CONDUCTORS CHANGE.
The News' Story Published Three
Weeks Ago Is Corroborated.
It was The News that informed the
public three weeks ago that the con
ductors on the Southern, who have
been laying over in Charlotte, were, in
the near future, to change to Spencer.
This information, at the time, was ob
tained from a thoroughly trustworthy
source and there has never been any
doubt as to the accuracy of the report.
Charlotte will dislike very much to
see this change, but, it will effect this
that for the south-end conductors. 41
now have their homes in this city, will
continue1 to reside here. It only means
that for the south end conductors. 44
miles will be added to their run and
the conductors who lay over here a
day, will go to Spencer.
The Southerns conductors are a
splendid lot of gentlemen. Those who
have been running here for many years
say they regret the change but they
think with the Southern officials that
the company's interests demand the
change. They are loyal to their supe
rior officers and are willing to put up
with temporary inconveniences in
order that the company's interests may
be better served. As has been said be
fore, Charlotte will regret to see the
change and the genial big hearted con
ductors share in Charlotte's regret, v
THE WEATHER.
-"Forecasts for tonight and Thursday.
For Charlotte and vicinity: Fair to
night and Thursday.
WEATHER CONDITIONS.
The depression that extended across
the country yesterday has moved rap
idly eastward, causing general rains
in the Atlantic States in the past 24
hours. As a rule the amounts recorded
were light to moderate, except along
the coast: Hatteras reports 1.34 inches.
Jupiter. Fla.. had 3.2S inches, and
Tampa 1.30 inches. Rain continues in
eastern portion of the North Atlantic
States and snow is falling in the lower
Lake region. The storm is central off
the Jersey coast this morning. High
er pressure, with colder, clear weather
again prevails in the central and upper
Mississippi valley, with zero tempera
tures in the latter section. An ener
getic area of low pressure over the
Montana is causing mild conditions
over the Rocky mountain region.
There is much cloudiness in the Gulf
States today with rain falling in in
terior Texas.

FOREIGN NOTES OF INTEREST,
The managers of the Paris Metropol
itan Underground railway have been
persuaded by lovers of dogs to consider
the question of providing special
cars on their trains in which dogs and
their owners can travel together, in
stead of the dogs being separated from
their masters or mistresses, as at pres
ent is necessary.
At Luchlow, in Germany, 129 fathers
have been fined a few cents apiece for
allowing their children under ten
years of age to dance at the harvest
festival of a village near by. The vil
lage pastor objected the dancing and
reported the case to the police. It was
discovered, however, that his children
had danced, too, and he was fined with
the rest.
Reports from Italy state that the
phylloxera is working ravages among
the vineyards of that country and that
there will be an unprotected demand
for American vines with which to
graft the old ones. It is reported that
908 provinces in Italy have been in
vaded by this insect and not less than
750,000 acres of vineland have been
entirely destroyed.
The French mariners record for big
icebergs off Cape Horn was broken re
cently, says a San Francisco dispatch
in The Chicago Inter-Ocean, when the
British ship Anglesey, Captain Thomp
son, arrived from Newcastle, England,
and reported that on September 20th,
off Cape Horn, she sailed into a great
ice field, in the midst of which was a
gigantic iceberg, approximately 100
feet high.
