BAKING POWDER.

way for July and August was 1850
These are the two heaviest months OF the
year. AS cold weather approaches there
is less travel, less cars are used and less men
are needed.
DENY IT is A STRIKE.
The conductors and motormen who are
members OF the union and remained with
the company deny that the action OF the
thirteen men who left can be con-
strued as a strike They left OF their OWE
accord, !" said one of the conductors last
night. without being ordered out by the
brotherhood, and those who remained In
the employ OF the railway are nos dlsloyal
to the organization. The question OF what
we shall do III the matter as
a trade organization will come up at the
meeting tomorrow night. Everything
connected with both sides Of the case, IN
GLIDING the demands Of the company and
the discharge of the men, will be discussed.
What action will be taken 1 cannot say.
There may be nothing done, and strike
might be ordered. In the latter event all
the motormen and conductors who belong
to the brotherhood will leave their cars"
THEY QUIT IN A HURRY.
The action OF the thirteen men in quitting
in advance of the meeting looks a little
hasty, bus probably they are the best
judges of their own conduct. "Rule No.
l6," continued the conductor, seems to be
the point which is causing the trouble. 1t
orders conductors to collect fares on
every car and register the same
II the cars are running together under one
conductor no passengers will be allowed to
transfer from one car to the other without
paying an extra fare. It was for exeout-
ing this rule against passenger that Con-
ductor Lee was discharged and yet the
company asks the other employees 20 swear
they will carry out the same rule. If rule
No. 16 is stricken from the books l doubt
If any conductor or motorman will decline
60 take the OATH
One of the discharged men said that the
officers claim to have a moral but not a
legal right to rule 16, and that conductors
are supposed to use discretion in exercising
1t. "If it is not legal rule, said he, sit
has no right to be on the books, and the COM
pany ought not to ask a man to swear to do
an illegal act.n

A PULL FOR THE COTTON.
Cheaper Rates Offered at Other Port
Than at Savannah.

Cheaper Rates offered at Other Ports
Than at Savannah.
Considerable talk was occasioned among
the railroad and cotton men, especially the
shippers, by the announcement several days
ago that Brunswick was Offering g cheaper
rate on cotton TO Liverpool than Savannah
is Offering. This was at first charged TO
discrimination on the part of the railroads
or the giving of rebates by a particular
line but sucE was found not to be the case
Investigation showed that the cheaper
rate to Liverpool was given by one ship
only, the reason being that she was very
large ship and the ship broker chartering
her found it necessary tn make a special
rate in order to secure his cargo within a
specified time aud save demurrage.
The Savannah brokers then wanted TO
know why it was that with three railroad
lines out of Montgomery to Savannah, this
port did not receive all the cotton from that
point In reply the railroads made the per-
tinent inquiry why the Savannah brokers
did not make cheaper rate If they wanted
Co take cotton away from Brunsw wick and
Charleston and other ports.
To this various replies are made. 1t is
claimed that the railroads make terminal
charges at Savannah that are not made at
Brunswick. 1t is said that the port charges
are higher at Savannah than at Bruins
wick and Charleston, though it
is not known whether this is
a fact. 1t is also said that the stevedores'
charges are higher in Savannah than in
the neighboring ports on account Of the
rules of the longshoremen's societies. AT
Brunswick, it is said, the longshoremen
work twelve hours q day, while at Savan-
nah If q gang gets in its seventy-t1ve bales
day by 10 o'clock the men quit and do no
more work that day. They draw their S5
each for the days work, however.
The chief obstacle to a reduction, how
ever, is believed by the railroads TO be the
uuwillingness Of the ship brokers to meet re-
auctions made i'll the rate elsewhere.
They do not do this, it is alleged, because
they feel that they can rest assured that the
cotton receipts of the port will furnish them
with all the freight they require to
fill their vessels and they do
not feel like cutting the rates and reducing
profits as long as they can maintain it and
get all the cotton needed to fill their char
ters.
On account Of this failure to enter into
competition 1t is claimed that great deal
of cotton that might be brought to Savan>
nah goes to other ports.
There seems to be an admission on both
sides that the rate should DO cheaper, but
it lies between the cotton brokers and the
railroads to point out the obstacle to a re-
duction.

ADD1E LARoCaR CAPTURED.
The Would-be Murderer Found in
FroRtown House.

