BIG REDUCTION
IN SHOP FORCE

Roanoke, Va, Oct. 12.-Notice Of
a 20 per cent reduction in the shop
forces on the Norfolk & Western
railway system beginning with la
borers and helpers, effective Octo-
Der 16, have been posted in the COM
pany's shops, it was learned here to-
day. Though not officially stated, it
is understood the reductions will
eventually reach mechanics.
N. D. Maher, president of the
road, tonight announced that the re-
duction in the working forces would
be gradual and that proper notice
will be given in every case" He add
ed that it is not contemplated to
make any "big reduction" and that
wherever retrenchment is made it
will be Carefully studied out be-
forehand, so as not to impair the
roads efficiency"
1t was learned today that in a
number of departments minor re-
ductions already have been made.
According to an official, officers of
departments have been instructed
to "give careful study to their or
ganization with view to effecting
all economies possible" These in
structions, it is said, apply , to a
clerical as well as mechanical
branches of the company. The road
employs total of about $4,000 per-
sons.
The reductions are prompted by
heavy operating expenses, an off,
cial said. He pointed out that the
road spent approximately s1.16 for
every dollar earned and that the

President of Pacific Rolling Mill
Company Expires After Brief
Illness-Striking Career
At End.
(San Francisco Chronicle)

Patrick Noble, president Of ths
Pacific Rolling Mill Company, dice
early Saturday mornig in Stanford
Hospital, where he had been unde1
treatment three weeks. He was Il
wears old. The funeral services will
be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon
at the Church of St. John the Evan
geIst and interment will be in Sar
Mateo County.
A penniless boy, carrying letter
of commentator from a business
man in New York, Patrick Noble
came to San Francisco via Cape
Horn when 19 years old, just as the
Pacific Rolling Mill Company was
being formed. He presented the let
ter to w. C. Ralston, who was num-
bered with D. o. Mills, William AL
word, Governor Leland Stanford
James Flood and Senator Fair
among the stockholders. Thus he
gained a start as clerk in the con,
cern of which he was destined to
rise to the managership, and, follow
ing the company's reorganization in
1898, to the presidency. Noble be-
came a power in business. About
1893 he furnished the steel for the
Mills building, and he was connect.
ed with the early development of the
cable roads. In 1889 and 1890 he
served as Supervisor.
He was interested in many chari'
table causes, served for many years
as president of the Humane Society
and was a member of the Bohemian
and Transportation clubs.
Noble was born in 1s4s at Able
. vile, S. c., was a member of the
Charleston College class of '6s
and fought with the Confederate
army from January to July, 1865
when 16 years old. He leaves wild

grandchildren. The son is Vice-Pres
ident Edward B. Noble of the Paci
fic Rolling Mill Company, who live:

WARNING TO GROWERS
OF SWEET POTATOES

Clemson College, Oct. 12.-Sweet
potatoes should be dug before frost
or continued cold weather approach
ing frost. The sweet potato is a
tropical plant and both vines and
roots may be damaged by tempera-
ture above the frost point, warns the
Extension Service horticulturists.
The earliest date of the first kill
ing frost in the Piedmont section is
October 23rd, Sandhill section Nov
ember 1st, Coastal section, Novem-
. Der 9th.
The prevalent idea that the vines
must be frosted before the pota-
toes are dug is wrong and the prac-
tice dangerous. 1t is unsafe to wait
later than the above dates to gather
potatoes. Many growers who waited
until frost last year lost their entire
crops, regardless of the kind of stor-
age facilities.
Of the two evils, immaturity and
frost injury, the former is least in
furious, as the immature potatoes
can be kept, while frost-bitten roots
can not be kept under any condition.
Vines should not be removed ex-
cept from potatoes to be dug the
same day. Experiments and observa-
tions indicate that potatoes so treat
ed are hard to cure. However, if
frost kills the vines before potatoes
can be dug, clip the main stem at
base of plant before thawing takes
place.
The house should be filled within
two or three days, and curing should
begin on the first day and continue
ten to fourteen days depending up.
on weather conditions.
There is more danger resulting
from underwriting than over-curing
the latter being indicated by the ap-
pearance of long sprouts condition
which is undesirable but more safe
than the absence of all sprouts.

Sure OF Conspiracy

While questions of masters al
ways have brought denials officials
here were declared to be confident
of the existenc of such a conspiracy
sine the pay reduction has been
made without protest from the sea-
men.
A case of record in the bureau was
said to show that foreign seamen on
one ship had smuggled through ap-
proximately 800 quarts of Scotch
whiskey, purchased abroad for
about 81 a quart and sold here at
more than $40 quart.
Officials declared they were handi-
capped by lack of men in both the
customs service and enforcement
corps with the large number Of for
eign ships entering American ports.
Quarantine of icers, it was said,
had been unable to make the
searches of ships necessary to catch
all smuggled liquor because of the
time limitation and have admitted to
treasury Officials that they were
powerless to check the growing traf-
fic.
! Assistant Secretary House, head
of both the customs service and the
bureau of internal revenue said two
months ago that "it would take an
army" of agents to patrol the shore
lines and defeat smugglers whose
methods were declared to require
the highest grade of detective work
even at that time. The present dis
closures were believed to indicate
such increasing boldness as to re-
quire more drastic legal action.
