NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb. S.-Ter-
Tor reigns at the University of the
. South. Six hundred students are in
constant state of alarm because of
threats of the mountaineers to blow
up the college buildings.
The president of the university and
two of the professors have fed owing
to threats made against their lives.
The whole trouble is due to the es-
tablishment OF laundry in the col
lege building. The mountaineers
used to do the washing for the stu
dents, which was their chief occupa-
ton. When the laundry was estab-
lished they lost the work They
burned the laundry down and anoth-
one was built. Now the mountain

AGE HANpIeAps LABOR.
Protest Made to Federation is Found
to Have Basis of Reason.

CHICAGO, Feb tS.-Investigation of
the question of,@n age limit among
workmen, which~ssased a furious de-
bate in the Chicago Federation of
Labor last Sunday afternoon. proved
that it is becoming more difficult every
day in and about Chicago for skill
ed man over 40 years old to obtain
new employment.
Though officials of big corpora
tions and companies denied that they
discharge or retire man because he
is 40 or so years of age, the preponder
derance of evidence shows that
skilled mechanic, engineer, carpen-
ter, in fact, artisan of any class,
seeks employment, his age is often
times serious bar.
Regarding employment age limits
an official of the Illinois Central said:
I'VE do not employ inexperienced
men who are over 35 years of age,
nor experienced men who are over
As years of age, and we believe there
are very good reasons for not doing
so 1t is not fair to us nor to our
men to employ those who are past
As and entities them to pension af-
ter having been in the service of the
company ten years. The man who
has reached the age of As is too old
to learn railroading, and II he is in
the business when he reaches that
age he should have become fixture
with some road, if his services are of
any value"
An official OF another road said:
I'VE do not refuse to hire men who
have reached the age of 35, but we
simply say to such that they cannot
take advantage of our pension sys-
tenn"
Gerferal Manager Delano of the
Chicago, Burlington G. Quincy rail-
road said: "If corporation employ
ing a large number of men retained
all its old employees and hired new
ones who were over As years old, the
average would soon be SO high as to
injure the efficiency of the entire ser
vice. While we retain old employ
es as a rule as long as they can do
the work, 1t is but natural that in
employing new men we should look
for young ones"
Joseph Donnersberger, president OF
the South Park board said: "There
is good deal OF truth nowadays in
the idea that men over As are becom.
| ing more nearly useless in the indus
trial world. AS business has be
come more intricate large employ
ers reason that If they begin to teach
man his duties at that age, when
he has them thoroughly mastered he
has become too old to be useful"

false as Mr.. Collins has no such plan

basis, but according to the interview.

HOUSE BADLY SCARED.
Republican Leaders Haunted by the
Specter Of Tariff Revision.

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.--Whether
to do something for Cuba
and nothing for the Amer
lean consumers, or something
for both the Cubans and the people of
the United States is the problem in
which the Republican managers Of
the house of representatives are pray
erfully. almost tearfully, wrestling.
1t is just dawning upon the house
managers that out in the west there
is strong sentiment in favor of re-
the steel trust and on the products of
a number of other big corporations.
From that section of the country
comes a great demand for doing
something for the consumers in our
own country. If the tariff question
is to be opened for the benefit of for
eigneis, they say, why not open 1t
for the benefit of our own people? In
this way the general tariff question
and the question of concessions to
Cuba are bound together.
President Roosevelt stands firm
for Cuba, and he has almost convinc-
ed the Republican managers of the
house that they will have to grant
concession. But at the first sign of
yielding to Cuba, many western rep
whose constituents are
interested in beet sugar. or who are
action that will reduce the
price on trust-made goods, come for
ward with their proposition to go in
to general tariff regulation as well as
to grant favors to the Cubans. This
conflict OF forces has brought about
a most hazardous situation.
