Charleston Fertilizer Case Before I.

Washington, Oct. 6.--Argument
will be heard by the Interstate Com
merce Commission here November 1
on the complaint of the freight ad-
justTic.t steering committee of Char
lesion, against the A. c. L. and other
railroads, which are alleged to have
published unreasonable high and dis
criminatOry rates on fertilizer from
Charleston and vicinity to points i'm
North Carolina, as compared with
rates from Wilmington to the same
points in North Carolina.
This is one of the cases recently
mentioned in this correspondence as
involving such far-reaching questions
of the relations between intrasta-e
and interstate rates as TO have ar
rested the very lively attention of the
commission.

A combined military and frontier
parade will take place at 1890
show day, prior to the performances

An interesting feature of the COM

charge of an army officer, where en-
listments will be received for service

ELEVATOR FALLS; TWO HURT.
Each Man Suffers Fracture of Both
Legs When Hoist Cable Breaks.

Legs Wncn Hoist Cable Breaks.
Columbiay Oct. 1.-Two employees of
the CRANKY cotton mill were serious
ly injured, each having both legs brok-
en-. yesterday morning, when the cable
of a freight elevator broke. They are
in the Baptist hospital and 1t is fear
ed that E. N. Johnson, operator of
the elevator, may have internal in
juries. John Benton. section man in
the spool room. who was passenger,
broke his fall by swinging to the top
Of the car. Mr.. JOhnson's legs were
fractured in several places.
The elevator was going up and fell
back two and one-half stories as a re-
suit Of the break in the cable. 1t
was the crush at the bottom that
caused the injuries. The car was
loaded with rolls of cotton being
carried to an Upper floor.
Mr.. Johnson is about SO years of
age and Mr.. Benton is about 26 years
of age.
An official Of the mill said yester-
day that employees were instructed
not to use the freight elevator for
passenger service.
Both men were conscious yesterday
afternoon.

Was Vessel of Size.

The Franconia, which was being
used as British transport, according
to admiralty announcement, was
vessel of 1880 tons gross, and was
built in 1910. Her maiden voyage
was between Liverpool and Boston
in February. 1911. The Franconia
was 625 feet long, seventy-two feet
wide and displaced $4,000 tons. When
she was built she was considered one
of the most comfortable steamers of
the Cunard line. The vessel was
ntokenamed the Bath Ship" inas-
much as she had more bathrooms and
showers than the Mauretania, this
equipment being installed for the BEN
eft Of passengers bound for long
cruise to the Mediterranean. The
steerage Of the Franconia was con-
sidered the best appointed of any
steamer carrying third-class passeng-
ers. The last previous report Of the
Franconia in June. 1915. announced
that she had been chartered to car
ry British troops to the Dardanelles.

ed, in cooperation with the Unitei
States war department, and enlisting
the services of large number Of
soldiers from the regular army, who
have been given a furlough for the
purpose. Undoubtedly, the purpose
of the government in loaning these
boys in khaki for exhibition pur-
poses is to arouse interest in the army
and to create in the minds of the pub
lie realization of the needs of an
adequate defensive force to guard the
republic against aggression after the
close Of the great European war. This,
however, does not detract from the
spectacular realism of the display,
which is described as the most exhila-
rating military spectacle ever seen in
the United States.
Preparedness is evidently an an,-
bilious display Of military effective
ness as we'll as an illustration of the
need of it. Every branch of the Scr
