ONE VAST TRUST.


The conditions in Packingtown have
reached their present state of degrad.
atlon by the natural process of com.
petition or rather, there Is competi-
ton OF labor while there is no competi
tion OF capital. There is but one
vast employing trust and a body of
absolutely unorganized and helpless
types OF human beings are coming
tnere. There has been a regular pro
cession OF the races through Packing
town; the Industry was founded by
skilled cattle butchers from Germany;
then they began the importing of Irish.
men. After the strike Of 1894 they set
TO work deliberately to crowd the labor
market so rs to prevent further trou-

Bohemians, then Lithuanians, and now
finally Slovaks. These are nearly all

them and kick them and spit in their
faces. ! saw sights of this sort which
fairly made my blood boil. saw a
poor, wretched Lithuanian pushing a
truck In one Of Swift & Co.'s cellars;
1t was loaded with hams, and the poor
fellow was scarcely able to stir It on
the level floor. He came to a slight
incline and could not get it up, and the
boss fell upon him and pounded him
out of the place. presume that he

stronger man took his place.
COMPELLED TO VISIT SALOONS.
One of the things pointed out in the
Presidents report Is that the men are
provided with no places to eat. It is
difficult to imagine what this means in
the winter time. saw them crouching

EGYPTIAN EXPLORATION.
Report Giving Insight Into Latest Dis
coverieS.

Cairo, March 21,-M. f. Naville and
c. Il. Currelly have just made joint
report. interesting because it gives an
insight into the latest discoveries
made by the representatives of the
Egypt exploration fund, saying:
"On the north side of a court, over
the Enclosure OF the. old temple, we
have just found remains of a shrine of
the eighteenth dynasty of the great
king. Thothmes III. This building,
made of big blocks of sandstone, did
not cover IL very large area. A first
encouragement was fine statue OF Il
scribe who lived at the end of the
nineteenth dynasty. AS this statue
was quite perfect it seemed to us that
1t could not be alone. In this respect
our hopes We're deceived; we found no
| other statues; but suddenly the re-
mOval Of Il few stones revealed to us q
| chapel covered with sculptures, the
colors of which are absolutely fresh.
1t IS about ten feet long and five feet
wide. The roof is vaulted, painted in
| blue with yellow stars.
"ThiS chapel is dedicated to HathOr.
| The goddess has not left her sanctuary.
In the chapel is a beautiful COW of life
size, in painted limestone, reddish
brown, with black spots. The head,
horns and tanks have evidently been
overl2id with gold. The neck is
| adorned with papyrus stems and flow
| ers, as if she were coming out Of the
water. She is sucking a little boy,
| who is again represented as grown
| man under her neck. The cartouche
| behind the head is that of Amenophs
| II, the son of Thothmes Ill, whose
| sculptures cover the walks. This is
| the first time that Il goddess has been
found undisturbed in her sanctury.
| Besides, no COW has ever been found
4 of such size and superb workmanship.
The modelling of the animal is eX-
! puisite, and the distinctive character
istics Of the Egyptian cattle of the
present day are reproduced"

Futile, but arose from some agreement
between f. 7. futile and the promoters
of the corporation incident to its or
ganization or from benefits conferred
on the corporation and accepted by it
without contract.
In England it has been held in The more
recent cases that, in the absence of n
charter or statutory provision. a contract
made by the promoters of a corporation
on its behalf, before Incorporation. is a
nullity. and that the corporation cannot
ratify or adopt it and thus make it bind
ing upon i: after incorporation, although
an action quasi ex contractu may he
maintained against 1t if it accepts the
benefit of such contract.
A similar view has been taken by tho
supreme court Of Massachusetts,. A more
liberal view is taken by the courts in
contract made by the promoters of n
corporation on its behalf may be ratified
or adopted by the corporation when or
ganized, and that the corporation is then
liable both at law and in equity on the
contract itself and not merely for the
benefits received. The American courts,
however, insist on an express resolution
or some other act by the corporation sub
sequent to organization showing an in
tent to be bound
There has not been ir the case at bar
any resolution or other act of the cor
poraton, or its officers. which recognizes
liability on it's part to L. p. futile or
his wife on account of any agreement
made with them by its incorporators The
act of the corporation, as evidenced by
the vote of the board OF directors. is no
such recognition of liability as would
either create 4 new contract by the cor
poration or the ratification or adoption
of a contract originating with the promot-
ers. By this resolution the note is osten-
sibly given for other purposes, to pay =
liability of the business which it is pur-
chasing. Whatever also may have been
the secret intention of the directors in.
divfdually, they We're unable to give effec'
to it by concealing the character of the
transaction. if there was 4 bona fide
claim, the plaintiff should have seen to il
that the liability of the corporation was
definitely established.
Since at the date of the note there was
no such liability on the part Of the cor
porat;on beyond the s1499 debt of George
A. futile &, Co., which It assumed il
part payment of the business, there was a
partial failure of consideration, and il
was an error to assess the damages at the
full amount of the note.

TORPID THINKER.
The Frequent Result of Coffee Poison
ina.

A Toledo. O., business man says that
for three years he had no appetite for
breakfast; that about once a month he
ate solid food at that meal. generally
contenting himself with his cup of
coffee and having no desire for any
thing else.
Coffee frequently plays this dog-in
the-manger trick; while it furnishes no
nutriment itself, it destroys the appe-
tlte for food which is nutritious. The
result was, in time, a torpid mentality
which was a distinct handicap in his
BUSINESS operations.
Last Christmas" he says, Il con-
suited my brother, a praeticing phys-
clan in Chicago. and he advised a diet
OF sPostum Food Coffee, instead Of the
old kind. and also Grape-Nuts food.

The Postum seems to be no less a
food than the Grape-Nuts, and the two

Boston, March 21.-For ~ hours
without food or water, the captain and
crew of the schooner Abilene of st.
John, n. B., succeeded in surviving
storm and cold of the ocean in dory
until they were picked up Monday by
the fishing schooner, Margaret Dillon.
They were brought here today on the
fisherman and the narrative of the res
cued seamen contains many of the ele-
fnents which serve to construct
thrilling story of hardship. The Ade-
1ene was abandoned last Friday or
Duck Island on the coast of Maine,
waterlogged and without sails. The
crew were rescued so miles off Ftp
ponies bank.
The rescued include: Captain Henry
Smith, St. John, N. B.; Mate Edward

Eevln Sabir, Hampton, n. B.; crew.

Tuesday of last week, bound for New
York. loaded below and above deck
with laths She was a three-maSted
schooner and carried about $4,000 laths
on the deck alone Wednesday was fair.
But about 1 p. NJ, Thursday, snow be-
gan to fall and by night there was
fierce gale which drove the snow be-
fore 1t in sheets. Soon afterwards the
schooner commenced to leak and all
hands had to man the pumps, as well
AS care for the sails. The vessel
strained badly in the gale and the wat
or gained steadily below deck. By A.
M. Friday there were several feet OF
water il the cabin and every set that
struck the schooner appeared to open
up seams i'm the hull. BY L. Nj. the
water in the cabin was breast high and
all the fOod in the galley became wat
er soaked and useless.
While all the men had been at work
below upon the pumps the deck load
OF laths had been washed overheard
and the sails had been blown away
Captain Smith had turned his vesse
seaward as he was only 10 miles Oh
shore, fearing that In the dense snow
