Opinion in the Injunction Case.

Shelbyyille, Ind, July s. Judge
Douglass Morris handed down an Opin-
ion in the injunction case brought by the
Chas. Karmier Manufacturing Company,
against union men. In so doing, he
sustains the temporary injunction against
- laborers and dissolves the injunction
as to all the others. The decision is
confined to wilfully malicious acts. In
the opinion Judge Morris said in part ::
THE plaintiff is entitled to relief but
not to all prayed for. The complainant
prays for an injunction against picketing.
Picketing is of recent origin, and may be
lawful or unlawful, according to its char
acter. Laboring men have the right to
organize for the purpose of securing
higher wages, shorter hours, or improv-
ing their condition. If member of a
labor organization with such objects in
view, without malice or resorting to vio-
lence or intimidation persuades employees
by peaceable appeals, to leave theservice
of their employer for the real or honest
ly supposed benefit of the organization,
and thus incidentally interferes with his
employers business, such acts are not
unlawful -

Those who have bad no practical ex-
perience in the use of liquid fuel are
often surprised at the eIaborateness
of some of the methods employed to
secure efficient combustion of the oil.
One of the latest is the Orde system,
which is employed for steamships.
First, the oil must be freed, as per-
fectly as possible, from water. This
is done by preliminary settling in a
tank. From the tank the oil is pumped,
under a pressure of go pounds to the
inch, into the burners. On its way
it is heated to a temperature just be-
low its boiling point, and then, on
emerging from the inner tube of the
burner, it is met by steam and airheat-
ed to 600 degrees, or more, and thus is
entirely converted into yapor. In this
form it is sprayed into the fame and
consumed.

Der. He handles his larger share with
out proportional increase of expenses.
1t is a mistake to suppose that spec
ulation has been unusually active for
the past few years, as compared with
past epOchs. In 1881, 141, 81 ,243 shares
were dealt in on change. Ten years
later, in 1891, only 60.031 $50 were sold.
The 265, 944, $50 shares sold in 1901 were
actually less in proportion to the
amount of outstanding securities and
to the wealth of the country than the
sales of 20 years earlier. Sales last
year dropped to 1S6, 9O3, 942; this year
they bid fair to run somewhere be-
tween the 1901 and 1902 totals. They
may drop again sensationally.
On the New York market a share al
ways means $500 par. "Buy 100 Penn
sylvania" means buy 200 shares, of
nominal value of $50 each. Hence the
1901 transactions represented the enor-
nous total of $26, 1914, 465, 900 worth of
securities changing hands.
Neither you nor / nor j. p. Morgan
can form any conception of 26,OOO,0OO,
900. We have to split it up to get the
notion.
There are 8O,O0O,OOO people in the
country. This single exchange in a
single city, which does not include
the curb brokers. nor the CONSOLE
dated exchange, nor the produce ex-
change nor Brooklyn and suburban
dealers, actually sold year before
last $1,625 worth of stocks for every
family of five persons in the United
States. Every dollar of that stock is
supposed to represent railroad cars
and stations, gas pipes, ships, things
that men have made. Add the other
exchanges in New. York, add the
other cities, add dealings in London
in American securities, and you get
picture of the amount of specula-
ton based upon American values.
. The broker gets an eighth of
cent for selling a dollars worth of
stock, which seems cheap enough.
But on the business of this one

missions alone amounted to S23,243,-

commissions.

shadow OF the white house it has been
decided that the wedding shall be
celebrated, not at the capital, but in a
thriving manufacturing city where
the brides father made his fortune.
The ostensibe reason for this is n
sentimental regard for the old home.
The real reason is that the newly
rich are still struggling to break into
the exclusive set in Washington So
ciety and have not yet succeeded.
They prefer therefore to make their
matrimonial splurge and celebrate
the capture of an English title in a
place where such events are rare and
where their money will show for all
it is worth.
After another season or two in
Washington the rough edges will be
worn off, the exclusive set" will have
had its arms pried open and our
family of climbers will have arrived,
prepared to greet all future aspi-
rants for social recognition with a
stony stare.
That is always the way. Hardly
a season passes that does not witness
the absorption of at least one family
of so-caIled "parvenues" by the COM
posite thing known as Washington
society, but it always takes a season
or two to complete the amalgama-
ton.
Washington is now the Mecca for
the newly rich. 1t has fey sup

TIC, the entefprlS-
ing that we have now in the city
these new professions for women:
1. The public charity diatetician.
She is a sensible young woman train
ed in the art and science of cooking
and the nutritive values of food; it
is her business to oversee the provid-
ing and the cooking for charity
patients in free hospitals, for pris-
oners, for old men and women, aSy-
lum children, etc, many thousands
in all. She saves the city money,
she makes life tolerable for all these
people.
2. The school nurse - OF these
young women there are a number.
They operate in the poor quarters,
visiting where pupils have been sent
home from school for illness. They
tell mothers how to care for the lit
tie ones so that they can get back to
school sooner.
3. The babies hospital nurse-She
looks after children not big enough
to go to school. Tells about baths,
sterilizing milk, and all the rest.
She helps nightly to keep the death
rate down to little more than half
what it was a generation ago.
Grace suicide" in this city? There
was in 1867. There isn't now. Then
more deaths than births occurred in
New York. Last year there were 20,-
600 more births than deaths.
4. The social secretary, who looks
after girls in the big shops-but she is
an old story by this time. The first one
was appointed almost three years ago,
and there are more than so now.
School Fairgrounds on roofs, the va
cation school at Coney Island-that's
surely new, for it's to be opened the
coming summer-better streets, i'm
proved tenements-there are things
that New York does well and un-
selfshly.

SnOulu ever come
that Lees statue is placed in the
capitol it is safe to say that it will
find a statue of John Brown. of Os-
sawOtamie. close at hand. Indeed. if
would not be strange if the agitation
about the Lee statue should decide
the question for old John Brown
whether or no. The proposal has al
ready been made by Congressman
Lacey, of Iowa. and it is the sort of
a suggestion which, when once made.
will not easily die out of memory.
1t is rather odd that no state has
vet contributed to Statuary hall a
monument to any of the men who
owe their fame to service in the civil
war or to the anti-slavery agitation.
But such is the fact The tendency
has been for each state to 60 farther
back to the early days which are no
longer the subject of serious contro-
versy. John Winthrop, Samuel
Adams, Charles Carroll, of Carrollton.
John Hanson, of Maryland, Mullen
burg, Marquette, are samples Of the
character which are immortalized in
the chamber of the old house of rem
resentatives.
Each state is supposed to name its
two most distinguished sons, but the
result is collection some of the
members of which need an introduc-
ton to the ordinary sight-seer of
this generation. Robert z. Lee and
John Brown would at least be uni
versally known.
