"Extravagant living: by those who have made money easily during our prosperous times." he said, "and the efforts of others to live on an e.tual Kcale are a leading cause of our present financial difficulties. Hut a plungo from a period of unequalrd prosperity to a condition of distrust and suspicion ho great that specie payments have been made practically suspended throughout the country. must have pome deeper source. With fair crops bringing good prices, with substantial orders on the books of factories unable to obtain tho money to 1111 them, one cannot judge from financial history or experience why this disaster was necessary. "Is there some new, unmeasured force that lias worked this evil? Tho fctrorig and proper desire for a good Investment as our banks are supervised, has been mistaken by our politicians, magazines, and newspapers for general antagonism against corporations and wealth. These attacks are fo bitter, unreasonable, and personal that J capital In great Quantities has stopped circulating. Suggestions made and actions taken have tints far been wholly destructive. Nothing creative has come from any of these sources to clear the future. aiul:ird Oil l ine. "You are familiar with the fine of the Standard Oil company. I can say this with assurance, because It was so sensational. Few of you probably know that so small a fraction of tho oil transported by this company is by rail the great part passing through its own pipe lines that its competitors would be the greatest beneficiaries through rebates and that this company lias been for years the strongest opponent of this system. "So copious and drastic has been the legislation of various states and so active their legal departments, that almost the entire time of the officers and attorneys of railroads has been devoted to appearing before committees' and answering lawsuits." GOING BACK TO EURO Undigested Americans Are Rushing Homeward by the Thousand. New York, Nov. 16. The HamburgAmerican liner, President Grant, will sail from its Hoboken berth at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon with 3,220 undigested Americans in its steerage till that possibly can be jammed Into Its third class quarters. As many more undigested Americans haunt the docks of the French line and the North German Lloyd awaiting the hour when the gates will be open for them to swarm Into the steerage dectes of other boats Boon to sail. Julius 1'. Meyer, general passenger agent of the Hamburg-American lino, said today the President Grant's steerage passenger list will bo the record for outgoing boats. He thought the rush of immigrants back to their homos would probably continue for a month. The country will be drained of a larger proportion of its alien population than at any previous time. Mr. Meyer added that the exodus of aliens for the Christmas holidays has commenced two weeks earlier this year than last. Over 100.000 more steerage passengers had left New York for Huropo by tho end of the second week In November than at the same time last year. It is estimated by steamship men who have studied the situation carefully before the tide castward is turned fully .'00.000 steerage passengers will have e4uit the country. Monkey's Intelligence. In tie Bre-siau Zoological Garden a monkey of rare intelligence was discovered to be suffering from defective eyesight, caused by a cataract. A surgeon performed an operation relieTins the trouble somewhat, but tho eyes were still weak, and it was decided that the monkey must wear glasses to keep him from losing his sight eventually. At first he fought the keepers when they attempted to put on the glasses, but ultimately ho learned the value of the lenses so thoroughly that he now puts on his "specs' every morning and lays them in a safo place at night before he goes ta s!oep. uueer una in New yotk. The skeleton of an Indian was unearthed by a workman excavating at Washington and Laight streets, New York city. The spot where the skeleton was found was the site of an old Dutch fort.

IB FIGHT FOR GIRLS Philocalians of New York Give up Hansoms and Highballs. New York, Nov. 15. Believing many young women are being led astray by following what they conceive to be the practices of women in fashionable life, Pr. Adelaide Wallerstein of 303 West Eightieth street and twenty-three other women have founded the Philocalian club to wage a crusade against girls who ride from the theater in hansom cabs, dpink highballs, and wear decollette gowns and openwork waists. Dr. Wallerstein is enthusiastic over the movement, but while she and her associates are anxious it shall accomplish much good she docs not want to he called a reformer. "Say anything you please about the club, but please do not call me a reformer," she said in speaking of the new organization. "Our club is an exclusive one and is limited to twenty-four members," she added. "No one else can get in untTl some member dies or gets tired of car rying out the principles of the club and quits." "Swear Oft" to Teach Others. "How, then, do you Intend to carry out your ideas if you do not preach them?" she was asked. "Why, by force of example, of course We have all pledged ourselves not to wear decollete gowns that is, so decol lete that the neck will be cut lower than the collar bone. You know that is not low. Then we have pledged ourselves not to unnK nignnaiis or cocktails. It Is wrong for two young people to ride about in hansom cabs at night. "A couple should go right home from the theater, instead of seeking the bright lignts of restaurants. A young woman should prepare a dainty littl supper at home. She should be abl to prepare a dainty feast, I think. 1 know she would if she did not expect to be taken out somewhere." "It Is not that we lack confidence in the girls of today. I know that hansom cabs, after theater suppers, the highball, and the cocktail are consid ered perfectly conventional, but we are pledged to do our best to change these customs of the world.' "Good, Cory Place" Is AYnnted. "What kind of place would you su gest?" "O. some good, cozy place where thev could sing proper songs, dam and play, and have a good time under proper chaperonage. Young people see fashionable folk in the theater, and in cafes, eating and drinking cocktails and highballs, and they go to dance halls and do likewise." Mrs. Wallerstein is a graduate of the New York medical college for wcmen. having taken her degree in 1905. She established the east side clinic several years ago, and still is head of it. Watching tne "Kids." A sign displayed in front of a New York department store is the delight of mothers and incidentally the innovation has increased the rush at the store's bargain counters. The store employs a fatherly-looking man to stand outside and watch the young hopefuls while the mothers wage battle with each ether in front of the counters. The scheme has proved a great success. Good M i n n e rs, Good manners are to particular societies what good morals are to society in general their cement and security. Lord Chesterfield (1694-177S).

