any time in the history of the world, are growing greater with ever year. My advice to you who have families is to join your union and be always a force for eonservatism.'
 President Mellen said he had seen much to deplore in the course of those in authority who have had dealings with unions. and he desired to go on record that arbitrary, unreasonable ex- ercise of power by those temporarily in authority is as offensive to himself as to the working man, and he was dis posed to neither countenance nor con- done it. He said: The management of all business is comparative. One can not get for a thing more than it is worth. Some gentlemen interested in high finance are just beginning to realize this. with business falling off day by day here in New England I find my political friends opposing an en- largement of our markets and prefer ring a phrase Stand pat to the sub stance reciprocity with our neighbor Canada will give us.
 T would like to pay the men of our company better wages. and allow them greater privileges than my neighbors but if I do it some one else will take my place who will bring about an equitable comparison. If our employees could only know the struggle it has been for the past few months to keep so many of them at work at all they would feel that our officials have had their interests in mind much more than they are willing to admit. No man is more worried over the tendency of modern business development than my self. I regret the passing of the small proprietor, banker, merchant, small manufacturer. believe the progress of our country has been largely due to him. It is with apprehension I see him disappear and become a part of the modern industrial machinery
 President Mellen said that he never worked for so many bosses" as at the present time. and that it was peg gif1g'' all the time to keep his property strong enough for the benefit of the public, it's stockholders, its employees with little advantage to himself.
 In conclusion he urged the working men to make their homes better, more attractive and their own influence felt among their fellow laborers, to the end that they may make the world a better place to live in.

Lfstlcss Drifting, to Which 1t is Becom-
 ing Accustomed, Again Noticed.


 New York, April 2S.-The listless drifting to which the stock market is i becoming accustomed was again nota- bly in evidence to-day. The board room was practically idle during the latter part of the day. With money to be had
 on almost nominal terms, there is no pressure on anybody to sell stocks to irealize cash. The consequence is the deadlock and the deep lethargy of in vesting capital. Indications are that the outgo of gold will continue on a heavy scale, as supplies here are redundant
 and Paris is calling home her capital from all available quarters. The ster- ling rate at Paris sank to 25 francs 10 centimes to-day, thus widening the
 margin of profit on gold shipments from New York, in spite of an easier ten- dency of sterling here. The payment of the $10,000,000 to the Panama govern
 ment was also announced from Wash | ington. But no effect was produced in the local money market. Yet the mar
 ket it obviously sensitive to the offering of any fresh claims on capital re- sources, such. as the intended issue by the Norfolk and Western of S35, 900, ,000 of bonds reported to-day. This an- nouncement cost the stock a point in
 the price, although it was stated that the present sale of the bonds is not
 contemplated. Projected capital issues are known to be large, including the funding of much of the temporary note issues now outstanding for railroad companies. The formidable decrease of $67S, 900 in Fries net earnings for March bringing the decline for the nine months
