20 out on strike and at 10 all the men
stacked trucks and retired.
AS soon as this was learned in the Of
nee OF Mr. whaley he gave orders that
the men be paid OF. BY the time the pay
rolls had been arranged the strikers had
marched in a body to the quarters OF the
union. in the Labor Temple. Here they
will hold meetings twice during the day
until some definite arrangements can be
made or the men return 10 work.
When the men quit work there was
large number OF teams loaded with per-
ishable freight standing at the doors OF
the three freight houses waiting - be
unloaded. and the most OF them either
took away their loads or the truckmen
themselves unloaded them.
In all there are about 200 men out OF
employment BY the strike order OF whom
$50 have TO do with the freight as ham
diers while the remainder are clerks.
After the men left the yards this morn
ing the clerks handled a part OF the
freight for a while and then the doors
were closed. and the order issued that no
more freight was 10 be received except
at the shippers risk and none OF a perish
able nature.
EXPECTS TO FILL PLACES.
1t was stated later that superintendent
whaley hoped 10 make arrangements by
noon whereby all freight that could be
handled and that by tomorrow the places
OF all the strikers would be filled. As yet
none OF the trains that usually leave this
city for various inland points with freight
were able TO do so. and many OF the cars
yemain still untitled.
The men hope that the demands made
Tor the increase I'm wages and the hours
will be acceded to In few days and that

alton and TO advise the men as 10 the best
course to pursue.
The trouble In the freight yard had no

His Sight Restored.

A special to the State from Able.
vile says Mr.. Norman S. Casyn, an
Industrious and prosperous farmer Of
that county who has been almost
totally blind since childhood, i met
with a peculiar. and happy accident
while In town Thursday. Mr.. Cason
was sitting In The store OF Messrs P.
Rosen nbery y Co., and ia attempting
TO put on his Hat G1e brim s6ra him
in the eye. For moment he was
rendered totally blind but soon after
wards his sight came to him and he
was able to distinguish friends and
objects never before seen by him. He
said he could see the obstruction to
his vision gradually passing away af-
ter the total blindness came on. The
good fortune Of Mr.. Cason has resulted
in his confusion to small degree.
He did not know the appearance OF
bis brothers and friends and did not
recognize them after he had regained
his sight until they spoke to him.
Mr.. Cason's sight improved rapidly
during the afternoon and until he left
town for his home. Heretofore he
had consulted eminent specialists
about his condition but none gave him
any relief Oh hope. His friends are
now congratulating him on his good
fortune.

Growth OF 1he Rural SERVICE

The growth OF rural free delivery
service in the United States has been
rapid and the total amount now paid
annually is enormous. Previous to
1902 these: carriers were paid by war
rant or check direct from the first as
sistant postmaster generals office at
Washington, but the growth became
so extensive 1t was decided that the
postmaster at the capital of each
State should pay the carriers in his
State. In 1902 when Postmaster En-
Sor was made paymaster for South
Carolina, there were ia rural free
delivery carriers in South Carolina
and the amount Of their salaries was
$50, 400. a the close Of the fiscal
year, June 80, 1903, there were 333
carriers, receiving the sum OF Sl92,-
9l2, over three times the amount paid
out at the close of the fiscal year Of
1902. In 1902 the carriers re :elved
on an average OF $500 per annun; In
1903 about $500 per annum; for the
present year there has been practically
a 800 raise, according to the length
Of the route, most Of the carriers get
ting $720 per annum.

Driving Out Anaemia.

Wonders are being worked In Porto
Rico by Capt. b. X. Ashford, assist
ant surgeon, United States Army,
who is treating anaemia, which ia
threatening the development Of Porto
Rico. Hundreds Of persons suffering
with the malady and believed by ma
tive physicians to be incurable have
been cured by the American doctor,
who is assisted by DR.. King, of the
Marine Hospital Service. Reports
from Porto Rico state that In the dis
trlct OF DaYamm alone the doctors
treated 93l cases In six weeks and lost
but one case. They are now in Utu-
ava, where the same remarkable re-
suits are being reported. In Dayamm
they reduced the death rate 20 per
cent. in the six weeks they worked
there among the $4,000 persons sub.
ject to the pernicious anaemia, which
travellers have said will prevent Porto
Rico from enjoying the prosperity it
might have with healthier and more
Industrious population.
The two American doctors do not
attribute the disease to starvation
and underfeeding, as the native doc
tors do, and have submitted their pa
tientS to an entirely different sort Of
treatment. The results have been as
founding and have given the natives
new hope. Invallds are brought to
the healers in hammocks and on cots
and are afforded almost instant relief.

MRS. NYE LOSES ALL.
Entrusted Her Estate to Mai. w. NJ.
Brecse.

BrecBc.
A special from Charlotte, N. G.
says: When the United States dis
trict court convened Friday morning
for a continuation of the trial of VIM.
Breese for embezzlement, the district
attorney asked and was granted per-
mission to introduce Mrs. e. w. Nye,
wife OF the late humorist, who resides
at Arden, N. c., and who desired to
return to her home.
Mrs. Nye told of entrusting her
property and all the money she pos
sessed, $1,000, to the keeping OF
Breese and said she lost.it all. After
EtheE Edeathso of lier hnsb band Esshs sdesir -
ITO take her children on a trip to
Europe, and before leaving Asheville,
she gave Breese her papers and docu-
ments aud instructed him to invest
her money. He had been good
friend of her dead husband and she
felt that she could trust him implicit.
ly. Mrs. Nye also said she owned
property in New York which was left
in charge OF Breese and lost this also.
Breese testified that while it was
true that he had charge of Mrs. Nye's
papers, he did not understand that he
was authorized to act as her agent in
dlsposing Of her property. He collect.
ed the interest on her money when
due and passed 1t to her credit. When
the bank failed he turned the papers
over to his son, W. E. Breese, Jr., an
attorney, and wrote Mrs. Nye to this
L. Hnpt 1nOt, har
tie defendant visited her at Buck
Shoal, her country home, and explain
ed all the details of the failure. Upon
the objection Of the district attorney
he was not permitted to relate the
cOnverSat ion.
The witness denied that he drew
Mrs. Ney's money out of the bank,
saying he could not have done so for
the reason that he had not au uthority to
sign name to check. He also denied
all knowledge of the loss Of Mrs.
Nye's property in New York. This
property, be said, was purchased by
MIR. Nye before his death, and was
covered by mortgage.
| BreeSe then went on to explain In
detail different notes and said he
knew nothing Of the charges OF forg.
cry.
Maj. Breeze admitted that he had
signed the name Of w. w. Rollins to
two notes for 200 each, OH April 6,
1897. These were the notes Mai.
Rollins had declared to be forgeres
when he was on the witness stand last
week. The witne' said his relations
with RolliLs were cordial and init.
mate. When he ailixed Mai. Rollins
signature TO the not; s, 1t vas for the
purpose Of taking up two other notes
which had been rediscounted. Mai.
Rollins was out of town at the time
and upon his return ratified the action
by singing and giving Mai. Breese a
blank note.
