 Not Been Mistreated-Several
 Labor Leaders Present.
L. & N. HAS ACTED FAIRLY

Decatur September n.-(Special.)-The strike situation in the Louisville and Nashville shops Is quiet here tonight, al- though William Robinson, sixth vice-pres- ident of the International Association of Machinists, and several other labor lead CTS are in the city tonight.
 When interviewed MT. Robinson said: When the lay-off here occurred I was wired to come here and investigate the case. I came here and had an interview with General Master Mechanic Beckert and Master Mechanic Sullivan and they assured me the lay-off was due to a de- crease of the company's business. After a thorough investigation I came to the conclusion that we had no complaint, as we were not looking for trouble and al- ways try to avoid 1t when possible to do so.
 Heretofore the Louisville and Nashville management have always treated us fair ly and we have no complaint against them. do not see any cause for trouble in this affair at all. All stories sent out about probable strikes are without foun- dation."
 During the past few days there have been several other labor leaders in Deca- tur beside MT Robinson.

Frenchtown Is Almost Certain to Be
 Annexed-Socal Notes,

Pratt City, September 11.--(Special) It is soon to be Greater Pratt City. The annexation of Frenchtown seems almost a certainty. It was thought at first that there would be a controversy over the annexation of Frenchtown be- tween Ensley and Pratt City, but Ems ley realizing that, logically and geo. graphically, it should be a part of Pratt, gracefully yielded, and, it is un- derstood, will not introduce any meas ure in the legislature seeking to annex 1t. Frenchtown being on this side of the creek, is more accessible to Pratt. As an example of this proposition, it does its trading here, attends church and school here and calls on the police when in need of protection.

work Commenced ON That Line.

July 6, 1896, work was eommenc-
ed on the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road, wonderful undertaking at
that time, and then the people said
it was an undertaking that was in
domain of impossibilities oil accom-
plishment But the folly of the ex
pressed opinion of the wise ones and
even the Contemplating and all know
ing" press catered to the opinion
that snch task could never be ac,
compiished. The b. u O. company
was the first to demonstrate that
road could be built and it was done.
We are only removed from the
starting point of railroad building
three-quartsrs OF century, and now
the work of building or reproducing
the good old pioneer b, & 0. road
would be regarded as mere break
fast spell IN this day OF improved
methods of machinery aud skill in
workmanship.
Some years later the company
sought to pass through this county
but met with unwise opposition
Not to be kept out OF the rich coal
field we find the B. q O. surveying q
a line from Cameron, passing through
the county of Greene to connect

bly, distance of 40 or so miles

rich Dunlkard valley, and will cross
the Monongahela river at Poin'
Marion. We are informed that thu
engineers are putting the finishing
touches on the surveys, and that thu
road will be built. Such move OF
the part of the company would saw
them considerable haul from thu
