BUSINESS REVIVAL

In conversation with~a prominent
wholesaler OF coal and coke yester-
day, Leader representative was
iii formed that the demand for coke
has increased rapidly within the past
few weeks and the price Is now fair
ly remunerative. The coal trade is
also satisfactory. Western business
Is good. Conductor p VI Shrews-
bury said yesterday that he did not
see how the Norfolk and Western
could handle much more traffic than
Is now handled west OF Vivian.
While many of the colieries are not
yet running on full time, ali OF them
show an increase. For many months
some of them did not average three
days week, and Ii Is only by COM
parisol with the dull season that the
real Improvement in business is APP
parent. Almost every business man
in the coalfield is optimistic ami ex-
poets big revival of business in
the early fall.

TOO YOUNG TO RETIRE

Col. James S. Browning OF Po-
cahontas. was in the city last night
aEC in a conversation with Leader
man he said he was yet too young
to think Of retiring from business.
Since his recent big sale to the Big
Vein Pocahontas Co. there has been
much speculation among his friends
as to what he would do, and many of
them have suggested that he buy a
home in Richmond. Norfolk or
Washington ami enjoy life. Col.
Browning said that such a life would
not be attractive to him. His ac-
|quaintance in either of those cities
would be limited and he much pre-
ferred the society OF his lifelong
friends. Besides. he could rot think
OF retiring from business. His faith
er. Jesse Browning, OF Washington
county. Va, is "a years of age and
an active farmer. Recently he al
mitted that he was getting old and

Years earlier, but with such a splen-
did example before him, the Colonel
dill not think he could be content
to live n life of idleness. At pres
ent he is running his big Tbbs Val
Icy farm Of about 1000 acres, and
n finds a good deal to interest him
there. Whether he continues on the
farm or engages in other pursuits
he has no intention of leaving the
section where he has spent the best
years of his life.

INVESTIGATING
CONTRACT LABOR

examination of the chief witness for
the government, immigration Chief
Raymond c. Brown.
Brown stated that he did not re-
member the conversation in Brec-
kon's office although he was perfectly
willing 20 have his memory refreshed
and he would answer yes or mo"
to any question, leading or otherwise,
that Attorney Claudius Mcbride, re-
presenting the Hindu, might ask.
Breckons, representing Uncle Sam,
moved to strike out any reference to
any alleged investigation having to
do with alleged violation Of the con-
tract labor laws, and Mcbride hasten
ed to remark that he did not want to
pry into any of the heavy secrets of
the District Attorneys Office.
Breckons stated, with a suggestive
smile, that Mcbride need not worry
about the violations of the contract la
Dor law, alleged; for whatever was to
come out would come out when it
was ready.
This was all a by-play as far as
the gentlemen of the jury were con-
cerned, and, of course, had no bearing
on the merits of the case, but, be that
as it may, the information was made
public that Breckons with the aid OF
immigration Chief Brown, is investi-
eating conditions of violation which
may result in trouble for some very
influential concerns, or which may
amount to nothing at all, at all.

-MANCHuRIA LEFT
HUNDRED BEHIND

With the largest list Of cabin pas
sengers ever carried, the Pacific Mail
steamer Manchuria, Captain Dixon, ar
rived off port early this morning and
came alongside of the Hackfeld dock
shortly before ten O'Clock.
The Manchuria is carrying 254 first
dlass passengers, 1913 for Honolulu,
and the rest through. Before leaving
San Francisco over 100 passengers
were turned away, as there was no
room for them, and on the trip down
each room was taxed to it's full capa-
city, which seems to indicate that
more ships are necessary to bring the
people that want to come here.
For Honolulu the Manchuria has
four hundred tons of freight and l6S
passengers, distributed as follows: 1873
first class, 27 second and three steer
age.
On Saturday the entire day was
given up to field sports, and in the
evening a large full dress ball was
given which was enjoyed by all.
Thanksgiving day was celebrated in
the usual way, and everyone on board
speaks we'll of the treatment they re-
