“Evelyn Nesblt Tlmw will go on

threat to her. and that Thaw- believed
his life was In danger; that when he
saw White make a certain move, as It
will he claimed. h<» shot first. That lx
the story and all this alienist talk as

for effect and to take the common

440 STRIKERS OUT
ALL WORK TIED UP
Eighty Lay Down Tools Af
ter Monster Meeting
of Union Men.
Augusta, Ga.. Feb. 2.—Eighty addi
tional men front the Charleston and
Western Carolina and the Georgia roll-
way shops went out on a strike this
morning, causing the total number
have laid down their tool* to amount to
440.
There seams to he no probability at
Jho present of the strike terminating,
aa the car workers say that they are
waiting for ths rail road officials to an.
swer their petition for more pay and a
recognition of iltelr union, and also
that they wish the railroads to sign
contracts with the men.
The number nf men now on the strike
foots up to a larger number than it w as
rst thought.- a* yesterday 235 white
men struck and 125 negroes. This
morning these numbers were augment
ed hy 80 additional car Inspectors w ho
agreed to strike after a monster meet
Ing had been held last night, aj which
they were Initiated Into the union.
-The neffme* who went on a strike
are mcmlier* f the International As
soclatlon of far Workers, but they be
long to the Federal Union, under the
ujtrol of President Gonipers, of the
American Federation of !*abor.
K* L. McTIghe, .general organizer of
the car workers, stated this morning
that only three men remain at work In
the Georgia railroad car shops apd only
two are at work In the Charleston
and Western t ‘arollna shops. .
At the meeting last night resolutions
ere passed condemning disorder and
lawlessness In all of Its forms, and
every striker who sees a brother striker
violating the law ahall call an officer
and have him arrested.
Mr. McTIghe says that the car work
rs have the support and sympathy of
the machinists and blacksmiths, and
that If scab workmen are employed
by the railroads these men will refusa
oik with them.
