spiracy to commit peonage. The jury

postal laws.
It was reported this afternoon

spiracy sets out that they confeder-
ated and combined together to hold

SHIPPING STRIKE MAY
SOON BE ADJUSTED
PROSPECTS FOR SETTLEMENT
MUCH BRIGHTER. DAVIS
LENDING HAND SECRETARY
OF LABOR HOLDS CONFER,
ENcES WITH CHAIRMAN
BENSON AND MEN.

Washington, May 5.-Prospects
of settlement Of the wage contro-
versy which threatens a tie up Of
American shipping appeared consid-
erably brighter as result Of
joint conference of Chairman Ben
son, of the shipping board and rep
resentatives of the marine engineers
with Secretary Davis. The discus
sion which was the first held with.
more than one party to the contro-
versy present with the secretary
since last week, was adjourned at
late hour to be resumed tomorrow.
Although ship owners were not
present sonight they were kept in
formed Of developments by tele-
phone and it was said would be
similarly kept acquainted tomorrow
with the proceedings if they had no
representative here. All parties were
silent as to the progress Of the nego-
tiations but as they emerged from
the labor lsecretary's Office were
smiling. -
Th first intimation that all hope
of concilation had not gone came
late today when representatives Of
the marine engineers went to the
department of labor and asked for
conference with the secretary. They
indicated that after several hours
discussion they had reached de-
cision as to just how far they could
60 in reaching an agreement.
Secretary Davis postponed the
conference for an hour while he
went to the White House and dis
cussed the situation and then resum-
ed the discussion with the men. Con-
cerning his talk with President Hard
ing, he said only that they had had
"a delightful As minutes"
Subsequently Chairman Benson of
the shipping board appeared at the
department and was cfoseted alone
for an hour with the secretary and
then the men were called in for the
joint meeting.
Secretary Hoover took no part in
the negotiations but said today that
progress was being made toward a
settlement. At the same time ship
ping board officials said. they were
standing firm in their determination
to maintain the Is per cent reduc-
tion in wages recently announced.
In discussing conditions Chairman
Benson said the. board was investi-
eating reports that some of its op-
orators had signed men at the old
wage scale, adding that if found to
be true prompt action would be TAX
en- to withdraw government ships
from their control. Shipping move

WAGE REDUCTIONS =
WILL MOT ANSWER
RAILROAD UNIONS BEFORE La
BOR BOARD. HEADS OF FOUR
BIG BRoTHERlsooDs DE-
CLARE THAT STANDARD OF
LIVING is AT sTAKE-FIGHT
AGAINST CUTS.

Chicago, May 5:-Wage reduc'
tions will not solve the nations
transportation problems, representa-,
tives of the big four brotherhood
declared before the United States
railroad labor board tonight in their
fight against proposed cuts in the
payroll of train service men on II
railroads.
Labor was the most available
thing to pounce upon when re-
trenchment was necessary, declared
L.. E. Sheppard, head Of the conduc-
tors, but while the employees were
sympathetic, he said, they "were
not Abrahams and have no Isaac to
sacrifice"
Warren S. Stone, president of
the engineers, in pleading the case
of his brotherhood, declared his
greatest motive was to give the pub
lie good service and the employees a
living wage. He also said that cut
ting wages was not the solution of
the railroad problem. . =.
}: Mr.. Sheppard opened the big four
presentation with an arraignment
of the transportation act, in which
he asserted that it had mot been a
panacea, but crown of thorns,
which the railroads are now pressing
to the brow Of labor" If labor must
suffer, he said, the employees de-
mand that the public be given the
benefit. a..
He declared that the law had in
tended the labor board as safety
valve, and that it should T.. be stam-
peded by public clamor. There had
been some slight decrease in living
costs, he said, but these had been
more than offset by other advanced
prices of necessities.
>"rhere is something more funda'
mental in this question than a re-
duction of wages" Mr.. Stone said ir
his statement. "The question before
you gentlemen involves the welfare
! of our country; it will decide wheth'
er a few bondholders shall get divi
dends, or whether millions of work.
ing men shall have. an American
standard of living. Foreign labor
has come into this country and is
herfled together. under conditions
granting hare existence.
"If American labor is to compete
with such labor it means turning
back the clock Of progress 100 years
American railway workers should
have wages that will enable them to
live as American citizens should
live"
w. S. Carter, president of the fire
mems organization, made compari'
sons of the wages Of firemen and OF
blacksmiths in outside metal trades
in the territory of various roads.
The brotherhoods are expected to
complete presentation Of their case
tomorrow evening.
Summing up the entire testimony
of the railway unions affidavits
with the American Federation of
Labor, B. M. Jewell, head Of the Or
ganization, declared there was no
justification for reduction of rail
way workers wages and moved that
the wage reduction case before the
railroad labor board be dismissed.

