Nashville. Tenn. Sept. 4o.--From
every side OF the world prayers will be
offered In behalf of the Baptist sew
enty million campaign throughout the
twcnty-four hours Of next Wednes-
FAY, September "A, which has been
designated as day OF special sup
plic1tlon and practical fasting in the
interest of the various interest fos-
tered by The campaign.
In Italy. Bohemia and other cour-
tries where missionaries OF tho South
ern Baptist convention are stationed
and where native Christians are CO.
operating, the prayer chain will be
formed before the Baptist OF America
have awakened for the day.

Baptists assembling for sunrise pray
er services in many OF the churches,
with The more than three million white
Baptist in the South being given a
special charge to occupy the entire
day and portion OF the night In
prayer In their houses OF worship.

their recent session At Newark, n. j.,
agreed to cooperate in this prayer

cations, also, for the $4,000 900 cam

ious interests of their own work and
oasly with the seventy-five million
campaign Many Baptists of the
North and OF Canada will also observe
the day in Prayer that success may
crow. the efforts OF their brethren
IN the South.
1t is the hope of the leaders of the
campaign that where. II is possible
Baptists spend the entire day in pray
er, programs having been arranged
so as to have different persons in
charge of the services at different
periods during the day; though where
1t is i'm possible for the entire day to
be spent AT the church it is urged that
as much time be spent there as pos
sihle and that the spirit OF prayer
and conservation characterize Bap-
lists everywhere that day, wherever
they may be.
And before the Baptists of North
America including those Of Panama
Cuba and Mexico. and those ~ South

There appears TO be moro trouble In

Unless the American Locomtive
Works revokes the orders to the Rich

chinists from two cents to twenty cents
per hour under the scale fixed by the
agreement, It Is believed that a ma
ton wide strike of the machintsts in

Of Richmond lodge No. 10, of the In
9ternationaI Association OF Machinists,
went to Warrington last Thursday to
discuss the matter with the Grand

day night to the lodge that the Grand
Lodge assured the men OF the support
OF the international organ ization to

ION Friday Business Agent Robin
son received long letter from Pres.-

work under protest for a few days In
order that he could take the matter up
with the New York headquarters of
the American Locomotive Works. 1t
is also believed that this slight delay
was requested In order to perfect plans
for a complete t!e-up of the plants in
various cities at the same time in case
an Immediate adjustment is not
reached.
This is the first case In Virginia, il
Is believer, where the employers have
tried to lower the wages of the metal

naachinists will fght to the limit II
is said that the company is advancing
the argument that it desires to stand
ardiZa the rates and make the Rich

the cost of living is much higher in
Richmond than in Schenectady. The
seriousness OF the matter may be
gagged by the fact that international
