Nashville. Tcnn., Nov. 14. The southern quarantine and immigration convention, which has assumed its new title of Southern Immigration and Industrial association, concluded Its business, the closing session being devoted to the reading of several papers on pertinent topics. During the day session a letter was read from John Sharp Williams, in which he expressed the belief that the solution of the race nnwnn misrht be found ill a pre

concerted -ffort to bring white people j. elected

of the right sort Into the south as servants, tenants and farmers. He advocated the formation of a land company with, a capital of at least $1,OOO.OOO. to buy lands throughout tho cotton states and sell them ou time to desirable Immigrants. "Hopeful" Pha-e of the Case. A hopeful sign, Williams said, is the fact that the negro birth rate in tho co.mtry is decreasing very remarkably, while the birth rate of the white people In the gulf states is the largest anywhere in the world. Williams recommended tho establishment of a

mounted mral police after the Cape j Colony and Canadian system. "The po- j litieal phase of the negro problem we! have pretty well worked out to an ap- j proximately satisfactory issue." he WMit on to say, and recommended a limitation of the franchise to the white race. Makes Predictions of tho North. He prophesied that similar action, would be taken a generation hence in Illinois. Indiana and Ohio. He also favored the rigid enforcement of vagrancy laws and said that if the negro would net work he must get out of the Held. The importation of desirable white immigrants, not only from foreign countries, but from the north, was also suggested in the letter. Would Allure Him to Panama. N. F. Thompson, of Chattanooga, advocated the strictest enforcement of the vagrancy laws with n suspension of sentence in case the negro would go to the Panama canal, and In going into the race problem said that tho 'south his no problem as serious as

tho-e which spring from slums in New York, the anarchists in Chicago, tho race prejudice in San Francisco and

the "mob spirit" found practically in al' the labor centers of the north and cast. Prefers the Negro for Work. W. J. Oliver, of Knoxville, Tenn., told of the troubles of contractors in keeping negroes at work on construction works, but still he preferred the negro to the Italian or the Chinaman.

New York, Not. 14. B. B. Odell. exgovernor and ex-chairman of the state Republican committee, said that the management of the Republican state campaign was the "most asinine" be ever know. The whole state ticket, he said, might just asr well have been

s the result stands- it looks

like a Democratic victorv. and leaves

the Republican party in bad shape with a national campaign coming on. The Republicans. he declared, made no campaign at all, but put It all on Mr. H'ighes' shoulders. Ex-Chairman Was Ignored. 'T heard absolutely nothing," said Odell, "about any state campaign up my way. We didn't know there was a headquarters down here. I wasn't notified of anything that was going on. My advice was never asked once. Many of my friends all over the state had the same experience. Even when Mr. Hughes was touring my county I was not notified or consulted. I wasn't informed of the smallest details." Shouldn't Have Butted In. Continuing. Odell said: "The people, of this state have always resented the interference of a president of the United States in their local elections. They have done so since the days of DeWltt Clinton. I think that the interference of President Roosevelt did more harm than good I realize now that 1 made a mistake when I accepted the chairmanship of the state committee while I was governor. The people resent official and outside interference In their local political affairs. That is why I sny that the interference of Presideut Roosevelt in the last campaign did more harm than good. Bryan and Hearst a Strong Team. "I do not wish to appear In the role of general critic of the conduct of the campaign, but so far as I can make out there was no real campaign. We

should have stood for many of the

things that Mr. Hearst advocated, like the eight-hour law, the three platoon

system for the police and firemen." Odell said that Hearst was greatly Htrengthened as a political factor by

his campaign, and that while he might

not be elected president he was now a man to be reckoned with in the fu

ture. He said that a combination of

Bryan and Hearst would be a hard

one for the Republicans to beat.

Railway Employes Fast Are Getting Settlements Negotiations in tho West One OfTer Ilefused. New York. Nov. 14. There no longer appears to be any danger of a strike of railroad employes in the east, as the situation with reference to the demand of the members of certain organizations has been considerably cleared. The New York, New Haven and Hartford, and the New York Central rail

roads came to an agreement with committees representing the firemen of tho two roads affecting the status of the men on the new electric locomotives, and the adjustment committee of tho Erie locomotive engineers announced that it had conic to an agreement with the officials of that system. The liremen's committee will confer further with the New York Central and the New York. New Haven and Hartford

oOicials concerning the questions of in

creased wages and shorter hours.

As to western lines representatives

of the trainmen and firemen are negotiating with the Pennsylvania lir.es for

an increase Most, the unions refusing to acce.pt as a settlement the 10 per cent. Increase already granted. Tho

firemen of the Big Four called on the oflloers of that road at Cincinnati and asked that they bo remembered in that increase of 4 cents an hour granted western firemen. There is a rumor that the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe

and Salt Fake lines will give a general Increase of wages.
