of Finance

which induced some discrimination in conservative banking circles. A tenn porary advance in call money also ex- cited some comment; and, consider ably decreased bank reserves and the big expansion in loans, expectations of a firner~ money market in the fu- ture were justified. As, however, the furry was largely the result of pre- parations for a big British credit in this market these factors were over looked for the time being, though like 1y to reassert themselves later A on. There are rumors also that France, Russia and even China are seeking loans orc redits in this market. New York's financial. institutions hold large amounts of Br1tish-owned American securities as collateral against loans, and these are being steadily distribut- ed whenever the market displays any special strength This persistent pres sure of marketable securities effectu- ally prevents any big rise in interna- tional railroad shares, notwithstand- ing their greatly enhanced status; but has not proved an element of weakness because the British government in di- recting the distrib ution of these se- curities is prudent enough from mo- tives of self interest not to spoil or de- press it's own market.
 The outlook is for a fairly active market with moderate fluctuations. The war is still the most vital factor The political campaign is a factor of little inf1uence\ either way The crop situation is not entirely satisfactory. According to the government report, the wheat crop is largely below last years, the winter crop showing a loss of about 1s0.000,OoO bushels, which is of. course, beyond repair. Some improvement may occur in Spring wheat, but that is often only about one-third of the entire crop. There is a surplus of About 100000 900 bushels left over from last year. so there should be scarcity, but the world situation is such as to in dicate good prices for r4growers. If we succeed in keeping out of the terri fic waste of life and property in E1u- rope, there is no reason why the coun- try should not enjoy another season of widely distributed activity. Out side@of the war the chief dangers are within our own control-the dangers of imitation and i'll advised prorh ho- ton-dangers which fortunately are fully recognized by those able to deal with them. The local market is spot ty. Railroads showed the most re1a- tive strength, especially the coa1ers and those chiefly held at home. Some of the industrfa1s were particularly strong, but the activity of motor shares and their evident manipuIa- ton induced more or less hesitation.

Max well issues were fairly strong but the general average of specialties was lit tie changed from final quotations of yesterday except Beet Sugar which yielded over two points. Among rails Canadian Pacific and Soo stood out for their strength and United States Steel led the active industrials with a slight fractional gain.
 Noon-Uncertain tendencies deveI- oped before the end of the first hour mainly in consequence of heavy sell ing of Anglo-F'rench lives, which were liquidated to the extent of $1,O0O,0O0, down to 95 4, an overnight concession of 3s.

 Coming Campaign

New York, June 15-Char1es Evans Hughes continued his conference here today with Republican leaders and others. He said when he met news papermen that he had no fixed plans in view for the day and indicated that plans for the campaign were as yet indefinite.
 It was said at MT. Hughes head quarters today that the nominee would in all likelihood make a cam paign tour but that this matter was also undecided. Headquarters are to be opened eventually in Chicago, it was learned, to handle the campaign in the west.

TO MEET AT COLORADO SPRINGS

Baltimore. - Colorado Springs was
chosen as the next convention city by
the International Typographical Union.
Proposals to increase the death and
pension benefits were defeated, as was a
resolution providing that one vice-presi-
dent should be elected from Canada
A proposal to increase the salaries of
the president and secretary-treasurer
was approved and will be submitted to
the referendum. A resolution to draw
the color line was defeated by large
vote. The executive council was in
structed to lend its aid to the movement
for the erection of suitable memorial
to Ottmar Mergenthaler, inventor of the
linotype machine, and whose home was
in this city. Attempts to change the
priority law and the sixday law failed.
The executive council was instructed to
inquire into the feasibility of erecting
an office building for the union to be
named in honor of the late William B.
Prescott. The apprentice question was
given much consideration and report
on this subject will be submitted to af-
fliateS

LABOR IS NOT SCARCE
in BRITISH COLUMBIA

Vancouver, B. C.-President Gun
ningham of the B. c. Manufacturers
Association is alarmed at what he terms
a scarcity of labor, and predicts that
business men will be compelled to use
Orientals as a last resort.
The B. c. Federationist, official paper
of the local trade union movement, re-
fers to Mr.. Cunningham statement as
"a squak of alarm" because workers are
accepting employment in the harvest
fields, rather than in low-wage shops.
The threat to use Oriental labor, as a
last resort, is referred to as follows:
at has been the habit with most OF
them to use such as first resort. rather
than last, and the departure from such
long g-established custom may be consid-
cred by Mr.. Cunningham as a most
dangerous innovation.
"The reason for the alram of the
manufacturers lies in the fact that if
the removal of workers from the prov
ince continues, the point will eventually
be reached when the employers here will
be forced to advance the wages to the
same fabulous figures offered else
where. That several hundred offered
themselves here in Vancouver for serv-
ice in the grain fields of the middle
provinces affords ample proof that there
is still a surplus of labor upon the mar
ket of British Columbia. That there is
a continual procession OF workers re-
turning to Vancouver after escaping
from the various mining, numbering,
paper-making and other slave pens Of
the province, rather tends to dispose Of
all pretense that labor conditions are
such as to present pleasant and per-
fumed pathway to the digniied and hon
est sons OF toll. Either that or pleasure
and sweet perfume hath no attraction
for these disciples of sweat"

