Germ has done business with its en-
ployees without the slightest interfer-
ence from persons who for various rea-
sons had quit work. Our pay roll con-
tains the names-of four thousand men,
and these represent probably twenty
thousand people. In season and out
we have given fairly steady employ
ment, and while other industrial dis
tricts in the city have shown signs of
financial distress among the laboring
classes, entailing municipal and chart
table assistance, this locality has been
self-supporting. Our employees have
built and bought homes; their families
have been comfortably clad and well
fed without asking outside aid.
We do not propose at this late day to
be molested by outside influence. The
course We have determined to pursue is
dictated because of our belief in the
broad principle that every employer of
labor is more competent to Judge of the
conditions incident to his affairs than
an outsider.
We have no grievance against our
men, and have never refused to talk
with them as individuals upon questions
about which there might be difference
of opinion. We adhere to that policy
today, and every man who feels that he
is wronged is accorded the privilege of
a respectful hearing. On the other
hand, we vigorously protest against or
ganized outside interference, and we
shall at all times maintain the rights
guaranteed to us by the laws of the
land

There were reports yesterday that
the capital OF the Telephone, Telegraph

fixed at $50, 600 600, would before long
be increased to 800, 600 900, and that the
company would also issue 500 900, OOO
bonds These rumors could not be con-
firmed, however, and the general inn
preston was that the figures would be
found to be good deal too large. The
officers of the new corporation yester-
day declined to make public for the
present the names of the companies
which have gone into the consolidation.
No new long distance telephone prof.
ect, il is assumed downtown, can be
reduced to operation without the in
cusion of a company covering New

CRAMP STRIKERS
ARE ARRESTED.
President of the Company Makes State
ment Regarding. the Present Labor
Troubles Have Done Business for
20 Years Without Interference.

Philadelphia, Nov. 11.-Three of the
striking employees of Cramps ship
yard, and John ]. Keegan, business
agent of the International Association
of Machinists, and Frederick Counsel
man, treasurer of the machinists' or
ganization, have been arrested and held
in $4,000 ban each, charged with melting
TO riot. The strikers under arrest are
Hugh BOYD, Thomas Wilson and Joseph
Melon.
The Direct cause of the arrests was
the refusal of the men to move away
from the vicinity of the shipyard when
ordered to do SO by the police. The
strikers assert that this move is made
to offset the impending arrest Of a
Cramp superintendent, for whom a war
rant was issued last Tuesday. Later in
the daythe yard superintendent, Harry
Null, for whom a warrant was issued
several days ago by Hugh Boyd, sur
rendered himself. and was held in $500
bail for court. Mr. Null was charged
with assaulting Boyd.
Charles H. Cfamp. president of the
company, when discussing the situation
today said: o4a I'd bat
we are extremely sorry for the turn
affairs aave taken, resulting in the ar
rest of these men. Some of them have

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, Nov. 11.-Today's bank
statement proved rather worse than the
estimates had foretold. Some san
guine persons had proposed that the
cash losses would be offset by the long
contraction as high as $12,OOO000 In
stead of that, the decrease in loans
reached $I151, 000 AS this only re-
duced the reserve requirements to the
extent of 50, 766, 800, the cash losses have
resulted in increasing the deficit below
the legal requirement to $2,7SS, $50. It
was not to be expected that so formid-
able an encroachment on the already
depleted reserves of the banks should
be without effect, and prices gave way
all around
The losses in the railroad list were
strikingly small, in spite Of a large vol
ume of dealings. This department Of
fered stubborn resistance to the pres
sure and there were evidently heavy
buying orders being executed. In the
specialties, especially those recently in
active speculation, the losses were more
severe. In Sugar, the coalers, local
Traction stocks, especially Manhattan,
Tobacco and Tennessee Coal, there were
VIDE breaches in price. Even in these,
the bears We're eager to cover at the
decline, and some sharp rallies We're
achieved. AS loans made on Friday

til Monday, the days money market
was nominal. There was a lively an
ticipation of Mondays money market
forced by actual calling of loans Yes
terday's large calling of loans was not
fully reflected in the statement, so that
the actual condition of the banks may
be slightly better than indicated. But
the course of the money movement
makes the necessity of further loan con-
traction a practical certainty.
The foreign exchange market, like the
money market, is also wholly nominal

comparisons are shown not only for the

for Nov II, just out, contains a record
of the earnings of 68 roads for the first
quarter of the present fiscal year, from
which it appears that the gross earn

ter of 1898 by over $50, 400. 900.

