When Wellington Was General.

The greatness of Wellington is never
more admiringly remembered than in
times of strife-and perhaps never
more usefully quoted. The duke one
day wanted a bridge constructed, and
the officer of the royal engineers whom
he consulted on the matter reported
that it could not be managed Another
officer was sent for, from another d.
vision of the army, with the result
that the task was duly accomplished
This caused the duke to put the fol-
lowing in ORDERS" HE who in war
fails to do what he undertakes, may
always plead the accidents which in
variably attend military affairs but
he who declares a thing to be impos-
sible, which is subsequently accom-
plished, registers his own incapacity."
Another wise saying" of Wellington
comes from another reader, and it is
appropriate to the moment. He was
asked what was the best test of a
great general, and he answered. ITO
know when to retreat; and to dare

Watch Sets Speed of Men.

One of the most interesting exhibits
at the jewelers. exhibition which has
been in progress at London was
novel watch for the use of officers hav-
ing charge of troops on the march, an
invention of an Austrian officer.
On the face is little arm (fllum-
mated by radium for night use), which
can be made TO swing SO many times
each minute. Thus an officer wishing
to bring his men to certain. place
at certain time, decides that they
must march 120 PAGES minute. He
then sets the arm to swing 100 times
minute. sets the pace to keep time
with the beat. and SO regulates the
speed Of the march.

burst as soon as they touched any

the least impeachment in their flight.
Handrails, funnel-guys, topping lifts
of the boats derricks, were quite suffi-
cient to cause thoroughly efficient

pieces, and the splinters caused many

MORGAN F|RMQU|TS
Giant Banking House WltidTaws
From Big Corporations.
Four Other Prominent Financiers
Follow-End of InterIocking
Directorates Is Seen.

New York-The withdrawal of j. P.
Morgan & Co., from more than a score
Of great corporations and the state
ment by George F. Baker, an almost
equally dominant figure in American
finance, that he soon would take SINH
lar action gave Wall street a thrill that
almost brought trading on the Stock
Exchange to halt
While it is probably true that many
of the prominent bankers had inform
alton foreshadowing this momentous
move toward ending interlocking d.
rectorates, the public and brokers had
no advance knowledge of what was
taking place in the inner councils of
the greatest of all American houses of
finance. Wherever telephone and
ticker flashed the news about the
street, groups of men gathered to dis
cuss what was the all-absorbing topic.
Mr.. Morgan, departing from his
firms traditional policy of silence,
made public statement announcing
the withdrawal of five members of j.
P. Morgan & Co. from directorships in
q corporations and the intention to
withdraw from more The statement
said:
1.-THE necessity Of attending many
board meetings has been 80 serious a
burden on our time that we have long
wished to withdraw from the directo-
rates of many corporations Many of
these directorships we have accepted
with reluctance, and only because we
felt constrained to keep in touch with
properties which we had reorganized
or whose securities we had recon-
mended to the public, both here and
abroad.
IAN apparent change in public SEN
timent in regard to directorships seems
now to warrant US in seeking to resign
from some of these connections
Indeed, it may be, in view of the
change in sentiment on the subject,
that we shall be in better position te
serve such properties and their secur
ity holders, if we are not directors.
We have already resigned from the
companies mentioned and we expect
from time to time to withdraw from
other boards on which we feel there il
no special obligation to remain"
