SPECIAL to GreenviIle News.
Columbia, Sept 4. The strik.
ing operatives are leaving the city
and good many are going to the
mills about Augusta. The Gotten
mills are getting in additional help
and report that stack of applica-
tions were received today.
1t is claimed that fifteen opera
tives who have been out on the
strike returned to their work today
and that there are more spindles
and looms at work than there have
been at any time since the strike
was ordered.
The mill officials are receiving
letters from all parts of the State
Offering to come to Columbia and
to work. One party in Darling
ton county will come here and
writes that he has twelve in fami-
ly who are able to work in the
mills. 1t is these kind Of offers
from which the mills expect to
more than make up their help lost
on account of tho strike
The statement is made that all
of the families, with very few OK
ceptions of the strikers have NOV.
cd out of the mill houses and made
arrangements. Some of them have
left the city and others for the
present are living in other rented
houses. The disposition on the part
of the mill operatives who are out
on tho strike is to get out of the
mill houses as soon as possible. -
The strikers insist that they have
no idea of giving up their fight
and that they are out to stay out
and that they can get other posi-
tions without the least trouble and
that the mills will suffer more
than they will.

Cotton Mill Organization.
Prominent Mill Men to Meet in
Greenville Nexs tuesday to Dis
tAe1Lsber-Q Qsestion. =


SpOSlut W uC OIdt6.
Florence, Sept. At is stated
tnat in order to more successfully
combat the union formed among
the operatives of the State, the
cotton mill men of South Carroll
ma will organize. A cotton mill
official, who passed through Flor
ence yesterday morning, said that
a meeting would he held in Green
vile Tuesday of next week for
the purpose, it is inferred from
what he SAID, of discussing union
labor. AT this meeting, it is said,
there will be representatives from
every cetton mill in the State,
and some sort of an organization
will be effected.
In talking yesterday morning
the cotton mill man used this ex
preston: cit has come to a pref
ty pass whore man cannot run
his own affairs. We cannot af-
ford to have the same conditions
here that prevail in the north,
where the Knights of Labor are
supreme, and you may go in your
order and have tho man laugh in
your face, and bs powerless to
enforce it,"
So from this it looks like there
will DO a sequel to the Colum bis
strike. 1t was understood from
what the official in question said
that the cotton mill mon of the
State have been in touch with the
Whaley mills during the trouble.

His Disappearance
No Longer a Mystery.
Frank G. Lecnuer, the Bank
Cashier, is Short Several
Thousand Dollars.


Timmonsville, Sept. Tho
sudden disappearance of Mr. Frank
e. Lechner, cashier of the Bank of
Timmonsville is no longer a mys-
terry. When the cashier first dis
appeared it was hoped that a sat-
isfactory explanation weuld be
Forthcoming, one that would not
involve his integrity, but an ex>
animation of the banks books dis
psls such hopes.
The directors have been bust
ly engaged in this work, and al
though they have only fairly be-
gun, it is ascertained that the cash
ier is short some IS, 900. What
a thorough search will reveal no
one can foresay. 1t is feared that
much more serious shortage will
be found. AS the examination
goes on it develops that Mr.. Lech>
nors' private affairs are in very
bad condition and he has proba-
bly, worried over them for some
time. His business plans did not
mature and he became desperate.
MIR. Lechnsr was bonded by a
security company to the amount
of $4,000.
The president of the bank, Mr..
John McSwsen, and the directors
announce that no patron of the
bank will suffer and that the stand
ing of the bank will not be impair
cd. A representative Of the sure
ty company will be hero tomor-
row.
The action of MIR. Lschner is a
great shock to the numerous
friends he had in the State.

that had been agreed upon, and none Of
the members were inclined to change
that action
It was rumored that Ed McKeever

sued before the body could be recovered.
