OUT or SHAPE IN FAR SOUTH

Old Sol, after FIVE days conceal
ment behind clouds, broke forth this
morning in all his glory. The morn
ing was cold and ice had formed in
shallow cutters. A few clouds in the
east were soon blown below the ho-
rizon and the suns appearance made
the hearts of a patient public glad.
The temperature rose with the sun.
No one was more glad to see the
change than the railroad official.
The work trains could work under
favorable circumstances repairing
damage done the tracks by wash
outs. The ~, c. and st. L. sent the
early morning accommodation to
Memphis and way stations. 1t was
announced that trains on this road
will be run on regular schedule
time from today. The eight extra
work trains did quick work. A night
shift was kept busy and the road
made possible for traffic.
The Illinois Central is still work
ng extra crews in the south where
the damage was greatest. Last night
train. No. 1914, from New Orleans to
Louisville, was made up at Fulton.
1t passed here a little later. other
trains from the south were detour-
ed over the l.. & n. via Paris, Tenn.
On the Louisville division the
greatest damage was caused by wa
ter over tracks. The washouts were
few. but In many places the great
volume of water stood over the rails
several feet deep. making 1t impos-
sible for the trains to move over
them. To-day the Illinois Central
promised to have trains running on
regular schedule time from the

spent nearly s6,OOO,OOO in their

known yesterday. AT the same time
1t was announced that a meeting in

BRITAIN MAY ACT IN CONGO.
Foreign Secretary Says Nation Awaits
Decision of Bclgians.

London, Nov. 22.-An important
population representative of the vari-
Gus creeds and political parties OF
Great Britain called on Foreign Sec
rotary Grey today to discuss the al
legged atrocities in the Congo Free
State. The speakers pointed out that
the agitation for reform in the meth
DDS of administering the Congo Free
State has become practically unani-
nous in this country. The fact that
Secretary Grey consented to receive
the deputation on the eve of the Con-
go debate in the Belgian parliament
is considered significant. The secre-
tary, in his reply, practically prom
ised that unless the Belgian govern
ment takes steps to improve the pre-
vailing conditions Great Britain will
propose International action.
