DAY OF RECKONING FOR
UNITED STATES COMING
London Times" Predicts
Economic Crisis.

LONDON, March a.-ReferrinC to the
diminution OF the strength of the New
York associated banks. the Times
says that the mysteriously large re-
ductions Of net deposits effected in the
last quarter OF 1902 have usually been
the result. not of the real liquidation
90 excessive commitments. but OF trans
icrs OF indebtedness TO European cap
italists who we're ready. for handsome
consideration. to take over for time
these attempts to put of the evil day
when the United States business world
will have 20 own that IL has bitten Off
more than il can chew"
The Times says that during the last
three or four years the United States has
had more success than would have been
possible in any other country, adding:
NO country can show contempt for
sound business rules with inpunity. and
he impunity apparently enjoyed By the
United States. in disregarding the laws
of economies. is a consequence OF that
country's s youth, and merely amounts 10
a delay in the day OF reckoning fc- each
occasion of economic debauch."

DOES NOT BELIEVE
FULLER WILL RESIGN
Attorney General Knox Has Heard
Nothing Credible to That Effect.

The report that Chief Justice Fuller
OF the United States Supreme Court IS
about to resign is without foundation. q"
said Attorney General Knox, in Pitts
burg Saturday night.
Justice Fuller is in as good health
as he has been for fome years. The
idea OF his resigning arose probably be-
ceause he is just now approaching the
age limit of seventy. when he may re-
tire il he chooses so TO do. but may
serve on until he elects TO retire There
is probably some confusion in the pub
lie mind on this matter. The law does
not require a justice OF the United
States Supreme Court 10 retire when the
age limit is reached and he may serve
on indefinitely after this time. as indeed
many OF them have done. Justice Shi-
ras exercised the right because he chose
TO do So"

TO TRY AN EXPERIMENT
IN CIVIL SERVICE WORK
Woman to Make Trip to Arrange for
Examinations.

A trip to arrange for the holding Of
civil service examinations in various
cities OF the United States is to be made
by one OF the women clerks Of the Civil
Service Bureau.
This is in the nature OF an innovation.
Hitherto all such trips have been made
by men. Until an application was made
recently by one OF the women Of the
bureau the sending OF women on this
work had not been considered seriously
The Commissioners came 70 the con-
clusion this morning that the expert
ment would be tried. The person 10 re-
ceive the appointment, however, has not
been selected.
The success OF this first venture and
the capability shown by the pioneer in
covering The field will decide the policy
Of the bureau with regard 10 future ap-
plications from women for such work.

JOHN v. GATES TO REPLY
To J. PIERPONT MORGAN
Will Discuss Bankers Charge That He
is "a Dangerous Man"

LOUISVILLE. Ky, March 9.-The an
nouncemenJ that the Interstate Com
merce Commission will SIT IN New York
on March p 10 continue the hearing of
the case Of the Railroad Commission OF
Kentucky against the Atlantic Coast
Line. in the celebrated Louisville and
Nashville merger case. is OF more
than ordinary interest on account OF .i,a
expected purpose of John ". Gates 20
say some things.
At the first hearing Of the case. J.
Plerpont Morgan. in answer to questions
put by Col. Bennett H. Young said THAI
he considered Mr.. Gates "a dangerous
man" in railroad finances. George w
Perkins and others Of the firm OF Nor
gan & Co made use OF similar express
sions. and their testimony went to set
up the theory that the Morgan activity
in the settlement following the Louis
vile and Nashville coup. explained by
Gates. was based upon the belief that st
was necessary TO the preservation OF the
financial stability of the railroads of the
country that the control OF the Louis
Vile and Nashville be not left in Mr.
Gates hands.
The commission had hardly adjourned
before Mr.. Gates requested another
hearing, and it is said that he has prom
ised to give the whole inside" of the
merger deal. A reply 10 Mr.. Morgan S
Characterization of him as "a dangerous
man" is expected. and it Will no doubt
be an interesting one. The members of
the Kentucky Commission, Attorney
General Pratt and Colonel Young viii

Colonel Young will probably examine
Mr. Gates, and may be expected to ask
some perti7ent questions.

