THE GREAT "STRIKE WARS"

Statistics Of 1888 Show a Decided Failing
Off the Number of Employees Affected.
During 1888 there were reported to-
Bradstscets $40 strikes and lockouts, an
average Of more than two each working
day, involving 2ll,s4l industrial em-
ployes, as against 1884 strikes and lockouts.
an average Of nearly three each working
day, involving 345, 5s4 employees, in 1857,
and $50 strikes and lookouts, invoav-.
ing 44s,oOo employees, in 1886. These
figures would seem to show that the high
est point of the so-called strike wave"
was reached in 1886, and that since that
time the decline in the number of en-
ployes involved, at least, has been steady
and of considerable volume. The de-
cline in the number of men involved in
strikes in 1888 from the totals of 1886 was
236, 359, or over 50 per cent, while the de-
cline last year from the figures Of 1887 was
1908, or 80 per cent. Comparing the
number of strikes reported in 1888 with
thos, of 1886, 679 against $50, there is
~ rantly an increase of "a per cent. I'M

Safe Interest.

All national and State banks receive
deposits subject to check at sight, but
do not pay interest. Principal trust
companies have two systems, elective
at the time of depositing, one similar
to the above banks and the other q
time account, when a notice of from
ten days to two weeks is required. On
the first system they pay 2 per cent.
and on the latter p per cent. No reli-
able banks pay more rate of interest
than that cited here, and on any larger
rate of interest it would be we'll to ex-
anime carefully the security.
