PATAL SHOOTING AT LLORKE
Negro Killed by "Top" Collier,
Who Is Himself Wounded.
Elloree, March 14-A homicide
occurred at A. S. Way's plantation
about five miles from here, last
night about 7 o'clock, as a result of.
which Browin, Oliver, colored, was
killed, and Manly Collier, white,
familiarly known as "Top'" Col
-lier, lies seriously wounded. There
were no eye witne~sses to the trageldy,
and the details are maggre. It ap
pears that young Collier drove from
is father's place, which is only a
.Drt distance from the road to his
me, to deliver a message to Mr.
av, and when he reached the
nt gate spoke to the cegro anid
asked him what he was doing out
there in the dark whereupon the ne
gro cursed Mr. Collier and com-1
menced firing upon him at close
range, the balls taking effect in the
arm, one passing through. the palm
of the hand and another striking him
in the mouth, knocking out two
teeth and splitting the tongue. Mr.
Collier, wtho was armed, fired upon
the negro three times, each shot tak
ing effect, the last one striking the
negro just below the heart. Oliver
ran off into the road a few yards
distant and fell dead. Mr. Colleir
was taken into the Way home, where
his wounds were dressed, thence to
his father's home. His physicians,
Drs. Browning and Green, say that
it is impossible to state at this time,
what will be the outcome of his
wounds as they have been unable to
locate the ball that struck him in
the mouth. He is resting easy to
night, and it is possible that he will
recover. The shooting is shrouded
in mystery, and it is not known for
what reason this negro fired upon
Mr. Collier with deadly intent,
loosing.
A jury was empanelled and the
verdict, in substance, was in ac
cordance -with the above.
STRTK ORDERED.
25,000 Piremen Called Out on West

Chicago, Ill., March 15.-At mid
-night W. S. Carter, president of the
Brotherhood of Locomotve Fire

been called.

