BODIES TIED TO AUTOS AND
DRAGGED THROUGH JACK
soNVILLE STREETS.

broke into the county jail short after
midnight, took therefrom two gtoes
held for the murder recently OF Geo.
Dubcse, carried them in automobiles
into the outskirts OF the city, riddled
them with bullets, put ropes around
their necks and dragged them through
the city streets, dropping one of the
bodies in front of one of the leading
hotels. Sheriff's deputies and police
are searching for the other body.
The sheriff learned early in the
night that there might be an attempt
to lynch negro held in Jail on the
charge of attacking a little white girl,
so on advice of Judge Simmons, he
put the negro in an automobile and
sent him to st. Augustine for safe
keeping
Arriving at the Jail, and not finding
this negro, the mob took the other
two and put them to death.

DORSEY MAY ACT ON
M'NAUGHTON CASE WITHIN
NEXT TWO WEEKS
Petition and Letters Received, Urging
Favorable Action on Prison Com
Missions Recommendation.

Atlanta, Sept S.-rhe McNaugntoa
case is coming in for an increasing
amount of attention over the state,
but there is nothing at this end to
indicate when final action will come
on it. On August 26 the prison com
mission unanimously recommended
that tDr. W. j. McNaughton be pa
rolled, and on the 9th the file in the
case went down to the governors of
fee Saturday the governor said he
had not reached the case yet and
probably would not take it up until
he had disposed Of several cases now
being examined by him. How long
that will take is problematical.
Possibly in the next couple of weeks
the McNaughton case may be reached,
possibly it may be put off longer. 1t
is understood, however, that early ac-
ton was anticipated by the prison
commission when it passed on the
case and sent it down to the executive
department.

The following resolution is ex-
planatory, and for the information
of the public and the reason the

was on account of the fact that New
Bern, Kinston, Rocky Mt. and pos
sibly Raleigh desired to enter the
League and since all could not be
taken the matter was left open un.
til Friday to allow further consider
alton.
The following motion was offered

PREc.OENT WIRES
CONGRATULATIONS
GOVERNMENT WILL
NOT VACATE
Injunction Against the Strike
Because the Strike is
Against the Law
STRIKE LONG DRAWN OUT

Washington, D. c., Nov. 5.-The
government cannot accept the pro-
posal of organized labor to vacating
the injunction against the union
and thus end the coal strike. This
was the statement of Assistant At
torney-General Ames, in the absence
of Attorney-General Palmer who
stated that the strike was in vio-
tion of the law and hence he gov
ernment could not recognize infringe
ments of the law
This will mean a long fight in
the coal district, while the withdraw
al of the injunction would have
meant speedy settlement of the
strike probably within the next
4S hours according to the statment
of Edgar Wallace the legislature
representative of the United Mine
workers of America.
Labor leaders here have taken
a hopeful view of the situation un-
til the announcement of the gov
ernment, and Samuel Gompers pres,
ident of the American Federation OF
Labor announced this action ot
the department of Justice would
greatly pro1ong the strike.
Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 5.-Whel
informed of the statement of Judg
Ames, Acting Attorney General
John L. Lewis, president of tn
United Mine Workers of Americ
said that he had nothing to add t.
his statement of last night whic
+, covered the situation.

NEITHER WOOD NOR COAL

Complaints are coming to us there
is neither wood nor coal in town for
sale and since the strike indicates
a shortage of coal for an indetermi-
nate length of time, it would be well
for the city to revive its woodward
which helped to keep the people
warm and if it had not been provid-
ed there would have been much suf-
fering in this city for the past two
winters.
Talking with agents of the rail
roads here regarding the effect To-
cal1y in the seizure of coal intransit,
they state they are under orders to
seize the coal and neither the con-
sumers nor the dealers can secure
any of this coal, though it may be
on the cars consigned either to the
dealer or to the consumer, until ap-
plication has been made for it by the
consumer, the application stating
the necessity for it's use. 1t is cer-
tain that if you have sufficient coal
to keep you from freezing you will
not be able to secure more unless
the strike is either ended or the
mines move coal faster than now
contemplated. For this reason we
trust the city administration will look
after the wants of the people in the
wood line for it does not look good
to US.

|GOMPERS SAYS
INJUNCTION BLUNDER
Says If Withdrawn Believes a
Settlement of Coal Strike
is Possible
MINERS ARE WORRIED

Washington, Nov. Withdraw
al Of the injunction obtained by the
government will open the way for
settlement of the coal strike, Sam
uel Gompers, president OF the
American Federation of Labor, de-
clared in a statement tonight.
Charging that the injunction was
a grave wrong and gross blunder,
Mr.. Gompers said if it were vacated
and miners and operators invited
TO further conference by the Depart
<ment Of Labor. he had "an abiding
faith" that mutually honorable ad-
justment could be negotiated and
Effected whereby the coal strike
can be brought to an end"
Mr.. Gompers statement was is
sued after his return here from New
York and in response to numerous
requests for an expression as to
chances of bringing the strike to a
speedy end.
The statment follows:
Representative of newspapers
have asked me for a statement re-
garding the coal strike and the sit
uation.
'tIn the first instance it should be
known that the demands of the
miners, which upon the surface
: seem so radical and far-reaching
are by no means SO. For several
| years the miners have not-had more
than a half years work-thei1
| working days averaging from one
| hundred and sixty to one hundred
| and eighty days per year, intermit-
tent, by days and by weeks-em,
ployment and then unemployment
The miners simply ask for a regu
lation of the working time so tha
coal production and employmen
may be regular rather than inter
ln-tte1t. If the miners were per
niltted by the operators to work full
time. the supply of coal thus minet
would soon force down the price o
cGa1 ON the market and this the op
Ell ators are determined not to per
NIT. The miners case might bette
he sta,ed by their demanding a
: least five days of six hours work pc
/ week. which is really more than the
are permitted to work at the presen
time. An understanding of thes
81 conditions clearly shows whto ar
: responsible for the present situatio
@ | and the cauSa
J when in 1914 the miners re
:, ceived an increase of twenty cent
3 per ton the operators raised the sci
r ing price five dollars per ton. Sur,
t ly the conditions anc< the standard
of life of the miners have deteriol
: ated by reason of there being n
q practical advance in their wages an
e their earning power, while the CO:
y of living has scared higher an
v higher.
