fore there was serious consequences the

ter by aIresting two white men.
In the morning the people Of North
Georgia, in the strike district, had de-
livered an ultimatum that negro fire
men should not be allowed to operate
engines except on the ma trains. This
uitimatum came in the form OF strong
~ worded protests from nearly every
community along the railroad, voicing

OF the United States mails. To what

~ out this ultimatum puzzled the au-
thorities here. It was known that this
intolerant spirit forced the resumption
OF the negotiations toward arbitration.

ciared that the moment the Georgia
railroad attempted to move passengers

property might be destroyed and thar
certainly chaotic and dangerous con-
ditiOn would result

in Copper Center gulch. Not knowing that
the roadbed for a number of rods at the
end OF the track had been filled in with
loose dirt, they ran the train a little too
far. the cars falling over on the dump
dragging the engine with them. The
fireman seeing the danger jumped out Of
the cab window, while the engineer went
around on the foot board. The engine
fell onto the car in such a way that the
engineer was piniOned between the foot
board and the car. the whole wreckage
being sunk in the mud caused by recent
rains. Men who were near ran to their
relief and worked for an hour and forty
five minutes before the engineer was re
leased from his perilOus position. Medical
aid was summoned and ne was taken to
the local hospital where IL was found
that he was badly crushed in the region
of the groin. The full extent of his in
juries can not now be determined. Fisher
had his foot badly scalded. ROebuck was
