GENERAL ASSEMBLY WILL NOT
ADJOURN FOR SEVERAL DAYS
Free Conference Committees on Ap-
preparation and Prohibition Bills
Are Holding the Legislature.

At present there seems to be small
prospect of the general assembly ad-
Journing until the middle of the week.
The free conference committee on
the prohibition bill, because of the
absence of one of it's members
Jesse Boyd of Spartanburg, who is
at his home on matter or urgent
personal business, will not meet un-
Til this afternoon, and the conferees
on the appropriation measure have
not mtlmated when they expect to
make their report. These two COM
mittees are what it tying the gen.
eral assembly up.
Oscar K. Mauldin of Greenville, a
house member of the prohibition free
conference committee, announced this
afternoon that the body would give
careful consideration to the entire
question of prohibition, and there was
small prospects of report from it
until next Wednesday,. The possibility
of either of the two branches of the
general assembly thoroughly debating
the report of the committee, what
ever it is, become more and more ap-
parent. 1t also is we'll within the
range of possibilities that the report
will be rejected by one of the houses

the liquor situation will remain un-
changed, unless Governor Manning

floor of the house that he will not ap-

District Agent in Farm Demonstra-
tion Work, and Mr.. E. J. Browne.

A number of patrons of the schools
turned out to hear the talks made
by the visitors.
Miss Richardson talked of the cam
nlng, bread, and poultry club work.
MIR. Sem outlined the workings of
the corn and MIG clubs, laying special
stress upon the educational seatures
OF the club work. Mr.. McFaddin
talked on diversified agriculture rela-
tive to the coming of the boil weevil.
MIR. Browne, in his talk, called atten-
tlon to the law which requires agri-
culture to be taught in the public
schools. He also stressed the i'm
portance of cooperation of the school
teachers, trustees and patrons with
the home and farm demonstration
forces.
The people of each place visited
showed that they were heartily in
sympathy with the work being under
taken by the demonstration forces.
These meetings will continue until
every school in the county has been
visited, giving every boy and girl a
chance to enroll in the clubs which
are now being organized by Miss

several hundred women from the ten

screaming: "We want bread" They
came to place their plight before
Mayor John P. Mitchell. Many car

steps and tried to push their way into
the building. Policemen on guard
shut the gates, and from the base

More Territory Freed from Ticl
Quarantine.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 19.-The
Federal tick quarantine will be raised
on March l from four counties in
North and South Carolina A total
OF 3,446 square miles is affected by
this order. The counties to be freed
are Duplin and Pender in North Car
DINA and Clarendon and Orangeburg
in South Carolina.
These are the first areas to be re-
leased from quarantine in 1917. More
imam AZ per cent of the territory
originally infested with the tick has
now been freed from the pest and re,
leased from quarantine. Active work
IS planned for this y.ar in every
State in which the tich exists, and
very considerable reductions in the
quarantined area are expected in the
course of the year.

Mayors coming. eve are starving" :"
Mrs. Harris told the Mayors body
guard. "We demand hely from the
Mayor. We will not be responsible
for what happens if we don't get it,"
The leaders were told that the
mayor would not be at his office to-
day, but would arrange meeting
later.
Several Arrests.
"Sweet Marie" Cane, one of Mrs.
Harris companions, addressed the
women fro mthe city hall steps, and
was arrested, charged with disorderly
conduct.
When the police took her from the
city hall station for arraignment in
court, group of women attempted
to rescue her, but were fought off
and guard was thrown around city
hall.
The women remaining near the
spot continued to shout, eve are
starving" until mounted police scat
tered them.
Meanwhile, mob of women gath
cred around produce market on the
East Side and began to overturn push
carts. Three of them were arrested.
The situation resulted from an un-
precedented jump in the price of sta
pies, particularly potatoes and onions,
variously ascribcd to short crops,
heavy demand, speculation and rail
way congestion.
The Indignation of housewives in
lower East Side of Manhattan and the
Williamsburg and Brownsville dis
tricts of Brooklyn, overfowed when
the produce peddlers quoted potatoes
from to cents a pound and onions
from Is to 18 cents. The police esti-
mated that at least 200 women took
part in the riot in Brownsville. Push
carts were overturned and set afre
and vegetables were doused with
kerosene oil. There were similar
scenes elsewhere and the police had
their hands full disprsing the angry
women.
Will Appeal to Mayor.
In Manhattan the push cart men
met the situation by calling a mass
meeting last night. They explained
to their customers that onions were
costing them as high as SIS bag and
potatoes $40 barral. The crowd
was kept at high pitch of excite
ment by spectators who complained
that they were unable to buy enough
food at the present prices to give
their families proper nourishment.
The meeting appointed committee
to call on Mayor Mitchell today and
demand that he take drastic action.
Commissioner Hartigan, in his let
ter to the food authorities Of the diff
ferent States, asked what steps they
were taking to organize producers
