The Bondholders' Meeting Postponed
Until this Afternoon.
The bondholders of the City and
Suburban railway, for whom a meeting
was called at the Central Railroad Bank
yesterday afternoon. did not take action
upon the default of the company upon its
bonds on account Of the small number
present at the maeting.
The meeting was adjourned until this
afternoon at 4 o'clock. Notices have been
sent TO all the bondholders in the city and a
full attendance is expected. Mr.. I. III.
Cunningham, cashier of the Central Rail-
road Bank, is trustee the bondholders
and the meeting will be held at hi5 office.
What action the bondholders will take is
uncertain. Ii Is reasonably certain, how
ever, that they will take steps to assume
possession of the road, either by foreclosure
or otherwise.
One Of the bondholders said last night
that they will doubtless favor the PROPOSE
ton supported by the majority Of the stock
holders, to turn the road over to the bond.
holders in discharge of the obligation. The
value Of the road, together with its real
estate, is thought to be equal to the amount of
the bonds, $780, 900. The bondholders said
it was not desired to make a sale of the
road. as the parties holding the bonds pre-
fer to continue their investment, being
satisfied that they can secure the same in
come as at present. The fact that the road
does not own its electric plant is not re-
garded as an especial disadvantage by the
bOndholders, as If they were compelled to
take charge of the road they would have
the option Of returning to horse power or Of
renting their electric power from one Of
the other companies or from the present
owners Of the electric plant now operat-
ing it.

James Foley, quite a character in local

day for fifty days by Recorder Wilson. He
was arrested Saturday night for abusing
his wife while drunk, and followed this by
curslng the policeman who arrested him.
In court he called the officer liar and
MADE all sorts of threats against him. The
recorder fined Foley $40 or fifty DAYS, and
he had to take the latter for want Of cash.

HE past few weeks have been
J marked by several of the most
frightful of railroad accidents, re-
sulting in an appalling loss of life
and the manning and wounding of
hundreds of passengers, Investi-
cation shows that in almost every
instance the wrecks have been due
to gross carelessness, for which
there is no excuse. Railroad COM
panies owe it to the public to en-
ploy only reliable men, adopt more
stringent rules and then see that
they are rigidly enforced, while the
public should demand the prose
cution and punishment of EN-
ployes who cause wholesale mur-
der by their criminal carelessness.
On all hands there is too much
recklessness of human life. Lazy
ness, forgetfullness or absent
mindedness are no excuse for dis
obedience of orders that result in
fatal railroad accidents. We need
a higher standard of regard for
human life both among railroad
managers and employees.

IN sTLvER's BEHALF.
A Very Interesting Communication From
Hon. John r. st. John, President of
the Mercantile National Bank,
of New York City.

The following is an able letter written by Hon,
John P st. John to the editor of the New York
Witness paper Of large circulation, on tho
financial situation:
To tn, Editor: deeply regret to see the ed
ltorial page of the dear old Witness week aft,r
wesk marred by a demand for single gold
standard, and a defence of Wall street gold
bugs" and the British capitalists"
From 1887 to 1913 ths ratio of silver, to one OF
gold, flu ,tusted between 1414 in ITO, this lowest
point, and 15 92 in 1873 the highest point. Thus
showing that silver varied but very little In
value until it was uHjustly and treacherously de-
| menitized by congress in 1873 That this iafam-
Gus Legislation was secured through the influence
OF the wall street gold bags" and British cap
italists" havs not the slightest doubt. The
result WIS to Increase the ratio OF silver to gold
from 1911 in 1874 to 22.10 in 1890. In other
words, by this one act the financial yard stick
was heightened from three to about five feet,
and placed in the hands of the Wall street gold
bugs" and British capitalists" with which they
measure all values Except gold) today.
WHEN TIMES WERE PROSPEROUS.
The average home m arket price fer wheat in

average has been not to exceed 65 cents. Oats

81 cents; now 40 cents. Cows in 1872 1888; now
$22. While cotton, wosl and farm lands have all
gone down in the ratio.
Thus it will be seen that under tha influence Of
this Wall street yard stick, it now requires
nearly twice as much of the product of the farm
