Phllpotts has made us familiar with
romantic Devonshlre, in his fasclnat-
ing novels, 1.-THE River" Children OF
the Mist" etc. The characters are very
human; the people there drink coffee
with the same results as elsewhere. A
writer at Rock House, Orchard HILL
Bideford, North Devon, states:
For 80 years l drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner, but some 3 years

Three boys in house were told to go

reported the result thus: sit is at this

TO FIGHT BOYCOTT
Manufacturers Association De- clares War Against Labor
 Federation.

Norfolk, Va, Nov. 12.-That there will be war to the knife between the American Federation of Labor and the National Association of Manufacturers was evidenced to-day at the session of the Federation of Labor here. The federation has already taken the ag- gressive by looking to the establish nent of a fund to fight the manufac- tltrers through It's executive council The cry Is that undue pressure Is be- Ing brought to bear by the manufac- turers of the country against organ ized labor to the detriment of labor, it is claimed. The manufacturers com- bat this in statement issued to-day by James Van Cleave, president of the National Association of Manufactur- CTS in which he holds that the object of his association is to put labor on a basis whereby they may be held re- sponsible for their contracts. As an instance he calls attention to the pend ing suit in New York of the Typothe- tae against the pressmen alleging the breaking of contracts by the press men.
 On the issue made by MT. Gompers to-day in seeking funds to fight the suit brought by MT Van Cleave as president of the Buck Stove and Range company of St. Louis against Presi- dent Gompers and the federations ex- ecutive council, the manufacturers as- sociation come out flatfooted with the statement that 1t will fight the boy colt and the blacklist to the finish.

EXPLANATION OF DEBENTURE ISSUE Holders of the Present Con vertibles Can Subscribe
 to Two-thirds of
 New Ones.
RIGHTS GIVEN
 DECEMBER SECOND
Method by Which to Reckon the Presumptive Market Value of the New
 Bond.

There having been considerable con- fusion as to the nature and terms of issue of the forty million new convert lble six per cent. debentures of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company. the following ex- pIanation will probably clear up the general subject
 First for each three shares held of the New Haven stock one new deben- ture representing $1OQ will be issued.
 Second, holders of the present con- vertible debentures of 1911 can sub- scribe for two-thirds the new deben- lures that they would be allowed to subscribe for in case they held stock. For example: A holder of sixty shares of stock would be allowed to subscribe for $2,0O0 new debentures, but of $6,OOO worth at par of present de- bentures, for only two-t thirds of $2.00o of the new ones. The debentures, that is to say, which now exist, are treated as having only two-thirds of the rights of the present shares inasmuch as at convertibility they must be exchanged for stock at the rate of two-thirds to one
 Third, some of the holders of the convertible debentures already out standing, have already paid up in full. Others have paid but seventy-ive per cent. and have twenty-five per, cent. yet to pay which becomes payable on ths first of next July. But whether the debentures have been fully paid fof CT not those who have paid in lfull and those who have paid seventy-fve per cent. are given equal privileges in the new subscriptions.
 Fourth, rights to subscribe to the new debentures will be given December 9 next and expire on the fifteenth of next January. Subscriptions will be payatis in four equal installments six months apart. Namely on January 15, 1908, July 16, 1908, January IA, 1908 and July 15.. 1909, Fractional rights must be cor solidated as usual.
 Fifth. Holders of the present cou- pon convertible debentures must pre- sent their bonds after December 9 to have the ownership entered on the bolxs, and the fact of the subse. .iption or their assignment stamped upon the bond
 Sixth. Any quotation of the value of the rights multiplied by three and add ed to the hundred, par, gives the pre- sumptive market value of the new bond, Thus if right Is quoted dit | three, the value of the new bond would be three times three added to one hundred-1O9 1t is to be remembered by holders of the stock and debentures that a right, so called, represents each shares of stock held in the case of shares and always, in the case of the present convertible debentures two- thirds of the par of the bond. That a holder of sixty shares of stock would have the same number of rights to sell, l the holder of s6,0O0 convertible deben- lures would have forty of the same righ $.

RESIGNATION IS
 NOT ACCEPTED Hospital Directors Issue Frank Statement and Supt. Coddington is
 Pardoned.
LATTER TOOK FULL
 BLAME FOR INCIDENT
Neglect of Kobeps Body Was Unfortunate, But Does Not Justify Re-
 moyal.

The following statement was issued by the directors of the New Haven hos pital last night:
 At the special meeting of the direct ors of the New Haven hospital the res ignation of the superintendent was con sidered and was not accepted,
 The resignation was offered by MT. Coddineton as a result Of the unfor- tunate versight resulting in the keep ing of the body of Joseph Kobel in the hospital morgue for an unreasonable length of time. Mr. Coddington from the first frankly acknowledged full re- sponsibiltty for this neglect on the part of the office, and rendered his resigna- tion to relieve the hospital from any criticism or embarrassment which might result
 The directors feel that this occur renee, while most painful and unfor- tunate, is not in Itself sufficient to jus tify or necessitnte MT. Coddington withdrawal from the work of the hos pital
 The report of tho prudential commit tee accompanying the resignation | showed that the person whose duty it was to take charge of the body were promptly notified. It was further shown that during the month of October, when the neglect occurred, the daily average number of patients far exceeded any previous record and that the hospital facilities were greatly overtaxed 1 During this time the work of caring for the sick patients was properly done under circumstances of unusual diff eulty, and the thought and energies oi the superintendent and attendants were taxed to an extent which explains, II it does not justify, the oversight ir this particular case.

ALARM TO STATE LIQUOR DEALERS Trade in the State Menaced According to the Official
 Journal of the
 Business.
UNITY OF ACTION
 URGED BY PAPER
Progress of the Prohibitionists Pointed Out as Due to Team {. Work-Blind Bull
 headedness" Hit.

The Liquor Merchants Trade Jour- nal, which is published in Hartford, and which is the official organ of the Retail Wine, Liquor and Beer Dealers association of Connecticut, flies q storm signal in its current issue. It warns the liquor dealers of Connec- ticut that their business is seriously menaced, and that unity of action is necessary in order to prevent the trade from being greatly embarrassed, if not practically wiped out, A sig nifcant article, entitled, "Get Together Or Lose" is printed. It is as fol- lows:
 There is food for considerable thought on the part of the liquor dealer in the results of the recent elections through out the state, Also in the light that Is coming to be shed on the real import of the bills passed at the last legislature. It is safe to say that the intelligent dealer fully realizes the danger that threatens the existence of the trade in Connecticut and the necessity for irl- mediate, aggressive and unceasing eff  forts toward protection.
 On the other hand there is an ele- ment engaged in the liquor business in Connecticut, and in every other state, presumably that Is unable to realize tho situation and that never twill be able to realize 1t until those who compose that element find them selves out of business for good. Some of them, as result of the elections, Ih have already found themselves In that position Others belonging to the intelligent element are sufferers with them, because 1t Is only by concerted effort that the existence of the trade can be continued.
