The Rev. Dr. Dwight NJ. Seward, "the bishop of the coast" was fond of tell
 ing of clergyman who spent his sum- mers in the Adirondacks In settle ment at the southern end of Saranac lake. The clergyman cultivated the genial habit to a degree and would dis pense greetings to every one as he walked along the street. The simple country folk could not quite under stand the good mans cordiality. On one occasion he had bowed most hearti- ly to a noted barroom character of the town, who was plainly much surprised by the attention. He watched the re- treating figure of the clergyman in a troubled way. Finally he turned to a group of friends and said, "Now, where in blazes have I met that manT'-New York Tribune. -..,

THIRTY OUT OF rHRrY-sx MEMBERS MEET
Plans with Alternatives Are Proposed
for the PeaceabIe Settlement of
CapitaI-LabOr COntrO-
versies,

NEW YORK. Feb. 19.-The FIRST meeting
OF the executive committee OF thirty-six,
appointed through the National Civic Fede-
ration to arbltrste labor troubles. was held
here today, with Senator Hanna in the
chair. The object Of the gathering was TO
receive a report on a working plan by
means Of which strikes. lockouts and other
forms OF disputes between capitalists and
the laboring class may be settled.
This plan was presented by a subcommit-
tee In the form OF a set OF bylaws, which
provide that the chairman Of the executive
committee OF the federation shall appoint a
committee on Cancellation to consist Of nine
members. three Of whom shall be selected
from each group OF the executive commit
tee. representing capital, labor and the
general public, whose duty It shall be at
the request OF the chairman, upon informa-
ton Of a threatened strike or lockout OF
more than local magnitude, TO use its good
ofices in restoring harmonious relations, re-
porting its action to the executive commit
tee.
PrOvide an Alternative.
Should the efforts OF the Cancellation COM
mittee prove ineffective and should both
parties to the dispute desire the service OF
the executive committee, they may be
directed to secure two employers and two
wage-earners from the executive committee
to serve as an arbitration board. Should
these fail to appoint an umpire to finally
settle the dispute they may select q nth
member from the division representing the
public. -
Should a controversy seem Of such mag
nitude as to justify such action the officers
OF the executive committee shall be au-
thorized to call a meeting of the entire
executive committee to consider the ques-
ton and to take such action as may in its
Judgment be required.
The executive committee may appoint
local committees TO deal with local disturb
ances, the rules governing the same to be
In harmony with the general purpose Of the
Industrial department.
Delighted with Results.
At the close of the meeting Senator
Hanna said:
The meeting was very satisfactory.
