GOULD FACTORY TO MOVE.
Continental Match Plant Nay Be
Taken to Detroit.

New York, Dec. 22.-There is a we'll
defined rumor that Edwin Gould is on
the point of removing his $3.50. 600 match
factory from Passaic. n. J.. to Detroit

A member Of Mr.. Gould's family, while

Gently.
The removal Of such an important
enterprise would be felt in Passaic for
the factory employs 900 persons.
Whether the sentiment would be one
of unnixed sorrow is another question.
residents OF the place make no secret
of their joy at the prospect. The fact
is that many Of Mr. Gouldfs employees
are Huns and Slavss who can neither
read write nor speak English, and they
are. to say the least, unpopular with
neighboring real estate owners.
1t is only within the past few wears
that American labor in the match works
has been displaced by foreigners. The
mill is situated in residence quarter.
On their way to and from work the
wOrkmen destroy lawns and flower
beds, or steal fruit.
Fires too, are frequent in the factory
and create alarm in the minds of those
living near it. The perilous nature Of
the industry and the large number of
wooden buildings about the place make
the danger a very real one and prop
erty owners find it difficult to let houses
in that neighborhood- Only last week
a portion of the factory was burned.
It is said that a large tract of land
factory last week. The superior ad-
Vantages Of proximity to the timber
resources of Michigan are quoted as, the
motive for the change.

GEN. NILES TESTIFIES.
Speaks Bitterly Of scEmbalmed Beef"
Furnished to the Army.

Washington, Dec. 22-GeneraI Nelson
A Miles, commanding the United States
commander Of the American forces at
the capture Of Manila, were the prin-
cipal figures before the war investtga-
ton commission yesterday. General
Miles responded to the summons OF the
committee only after several days con-
sideration- He was accompanied by
his own sTenOgrapher. His examination
was comparatively brief and not SEN
satiOnal- He spoke with some bitter
ness as to the f'embalraed beef and the
canned beef furnished the army in the
field. This he characterized as an ex-
pertinent, for which some one in Wash
ingtOn'' was responsible. He said that
the landing facilities of the Santiago
expedition were Inadequate and that the
men were short Of rations and medicines
and might have been better protected
from exposure tO"fever cOntagi0n-
General Merritt told the commission
that he regarded the Philippine expe-
ditiOn as a decided success and would
conduct 1t on the same lines II he had
il to do over He spoke in high terms
of the troops under him and said his
army was well supplied with medicines
and food
General Miles stated the first plans
for sending troops to Cuba were not his,
as he was opposed to sending troops
there until Cervera's fleet was located
The question at the outset was a naval
pro bleT1. and the dispatch of troops, in
his judgment, then hinged on which fleet
would destroy the other. If the Spanish
had destroyed the United States feet,
the United States would have been
blocked for a number OF years.
If we had a force in Cuba then we
would have lost IL, as it would have
been impossible to get it back from
there" He was opposed also to send
ing large force to places like Havana
or Matanzas, because of the large per
centage of yellow fever deaths there.
He said the destruction Of Cervera's
fleet settled that problem. He said he
wanted to operate with a small force
against the Spanish forces by harass-
ing them during the sickly season, aid
ing the Cubans and not endangerin the
lives Of his own force. He also at first
favored taking Porto Rico to prevent
the Spanish from using that as a base
Of operations

GIRLS IN A FOUNDRY.
Pretty Young Women Taking the
Places.

Elizabeth, N J.. Dec. 22-Pretty
young women doing foundry work is
one of the innovations made by the
management of the WOrthingtOn Pump
company here Their work is such that
they can wear fluffy white caps and
snowy aprons, and the contrast between
their appearance and their dingy sur
rouudings is marked
The men haven't quite made up their
minds how to look on the move, though
they are the sufferers by it. For every
girl taken on a man loses his position,
a s the young women work for s. and
s. a week, while the men had been
grum bling because they were not salts
fed with s. and Sc a week
As most of the former employees were
young men and unmarried, IL has been
proposed TO turn the foundry into
matrimonial bureau, and have every
man marry the girl who Is sent TO take
his place.
The men are delighted with the sug-
gestfon but the girls. haven't been
heard from on that point yet They all
are as Independent as they are pretty.
and. while they wifi work in a foundry
to support themselves. they might not
ike the idea Of working there to sup
port a husband who is out Of a job on
his wedding day
The first time young women ever
worked in foundry in this country
was in New England, where sthe system
was a success at once.
