New YORK stook Marhot.

New YORK, July 3. - When it Is
stated that the total sales of stocks at
the stock exchange reached the beggarly
sum total of 60,37s shares, and that
only $4,000 railway and miscellaneous
bonds changed hands during the entire
session, 1t will be seen that the days
operations call for no exte nsive com
ment. Tho heat and tho fact that many
operators lefs the street at an early
hour to spend the national holiday out
of town. had tendency to hold things
in check. The chief chance of tho days
limited speculation was it's under tone OF
hrmness, London contributing materi-
ally TO this condition by its early pur-
chase Of about 10000 shares OF various
itocks.
The foreigners were surprised at tho
way the market holds in view of the big
strike and turned up moderately bullish
this morning on American securities as
q result. Even the bankrupt stocks
met with better support. Erie rising
from l3 to AK, Union Pacific from 15H
to IT'S, Reading from 16X to 16& and
Northern Pacific preferred from 13X to
14&. reported agreement between
the receivers and the representatives Of

"A J. Hardesty Loses Nine Hundred Dollars
by Their Operation and Several Fani.
lies Are Out of Provisions.
A. L. Hardesty. living at No. 1905 Sixth
street northwest, awoke about o'clock yester-
day morning to find that he had been robbed of
$500, two overcoats, and diamond pin. He
notified the police at once, and an investiga-
ton was set on foot.
Mr.. Hardesty was questioned by reporter
about the robbery last night. but he was very
retcent. He would give no Information
about the loss OF the money, except that he
had retired Saturday night with the money
tucked away in a vest pocket. Awaking dur
ing the morning he searched for the $500 to
assure himself that it was still there, but
found il gone.
There were no marks OF forcible entrance
about the house which would indicate that
burglar had got in. 1t is likely that the mys-
terry will be cleared up in few days.
Some epicurean burglars went out on a
foraging tour yesterday morning. and as a
consequence three families awoke 10 find
themselves without bite to eat This stu
alton was discovered in Nos. els and 620
street and COS H street northwest, the iarders
having been looted by the midnight thieves
of turkeys. meats OF all sorts. and vegetables.
Strangely enough, nothing else of value was
taken. the intruders simply contenting them
selves with the eatables.
1t was evident that the thieves had climbed
over the fence and secured the provisions.
which were in easy reach. The robbed
families had a lively time hunting up PROV
ender for the day.

PHYSICIANS IMPOSED UPON.
Well-to-do Merchants and Department
Clerks Vaccinated Free of Charge

Well-to-do Merchants and Department
Clerks Vaccinated Free of Charge.
Several complaints were received by THE
TIMES yesterday that the city physicians had
failed to comply with requests for the vaccina-
tion of children. All of these cases were at
once investigated and in each case it was
found that the applicants who were refused
the charity of the District were children
whose parents were fully able to pay the fee
of so cents charged for those who do not
come within the deserving rule.
During the investigation of these complaints
it was found that there are piles of others on
file at the health office, but so far there has
been no case found where a deserving person
has been excluded from the free service of
vaccination.
The converse, however. is not true because
it has been discovered by two of the physi-
clans. at least, that gross Misrepresentation
have been made in a large number of cases.
These physicians had no time during the
great rush to investigate every case but pre-
ferred to lean toward the side of charity than
to run the risk of turning away deserving
applicant.
Each of these physicians has the names OF
the persons who imposed on him, and among
these are merchants on street and en-
ployes at good salaries in the departments.
One physician, who lives in Southwest Wash
ington, tells a story which he says is an ex-
ample of the sublimity of cheek and gall He
vaccinated colored cook who, he afterward
found, had been sent to him for the purpose
by brother physician of the District Another
physician said that he vaccinated boy, free
of charge, whose father owns a half dozen
houses on fashionable avenue. Cases like
these he said, are not the exception but at
the same time not the rule.

Probable Improvements AT Homestead to

HOMESTEAD, Nov. 1O.-It is rumored here
that when Andrew Carnegie visits Pittsburg
next week he will come to Homestead and
decide upon improvements the Carnegie
Steel Company officers have in contemplation.
Among these is q large works to manufacture
guns for armored vessels.
1t is said that the company will expend
S5O000O upon the plant on receiving the as
surance that it will get the contracts. Chair
man Frick. it is stated, has been to Washing
ton and was encouraged by the talk OF the
powers that be.

DR.. Bartlett gave the congregation a brief
sketch OF his life, his birth at Binghamton,
n. Y. He was educated at Hamilton College
and attendended two universities. He served
as pastor in Brooklyn, Indianapolis and
Chicago, at which latter place he assisted in
the preparations for the great Armour
Institute.
He thanked the officers of the church
for faithful service and the present audi
ence for the evidence of their great love
and affection. He was glad 10 see that
the church here or elsewhere was
only in lis youth. In conclusion he said:
Il am not going to say any formal farewell
especially in this kingdom of love. in that
they never say good night. but good morning.
They never say good by, but all hail, 1 sum
mon you now to stand with me in the
presence of God, in the blessed experience Of
his love. where we can never separate. Death
is not the end of love; it is the beginning Of
eternity. for your hearts shall live forever >
During the closing part OF the sermon a
great many people in the audience were af-
fected to tears, and many after the sermon
crowded around the pastor to say few
words full of feeling and devotion. \ reeep-

the church from to IL O'Clock.
DR.. Bartlett announced that DR.. Patton. of

matter of filing the vacancy caused by the
resignation of the pastor.

EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYE.
Mrs Josephine Shaw Lowell Defends the
Right of the Latter to Voice in
the Formers Business

the Formers Business.
BosroN, Mass, Nov. 1.-THE following
letter from Mrs. Josephine Shaw Lowell to
Miss Frances Willard will be read at the Ma
tional w. C. T. U. convention, which as
sembles at Cleveland. Friday. November 16.
'MY DEAR Miss WILLARD: You ask me to ad-
wise the women of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union how they can best help
the working people. and am very glad to
give you my view of the matter, for l belle We
that they can make themselves as strong a
power for good in this direction as they ha We
in their own special field; but to accomplish
this they must themselves desire justice in the
relations between the employers and en-
ployes, and must create public opinion
which will demand it.
In this country. with rare exceptions, JUS
tice is seldom found IN these relations. At
some times and in some places 1t is the labor
organizations which are dictatorial. while the
employers cringe and relinquish all their
rights TO maintain peace, but more frequently
the employers are arbitrary and tyrannical,
asserting loudly that they intend to manage
their own business as they choose and will
not be interiered with by their workingmen.
Here is the weak point: There will never
be justice between the employers and en-
ployes. consequently there Will never be
lasting peace, until the employers recognize
the claim of the employees to voice in the
settlement of questions relating 10 making
the hours and conditions of labor. All these
questions are of vital Importance to the en-
ployes.
This suggestion, that the employees have a
righ, to voice in what is called their en-
ployers business will be new 10 many, and
will at first seem to be unreasonable. but the
more it is considered. the more just it will
show itself to be, and it will finally be
acknowledged to be true.
