ART EXHIBIT, A SUCCESS

The Art Exhibit held yesterday
afternoon and evening in the high
school building was a success from
every standpoint. The pictures, many
of which were hand colored prints,
and all of which were reproductions
of famous artists masterpieces were
beautiful. The young ladies of the
high school grades served sandwiches,
ice cream, punch and candy and
their stocks were replenished more
than once. A total of over fifty dol
lars was cleared which money will be
used in purchasing framed pictures
for the schools.

JACK EDMONDS HURT

Jack Edmonds, the young son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Joe F. Edmonds. of
Parker Street, was severely bur+
about 8 o'clock this morning when he
fell from his bicycle striking his
head on the pavement, the accident
happening in front of the residence
of c. E. Williamson, on GreenvilIe
Street.
Someone saw the lad when he fell.
and he was quickly carried into the
home of Mr.. Williamson, where he
lay unconscious for a few minute,
while DR.. Neuffer was being sum-
moned. After the doctor had ex-
amined him, he was taken to the
residence of his father.
When seen sometime after he had
made fuller examination, DR.. Neuf-
er expressed the opinion that there
was no fracture of the skull, and
that Jack was suffering mostly from
conclusion and that this would be
gradually overcome.

Head of Navy
General Board
Answers Sims

Washington, April 15.-Rear Admir-
al Badger, head Of the navy general
board since the death Of Admiral Dew
ey, told the Senate investigating COM
mittee today that he wished to make
complete denial of Rear Admiral
Sims charges that the navy was un-
prepared for war, had no war plans
or policies in April, 1917, and pursued
a vacillating policy for six months af-
ter war was declared.
While conceding that some mistakes
had been made, Admiral Badger de-
clared the navy on the whole was well
prepared and administered. The charge
that the Navy Department had no
plans for war was both unjust and
incorrect" the admiral said.
"We had plans, we'll considered
ones,' he declared. "The trouble is
that the plans and the execution Of
them did not meet with the approval
of the critics.
Despite the adverse criticisms that
have recently been widely circulated
it may confidently be maintained that
the navy met and stood the stress Of a
great war. If success is the test of
any organization then the alleged
shortcomings Of the navy and it's di-
recting heads can be dismissed from
serious consideration

Market Uncertainty
Removed by Increase
In English Discount

London, April 15.-The increase
in the minimum rate discount from
six to seven percent today by the
Bank Of England has removed the
uncertainty which has been hang
ing over the market.
1t was considered bound to come
in view Of the inflated credit po-
Of the vessel and the balance in
cial situation, especially regarding
exchanges, and may possibly stabi-
Lie the Satter. It probably will
not, however, affect the American
exchange. Any further unsettling
of exchange regarding the United
States is not expected until large
bills fall due in the autumn for the
payment Of food and commodities.
One reason for the present move
is to bring the rate in line with
other centers. The action Of the
Bank Of England yesterday in rails
ing the rate Of interest on the
treasury bills to 6 1-2 per cent is
to attract funds from banks to the
Bank Of England On the government
account against maturing short dat
ed Indebtedness, which totals big
figure, and to check fresh borrow

SEARCH FOR BODIES
CONTINUES UNABATE

Search for the nine remaining lost
bodies of the victims of the Harper's
Ferry tragedy continues daily, but
without further success up until this
morning. A block and tackle is be-
ing arranged to raise the flat, which
is at the bottom of the river, with
the hope that some of he bodies may
be found under it. All the bottom
land which was overflowed by the
river has been thoroughly gone
over, for miles down the river, but
without success.
A strange fact comes to light in
reference to the finding of the body
of Miss Lucy Bradshaw, on Bear Is
land. The story is that a man, whose
name was not learned, lives on that
island, and he dreamed of finding
bodies, and the next day went to the
head of the island, where he discover
ed the body of Miss Bradshaw stand
ing upright in the water, where it
had been caught by the fork of an
overhanging branch of tree.
It is also stated that Miss Meschine
wore q valuable diamond ring and a
brooch, the property of her aunt, and
also valuable heirlooms.
It is expected that more of the
bodies will be found very soon, as the
search will continue until they are
recovered.

