MEN DON'T WANT STOCK.
Steel Corporation Employees Say They
Could Not Strike.
TBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSE.l

p,++sbnrs Tan 1-FmpIoyes of the big Home
stead plant of the United States Steel corpora
tion who were asked to-day of the plan of the
company to share its profits with Its workmen
expressed themselves as decidedly opposed 10
the scheme. The Homestead WORKS employ
about seven thousand men, score OF the leaders
of whom were seen, and not of them favored
the move but each condemned 1t. They mac
many objections, one being that under the
nroposition submitted the amount of stock the
majority Of the workmen can buy is limited TO
few shares For instance, according to the
circular 81 900 employe can subscribe TO for
only $3.50 worth of stock; $1,000 employe can
subscribe for $500 and a $500 can subscribe
for $42O worth.
The workmen say that only the department
and general superintendents. who draw large
salaries, will be able to purchase enough STOCK
to make the investment worth the while. Inc
men say that the five years provision Is Vlrtu-
alIv a contract to hold them in the company's
service for that length of time, as no man coulo
afford to quit and lose his stock. They say also
that to accept the plan would destroy their in
dependence in case of dispute, which might
ordinarily bring strike.
c. O. Foster, whose salary is Sl,fo year.
one of the men objectng to the plan, said: / De-
lieve that we can do better by leaF1ng our
money in q savings bank at per cent than oy
putting part of it in steel stock which we will
NOT get for five years. With our money in
savings bank we get it at any time"
Edward Cox, employed for twelve years at
Homestead, said that the Carnegie company
had always shown an interest in its employees,
but he did not think it would be wise for them
to withdraw their money from banks. where it
draws per cent interest, to invest it in stocks
which would be withheld for FIVE years
The majority of the men seen objected to the
publication of their names, but spoke in strong
terms against the scheme. declaring that it was
only clever move on the part Of the corpora
tion to dispose of it's stock and keep the work
men under its thumb. preventing strikes or
other labor troubles :.
The higher officials approve the plan A Z.
Dinkey Superintendent of the Homestead mhs,
and brother-in-law of c. NJ. SchWab, SAID that
he did not think the employees had had time
thoroughly to consider the question john M.
Molamphy who was employed at the Home
stead works for more than thirty years as a
department superintendent. but who was re
tired on q pension some months ago, said that
he thought the proposition was good one ana
would be beneficial to the worknen

BANKS WILL BE OUT

Mayor Parker announced today that
beginning with the new year Topeka
would be able to pay its current ex-
penses without borrowing money from
the banks.
This means that since January II,
1902 Mayor Parker has succeeded III

the city finances.

Parker today. land if the present plan

viii not be necessary to borrow money
from the banks to pay our current obi
cations By cutting down our expenses
and increasing our revenues, the city
has come out about $4,000 ahead this
year.
sThe city viii find when it receives
this years taxes from the county that
it VIII have enough to carry it through
the year. as far as the current expenses
of the city are concerned, and that Is
the only place where we run behind
But il will be necessary to continue az

year. I believe. for my part that TINS

be obliged to call on the banks to help
US pay our current expenses
When asked how the deficit had been
made up, Mayor Parker said.
Mainly by the increased receipts OF
the police department. This department
will pay in during the year about $40,
GOO. The receipts 10r the nonlu OF lie
cember were about $780, For the year
the receipts will average about $4,000 a
month.
IT believe that it will have to be adj
mitted, too. that the joint business in the
city is being handled about as well as il
ever has. There are less than 30 joints
in town. and that IS less than when
