PREPARE FOR STRIKE
POSTS AND TELEGRAPH ENVELOPES
 MARSHAL THEIR FORCES.
Premier Clemenceau Declares He VIII Resign Rather Than Make Terms With the sfen--Paris Appears
 Undisturbed.

Paris. May s.--Both the government and the state, employees including the men of the department of posts and telegraphs are today marshalling their forces for the impending struggle. Premier Ciemenceau is still connned
 to his room by sickness but he Is in
 constant communication with his col leagues and declares he will resign
 rather than make terms.
 Troops and special police reserves
 were disposed this morning to guard the central post and telegraph station. the switch hboard machinery and the eK- posed lines leading to the provinces.
 M. Parthou. the Minister of Public Works. Is of the opinion that con-
 siderable proportion of the state em : pioyes will stick to their posts. and that with the aid of soldiers and the co operation of the Chambers of Com merce and the Hotel Keepers' Asso- ciations. who are organizing auxiliary
 forces. the public services will be t-maintained. One hundred and hfty
 thousand carrier pigeons, trained for
 war service. have been placed at the
 disposal of the government.
 The strike committee of the postal employees ridicuie the measures adopt
 ed by the government. and promise big surprises. It Is understood that the men do not intend to declare strike until next Tuesday. in order to give
 Parliament. which will reassemble on
 Monday, chance to intervene in their
 favor. Their manifestoes whicR are
 couched in the phrageology of revoiu- tion, read as If the writers were mar
 tyrs to liberty. For instance, in an- nouncing the refusal of seven postmen to appear before the Council of Discip- l line today on the ground that to com ply would be an interference with their | liberty, these men are described as 1 going to the execution in 'charrettes' ' a term employed during the reign of terror to describe the carts which con- veyed the victims of the revolutionary tribunal to the guiilotine.
 Many of the groups of railroad men | in the provinces have voted sympathy
 with the postmen and announced their | support of the resolution of the Rail- | road Mems Congress to so on strike fl
 Parliament does not vote pension | bill.
 In the meantime, notwith standing the I excitement and the apparent approach of crisis. Paris is as gay as ever. The social season ig at its-height and the | tbouIevards are filled with pleasure seeking crowds. One newspaper de-
 scribes the situation as follows:
 we are standing over volcano, but l Paris. as usual. only aInuses itself" When the Council of Discipline. com | posed of five chiefS or division and five
 advisory representatives, mat today to consider action In the case of the seven | postmen charged with attacking the xovernment and Parliament. only two | of the advisory members were present | They asked immediately that the Coun-
 ell declare itself incompetent, and up- l on refusal they walked out and arI- l nounced their intention of resignig.

COURT AT GREENvILLE.
Light Rockets Cleared and Many Con
 victi0ns Recorded.

Li9ht Rockets Cleared and Many Ccn-
 victions Recorded.
 Greenvsile. May s.-(Special.) )-The spring term of the Circuit Court ad- journed last Thursday.
 It was in some respects the quietest court that has been held in the county for many years. There was 6 light docket for both weeks. and q number of pleas of guilty were taken which materially lessened the time of the court so that the docket was finished and the jury discharged about noon Thursday.
 Including the pleas of guilty there were thirty -one convictions, thirteen of whom were sentenced to hard labor for the county. The aggregate term run ming to seventeen years at SIP month would mai<s for the county some t2,s4s. Tn addition to this there were hnes assessed that amounted to sss7, making a total for the county of ss.- 32b.
 Hon. A. B. Gamble. County soltci- tor. who ln the absence of Colonel Bricken, the state Solicitor, informed us that the docket was cleared and at this time that there are only six pris- oners in the jail and none of them are charged with murder in any degree.
 There were four cases for violation of the prohibition law. Of these two were convicted and fined $50 each. One was thrown out because the witnesses were out Of the State. One case which had been carried up from the County Court was thrown out on account of a technical variation of the proceedings of the County Court as against those of the Circuit Court. This was a case where a white woman had been con- victed in the lower court and the case had been carried up to the higher.
 All of those sentenced to hard labor were negroes.

