were hopelessly divided and con-
tinually at war with each other.
Now they are fairly we'll united,

The officials directing the fight
on both sides are exceptionally

While there is nothing to the
talk of certain anthracite opera
tors that the United Mine Work
ers are being unfairly manipulat-
ed in the interest Of the bituminr-
Gus operators, 1t Is nevertheless
true that II work in the hard col
fields is suspended next week X
will be of great benefit to the soft
coal industry.
One of the largest operators in
Ohio said to me, in discussing the
that the bituminous opera
tors had made no money during
the past three or four years. but
that suspension in the anthra-
cite districts would prove a god
send to the soft coal men by en-
abling them to work off their sur
plus stocks and stiffen prices
1t looks now as though a gen.
eral strike in the three anthracite
districts cannot be avoided, and 1t
Is quite likely that Mr.. Baer's
press agents will repeat the
charge that the miners have been
melted to suspend work by the
operators.

we told him we would be pleased

"The price paid was, we felt.

Police ON Trail of Tin Cans.

AS result of this agitation and
the activity of the health depart
ment which has been spurred to
unusual activity by the anti-vac-
cinationists, the policemen of the
city are to this week all become
officials. Every one must assist
in cleaning up the city by order
of the city council. He Is to re-
port all old tin cans. all filth and
rubbish wherever found and or
der the property owners to clean
up.
The council has conclude that
it is all folly to pay special sani-
tary inspectors to do work which
the policemen. whose main duty
is to walk around, can easily per-
form. Accordingly the policemen
are now on the trail of tin cans
and other rubbish articles.

REV YORK, March 20.-'Since
1857 can remember all the great
nnlcs, but 1 believe the panic Of
1907 was the most trying. No one
escaped from It, great or small.
Important institutions had to be
supported and carried through the
ttlne Of distrust and unreasoning
fear. The question has been ask
"a II ! think we shall revive quick
u from the panic of October, 1907.
/ ann not . prophet nor the SON Of
prophet, but, as to the ultimate
49tcome there Is no doubt.
This temporary setback will
fead to safer Institutions and more
conBUz vative management on the

quality we need. 1t will not long

SECURE"
Thus ~rites John d. Rockefel-
Ter In the April number of The
Worlds Work, published tomor-
row.
The panic Of 1893 didn't hurt
John d. Rockefeller a bit, he says.
In fact, 1t made him all the richer.
The worse the panic, the richer he
became.
While other business enter
prises Were failing on all sides,
Standard OIL, says Rockefeller,
continued to make money, during
the great panic, "as we had large
reserves Of cash on account Of our
conservative methods of banking"
His tightest pinch came in ore.
In telling of this, Rockefeller
shows how he made it possible for
the steel trust to be organized.
His experience in ore began in the
early nineties, when he made in
yestments In the district. The
panic forced him to loan his per-
sonal securities to save the mines.
I'VE had invested many millionsl
and no one wanted to go In with
Us TO buy stock. On the contrary.
everybody wanted to SELL"
Therefore, Rockefeller bought
In alarming quantities." paying
cash. This had to be done to|
seve what he already owned.
At last he found It necessary toI
transport his ore, because selling
the output Of the mines was the
only way to get his money back.
Frederick T. Gates, whom
Rockefeller first met in connection
with Baptist missionary work,
vas made president OF the ore
companies.
At BOOKSELLERS house one
night within 10 minutes time, they
employed Samuel Mather-of Cleve-
land, . competitor. and gave him
