the head of the miners
federation in this district, said that the
strikers had one and one-half carloads of
timber coming with which they would erect
breastworks around the sites of the burned
buildings. This fact changes the 81 uat on
SO materially that it is difficult to say just
what action will be taken by the authorities.
1t may be a mere threat on Atkinson's part
but the attitude assumed by the chairman
and the attitude of the strikers indicate that
there is some foundation to the statement.