The Boston and Albany exhibit for

probably the largest quarterly earnings
ever reported. The expenses increased
nearly 100000. The charges also. in

the stockholders was $4,000 less than
the previous year; still, the best meas
ure of Boston and Albany earnings is
always in it's gross exhibit, for the
road avoids Improbable business, and
charges nearly everything to expenses.
One thing is absolutely certain, that
the people who hold on through this
money scare will surely win big profits.
The Boston correspondent of the New
York Daily Stakeholder understands
that the great problem now be-
fore the Chicago, Burlington and Quin-
cy management is how to get the
money that the road is now earning
to the stockholders without inviting
legislative attacks.

.PyGracious Man!

A poor but worthy young man felt the
chill of winter enter his bones and
stopped in one of the minor clothing
stores Of this city to invest in an over
coat. He wanted something good but not
too expensive. The shrewd old proprietor
of this establishment showed him one
coat after another. and the young man
at last decided upon one, which he took
to the light for closer inspection. There
were numerous little holes revealed, and
the young man said:
Look here, this overcoat's got moths
in it."
"Py gracious, man! Vat you egspect to
find in a fiYe-dollar overcoat-canary
birds?"
Now. what we want to know is.

STOCK MARKET HEAVY.

OF the average advance of S. in lead
ing Wall street stocks during October,
SO has been shaken out this last week.
81 of it in the two hours of trading
yesterday.
The money market pinch has become
very real factor; speculative energy
has veered completely around; the
great business expansion of the country
no longer is used wherewith to eonjure;
the manipulation of Leather and other
fancies ceases, and everybody talks
about the money market. The New
York clearing house banks, with $780,
100000 less deposits than a year ago,
have the same total of outstanding
loans their lawful money reserve is
$250O0,000 less than a year ago, while
they are nearly three millions under
the legal reserve requirements against
a surplus of $15,000,000 last year at this
time, and an average surplus at this
date in the last four years of 500, 900, 900.
Today's weekly bank statement bore
out the unfavorable expectations in a
loss of 81 100000 more in deposits and
of $5,00Q,0 900 in reserve held, of which
one-half counts as decreased surplus re-
serve, OF increased deficit, for that is
what it is.

heaviness, notably Manhattan, which
dropped over point, and Brooklyn
Transit almost as much.
Prices broke after II O'clock, and rail-
led before the bank statement. Tennes-
see Coal yielded 6%. There were free
offerings, brought out by the bank
statement, but declines were not severe
in the railroad list. In Manhattan, Su-
gar, the Coalers, Tobacco, Metropolitan
and Leather there was marked weak
ness, the extreme losses ranging from
2 to points. The covering by the
bears caused some sharp rallies. The
closing was quiet and steady, at small
net losses, except in the specialties.
The market was very irregular hide
pendent movements of Importance oc-
Cured in leading stocks. Railways,
with but few exceptions, were ad
vanced, but the local group, the Read
ings and some of the metal issue sagged
sharply. In the industrial division, Su-

strongly, but Peoples Gas and Tobacco
fell away Toward II o'clock there was
a sharp rally in the traction stocks, and
conspicuous buying of the grangers,
but prices were not well held.

Edward, Crosby & CO.'S Boston letter.

Boston, Nov. H. - The wheat market
was a dull and uninteresting affair this
week. There was an entire lack of out
side speculative demand, which, together
with the light demand for cash and ex-
port wheat resulted in a decline of nearly
Be. per bush4. There was some buying
by shorts, which temporarily arrested the
decline in prices, but the only time that
the market displayed any strength was
on election day, when the Chicago market
advanced nearly a cent a bushel on re-
ports of strained relations between Japan
and Russia; these reports, however, failed
TO have any lasting impression on values
Determined efforts We're made to advance
prices by some holders of large lines of
long wheat, all of which failed, however
Near the close of the week prices sus-
tanned further losses on account of large
Argentine shipments. and the only en-
couraging feature of the weeks trading
was the disposition of exporters to buy
on the scale down. The market today
was dull and made a new low record, and
though sentiment among the professional
element was bearish yet the more CON
sentative ones seemed inclined to regard
the present level as near the bottom
