Famous Phrase Applied to Ftnancial
 

Famous Phrase Applied to Financial At Circles.
 In the January Lippincott's there Is an arrestive paper on present-day finance by a well-known capitalist, who hides under the nom dc guerre w. L." in this the author speaks as fol- lows:
 The Investigation of several great life insurance companies has become matter of universal interest, for the revelations point to germane conditions in other financial organizations as well. The public is manifestly amazed by the, to them, astounding abuses of the re- sources of these great corporations to the advantage of those in positions pr trust connected herewith: but do the fnanciers of the age share this sur prise? Probably not, for their intimate association with the sources from which large sums of money are con- stantly derived has fomiIiarized them with the abuses that pervade the financial management of many of our great corporations. This does not tmp~ ly necessarily that funds are stolen, or that the courses adopted must be con- strued as criminal, but, as evinced In the development incidental to the in vestigation of the affairs of the insur- ance companies referred to. the in- terests of the real owners of these great properties nave Decn ulSIeEdEuSu In a shameful manner.
 With a full Knowledge of such facts. the average stockholder does not make the least effort to rectify the evil. Re- gently the writer had discussion with a friend regarding the relative merits of the management of two great rail road companies. and contended that the company in which he was interest was managed with scrupulous honesty. while the company in which his friend had a holding of thousands of shares was conducted notoriously to the ad- vantage of the chiefs of its depart ments. The friend admitted the facts, but said: You have your company managed honestly and have not had dividend for years, while we have never failed to receive dividends aTl- nually. Now I should rather he robbed and get a dividend, than have your honest management and get nothing"
 This one sentence presents the view of very many stockholders; they are satisfied so long as they receive fair return for their investment. and do rot bother themselves about details of .mana anagement-forgetting that some day their neglect may result in loss or even ruin. This "so-long as-Iget share" feeling of contentment on the part of the stockholders helps largely to en- courage carelessness in the conduct of the affairs of all companies.

The disclosure Of his plan has caused
CONSERVATION to Fairbanks. Shaw, Can
non and other aspirants for the presl-
dency. They assume it to be decla-
ration that the secretary OF war mas
given up any idea Of going, on the
Supreme bench and has resolved to stay
in politics with the ultimate Intention
of being a candidate in 1908.
It is a well-known fact that Mr..
Roosevelt desires that Taft should sue
coed him in the White House:
But there is reason to believe that
Mr. Taft at present has no presidential
plans. 1t is known Mr. Roosevelt has
rigidly refrained from attempting to
induce Mr.. Taft to move one way or
the other. The president so recently as
gress told some Of his intimates that
he was glad the problem was Mr..
Taft g and not his own.
To all intents and purposes, the sec
rotary Of war has reached a decision,
at least a tentative one, from which
he will not be easily shaken. That de-
cision is to accept the tender of a place
on the supreme Deucn. ueu uoW W.

to the Philippines next spring. Mr.
Taft is in all probability the most I'M
selfish man in public life. He is per
his work. The matter of public i'm
portance that lies nearest his heart Is
the happiness and welfare. Of the ma
tives Of the Philippines and the future
| prosperity Of the islands. The people
of the islands believe in him and have
for him a sincere affection and regard
When it became apparent that the
tariff measure was not to become law
there were a number Of conferences be-
tween Mr.. Taft and the president. The
whole matter was gone over carefully
1t was agreed that Mr.. Taft should
have his way and continue his fght
next winter for the Philippines anl
that the justiceship should 90 over fo1
the present.
The known facts are that Mr.. Taft
is going to the Philippines because hi
is interested in the future Of the PEG
pie and that he has not yet given hi
consent to become a candidate for thu
presidency, and his decision not to q
on the bench this fall has no politica
significance.

DEBARRED CRITIC LOSES
CASE AGAINST THEATERS
Journal Special Service.

New York, July 14.-The appellate
division Of the supreme court has
dismissed the complaint of James
S. Metcalf, dramatic critic.
against Charles Durham, member Of
the Theater Managers association. for
excluding him from his theater.
The opinion was written by Justice
Houghton, with whom Justices Nc
Laughlin, Loughlin and O'Brien con
cur, while Justice Patterson dissents.
Justice Houghton, after relating that
Burnham and other theatrical managers
had entered into conspiracy to pre-
vent Metcalf from exercising his law
full calling, says that, to constitute a
crime Of conspiracy, there must be a
corrupt agreement between two or more
individuals entered into with criminal
intent to do an unlawful act. The man
ager and proprietor Of theater has
the right to say who shall enter his
place of amusement and who shall not.
This follows that his enterprise is a
private and not public one.
The defendant and his association did
not, therefore, enter into an unlawful
agreement when they agreed that the
complainant should not be admitted to

COMMISSION ACTS
ON NEW RATE LAW
Federal Body Seeks to Employ
Prof. Henry Adams for I'm
portant Work. =. 81
Journal Special Service.

journal Special Service. .-. - i
Washington, July 14.-The interstate
commerce commissioners have taken the
first step toward the enforcement Of the
new rate law. A conference has been
held with Professor Henry Adams of
the University of Michigan, statisti-
clan of the commission, at the end of
which he was asked to enter the en-
ploy of the commission as an expert to
devise the uniform system of book
keeping for all railroads required by
the law. E@
The professor asked for week in
which to consider the matter. There
is no question that he will accept if
he can make satisfactory arrangements
for a leave Of absence from the uni
versity for period of about two years.
May Fix Valuations.
Back Of the intention to engage the
professor is a fact of far greater sig
nifcance than the mere preparation Of
uniform system of accounts. 1t is
to have the work done now SO executed
that it will be of use in fixing a valua-
tion upon all the railroads of the coun-
try so that balance sheet can be pre-
pared which will enable the commits
sion to determine, in a scientific man
ner whether any given rate or prepared
rate is just and reasonable.
President Roosevelt is cognlzant Of
the scheme and, when it is worked out
a little more fully. it is probable he
will approve it. Without such valua-
ton, it is eontended, it is like going
around in a cradle to undertake to fix
rates by having regard for the cap
italization of the railroads.
Estimate Is $1,000, 100000.
Professor Adams more than a year
ago fixed commercial valuation in ex-
cess of 81, 100000, upon the rail
roads Of the country, but that valua-
ton is Of no Importance in the effort
to get what may be reasonable rate.
The uniform system of accounting is
to be so arranged that it will show the
the proportion of expense incurred in
moving it. In that way the just return
of one rate to all other rates, it is be-
ieved, can be ascertained and in only
that way. The rate per ton per mile
statistics put out by the railroads, the
commissioners merely smile at, because
they do not show anything as to the
reasonableness of the rates or the un-
reasona bleness Of them.
Effective July 1, 1907.
The law requires the railroads to
keep their books so that the commission
can ascertain the railroad receipts and
expenditures on account of all kinds OF
traffic but it is silent on the question
of valuation. But, inasmuch as the
commission is authorized to ascertain
what a reasonable rate would be, valu
ations will be fixed upon all roads, in
an unofficial manner, until such time
as congress authorizes the fixing OF
them in the ascertaiaing of rates.
1t is the intention of the commission
to have the new system go into effecet
TIL al
roads to have a fiscal year correspond
ing with that of the government. A
present each railroad is keeping it's &C
counts in it's own way, the only uni
formity that is required being in thu
making of reports to the commission.
