(Special to. The' Evening Times.) Atlanta, da., Nov. U. At the in clusion of the conference of throe governors (Smith, Coiner and Glenn) lute last night, the participants save out a "signed statement" which ap pears below. The ' "(statement" contains little ihe public wanted to know. The confer ence was held behind closed doo.s and the strictest secrecy was main tained, as stated in these dispatches to The Evening Times yesterday. Since the conference adjourned the same secrecy has been observed by all three of the governors. However, it is very generally known here today that Olenn and Smith out voted Governor Comer mi the 2-!i-cent rate proposition, the basis of the com promise which brought about the set tlement of the question and a cessa tion of further agitation In Alabama, so far as the Southern Railway is con cerned. Deals In Generalities..'' The "signed statement" given out to the press and which deals only in gen eralities and omits the things the public most wants to know, reads as follows: ; "Our conference has been most sat isfactory. We discussed conditions in our respective states and we arrang ed to co-operate in the investigation of tacts and law connected with the duty of our states to the public and to the transportation companies. We will also co-operate with other states which have the same problems. We regard the complete recognition of the right of the states to regulate the Intra-state bus'ness of transportation companies as absolutely necessary. "No injury has been done to any corporation in either of our states by the exercise of the power of regula tion. Increased business as a conse quence of reduced rates required by ' our state authorities has in every case i(here fairly - tried compensated the corporations. "We deplore the fact that railroad corporations have been In some in stances damaged by the efforts of their officers to disregard the action of our states. This has happened in every case where they have made allega tions In the courts of sensational claims of Injury contrary to the facts. "When the railroad companies cense their false cry of confiscation and sub mit to the duly constituted authorities, upon which alone rests the right to determnc questons of pubic confidence and a restoration of normal credits, the authorities of our states are at all times ready to hear from the railroad companies fully and to accord to them treatment, not alone Just, but liberal. "The details of our conference we do not consider it desirable to make pub lic at this time. . B. B. COMKR, "Governor of Alabama. "It. B. GLENN, "Governor of North Carolina. "HOKE SMITH, "Governor of Georgia." The two visiting governors were roy ally entertained by Governor Hoke Smith while here and they were the objects of much attention. THOUGH WORSTED HE STAYED TILL HE WON Dayton, O., Nov, 2. After being saved by the bell In two different rounds Frank Mantell of Providence got in two chance blows in the fif teenth round and knocked out Honey Mcllody of Boston here last night. Mantell has been badly worsted In the third and thirteenth rounds in which he was saved from a knock out by the bell at the close of each round. He braced up, and until the fif teenth round had made matters pretty even. Mellody in his round threw caution to the winds and set himself for a knockout punch with his right. Quick as a flash Man tell's left shot out, catching Mellidy on the jaw and no sooner had it landed than a right hook found lodgment on the Jaw. Mellody pitch ed forward on his side and rolled over on his back clearly all out Norfolk and Southern Shops at Newbern Closed FINANCIAL TROUBLES?

C, Nov. 1 There Is no little '-anxiety ''manifested hero today over the development of yes terday afternoon,'' which closed down the shops of ..the" Norfolk & Southern Railway the road which next Mon day week is to celebrate tin; comple tion' and opening of the line from Raleigh to Washington, N. ('. The recent suspension of the New England bank.' in '-which the - chief hacker of the Norfolk & Soul hern is so largely Interested, caused much anxiety here' and something of this kind has since been feared. The Norfolk & Southern shops here were closed by officials of I ho road and announcement was posted saying that the same would not re sume work until November 4th. This action was not anticipated by any one connected with the shops and there is an air of mystery about the whole matter. Officials will say noth ing beyond the fact that Uie shops are closed .temporarily A spirit of unrest exists not only with the men employed but also with the citizens, as it Is feared that the shops are closed permanently, or at least for the winter, -, Some of the workmen, anticipating that the shut ting down is permanent, have ap plied for positions elsewhere.1 The situation at present Is regarded as serious, but hopes are held out that work will he resumed at the time ap pointed. KILKENY CAT (By Leased Wire to The Times.) Linton, Ind., Nov. 2. Three hundred men employed In the Summit coal mines went on a strike several weeks ago because the owner would not dis charge the mine boss. After they hud been on strike eight days the officers of the organization decided the strike unauthorized and made each of the strikers liable to a fine by the opera tor of $1 for each day, ..'or a total of. $2,400, The money was withheld, from their wages, and now the 'mlnerti have sued to recover It, claiming that the agree ment entered into by the organization does not bind them and that the fining of the strikers is an act beyond the power of the operator" to perform.

MIKE SULLIVAN WHIPPED FIELDS (By Leased Wire to The Times.) Goldfleld, Nev., Nov. 2. Mike (twin) S,ullivan of Boston got the decision last night in the twentieth round of a desperate effort on the part of Frank Field to Bave a knock out. The feature of the battle was the constant and almost uninterrupt ed Jabbing of Sullivan during the en tire fight. After the sixth round he landed tlnie and again on the face of his opponent but the blows failed to prove effective, Field's sticking gamely to his mun trying to pro i long the fight.

(I! (Hy i e w v s. FAnNswoimi.) 1 ( isi. d Wire to The Times.) York Nov. 2. What will un- doubtedlv prove the greatest gridiron struggle in the history of football will be fought at the Polo Grounds this afternoon when the Carlisle Indians and the Princeton Tigers clash. Jliis battle will bring together the only two teams that have scored over 2u0 points. The Tigers were above that murk before last Saturday's defeat at the hands of Cornell, while the In- r,fisse.l the ilouhln pentnrv murlr I t- wben the l'eiin off son. pushed the sons of William he football map for the se,a- ( ivcr L',-. the game. C00 people are expected at and if they don't get the best run for their money they ever had. Ii v i I be because one of the teams has taken a decided slump. In in tier lo expedite the handling of the crowd that will be present sep arate entrances will be provided for the various stands. In this manner it is .hoped to make it possible to seat the crowd with as much expedition as a lug baseball crowd Is accommo dated, by the management of thj giants. Iso spectators will be allowed to leave their seats betyveen halves and promenade across the field. Mike Thompson, of . Georgetown, will referee the game and "Jack" Minds, of Pennsylvania, will be the umpire. , . ' " ' The game started at 2:30. There will be two thlrty-mlnute halves. The In dians must be given the credit for having' done more to awaken the foot ball world to the possibilities of the football game than any other eleven. They pull off plays successfully which no other eleven ot the big four would attempt this time of the season. There is no man passing the ball oi any other eleven who can hurl tht cval us far as a good full back can kick it. Yet this Is what the Indians do again and again and in doing fo or. the third down practically remove the penalties that were provided) to pjnlsh a team for incomplete advance passes. There are kick formations from v hlch the forward pass will often be made, but there are also kick forma tions almost as certain to result In a pant. Yet from the latter the Indians frequently use the forward pass and vyiat would be poor generalship on the part of any other team becomes a perfect generalship on the part of the redskins This Is partly because of Its success hi '.-many Instances. But a team that can engineer a forward pass for forty- bvo yards, successfully or not, Is ai ell off as nny other team whose full nt from the fe;iu back can . kick an average of fifty previous trial in yards. For if the forward pass is un it ext inordinary ! successful on the third down the at- tacking eleven merely loses the ball, gaining at the same time the distance of an average kick, There Is also a chance that the forward pass will bo successfu and a further advantage Is that a lenin can protect it better by far than it can a kick. The Indians use the forward pass whenever they feel like it, at least they have in all the games tby have played this season, but they may find that the Tigers have a way of break ing this play up, although it is doubt ful. .....'
