Your assumption" Mr.. Fiskc
wrote. that in seeking n conference
with the labor represe natives, the
most important element in the
present problem, we were pretend
Ing TO represent you on your board,
was quite unwarranted. We very
frankly put our real position before
these organizations and the public.
We think theh present truculent at
titude OF some railroad administra-
tions towards the operatives and
the unions a great mistake. which
may lead TO disaster. and that it is
time that all concerned in the
properties should show some concil-
iatory disposition at least, to the
extent Of endeavoring to get the
point of view of labor and 10 seek
some method Of negotiation to end

DIVER NEEDED TO
IDENTIFY HULL OF
SUNKEN SCHOONER

Jacksonville. Nov. 1.-The services
of a diver probably will be necessary
to identify the hull of three masted
schooner, towed. bottom upward, to
St. Johns Bar yesterday by the coast
guard cutter Yamacraw, it was said
today in marine circles
The derelict was first reported Oc-
tober 20 by the steamship Roanoke
in a position many miles east of the
lower coast of Florida and the va
macraw, sent to destroy it, picked it
up some distance from where it was
discovered, the Gulf stream appar-
entity having carried it northeast. The
bottom of the schooner is newly
painted red and the hull apparently
was in such good condition that Capt.
German, of the Yamacraw. towed it
to the bar rather than destroy it.

Loper Of Fall River, declared today
in an address at the opening session
Of the fall meeting of the National
Association of Cotton Manufacturers
Few new textile mills had been erect
ed in New England in recent years,
he said, because legislation and other
factors which resulted in shorter
hours of labor and higher wages,
made it more profitable to build in
other sections.

SPECIAL COURT
FORDOOLY RIOT
Judge Cover Calls erm
To Open June

VIENNA, May 26.-Judge 0. T.
Cover has called special term of
Superior court in this county for the
purpose of trying twenty-four ne
groes, charged with murder, in con-
nection with the racial clash at Byron
vile last week resulting in the death
of one white man, one negro and
wounding four other blacks.
The court set the date of June 6
for the conYening Of the special
term, at which time the grand jury
will investigate the case.
The trouble, which resulted in
fierce fighting between a deputized
posse headed by Sheriff Vinson and
gang of negroes barricaded in a
house with Fate Chapman as leader,
grew out Of an effort on the part
of the town marshal Of Byromville
to collect taxes from Fate Chapman.
The officer and the negro had a
fight which resulted in the wound
ing of the negro. The officer left
the Negroes premises and that night,
it is alleged, Chapman summoned
all of the blacks residing in the negro
district of Byromville to his aid, with
purpose in view of Staying the town
marshal and shooting up the town.
Shortly before midnight heavy fir
ing was heard in the vicinity of Chap |
mans home. The sheriff was sum
moned and he deputized a posse in
which young L. C. Davis, who was on
his way to Fort Valley to pack peach
es, was a member. 1t was found |
that the negroes had barricaded- |
themselves in Chapman's home and
after a hot fight in which all sorts
of firearms were used, excepting ma
chine guns and cannons, the sher
if affected surrender by threaten
ing to burn down the house.
Davis was shot down when heI
rushed the house and had gained en-
trance into the room the negroes
were firing from. He fell with a
load of buckshot in his thigh which
almost severed his leg. He died the
following day in a hospital in Cor
dele. ........
The negroes were taken into Gus
tody and brought to this city and
placed in Jail. Efforts have been
made bail them out, but bond has
been refused.
