New York. Dec. 22--Addressing his wealthy congregation at the close of the formal sermon today. Dr. c. A. Aked, who recently came from Liver pool to become pastor of the Fifth Ave- nue Baptist Church here. declared that he would not contemplate a permanent ministry In the church, if the system of finance which made possible a defi- cisncy at the end of the year, was con- finued.
 T want" said Dr. Aked,: "$7,000 be-. fore you leave this church this morn ing" He got 1t. He said the fact that some4nembers ot the congregation were wealthy had led others to put the bur den of the support of the church on them.
 Ut Is not fair; it's a mean spirit" 1" exclaimed Dr. Aked. Tt has raised up a crowd of stingy souls who won't support the church. It is not fair to me. I am tired of hearing this church called Mir. Smiths. MT Browns. or MT. Robinson's church. I want $7.o00 be- fore you leave this church. The finances must be reorganized so that nothing of this kind can ever happen again"

INTO JAWS OF LION
MOVEMENT OF AMERICAN FLEET
 IS so CHARACTERIZED.
Editor of Review of Reviews Writes Lengthy Article on Naval Affairs,
 Touching Both England and

London, Dec. 22-William T. Stead. the editor of The Review of Reviews in an article in The Daily Mail justify ing his recent advocacy of Great Britain's replying to Germany's naval plan by laying down two Dreadnoughts for every one Germany builds; argues that Germany has weakened instead of strengthened her position in the world by building a fleet because the whole German navy virtually is hostage in the hands of a stronger naval power
 For any power to have fleet on the high seas, says the writer, which is not the strongest fleet afloat, Is an increase of strength but not of vul- nerability. For instance. the American fleet in tic Pacific is supposed to be a menace to Japan in reality if it ven- lures in the Northern Pacific. Uncle Sam will be bound over to good be- havior to the whole value of1hat fleet. The United States invulnerable on land Is venturing her head into the jaws of the Japanese lion and while the fleet remains in the Pacific. Americans will be very civil to Japan"

Tne exception were, the moving picture shows of the East Side. which were not allowed to open, although the pro- prietors of some promised to picture only Biblical scenes.

 The theatres, opera houses and the higher class of music halls continued closed as before. The vaudeville nous es confined their programs to sketches nonologues, stereoptican exhibitions and singings.

 ls Promising.
 Boston, Dec. 22-The opening of the last full week for sthe year, finds con servatism predominant in all New En- gland industries, but there Is no feeling of hopelessness apparent anywhere, and the general sentiment appears to be that trade will partially recover. dur Ing 1908, though a full revival is not looked for until after the Presidential election.
 As this city is the center of the wool. hide and leather. boot and shoe machin. cry trades of the United States, and nearly a hundred cotton and wooden mills have their head offices in Boston. the commercial situation in the country at large Is usually accurately refiect- ed here.f New England banks stood the financial strain better than institutions in other sections. only three banks be- ing compelled to close. Of these. one has resumed. It fs generally admitted that the financial outlook is brighten in- ..<
 As a natural outcome of the fnan. cial disturbances. New England indus tries are being conducted cautiously and policy of curtailment and re- duction of expenses has been adopted in probably all branches of trade.
 Many manufacturers regard it advis- able to restrict the out put in order to prevent a slump in prices and a great surplus of goods in the spring. Curtail. ments are general among New England woolen mills. many of which are mum bering but four days Q week. It Is es. timated that 500,eo0 hands are affected in the woolen trade by the short time the machine shops. chair factories and shoe factories have also been restrict ing the output but the shoe factories are gradually going on full time again as that industry shows more improve ment than others. Hundreds of estab- lishments will take action during the holiday week and close in part or en- tireIy Nearly all will resume work next week. NJ
 While a gradual improvement Is looked for in 1908 1t is estimated that from 200 900 to 250. 0.o0a employees of New England industries will be on a short time basis during the first part of the year. This number will be an increase of about 125,000 over the number affect ed last week due to the arrangement being made by cotton manufacturers to curtail the output 25 per cent from Christmas until March.1.