Two Teams Will Cross
Bats Here This
Afternoon.
GOOD GAME IS LOOKED FOR
Both Teams Have Seen Strengthened
Since Their Last Battle and
the Games ShC~ld All
be interesting,

Brunswick fans will, this afternoon
have the pleasure of seeing a base
ball game and one that promise
to be interesting and exciting, The
contesting teams will hc the Bruins
wick PILOTS, who have established
for themselves this year an unusually
good record, and the Fort Scrcven
team from Savannah, which has been
playing good ball all during the sea
son
The soldiers have already crossed
bats with the Pilots in three games
: this season, and We're defeated in
all of them, but it took some good
hard playing to do it. The soldiers
have greatly strengthened their team
since their last visit, and are expected
to put up good game. The Pilots.
too, have strengthened somewhat,
and they feel confident Of again MAX
ing it three straights.
The game will be called al $50 ana
it is expected that large crowd will
witness the game, inasmuch as we
have not had a contest now for sew
crai weeks.
Grimes will probably repose on the
slab for the Pilots this afternoon,
while Werner, the southpaw, will bo
in the firing line for the visitors.

YACHTS TO RACE
FOR THIRD TIME
=
Reliance and Shamrock iii
Will Try for HOnOrs
Again Today.
PROBABLY THE LAST RACE
If the American Boat Wins the Fun
Will All be Over and the Cup
viii Remain With the
New York Yacht Club.

The third, and, in all probability
the last of the international yacht
! races between the Reliance and Sham
rock Ill, will occur this morning.
There is but little doubt in the
minds of everybody that the cup will
remain over here for a few years more
at least. The Shamrock Ill. is a good
boat, probably the best that has ever
come over and tried to lift the cup,
but the American yacht is just a little
better aid faster
Two races have already occurred,
the Relianse being victorious in both.
The third will occur today. If the
Reliance again wins, it will be ali over.
However, if the Shamrock should win,
which is very doubtful, another race
would be necessary, and should she
win again, then the boats would have
the fifth race, as it takes three out of
five to decide the winner.
All the Shamrock supporters and
admirers are gone, and not bet can
be secured, even at big odds. While
the Irish boat has showed up well in
the two races: it has been demon
strated that the Reliance is the better
b)at-in a light breeze, heavy breeze,
with the wind, to the windward, and,
in fact, in every way-and nothing but
an accident will hardly keep her from
winning the third race of the series
today, and the cup will stay with the
New York Yacht club.

VETERANS HELD
LIVELY MEETING
-
Local Camp is Now Having
Trouble Over the
Crosses.
HELD A MEETING YESTERDAY
1t is Claimed that Eight or Ten in
This County Have Crosses and
Who Are Not Entitled
to Them.

The veterans of Glynn county are
ID quite a dispute at present. causeC
by the crosses of honor which have
been presented by the Daughters OF
the Confederacy, and which was ex
planned at length in these columns
yesterday morning by a card from Mrs
f.. f. Coney, president OF the organ
zation.
AS was stated yesterday the veter
ans had meeting at the office OF DR.
w. b. Burroughs yesterday afternoon
and anything but harmony existed
anG the meeting ended rather al
ruEtly,
II seems that eight or ten veterans
in this cuonty have been given these
crosses by the Daughters, and other
veterans claim that they do not de
serve them, or rather that they have
not shown the proper credentials tc
obtain them. Letters were addressed
days since ordering them to De al tut
meeting to he held yesterday alter
ternoon and show why they were en-
titled to the crosses.
A majority of he old warriors were
at the meeting, and with them they
brought many letters and recommen
dations dating back in the early six
tics. The veterans protested agains
Le.ng charged with procuring crosses
under Ialse pretenses, and The
meeting came to an end without any
final action.
1t is understood that one OF thu
veterans was very indignant at tn,
charge and yesterday sent the cross
presented him back to the ladies', with
the statement that he would no lon
ger remain a member of the veterans
organization in this county

Men Notified That They
Would Work GnIy
On Half Time
A NUMBER OF THEM REFUSE
ITO ACCEPT TIT. BIG CUT
Orders Were Issued Yesterday That
Employees in this Department of
the Shops Should Work Only
Every Other Day.

