New York Walters
Peacefully Inclined.


New York, Jan. 26.-All the larger ho-
te,s and restaurants affected by the
walters strike were picketed today,
but the strikers seemed to be peaceably
inclined and little trouble developed
during the day for the large forces of
detectives and uniformed police ON
guard.
The strikers held mass meeting at
their headquarters, at which Elizabeth
Curley Flynn, leader of the strike, de-
clared that the union was prepared to
hold out indefinitely to gain it's de-
mands. 1t was learned. however, that
the strike committee met, today, to ar
range a program looking to a confer
ence with the hotel managers for a
settlement.
The right of special policemen to pa
trel the sidewalks in front of hotels
was upheld, today. In court, when 90
special officers who were arrested by
the police, last night, at the orders OF
Police Commissioner Waldo, were ar
raiened and speedily discharged. The
commissioner claimed that their uni
forms too closely resembled those of
the regular patrolfnen.

Washington. Jan. 26.-Members of the
House Money Trust committee, who
are to draft a report on results of the
inquiry into financial affairs, thus far
conducted have before them for con-
sideration d brief just filed on behalf
of the New York Stock Exchange by
its attorneys denying that the federal
government has power to compel its
Incorporation or to regulate its affairs.
The state of New York, it is admit
ed in the brief, has power to enact
laws for the guidance of the Exchange,
though the belief is expressed in the
argument that no law, either by state
or nation will stop certain transactions.
1t is further asserted that the members
of the Stock Exchange are better able
to control its affairs than any legis-
lative authority.
"Wc assert" says the brief, that no
regulation whatever is within the pow
Ell Of Congress. But we are far from
asserting that fle state is without any
power of regulation.
That the state may legislate with re-
spect to transactions such as improper
manipulation is unquestionable. How eff
fectively it can legislate as to such mat
tiers is another question. Hopes and ex-

general public. The answer to all charges
against the Exchange is said to lie in
the statement that all transactions are
matters between customer and broker
with which the Exchange has nothing to
do so long as highest standards of bust
ness honesty are maintained.
The brief also contains many legal de-
cisions submitted to prove that the Stock
Exchange cannot be subject to the inter-

The Government has spent thou
sands of dollars upon the local station
and has succeeded in interesting the
fishermen in the work. The fishermen
invariably set aside spawning cod To
await the arrival of the steamer Gan
nett, which frequently visits the fish
ing grounds. Probably no man in ire
country is more familiar with ti,e
haunts and characteristics of the cod
fish than Capt Greenleaf, who says;
Why, bless your life, son, the cod
is one of the ugliest fish afioat. He
isn't naturally savage like the doghsh,
but he is easily miffed and is always
ready to act in self-defence If he
/ thinks himself in danger.
Say, perhaps, you won't believe 1t,
but it's true as gospel, Goldfish will
tackle anything when he feels like it.
They'll eat anything, too. Ever hear of
cod eating eoot for dinner? Well,
it's fact they'll do it when they get
a chance and I've known them to eat
whole Holsters without waiting to
have the shells picked off.
But | started in to tell you about
that cod that swallowed the coot. One
day we got a seed cod aboard the
Gannctt 1t was one of the biggest |
ever saw and weighed about seventy
five pounds. My men expected a big
haul but not many spawns were
scraped from it and we were all sur
prised. So the men decided to cut the
fish open and when they did this ont
ir., he NJ
THE bird was beauty and wasn't
injured bit. 1t wasn't mussed and
hadn't been chewed up at all, showing
that it was swallowed without any APP
parent effort"
How do you account for the coot
coming in the way of the big fish,"
We'll, l don't really know, but
suppose that bird was flying low over
the water and possibly might have
stopped to stick his head down under
when the cod suddenly saw him and
with one gulp swallowed him.
Then Capt. Greenleaf related stories
of finding Holsters inside some of the
big Goldfish taken TO the hatchery.
That's nothing new" remarked the
captain, but / was surprised one day
when we pulled out a lobster nine

the robins on breadcrumbs and meal
