Charles r.. Flint, known as the Faith
err of Trusts. addressed a large meeting
of Illinois manufacturers this week an
defense of consolidated capital. showing
that without it this country could not
compete with foreign nations whose wage
standards are lower than ours. Among
other things he said bearing on the
question of work and trades was the fol-
lowing: =.
The maintenance of the high STAN
lard OF wages now paid In the United
States is absolutely dependent upon our
realizing the advantages whl.n come
through superior organization. We are
today shipping manufactured goods TO
countries where the rate q. wages av-
erage 40 per cent. less than u wage
earners are receiving. Of our exports
of manufactured goods so per cent. are
produced by large industrinal corpora
tons.
ARTICLES of manufacture which we do
not produce through consultations are
being almost entirely supplied to the neu-
trail markets by the cheap labor countries
Germany, Belgium and England. The
Capitalization of manufactu.N and o n
sequent use of special machinery have

American workrnen to the position of
overseer, not of "auper labor, but of its
productive equivalent. machinery. And
he is receiving and is entitled to the
wages of superintendent. The intelli-
gent labor leaders understand this per-
fectly.
1.-THE wage earners of the United States
are today receiving a higher standard
of living and a larger measure of we'll
being than wage earners have ever before
enjoyed IN the history OF the world. They

"The railroad managers have rails and
rolling stock, the miner has mines, the
manufactures has bricks. mortar, and
machinery, and most of them have debts
but the wag earners OF the United
States have on deposit in cash in the saw
ings banks, subject to call, 81, 500, 0GO. O00.'
Mr.. Flint referred to the o~ver-capitali-
cation of Industrial companies, in which,
he said caital stock should not be issueL
in excess of tangible assets. These stocks,
he held, are the legitimate investment of
the wage Garner. and it is careless in
vestment that brings him trouble.

Unusual Phraseology.

With this contention of the company the
attorney says he is unable to agree and
after quoting authorities. he says If Con-
gress intended by the act of 1897 to au-
thcrize the indefinite extension of the wires
of the telephone company, over the streets
and avenues OF the city in, all directions, at
its pleasure. which would, he contends, re-
suit from adopting the construction claimed
by the company. Congress selected most
unusual phraseology to accomplish it's pur-
pose. When the policy of Congress was
changed on the subject of electric conduits.
says the attorney. no such uncertain Ian
guage was used. and in his opinion 1t is
manifest that Congress did not understand
the act Of 1897 meant and was to be con-
strued claimed by the company, for by
an amendment Of the act of 1898 relating
to telephone wires and service proposed
by the Senate that body at least plainly in
dictated that additional legislation was nee
essary upon the subject, and that the Com
missioners were not clothed by the act of
1897 with authority to generally extend the

1T is doubtless true as claimed by the
reator, that the Commissioners would have
granted the application, Notwithstanding
their present denial of the legal right of
the relator to maintain the existing wire
in Columbia road had not they entertained
the opinion that they were without power
to do under existing laws We
are constrained for several reasons to deny
the request for the expression of a positive
opinion In respect of the authority of the

failed in the conference between the House
and the Senate, but the fact remains that
the Senate committee of the District of
Columbia and the Senate deemed legisla-
ton necessary, and undertook to legislate
in order to confer on the Commissioners
this additional authority.

care than on any other municipal subject

if it was its purpose and intention by the
act of 1897 to put the subject at large, it
adopted a most peculiar and unprecedented

ment about the dog, and the owner charged
Mrs. Norbeck's husband with making the
complaint.
IF he did it," said Mrs. Norbeck, Il can't
help it,
Then the fence was put up and Mrs.
Scanlon threw over the top of the structure
a number of presents that her neighbor
had given her when they were on good
terms. Mrs. Scanlon then demanded from
her neighbor 10 cents that the latter owed
her, and endeavored to bring to termina-
ton all their friendly relations. Witnesses
appeared in Judge SCOTS court this morn
ing and related the alleged bad language
used. Mrs. Norbeck was defendant in the
case and she was acquitted.

The Other Case,

The second opinion Of the attorney was
based upon the application of the Chesa-
peake and Potomac Telephone Company
for a permit to string two wires from a
cable pole in square 3s to premises 400
S0th street by way of existing street pole
lines. This application, with others Of a
similar character, the company had been
notified was refused upon the ground that
the Commissioners had been advised by
their attorney that they We're without au-
thority Of law to grant such permits.
In this second opinion the Commissioners
legal adviser, after referring to the act Of
March 3, 1897, calls attention to the fact
that the 31st Of last August he advised
them that it was matter Of very grave
doubt whether any further authority was
conferred by said provision of the act than
to make necessary house connections, and
that every reasonable doubt must by the
settled rule Of statutory construction, be
resolved adversely to the corporation.
Counsel for the company, states the at
torney. has furnished him with a brief
upon the subject, contendtng that the act
in question is to be much more literally
construed, although admitting that the
question is one Of doubt. The company con-
tends that the act was passed in the in
terest of the community at large, for the
purpose of providing additional and In
creased facilities for The use of telephones,
etc. and that therefore the attorneys con-
struction is fnapplicable. II