The cadet corp Of the Bailey Mill.
tary Institute came to Abbeville
Thursday and will camp on the Gary
lot on Magazine street for several
days. The visitors came at the invi-
tation of the City Council and Of the
Chamber of Commerce and they are
being made welcome by the town in
general and the young ladies in par
ticular.
The cadet corp is made up Of FIVE
companies, making two hundred and
sixty-fve cadets. The young men are
accompanied by Col. Bailey and
Majors Moore, Lyon, Porter, Cain,
Benson, and Captains Normand, H.
Coleman, Cannon, and Carl Cole
man and Lieutenant Seamore.
The object of the camp in Able
vile is to, give the. boys taste of
army life, to give them practice in
marching and to train them in ad
vance and rear guard work while on
the march.
The cadets made the march Thurs
day of sixteen anda half miles from
Greenwood in six hours and not a
single man fell out of ranks. They
carried light packs, the heavy bag
gage being sent on in advance. On
arrival in Abbeville, tents were
pitched, Company streets were made
and in a very short while the quiet
old street presented warlike ap-
pearance and resounded to the cheer
full voices of two hundred happy,
healthy boys.
The Chamber of Commerce assist
ed by the ladies of the Civic Club
served tea and sandwiches to the
boys as soon as they arrived. Two
hamper baskets of sandwiches and
three tubs of tea, disappeared before
the onslaughts of the cadets after
Tie manner of the old SNOWFALL in a
warm region, we have all heard so
much about but nobody has seen.
Roy Cam was on hand with a
Coca Cola stand and nickels and
dimes changed hands with, lightning
like rapidity: - T.: .,,s;'2; -:
While the boys are in camp, they
will go through all the "stunts" u.s.
ual with a military camp, such as
practice drills, guard mount, walk
ing the post and the big feature of
the day will be Dress Parade which
will take place every afternoon on
the square at six o'clock.
This morning the boys marched up
town and went through their drills
on the square. There were four COM
panies and every side Of the square
got good look at the soldiers. They
presented very fine appearance and
after half hour strenuous drill
ing came to "parade rest" and gave
the usual "yells' for Abbeville.
In the way Of entertainment for the
boys there will be two games of ball.
The first was called this afternoon at
2:30 and is between B. M. I. and
the Abbeville High school. The Sec
ond game will be played immediate
ly after the first and will be between
Greenwood and Abbeville. The cadet
Corp is seeing the games as the
guests of the student body of the
High school.

the help of a committee OF ladies, IS
arranging for dance tonight at
Rosenberg's Hall, which it is hoped
the boys will enjoy. .,
The officers are undecided as to
when the cadets will return to
Greenwood. Coming day late they
feel that it will be a hardship to
make the march on Saturday as
was first planned. They do not like
the idea of return march on Sun
day so it is probable that camp will
not be broken until Monday. Should
the boys stay over Sunday they will
be given much leave and will be
open to invitations to breakfast,
dinner and supper. Should they re-
main over it is hoped the ladies of
the town will open their houses to
the cadets and do something hand
some for them in the way of good
home cooked dinner.
The cadets and their officers are
welcome in Abbeville and it is hoped
they will long remember with pleas
ure their stay in our city.
s. ***
There seems to be all kinds of boys
among the cadets, from the Fatty
Arbuckle type to the Charlie Chap
Inns. The officers are immaculate
and are, genuine officers for they
have their legs all dressed up in
leather leggins. This morning while
drilling the young officers seemed to
have the correct voices and shouted
hep, hep, hep" and enough "humps"
to make one woman remark that she
was glad she had been "born a baby
and a girl baby at that"
= II
One of the most interesting sights
at the camp is the kitchen. A good
size tent is placed on one side of
the lot and two bakers and several
huge pots are used for cooking pur-
poses. There are two chief cooks,
Allen Jennings and Walter Johnson,
and with the assistance of four or
five other men, all colored, were pre-
pairing Thursday night for supper,
ten hams, two hundred pounds of
grits and twenty-five gallons of cof-
fee. The ham was fried inside of
the bakers and was emptied into an
aluminium pan big enough to hold a
good size world.
When asked what would be to-
days dinner, one of the cooks re-
marked, "Oh, probably: pork land
beans" = > ::
/; When a meal is served the boys
form in line and in a tin plate and
camp. cup get their "share" and
move on.
** **
Water has been put on the
grounds and in one place is shower
bath. This is enclosed in sacking and
after the sixteen mile march yester-
day was proving to be one of the
most popular places on the grounds.
Mirrors seemed to be scarce ar
ticles around camp, so when boy
wants to "dude up" he gets a COM
rade to comb his hair and put his
tie at exactly the right angle.
The movies proved a popular re-
sort for the cadets Thursday night.
