DOWN IN TENNESSEE
Clash Between Southern and Louis
vile and Nashville.

Away down among the foothills OF
western Tennessee the Southern and
Louisville and Nashville Railroads are
having an exciting little war of their
own, in which il is saiC there have been
clashes between the employees of the
rival systems, and other kinds Of trou-
bic.
The Louisville and Nashville is said
to be the aggressor. because IL wants TO
connect its lines with those of the
Southern, and the Southern does not
want any such a connection made. The
seat OF the war is Oliver Springs. The

No REFUND OF A FEE
PAID FOR EXAMINATION
Another Instance of Dis
trict Building Methods.
APPLICANT HAD WITHDRAWN
Reimbursement Refused on Ground Nc
Specific Appropriation Made for
1t by Congress.

Auditor Garrison and Collector Of
Taxes Davis have appended their names
to an Endorsement denying a refund of
SO to c. j. GOckeler, on the remarkable
ground that Congress has made no
specific provision for such refund
1t appears from the papers that Cooke
Ter made application for examination as
steam engineer. With the application,
Gockeler forwarded So as examination
fee. Prior to the day set by the board
to examine applicants. Gockeler. FOR
reasons not given. decided not to APP
pear. and asked that his money be re-
turned.
Money Should Be Returned.
The matter was referred to the Audi
tor and Collector of Taxes, who recon-
mended that the SO be kept by the Dis
trict. Notwithstanding the applicant did
not appear for examination. AS the
money is supposed to be in payment ior
the examination. and not for the privi-
lege OF making an application. it Is
contended by those familiar with the
case that the fee should be returned. In
answer to the defense of the Auditor
and Collector. il is declared law which
precludes equity is a poor law, and
should be amended.
0the- Cases.
During the past few weeks The Times
has cited two other cases. in other de-
partments where equity has apparently
been disregarded, namely, the case 81
o. W. White for water rent refund. wheI
the water was not furnished, and VIII
liam H. Richards, for death certificate
refund, when the certificate had never
been issued. 1t was held in both these
cases that although the article paid col
was not furnished, the absence Of ex-
press and specific legislation made re-
fund impossible.

SITUATION SERIOUS
IN SOFT COAL REGION
West Virginia BituminOus
Mines Closing Down.
CONFERENCE WITHOUT AVAIL
Owners Will Reopen if Men Will Pub
licly Renounce characterization
of Miners Desperate.

Nothing was determined by the con-
ference of operators, railway officials
and representatives of the mine workers
held last week in the West Virginia soft
coal region and the strike is still on.
Unless it is soon concluded and the min
ers go back to work under the condi-
lions in force before the present
trouble, the operators declare they will
shut down all the mines along the line
of the West Virginia Central and Pitts
burg. In case this is done the effect of
the labor troubles will be seriously felt
in this region.
The situation in the strike district Is
growing more and more desperate. The
miners are without money and without
food Little work is being done. The
Armstrong, one of the big mines con-
trolled by the Davis Coal and Coke
Company, shut down last Saturday with
the option left to the men to return to
work today, provided they will make a
public remuneration of the union.
Will Use Non Union Men.
The Blaine mine will resume today
with non-union men, though the strik-
ers declare they will not permit it. The
operators say they will protect the men
with deputies, If necessary. The Elk
Garden mine, which usually works $50
men is now working eight The Thomas
mines are working half capacity, and
are expected to close at any time. The
Hampshire and the Buxton mines are
running pending an investigation by the
officials to determine IL their men are
in the union. before closing.
W. E. Ambrose, of Washington. who
represented the Abrams Creek Coal End
Mining Company in the conference last
week, says the miners are growing rest
less, and it is thought II a few will re-
nounce the union others will follow
The Georges Greek miners have con-
tributed TO the strikers, but this fund is
exhausted and the idle men are allowed
no credit. There is a general boycott OF
! company stores. entailing much loss to
their operators.
No Support Forthcoming.
1t is expected by the miners support
will be forthcoming from the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen, and also
from the Brotherhood OF Locomotive En-
gineers. This support has not come. and
the United Mine Workers have not con-
tributed funds.

UNEXPENDED BALANCES
FOR NAVAL EXPENSES
Nearly FOrty-eight Millions
Still Available.
NO SHORTAGE is PROBABLE
Interesting Report From Auditor-De-
posit of Money by Enlist
ed Men.

There is no danger that the money
naval vessels or for most of the i'm
portant public works at navy yards and
stations, authorized by Congress, will
run short during the present fiscal year.
The report of the Auditor for the Navy
Department, submitted to Secretary
Shaw by Auditor Brown, shows that
there are ample funds. This is due TO
the fact that appropriations like those
for the increase of the navy and for
permanent public works do not lapse
with the expiration of the fiscal year
for which they are made. and the I'M
expended balances continue to be avail
able

Uncxpended Balances.

Thus the appropriations made by the
last session of Congress for the increase
of the navy for the present fiscal year
amounted to SIG, 0S5 .632, but there were
unexpended balances amounting to S21.-

prorriations. thus making total of

the items OF appropriations and balances

There are several Items for which
no appropriations were made by the East

Another interesting feature of the au-
ditor's report is that dealing with the
deposits OF money made by enlisted men
under the law authorizing the payment
of interest at the rate of 4 per cent on
such deposits.
This shows that since the system was
started In 1889 the enlisted men Of the

this amount there has been repaid to
them 81 1893. 1873. leaving in the fund on

TO WRECKS.
Device Gotten Upyby Superintend-
ent Laws.

Superintendent Laws OF the Sacra-
mento division of the Southern Pa
cific has discovered that the cause Of
the numerous wrecks was due to the
high and heavily laden box and lun-
Der cars and oil tanks failing to ac-
commodate themselves 10 the curves.
After thousands of dollars worth of roll
ing stock have been destroyed and in
Vulnerable and expensive delays to
traffic resulted, the superintendent has
decided that the conductors and brake
mar were right and has gone one step
farther by making an invention that
remedies the fault.
His conclusion was that the side
motion Of the heavily laden cars. more
or less top-heavy. on the sharp curves
caused the cars 10 tip over, raising the
wheel flanges above the rail and allow
ing the trucks to leave the track. A
prevention Of the unusual side motion
Of the cars was determined upon as a
remedy for the evil and the work Of
s~tsadying the cars was undertaken. At
the company's shops in Sacramento
"side bumpers were put on the tracks
and the bottoms Of the cars so as to
allow but slight side motion. 1t is now
believed that the remedy is effectual
and the danger Of wrecks has been
materially reduced.