Alabama Miners
Meet to Consider
A New Agreement

Birmingham, Ala, April 15.-Dele-
gates representing all locals of the
United Mine Workers union in Alaba-
ma, met here today in special conven-
ton, to act upon recent agreement
of the operators by which mines would
be operated through industrial rela-
tions committees with control over
wages, hours and working conditions.
The operators have announced they
would grant the q per cent wage in
crease, recommended by President
Wilson's committee, but they refuse
to recognize the principle Of collective
bargaining.
Thirty thousand coal miners are en-
ployed in this state. Union leaders
early today said the men will insist
upon the right of collective bargain
ing and predicted a strike would be
ordered by the convention.

SENATE DISCUSSES
R. R. LABOR BOARD
Confirmation of Appointments
Today Observation-Disclosures
Are Assembling

Washington, April 15.-There
was another long discussion in the
Senate today as to confirming the
newly appointed members Of the
railroad labor board. The session
was executive and after the discus
sion had continued for more than
an hour there seemed to be some
doubt as 10 whether confirmation
would be bsdteday.
Meantime members Of the board
were assembling in Washington IN
response tor the call sent them yes
terday by the President. The ar.
rivals included J. H. Elliott ana
Horace Baker, two of the three all
road representatives. They called
at the White House and were re-
ferred to Walker D. Hines, head
of the railroad administration.
# is understood that the board Will
sit at the railroad administration
after its organization and that all
of. the facts in connection with the
wage demands which have been
gathered will be made available to
it.
S.:retary Baker had a brief con-
ference with Attorney General Pal
mer today but Department of Jus
tice officials said that the railroad
strike was not discussed.
The Department of Justice today
made public more documents sslz,
ed from I. W. W. agitators and
copies of appeals by that organ1-
cation to the shop-men to "tEl ow
down the labor politicians who.
the appeal said. were now heading
the labor unions.
Appealing to the shopmen direct
", one of the documents said:
"The yardmen and the road work.
ers have blazed the trail and We
must now open our eyes and see
the truth. We, the shopmen, are
dancing with the same skeleton or
starvation that is haunting the
TRANSPORTATION men. Now is the
time for all of us to join the light.
Never before have we ha! the op-
portunity to gain our ends that now
faces U.S."

Report of Committee to Cotton
Association Recommends This
Figure

Montgomery, Ala, April 15.-The
third days session of the American
Cotton Association convention in ses-
sion, here was featured by reports Of
committees and several addresses from
leading figures In the cotton world.
The report of the acreage and price
committee, which is headed by ]. j.
Brown, of Georgia, was made this
morning. The report recommended that
the price be set at a minimum Of 60
cents pound, middling grade. 1t is
claimed that the price Of cotton goods
and the raw product is far out of ratio
as to advantage to the producer Of the
staple.
The committee said it was scarcely
necessary to mention acreage reduc-
tion, because Of the great scarcity Of
labor on the farms, but did urge the
production Of good crops in large
quantities.
The report was adopted unanimous.
ly by the body.

POLICE CALLED OUT
To QUELL STRIKERS
Wagons of Produce Merchants
in New York Westside Mar
ket District Attacked

New York, April 15.-Police reserves
were sent to the Westside market dis
trict today where several hundred
teamsters, chauffeurs and porters had
walked out at a time when New York
was virtually cut off from it's food
supply by rail. Several trucks were
attacked by strike sympathlzers.
The wagons of produce merchants,
sent to transfer the foodstuffs from
the freight yards to the market dis
trict, were attacked and holding ropes
slashed. Men followed trucks carrying
provisions and threatened the drivers.
One horse drawn wagon was attack
ed by SIS men. They followed the wa
gon to it's destination where they we're
dispersed by the police.
One hundred policemen, mounted
and afoot, were stationed in the dis
trict as a precautionary measure. The
teamsters strike affected the transfer
of butter, eggs, cheese and frozen
poultry from freight yards to markets
in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Business
was reported almost at standstill.
In its crusade against profiteering
in the food crisis, intensified by the
teamsters strike, the flying squadron"
of the Deparement Of Justice today
arrested Nicholas J. Eschenbrenner,
general manager of wholesale firm
dealing in Danish butter. He was
accused of violating the Lever act by
making ten cents a pound on a large
lot of butter, his profit totalling over
$4,000.
Police officers commanding the 100
reserves doing strike duty in the egg
and butter market district this after
noon sent a call to headquarters for
200 reinforcements, as reports were
received of more trucks having been
attacked.
