new DEVELOPMENTS
in THE SITUATION
Mount Olive Station Is Said To Be
Closed, And Saratoga is Expected to
Close Today.-vice-President Jones
Makes Statement.

Up to the present time, fifty-onG
telegraph operators formerly employ
ed by the Gulf and Ship Island rail
road company, have complied with the
strike order and have reported at
headquarters in Hattiesburg, accord
ing to Deputy President Tanquary,
who is in charge of the local situa-
tion.
The operators have rented apart
ments on the second floor of the Nc
Leod building on Main and Pine
streets, and today are having lights
and fans installed, together with fur
niture and other things calculated to
make the place comfortable.
Another phase of the trouble lead
ing up to the strike, and of which the
public has not heretofore been ad-
vised, was related to a News reporter
this morning by Mr.. ]. o. Bolton, an
old employe of the railroad, and who
has for the past few years been 10
Gated at Mount Olive, as station agent
Mr.. Bolton stated that after the oper-
ators had been notified by the rail
road officials that all contracts would
be cancelled on July 1, the travelling
auditor of the railroad called upon
him at Mount Olive and presented to
him a paper, which he was requested
to sign.
Mr. Bolton refused to sign the
agreement, he says, and was then and
there asked to resign, which he did.
Mr.. Bottoms position as agent was
filled by a man from another station,
it is said, and because of the fact that
the people of Mount Olive were in
sympathy with the operators, the new
agent was requested to leave town,
and the station was closed last night
Reports received at strike headquar-
ters today are to the effect shat the
citizens of Saratoga have determined
to follow Mount Olives example, and
the depot there is expected to close
today.
Company Issues Statement.
Grlfport, June 20.
To the Public: Exaggerated re-
ports have gone out to the public con-
cerning differences supposed to be ex-
listing between the agents, operators
and telegraphers of the Gulf and Ship
Island railroad company and the COM
pany, and, further, concerning reports
of purpose to reduce salaries of such
employees. think it just to the rail-
road company, its employees and the
public to say that the difference con-
sists only in the fact that the Gulf and
Ship Island railroad company, deem
ing that its interest and that of the
public could best be conserved by so
doing, declined to make contract
with the o. r. T., q former agreement
between them having been cancelled
according to the very terms of the
agreement. The employees of the
road had ample notice of the purpose
of the road in this respect.
Fourteen agents left their offices to-
day, and all their places have been
supplied with competent men, and the

BOARD 10 Gather Talent.

ures of the Business High School Alumni

A special committee. composed Of Mer-
rrI T. Galllher. Robert c. Tracy, and
William c. Sullivan, was appointed to
enlist the interest of those members Of the
association who have talent along musi-
cal and dramatic lines. and it Is likely
that a vaudeville performance viii be
given in the early fall and some good
musical comedy later in the season. If
these meet with the success that is an
ticipated, Il Is probable that the dra-
matte club will become one Of the per-
manent features of the association.
The employment work OF the associa-
ton was given a big boost at this meet
ing by the decision Of the committee TO
employ a permanent clerk al the BUsi-
ness High School to answer all inquiries
that may come in there, whether for re-
cent graduates, who have had little or
no experience, or for those who have
| been out In the business world some
/ time. The great success with which the
recent excursion of the association met
has enabled II to do this by providing
| funds to carry on the work.
| Another new feature OF the associa-
ton, which was proposed by the retiring
president at the annual meeting, is that
la night dictation class be started at tbs
school In the fall for the advancement
of stenographers in speed work, attend.
ance TO be without charge to member:
of the association. This was the sub
| ject Of a great deal Of discussion, and
the president was authorized to appoint
a committee to report on the ACCESSIBILITY
of starting such class this year.
Those present at the meeting of the ex
ecutive committee were Orville B. Drown

Crane, vice presidents; z. P. Corbett

Another District record came 10 light
yesterday when Tax Collector Rogers. in
his report to the Commissioners, stated
there is an increase OF $4,000 in the total
amount OF taxes in the last two years,
showing a substantial growth in the
financial status of the city.
The largest income Is that Of the fiscal
year Just ended. 1t amounted to SI7l7'-
Oo4S2. which includes everything from
the taxes on real and personal property
TO the sale OF dog licenses and the thou
sands OF minor items which help swell
the fund.
Exceeded by S1,50O,OOO.
What is particularly pleasing is the fact
that two years ago a committee, com
posed of the auditor, the assessor, and
the collector of taxes, computed that the
income for the year just past would be
&C. Cog 600. on which the estimates for the
concentrations were based. These figures
are exceeded by more than H.500.Oo0 This
years sum was larger by $225,SlO.7 than
that of last year.
A .eticeable feature in this years fig
ures IS that the amount collected from
personal assessments is unusually large,
being sf,Oo0,e05si. with the addition OF
81 800 Is for penalties. The taxes on real
estate summed up sass. 4S3-S5 with penal
ties Of s35.a6S.OS The other miscellaneous
receipts were Sg76,3652l The collections
