The Southern Handles 18,000,000 Passen
; prs Withaat KOIinUny.
Washington, D. C, July 7
Fairfax Harrison, president of
the Southern Railway, announc
ed today that out of substantial
ly 18,000,000 passengers handled
by the Southern Railway for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1917,
not a single one was killed. The
management takes the utmost
satifaction in this achievement
which it has sought to attain,
and nearly, but not quite, attain
ed for several years past. It
reflects not only greater human
care and efficiency in operation,
but the improved facilities which
have'been progresively install
ed on the Southern in recent
years.
The handling of these eighteen
millions of. passengers required
71.775 trains, composed of the
average number of passenger
cars seating 72 "passengers each;
it means 249.780 passenger cars.
If these passenger trains stood
end to end on the railroad tracks
they -would extend for 5 457
miles: more than six times the
distance from Atlanta to New
York. If one passenger had
been carried the tatal distance
that these "passengers were car
ried he would have gone around
the world 85,093 times, and had
. 15,150 miles then to travel.

Deferred Ten Days.
; Salisbiiy Boys Slated for Promotion.
Saturday, the adjutant general
of vjhe state, General Royster,
forwarded advice he had.received
from Washington, to Maj E D
Kuykendall, commander of the
coast artillery corps of the state,
at Greensboro, to the effect that
the-date of the calling into mo
bilization of the corps had been
deferred 10 days. The original
orders were for July 15 and'the
telegram which came here from
Washington, via Raleigh, Satur
day was to the effect that the
coast-artillery of North Carolina
would, be mobilized July 25.
This came as a surprise to
the -members of the Guilford
Grays, who were getting ready
to dori their uniforms on the
15th.
Not only are the boys of the
local company affected by this
changed order, but tjo other
companies of the cdr?f located
in Salisbury, Charlotte vfraleigh,
JHendersonville and Willmington
are also interested.
Major , Kuykendall js head of
the corps of six well trained
companies of big gun specialists,
all recruited to full war strength.
There is' probably not a better
aggregation in the south than
this coast, artillery corps, and it
is believed that the chances are
decidedly in favor of their early
sailingogrrance. Many had
counted on coast artillery
men .going to man the forts on
tbof coast, but those locally in
terested do not figure this way
htlaroibelieving moreand
nldwtmt , coast artillery men4 will
Geneiral Persfiing. It is pointed
out tnat tne neavy siege guns
wljiich are: moved about from
place to place in Europe are in
reality more like big mortars of
the coastal forts than they are
the old fashioned artillery, and
therefore the kind of training
which makes good gunners at
Caswell is the kind necessary
to the management of the big
field guns.
With these facts in view the
Guilford Grays will not be great
ly surprised, it is understood, if
their stay is short at Caswell, or
wherever they go on the first
call.
During the past few days,
Major Kuykendall has been con
ducting an examination of offi
cers and enlisted men of his
corps for promotions. Those
who stood tests here were as
follows:
First Lieut. J H McKenzie, of
the fourth company, of Salisbu
ry: Second Lieut. Charles A
Dixon, of the fifth company
Charlotte; Sergeants Charles
Denny, Robert Van Poole and R
Good son. of the Salisbury com
pany; Corporals Guy L Helms
and Stanley R Martin; and Pri
vates William S Wal' ace, Charles
L Shaver and J L Waggoner, all
of the Salisbury company.
