washington, Jan. 10.-That the pres
ent concentration Of money and credit
has gone far enough; that "in bad
hands" it would have bad effect on
the nation; that the safety OF the sit
ua tion lies in the personnel Of the men
in control" and that present conditions
are mot entirely comfortable for tho
country" were a few OF the statements
made to-day by George +. Baker, mas
ter financier, as the climax OF two
days' examination before the House
money trust" committee. But Mr..
Baker added that bad hands could
not retain the control.
These statements, coming at the end
OF a day of routine examination, DUR

bonds. startled the committee and Mr..
Raker's counsel, Fisher A. Baker and
John C. Spooner.
The committee had gone beyond its
usual hour of adjournment in order TO
conclude the examination of Mr.. Baker.
Samuel Untermyer. its counsel, was
wading through a mass of heavy sta
tistics relating to bond issues handled
bv Mr. Bakers associates. Suddenly
he paused, leaned forward in his chair.
and shot q question at the seventy
three-year- financier. who. despite
his long examination, was cheerful and
confident.
"Mr. Baker. I suppose you do not
think there is a money trust'?" de-
manded the lawyer.
Committee, spectators and counsel
sat forward in their chairs, and the
room grew tense with expectancy. The
witness leaned back in his chair, smiled
quietly and replied:

Walters Leader Eliminates
AGAINST Capitalists, While
the Strikers Applaud at
Bryant Hall Meeting.
RANKS GAIN IN STRENGTH
Industrial Workers, Now in
Charge of Demonstration,
Plan to Close Up Every
Hotel and Restaurant
in the City.

"lf you 90 nave 10 go pack unoef
unsatisfactory conditions, do il with
YOUR minds made up that il is the un.
safest proposition in the world for
CAPITALISTS to eat food prepared by
members Of your union!"
This was a specimen of the advice
that Joseph Ettor, who flames now so
luminous in the labor fire in this coun-
try gave to the striking walters at
their meeting at Bryant Hall last
night.
After a week Of waiting for Ettor the
walters were keyed up TO an ecstatlc
point and they screamed and yelled
his e,ery climax. The hall was packed,
of course. when he came in, to the ac-
commandment Of cheers, waving hags
and stamping Of feet.
~ don't care whether you are right
or wrong" he declared emphatically.
"I don't know whether your cause Is
inst or not i have not time to ask.
know YOU are on strike for what YOU
feel is right, and therefore l shall do
all that I can. Don't let the board OF
arbitration decide for you, because 1t
will keep you guessing-it is only
guessing board, anyway
The labor leader had his own plan
for making the strike effective. 1t was
concise enough; something like this:
IF YOU want to win your fight close
the hotels and keep them closed. Shut
ali the doors, not only the l.tchen and
pantry doors, but the main entrances.
Mob Follows Ettor.
Ettor did not linger long, despite the
pleading of the throng that was as
semblcd to hear him. He said he had
10 leave in order TO be present to-day
at the annual meeting OF the textile
workers OF the Industrial Workers Of
the World at Little Falls, and after he
had spoken only a comparatively short
time he left the hall, followed by a
plunging, roaring mob.
Before he appeared the meeting had
been worked up 10 expectancy by
speeches from other members of the
Industrial Workers OF the World.
which is now conducting the strike.
Patrick Quinlan made prophecy that
the strikers would have the hotels
where they want them" within a
week, and then made an attack on the
owner of the Waldorf
Frank Pease, one of the Industrial
Workers of the World leaders, urged
combination as the only hope for a sue
cessful strike. He said he did not want
TO ses organized fragments" but
wished everybody" TO join in at one
time.
That's the only reason we won at
Lawrence he said. THE trouble with
YOU men is you don't have sufficient
agitation
Maurice Dumas spoke in French and
Carlo Treska in Italian TO the three
thousand men and twoscore women
present. The Industrial Workers of
the Word had taken the precaution to
have some of its men set aside to keep
order in the hall. and there was. no
trouble.
The one place at which the strikers
really made trouble last night was up
town Mouquin's. They kept the French
restaurant in confusion for hours.
Just about dinner time gang of men
gathered in front of the restaurant and
began to veil and hoot Before the
police could stop them they rushed up
