ATTACKED TRAIN CREW.
Officer Face Fight When They Re
fuses to Garry Dogs.

Angered because Of refusal Of the
conductor to allow dogs to be carried
on the train some parties at Parr
Shoals, twenty-three miles from Co.
lumbia, Wednesday afternoon knock
down Conductor T. ". True and his
porter and slightly injured Engineer
Orr, either by stray bullet or bullet
of lumber, as Train No. IA, OF the
Southern Railway, pulled out OF Parr
Shoals for Columbai. The conduc-
tor is said to have been hit across
the head with a piece Of wood and is
painfully bruised. 1t is thought that
Engineer Orr was hit by bullet tr-
ed by some members Of the crowd
but this is uncertain. He was only
slightly wounded. The negro porter
was knocked down and bruised.
According to the information avail
able. it seems that when Train NO.
IA reached Parr Shoals some parties
there wanted to put two dogs on the
train, but as they were not pFo'iueu
with either collars or chains, as re-
ouired by law, Codnuctor True de-
clined to permit the dogs aboard and
signalled for the train to go ahead.
The one wanting the dog carried,
sngered by the refusal, is said to
have started towards the trainmen'
Conductor True received lick across
the head with a piece OF wood. One
story is to the effect that the negro
porter rushing to the assistance OF
the conductor, was confronted by a
gun in the hands Of one of the party
and abruptly halted only to be knock
ed down. The trainmen recovered
themselves and got aboard, but Engl-
neer Orr received a wound from a
stray bullet or from a piece OF wood

Freeing the Banana.

Only by the necessity OF raising
revenue could tariff duty on banan-
as be explained, and the amount OF
revenue collected would have been
small. In the circumstances, now
ever, the removal Of the duty In the
pending bill is justified because OF
the malicious efforts made in many
quarters to misrepresent the whole
business. Whether the trifing tax
would have really Increased the price
of bananas to consumers is doubtful.
So little was to be gained in the form
of duties to the Government that the
experiment was not worth the risk.
The New York World says among all
articles Of food, sugar is the ideal
revenue, producer, but in keeping
with their pledges to untax the ne
cessaries OF life the Democrats nave
placed 1t on the free list. Having
done that at the cost Of sacrificing SO
much revenue, it would have been OBJ
viously inconsistent and altogether
inexpedient to select for taxation for
the first time an article Of food that
enters so largely into general con-
sumption among the poor as does the
banana.

PLAN A CONFEDERACY.
Five Mexican States Propose to Sc
cede From the Republic.

At a conference held at Hermolll-

decided to secede from the federal
government to form the Confederate
States of Mexico, according to Ameri-
cans arriving at Ell Paso, Texas, We'd
nesday, from Hermosillo.
The states whose representatives
agreed to the secession plan are:
Sonora, Durongo, Coahulla, Sinalao,
and Chihuahua. Only the rebel gov
ernment in Chihuahua Joined in the
movement. Venustiano Carranza is
to be president Of the new confed-
eracy, the Americans say, and in his
cabinet will be Gen. Angeles, for
mer federal commander, as minister
of war; Augustin Labansat, minister
Of haciendas, and Juan Sanchez Azzo-
cana, minister Of foreign relations.
Eduardo Hay, it is said, also will be
given a cabinet place. Lower Cali

ernment, az its promoters say the

FOR A SECOND DISTRICT
PRESIDENT INDORSES PLAN FOR
SOUTH CAROLINA.
Does Not Wish Undue Haste, But
Thinks Duplication of Officers
Should Come in Regular Course.

It became known at Washington
Thursday that President Wilson IS
quite anxious to have the bill intro
duced by Representative Aiken a few
days ago providing for the creation
of another judicial district in South
Carolina, with additional court Off
Gals, or one similar to it, passed at
an early date. The matter has gone
so far that Representative Clayton,
chairman of the House judiciary
committee, passed the matter over to
Attorney General McReynolds and
the latter has given his thorough ap-
proval to the plan. Mr.. McReynolds
went deeply into all the bills that
have been offered on this subject, d.
gested them carefully, and ascertain
ed from members of congress and
others who are in a position to know
what the reasons were for the rall-
ure Of these ')ills to pass in years
gone by. That having been done,
according to what was learned at
Washington Thursday, the situation
was presented to the president and
he thinks that it might be well to
have the new district authorized, but
he, it is said, is opposed to proVld-
ing for such authorization in one OF
the emergency bills, as is often done.
The suggestion was made that the
matter be cared for in one of the
emergency bills, or as is known at
WASHINGTON, one Of the deficiency"
bills, but this plan did not meet with
the presidents approval. He thinks
that the measure should take It's
regular course when the next session
of congress begins in December, and
this is what will likely be done.
The three members of the House
who are most directly interested in
the result of the proposed action are
Representatives Aiken, johnson and
Byrnes. Representatives Aiken and
Byrnes are most enthusiastic con-
corning the bill. A part Ct Mr..
Byrnes' district, all Mr. Johnson's
and all Mr.. Aiken's would be includ-
ed in the new western district and 1t
is said that they are receiving many
letters and kilograms from lawyers
and other interested parties in upper
South Carolina, encouraging their ef-
forts.
The appointment Of an additional
district attorney and marshal with
other court officials and the holding
of courts in several OF the largest
towns which would be included in
the new western district would add
stimulus to federal matters in that
part Of the State and besides Great
ing these new Offices the plan would
mean that the holding Of these addl-
tional courts would naturally cause
much money to be spent one way and
another in those towns. For all of
these reasons upcountry people are
helping along and the prospects are
good for the passage Of the bill at
the next session.