The Would-be Murderer Found in a
FroRtown House.
Addie LaRoche, the man who stabbed
Michael Kairnes on Indian street yesterday
morning. an account Of which appeared In
the MORNING NEWS. was captured by
Mounted Policeman Eivers in house in
Guerard street lane at $50 O'Clock, five
hours after he committed the crime.
The work of the police in running down
the would-be murderer in such quick time
is highly commendable. LaRoche was
making preparations to leave the CITY when
he was surprised and arrested by Officer
Flyers. he submitted sullenly and declined
to make any statement about the affair.
Sollcitor-General Fraser committed La
Roche and his mistress, Annie Sewei, alias
Mary Sauls, TO jail yesterday afternoon.
The connection Of the woman with the
affair is now said to be almost equally as
bad as LaRoche's act. 1t is claimed by the
police that they have information that she
held Kairmes while LaRoche stabbed him.
The wounded man was reported dead
yesterday afternoon, but it was false re-
port. Kairnes' condition, however. ia
serious, but his physicians hope to prevent
fatal results. His greatest danger is from
blood poisoning.

oner. was shot in the breast by Bubba
Robinson in house in Yamacraw last

Dora was under a term Of imprisonment

barracks Is her second home and whenever
she gets a sentence she serves it by cleaning
up the city exchange, going there alone
in the morning and returning to
the barracks at night. The woman went to
the exchange as usual yesterday, and
worked hard until 6 o'clock. but instead of
going directly back to the barracks, she
thought she would make a short visit to
her Ysmacraw friends.
Dora forgot the fact that she was a
"trusty" prisoner, and drank liquor until
she was we'll intoxicated. After 10 O'Clock
Robinson got into difficulty with her and
she undertook to thrash him. He pulled
his pistol and sent 3S-calibsr bullet into
her left breast and then made his escape.
The police ambulance was sent for and
the woman taken TO the barracks, where
DR.. Comm attended her. He could not
extract the bullet as it penetrated too far,
but dressed the wound and sent the woman
TO the Georgia iufirmary. The wound,
while serious, is not necessarily fatal. The
police had not captured Robinson up to Q
O'clock

TIE NIGHT SCHOOL OPENED.

One Hundred Boys Put in Their An
pearance thu First Night.
The night school opened at the Whitfield
building last night with exactly 100 BOYS
in attendance They were bright, earnest
boys, too, and evidently mean to profit by
the opportunity offered them. About fifty
more will come in during the week.
The school was opened by Supt Baker and
Profs. Gillespie and O'Brieu. The boys
we're quickly separated into three grades or
divisions, A, B and q.
some or the boys were in attendance upon
the night school last year, aud others were
IN attendance upon the public schools.
Their ages run from IL to IS years and ole
would easily judge by their appearance
that they have to work for a living,
Supt. Baker gave short talk to the bows
on the opportunity offered them and the
good that might result TO them if they
made use of it.
Prof. Gillespie, principal of the school
made short address, giving the boys au
idea of what it was desired to accomplish.
Prot. Glllespie's address was highly appre-
ciated by the boys, who applauded heartily.
There were thtrty-eight boys in the highest
grade, thirty-six in the second grade and
twenty-six in the third grade, making ex-
actly 100 Ia all.
Supt. Baker decided that it would be
necessary 10 divide the school into four
grades, and that two additional teachers
would be needed, one to each grade. The
upper floor of the building has been parti-
toned off into four large rooms,
which will allow one room to
each grade. The room is well lighted with
gas and everything arranged necessary for
the comfort Of the pupils and teachers.
There is nothing luxurious about it, how
ever.
Supt. Baker was asked how long the night
school would be kept open and replied that
it would be kept open the same as the day
schools, provided the attendance keeps up .
The school is now part of the public
school system and will be provided for
accordingly SO long as there is demand
for it.
The hours Of the school are from 8 to 10
o'clock. Last yelr's experience showed
that 1t was impossible for many of the bows
to be on hand before o'clock, as they are
often confined ut their work until z o'clock
and after
Prof. O'Brien will make a speciality Of
bookkeeping in the highest grade, which is
an advantage greatly appreciated by the
boys.

WreckerF are again at work on the
Thunderbolt line of the Electric railway.
The II As O'Clock car from Thunderbolt last
night ran into a large piece Of wood driven
between the ties in a perpendicular position
at Cuyler swamp bridge, but luckily the
car was going at such fast rate Of speed
that instead of being thrown from the
track it broke the wood off at the ties.
The car had not proceeded fifty feet when
three shots were fred in its direction from
the woods, and Marshall Lee of Thunder -
bolt. who was among the passengers, fired
two shots toward the point where the
flashes were seen.
The passengers were badly scared and
we're glad when they reached the city.

went out to the scene OF the attempted
wreck In a special car to investigate the at-
fair.
This Is the second attempt TO wreck the
cars Of the Electric company, the FIRST hav-
ing been made at the Thunderbolt road
