Offola Statement issued by Men on
Strike Through Press Committee.
The Strikers Show What South
ern's Proposition Mean.
Knoxville, Tenn., Oot. $.-At
soon Wednesday 900 men quit work
at the Coster shops of the Southern
railway in this city.
They walked out leaving one man
in each shop to look after the tools.
Wednesday morning when a passen
ger train 'from Cincinnati stopped at
'Coter, seven machinists and 12 ma
Waiists' helpers, all strike breakers,
left the train and went to the s-hops.
A committee of shopmen subsequent
ly waited upon Superintendent of Mo
tive Power J. B. Muchael and in
quired If theee men were to be put
to work in the sihops. Mr. Michael
replied in the affirmative. The su
perintendent's answer spread very
quiokiy, and when the strike-break
or, entered the machine shops just
before noon, the 900 employes left
their work and came to the city.
No demonstration aocoanpanied this
suspension of work. Representatives
of the shopmen state that the walk
out Is on account of the general sym
pathetie viewe- e e i e;,for tb,t ga
chinists who are on 'etrike. Southern
railway off(lials thave made no state
snont as to what will be doe s .
The boilermakers workiag at the
Southern ehops have declared against
- a walkout, at least for the present.
At a meeting of the local organ
Asation over which its chief execu
tdve, L. L. Householder, presided,
the situation locally was given a full
and free discussion and ended in a
declaration that the boilermakers were
satisfled, at least for the present..
The Atlanta machindte, at a meet
ing held Wednesday, issued an ad
dress in which they gave to the pub
lie their side of the question. In
that address given out by the press
committee it is stated:
."The iputhern railway .would leave.
the general public under the impres
sion that the company offered in their
proposition to the machinists a flat
proposition of I cent in all the shops
.on their system. The fact is that
fthe machinists would gladly accept a
1tat proposition of 11/ cents, and sub
mit the balance to arbitration.
"The,real proposition of the con
pany is as follows:
"The company agreed to give the
men in 'the followinfg shops the fol
lowing a:lvantce: Mianchester, 1 cent;
Lawrencev'ille, 1 cent: Spencer, %/
cent: ('olumbia. % cent: Charles-ton,
% cent: Aug'usta, 3%4 cents; Atlanta,
1% cents: Blirmingham , 1 cent: Set
ma. % cent; Knoxvllie, %A cent.
"IFromi the abhove It can be plainly
-seen by1 tho most casual observer that
the eabove figures would pnly give uis
les tl'an % of a cent increase to the
menC inv'olve'd.
"It woulid he the nmost uinrasonable
propreition to ex:pee! the men to yield
is much at the very start, and.
trust so anbitration for the balance.'
Were it a ma'ter of protits. oae couldt
with safe'ty acceipt, but where it in
volYes the brains and life of human
beings. rhe proulositionl is mlanifes-tly

The Besi Horse.
This fish Is found In the Atlantic
ocean around the coast of Spain, the
south of France,- In the NId)terranean.
and in the Indian ocean. Sea horses
are very small and have been found
often curled up in oyster shells. The
head is mutch like that of a horse, and
the rings around the body and tall re
semble those of some caterpillars. The
habits of these fishes are singular and
interesting. They swim with a waving
motion, and frequently wind their tails
around the weeds and rushes. They
have tins to sustain them in the water,
and even in the air. They live on
wornis, fishes. eggA and substances
fonnd in the bottom of the sea.
Stevens,' (:rave.
No English novelist rests in a more
eccentric spot than that chosen by
Itobert l.ouis Stevenson. who Isl buried
on the summit of the forest clad Vaila,
in the ishsmd of Samoa. The day after
his death at Vailiima, in 1894. his re
mains were carried to the top of this
precipitous and picturesque peak by
sixty sturdy Samoans, who had loved
and now mourned their dead chief,
Tusitula. A party of forty had pre
viously cut a pathway through the
thick, tang'cl wood with knives and
axes. while another party had pre
pared the grave. With Infinite care
and trouble they bore him shoulder
high over the rough ground to his last
long home, and there, under the starry
sky, they lft titp to slAep fores;ec. with
the Pacific at his feet. On either alde
of bla tombstone is a bronxe plate.
One bears the words. "The Tomb of
Tusitula." while the other is inscribed
with his own requiem, beginning:
Under the wide and starry sky
Dig the grave and let me lie.
The Amesrea. Bufalo.
The buffalo is the bulkiest living land
animal native to North America. A
full grown buffalo bull stands about
five feet eight or ten inches at the
shoulder and weighs about 1.800
pounds. But specimens of over six
feet at the withers have been recorded.
and Mr. lornaday tells me that he
weighed a living bull at 2.100 pounds.
A full grown cow stands about four
feet eight at the shoulders and. accord.
lng td~ Auddbon: weigh{ abotit 1.200
pounds, though Henry says seldom over
700 or 800 pounds. The lower weight
seems to be nearer the average run.
but I have seen cows that stood as
high and looked as heavy as ordinary
bulls. - EIrnest Thompson Seton in
Scribner's.