iftm Morr Applause Tlmn KoosriH at the I'iiM, nml llugt tlio Chairman nt the Second. Wnshiutrton. Nov. 1G. President Roosevelt: lion. James Rryce, Hritish Hrnbas.Klor. ami Andrew t'arneg'.e, delivered addresses reflecting pronounced optimism as to the future of the Negro race here. The occasion was the Installation of Rev. Wilbur Patterson Thirk field as president of ILnvard university, and the celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the founding of that institution, which is devoted primarily to the higher education of the Negro. Carnegie Ahead of Them All. President Roosevelt admitted thi hardships encountered by the Negro in his efforts towards advancement, but urged that they be looked upon rather as a privilege and as stimulating great effort, for which the reward would bo equally great. Rryce pointed to the development of the race during the past forty years as being marvelous com pared with the development of the An-gle-Paxon race. It was for Carnegie to awaken unrestrained enthusiasm by hi:, declaration that it -was not now the question "what shall we do with the Negro," but "how can we get more of them?" Carnegie completed bis triumph of popularity by showing in con clusion that the race in the United States had acquired title to estates in this countryduring the past forty years larger than Belgium and Holland combined. Gathers Still More Honors. Rut the ironmaster was not content with carrying off the lion's share of applause at the installation. He went over to the Central American peace conference and was given a most cor dial reception. Chairman Anderson, of the conference, paid a tribute to Car negie's work for peace and expressed the hope that not only Central Amer ica but North and soutn America would join in the sentiment expressed by him that all shall call each other brothers. He added that In the namo of his fellow delegates he was happy to call Carnegie brother. Hugs a Central American. Carnegie was quick to respond, closing with the words "I will shake him by the hands; I will shake him by both hands, and I will embrace him." Suit ing the action to the words Carnegie advanced to Anderson, and throwing his arms around him gave him a hearty embrace. Carnegie was a member of the first Fan-American conference, and as he was about to leave the room he told the delegates that on one occasion there was a threatened rupture in the conference because of the dissatisfaction of the South American delegates. Credited with Much lxve. Carnegie tried to pour oil on th troubled waters, when the delegate to whom he was talking putting his arm over his shoulder, said to him: "Mr. Carnegie, you have more love hero Ipointing to his heart than you have money there pointing to his pocket." A brief address also Avas made by Calvo. who said that it would never be forgotten that Carnegie has always been one of the greatest advocates of peace. BUSINESS IS RETARDED Financial Stress at New York Relieved, but the Interior Now Feels the Stringency. New York, Nov. 16 R, G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: Liberal receipts of gold from abroad and a large increase in bank note circulation tend to relieve the financial stress at New York, but the Interior is now feeling the scarcity of currency, and commercial activity is retarded to some extent Dispatches from leading cities indicate conservativism in preparation for future business, ancl irregularity in collections, with most favorable news from agricultural sections in which the crops are being mar keted as freely as the supply of money will permit. Return to normal conditions will be hastened by large exports of farm staples supplying credits abroad. Financial pressure has affected the Iron industry, curtailing new contract for all forms of finished steel. Few new orders have been received by the mills, and some deliveries on old contracts are deferred because funds are not available to meet specifications. Army Engineer Retires. Washington. Nov. 10. Colonel Garrett J. Lydecker. corps of engineers. In charge of river and harbor work in the vicinity of Detroit, has been placed on the retired list on account of age. with the rank of brigadier general, the advanced rank being due to Lis service during the civil war.