8-HOUR DAY FAVORED
BY PRESIDENT WILSON

Washington, D. C.-In the contro-
versy between railroad managers and
their train service employees, who ask
for eight hours at present pay and ex-
ira pay for overtime, President Wilson,
after hearing both sides, said that "the
eight-hour day now undoubtedly has the
sanction of the judgment OF society in
its favor and should be adopted as a
basis for wages even where the actual
work to be done can not be completed
within eight hours"
This statement means, in effect, that
the principle OF the eight-hour day is so
thoroughly accepted that it should no
longer be considered a question for ar
bitration.
The ruling has enraged the railroad
managers and penny-a-liners, who
charge the President with rejecting the
principle OF arbitration, entirely over
looking the fact that he heard both sides
and that he favors arbitration on the
question of overtime and related ques-
tiOnS.
Opponents OF the Presidents position
also ignore this statement by him:
"The railroads which have already
adopted the eight-hour day do not seem
" " ot any oSiio''S blodbN III
respect of their cost OF operation, as
compared with the railroads that have
retained ten-hour day, and calcula
tons as to the cost of the change must,
if made now, be made without regard
to any possible administration econom-
les or readjustments."
1t is further recommended that in
vestigators be appointed to observe and
report to Congress on the workings OF
this plan, but no recommendations
should be made to the end that ''it
should be entirely open to either or
both parties to the present controversy
to give notice OF termination OF the
present agreements with a view to in
stituting inquiries into suggested read
justment OF pay or practice

Louis ID. Hurtig is the attorney that
all these strike breakers call for the min
ute they are arrested.
Louis Fernberg, assistant prosecutor
also, with the right to present cases to
the Grand Jury, is Attorney Hurtig's
partner. Hurtig represents all the nom
union riggers, his father signs all the
bonds for them, and no doubt Fernberg
feels embarrassed whenever he has to
prosecute his partner, Hurtig's clients.
Fernberg is no doubt very glad that none
of them have been indicted so far, be-
cause he would have felt very bad to
have prosecuted man who had paid his
partner fee. Tough luck
Wonder what will hapepn to the non.
union rigger, who Fenton admits shoot
ing, Oscan Drake?
These non-union riggers have been
going through the streets of Cincinnati
armed to the teeth shooting at strikers
and at innocent bystanders alike, and
the police claim they can do nothing
Is it any wonder that strikes are ac-
companied by violence? Who controls
the police department of the city of
Cincinnati to the extent that they dare
not make arrests for carrying concealed
weapons?
These are questions which will be
asked at every political meeting in this
city. And they will have to be answered.
In the meantime union labor should
make up its mind to vote against Jno.
V. Campbell, and not be swayed in its
purpose by any party ties.

RIGHT TO QUIT WORK
MUST NOT BE DENIED

Washington, d. C.-In a letter to the
four railroad brotherhood executives,
President Gompers calls attention to
the action OF the A. F. of L. Executive
Council in extending fraternal greet
ings and support OF the trade union
movement to train service men in their
attempt to reduce hours.
Hints OF compulsory arbitration,
made by opponents OF the railroad en-
ployes, is replied to by President Comp
crS:
'While strike involves temporary
inconvenience which affect many free
workers can not be denied the right to
quit work-the right to strike in fur
therance of demands which concern
their manhood and their interests.
1T is fundamental principle of free
dom that no one shall be forced into in
voluntary servitude, that is, into work
against his will This fundamental prn-
ciple of freedom must be maintained at
all hazards. 1t must not be minimized
under any guise, whether compulsory
arbitration or in the name OF public well
fare.
The welfare of the whole nation. the
maintenance OF our republican form OF
government and our institutions of free
dom depend upon this fundamental-the
right of a free man to control himself
and his labor power.
1T is the sincere desire OF the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor that the rail
way brothcrhoods shall secure the eight
hour work day, an accomplishment
which will mean opportunities for bet
ter living and better citizenship"
