SAYS BANKERS CAUSED
 MELLEN'S RETIREMENT

Boston. July 3O-One who has in-. timate knowledge of N- r., N. H. & H. affairs says:
 The passing of MT. Mel1en-and there is no more slxf1lfuI railroad op- orator in the United States than he, demonstrates very clearly the gu- preme authority exercised by the bank CTS. It is generally recognized that the money power -wfeIds "a tremendous influence in shaping the ffnancial poll. cies of all our great railroads. and this is particularly so with respect to the New York, NewsHaven c. Hart-' ford railroad MT. Morgan. Jr-. and some of his intimate friends desired the elimination of MT. Mellen, and the latter had been conscious Of thia fact for many months, or since the death of J. Pferpont Morgan, Sr.
 with $40, ,ooo, ,Ooo of short time tn- debtedness shortly to mature, MT. Mel len was confronted with an awkward financial situation with the hands Of those whose financial assistance Waa irnperatively necessary turned against him.
 After all, we seem compelled to bow to the dollar sign, and ] pre- dict that great as has been the in fuence exercised by the bankers in controlling New Haven affairs in the past the road will hereafter. more than ever before, be governed by ths money power"

MIRACULOUS CURE.
Joseph SIattery of Hartford Cast Aside
 Crutches After Application of Relic of St. Ann.
(Rrfstol RessN

While there have been a large num- Der of cures for defermity and dis ease at St. Josephs church since Rev. Thomas J. Keena pastor of the church brought the relic of St. Ann here. none have been more pronounced or creat- ed greater comment than the cure of Joseph S1attery, aged 12 years, who resides at Brook street in Hartfc

 Joseph S1attery came here with his mother He was on crutches and had been able to get about for the past several years only with the use of crutches. He went to the altar and had the relic of St Ann applied. Then the miracle was worked. He left the crutches at the altar and walked back to his seat. His moth CT was oVerjoyed by the transforma- tion, and there was quite a conamo- ton among the worshippers in the church, a large number witnessing the cure 4-.4,~. r.-s.5
 This is but one of the many cures which < Father Keena. is conversant with. and while they. are not general ly made public, the occurrence was that it. was soon a topic of lively con versation. .gg.s
 There was a steady stream of visi- tors to the: church throughout the day and it is estimated that fully five thou sand visited the church and had the relic applied. Rev Father Keenas and Rev. Father Cuny were assisted in the services by Rev. J. T. Winters, of New Britain; Rev. w. J. Tanning, of Un- ion City and Rev. J. Clement Martin of wsst.s Joseph's sGathedral. < Hartford.

MINE rs LQSE
$780, 1865
Money as Result of Strike and
Exactions Made by Uni=
Ted Mine Workers.

CHI AR14RSFON. July IS - The
Paint Greek q Ilieries Company and
the STANDARD Splfnt and Gas Coal
Company, which were operated as
union mines before the strike which
began sixteen months ago have
signed new contracts with the union,
thus ending the long strikelat these
mines, which employ about. half OF
the total number oftminers on Paint
creek. The contract includes the
check-off, under the terms of which
every employee, whether Willingly
or unwillingly Is compelled to pay
union dues. The other mines on
Paint creek will not concede the
check-off. Thus the union does not
extend its territory under the new
contracts.
The settlement was made on a
basis of ffty-one, cents ton for
pick mining spline5 coal, which Is
four cents a ton less than the scale
in erect when the strike began,
ana twenty-nine cents for machine
mining splint coal, a reduction OF
four and. one-half cents ton from
the rate paid at the time the strike
began.
AS a pick miner averages about
$50 tons a month this means that
the men, after sixteen months 81
idIeness and turmoil have been com
PEELED by the officers OF the union to
lose an average of SO month or
$500 a year in wages in order that
the organization may be enriched to
the tune OF $500 per head fortnight
in dues through the check-oh.
or, to put the same thing in other
words, the officers of the union have
shown by this action that the organ
ization is really interested in the
miner only as source of revenue
for its own officers. Adding the $24
year in dues to the reduction in
wages makes an average loss of $144
a year in wages that the miners
will lose through their long strike.

Coming Out
Into the Open

1t was not so many years ago
that advertising was considered
unethfcal from business stand
Many of the finest old houses
held aloof, saying that they
didn't have to advertise. Even
today there are some business
and professional men so bound
by custom and tradition that
they have not yet availed them
selves of the advantages of ad-
yertising.
BY so much as these customs
still hold, by just so much is the
public deprived OF knowing all
about those professions and
business.
The most successful way and
the only honest way to deal with
the public is to play the game
out in the open"
II there are true and interest,"
ing reasons why the public
should buy something from SO
e. So, then So & So should be
glad of a chance to say so over
and over again through the
medium of reliable newspapers.
