DARIEN STRIKE REVIEWED.
Plays an Important Part in Mari
time Suit in United states Court.

An interesting bit of testimony in
the trial of the case of the Acties-
elskabet Barfod against the Hilton and
Dodge Lumber Company in the United
States court yesterday, was that of
Mr.. R. D. Wylly, a member of the
firm of Schmidt and Wylly, lumber
exporters of Darien. His testimony
related to the strike which took place
at Sapelo in 1900.
This testimony is very material in
the case, since the defendants in the
libel suit, plead it as the cause for
the delay in furnishing and loading
certain lumber as per charter party.
Mr.. Wylly told of the strike, and of
how his company sent to Savannah
for men to take the place of the
strikers; of the attempt of the new
tack by the strikers and the conse-
quent loss of life; of the killing of
the stevedore, and other matters rel
alive to the strike which constituted
interesting testimony to all, except
perhaps libellant's counsel, who inter
posed frequent objections.
The suit is instituted for the re-
covery of $3.50, demurrage resulting
from the delay in loading the lumber
The libellant is represented by w. c.
Charlton and the respondent by Gar
rard & Meldrim. The arguments will
probably be finished to-day when
Judge Speer will take the matter un-
der Amusement, and render decision

LADIES' CUP TOURNAMENT.

Considerable interest is being shown
in the handicap tournament to be held
at the Golf Club Saturday afternoon
for the ladies cup. There have been
a number of entries already and it is
expected that by Saturday there will
be many more. The contest is open
to all the members of the club, no
qualification being necessary except
the handing in of an average score
upon which the players handicap may
be based. The handicaps will be gen.
erous, allowing each contestant a fair
chance of winning if playing up to her
usual game, and yet not so large as
to permit a poor player to win by
fluke. AS is the custom in such
matches, each player or each two
players will be accompanied by an off,
cial scorer.
The event will be something of a So
cial affair, as it is expected that there
will be many visitors out to watch the
match. During the afternoon, ices and
other refreshments will be served at
the clubhouse. Mrs. Arthur B. M.
Gibbes will be the hostess.
