Montgomery. Ala, Aug. s.-There is
every indication that the present strained
relations between Alabama and the South
ern Railway shortly viii be settled salts
factorily to both parties. While it is i'm
possible to learn Of any definite agreement
at this hour, it ig safe 10 say that the
Southern Railway will make concessions.
Col. E. L. Russell. vice president Of the
Southern Railway, with headquarters in
Mobile, reached Montgomery last night.
and this morning had a conference with
Gov. Conner looking to the settlement Of
the present differences. Neither Col. Rus
sell nor Gov. Conner, when seen BY your
correspondent, would give out anything
definite regarding the interview, save
that d tentative proposition had been
made for adjusting differences. and that
further conferences would take place very
soon.
Governor Tells Little.
Gov. Conner said:
Yes, it is true that 1 have had a con
ference with Col russell Matters of
variance between the s.ate and the South
ern Railroad were discussed. Some ten
tative propositions were made, and fur
ther conferences viii be held. do not
feel at liberty at this time to state what
these propositions were but the mater is
being considered"
The governor was asked about his con-
ference in Birmingham, and the probable
calling out of the State militia, if needed.
but was non-communicative. The atti-
tude Of the state, however, on this ques-
ton is that If the Southern railway 2r

the Southern Railway has given it slap
in the face by deliberately defying the
law of the State revoking the license
Of any foreign corporation doing railroad
business in Alabama. provided it removes
a suit from the State to the Federal
court"
These questions were all involved in the
litigation now pending before Judge
Thomas @. Jones in the Federal court.
and while this litigation is pending the
status quo was changed by the Southern
Railway deliberately removing a suit

and onyx, with plate glass and gilt and out

administrative ceremonial covered the decay
and sogginess of affluent license. 1t was
here. Frances only too well knew, that Lit

it was here that an unsavory actress or two

the initiated sought. and found the court of
the most gentlemanly blacklegs in all New

All this she knew and had known before

to her only as she descended from her ham
som. and gathered up her skirt to take the
wide step that led into the sickeningly re-
splendent lobby. So.
Then, for the second time in her career
she did remarkable and an unexpected
thing. 4ss
For one moment she stood there motion
less, unconscious of the tides of life that
swept in and out on either side of her. She
stood there, like an Alpine traveller ON his
fragile little mountain bridge OF pendulous
pine and rope, gazing down into the sud
den and awful abysses beside her, which
seemed to open up out of the very stone and
marble that hemmed her in. For at one
breath all the shrouding panoramic illu-

into what seemed the mouth Of HI itself.
1t deluged her with one implacable desire,
with one unreasoning, childlike passion to
escape, If only for the moment, that path
which some day, she knew, she must yet
traverse. But escape she must. until some
newer strength could come to her.
She clenched and unclenched her two
hands, slowly. Then she as slowly turned,
where she stood, re-entered her hansom
and drove back to Der own rooms once
more There she locked and bolted her
door, flung from her hat and gloves and
veil. and fell to pacing her room, staring
eyed and rigid.
She could not do it! Her heart had failed

picture of far different life, which had
come to her behind the uncovered walls of
her uncle's parsonage. 1t was a continuous

AS she slowly Weakened in response to the
call that had been left at the hotel Office,
Frances wondered, with the irrelevancy of
mental machinery's first slow movements, if
Durkin, at that precise moment, was still
sleeping In his own bed and room in his own
distant part of the city. For his awaken

and then only, that the true meaning of
their defeat would come home to him. She
wondered, too, If he was looking to her,
waiting for her to help him face the old
time, dreaded monotony Of inactive and pur-
poseless life.
ooh, poor JIM she murmured again, I'M

She hoped as she walked more fully to
her world of realities, that he at least was

She had always boosted that she could

over it!' Yet she now felt, as she waited

could lie there forever, and still be unsat-
isfied, and cry for one hour more.
But she had already made her rigorous
precious. After her bath she at once or
dered up an ample breakfast of fruit and
eggs and coffee and deviled mutton chops
remembering, as she religiously devoured
her meat, that Durkin had always declared
she was carnivorous, protesting that he

teeth of hers.

Then she hurried from her room, and

one Of the members, who. In all prob
