Through Trestlc, Causing Three
Deaths, Il Investigated.

Officers and trainmen giving testi-
mony for three hours before the rail.
road commission yesterday failed to
shed any new light on the cause of
the wreck at Hooper's creek, on the
Lancaster * Chester railway, July 80,
when three lives were lost All wit
nesses giving testimony were closely
questioned by the members of the
commission.
Much testimony of a technical ma
ture was taken in an attempt TO de-
termine the cause OF the wreck. Each
member of the train crew testified
that he did not know what caused the
wreck, but thought that it was either
the gondola or the loaded coal car
that jumped the track. No direct tes-
timony was given as to which car on
the train left the track first. All wit
nesses testified that the train was not
going more than 90 miles an hour
when the cars fell through the trestle.
After asking for certain records as
To the weight of the cars and the
weight OF loads, the commission al =.

In the supreme court room at the
state house. T. Y. Williams of Lam
caster appeared as attorney for the
Lancaster 4 Chester road j. l..
Glenn, j. III. Marion and A. l.. Gas
ton, attorneys of Chester, representing
passengers who were injured in the
wreck, also appeared at the hearing.
Several witnesses were questioned in a
general manner by the attorneys. Most
OF the questions were asked by John
G.. Richards, Jr., chairman of the rail-
road commission. G.. McDuffle Hamp-
ton, commissioner, also questioned the
witnesses, principally on the testimony
bearing on the technical side of the
hearing. b. l.. Caughman, member
OF the commission, was present at the
hearing.
We wish 20 have q free and frank
hearing. We want to get at the cause
OF the wreck. If there is any one who
desires to testify, let him come Cor
ward" said Chairman Richards, AT
the conclusion of the hearing. The

WILL CONSIDER MARKETING
One of Many Important Subjects for
Common Good Conference.

After the crop is made what is to
be done with it? Marketing is not
so simple as it may seem; for the
best prices cannot be had with hap
hazard unloading on the market. The
field must be prepared by co-opera-
ton, and low rates must be secured
in this way before the farmer with
diversified crops can meet competition
or the one-crop farmer get a fair
return. To dump cantalOupes, for
example, upon an overloaded market
is about as sensible as shooting them
at the moon with smokeless powder,
for powder is cheaper than freight
bills. Some years ago farmers plow-
ed acres Of this melon under be-
cause the price was too low to pay
to ship to market. Disposing Of the
product clearly needs as much thought
as producing it.
Now, if farmer and consumers
could get nearer together, both would
undoubtedly be benefited While this
ideal situation will not ,e attained al
together at the Conference for the
Common Good, to be held in COlum
bia, August CO, and following that,
in the various counties, the meeting
will, among other subjects, consider
this all important one of what to do
with the product after it is produced
at the cost Of months Of toll and an
xiety. The result of the conference
will be to draw market and farm
closer together.
The conference has been fortu-
nate in securing the services of such
men as +. w. Dabbs. President of the
Farmers Union; w. w. Long, Of the
state Farm Demonstration Work; B.
.. Hare, of the office of Rural Econ
Omics of the u. 5. Department of Ag-
riculture; w. II. Meadows, the Gov
eminent Cotton TechnOlogist; j. w
Shuford, Of Hickory, y. c., Mrs. w
:. Mather, President Of the House.
wives League of Charleston, :. c.:
Clarence Poe, Editor of the Progres
sive Farmer, and several farmers OF

slider marketing, under such topics
as the following: Typical Examples
Of Loss to Farmers on Account of
Poor Marketing. Creating Home
Market for Home Products, Cooper
ative Marketing in North Carolina,
and Marketing the Cotton Crop. The
discussion will be open to all farm
ers and to any others interested.
This is but part Of the program
Other broad topics to be taken up in
detail are: Cooperation for Rural
Development; The Part OF the Church
in Rural Development; Permanent
Homes for Our People; with plans for
helping mill workers purchase homes
and for tenant farmers to acquire
land: Education and Child Welfare;
and Problems of citizenship
