eumed work after only two days sinter-
mission, the Globe mills and the Suther-
land mills had no strike, and the Warwick,
small. factory farhest up the canal, is
said TO have restored the old scale and
gone back to work. Thus there seems to
be no unity of action, either among mill
owners or operatives. 1t seems to be
sort of go-as-you-please on both sides.
How ii will end remains to be seen. The
strikers have resisted the overture made
by the mills in opening their doors for
their return, anG now these presidents
have ordered the mills shut down until
the operatives are ready to go to work
Neither side is disposed to give in, and
yet neither side relishes the strike.

FIGHT FOR THE COUNTY SITE.
ABBEYHLE AND ROCHELLE IN BAT
TIE ARRAY At THE CAPITAL.

COntenIing Factions Before the
House Committee on County Mat
tcrs-Long and Heated Arguments
in Which Fraud In Charged in the
wilcox EIectiOn-Parties Much
wrought Up over fhe Anair-Three
Elections Have Been Held.
Atlanta. Ga, Nov. 8O.-The Wilcox coun-
ty court house fight was opened this after
noon before the House committee on coun-
ty matters, Mr. Moore of Carroll pres.d-
ing.
Large delegations from both AbbevEle
and Rochelle were present to back up their
respective SIDES, and long and heated ar
guments were made by representatives of
both factions.
Ex-senator Graham of AppIing county
presented the case for Rochelle and Hon
Dupont Query of Macon and Col. Wiley
Burnett of Athens spoke for Abbevile
Mr.. Graham charged wholesale fraud
on the part of the Abbeville people, and
went into details TO show that they had
registered peop,e from other counties, peo-
pie nobody had ever heard of before, and
had voted them in the election.
Mr.. Query, speaking for Abbevlle, said
that there was undoubtedly fraud on both
sides. He took the position that il was
the province of the legislature to judge
the result without reference to the action
of the secretary of state and 10 pass the
bill ordering the removal of the county
site from Abbeville to Rochelle, or not, as
it seemed just in its wisdom.
The fight between -AbbeVille and Ro-
chelle for the county site has been going
on for years. Three elections have been
held on the subject The first two Able
Vile won but the last one Rochelle claims
to have been the winner, and therefore,
demands the removal of the court house.
The county is SO worked up over the
matter that Mr. Graham said to-day that
If the present court house should be burn
cd down, the people of the county would
never build another one there. He class
ed the fight as between the substantial
people in favor of Rochelle and the poll
ticians in favor of Abbeville
