effect the same conditions which You,
yourselves, are about to precipitate.
Then turning to Mr.. Rogers as if he
thought thai he had organized this
movement, the president said; IF you
will not operate the factories, the rail-
reads and the various tools of COM
n cree, then the people will take your
properties and operate them on their
own account. You are playing into the
hands of the socialists.
Mr.. Rogers replied as quietly as if
he were talking with Mark Twain on
his yacht that the capitalists had
formed a trades union Of their own
and asked Mr.. Vanderlip to show the
president the roll of membership. The
vice-president of the National City
hank unrolled long list of names and
explained that in addition to employ
ing capitalists the roll included the
great mass of high class labor such as
executive heads of departments, ex-
perts, scientists, ETC., who preferred to
throw their lot and portion with the
employing capitalists. Mr.. Rogers
wanted to know whether the people
could run the properties if they took
them"
President Roosevelt looked from
face to face in the circle of fnanciers
surrounding him much in the same
way that prisoner at the bar gazes at
the faces of the jurymen who are to
decide his fate He saw nothing there
but stern, unrelenting resolve.
1.-THE fact is" said Mr.. Belmont, in
terpreting the presidents look as an
appeal, I'VE have reckoned all the cost
and have decided on our course. We
have the utmost respect for you and
all that you have done for the square
deal, but we must protect ourselves
the best we can. AS president of the
National Civic Federation I am a be-
lever In both organized labor and or
ganized capital, but the two must
work together or not at all. Labor
has got to the point where 1t believes
that it can go alone. Let it try for a
while"
There was much further talk but
without any other result, and the con-
| ference broke up in great confusion,
the President not even saying good
night to his callers.
Long past midnight the lights We're
burning In the cabinet room where the
President and is advisers were laborlng
on a plan to avert the catastrophe

MEnLEN is FIFTY-sIX.
Celebrated Birthday Quietly at Stock
bridge Home.

President Charles Sanger Mellen Of
the New Haven road yesterday cele-
brated his fifty-sixth birthday at his
summer home in stockbridge, Mass.
The day was quietly spent by the head
of the big systeRl.
Mr.. Mellen was born in Lowell,
Mass, August 16, 1851, and his varied
railroad experience began with a job
as a clerk in the Office of the cashier
of the Northern New Hampshire rail-
Dad. He was eighteen years old when
he took this place, and while he has
been connected with railroads east and
west, in the humblest and highest po-
sitions, he is still in the game and at
the head of one OF the best railroads
in the country.

THE METALLIC AGE NOW.

Truly this is the age Of metals. The
four standard metals, gold, silver. cop
per, and steel, may be said 10 form the
cornerstone Of the worldwide business
structure. IN the Western nations. gold
Is the basis OF monetary credit. In the
East on the Asiatic continent espe-
ciaIIy. and in most OF Latin-Anerica,
silver is still the foundation on which
money values rest These two together
form the monetary basis OF the modern
business world The other side OF bust
ness is machinery, and IN the mechan-
ism OF the market, copper and steel
have mere TO do with our life than any
ether two metals, Take copper from
the worl1 and tho Hight Of cities. towns,
and villages goes out. Take steel away
and the highways of traffic and travel
are thrust back into antiquity. Posi-
bly,, after all, the greatest of these four
is the youngest OF them For what is il

that makes modern life most modern