DEBATE ON TARIFF
scHEDULE ON PIG IRON LEAD GRE.
 ATEs DISCUSSION.
nfr. Burkett Conaemned Method By
 Which the. Finance Cemmittee \ Prepared Hts TarfR--BiIl wfth- out HezrfnEs.

Washington. May 8-<As soon as the
 tarifr bill was taken up by the Senate
 today and Section 1so. placing a duty
 of two and one-eighth cents per pound on pig lead was read. Senator Bristow
 arose to oppose the increase from one
 and one-half cents pound as provided in the House bill. He argued that the House has been judicious in It's act ion.
 rIt makes no difference what the House did from time to tinne." said Mir. Aidrich. interrupting. we are here to do Justice to this industry in view of the facts of this case" "The facts stated by this witness are the important things" interposed Mir. Beveridge, ''and It makes no difference what his personal views are on the tariff or on aeropianes."
 Mr. Burkett condemned the method by which the Committee on Finance prepared its tariff bill without hear ings.
 "rhese men," he said. ~have had to como here chasing Senators up and down these corridors in an effort to get hearing. The Senators may think the people are not watching this bill. But you cannot fool them on these schedules on lumber. wire. nails. steel. ana irons. Iney kHoW auoot those things and if we are to go out and de- fend the bill. 1t sems to me we ought
 to have. in print these men who know
 about these things and ought not to
 be left to grope about In the dark
 ness .as we have had to do." 1 Replying to Mir. Burkett. Mir. Ald- rich said that if the Senate stayed In session until all the Senators under- stood every scheme in the bill, they would not only be there allf summer. but for ten years.
 Mr. Carter undertook to refute any
 suggestion that the Senate had not had ample information regarding the schedules of the tariff. He exhibited lthe publications of the Ways and Means Committee of the House and of the Finance Committee of the Senate. as we'll as those of the various gov ernment bureaus and departments. He | said that the hearings held before the House would finally reach the cost of | $500, ,00O. and asked if there was any
 reason for the duplication of this work | by the Senate.
 | MT. BeveridgeN objected, saying that | the Finance Committee had reached
 certain of its conclusions from inform | ation which was not at the disposal os I most of the members of the Senate. | Mir. Newiands contended there was so much information that commission | should be appointed to reduce it and I present a digest of the conclusions to | be gathered from 1t.
 l Ma Carter then spoke In opposition | to a tariff commission.

Birmingham. May s.-(specisL)-- w. E.. Urquhart. Grand Master of the Independent Order of odd Fellows of Alabama, will. at the sixty-ninth an- nuai session to be held In Selma the coming week, commencing Tuesday. and continuing two or three days, recom- mend that there be decided reduction in the representation at the Grand Lodge meetings of the order. not only to relieve the business of the annual gatherings. but to reduce the expenses on the order.
 Something like 300 to zoo represen- tatfves with officers, receive per csp- ita during the annual meeting, travel ing expenses, etc., which means the expenditure annually of . large sum :. Another important matter that will be brought up at -the meeting in Selma will be that of 6 new charter for the Odd Fellows in this state.

the institution. 4 superintendent and matron have already been selected for the home and other arranCsmeDts made for the actual operation of the home. There will be other matters to come before the Grand Lodge meeting which promises to make it one of the most Important held in yearsrin this State. The erection Of the widows and or- phans' home has been an idea of some of the leading members of the order for many years. and now that the same is . reality 1t is intended to have a general rejoicing. The home has . capacity for reception of ITS persons. and the prospects are that there will bel an immediate application for large portion of the room.
 The odd Fellows are among the old est and largest orders In the State. and the Grand Lodge meetings are usually fully attended. According to the rec concentrations of Grand Master Urqu- hart. there can be . saving of thous- aflds of dollars annually by reducing the representation. This matter, too. has been up for many years and has always met with defeat.