LOWEST GOVERNMENT FIGURES
IN TEN YEARS. .
Condition Of Crop in South Carolina
Il Per cent.-California Ranks
First With 100 Per Cent.

The condition OF the cotton crop
Of the United States on Thursday,
September 25, was 64.1 per cent. OF
a normal, compared with 68.2 per
cent. on August 25, 1913; 69.2 per
cent. on September 25, 1912, Ill
per cent. on September 25, 1911, 65.9
per cent. on September 25, 1910, and
6S.6 per cent, the average Of the
past ten years on September 25. This
announcement was made at noon
Thursday by the crop reporting
board, bureau Of statistics, United
States department. of agriculture, in
it's final condition report Of the sea-
son, the condition being estimated
from reports Of its correspondents
and agents throughout the cotton
belt.
During the early part Of the grow
ing season this year conditions were
favorable in the Western cotton
states ond unfavorable in the East
ern cotton states; as the season ad-
vanced, however, prospects declined
in the West and improved somewhat
in the East.
Until the latter part Of the month,
which Thursdays report covered,
there was severe drought in Texas,
Oklahoma and Southern Missouri,
but this was 5roken very generally
during the third week Of the period,
the heovy rains at points in those
states as we'll as in portions Of Ar
kansas were thought to have caused
some damage to the open cotton.
During the second week of the period
high winds and heavy rains were
thought to have caused some dana ge
in Eastern North Carolina. In that
week the drought was reported as
severe over much Of Tennessee and
portions of South Carolina, while the
drought in Arkansas was consider
ably relieved.

knows that the South will never for

the most abject race in the world.
Hence, If under the name Repuoll-

yersal benefcence and the Democrat

TWO DOCTORS POISONED
ACCIDENTAL KNIFE WOUNDS
NAY CAUSE DEATH.
In Performing Operations For Others
Health They Receive Poisonous

Two New York surgeons were at
the point of death Wednesday night
from blood poisoning as a result OF
infection incurred in the performing
| of operations. One was Dr.. Robert
Morrison, Of No. 354 Tompkins ave-
| nue., Brooklyn, head Of the faculty of
! Williamsburg Hospital, the other, DR..
J Emil Boehm head of the second sur
gical division at Bellevue. DR.. Boehm
is twenty-seven years old and a grad
uate of last year from John Hopkins
University.
Last Tuesday DR.. Boehm operated
on patient at Bellevue for the re-
moval Of a carbuncle. In the course
of his work he laid his knife aside.
A piece of gauze chanced to cover
it, and when DR.. Roehm had occa-
sion to reach for another instrument
the infected point of the knife prick
ed the ball of his left thumb, he be-
ing left-handed.
Despite the pain DR.. Boehm fin
ished his operation. In his room he
took what seemed sufficient antisep-
tic measure but the tiny wound did
not heal. BY Friday his entire hand
had swollen, and he called in DR..
BENJAMIN ]. Lee, visiting surgeon,
who performed an operation. The
swelling stopped at the wrist, but
by that night there were evidences
that the poison had spread through
out the young mans system.
Telesrams were sent Saturday to
Dr.. Boehm's father and brother, who
are physicians in St. Louis, and a
sister arrived from that city. We'd
nesday night Dr.. Boehm's tempera-
ture had arisen to 105 degrees, and
it was feared that he would not re-
cover. He has been in his present
position only since July /.
DR.. Morrison performed an opera
ticn Saturday afternoon on two-year-
old Edward Montase Of No. IL Grand
street who was suffering from rup-
ture Of the appendix. When sew
ing up the incision DR.. Morrison
pricked his finger with the needle.
Soon after he reached his summer
home in Bay Shore the wound began
to bother him and in spite Of the pre-
cautions he took, swelling set in vio-
lently.
Sunday DR.. Morrison came In to
the hospital and took counsel with
his colleagues. DR.. William c. Lip
poid performed an operation which
revealed a dry infection from which
no pus could be removed by any
opening. The swelling continued IN
til his entire arm had been affected.
By Sunday night DR.. Morrison s
fever had risen until he passed into
delirium. Monday brought him no
relief, and Tuesday it was believed
he was dying. The boy OF whom he
performed the operation died within
short time thereafter.
DR.. Morrison has been connected
with Williamsburg Hospital for sew
eral years, and has been active In all
its affairs. At his Tompkins avenue
home lives his son Russell, who is
also a physician.
