Their train, No. 3, was held several hours beyond the scene of the wreck, which they passed at snaiPs speed. All the way from St. Louis they met trains bearing the injured and in MT. Kinman's S opinion there were at least 100 injured. Where the train left the track and was hurled down the embankment into the creek below, the ground was covered with blood where the injured had rested after being taken from the train.
 Mrs. Etta Merrill's millinery opening Tuesday was we'll att tended, considering the warm weather, for 'tis as hard to sell a winter hat as an overcoat when the thermometer scars around the hundreds. This, however, could have nothing to do with the beatty of the fall styles as skillfully shown by the tasteful, clever and original workmanship of Mrs. Merrill and her popular trimmers, Misses Wells and Adams. The display was a most creditable one and elicited much compliment from all visitors. Mrs. Merrill now has the only millinery store in Newport, but has prepared to meet the de- hands of an increased business.

Gross Earnings for Present Year
Will Exceed Those of Last.
AS the fiscal year draws to a close it
becomes a fact without question that
the Southern railroads are going to
make the best showing in the matter of
gross earnings ever made in their his
tory.
The only road that fails to show a
material increase from week to week
is the Louisville and Nashville, but
even in this case the heavy increase of
gross earnings reported earlier in the
season. will still more than offset the
falling off that has been reported re-

Traffic Manager Winburn, of Central
Back from Trip.
Back from a trip through the peach
growing section. Traffic Manager w.
A. winburn, of the Central of Geor-
gia. talks most encouragingly of the
outlook. He returned yesterday morn
ing in his private car.
1.-THE early peaches bring good
prices" said Mr.. Winburn to a repre-
sentative of the Morning News. Good
prices are being realized and the
fruit growers are much gratifed over
the situation.
This week the season will be In
full swing The cool weather delayed
the crop for few days. The Car
mans are on the market and the
yield is very heavy. Many thousand
additional trees of this variety have
been planted in the peach belt and the
crop of early peaches will be almost
equal in volume to the Elbertas, which
ripen next month. The week begin
ming tomorrow will see the heaviest
shipments for the month of June.
"As a result of the cool weather the
peaches have ripened more slowly.
and are therefore harder and more
capable of bearing shipment.
1.-THE fruit growers of the Marshall
town and Fort Valley sections are
looking forward to a financial plenty
and are consequently feeling very
good. The crop will undoubtedly be a
most profitable one for the shippers
this year"

ASK REDUCTION
TO COAST CITIES
FINAL HEARING TOMORROW.
ATLANTA MEN CAN'T COMPETE
WITH RATES FROM EAST.

Traffic Manager Winburn, of Gen.
trnI of Georgia, viii Leave for
CAPITAL This MOrninR-Roads Have
Maintained That Proposed Chang
es Would BE Inequitablc-SaVRn-
nah and Brunswick Specially
NRmcd-COntentiOn of Railroads.
Traffic Manager Winburn of the Cen
trail Of Georgia will leave this morn
ing for Atlanta, where he goes to at
tend final hearing before the Geor-
gia Railroad Commission tomorrow
on the application of Atlanta manufac-
turers and jobbers for a reduction in
freight rates from Atlanta to Savan-
nah and Brunswick and other coast
points.
1t is expected that representatives
of all the larger systems OF the state
will be present. as the topic is of vital
importance to their roads.
Some time ago the Atlanta wholesale
interests complained TO the commission
that they were unable to compete with
the New York and Philadelphia mar
kets in Savannah and Brunswick by
reason Of the low freight rates from
the East. and asked that a reduction
be ordered to the two coast cities
named.
There Is Opposition.
Opposed to the contentious of the
Wholesalers. the railroad managers al
lege that rates TO coast points are al
ready very low. and that to order
further reduction would work great
hardship.
Furthermore. the roads claim, If
reduction were made 10 the coast cities
named. il would in all probability re-
suit in such a kick" being made by
the inland towns and cities between
Atlanta and Savannah that the next
move would be 10 compel general
and wide reduction to many interior
points, especially those on rivers naVi-
gable either by vessels or small craft
capable OF towing barges.
AS an example of the radical step
asked the manufacturers and dealers
i'm all classes of goods ask a reduction
, so that they may compete in the Sa-
vannah market.
Contention of Railroads.
While, of course. a chance to extend
their trade looks good TO the Atlanta
manufacturers, the railroads take
broader view of the matter and MAIN
tain that the reductions asked for
should not be granted on account sole
IL of low freight rates from the East.
Mixed with the question of reduc-
ton to the coast would be that of the
long and short haul and the probable
interference of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. In view of these
complications. the railroads do not con-
slider that the reductions asked for are
fair and equitable. or that they should
be asked to grant the demands.
A number of hearings have been
given by the commission on the points
at issue, and II has been ordered that
to-morrows argument shall be the final
one. The decision of the commission
will not probably be announced for
some weeks.

SOUTH SIDE CHURCH GOT BANNER
Distances All other Baptist Church.

es i'm GeOrGfn.
Off1citl announcement was made yes
terday to Rev. D. S. Edenfeld, pastor
of the South Side Baptist Church. that
his church had won the state banner of
the Baptist Young Peoples Union for
the best work in the Junior Study
Course. The average is made up after
a rigid examination in the work of the
year.
The course covers wide range of
subjects and only the closest applica-
ton 10 work can make any church sue
cessful. Last year the Junior banner
was won by the South Side Baptist
Church, and the ability to win it two
years in succession speaks we'll for the
members of the union at that church.
The banner will be presented to one of
the delegates at the convention this
week in Washington, Ga.
A banner is also offered for the
church excelling in the Senior Course
of study. The Senior banner this year
goes to the Rome Baptist Church.

The old idea that dandruff is scales

Riot at Tent shoyv.

There was rioting at a negro tent show. which exhibited in this city last night and as a result, two members of the show were fined this morning in Mayors Court for cursing and assault ing, while two negro boys of Pensa cola appeared in the same tribunal and gave evidence against the minstrel men which served to make the Mayor impose fines. The negroes were repre- sented by an attorney. who asked a new trial. This was overruled. and an appeal was taken to the Circuit Court
 While the trouble went on there was considerable excitement in the neigh borhcod. The managers represented that their property had been damaged, especially the tent. which had been slashed in many places. ropes cut and as a parting shot the tent was stoned. It was after midnight before the trouble was finally quelle.
