SAYS MERGER IS NOT oNE-sIDED.
MIR. Isham Replies to Question Regarding
Society of American Artists.

Regarding the proposed merger Of the National
Academy of Design and the Society Of Ameri-
can Artists, the following letter of inquiry ap-
peared in yesterdays Tribune:
In an article in The Tribune of January re-
garding the proposed union of the two art so
cieties MI Isham states that the National
Academy Of Design has $750,000. VIII he also
kindly enlighten the public as to the exact fnano
cial standing of the Society Of American Artists!
Mr.. Isham last night made this reply:
The Society of American Artists has no funds
at all commensurate with those Of the Academy
of Design We have a few thousands in bank,
however and in q way are in good condition
as the academy. We possess rights in the
American Fine Arts Society Building, in West
h7th-st on which could not realize very
much money If we wanted to sell out, we are
limited by certain conditions, vet they give us
all the quarters the society needs for its rooms
and the conduct of its business.
We also have,a suitable gallery probably the
best gallery In New-York for a picture exhibi-
lion at a time Of the year when we want IT,
and for as long as we want it The Academy of
Design in spite of its wealth. is obliged to lease
the same gallery al time which is probably
not so convenient to the academy

last night If the Rapid Transit Commission ex-
pected more than bidder for the sub
ways, he said:
have been told by responsible people that there
will be more than one bidder for the subways
and I believe the information correct.
An Interborough official said yesterday that
Mr.. Belmont was prepared TO build sub
ways with his own money. He added:
When Mr. Belmont made his original subway prop
ositon he assumed that the Rapid Transit Commits
sion would grant him extensions of routes or new
which would enable him to increase the earn
ing power OF the present system. thus warranting
the large outlay involved in building tunnels. He is
of the same mind still It is doubtful however. If he
would undertake build a route which present
appearances indicate would not pay handsomely.
The Rapid Transit Commission seems to De IN
clined to make Mr.. Belmont build the Flat6ush eH-
tension of the tunnel just It wants, and not as
he would like to have it. There is doubt about his
building down that way at all unless the co1nmls-
sion meets him half way. and gives him approx
mately what he asks for. Why should he? His
extension to the Long Island Railroad station "a. az
F1atbush and 4th ayes. will give him all the trac
he handle, the traffic from Long Island rs
going 20 be enormous. Why should he go to me
expense of building subways just TO nave a os

HELLO GIRLS STRIKE:
Asked to Be Recognized as Freedom
Americans ard Not as Slaves.

Three hundred and fifty telephone
girls employed in the central ex-
change of the Chicago Telephone
Company struck on Thursday.
Seven thousand telephones in the
business district were put out of
service. The cause of the strike
was an order issued by the company
directing the girls at sscentral', to
enter the building through rear
door, III order to reach which thew
were compelled to go through
passageway 10 feet long. The girls
declared that the passageway is
muddy even in the daytime, and
dark, Shiny and slippery at night.
There are three saloon entrances
on the alley, and girls declared
that they are annoyed by the hang
ers-on of these places. a. demand
that the order relating to the rear
door be changed was refused by the
company and the girls quit work.
