$4,000 miners in the central Pennsyl-
vania field to return Immediately. to
their posts they left Ave months ago.
while operators were rushing plans
that will mean production of 100000
tons of coal a year. This activity
followed the signing Of an agreement
last night.
Both sides today heralded the
agreement as victory. The miners
consider 1t q trump because they re-
tain the check-off and are to receive
the same wage scale as that in effect
jubilant because they arranged a dis
trict agreement. a condition which
has been strenously opposed by John
L. Lewis, president Of the United Mine
Workers of America
Treaty Runs to March, 1923.
After rejection by the operators Of
the Cleveland agreement at a meet
ing in Clearfield, the very heart Of the
bituminous district. they consented to
meet the miner representatives here.
Conference began Monday with little
hope of settlement. But n subcom-
mittee composed of seven operators
and seven miner delegates ended the
struggle after a bitter session.
The new treaty provides for the con-
tinuance until March 81: 1923: of the
wage scale in effect when the men
went on strike. All the provisions
Of the old contract, with one excep-
tion, are retained. The rule which
calls for continuance of work for thir-
ty days after the scale committees be-
gn deliberations for new agreement
was abolished. The final settlement
does not indorse the establishment Of
a fact-finding committee suggested at
the Cleveland conference.
Operators announced that the
aerAement stipulates they need not
attend the Cleveland meetings. called
for October and January unless

Two Hundred and Forty, Up to
Present, Have Signed
Pledge Cards.
THESE PROMISE ANNUAL
SUPPORT TO ORGANIZATION
Minimum Amount is One Dollar
a Month, But There is, of
Course, No Limit as to Sum.
A. M. Way is Temporary
Chairman, r. D. Gould, Sec.

Notwithstanding threatening wealth
er last night, a reasonably good num-
Der of representative citizens met in
the Board of Trade rooms tor the pur-
pose of receiving reports of those who
have taken active steps n soliciting
pledges for the support of a Young
Mems Christian Association in Bruins
wick and while $50 of the pledge cards
was the record, it is expected that the
goal $50 or 400, will be reached soon.
Temporary Chairman Albert N.
Way presided at the meeting and
Richard Gould acted as secretary and
many interesting informal t2llIs were
made. all of which were filled with in
teresting and excellent suggestions as
to the quickest way to attain the de-
sired result. 1t was brought out at
the meeting that Brunswick IS the
only city of any size in the state III
which there is no Y. NJ. c. A., and the
fact that such an institution is needed
here was brought out forcibly by a
number
1t was decided that Fred c. Warde.
managing-secretary of the Brunswick
Board of Trade, be made chairman of
the campaign committee and such
help as he will need can be had for
the asking, as many of those interest
ed are only anxious to assist in Sc
curing the required number OF
pledges. Many of those who have
signed cards have agreed on one dol
lar per month but this IS the mini
mum as there is nothing to keep any
one from supporting the organization
by larger sum which, it is expected
many will do.
1t should be remembered that the
Y. NJ. c. A. movement was started by
meeting of the ministers of practi
cally every church in the city and with
the support of these men of the cloth
and active help of the scores who are
willing to assist in every way posi-
Bile, there is every reason to believe
that the required number of pledges
will be secured without much effort
and within a short time.

Sensational Disclosures Expect
ed to be Made to COrOner's
Jury When Called.
SUICIDE THEORY NOT
EVEN CONSIDERED
While No lntimation as to the
Nature of the Clues Obtained
Has Been Given Out, 1t is
Known That Detectives Have
ConVicting Evidence.

