WORLD CONFERENCE HERE
This Is Plan of Those Who
Favor Christian Unity.

The Rev. DR.. William T. Manning rec
tor OF Trinity Church, has Just returned
from England, where he has been in con.
ference with the highest authorities OF
the Established Church there, accompa-
MED by the Bishops Of Chicago, Vermont
and Southern Ohio. AS a result of this
visit, it is believed that New York Will
probably be selected for the holding Of
the World Conference on Faith and Or
der.
This conference is in the form OF an
effort 10 bring Christians of the world, o.
all creeds, into unity Practically, all
Protestant religious bodies in America
have agreed to send delegates to Europe
and possibly TO Australia and South Az
RIGA. 10 secure cooperation OF persons
holding their views.
1t is not known at present just when
the conference will be held. but negotia-
tons thus far have proved one fact
namely. that there Is far less prejudice
shown than was expected, even Catholic
churchmen having displayed a great in
terest in the gathering. While the Ro-
man Catholics have not committed Their
Church 10 amy action. they have indf
Gated that they will take part i'm the con-
ference on the same level as the Others
without being bound by everything
does

THE TALK OF THE DAY.

Detective william j. Burns. whose
magazine article, THE Public and the
Pistol" was quoted in part in The Trib-
une, has issued statement wherein he
follows UP his attack against revolver
laws that deter law abiding citizens from
procuring firearms for home protection.
Mr.. Burns says: ut Is no exaggeration
to claim that three-fourths of our pistol
homicides can be prevented by checking
gun toting.' Pass laws enabling respon-
sibIe citizens who can show cause for
arming themselves to obtain licenses TO
carry revolvers. Provide a sliding scale
punishment for the gun toter-an ade-
ouate Jail sentence for the ordinary re-
spectacle citizen who happens 10 slip

AUTOMATIC DEVICES.

The recent railroad accidents, which
would have been prevented by an au-
tomato device stopping train enter
ing a block already occupied, are
likely to lead to an attempt to secure
legislation giving the Interstate Cont
MERGE Commission authority TO order
the adoption OF automatic safety de-
vices by railroads. Those who are
urging such legislation are fortified by
the report of the Block Signal and
Train Control Board of the Interstate
Commerce Commission TO the effect
that there are three such devices
which are entirely practicable in all
conditions of service and every variety
Of weather This board conducted eX-
tensive experiments before making its
report.
Railroad opinion is that none Of the
devices Is entirely satisfactory. But
this does not Justify the failure of the
railroads TO experiment with them
when so many lives might be saved
by the development and use Of an au-
tomato system that could be depended
upon. Such a system is not likely to
he obtained except as Jesuit of prac-
teal experimenting. Inventors are
discouraged, as the Block Signal and
Train Control Board points out, by the
present lack Of interest on the part of
the railroads in automatic safety de-
vices. Moreover, the actual putting to
use OF new devices Is usually essential
10 the perfectng of them. In prac-
tice improvements are suggested The

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

The stock market has shown no new
energy during the last week, and it's
action is uncertain as regards future
movement. All the factors Of an in
fuencing character have been favor
able to a better tendency than has been
shown. Easy morey, splendid crop
prospects, great Industrial activity and
n general expression of confidence in
the future by leading men in all
branches OF trade and industry would
appear TO be sufficient to inspire a
better exhibition OF investment buy
ing than has been in evidence lately.
Net only is the stock market on an
uncertain balance, but the bond mar
ket Is exceptionally quiet, and no one
seems to be competent TO give rea-
sonable explanation.
Aside from the stock market and in
vestments generally, the best Of news
has been IN circulation. Commercial
agencies have reported trade condi-
tons as n whole for the week we'll up
to normal, and in the various lines Of
trade many have shown exceptional
activity and increased volume. The
railroads are proving their faith in the
abundant crop prospects by increas-
ing equipment and facilities generally
in anticipation Of the autumn demands.
Railroad men are acknowledging that
q congestion will be almost unavoidable
during the late months of the year If
the indicated volume Of manufactur-
ing and crops is realized. During the
week orders for ten thousand cars and
three hundred locomotives were booked.
The etcel trade continues to boom and
