TAFT LISTENS TO REPORT
 ON CHILD LABOR MATTERS

Augusta. Ga, January 6.--The President elect is a member of the national child labor committee, and today he listened to a report on general conditions of child labor in the south from A. J. McKelway, secretary of the committee for the south ern states. MT. McKelway has head quarters at Atlanta. It was his conclu- sion that the child labor laws of southern states are pretty we'll adapted to condi- uons, but that there is laxness in their enforcement. No action on the subject is understood to be contemplated at this time.
 National Chairman Frank H. Hitchcock returned from his trip to Birmingham and Atlanta this morning .and this afternoon had an extended interview with MT Taft. John Hays Hammond who visited Atlanta, came back with MT Hitchcock. Chauncey Dewey of Chicago recently appointed inspector general of the Illinois state militia, is here to see MT Taft and MT. Hitchcock MT. Dewey was one of the two Taft delegates from that state in the convention, and 1t is un- derstood he has some political friends he wishes to intercede for. A call was made on MT. Taft by Judge William H. Jackson of New York and his brother Henry Jackson of Atlanta. The latter is a Georgia republican of prominence They came from Atlanta with Hitchcock and Hammond today.
 MT. Taft will leave Atlanta after his

RAILROAD COMPANY'S +
 APPEAL IS SUSTAINED

New Orleans. January s--In the matter of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad com pany. and other appellants against the Macon Grocery company, appellees, the United States circuit court of appeals has reversed the decree of the lower court with instructions to dismiss the bill with out prejudice.
 The question involved a proposed in- crease in freight rates on food products from Georgia points to points west of that state. The appellees secured an injunc- tion and tho railroad company's appeal from this action of the lower court is sustained by the appellate court decision.
 In July, 1908. the appellees and other domestic corporations in Georgia and others, dealing in wholesale groceries. food products. etc, complained against the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad com pany the Louisville and Nashville Rail- road company, and the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad com- pany, the Southern Railway company, the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pa cifc Railroad company, to show cause why an injunction should not issue to prevent the putting into operation an ad- vance of freight rates, effective August 1, 190S insofar as all points in the state of Georgia are concerned.

association. and that the object was to have a monopoly and destroy competi- tion.
 >The railroad companies filed pleas to the Jurisdiction of the court, because the corporations are not under the laws of the state of Georgia, maintaining that any suit should be brought before the United States court in the cities in which each company has its domicile.
 The appellees demurred stating that the controversy was between citizens of different states and was solely founded upon diversity of citizenship.
 The court below sustained the demurrer and enjoined the enforcement of the freight charges pending an investigation. and determination of the reasonableness of the rates involved by the interstate commerce commission.
 Judge Mccormick, in delivering the opinion of the court, says that the bill in this case presents for necessary con sideration the proper construction of the act to regulate commerce and, therefore, the jurisdiction of the court does not rest solely upon diversity of citizenship of the parties. The court concludes that the sound construction of the different provisions of the act to regulate com- :merce as amended and now in force neces- sarily forbid the exercise of the jurisdic- ton attempted to be invoked
 Judge Pardee concurred with Judge Mo- Cormick in the opinion. Judge Shelby dissented.

STILL SEARCHING
 FOR M'CALLA NEGRO

Officers are still in search of the ne gro who attempted to assault Mrs. 0. c. Jones at McCalla early Tuesday night. It appears that Mrs. Jones was in her back yard when she saw the. negro com ing towards her in a stooping position. She screamed and broke in a run, the negro dashing after her. The house is in a clump of woods, a short distance from the road and several hundred yards from the next neighbor. Mrs. Jones out ran the negro and he gave up the chase when she reached the road.
 Deputy Sheriff George Jones and others searched all night for the negro and 1t is thought were close to him two or three times The residents of that vicin- ity are still searching for him and feel ing is running rather high.
 This negro, it has also been learned, went to Mrs Jones' home several days ago and attempted to enter. She shut the door in his face, however and after a few minutes he left, and his sudden ap- pearance late Tuesday afternoon was the next she saw of him.
 After the negro had quit running after her Mrs. Jones continued running until she reached a neighbor's house. She was almost prostrated when she reached there.

At the Majestic.

