First Train
Leaves Augusta

AUGUSTA, GA, Oct. 3.-The f1rst
train on the Georgia railroad to leave
Augusta since the beginning Of the
strike of conductors and trainmen de-
parted from the Union station this
morning at 8:35 o'clock for Atlanta,
just five minutes later than the regular
scheduled time. In charge OF the en-
CINE was Engineer John w. Perkins, OF
245 Telfair street, Augusta, with his
regular negro fireman. The conductor
and fagman were strikebreakers, who
arrived in the city late yesterday after
noon over the Atlantic Coast Line from
New York A regular Pullman con-
ductor had charge OF the Pullman chair
car The train carried mail to various
points along the road which have had
mo mail since the beginning OF the

Strike breakers Won
Over To Union Side.

According to statement made by j.
r. Hunt. one Of their number, at least
twenty of the men recruited to break
the strike dropped off the train en-
route to Atlanta and an equal number
disappeared when Atlanta was reached.
He said that the majority OF them
had come to Atlanta under misrepre-
sensations. They were not informed,
he maintained, that they were hired to
break strike. He said many were
not skilled trainmen and had been en-
ployed as fast as they applied in an
swer to advertisements In New York
and Philadelphia newspapers.
Officials OF the Georgia railroad were
confident this morning that No. 2
would make the run to Augusta with
out interruption and the opening Of
the line after the 36-hour tieup would
mean that traffic would be resumed.
One train a day is the schedule that
the company hopes to maintain from

No Disorder AS
Detectives Watch.

While officials were busy getting the
mail transferred to the coach attached
to the rear, union men and union sym
pathizers stood in knots in the Union
station and watched the proceedings
with more than interest.
There was no sign Of disorder, al
though a haif-dozen policemen and
four or FIVE detectives loitered through
the crowd watching for any signs of
trouble.
The railroad officials announced that
passengers would be accepted by the
company and would be guaranteed q
safe trip to Augusta They said that
no trouble was expected anywhere
along the line.
The strikers gave no intimation that
they meant to interfere with the OPP
GRAFTON Of the first train, and confined
their efforts to winning over the strike
breakers by argument.

The committee had already learned
that 100000 had been contributed by