sides in the controversy between the

~ Dr. Earl S. Sloan,
deelared that a strike seemed immi
nent, the railroad managers assert
the danger point had been passed.
It was said to be likely that the
mana.gers' committee, headed by W
C. Nixon, general manager of the St.
Louis and San Francisco Railroad,
would invite W. S. Carter, president
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen, and his
committee to another joint confer
ence. The Brotherhood has taken
the position that unless all the
questions in dispute are submitted
to arbitration under the Erdman
Act, a strike on all the systems be
tween Chicago and the Pacific coast
would be resorted to. The railroads
today reiterated. their assertion that
they would stand "pat" on refus
ing to submit to arbitration any
thing but the wage demand.
"We know a strike will not be
called, " said 0. L. Dickeson, assist
ant to the president of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy. "That stage
of the game is over. It is now only
a question of our getting together.
The men will readily see that a
strike would be preposterous."
"The railroads are trying to make
light of the situation," said Presi
dent Carter. "It is indeed critical.
We have been authorized by a vote
to call a strike unless they make
concessions and we have asked for
an arbitration of the whole matter.''
Mr. Carter said, the decision to
strike had been reached at a meat
ing of forty-three members of the
Western Faderated board of the
Brotherhood,. each member repre
senting a Western road.
The exact hour at which the men
are to walk out, he said, would be
decided upon tomorrow, and every
member of the Union between Chi
-:ago and the Pacific coast would
be then. informed by telegraph when
to quit work.
- Strike Postponed.
Chicago, Ill., March 15.-Danger
of an immediate strike of 27,000 lo
comotive firemeni on W*tern rail
roads, and the contingent throw.ing
Iout of employment of more then
1125,000 other employees, was avert
ed to-day through the acceptance of
mediation from the Federal author
ities at Washington. At the request
of the general managers of the
forty-seven Westerni railroads in
volved, Chairman Martin A. Knapp,
of the Inter-State commerce com
mission, and Commissioner of Labor
C. P. Neill telegraphed an offer of
Federal mediation to the union offi
ers. This offer was accepted. W.
S. Carter, president of -the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen amd
Enginemeni, stipulating that aiet'ion
must begin without delay.
The appeal to Washington was ta
ken as an eleven.th hour move to
prevent a walkout, 'which, it was de
elared, threatened the greatest rail
road strike since that of 1894. Thir
ty-seven members of the Western
1i'ederation board of the Brother
hood last midnight formally voted
for a strike.
The hour for striking had been
set/ for next Monday morning, and
the members were prepared to start
for their homes to put the strike
into action, when the mediationl
steps were ta.ken.
The mediators~ Will come to Chica
go, and, accordinig ti Mr. Carter,
will not arhitrate t.he questions in
.dispute, but will determine what
shall be arbitrated. The questions
involve wages, *'hieh both sides had
agreed to arbitrate, and two other
technical points,- involving prentos
tion and representation ini the tIP
ida:.. These latt* sub jects, the
Brotherhood contends, musit be ar
bitrated, but the railroads assert
they cannmot~ be arbitrated, because
they relate to internal union dis
putes.
"If the mediation falls through
the strike will go righvt on, as plan
ned,'' said Mr. Carter to-night.
In a statement given out to-night
the gen.eral managers said:
"All prospects of a strike are
over. There will be none. Settle
ment of the whole controversy by
mediation and arbitration is as
sure.''
ISSUES PROCLAMATION.
President Taft Urges Co-operation
in Work of Taking 13th
.Oensus.
Washington, March 14.-President
Taft, in a production issued today,
urges everybody throughout the
United States "to answer promptly,
completely and accurately all in
quiries addressed to them by the
en:'mrators or other employees''
who will be ennaged in the taking of
te thiteenthi decennial eensus.
whc work w~ill begin one month
fn'un tomorrow. The proclamation
flows
"Whereas, by thae Act of Congressy,
approved July 2, 1909, the thirteenth
decennial census of the United
States is to be taken, beginning on
the fifteenth day of April, nineteen
hundred and ten, and
"Whereas, a correct enumeration
of the population every ten years is
required by the Constitution of the
United States for the purpose of
determining the representation of
the several States in the House of
Representatives, and
"Whereas, it is of the utmost im
portanee to the interests of all the
people of the United States that this
census should be a complete and ac
curate report of the population and
resourc.es of the country.
''Now, therefore, I, William How
ard Taft. President of the United
States of America, do hereby de
elare and make known that, under
.the Act aforesaid, it is the duty of
every person to answer all questions
On the census schedules applying to
him and the family to which he be
longs, and to the farm occupied by
him or his family, and that any
adult refusing to do so is subject to
pen2lty.
"The sole purpose of the census
is to secure general statistical in
formation regarding the population
and resources of the country, and
replies are required from individuals
only in order to permit the compila
tion of such general statistics. The
census has nothing to do with taxa
tion, with army or jury service, with
the compulsion of school attendance,
with the regulation of immigration,
or with the enforcement of any na
tional, Sta-te or local law or ordi
nance, nor can any person be
harmed it any way by furnishing
the information required. There
need be no fear that any disclosure
will be made regarding any indi
vidual person or his affairs. For
the due protection of the rights and
interests of -the persons furnishing
information, every employee of the
census bureau is prohibited, under
heavy penalty, from disclosing any
information which may thus come
to his knowledge.
"I therefore earnestly urge upon
all persons to answer promptly,
completely and aceurately all inqui
ries addressed to them by the enum
erators or other employees of the
census bureau, and thereby to con
tribute their share toward making
this great and necessary publie un
derta,king a success.
"In witness whereof I have here
norito set my hand and caused *the
seal of the United States to be
affired.
"Done at the city of Washington
this fourteenth day of March, A. D.
one thousand, nine hundred and
ten, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the one
hundred~ and thirty-fourth.
"By the Presideint,
"Wi. H, Taft,
(Seal.) ...
"P. C. Knox, Secretary of State."
The proclamation is for the pur
pose of removing fears from the
minds of some people, who are of
the opicion -that information which
they give concerning themselves to
the census taker may be used in
some way t-o the detriment of their
personal or business interests.
Against aiy suc'h abuse, however,
the Government has, thrown the

Popular Mechanies for April.
IPopularity, in many instanoes,
has been a matter of a few days, a
few years, or, perhaps, severa]
-deoades. This- has been true of mnany
otable personages, of any numrber
of books and of not a. few periodi
als. The trend of civilization, ,es
pecially in America, is to demand
the mod'ern-the' ap4o=date, in ev
erything with which people eois
ern themselves. This e>rplains the
early death of so many hooks and
magazines; the policy has been
founded on some narrow prineiple
that does not admit of change in
conformity to the demand for
ehange,. For this reason, as much
as for any other, Popular Mechanics
promises to' have a long a.nd pros
perous life. The very nature of the
publication givss it an option on the
good thi-ngs of al1 the ages to come,
and that good things will continue to
come the habitual reader of the
magazines stands convinel.
In the last few months Popular
Mechanics has attained: the matu.re
stature of 150 reading pages. In the
April number appear 268 articles
and 268 illustrations, covering in
sprightly and attractive fashion the
full range of science and invention
as developed since the publication
of the previous number. A note
worthy feature every month is H.