A full house attended the benefit per formance at the Majestic theatre last night, d percentage of the receipts going to the relief fund of the Italian society for the benefit of the earthquake sufferers in Italy. The members of the Italian so- ciety sold a large number of tickets to the benefit and there were a consider able number of Italians in addition to the regular ustrons last night
 Everyone present seemed to enjoy the excellent performance and the applause was unusually long and hearty.
 Tomorrow night the Theatrical Me ehanics association will have a benefit at the Majestic. and actors from other the atres will present acts following the regu- lar programme, which will make this a big feature event of the week. Already about TOO tickets have been sold and the members of the association are busy selling others. A packed house is anticipated The receipts from the benefit will go to the fund of the local union of the theatrical mechanics
 There is a matinee daily and a per formance nightly at the Majestic, and one of the best vaudevills bills ever pre- sented in Birmingham.

PEACE OF CHINA
 STILL IN DANGER

Pekin, January 6:-The American. the British and the Japanese ministers are acting on the principle that the situa- tion brought about by the dismissal of the grand councillor, Yuan Shi Kai, re- quires a strong attitude on the part of the powers anda warning to the Prince Regent against any administrative act that might endanger the peace. The German, Russian and French ministers appear to be without instructions from their governments and are awaiting de- velopments.
 Officials of the Chinese government have intimated that inquiries concern ing the Urea tment of Yuan Shi Kai on the part of the legations would be un- welcome and that moreover the Chinese government is not prepared to receive representations from foreign govern ments on the subject.
 The question of making representa- tions to a foreign government on mat ters of internal administration and policy. always a delicate one, Is re- garded as particularly so in the present instance
 For this reason. perhaps the diplo- matic corps at Pekin has been slow to approach the Chinese government on the subject of the dismissal of Yuan Shk Kai from the position of grand councillor and is giving the very full est and most earnest consideration to every phase of the subject. It may be that if the developments of the future are of such a character as to endanger openly the peace of the coun- try. and are a menace to foreign fn- terests the state department may feel if advisable to urge upon the gov ernment auth critics the desirabilfty or some announcement that will alter ap- prehension and fear
 It is urged by diplomats watching developments that nothing has yet oc- cured in China to show that Yuan s dismissal is to be followed by any seri- ous consequences or any decidedly re- actionary tendencies. They point out that any yielding by China to any de- mands by the powers in the matter, for instance, of the restoration of Yuan to his old position, would at once be a confession of weakness which would humiliate her in the eyes of the world.

Smith-Vandiver.

$ Taladega. January 6.-(Special.) "A lovely home wedding of more than or dinary interest on account of the prom thence of the families was that of MT. Howard Lee Smith of Anniston to Miss Annabel .Vandiver of Talladega which occurred on Tuesday evening at the home in Talladega of Hon. and Mrs. Yelling ton Vandiver.
 Four little misses, Eugenia Smith, Mary McEldery Dorothy Meads and Ma belle Meade made an aisle in the crowd of merry invited guests for the coming of the bridal procession. The groom ad- vanced down the wide hall of the home on the arm of his best man, MT. c. S. Goodwin, superintendent of the Sycamore cotton mills. Immediately the doors of the east room opened and the matron of hon. or, Mrs J. N White, preceded the bride, who was dressed in white satin mousse lane carried Brides roses, and was sup ported on the arm of her father. On reaching the groom the father placed his daughters hand on the arm of her chosen husband and immediately Rev Dr. Frank B. Webb of the First Presbyterian church began beautiful and unique service, using the ring and Kissing the pride at the close. Charlotte russe and cake were served in a long dining room brilliant with lights and decorations About 200 guests were present. Presents and con- gratulatory telegrams came from all parts of the south. Mrs Chives Woodruff of Anniston and Miss Margaret Hammond of Talladega favored the guests with vocal numbers previous to the wedding march rendered by Mrs. C. s. Northen. A large party, showering rice, followed the brides carriage to the Louisville and Nashville station, and bade the happy couple merry adieu. The young people belong to families whose names are bril- lianty written in the history of Ala bama. and whose dindred and well-wish- CTS are reckoned by hundreds The bride is popular and cultured; the groom is capable and has a spotless moral character. and happiness seems assured for them.
