NEGRO IS KILLED BY
RAILROAD OFFICER
Detective Payne of Southern
Shoots HudsOn-CorOner
Will Investigate

Steve Hudson, a negro, was shot and
Payne. of the Southern railway, early yes
terday morning at North Birmingham.
According to Payne and another railroad
detective, G. S. Scarlet, the negro Hud-
son and another negro named Aaron Can
trell were about to break into a freight
car, and Hudson seeing the detectives in
the shadows, fired one shot at them. De-
tective Payne answered the shot, killing
the negro. Coroner C. J. Spain was no.
titled and ordered the body removed to
the Maekey Undertaking company.
According to the railroad detectives,
Hudson was a bad Niger" and had
been mixed up in several car robberies.
Cantrell, his partner, who escaped at the
time of the shooting, but was later cap
tured by Officers Cartwright, Brown and
Sergeant Cole, is another onerous char
acter.
Coroner Spain stated last night that
he will fully investigate the shooting.
"All the information We have is that of
the railroad detectives in this affair,
said Mr. Spain. There is always another
side to these negro killings, and / pro-
pose to investigate it. The pistol which
the special officers of the railroad al
legged the negro Hudson shot at them was
taken away by the officers, which should
not have been done. This killing may
have resulted from an act of self de-
Tense on the part of the railroad officers.

CRISIS REACHED IN THE RATE
SITUATION IN BIRMINGHAM

A crisis has been reached in the rate
situation in Birmingham.
Exactly what has occurred. what is &C.
curing and what viii occur is not known.
Nothing has been given out after pro
lonsed meeting of the railroad and trans
potration commit &c Of the Chamber of
Commerce yesterday there was still MOTH
ing to be made public, it was stated. NJ.
p. Northington is chairman and presided
at the committee ..leeting yesterday.
That there was a spirited discussion of
the alleged discrimination against 8ir-
mingham in freight rates and that it ha 5
been realized by the Chamber of Cum
merce officials that something must be
done and be done quick if many factories
and manufacturing plants are t. be infiu
enced, not to move to other cities where
freight rates are mose favora ole. is gen-
orally reported as the true condition of
affairs.
The report which Secretary w. c. RAT
cliffe and ]. +. Slater of the freight bu-
reau of the Merchants and Manufactur
ers association were instructed to pre-
pare some time ago and which was TO
contain data on the alleged discrimina..
tions was presented to the committee.
None of the features of the report were
made public.
Besides this spirited discussion by
members of the committee and President
w. P. G. Harding took place in reference
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-05-22

to some Immediate action to stop the ex-
odus of manufacturers . and merchants
from Birmingham on account of dscrim-
inatory freight rates The cases of the
Birmingham Metal Products company,
Goodall, Brown & Co., and other 9 N
Germs were mentioned. Particulars of the
discussion were withheld, but it is known
that several firms are considering moving
unless freight rates are changed soon.
1t is stated that tne Birmingham peo
pie and the Chamber of Commerce are
not particularly fighting for a reduction
in Birmingham rates. What they want
is no discriminate and if the railroads
cannot lower Birmingham rates then they
want them to increase rates to surround
ing towns such as Nashville, Memphis
Chattanooga, Atlanta, Montgomery and
others similarly located and situated.
The committee will make a report to the
directors meeting Friday afternoon, and
it is believed that at that time the de-
tails of the rate fight will be made public
The recommendations which the commit
tee will make Friday is far the cp6l-
mittee can go without further authority
from the board of directors and action by
the board is now being awaited as the
next step.
1t is reported that many unquestionable
evidences of determinations have been
compiled by the committee and that other
data clinches the argument that dscrimi
nation against Birmingham as compared
with surrounding cities does exist in
freight rates.

GANN AGAIN HEADS
LABOR FEDERATION
Convention Adjourns to
Meet Next Year in Mobile
SOME HEATED DEBATE
Action of Federation in Selma Will
Ultimately Result in Good to
Union Labor Throughout
the State

Selma, May H.-(Special.) 1.-The thir-
teenth annual convention of the Alabama
State Federation of Labor came to close
this afternoon and the majority of dele
gates left for their homes on the late
afternoon trains.
The convention has been most note
worthy one and the action of the fed
GRAFTON while in convention in Selma will
ultimately result in good to union labor
throughout the state during coming years.
The officers of the federation were also
well pleased at the large number of dele
gates from all parts of the state who
came to Selma to attend the sessions of
the convention and to take part in them.
When the session of the convention was
called to order in the auditorium of the
Young Mems Christian association this
morning at . o'clock most of the dele
gates were on the floor. The session was
devoted to routine work an1 little of
interest transpired other than such rather
| heated debates which occurred upon the
convention floor. These debates and dis
cussions among the delegates followed
| the reading of the report of The commit
| tee on rules and resolutions. On some of
the resolutions there were rather warm
discussions, though they were not of a
personal nature, and in them each dele
gate voiced what he believed to be best
| for the cause of organized labor.
| Before the election of officers Mobile
was selected a the next meeting place
of the federation, and it is expected the
| convention to be held in that city next
| year will be attended by a larger num-
| ber of delegates than attended the Selma
| meeting.
| In spite of the fact that there were
| three candidates for the presidency OF
| the federation, Robert F. Gam WAS
chosen for that office again. which will
make his fourth term as executive head
| of the federation.
| The various officers elected for the en-
| suing term were as follows: Robert r.
| Gam. Admission. president; J. r. W ood,
| Birmingham. first vice president. NJ f.
| Bargeneir, Montgomery second vice pres
| ident; ]. B. Cason, Bessemer third vice

Judge A. O. Lane ard James Bowror
were advised that The builders of .hi.
city, against whom strike was initiated
would give their hnal answer to a sug-
gested arbitration this morning at il
o clock That an amicable agreement viii
be the outcome of the LegotiatIons started
by the two public spirited citizens is still
the opinion entertained by those in touch
with the sentiment of both sides to the
strike.
The builders held an extended meeting
yesterday afternoon at which the strike
In all its phases was discussed. The
builders were extremely reticent about
the meeting and preferred not to make any
statements whateVe. ia relation to their
meeting. The only statement given came
through Judge Lane, who said that The
message sent to hila was tha. the build
ers could not agree dt the conference yes
terday as TO what should be done ard
consequently adjourned to meet again this
morning at their headquarters. The gen
eral and prevailing opinion is that some
of the progressives among the builders
will convince their associates that arni-
tration is fair method of settling dis
putes and that accordingly the sugges-
tion of Judge Lane and Mr.. Bowron
should be agreed to.
Judge Lane said LAST night that he was
unwilling at this time to make any posi-
tive statement, bat that he sincerely
hoped that the builaers would agree 10
arbitration and in this way settle the very
regrettable situation that faces the dis
trict. Judge Lane sad if the strike was
called off coupled with the announcement
about Fairfield that this district would
spring forward as If horn anew
The striking carpenters and their friends
met last night at rne Bijou, at which the
strike was discussed They went oN cr
the questions at issue thoroughly Ths
striking carpenters IN sympathy with
whom all other allied trades quit work,
are willing to accept the suggestion of
Judge Lane and MIR. Bowron and arbi-
trate