"Tn view of the currency stringency," the postal card reads, "this stir plus, for which the camp has no Im mediate need, will be distributed equal ly among those attending next Thursday night's meeting. Each member will get at least $2, and probably the amount will be larger." Before the time for the exercises to begin standing room in the hall was at a premium. The otlicers of the camp were delighted with the large attendance and the enthusiasm manifested. Among those present were members whose faces had almost become forgotten. Several of these admitted they had difficulty in finding the hall. Others revealed deplorable ignorance when ritualistic work was conducted. All Stayed to the End. Rut the meeting was highly successful. Speeches were made and received with applause. The officers told the members that a campaign for new members was about to be started. It was explained that 100 names must be added to the roll by Jan. 1, and everybody promised to work. It was near midnight before the meeting closed and not a man left until the end. Did Not Relieve the "Stringency." Then a big strong box was carried Into view. The otlicers gathered about In an officious way. From the interior of the box large package? of envelopes yellow envelopes like those used by paymasters were extracted. Each envelope appeared rather, bulky. These were distributed among the members as they left the hall. Of course, they lost no time getting Inside the envelops, and inside was a beautiful brandnew $2 bill, but it was "phony" money and did not relieve the stringency. THOUGHT IT ALL REGULAR Brown-Eyed Music Teacher from Indianapolis Cool jn a Trolley Accident. Zionsville, Ind., Nov. 1G. The passengers on Indianapolis and Northwestern interurban car No. 4S had a close call for their lives at the curve half a mile east of Zionsville. The car was well filled with passengers. A short distance fro mthe curve, while the car was running thirty miles an hour the wire broke. One end was tied in a knot about the trolley pole and the other was whipped along the side of the car, breaking in windows and causing the heavy car to dance on the rails like a shell boat in a rough sea. It also caused a panic among the passengers, who made a rush for the platform, but were stopped by the con ductor. The only self-possessed pas senger was a brown-eyed music teach er from Indianapolis, who explained her coolness by saying she did not know anything unusual had happened that she thought the car always act ed that way. No one was hurt, but the car was slightly damaged, and traffic was delayed some time. ALL A MATTER OF INCHES. Voman's Increased Height Makes Hu Superior to Man. I wonder if the love ideals of worn enhood are changing with the sex which is certainly in a transition state. At one time it was a rare event for a woman to marry a man much younger than herself; now it is a com mon one. Not so very long ago, in hei secret heart, the unattached maiden rather longed for a master to whom she might play the part of admiring and adoring satellite; but in the present year of grace she prefers to be sovereign herself, and to have a prime minister who is useful and subordin ate. Can this change be in any way due to the superior inches of the modern woman? A difference must inevitably exist between the day dreams of the six-foot something and the day dreams of five-foot nothing. Only the other evening, at a concert, I was much struck by the Imposing manner in w hich a very tall woman, splendidly gowned, made her entrance into the room. She swept in as If the whole world belonged to her. while behind her followed an insignificant creature in black carrying her costly cloak, hei fan and I don't know what else. Honestly, I felt sorry for him, but realized that my pity was wasted. One could see he exulted in his wife's magnificent appearance and his own subjection. Black and White, London

Pittsburg. The special committee appointed to canvass the referendum vote for officers of the International Association of Machinists has announced the vote, which shows tha election of the following officers: James O'Connell, No. 174, international president: P.

