EQUITABLE ACTION TODAY.
Meeting of Directors in New York-No
Peace Signs.

SoSO
On the action taken today in New York
by directors of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Society on the plan to mutualize the
company adopted by the subcommittee of
seven a week ago viii depend the future
status of the war between President James
W. Alexander and Vice President James
H. Hyde.
Should the directors whom Mr.. Hyde has
| put into the company vote with him on the
project to delay the naturalization of the
company for four years by electing only
thirteen of the board of fifty-two directors
a year 1t is the purpose of the adherents of
President Alexander to carry the fight for
actual and immediate naturalization at once
into the open.
Though Mr.. Hyde agreed to the Alexan-
der plan of twenty-eight directors being
elected by the policy holders to twenty four
by the stockholders. many of his friends
would like to see an open split at today S
meeting so that plan could be wiped out.
These men think that Mr.. Hyde surrendered
too much in agreeing to the tWenty-eight-
tWenty-four plan.
Edward H. Hartman, who is in charge
of the Hyde forces, completed yesterday all
of his plans for today's battle. He had a
long conference with Mr.. Hyde, the latter 8
attorney, William c. CULVER. and Senator
Chauncey NJ. Depew. These three men were
in Mr.. Harrimans office at the same time,
shortly before noon.
Arrangements have been made by the
Crimmins committee of policy holders to
proceed without delay through the leglSia-
ture and through the courts, should Mr..
Hyde be able at today's meeting to get a
majority of the directors to back up his
scheme to delay the naturalization of the
company for four years. The committee
now represents over 100000 policy holders
In the Equitable.
While the extreme factionists on both
sides were confident yesterday that there
would be no agreement today the situation
will probably be controlled by the non-fac-
tonists among the directors who are work.

and his handkerchief. They were always
with him. no matter what livery he wore.
After luncheon William said that Miss
Annesley desired to see him in the study.
So James spruced up and duly presented
himself at the study door.
You sent for me, mIss?"-his hat in his
hand. his attitude deferential and at
tentive.
She was engaged upon some fancy
work, the name of which no man knows,
and if he were told could not possibly re-
member for longer than ten minutes. She
laid this on the reading table, stood up
and brushed the threads from the little
two-by-four cambria apron.
James, on Monday night I dropped a
rose on the lawn. (Finds thread on her
sleeve.) In the morning when I looked
for it lbrushes the apron AGAIN. it was
gone. Did you find it?" She made little
ball of the struggling threads and drop
ped 1t into the waste basket. A woman
who has the support of beauty can al
ways force a man to lower his gaze.
James looked at his boots. His heart gave
one great bound toward his throat, then
sank what seemed to be fathoms deep in
his breast. This was a thunderbolt out
of heaven itself Had she seen him, then?
For space he was tempted to utter a
falsehood; but there was that in her eyes
which warned him of the uselessness OF
such an expedient. Yet, to give up that
rose would be like giving up some part of
his being. She repeated the question: 81

do you still possess it?
Yes, miss"
"And why did you pick 1t up?'
1T was fresh and beautiful, and / be-

"And SO you picked it up? Where did you
find it?''
"Outside the bow window, miss

He thought for moment. "In the

o'clock, at night.
81 admit what 1 said was not true miss.
AS you say, 1t was not yet IL" James was
pale. So she had thrown 1t away, confident
that this moment would arrive. This hui
initiation was premeditated. Patience, he
said inwardly; this would be the last OPP
portunity she should have to humiliate him.
Have you the flower on your person?"
Yes. miss

bowed.
VERY well. trust that you will not

coolly resumed her work.
1T is not possible that I shall regret It,"

He bowed again, one corner of his mouth
twisted. Then he took himself of to the
stables. He was certainly in what they
call towering rage.

 The State Department Is unofficially studying the situation in Norway and before long the United States will be urged by Norway to recognize the in dependence of that country. The prob ability is that American recognition will come after recognition by some European country, probably France. The commercial statisticians of the department have just completed spe- cial compilation regarding the popula- tion, comparative resources and indus- tries of both Sweden and Norway, as well as their commerce with the united States and other countries.
 These figures show that sweden ana Norway have a combined area of 2s7,- 0O6 square miles, about equal to that Of Texas and Oklahoma Territory. Their population is 7.4S4,301. practically the same as that of the State of New York. The area of Sweden Is about 40 per cent. more than that of Norway, the territorial extent of the two countries being 172,S76 square miles and l2+,lS0 square miles, respectively.
 Large Loss From Emigration. The population of Sweden Increased between 1893 and 1903 from 4,S24.15o to 5,221.291, or S.2 per cent. while that of Norway grew from 2.os2;lOG to G GSa

These three beautiful groups of stars are almost directly overhead in the early evening and therefore appear far more brilliant than when they are seen near the ground, when their light must pass through hundreds of miles of wet and dusty air before 1t reaches us.
 Just east of Lyra will be seen the milky way, which now spans the entire heavens. passing almost overhead from the south to the north. and lying along this is the beautiful group Cy- guns or the Swan. which is better known as the northern cross.
