Wanted Too Much

The late L. NJ. Reed was vice-pres!.
dent OF the New York, New Haven
and Hartford railroad in the palmy
days when that road was paying 10
per cent dividends. Reed was a close
buyer and used all the arts and sub
tleties necessary TO hammer prices
down TO their lowest figure. One day
be was negotiating for an improve.
ment in the way of a locomotive ap.
pliance, and after wrangling for some
time over the price said to the sales
agent:
How muca will your concern make
on this transaction?' To which the
reply came. Ten per cent"
Great Scott" said Reed, you want
to get 10 per cent profit on this one
sale, do you? Why, bless your soul, il
takes our road whole year TO make

TESTIMONY AS TO SUBSIDY.
From the Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald
 Tjard Schwartz, a German naval con- structor, has just completed an investi- gation of the character and cost of ship building in this country, of which he has made report in the German empire He says in it that the materials for the con struction of steel ships are cheaper here than in any other country. He adds that the American workmen are the best in the world, and that their wages are from 30 to 50 per cent higher than those re- ceived in Great Britain, and 100 per cent higher than Germany pays. Herr Schwartz does not dwell so much upon the superiority of this labor in lessening the cost of ship building here as he might, but he declares that the better quality of our machinery goes far to counterbalance the increased wage bills paid in our foundries. He is sure, what ever may be the cause, that ships are built here as cheaply as they are in Eu- rope. and thus affords added evidence of the wrong in paying those who own our shipyards a bounty out of the funds of the nation for ship production.

NO VALUE IN MISSISSIPPI.

From the Vicksburg Herald.
 The Supreme Court of the State holds that dog is not of pecuniary value, and therefore, when he Is killed by the rail- road the owner Is not entitled to recover damages. The case which brought forth this interesting staHment from the court was that of w. R. Holiday vs the Mo- bile and Ohio Railroad. Holiday lived at Prairie Station, on that road, and owned dog of uncertain breed which one day strayed from it's home, got on the right of way of the defendant company and was run over by freight train. Holiday brought suit in the lower court and ob- tained judgment against the road in the sum of s1o0 The Supreme Court reversed the case. Justice Calhoun, in delivering the opinion of the court, said that dog was an agile creature and that 1t could get out of the way of railroad train: and then the court held. besides, that the majority of dogs had no pecuniary value whatever. The court held that dogs could not be allowed to interfere with the ar teries of commerce and that the man was not entitled to recover.
