Cabinet viii Send Knapp.
WASHINGTON, May 2s.-President Taft
and his cabinet considered the Georgia
railroad strike today and decided that
Chairman Knapp OF the Interstate Com
merce commission should go at once to
Atlanta TO Use his efforts to effect adjust
ment Of the trouble or at least force com
pliance with the Interstate law.
1t was also decided that Second Assistant
Postmaster General stewart should go to
Atlanta to look after the movement of the
mails.
The Postoffice department Is not inclined
TO act favorably upon the suggestion Of Vice
President Ball of the Brotherhood OF Lo-
connective Firemen to designate some one
to confer with him upon the question of
the movement of the mails, as the. Georgia
railroad is looked to for the performance
Of that service. Officials were greatly
pleased to receive advices that mail cars
had been sent from Atlanta and Augusta
this morning.
Attorney General Wickersham today re-
ceived a telegram from United States At
torney Tate at Atlanta stating in effect
that while the Georgia railroad strike was
still acute there was fair prospect Of an
adjustment OF the difficulties.
Mail Clerks Are Negroes.
AUGUSTA, Ga, May S--With a regular
crew, including a negro fireman. the first
train over the Georgia railroad since last
Saturday left Augusta at 7:S o'clock this
morning. The train consisted of mail cars
only, manned by negro mail clerks. No
unusual demonstration marked the depart
uTe Of the train.
Reports from Harlem, Boonville and
Thomson, the latter forty-five miles out of
Augusta say the train passed through
those places without incident.
Unless there are immediate steps taken
by the officials of the Georgia railroad 10
restore train service it is reported that the
state Of Georgia may interfere TO settle the
strike. The state is a stakeholder in the
Georgia railroad and under the state law
has power to operate trains.
Reports received here from the line Of
the Georgia railroad state supplies OF fuel
and other indications OF preparations to
start trains are being made at way sta
tions. There are twenty-one idle engines
along the main line between here and Au-
gusta.

is the pith OF .. ristian idea of
life-that it be service. Christ
went about doing good, healing as
we'll as preaching and teaching. Our
Good Samaritan Hospital offers us,
every one of us, the opportunity to
try to do for the sick and suffering
what Christ did 1t is in no sense
denominational in it's treatment of
the sick; but stands with doors wide
open to serve, as far as possible, all
of whatever color or belief who seek
its healing shelter.
81 lovingly urge every churchman,
and all who hear or read this pastor
al, to give literally, as God has pros
pered them, and as a real expression
of their thankfulness to this worthy
cause on Thanksgiving Day
