It was absoultely impossible last night for The Intelligencer to as sure any returns and it will probably 3e several days before the managers san give any exact figures on the imendments, since they were so num erous. It is believed that ?he total vote for Anderson will hardly exceed 1500, as hat is about the figure for most gen ira! elections.

HELD CONFERENCE C. & W. C. W?l Try to Work Oat Plan to Serve People of the City to Beat Advanlage.' Two officials of the Charleston and Western Cerolina railroad, B. Wil liams, general freight and passenger agent, and F. M. Hoar, superintendent of transportation, came to Anderson yesterday in the Interest of their road. Both these gentlemen have of fices In Augusta, Ga., and their trip :o Anderson waa made for tl?? our posc of conferring with local busi ness men, with tho secretary of the chamber of commerce, and with the newspaper publishers in regard to some schedule by which thia city might g*>t better service than IB now being provided over the Anderson branch of this railroad. Nothing wa3 done in regard to the rchedule, as a result of the confer ence yesterday but Mr. Williams and Mr. Doar hope that they can work out some plans, aa a result of the suggestions made yesterday, by which their road will profit nnd the people Of this city will be well served. . At the conference numerous sug gestions' were made, all of which had good features hut some objectionable features as well. One proposed ached ule is that the mixed train leave Mc Cormick at 5 a. m. and arrive at An derson at 9:15 a. m., and returning leave Anderson at 11:15 a. m., reach ing McCormick at 3 p. m. The straight passenger train would Ipa vc McCormick at 12:30 p. m., would reach Anderson at 3:20 p. m. and returning would leave Anderson at 3:35 p. m. and reach McCormick at 6:15 p. m. However, it ts pointed out by Anderson people that under I these circumstances the crews of I both trains would spend every night ! in McCormick, whereas Anderson wants one crew at least to lay over here. Another schedule has been suggest ed, said to be o splendid one, by which the mixed train would leave McCormick at 6 a. m., arrive at An derson at io:i."> a. m. Returning it would leave Anderson at 3:00 p. m. ?nd reach McCormick at 6:15 p. m. The straight passenger train, under this suggested schedule would leave Anderson at 7:20 a. m., carrying mall, reach McCormick at 10:10 a. m., would leave McCormick* at 12:30 p. m. and arrive in Anderson at 3:10 p. m. In this maimer one crew would spend the night in Ancerson and at the same time the Anderson public would be given better facilities as to freight, at least, over the Char leston and Western Carolina than ever before. Both Mr. Williams and Mr. Doar stressed the fact that they desire to do tho very best that they can for Anderron and local people have con fidence enough in them to believe that they will do so. Any change made in' the schedule wiii toko place a week from next Sun day. MAKRET REPORT o Liverpool Cotton (By Associated Press.)
