INGALLS, ON STRIKES AND LABOR.
Address mt st. Louis Giving His Plan Tor
Solving the Labor Problem.

One of the ablest addresses made be-
fore a large number Of railway o1hcials
and businessmen was at the opening OF
the new Union Station at ST. Louis, ana
was that of NJ. i. Ingalls,, president or
the Big Four and Chesapeake and ONO
Railway Company. That portion OF MS
remarks regarding the late STRIKE ana
his plan for solving the labor problem Is
given below: ,-
standing here tonight and listening
TO the dying echoes of the greatest, the
most causeless. and most unsuccessful
strike ever known, we may ask ourselves,
as railway managers, why II was tnat
few worthless domagogues should induce
such q large number OF our employees 10
neglect their interests, 10 forget all inc
LOYALTY and devotion which they owe 10
the companies that had employed them,
and engage in conspiracy, when, IL IL
had succeeded, would have ruined them
and the railways too. What Is the cause
of this great dissatisfaction? Is 1t be-
cause our railway systems have got so
large that the sense OF loyalty or the
employee 10 the employer Is lost? Is II
because 1t has been so fashionable among
politicians and newspapers 10 abuse RAN
WAYS and their arrangements? Is II be-
cause a few men by fortunate specula-
ton have made large fortunes, and there
by the public has been led TO believe that
the railways have been making too much
profit? Somewhere is the answer to these
Questions Possibly It will be found in
a combination Of all. but 1t behooves US
all. as managers. at this time TO consider
1t carefully, and endeavor 10 find So
luton.
"The great strike just ended Is not
without its lessons. 1t has taught US
that no strike can succeed that has no
real ground for grievance, and which pub
lie opinion does not support; therefore.
we should try to always be right. IL
has also had its pleasant features. for
II has taught many OF US that there
Is nothing so valuable as the loyalty and
devotion OF our employees. those Who
stood by the corporations, who served

Why We Are Thirsty.

The sensation of thirst is caused by
lack of fluids in the system. In a state Of
health it indicates that the body wants
moisture. We should distinguish natural
thirst from that caused by stimulating
food and beverages, which produce fever
in the organs of digestion. Thirst is
caused by "a failure of the salivary and 9th
er glands to secrete n proper amount OF
fluid for use in the stomach. 1t is possible
to quench thirst not only by the ordinary
means, but through the blood vessels and
the skin. Much of the water drank passes
out through the skin by means of the
blood vessels and is known as unconscious
preparations. 1t is well known fact that
the loss of blood is always followed by In
tense thirst. This thirst is one of the most
narrowing features of "A battlefield, as ev-
cry old soldier knows The reason for 1t
is that, the blood vessels being drained OF
their moisture the skin becomes parched,
and every pore is changed into thirsty
mouth. Thirst accompanies fevers, but
its causes are local. being due to dryness
