rMpomrANr rkAFFTC MEETING,

At the request of the North Caro-
lima Corporation Commission very
important conference was held yes
terday in Raleigh in regards to the
freight rate situation in North Caro-
lima. Besides the entire commission
there was present; Mr.. Graham,
Trafic- Manager, r. j. Reynolds To-
bacco Co., Mr.. Ryan, T. NJ. Southern
Furniture Association, M. r. Bea-
man, Raleigh Chamber of Commerce,
w. S. Creighton, Charlotte Chamber
of Commerce, Col Albert Cox, Mr..
Porter, T. NJ. N. c. Wholesale Grocers
Association and H. Y. Scott of the
Wilson Chamber of Commerce.
1t was developed at this meeting
that the carriers in the state have
presented to the Commission ten
ative scale of rates from the east and
west into North Carolina, not for
their approval, but for their consid-
Grafton and the Commission wanted
the opinion of others in regards to
same. After discussion it was the
unanimous opinion Of all present that
nothing would be done one way or
the other until the Interstate Com
merce Commission handed down
their final decision in the North
Carolina case that has been hanging
fire for two years It has been defin-
iteiy learned that the I. c. c. entire
membership will have a conference
next week and pass finally on the
case that means SO much to the state.
1t goes without saying that the gen
tlemen who attended the meeting
will do all in their power to see that
justice is handed out to us. Mr.. M.
r. Beaman of the Raleigh Chamber
Of Commerce went to Washington, D.
G. last night to look out after some
rate matters that affect the state and
was anxious for Mr.. Scott of the
Wilson Chamber of commerce to ac-
company him, but on account of the
inability of the Chamber to collect
membership dues there was no funds
to send him.

Yesterday was a day OF hard luck
over the entire country and particu-

Virginia League a blow. No games
were played except between Rocky
Mount and Norfolk, Rocky Mount
winning 2 to /. At Wilson the wealth
er was little above the freezing point,
and as a result the game was called
on. Today the regular game will
take place at four o'clock If the
weather permits and tomorrow a
double bill will be played with Suf-
folk the game beginning at 2:3O P.
M
The daily times., 1921-05-06

Ordinarily a double header is not
played on the first round but since
the Wilson team and the Suffolk
aggregation meet for six games in a
row the next round it was decided
best to have the double bill now to
prevent a possible accumulation of
games during the next round. Johnny
Castle the genial temporary manager
of the Cats readily agreed to this and
so tomorrow the fan will have a
chance to get double moneys worth
for single admission. a~~rtsr
The management desires to an
nounce that rain checks for yester-
days game will be good either today
or tomorrow.

JOHN BURROUGHS DEAD
Noted Nature Writer Dies On
Way to Celebrate 81 Birthday.
Famed for His Highly Developed
Power of Observation Of Animals
and Flowers.

Utica, N. Y.-John Burroughs,
famous naturalist, died on a New York
Central train near Kingsville; Ohio, on
his way home from California. He had
been very ill for six weeks with an
abscess on the chest and heart and
with kidney complications.
He was so eager to get home that
the long journey was undertaken with
the hope that he could survive. The
end came suddenly, a few minutes
after he had asked:
"How ear home are we?"
His physician, DR.. Clara Barrus, his
granddaughter Urusula Burroughs and
the Misses Eleanor and Harriet Bur.
roughs accompanied him on the jour.
ney.
Burroughs, it was said, had hoped to
reach home before April 3 to celebrate
his Saith birthday with old friends. His
SD was celebrated with a great gath.
ering which included his particular
friends, Henry Ford, II. S. Firestone
and Thomas A. Edison.
The event was to have taken place
at his home in Floral Park, near POUCH.
keepsie.
Burroughs was the venerable dean
of nature writer's in the United States
Through a score of books he shared
with countless readers his lifelong init
macy with birds, bees, flowers and the
whole out of doors. His highly devel
oped power of observation and the
charm of his interpretations were the
marvel of his critics.
His flowing white beard, his kindly
mein, his whole habit of life, and his
literary style were rather reminiscent
of that famous New England schQo.
of essayists a generation or two before
him.
