THE SUGAR
SCHEDULE
This Is Finally Fixed By Mr.
Aldrich in the Senate
Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator
Aldrich has succeeded in getting ac.
tion by the senate on the remainder
OF the sugar schedules, with the I'M
derstanding that the paragraph fix
ing the duty on raw and refined sugar
should be again placed before the SEN
ate if Senator Clay's health should so
improve as to permit of his taking
advantage of an opportunity at a later
date to move an amendment cutting
the figures in two.
The tobacco schedule was also COM
pleted. No changes were made in the
finance committee rates on either
schedule. The sugar, the tobacco and
agricultural schedule divided the at
tention of the Senate duriag the dag,
with incidental remarks on the side
by Senator Bacon and general tar
iff speech by Senator Stone.
Senators Gore, Brittow and Clay
criticised the provision for a duty on
raw and refined sugar, and Mr.. Clay
repeated his allegation of fraudulent
transactions in the interest of the
sugar trust. Mr.. Bristow declared
that the trust has benefited by the
defeat of his amendments of yester
day, and Mr.. Gore asserted that by
the adoption of the finance commit
tees provision, which was the same
as that passed by the house, only
cents on the hundred pounds of sugar
would be saved.

PEARL RIVER RAGING
AND STILL RISING
The A. G. v. Trains had to Detour Over
the Mississippi Central by Way Of
Brookhaven-The Full Tide of
Flood Not Reached.

The full tide of the floods have not
been reached yet, and today a washout
at Pearl river bridge, south of Jack.
son, detained the Gulf and Ship
Island train from Jackson for over
five hours, the train not reaching Hat
tiesburg until late in the afternoon.
The A. & V. trains, which have been
using the Gulf and Ship Island tracks
from Jackson to Hattiesburg since
Thursday, were today detoured over
the Illinois Central to Brookhaven,
then over the Mississippi Central 10
Hattiesburg, then on their round about
! journey to Meridian over the North
eastern.
Reports from every part of Eastern
Mississippi are coming in telling of
the great damage to crops and roads.
In many instances crops will have to
be replanted as what is left from the
| overflow is absolutely worthless.
/ Thousands of dollars have been lost
, within the past few days, and it seems
that the end is not yet reached. News
comes from Jackson that the United
States weather bureau has revised its
! Pearl river forecast, the latest bull4-
tin issued stating that the stream will
reach the S3-foot mark on the gauge
by Monday, or three feet higher than
indicated in the Wednesday morning
forecast.
At the rate the stream Is now ris-
ing it is not at all unlikely that the
33-foot stage will be exceeded, for The
river is now above the 30-foot mark
and steadily rising.
Heavy rains fell Thursday along the
upper courses of the stream, and this
volume of water will reach Jackson
about Monday afternoon or Tuesday
morning.
The stream is out of its banks and
rapidly spreading over the lowlands.
By tomorrow morning it will no doubt
be tapping the edges of the Rankin
turnpike, east of this city, and by Sun
day morning it is certain that all
wagon traffic with Rankin county will
be cut off, while it is not improbable
that the tracks of the A. G. V. road
between the Pearl river bridge and
Pearson station will go under.
Up and down the stream farmers
are removing their live stock to places
Of safety. The current in midstream
is so swift that the use of rowboats
is no longer safe. and old river men
are cautioning boat owners to not ven-
ture into the waters.

luxuries Exhausted.

While there is still plenty to eat in
the strike district, luxuries are ex-
hausted and good spenders" have
pockets full of money with no means
of getting rid of it. Checkers and
marbles. wired a correspondent from
the strike district today, is at present
the principal diversion of most of the
male population.
Social relations have been seriously
discouraged. Relatives have died and
their kinfolk have been unable to at
tend their funerals. Mothers on visits
have been unable to get home to
their children, and children some
times unable to get to school. But
the one thing of which the people feel
the need most keenly is ice.
A most forlorn commentary on the
whole unfortunate situation was
noted today in the person of an aged
darkey sitting by the roadside wait
ing for a meat wagon. He said that
wagon would bring him a side of
lean and fat" a favorite cut in this
section. He asked an automobile
party if they had seen his wagon "a.
comm" They told him no and
whirled on, and fourteen hours later
coming back they saw the same old
darkey sitting in the same spot fast
asleep awaiting the wagon which was
still a-comin'.

