IMPENDING STRIKES

q
will have greater effect on business and
comfort then any that have ever pre-.
viously been experienced.
The first, ls an impending stricke of
the anthracite coal miners. Many of us
can remember what the effect of such a
strike had on US that live here in cold
climate. What might have finally re.
suited il Roosevelt had not taken the
coal barons 6guratively il not actually
by the ears. we do not know, what he
said to them has never been given out
but the strike was soon over. The pre-.
sent proposed strike is more extensive
and a new feature is that they propose
to make the contracts with the owne rs
to expire in the feature at the same
time as do the contracts of the bitumin.
GUS miners. with the object of having
the power to all join in simultaneous
strike in the future.
Such strike great as it's conse-
quences would be, is insignificant CON-
pared with strike which is said to be
now being submitted to vote among the
members of the four great and most in
+telligent railway brotherhoods, that of
the engineers, the tiremen. the conduct
ors and the train men. Practically all
railways from Chicago west and south
are affected. In the latter case the rail.
way men are asking according to the
managers for about 30 per cent increase
in wages and an eight hour day. The
proposed raise means, according to the
same authority, about hundred mill
lions of dollars per year increase in
wages. They also say that the eight
hour day on railway is different af.
fair than that in factory or shop. A
days work in the factory is a days
work whether the hours be ten or less,
but in railroading there are two ways of
figuring days work. either in hours or
miles. A hundred mile run is days
work no matter how much less than ten
hours it may take to run it. When a
man cheks up his ''day" he takes hours
or miles, whichever is best for him.
Further, no matter how short the time
or how few the miles, 1t Is days work
if the train man is called to work.
This is the situation as the managers see
it. They claim that the railroads can.
not stand the increase in wages unless
fares and freight rates are correspond
ingly increased. 1t is true that while al
most everything else has increased in
cost during the last few years that there
has been no corresponding increase in
railroad charges.
+. That is to say, that the threatened
strokes Of the coal miners and the rail.
way unions is practically and will ulti.
mately and actually be strike against
the people who are buyers Of coal and
patrons of the railways-and that means
every man, woman and child in the
whole country.
Really, it is simply question whether
the general public are willing to advance
and pay the wages of these employees or
not.
What are You going ito do about it
dear people? 1t is up to you. You will
have the bills to pay.
This paper has often expressed its |
opinion in the past that 1t is absurd to
permit active disputants to settle their
own controversies with strikes or lock.

which are but struggles OF might with

BANKERS TO MAKE
LOAN TO CHINA
Believed Initial Amount Between
Five and Ten Millions.

Announcement Friday that Lee, Hig-
cinson & Co. have been appointed fis-
cal agents for the Chinese government
TO place bond issues in this country
was followed yesterday by the add
tional statement that the Guaranty
Trust Company will be associated with
them.
A new Chinese loan in the form OF
short-term treasury bills is expected
70 be brought out in this market
shortly. While it was said that no
definite amount has been agreed upon,
it was understood in banking circles
that the first loan will be between
S5,000.O00 and sl0000,000.
If the financing proves successful II
Is believed that the initial offering will
be followed by larger issues. The
pending financing of ChiLa's needs IS
the first that has been heard OF any
Chinese loan here since the days Of the
negotiations for the so-called six
power" loan. about three years ago.
Those negotiations failed so far as
American bankers were concerned be-
cause Of the attitude Of the Admins
tration at Washington. when William
Jennings Bryan was Secretary of State,
toward loans by Americans TO for
eigners or foreign nations. Mr.. Bryan
summoned representatives of J. 7.
Morgan & Co. TO Washington and in
formed them that If they or any other
bankers participated in any loan TO
China they would do so at their own
risk

MORTGAGES SHOW
GREATER ACTIVITY
Heavier Investing in Real Estate
Indicated by Loan Records.

"Rcal estate men are naturally
optimistic. and it is, therefore, custom
airy to discount their predictions OF
improving conditions" said u. Nor
genthau. jr., yesterday. at must.
therefore, be extremely encouraging 20
find. as we do al the close of this first
quarter of 1916, that more money has
been invested in real estate. as indi-
Gated by the mortgage records. than
for a similar period in several years.
"These records will bear very close
study. as they certainly indicate a
changed condition OF considerable mo-
mcnt. For several years each success
sive period has shown less money in
vested in both new mortgages and eX-
tensions Of old mortgages. compared
with the corresponding period of the
year previous. in both Manhattan and
The Bronx. These figures are, approx
mately. as follows:
"For the first quarter Of 1913 the
mortgages and extensions OF existing
mortgages in Manhattan totalled about
SIS, 5000 in 1914 they fell TO n little
over S55.000.00O; in 1915 the total fell
below $40. 100000. whereas in 1916 the
total for the quarter just closed has
reached about s5O,0O0000. Similarly
in The Bronx in 1913 the total was a
little over S15,000.O0O; in 1914 slightly
less than 100000. and last year
shade under 100000. whereas this
year tho total comes 10 very nearly
Sll.500000 The total for Manhattan
and The Bronx, including new mort
cages and extensions Of existing mort
cages. for the first quarter Of 1916 has,
therefore. reached a total OF very near
~ SCI 100000. as against less than
$40, 100000 the total last year for the
same quarer.
without doubt these figures reflect
return Of confidence and easy money
conditions. The tide has definitely
turned. and II the present rate Of in
crease continues we should soon over
take the figures Of 1914 ! look for a
strong demand for good mortgage in
vestments. and believe that this will
stimulate the real estate market dur
ing the coming spring"

BILL AMENDING
TORRENS LAW
Third Reading for Meas
ure Remedying Present
Title System.
By GILBERT RAY HAYES.

The Committee on General Laws
Of the Assembly has agreed upon the
form of the proposed bill to amend
the present Torrens Land Title Regis
tration law. The bill has been ordered
TO its third reading. and there Is every
prospect that 10 WIZ be passed by the
Legislature. This is a vast improve
ment upon the former law. Some of its
chief advantages follow:
10 provides m section 81 that ap-
plication may be made 10 any justice
OF the Supreme 4ourt, within the Ju-
aicial department where the property
is situated. and that the action shall
be tried IN the county where the appli-
cation is filed.
It provides in Section 978 that tho
owner of contract for the purchase
of land may apply for registration
upon the duly acknowledged consent
of the owner Of the fee" without re-
curing that such owner be in actual
occupation Of the premises.
L. provides in Section $50 that the
examiner OF title may receive in evil
dence and may base his report upon any
official search or abstract issued by a
title insurance company, etc.
IL provides in Section 3S5 that II any
defendant controverts any allegation or
statement, etc, the facts controyerting
such allegation or statement must be
specifically pleaded and set forth in
the answer separate and apart from the
denials and allegations answering the
complaint"
II is also provided in Section 3S5
that no omission or defect in any order
directing an action 20 register title
TO be commenced. or IN the papers or
proceedings upon or IN which such
order is made. shall deprive the court
Of jurisdiction TO make such order, or
OF jurisdiction IN the action, or in any
way affect the courts jurisdiction. The
summons shall name rs defendants the
