THE LABOR TROUBLE ADJUSTED.
Mill Employes Returned to Work As to
Cause of the Disturbance.
Mr. J. A. Arringdale, vice president
and general manager of the Cape Fear
Lumber Co., made satisfactory ar
rangements with the laborers who
walked out of the mill Wednesday and
yesterday morning they returned to
work as usual and no further trouble
is expected.
In making a note of the walk-out in
yesterday's Stab the rather broad as
sertion was made that white labor or
ganizers were believed to have been
at the bottom of the affair. By this
statement no implication in or reflec
tion was intended to be made upon
the organized labor unions of the city
and particularly none as to the Car
penters' and Joiners' Union which
is composed of substantial men, who
had no interest whatever in the mat
ter, their union, the strongest in the
city, having for its object the cultiva
tion of pleasant relations between em
ployer and employe and resorting to
strikes only when strikes are absolute
ly necessary to their own protec
tion. KNIQHTS OP PYTHIAS ELECTION.

Greensboro. N. C. June 5 A
nice clean .game was played by both
teams here this afternoon. Wilming
ton made its first appearance of the
season and a good impression. The
new men showed up well but lack of
cohesion lost the battle. Lawson bids
fair to be one of the best short stops in
the League. O'Neill at second played
wonderful ball, while Hines at left
showed up as a fast player. The team
seemed full of spirit and life under the
new management Krouse pitched a
good game. Practice together is all
that is apparently needed. Manager
Mace speaks highly of the prospects.

Not From the Horse Editor
They Are Only Substitutes.
The present baseball manage
ment assumes no liability for contracts
or liabilities of the former manage
ment. Raleigh Post: "Fisher is an all-
round ball player of whom any team
should be proud. He has made many
friends in Raleigh."
Raleigh Post: "That unassisted
double by Dommel on Tuesday was
among the prettiest plays ever seen
on this diamond."
Brandt, of Charlotte, allowed only
two hits in the game with Newborn
Wednesday. O'Steln, of the Char
lotte team, is very ill at his hotel.
Raleigh has released Bill Farrell,
first baseman, and signed Davis in his
stead. . Pat Rollins, catcher and out
fielder, has been signed from the
Pennsylvania League.
Raleigh claims ithat Manager
Bennett, of the Shreyeport, La., team,
baa been to Wake Court House and Is
trying to lure some of her players
awav. We don't believe it. What
does Bennett want with them t
Philadelphia Sporting Life
"Wilmington continues her losing
streak, but with the change in the
management and the strengthening of
her team she will soon begin to win
some games. The public have nobly
supported a losing team there.";.
Greensboro Telegram: "Messrs.
John G. Hines, W. J. Lawson, Harry
J. O'NeiL the new players whom
Manager Mace has signed for Wil
mington, arrived . this morning and
registered at Clegg's. They will
await the arrival of the home team
to-morrow." ' v
On account of their generous as
sistance to baseball in Wilmington
this season and many past, the Board
of Directors yesterday afternoon de
cided to reduce the price of admission
for ladles to the grand stand to 15
cents, instead of 25 cents, as hereto
fore, witho general admission at the
gate. ' -:-v
Manager Mace while In Washing
ton placed an order for eleven new
uniforms which will be here Monday
subject to Inspection. If they are ' all
right the reorganised team will appear
in them for the game the aame After
noon. The ladies of the city have
generously set to work to meet .the
navmenL and the new dress for the
team will be all the more, appreciated
for that - ' '
Those who have been accustomed
to view the game from some lofty
perch In a tree top, standing In bug-
giesand carriages or hanging to the
fence will no longer enjoy that privi
lege. The Park grounds have teen
leased by the Baseball Association,
and notices posted that no such tres
passing will be allowed. : Policemen
will Bee that the law is enforced.
The Fayetteville Observer gives
this incident of a game there this
week between the Fayetteville and
Smithfield negro teams : " During the
progress of the game one of the play
ers was hit a terrific blow on the head
with a ball and knocked senseless. A
bucket of iced lemonade near at hand
waa dashed on him and he promptly
came too."