CLOSING EXERCISES
AT THE AUDITORIUM
Musical Program Is Sendered and Di-
pIomas Are Presented by the
Speaker to Bright Face Boys ana
Girls Who Have Passed.

The annual commencement exercises
of the Hattiesburg public schools were
held at the Auditorium last night,
and the house was well filled by
those interested in education and es
pecially those who We're. interested
in the graduating class, which was
large enough to reflect much credit
on the school faculty. The two boxes
were banked with flowers sent by ad.
miring friends of those who were 70
receive their diplomas.
Prof. T. B. Woodley, superintendent
of the school, presided and Dr.. Camp
bell, of the Bay Street Presbyterian
church invoked the divine blessings.
The feature Of the evening was the
address Of DR.. H. r. Lowry of Clinton
College, who made a very practical
talk, for the public as well as the grad
uating class. He spoke of the great
opportunities in Mississippi and the
necessity of preparing to make the
most of them and expressed his regret
that when it came to building a cap.
itol building, which should last
through ages, there were no architects
or builders in Mississippi with the
capacity of the work, because there
had been no preparation in that re-
spect, and it was necessary to go to
other states for an architect and a
builder.
DR.. Lowry said that on account of
the building of the Panama canal, he
expected to live to see the time when
there would be a solid city from Mo
bile to New orleans along the gulf
coast and he could not predict how
great Hattiesburg would be. He said
that man who could not succeed in
Mississippi would not find success
in Oklahoma, and that there were all
the opportunities here that could be
found anywhere and his only fear was
that strangers might come and take
that which ought to be secured by
Mississippians.
DR.. Lowry was greeted by liberal ap-
plause throughout his address which
showed that his hearers were in
hearty sympathy with his progressive
ideas. The only deviation from the
published program was that DR.. Lowry
presented the diplomas to the gradG-
ates instead of Prof. Phillips.
The musical program was as fol,

ATLANTA, Ca, May 29.-The first
violence to railroad property in the
Georgia firemen's strike occurred last
night to a moving freight at Lithonia,
Ca. and the race situation in conse-
uuence loomed more sharply than ever
over the situation, notwithstanding a
day of much apparent progress toward
settlement.
A negro fireman was apparently the
cause Of the trouble, and he was rush
ed TO Atlanta in an engine to save him
from what his engineer, at least, be-
lieved was a threatening situation.
The trouble started in the throwing Of
one or two stones and the boarding of
the freight by men, who set the brakes
and broke it into three sections. The
freight now blocks the main line of the
road and the progress of United States
mails which go out early this morning
To such a pitch was public excite
ment stirred by the affair that official
sourcesc gave the most conflicting YER
sions of it. The railroad officials
declared that it was the work of strike
sympathizers, while a county official
wired the governors office that it was
merely an accident.
The engine left here this afternoon
for Lithonia, under an arrangement
between Sheriff Morris, of DeKalh
county, and the railroad officials, to
bring a train load of perishable pro-
visions from the siding at Lithonit in
to Atlanta. Assurances have been CIV
en- the railroad for several days that
in the interest of local shippers, whose
valuable cars were tied up and suffer-
ing less by the strike, no demonstra-
tion would be made against hauling
these cars to Atlanta. When, however,
the engine from Atlanta pulled into
Lithonia about dark it was seen to car
ry a negro fireman, as did the mail
trains, which passed Lithonia earlier
in the day, exciting unfavorable com
ments.

ATLANTA Ga, May 27-Service
was continued on the Georgia Railroad
today with both negro firemen and
non-union firemen on the engines. No

of a mail train through Lithonia,
where the freight train was taken
away from the crew yesterday after
noon. Up to noon today no further
reports of violence had been reported.
