national chairman of the railroad com

His letter is as follows:
Let Well Enough Alone
Suffolk, Va. Sept, I, 1914 /
State Railroad Commission, Az
lanta, Ga;
Gentlemen-I see you have not
rendered any decision in regard to
pulling mileage on the train. am
in Baltimore for a few days and
the travelling men who 60 South
here again have asked me to write
you and say we think II would be
much better to let the mileage mat
ter rest just where it is. I am quite
sure Georgia otherwise would be In
the same fix as South Carolina, and
the travelling men would rather let
well enough alone l am sure We
can not compel the roads to sell In
Interchangeable mileage unless they
wish to do so.
Thanking you gentlemen in ad-
vance for doing that which win
benefit the greatest number, by
letting the travelling men get the
exchange ticket for mileage, Yours
truly,
(Signed) w. NJ. JOINER.

THREE THOUSAND DELEGATES
IN DETROIT TO-DAY FOR THE
CONVENTION
HITS BANKING SYSTEM
Robert w. Bonynge, Member Of the
Commission, Addresses Bankers on
the Subject, Banking and Currency
Reform"

Detroit, Mich, Sept 1O.-The ma
tional convention of the American
Bankers Association began here to-
day with three thousand delegates
present
After the addresses of welcome, it
is planned to dispose of a number OF
formal reports and listen to the ad-
dress on Banking and Currency Re-
FORM" by Robert w. Bonynge of Den
yer, a member of the commission. He
expressed it as his opinion that now
is the time for critics of the proposed
National Reserve association, as rec
ommended by the National Monetary
commission, 20 come forward and
point out what they believe to be the
defects in the plan.
"Our banking and currency system
is universally recognized as thor
oughly unsound," said Bonynge. "All
of the political PARTIES have declared
In their platforms of this year in ia
vor of its reformation, but no specific
remedial legislation has been propos-
ed by any. 1t is perhaps better that
they should not have done so. The
prahlcm ia essentially n economic
and business question. The defects
in the existing system that must be
remedied no matter which party is
charged with the responsibility Of
framing the legislation are: Our I'M
scientific treatment of bank reserves,
the rigidity OF our entire credit sys-
tenn and the lack of cooperation be-
tween our independent banks"
Reports are scheduled for this af-
ternoon, but the convention planned
to break the routine by an address
from United States Senator Town
sent Of Michigan.

Little Rock, Ark, Sept 9.-Wlth
Clear weather today over the entire
state an unusually large vote was
polled in the state election. Demo
Gratis and republicans had complete
tickets in the field and the social
lists entered Il candidate for govern
or. Joe T. Robinson, congressman
from the sixth district, heads the
democratic ticket; A. l.. Roland Is
the republican nominee and G. T..
Mikel, the socialist.
Counting of the vote is slow work,
because the ballots contain in ad-
dition to the state ticket two meas
ures referred to the people by the
general assembly and three yros-A' %
constitutional amendments.
Interest centers in the state--
wide prohibition amendment. early
returns from several small towns
indicate that the "wets" were slight
ly in the lead.
Many negroes flocked to the polls
in an effort to defeat the grand
father clause, the passing OF which
would deny to many of them the
privilege of the ballot.
Reports from many points 1ndl-
cate that because Of the length or
the ballot no effort Will be made
to tabulate the result until tomor-
row.
In those counties where there Is
large negro population there Will
be a heavy vote of both republicans
and democrats, but in the counties
where there are few republicans the
democratic vote will be light. The
democratic state ticket will be elect
ed, but no estimate can be made or
the majority it will receive.

The typhoon of August 20 swept
over several provinces on the eastern
coast of China, including Che Kiang
and Fukien, Previous telegraphic ad-
vices reported great loss of life and
damage to property around Foo Chow,
the sea at the mouth of the Min
river being strewn with hundreds of
bodies. The province of Che Kiank,
which has a population of about 12,-
600 consists in part of flat lowlands
and is considered one of the most fer
tilep rovinces of China. IN conse-
quence of the floods, the inhabitants
will be in danger of famine. Last
year the flood caused by the overflow
of the Yang Use river which was the
most extensive in memory, resulted in
the death by drowning of 100, 900 per-
sons and left millions to face starva-
ton.

10000 POUNDS
DYNAMITE SHOT
BIGGEST SHOT EVER FIRED DIS
LODGES 100000 SQUARE YARDS
OF STONE.
From New York World.

At 2:30 yesterday afternoon the
manager of the quarries at CruSher
connected the field wires to %
hole battery and with single pull
of the handle flashed the spark to the
Illuminated caps which detonated fifty
thousand pounds of sixty per cent Du
Pont dynamite. In the twinkling OF
an eye the mountain side which had
rested beneath the sunshine OF centu-
ries rose, trembled, and in a mass OF
purgcn. smoke and typhoon OF
dust and debris fell crushed and rem
dered in great mass of chaos and
destruction.
II. c. Manning, manager of the
Crusher plant, superintended the work
of loading the holes, which averaged
one hundred and twenty-five leet i'll
depth. There We're Twenty-Five OF
these holes and in the pockets which
had been sprung at their bottoms re
posed ton upon ton of the giant de-
structive. The loading had been done
by two expert powder men, while an
expert sent out by the DUPONT people
stood by and personally superintend-
ed the work. After the wires had all
been connected from hole to hole and
the lead wire taken to the battery
the reople were all removed to a dis
tance of a half mile, with the eXcep-
ton of Photographer Webb, Manager
Manning and Alex Palmer The final
connection was made to the innocent
looking little box in whose breast re-
posed the magic spark which would
flash the whisper of destruction to the
sleeping dynamite.
The inhabitants OF the little town
of Crusher had all been removed to
a safe distance. With Webb, the
photographer, George Corhn, J. a. Biy-
ems and Alex Palr'er of Ardmore, the
representative of the DUPONT Powder
Company, two visitors from Chicago
and the two old timers who had
charged the holes, II. C.Manning, the
superintendent, connected the two
ends of the field wires to the battery 5
poles. gave a quick lift upward fol-
lowed by a rapid down push and, to
use the words of one who was present
hell was turned loose
Owing to the great depth OF the
holes and the big face which the shot
had to carry in front of it, the con-
cussion was comparatively slight
while the detonation was not great.
The quick action of dynamite, acting
as Il does / nevery direction stimuli
taneously, ground and shattered the
stone irto bits, the largest piece un-
