VIII stop Courthouse Loafing.

One of the things which the new Board of
Works is expected to do is to see that the
basement of the courthouse occupied by the
city offices, is kept in cleaner condition.
At present it is so filthy that a woman hes
itates about entering But the condition Is
not due to any lack of duty upon the part
of the janitors, who are kept busy from
morning till night, but to the crowd of
loungers which is allowed TO hang about the
basement. It has been impossible to turn
these men out during the cold weather, for
a likely place TO pick up odd jobs Of work
Police Court draws a good crowd each day,

Unable to Increase Wages.

At the conference in Washington last
evening between Third Vice President Bald
win, of the Southern railway, and a commit
tee of employees. the former presented a
pamphlet showing why the company is un-
able. at present, to make the general in
crease in wages desired and another con-
tanning a schedule removing inequalities now
existing in wages, ETC., by reason of the
roads having been operated under separate
arrangements. The operation of this sched-
nle. Mr. Baldwin says, will be to increase the
expenses Of operating the system. The rail-
way officials feel confident that after the
employees become familiar with the condi-
ton of affairs they are shown by the
pamphlet to exist an an1icable termination
of the disagreement will be arrived at
