of the diamond as a beacon light guild is no distinction between employer and employe. He spoke Of the honor which he felt in having this expression of the esteem and confidence Of the men, and said that it has and ever will be his effort never to betray the confidence which the men had placed in aim.
 He spoke of his past relations with the officials of the company when he met them in the big yellow building. % and though he had been there month in and month out, and even day in and day out for the past eight years, he had never yet been turned from the door of the office. One time he bore in his pocket a vote of the men to strike, and tie the road up, but he had not taken it out of his pocket. because he had in mind not only the condition of the men, the officials of the company. but he had a third party, and that was the members of the community and the general public which would be affected if strike occurred. He said that he would accept the ring and wear it also as a memento of the wedding of the company and the Brotherhood of Loco motive Bremen. He said that they had been more conservative than some of the other bodies in that they had never demanded, but had simply always requested" He was sure that justice would always be done and that as long as the requests of the men were in keeping with the law and good govern ment they would be needed. This he believed was strengthened because the officials had expressed themselves of their proper attitude by meeting in an humble attic Concluding, he said that he was sure the general officers would never be unjust and that their grievances would always be pleasantly considered.
 Following this came three rousing cheers for MT. Kelly, and he was the re- cipient of many congratulations by those present.

 Tn the morality of undigested cor
 porate responsibilities lies some of the most serious Christian responsibilities of our best men. The interests involv- ed are complex, and personal responsi- bility has some limits Men are put Unto directorates to represent interests of others. Nevertheless, directorate's responsibility is not only to stockhold- CTS, but to the whole community, for honest and honorable conduct of the lcompany's affairs. Upon honorable men in such situations the seriousness of their position lies often like a great burden.

INCREASED POLICE PROTECTION

In the Outlying Localities Needing it.
 Special Details
 Recent assaults on defenseless women in the Prospect Hill district. so-called, has led to renewed police activity un- der what might be called orders from Mayor Studley, and the mayor has di- rected Chief Wrinn to detail the detee- tives and sergeant detectives to do duty in the suburbs of the city, in plain clothes, to watch for men of the stamp who made the assaults on Humphrey street a few days ago and on Prospect Hill one month ago.
 Moreover, the mayor directed that three or four supernumerary policemen should be employed for an indefinite period to patrol localities not now cov- cred for want of men, and also to take three or four regular day policemen off their day beats and put them on night beats so as to cover the unprotected ground.
 The detectives and extra police will be on constant watch for the man or men who are attacking women, and Mayor Studley seems to think that one iiisiIl IS IeSpOASiDie 1oi enc lNo SAiiiAOS' The mayor and the police department are determined to catch the ruffian, and from present reports there is reason to believe that the police hold a clue which will lead to him.
 On Saturday afternoon three Yale professors had a conference with Chief Wrinn and President Thompson, of the police board. in police headquarters. The Yale men demanded extra protec- tion in their neighborhood, so authen- tic reports say, and the orders from the mayor are a consequence of their visit.
 It is likely that at the next meeting of the board of finance the question of increasing the police force of the city will be brought up and considered

DisIionestly Acquired afoney--Can Ben efcent Use of 1t Ever Remove the Faint Even if Church or College is the Beneficiary Thereof.

Faint Even if Church or College is the Beneficiary Thereof.
 Before a large congregation yester- day morning in Center church Rev. Dr. Newman Smyth delivered a sermon in which he dealt with questions of pecu- liar personal import. Dr. Smyth said, in part:
 There is danger that one may be partaker of ahother's sin in the pos
 session and of rentals of real estate. Our statutes recognize this moral peril. Honorable men and women are often deceived--women especially - through their agents, and are led to permit the use of their property for unhallowed purposes, unwittingly. Property so used is, in some instances, owned by women who would rather have seen it burned.
 But some of it is held by gentlemen who have no Christian right to be so
 innocent--men who owe it to them selves and to the community to inves-
 tigate. Can the owner plead that what
 his agent has done. perhaps feeced the 
 innocent and robbed the poor. is none
 of his business. Would he make that
 excuse to the Son of Man? Men may participate in other mems
 sins in ordinary business customs and
 methods. Many such practices are on
 the border line and incapable of moral
 justification. The question is often mo-
 mentous for the business man pressed
 by keen competition.
 Another problem is whether benefi- cent use of it can disinfect dishonorably acquired money. Moral perplexity arises from the difficulty of distinguish
 ing between money honestly earned
 and morally-tainted money that is prof. fered to institutions. Vespasian, the Roman emperor, said that he never
 smelled of money he received. But a
