ing as to whether the men who fought in the
war with Spain should be allowed to join the
Grand Army. Captain Fred. NJ. Yeager, OF

Hazleton. Pa, Aug. 25.-Seven hun
dred men employed at the Audenried
and Honey Brook stripplngs of the Lee
high and Wilkesbarre Coal company
went out on strike yesterday, and those
who did not strike were told to go home
by the company officials until the
grievances which caused the difficulty
are adjusted. The Inauguration of the
strike is said to be due to the dis
charge of two Hungarian night shift
laborers in the No. l stripping, whose
discharge, the men claim was unjust.
The company officials state that the
men were incompetent for which reas-
on their services were dispensed with
and two other laborers engaged. Sup

NOW FOR PASSENGER RATES.
VIII be Reduced ON Certain Roads by
the Commission Monday.

The Railroad Commission will meet
again tomorrow morning and reduce
passenger rates on certain roads in the
State-those whose net earnings show
that they can stand reduction. Among
these are the North Carolina Railroad
the Western North Carolina, the Viii
mington and Weldon, the Seaboard and
Roanoke. the Raleigh and CASTOR, Char
lotte and Atlanta Air Line, and Peters
burg Railroad.
The session of the Railroad Commits
sion yesterday was a very short one
only one matter claiming the attention
of the Commissioners. This was the
petition for an uptown telegraph office
at MOrganton.
Superintendent J. H. Drakeford, ot
Asheville, appeared with his attorneys
Mr.. II. G. Strong and Judge Avery
and opposed the change. He said he had
been sent by his company to Morgan
ton to make an examination of the sitlla'
ton and report thereon. He found the
office under its present management
we'll conducted, and the principal patrons
of it living near the depot and opposed to
the change. These, he said, were the
Alpine cotton mills, the deaf and dumb
institution, the insane asylum, the Nor
Canton Hardware company and others
whose business compose 80 per cent OF
that transacted by the office. He ascer-
tanned this per cent by going through
the files He said it would cost $40 to
make the change and that after it was
made it would cost $3.50 year more
than the receipts to run it. The office
now pays because there is an arrange
ment with the railroad company by which
the railroad pays the operator and gets
its telegraph service free.
Action on the petition was postponed
until March 18th, at which time al
parties interested are invited to be pres
ant and they will be granted hear
ing.
