MISS HOY ABUSES" THE MEN.
Calls Them 'Hypocrites" and 'Pharisees" at
Suffragette Meeting.

II * nrohahIv trIe that people like TO be abused
for the speaker who got the most applause az the
suffragetJ meeting in Madison Square yesterday
afternoon was Miss Helen Hoy, lawyer, who
brief bag in hand upbraided her male fellow citi-
zens for quarter Of an hour or more in the most
scathing language she could command and ended
by calling them 'hypocrites" and "Pharisees.
The men seemed 10 enjoy it hugely, and when Miss
Hoy reached the climax of her invectlve they ap-
plaudeo vigorously and shouted:
She's all right
The meeting the largest the suffragettes have
held, probably because of the mild weather, and
while the speakers were holding forth from the
treste various skirmishes went on on the outskirts
of the crowd One endeavored to persuade
Miss Harriette 4. keyser that the movement was
a waste Of time.
I'VE men are perfectly willing you should have
the franchise" he said, but nine-tenths Of the
women don't want it. You should educate the
women
Meantime. 4 man who gave his name as Joseph
H Finck laboring assiduously 10 educate a
defiant young woman who did not seem 10 ne
amenable to such influence Mr.. Finck. who ap-
parently entertains the common masculine delu-
sion that women can do wrong, had been set
ting forth-from the trestle-that when women
voted all the wrongs Of mankind would De rghted.
There would be more rent wars, no more
franchises would be sold and all marriages, or at
least the great majority OF them, would be happy,
because there would not be much trouble about
money.
To this description of the millennium the defiant
young woman listened with great contempt.
The trouble with marriages., she said with
whitening scorn. that there aren't enough good
men to go round
Mr. Finck protested mildly that the men were
not so black as they painted, but they did not
always have money enough TO get married on.
Then after ne had finished his speech he tried TO
explain TO his critic that were not quite ON
nipotent and wanted women 10 help them set things
right.
Can't you fight your own battles? she retorted
DO you want your wives 10 fight for you?"
Mr. Finck looked helpless and laid down his arms,
There were about half a dozen speakers, includ~
ing Mrs Harriet Stanton Blatch. Miss Keyser, Miss
Maud Malone and Mrs. B. Borrnaan Wells. One
woman protested against Little Tins" anti
cigarette ordinance as piece of pure sex legisla-
ton
'Supposing any rabid set of reforners were re
try to thrust such an ordinance men,. she said,
what shout of Indignation would hear! That
Is because men have votes Our legislators don
think they have 10 look after their morals as
though they were criminals women"
Miss Keyser said she was going write to Sec
retary Taft and ask him what he meant by saying

meeting.
As the meeting broke up cynical citizen in
quiTed Of his neighbor:
What do they want votes for. anyway? They
would never be counted"
The neighbor was also cynical.

TO CLASSIFY PIG IRON
Standardization Not Prices, OtJect
of Conferences.

A representative of one of the large steel COM
panies Who has represented his company at the
various conferences of the advisory committees OF
the steel and iron companies held recently to bring
about cooperation and better understanding In
the trade said yesterday that the main OBJECT OF
the meetings was TO standardize methods of selling
and grading pig iron A good deal of irreguar1ty,
he explained had existed in grading the various
kinds of iron used in the manufacture OF steel
products, and it was important that some uniform
method Of classifying the different grades should
be adopted before fixing the prices OF the finished
material. Speaking of the conference of steel in
terests in ex-Judge Gary's office last Monday,
this said:
Representatives from all the steel companies In
the United States were present and uniform sched-
ules were adopted for classifying the various
grades OF pig iron. There was no agreement in
regard to maintaining prices.
THE manufacturers have formed an association
for purposes Of consolidation and free and full in
terchange OF views, and recent meetings of pig
iron manufacturers have been called with these
ends in view. AS result various furnace interests
North, South, East and West have adopted stand
ard methods for sampling and analyzng pig iron.
They have also adopted a standard classification
for many grades and qualities of iron, so that
hereafter quotations will more uniformly reflect
fair values Of standard qualities.
Absolute harmony has prevailed a tail these
meetings. and while individual action is taken in
all cases, yet the influence Of the clearing house
Of Information that results from these conferences
viii naturally tend to establish trade confidence
and prevent radical action and trade demoraliza-