II will be remembered that the en-
gineers of the line have served no
tee THAI they will not work after
September | unless there is granted
very perceptiblc Increase in their
pay
So far the increase has not been al
lowed and it is expected that the men
will resign their places on the first
OF the month unless some concession
is made on the salary line.
The trouble this time is in the cal
department of the general shops in
this city When the men employed
in this branch of the service went
TO work yesterday morning they were
advised by the foreman, II. II. McAl-
lister that acting under Instructions
Of General Manager Berry, the men
in that department would only be EN-.
pioyed every other day from now un
I'll the first or middle OF September.
This state of affairs did not meet
with the approval of the men thus
employed and number of them ten
dered their designations and walked
out
An effort was made to see General
Manager Berry yesterday afternoon
Dut inquiry at his office revealed the
fact that he was out OF the CITY m
consequence of which he was not
seen
Other officials Of the line were
questioned on the subject but they
were rot in position to discuss the
matter.
One Of the men who resigned WAS
seen by News representative and
confirmed the facts as outlined above
and says that as soon as he was ad.
vised by the foreman of the plan on
foot he Immediately left the service

LUMBER DEAL LERS
SECURE WORKMEN
49, -
A Large Number Expected
to Arrive in the City
Tomorrow.
FORCE OF WHITE MEN
NOW HANDLING LUMBER
Merchants Not Worried About the
Strike and Will Have the Usual
Number at Work by the End
of the Week.

There is practically no new devel
opments in the strike situation save
for the fact that all of the men ex
cept those who have been allowed
the increased pay as demanded have
gone out.
1t seems to be we'll understood am
ong the lumber and crosstie merchants
that they will not make the slightest
concession to the unions and from
all indications the fight will be fought
ON the lines now prevailing.
A large number of the dealers have
engaged hands from this and other
states and the first large delegation
of importated labor is expected to
reach the city today.
While it is true that majority OF
the business is tied up it ds very for
runade that the strike has occurred
at a dull season and the business Is
net materially suffering.
4Chealas S. TIirseh 4 Co, had a
brand new force of. men composed
of Whites yesterday and their repro:
sentative, E. ]. Allen, advises. the
News that others will reach here to-
day and his business will go on as
usual
The generaIi impression among the
lumbermen and others in position
to know, that the strike will be one
OF short duration and the interest d
the port will not suffer by reason OF
itss occurring.
1t is understood that Darien man
was in the city yesterday and stated
to the lumbermen that he could fur
nish any number of men from that
port as the prices paid here are about
twenty-five cents a day higher than
laborers get there for like work.
The lumbermen seem to be cheerful
and are mot the least worried over
the situation.

MORE TROUBLE WITH
EMPLOYEES OF B. & R.
WATCHING OUR VAGRANT LAW
1t Looks Like North Carolina Needs
One Also


| Raleigh, n. G., Aug. 26 The Nortl
Carolina authorities are watchm,
with interest the operations of tn,
Georgia vagrant law. There is a Law
III North Carolina against vagrancy
but it is not enforced. 1t is not know
why there is no enforcement; whether
the law is regarded as too lax anC
weak, or whether the officials are fail
ing to do their duty.
There are not a few idlerS, aud there
are many negro ones. Some of the lat
ter who will accept work will only dc
it for three or four hours. Some of
the leading negroes i'm the State de-
clare that they intend to take up this
matter.
A number OF them have read he
report in the Constitution of the ac.
tion of the Atlanta negroes in appear
ing against the disorderly of their race,
and say they regard This us a good ex-
ample to follow.
1t is very certain that never before
was there such demand for labor,
particularly negro labor, on the farm,
as there now is in North Carolina. and
wages were never so high as at pres
ent. Eighty-iive per cent of the coun-
ties in the State make this report Of
scarcity OF labOr-these complaints
coming, in fact, from all counties save
those west of the Blue Ridge, in which
there is practically no negro labor
There are five counties beyond the
mountains in which negro is Il Gu
riosity, and in one county they are not
permitted to either reside or work
this county being Mitchell, long the
home of ex-United States Senator
Pritchard, and the strongest Republi-
can county in North Carolina.
A number of the farmers appear to
have hopes that negroes will return
from the north and west in sufficient
numbers to tighten the great demand
for black labor. In the past fourteen
years over $4,000 have left the State
about 10000 going south and south,
west.
1t is not probable that more than
! 900 have returned.