1t is now certain that sensational
developments are expected to result
from the investigation of the killing
of Conductor Jenkins, of the Seaboard
Air Line, at Thalmann a week ago
1t is known that several special agents
of that road have been ON the scene
for several days working on num-
Der of clues in connection with the
dastardly murder of the popular con-
ductor.
1t is understood that the detectives
do not, and have not from the first,
given the slightest credence to the
theory that Conductor Jenkins was
killed by his own act, as it is held out
that he had no motive whatever for
selfdestruction. He stood high in the
estimation of the officials of the road,
was happily married and was in good
circumstances financially. He was a
man of strong personality and was un-
iversally popular with all who knew
him. The suicide theory, the detec-
tives believe. was advanced in order
to throw the investigators off the
track of the real perpetrators of the
crime.
While not the remotest intimatiou
ha sheen given out as to the theory
on which the special agents are work
ing, it is stated from an authentic
source that they have tangible clue
and have large volume of evidence
Ito present to the ceroper,s jury when
that inquisitorial body meets again on
the call of the coroner. 1t is also
known that they expect to spring"
sensation before the jury by showing
conclusively that Conductor Jenkins
was shot down deliberately as he was
in the act of boarding the moving
charge.
1t will be recalled that the conduc-
tor was not missed until his train had
gone some distance, and when it back
ed up to Thalmann, the dead body of
Conductor Jenkins was found lying be-
side the track, his lantern burning by
his side. The developments in the
case are expected to be disclosed short
sly with the arrest of one or more ad-
ditional parties besides the two ne
groes who are to be brought to Bruins
wick as soon as legal steps are per-
fected to bring them to the Glynn
county Jail from Jacksonville.
The Seaboard detectives do not in
tend to leave a stone unturned until
the murderers of the popular conduc-
tor are brought to justice, and that
will be very soon, according to re-
liable authority

as the authorities had reason to sus-
pect an attempt on his life. Police
men were actually at the door of his
residence when his assailants appear
ed and opened fire.
The names of the two men arrested
were given as Connolly and Mc-Brien.

j. c. Y. CONVENTION
COMES TO CLOSE
Veterans Were Center of Attrac-
ton at Grand BaII.-Rode in
Automobiles in Parade on Ac-
count of the Heat.
OBy Associated Press.)

Richmond, June 22.-The United
Confederate Veterans brought their
annual convention to close tonight
with a grand ball at which they were
the center of interest and attention
from the sons and daughters gathered
here from all parts of the Southland
The annual parade OF the veterans
this afternoon was followed by the
laying Of the cornerstone of the Mat
thew Maury monument. The thlnneG
ranks of the gray line rode in the pa
rade in automobiles for they were too
feeble to stand the heat in trampling
through the streets.
Through the long aisles made by
throngs of a tribute-paying people,
these gray fighters slowly passed as
though they were conquerors instead
of the men who laid down their arms
in defeat.
Along the way buildings. long and
small, mansions and house, were coat
ed with colors that fired the hearts of
the Southland in 81 and '65. 1t was
as if the hand of Time had moved
back and transformed new and
younger Richmond to the historic city
it was more than half century ago.
MELODIES OF THE OLD SOUTH
From the shining horns of four
teen bands flowed the melodies OF the
old South: maryland, My Maryland" :"
Garry Me Back to Old Virginia" :"
"The Suwanee River" THE Old Folks
at Home" and many others; and then,
as if to light the spirit of the parad-
ers and the throngs that watched
them to a white glow, a band here and
there would blare forth with the be-
loved battle song-"Dixie."
Every veteran who came to Rich;
mond was seated in motor vehicles
1t was estimated that 500 cars carried
the old soldiers in the procession,
The escort of honor for the veter-
ans were men who fought in 49, and
those younger soldiers who crossed
the seas to battle with the Germans.
Sturdy and straight, they marched
afoot. and In their faces was the light
they had caught from song and story
handed down from those heroes who
wore the grey of the Confederacy.
AS the procession was passing out
Monument avenue, on which stand the
famous statues of Lee, Jackson, Stu
art and Davis, the motor vehicles in
which the veterans rode paused, as il
in respect to the great military lead
ers. The old soldiers gazed up at the
| heroic bronze figures of their beloved
chieftains who had led them in battle
and on their faces were the looks O.
men unconquered in spirit, sentimen
and loyalty. Giants against the sky
| breasting the storms of the years
these bronze figures represented tt
the soldiers in gray ideals as death
less as Hope.
Then the procession moved on, leav
ing behind the silent forms of bronze
and granite, and the living soldiers
had found the end of another reun
ion.
