Clemson College, via Calhoun,
May 9-1.30 A. NJ: The board of
trustees of the college met in Presi-
dent Hartzog's Office at s o'clock to-
night TO investigate the recent trouble
here. Eleven of the thirteen mem
bers of the board are present, as fol-
lows: Col. Simpson, Senator Till
man, Messrs. Tindal, Donaldson, Nor
ris, Evans, Bradley, Wannamaker,
Hardin, Garris and Sease. Those
absent are Messrs. Smythe and
Bowen.
The board, after brief secret ses,
sion, announced that its session
would be open TO the public and that
it was the intention to sift the whole
matter thoroughly from every stand.

it: ave propose to get at the very
marrow of the thing if it takes

This closed the ThornWell case
and the board then took up the case
of the sophomore class and decided
that they would not receive petition
for reinstatement of the class as
body, bat that they would receive
them from individuals. Senator Till
man said that one petition was as
good as one hundred; that what they
wanted was to establish principle;
some rule for the guidance in cases
of rebellion.
Cadet Douthit then took charge of
the case of the sophomores, and pre-.
sented the petition asking for rein
statement on condition that Thorn
we'll be reinstated. Sanator Tillmsn
said that this was an implied threat
and it ought not to be received.
Douthit had one petition that did not
have this Objectionable feature and
ia was accepted. A lengthy state
ment was presented by Douthit, show
ing that the sophon ore had attempt.
ed to appeal to the board and that
they had been refused permit to 60
to eee Colonel Simpson.
There was lot of testimony by
Roberts and Zeigler, as to the pur-
pose of the appeal to the board, all
of which indicated that the class dis
trusted President Hartzog and were
afraid to forward their appeal through
him.
SAT the afternoon session Presi-
dent Hartzog said as his personal
character was involved he asked that
the meeting be removed to the chapel
where all could hear Several cadets
testified, the burden of whose testi-
momy was that it was not the custom
to allow students to leave the college
during the week but on Fridays and
Saturdays; that it was the general
belief that President Hartzog knew
why Cadet Hill wanted to see Colo-
mel Simpson; that they would not ap-
peal to the board through the presi-
dent, believing he would bias their
case; that there was no attempt or
to coerce the faculty; that
the class was willing to submit the
whole case to the trustees, as they
had confidence in them.
Col. Simpson asked to be sworn.
as he had been dragged into the
matter and gave history of his con-
nection with it. Qaite little breeze
was raised when Attorney Martin,
of Anderson, was on the stand by
Presidents Hartzpg's statement that

APPEAL OF CADET THoRNWELL,

through his father, DR.. j. Fl. Thorn.
we'll. 1t is as follows:
To the Honorable Board of Trus.
tees of Clemson College-Gentle,
men: Edward A. Thornwell, stu
dent of the sophomore class, through
his father, j. II. Thornwell, hereby
appeals from the decision of the fac
ulty of the College, made on the 23d
day of April, 1902, suspending the
said Edward Allison Thornwell from
College 10 the end of the present ses-
sion, on the following grounds to wit:
First. Because it has not been
shown that the said Edward Allison
Thornwell has been guilty of any Of
fence against any of the rnles or Or
ders of said College.
Second. Because the act charged
has never heretofore been considered
by the students or treated by the
faculty as an offence, but has been
generally practiced and concurred in.
Because the punishment which the
president imposed is unusual and ex-
cessive for the offence charged.
James Il. Thornwell.
Edward Allison Thornweli.
ORDER OF BUSINESS.
1t was agreed that the grounds
upon which the faculty suspended
Thornwell should first be presented
to the trustees, and Prof. Bracket,
who was the professor 10 charge of
the chemical laboratory, and who
reported young Thornwell to the
faculty, was the first witness. 1t
was agreed that all the witnesses in
the case should be put on oath. The
testimony was taken by stenogra
pher.
While the hearing was in progress
the room was crowded with members
of the faculty, students and specta-
tors. The most intense interest ws5
taken in everything said and done.
1t was realized that Clemson College
is passing through crisis, and that
the good name and reputation Of
more than one person is at stake.
POSITION OF THE FACULTY.
The faculty had appointed q com
mittee to present statement giving
the history of the entire case. This
statement was presented and covers
u dozen tyewritten pages. This
committee, after presenting the
statement, declined to put up any
witnesses, or to cross examine wit
'nesses who were put up, as that
would make it appear that the fac
ulty itself was on trial.

PRESIDENT HARTZOG TEsTIFIEs.

PRESIDENT HARTZOG TESTIFIES.
After Prof. Bracket got through
President Hartzog was sworn. He
testified that he took no actual part
in the suspension of Cadet Thorn
well; that he merely presided over
the faculty meeting aud saw that an
impartial hearing was given the case.
The witness was questioned very
closely by DR.. Thornwell in regard
to certain letters that had passed be
tween them Immediately after the
boy''s suspension. 1t was brought
out that DIR. Thornwell had written
President Hartzog, appealing to. him
to reverse the faculty's decision or to
carry the appeal up to the trustees,
and that President Hartzog had not
answered the letter. His excuse was
that the matter had gone SO far that
it was going to be investigated by
the trustees anyhow, and he did not
want to prejudice himself or commit
himself by giving transcript, Of the
testimony upon which the faculty
based it's action.
The taking of the testimony was
very slow and tedious and was very
minute on all particulars. Finally at
1870 a. M, it was agreed to take an
adjournment until 9 o'clock, When
another start would be made. 1t is
probable that the board will not get
through before Saturday night.
Mr.. Walter McIver, of Charleston,
is here representing a committee of
parents of students of the college
living in the vicinity of Charleston,
and several other leading citizens
from different parts of the State are
also here. !

New York, Oct. 11.-Eforts to set
tie the anthracite coal strike by con-
ference between leading politicians
and the coal operators in this city
have so far proved in vain. Senators
Platt, Quay and Penrose and Cover
nor Odell Of New York again met the
representatives of the coal interests
in a lengthy conference, which adj
journed during the afternoon, leaving
the situation practically unchanged.
The four politicians were closeted
in Senator Platt's room from 10
o'clock until 1890, when Chairman
Thomas of the Erie road and Presi-
dent Baer of the Reading Joined them
to receive any proposition which they
had to offer as the result of their ses-
sion. They remained but a little
while, when the conference dispersed
and Chairman Thomas, speaking for
the operators, gave out the following
statement:
1T was impracticable to reach any
conclusion of the strike situation on
the basis suggested"
The exact nature of the proposals
made to the operators is not known
Whatever they were they were reject
ed, and there is no Indication that any
definite step has been made toward a
settlement of the strike. It is under
stood that another conference will be
held on Tuesday next.

President Discusses Strike Situation
With Commissioner.

Washington, Oct. II. - President
Roosevelt had a consultation with
Commissioner Of Labor Wright dur
ing the day. The president spoke of
the great seriousness of the situation,
but gave no intimation of any further
steps looking to a settlement which
he had in mind. He again inquired
about the arbitration act of 1898,
which he had before discussed with
Mr.. Wright to satisfy himself that it
applied only to common carriers and
not to industrial corporations. After
Mr.. Wright had explained the law
the president appeared convinced that
there was no chance for interference
through this instrumentality. There is
an intimation that the president will
appoint a commission in line with his
suggestion to Mr.. Mitchell if a settle
ment. fails, with a view to a thorough
investigation of the whole subject of
the strike and for the purpose of Sc
curing data upon which to base rec
omendations to congress, but this can
not be verified and it is said was not
preached at the conference with Mr..
Wright. 'a.t r