Stark, No. 4SS; Thomas Van Lear, No. 91; H. W. Churchill, No. 471. Cleveland, O. The Erie railroad management made several propositions to the striking machinists, in a recent conference seeking t regulate the piece-work system. As the men struck to abolish the piece system, union officials are of the opinion that the propositions will be rejected in the referendum vote that is now being taken. The Erie further agrees to re-employ the strikers "as fast as their services can be utilized." This clause in the proposed agreement is. being objected to even more strenuously than the piece system. The unionists are insistent that the men must return to work as they walked out and thai all strike-breakers should be made to walk the plank. The outlook for a settlement is anything but cheering. Berlin, Germany. At the end of 1906 the 66 national unions (Central Verbaende), affiliated to the General Federation of Trade Unions at Berlin, had a total membership of 1,799,293. The increase in membership was continuous from 1,429,303 on Decem ber 31, 1905, to 1,548,978 on March 31; 1,C66,775 on June 30; 1,741,953 on September 30. and 1,799,293 on De cember 31, 1906. The average number of members was 1.689,709, against 1,334,803 in 1905 (increase 344,906, or 25.6 per cent.). New York. Employes of the West' ern Union who have been loyal through the strike were notified that the new wage schedule is now in ef 1 feet. By the new schedule the waget are advanced in accordance with th individual merit and ability of the ta legraphers and the class they are in. First-class operators' wages are advanced from $19.80 to $21 a week, and the overtime charge is a d va nee 4 ic proportion. New York. The American workIngman has come to feel keenly the danger of superannuation. On every side he hears of employers discriminating in favor of young men, a natural incident of the epeedisg of machinery and the introduction of new methods. Yet nowhere is any opportunity afforded him for providing himself in his younger years with an oldage annuity. The rising demand for old-age pensions supported by general taxation is in large part attributable to this factLondon, England. At the recent Imperial Navigation conference a resolution was carried that it be a recommendation from the conference to the board of trade that legislation be introduced whereby all seamen be paid two-thirds of their wages due at every port where the crew may desire wages to be paid. Dunkirk, N. Y. Telegraph operators, station agents and clerks of the Dunkirk, Allegheny Valley & Pittsburg railroad were notified that an increase in wages of $5 to $15 a month had been granted them, effec tive at once. The road is a part of the New York Central lines. i Havana, Cuba. In order to mini mize the chances for disorder and ta prevent the coercion of men who are willing to work in the place3 of strikers, the mayor has forbidden open aii meetings and authorized the railwaj companies to employ armed guards tc protect their workmen. Reenforcements of policemen are guarding buildings under construction. Houghton, Mich. The Copper Range Consolidated Mining company announced a cut in wages of 5 per cent. Nov. 1. About 5,000 men are affected. Their wages were voluntarily increased the first of this year.

C3eve!and. O. A national strike that was hardly heard of through tho daily papers v.-as that of the Stove Molders' International union for the nine-hour day. It is only now, after the shorter workday has been gained, that Edward Fay, first vice president, of this city, has decided to make the facts public. The strike began September 9, when the firms in many

cities. Cleveland among them, conceded the nine-hour day and in soma instances advances in wages as well. In Cincinnati, Portsmouth and Piqua, and a number of cities In other states the men walked out and gradually gained their demands. At present strikes are pending in the Van Cleave (Duck Stove and Range company) plant, St. Louis, and a few small places in the Schuylkill valley. Millinonocket, Me. The paper machine departments in the mills of the Great Northern Paper company at East Millinonocket and at Madison were closed because of a strike of the 117 machine tenders who demanded an increase of 25 cents a day making $4-25 for eight hours' work. Forty strikebreakers were met at the train by a delegation from the local union of the International Brotherhood of Pulp, Sulphite and Paper Mill workers and all but two of them agreed to leave town. With the exception of the paper machine tenders who are on a strike all of the 1,400 employes of the three mills are members of the International Brotherhood of Paper, Plup and Sulphite workers Rome, Italy. Fifty-six thousand members of the Amalgamated Society of Italian Railway Employes are preparing a monster agitation to force Italy to concede to an eight-hour working day and one whole day's rest weekly in all departments of the service, says the London Chronicle. These, together with minor demands, are being formulated with careful precision by a commission appointed for the purpose in a lengthy memorial to be presented to the government on Jan. 1, 1908. The railway men will give parliament till April 1 to open negotiations with the men's representatives, for which another term of three months is assigned as a limit. New York. Men who are prominently Identified with the immediate and practical operation of the large railroad systems of the country gathered in this city and took counsel with each other as to how best to curtail expenses on their respective roads. The general opinion expressed was that there will be a material reduction in the outlay for the operation of railroads and in the purchase of railway supplies throughout the United States. Danville, 111. Four thousand miners employed In the coal mines at Kellyville, Steelton and Westvtlle, towns a few miles south of Danville, are practically on strike as a result of the financial trouble. The miners were notified that at the time for the regular bimonthly pay day they would be paid In checks instead of currency. The men decided not to go to work until assured that they would be paid in cash, and the mines were Idle. Shamokin, Pa. Ten thousand United Mine workers were idle in the Northumberland, Monteur and Columbia county district Oct. 23 in honor of President John Mitchell. At many meetings prayers were offered for the recovery of Mr. Mitchell and urging him to remain at the head of the , organization when his present term ; expires. j Huntington, Pa. Tho situation in ! the strike of the trainmen on the , Huntington end Broad Tod railroad is becoming more acute each day. No freight has been hauled on the line since the strike was declared, and the two passenger trains now running are still manned practically by the railroad company's clerical force. The' entire railroad and coal interests in the Broad Top region are paralyzed. Indianapolis. The International Typographical union has issued an order which states that the "executive council of the international body, having made arrangements for th curtailment of expenses can now see j its way clear to reduce the eight-houi lay assessment from two per cent-, to one per cent., the reduction beinl effective November 24, 1907.
