EMPLOYERS OF LABOR
TO PROTECT THEMSELVES
Will Establish Manufacturers Cas-
ualty Insurance Company.

The manufacturers and employers OF
labor have not been idle In making ar
rangements to protect themselves under
the new workmens compensation act
which goes into effect January l, 1915
They have formed an organization which
will later be chartered under the name OF
the Manufacturers Casualty Insurance
Company a stock corporation which Will
be owned, managed and controlled by em-
ployers OF labor in the State of Pennsyl-
vania and elsewhere where workmen's
compensation laws are in operation.
The premiums paid last year by the
employers of labor to the casualty COM
panies were over S3l 100000, and the losses
paid were less than S9,5OOO0O, 1t is estl-
mated the premiums in Pennsylvania
under the new act will amount to S20,
100000 annually.
A meeting was held last week at the
Merchants Union Trust Company and
Thomas s. Dando OF tho Dando Printing
Company, was elected chairman OF the
board OF trustees, which trustees are to
be the custodians OF the funds until the
incorporation OF the company. The Mer-
chants Union Trust Company was elected
treasurer OF the trustees.
The trustees are at present composed OF
Thomas g. DRndo, chairman, president Of
the Dando Printing Company; Joseph p,
Mack. second vice president OF the Union
Paving Company; Perclval 10. FOerdsrer,
president Of Robert II. Foerderer Com
pany, Inc. Horace B. spaekman. second
vice president OF the Lukens Iron Com
pany, and Russell Duane. Esq. OF Duane,
Morris g. Heckscher Counsel for the
trustees are Duane, Norris & Heokscher,
The organization OF the company Is based
on the nOn-agency principle which means

RAPID TRANSIT SAGGED
IN STAGNANT SESSION
Investors Have Been Steadily
Picking Up Local High-grade
Stocks and Bonds.

Uncertainty as to the outcome of the
German reply to the Presidents note re-
garding the rights of American citizens
on the high seas checked the trading on
the local exchange to such an extent to-
day that the market was practically stag
nant except for United States steel. That
stock was fairly active for time, but after
opening Arm gradually reccded and then
became dull. II was said that there was
again little liquidation for foreign aC-
count, but that sales were not being
pressed. Reading. Pennsylvania. Baldwin
Locomotive. Asphalt preferred and Lake
Superior were all inclined TO sag. but
the dealings were for the most part
confined to odd lots. incidentally 1t
was stated that u large stock exchange
house in this city during the last
week has bought no less than 100000
worth of standard railroad shares for
Philadelphia capitalists, who feel they
are cheap around present quotations.
Interests close to tho Pennsylvania Rail-
road predicted today that the June earn
ings will show big increase In both
gross and net They base this partly on
the showing Of idle cars on tho lines
east and west, which showed decrease
as of July I'd of 22,2j2. or 2sh per cent.
from April /. The number of cars now
idle are at the lowest point of the year,
Tho fact that the jltney fraternity had
apparently found a way to ev0de the
new ordinance through calling them sight
seeing vehicles, together with the ad-
mission by tho authorities that II would
be impossible to enforce the ordinance
anyhow, because Councils had omitted to
provide the requisite funds for the pur-
pose, exerted depressing effect upon
sentiment with regard to the traction
stocks. Rapid Transit lost Il small frac-
tlon, but offerings were negligible. and
the other issues, such as Union and Phila-
delphia Traction shares. remained quiet.
In considering the reduced earnings
shown this spring by the Rapid Transit
Company 1t must be borne In mind that
most other Important fractions in the
East have made a poor showing. For
instance, the gross receipts of the Brook
lyn Rapid Transit system showed loss
in June Of $4,000. or nearly $500 per day
The same can be said of the entire June
quarter, every month producing shrink
age, the aggregate loss being 1923. 00O
This indicates that not only Jitneys, but
closed mills, bad weather and general
business depression have had much to
do with the losses of the big Eastern
traction systems
In the bond division, too, stagnatlon
reigned except for q slight advance in
American Gas and Electric 5s and mod
crate sales % Pennsylvania general A
and Philadelphia Electric As. Lake su-
perior income 5s were offered down to
3O5a without n sale.

Prices Showing a Firmer Tendency.
Collections Fair.

F According to the local weekly trade re-
view of r. G. Dun & Co., conditions I'm
the local cotton and cotton yarn trade
show but little change over previous week.
Business was moderately active during
the early part of the week. but became
very quiet the latter part. Prices remain
about the same and collections are re-
ported satisfactory. There has been no
change of moment In the local wool mar
kets during the last week; fair guam
titles of wool have been purchased by
manufacturers in need of supplies. but
here appears to be but little disposition
TO anticipate future requirements. Deal
lngs are mostly in foreign woods, which
are available at lower prices than asked
Tor the domestic product.
Among the jobbers of hosiery, under
wear and notions there is reported more
artiylty in business and some improve
ment In collections. Shirt manufacturers
report the seasons business as a satis-
factory one.
