Lithonla to Atlanta
This is the first interference by the
state in the strike and it applies only
I to the situation at Lithonia
Telegrams to that effect were sent
to ill parties interested and It was
announced that a statement would be
issued later Both sides made con
Cessions Train service was resum

Previous to the announcement of a
settlement the indications were that

eights rioting when a negro fireman
was badly beaten at Augtista But be

Ibe police interfered and settled the I
amtler by arresting two white men
In the morning the people of North
Georgia in the strike district had de I
plivered an ultimatum that negro fire i
men should not be allowed to oper

Tbis ultimatum came in tne rorm or I
strongly worded protests rrom neany I

currod tonighL A moving freight
train at Lithonla Ga was attacked
In consequence the race issirt loomed
up more sharply than before
A negro fireman was apparently
tho entire of the trouble and he was
rushed to Atlanta on an engine to
save him from a mob The train was
stoned and then boarded by a mob who
set the brakes and broke It into three
sections
The train in that condition blocked
the main line and the progress of the
mails
The railroad officers declare tonight
that the Incident was tho work of
strike sympathizers
The engine left for Lithonla to
ni Ing a trainload of perishable pro
visions into Atlanta Assurances had
been given that in tho Interest of 10
cnl shippers whose valuable cargoes
were tied up no demonstration would
ho made against hailing these cars to
Atlanta

ment no attempt was made by local
nuthorities to interfere even when
the train was broken up Local offi
cers telephoned to the state authori
ties that the train was stalled but
that there had been no violence
Speedy state or federal intervention
is expected as the situation Js bcllcv
od to he fraught with danger It Is
admitted that either federal or stato
authorities can run the trains and
preserve order but if the railroad In

strongest holds on the Southern peo

shown by an entire community in re

pacity to which they objected The
other sentiment was the determina
tion of employers to stand loyally by
negroes who have rendered them a
long and faithful service
Tonight there was talk or holding
mass meetings at several pjaccs to
voice indignation at the action of the
railroad today in putting negroes on

Street Car Company of

Handicaooed
m iI
Philadelphia May 29 Greatly to I
the surprise of the public this city is
today in the tangle of a street car
strike The order of tho executive
committee of the Carmens union to
strike was issued at an early hour
this morning and went into effect at
lam when the day service began
At 9 n m cars were running on all
but two of the HneS7 but It was ap
parent the company was having diffi
culty in maintaining the regularity of
tho service
Paradoxical as it may seem the
strike was hastened through the ac
tion of the company in raising the
wages of the men one cent an hour
from 21 to 22 conts This was done
about two weeks ago and the Increase
is to go into effect July L Prior to the
announcement of the increase in
wages the Philadelphia Rapid Tran
sit company became the stormcenter
of general protest by abolishing six
foraquarter tickets and adopting a
straight fivecent fare rate This mat
ter came before the state railroad com
mission at Harrjsburg
j The leaders of the union took ad
I vantage of the situation and began
I agitating an increase In wages and
I better conditions Their demands In
il cluded twentyfive cents an hour nine
or ten hours straight work Instead of
splitting up the day privilege of buy
II Ing uniforms In the open market and
the adjustment of minor grievances
I The company having already increas
I ed wages Ignored the unions demand
I The traction company employs ap
proximately G600 motormon and con
ductors and claims that not more

FORTUNE IN SAVING
FLOUR GOLD IN WEST
Salt Lake City May 2SThe man
lvesttl BQ 11 e5 tionoCca1ngJloUI
gold will have a fortune greater than
Rockefellers and Morgans and Harrl
I mans combined said II C Norman
I of Denver yesterday As every placer
miner knows In many cases such as
In the Snake river Idaho there Is
plenty of gold but it is so fine that
1
today we can not save a cent of it I
Gold by the action of the sand and
water Is ground finer than most people
appreciate
I have seen gold so fine that It took
a minute by the watch for it to settle
through one foot of air In a glass jnr I
It will mix with water like wheat flour I
and take hours to settle I once had I
a small bottle of water and this gold
mixed It looked like brown mud at
the bottom of the water When I
shook It up and dipped a pen in the
water and gold mixed I could write
a name on a card The writing looked
as if done with pale brown ink but
when it dried which it did in a few
minutes I used to draw my knife blade
over it and the apparently weak brown
scrawl turned to burnished gold
Most people even old placer min
ers fancy that gold will always sink
in water IA current of one mile an
hour will take away many a dollar
per square yard of flour gold If It is
fine enough say as line us this I am
speaking of Of course mercury will
catch It If one can bring the gold in
contact with the plate containing the
mercury but to do thet is almost im
possible At least it BO far has
proved to bo a commercial failure To
get the gold out of a cubic yard of
water in which gold was suspended
one would have to let the water flow
slowly over tho mercury In a layer
so thin that it would not flow at all
In Cherry creek which flows
through the city of Denver right by
the city hall is enough gold to pay the
national debt but we can not get It
out Tills IB where the fine gold 1
speak of camo from We caught by
special means that would not pay
commercially The gold probably
would cost at least 100 an ounce liio
way we took it out and as every ono
knows gold is worth only onefifth of
that sum We used a method by which
I we forced air up and back against the
I water carrying the gold and very
lightly al that The water was itself
I hardly moving By getting a mixture
lot water and air we had a medium
f lighter than waler alone hence the
heavier particles of this float gold
slowly sank into the feather riffles
ready for It Tins is only an outline
of the method It would take too long
to tell all about it and I am not
sure that I want to
Seat water contains about 3 cents
in gold to the cubic yard Once get
a method of extracting Ppld from sea
I water fca2 cents a yard and gold
will ho as eheap as iron because the
supply Is unlimited But so far this is
only a scientific dream Yet tho
chances of getting this flour and fiQat
gold out of the sands aro good
Float and flour gold are by no
means the same thing although many
people speak of them us the same
Float gold can be so thin Unit Uptakes
150 colots In a pan to make 1 cent
in value
Flour and float gold may in time
he saved by some process other than
washing Heretofore all efforts have
boon based on the principle that
gold is heavier than sand hence will
sink in a current that will carry off
I the sand But one must remember one
vital principal In nature that comes
I into play Just as soon as we get be
low a certain size and that is that
gold may be to small thaton tho sur
i face a particle of it opposes to tho
J
water In proportion to Its weight is fat
greater than tho relative proportion
of the surface and the weight of the
sandThe S
The smaller you make anything
tile more its surface increases in pro
portion to Its mass There Is a para
dox at the end of this line of investi
gation because followed out logically
when ono bad reduced tho mass ol
a particle of gold to zero the sikfaco
would be InfinIte
Now water is a very sticky sub
stance To gold particles so small as
those floating In the Snake river for
instance this far from the original
deposit water Is as sticky as mo
lasses In January or even as pitch is
to marbles A marble will sink to
tho bottom of pitch in time but It
may take it five years to do so Yet
the pitch Is EO hard that ono can not
make a dent In It with the naked
finger This Is how the gold acts in
water If fine enough
All the schemes to catch this gold
by means of mercury have so far
amounted to nothing because the loss
of mercury being floured and carried
away by the sand more than cquals
the gain in gold What Is the use 01
losing a dollars worth or mercurv to
catch half a dollars worth of gold
Yes sir when you solve the flour
gold problem you will wear diamonds
for buttons and never stoop to pick
one up when it falls off But that
day has not yet come It will aomo
day because the best place to pros
pect Is In the test tube The labora
tory Is the best field to hunt for gold
