BIG OFFICE BUILDINGS
New York Proceeds Against Them

New York, June 10.-Assistant Corpora
tion Counsel Cosby, in charge of the
bureau for the collection Of penalties, is
proceeding against about forty of the
large Office buildings in this city under
the ordinance forbidding the use of soft
coal. The penalty is $500 for each VIOLA
ton, and where the department Of health
has given notice to stop the use of soft
coal and it is continued contrary to order,
the penalty is $3.50.
''The use of bituminous coal has be-
come general in the CITY," said Captain
osby. 1--WE believe that many people
are taking advantage of the coal strike
as an excuse for burning soft coal. There
are coal regions in Canada, England and

The return of former Minister Wu 10
China recalls to the minds Of numer-
Gus Wilmington people, who became
acquainted with him in Atlantic City,
the past summer, many incidents relat-
Ing to the famous Chinaman. Fore
most among these is the discussion
which took place one morning on the
porch Of the Hotel Chelsea upon Con-
fucianism versus Christianity.
Three people were on the porch when
It began--the Minister, and two young
women, one of whom was a Whining
tcnian. The other had just finished
reading the palm CT Mr. WI, who is
very suparstftlous and suddenly she
asked of him.
"Have you embraced Christianity,
Minister Wu?"
Are you a Christ.an?" he immedi-
ately rejoined.
Somewhat taken aback, the young
woman hesitated for an instant and
then replied tnat she tried to be to the
best of her ability.
Then ensued discussion, which, be-
fore it was concluded, was heard by
nearly everybody at the hotel, and
briefly put. Mr. WI succeeded in floor
ing all his opponents. He contended
that Confucianism is on a higher plane
than Christianity.

good for the sake of reward. Follow

His knowledge of the Bible is mar

would select a phrase, contradictory
to one which he had previously quoted.
But that isn't right objected his
opponents. "You must read the whole
chapter to know its meaning
mot right?" would say the minister.
Not right? Ach, then why should it
be there?"
And so it went. Mr.. WI had an an
swer ready for every argument ad-
vanced by his Christian friends, who
.devoutly wished that some minister or
theological student had appeared to

RAlnRoAps AMI LABoK

There is little use of talking OF the
irrepresible condict between labor and
capital, for long since the people have
concluded that their interests are so
interviewer that amy reduction of the
earnings OF one affects the other.
When workingmen are employed at
remunerative wages, and their inter
ests are protected, investments
of capital are secure and
dividends may be expected.
on the other hand, when capital is
paying dividends, there is a tendency
TO enlarge the industries in which ii is
employed and to increase the number
OF laborers, and possibly to offer
higher wages as an induoement to
workingmen.
But it happens frequently that in
the ondeayor to establish certain en-
terprises on a permanent bass, where
diyidonds Will be assured for many
years a company will pay all of its
earnings fer labor, contenting itself
with the hope that the future will
make all losses good. This is especial
ly true of our railroads. They en-
ploy vast numbers of men. and yet as
a whole they are about the poorest in
vestment that is offered to capital.
In the last few weeks n number Of
great railroad companies like the Wa
bash, the Pennsylvania, the New Jer-
sey Central and the Reading, have
raised the wages of employees by ten
per cent Yet these corporations hava
not Increased their dividends and their
stock has not risen i'm value. "a year
or two since IL was shown that all the
railroads in the country combined,
were paying only little over two per
cent; and many Of them have never
declared a dividend. OF course vast
sums are spent annually i'm new equip
ment, on an extension Of branch lines
and in making permanent improve
ments, yet with many Of them, the
time for the payment of dividends 10
stockholders has never come.
The Pennsylvania road. one Of the
most prosperous in the country, has
added one per cent. to its dividends
but II has increased wages by over foul
per cent, and number of companies
have paid out all their increase il
earnings in higher wages to employees
leaving nothing for stockholders. Thi
