POST OFFICES
ARE TIED UP
HITCHCOCK AND TAFT AT OUTS.
MRS. CARMACk AGAIN
MENTIONED.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May PIT
was learned Friday that the Presi-
dents inclination to postpone post
Office nominations in Tennessee is at
tributable primarily to the sharp diff
ferences between the Brownlow and
Evans factions in the state. Postmas-
ter-General Hitchcock is well known
to be leaning in his sYmpathies to-
ward the Evans faction, while 1t can
be stated upon authority equally as
reliable that President Taft is sympa-
thetically inclined toward the Brown
low faction Hence the delay In the
matter of postoffce appointments in
Tennessee. 1t is expected that the
Tennessee situation will be the sub
ject of an early conference between
The Postmaster-G General and the Pres
ident, following which there will be a
batch of nominations.
Senator Taylor, member OF the Post
office Committee, said that the last
interview he had with the President
on the subject of the Columbia post
office, the latter expressed himself fav-
orably toward the nomination of Mrs.
Edward w. Carmack.

FRENCH STRIKE
DECLARED OFF
GOVERNMENT WINS AND Fedora
TON OF LABOR THROWS
UP SPONGE.

PARIS, May 24.-The curtain was
rung down Friday upon the general
strike and protestations by the lead
ers who tried to throw the RESPONSE
bility for the failure on each other and
the defeated postal employees. The
end came when a few hundred labor
ers voted to resume work. The Gen
eraI Federation of Labor then threw
I'D the sponge and issued manifesto
in which they seek to cover up their
retreat, explaining that the postal en-
ployes were overconfident of the sue
cess of their second strike, which
everything shows was prepared and
instigated by the Government, which
was DESTROYS of an opportunity for
avenging itself against the leaders OF
the first strike"
With tn esurrender of the General
Federation of Labor, the strike OF the
postmen. which already had practical
" ended, collapsed entirely, and the
few men who were still on strike de-
cided to return to their offices and try
to secure their old positions. The
postmen and a few of the other I'M
ions are now raising fund by which
to give the dismissed postal employees
$50 a month until they can obtain
other employment.
