..rHE PEOPLES MONEY. :"
(Financier of London. )

'"The Peoples Money" by MT. John W. De Kay, published at a shilling by MT. Effingham Wilson, is a remark able brochure. The author is well known in England, America and Mex leo as a captain of industry. but in moments of scant leisure he is also a polished writer, for whom the essen tial problems of life are more mo mentous than the glamour of Vanity Fair As self-revealed in the book under notice, his sentiment is ardent 1y hunanitarian, in opposition to that mega1ofnania. of wealth and power which is more manifest and infinitely more harmful to the community in Am erica, than here. Even there the evils of concentrated money power often unscrupulously exercised, as the author shows-are deemed into1era ble now that America is emerging from the elem stage of evolution, with it's titanic struggles and its boundless aspirations. The great Republic, as the recent political upheava1 shows,
 has become acutely self-conscious. and is determined to eliminate the rank excrescences that menace the we'll being, the liberties and the healthy
 progress of the community.
 It is timely and appropriate, there fore, that MT. De Kay should begin
 his tractate with a scathing fndict- ment of hitherto ,unbridled money power in America His disclosures
 are astonishing; they might seem 8n- credible were they not substantiated
 by the citation of facts within his own knowledge and experience. Thus he shows that a few manipu1ators are able by the coordination of private and national banks they control to
 gamble with the peoples savings for
 their own enrichment and to, crush all who venture to withstand their in defensibIe methods. Assuming that the indictment be held proved, 1t is easy to see that few individuals. en- trenched in a privileged and unassail- able position, may hold the country to ransom for their own ends and per- vert the great ideals with which the Republic started.

AN INTERNATIONAL MARRIAGE
CFrom the New York Globe.)

CFrOm the New York GlObe.)
 Commenting on the forthcoming marriage of Miss Nancy Leish1nan to the duke Of Croy, Berlin society weekly offers these remarks:-
 MT. Leishman, who in other re- spects enjoys the reputation of being a very intelligent business man, ap- pears not to have informed himself sufficiently regarding the chances which await his daughter in the case of her marriage to the sovereign duke of DUlmen, Westpha4ia.
 The association of high German nobility" whatever that may be, has decided, it seems, that the daughter of the American ambassador could never hope to be recognized by a Ger man court as a duchess or a highness regardless of her matrimon onial con nections- It remains, therefore. for this daughter of the people to get such satisfaction as she can from standing close to the nights she can never scale.

IDLENESS AND CRIME.

IdIrness. mental and physical, now, as of old, is the cause of much mischief in the world.
 Contrasting participation ill q number of murders and other crimes of violence, William B. Jennings said to Boston court : "I never did a days work in my life"
 The man who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow has no time to meditate murder.
 The stress of the struggle for dxistence in a peaceful order is enough to keep the mans mind on his task. The toiler thinks of what he is doing and so avoids the pitfalls which everywhere are set for men who spend their lives in idlpleSS.

doing with her army, only on a larger scale, what France has been doing for forty years, and is now doing with energy propor- tioned to that of Germany, and what England has --bden doing with her navy. She is doing what Russia has been doing since the morrow of the Japanese war.
 Are we to conclude that the reasoning of the German rulers is based on fact, and that the wild struggle in the Balkans is only he prelude to a general con- nict? It is possible, but it is not necessarily so. The policy of Germany is not yet carried out. It is not certain that it can be. It involves gricVOus distress for the German people, and a serious check to German industrial eX- pansion. That expansion has been marvellous, and in d way it has been undoubtedly substantial. But it has been carried out by credit, by loans almost wholly de- rived from the two countries with which ultimate war is frankly cal culated. There are those in Germany who say with brutal candor that if peace is broken English and French debts will be repudiated. But repudiatlon means Stagnation and disaster. The Germans cannot go into gen. cral bankruptcy and continue in business. They cannot stop bus mess and continue to meet the extreme taxation a great war inn plies. The silent forces of com mercc are working for peace, and they are very powerful and en- during. .--EX.

Jennings may be mentally or physically unfortunate; he may be afflicted with a homicidal ma- mia. an uncomfortable desire to take human life; in such circum- stances he would be pitied by thoughtful men and women.
 But work would have helped Jennings to hold in check his homicidal impulse. Many per- sons burdencd by this same hid cous impulse have overcome it to some extent by dcvoting their time to useful and prntita able ser vice of some sort.
 The idle mind is still the dew irs workshop. Busy minds have no time to think of dcvillry.
 And any man who has the phy- sical strength necessary to en- able him to kill a fellOw-being, and mind enough to plan and cx- ecutc the crime, has in him at least a possible mental and phy- sical efficiency which would en- able him to weed his own TOW.
 Socicty's problem is to develop an use this latent efficiency of men of the Jennings type and to save such men from criminal ca recrS.
 The salvation is in the kind of work such men are best fitted to do. .--Ey

EMPL OVERS READY TO TREAT WITH
 STRIKE EMPLOYES

Paterson, April 2s-The silk manu- facturers were. encouraged today by news that employees of some of the mills have called shop meetings, to discuss the strike, independently of the general strike leaders. Three of these meetings were scheduled for this afternoon. All the manufacturers have sent out circular letters inviting the 25, 900 employees who quit work nearly 10 weeks ago to renew negotia- tions.
 The position of the employers has changed in that they now offer to meet the committees representing the workers whereas hitherto they have demanded that the employees come to them as individuals. They still refuse. however, to treat wtth professional strike leaders,
