CHESAPEAKE CORP.
UNSEATS YOUNG.
Financier Stays on Board.
Dissolution Delayed at
Least 80 Days. .

NEW YORK. June 1e.-The en-
larged board Of directors Of Chesa-
peake Corp. holding their organization
meeting here yesterday, unseated Rob-
ert r. Young as chairman and post
poned for at least 80 days further con-
sideration Of liquidation and dissolu-
ton Of the company.
The board took no action on divi-
dend ordinarily payable July 1. The
last payment was Is cents q share on
April 2. The board indicated, however,
it would give further attention to the
matter OF . dividend at q meeting in
Cleveland next Tuesday.
No successor was Immediately ap-
pointed to fill the Craftsmanship va
Gated by Young, who Tuesday, at a
Baltimore stockholders meeting, lost
nominal control Of the corporation to
Guaranty Trust Co. Of New York after
a long court fight.
Both Young and Guaranty spokes-
men have stated they favor swift dis
solution Of the company and distribu-
ton of its valuable holdings Of Chesa-
peake a. Ohio Railway stock.
Three Added to Board.
Three directors selected by Guaranty
were added to board Tuesday-EArle
Bailie, John B. Hollister and John L.
Dickinson.
Young remains . director, with one
ally, A. p Kirby.
Bailie, Hollister and two other di-
rectors opposed by Young-C. L. Brad
ley and John p. Murphy-were desig-
mated as a committee to prepare
plan for liquidation and dissolution to
be submitted to the full board in 30
days.
All officers other than Young were
reelected save d. s. Barrett, jr., treas
urer, whose duties were assigned to
Murphy, secretary.
Young issued the following state
ment after the meeting:
In Mr.. Potters affidavit Of April /,
1888, Mr.. Potter said that the Guar
anty Trust Co. refused to take sides
between the Bradley Murphy and Kir.
by-Young factions on the Chesapeake
Corp board, but insisted that the at
titude of his institution was one OF
neutrality
DAnounces Action.
Mr.. Potters neutrality was exem-
plified in todays meeting when
Messrs. Kirby and Young. the only
representative of Allegheny Corps II
per cent interst in the Chesapeake
Corp. stock, were denied all repre-
sentation in officerships and commit
tees and Messrs. Bradley and Murphy,
neither of whom have any stock
interest in Chesapeake or Allegheny
corporations, were made president and
secretary treasurer, respectively, and
were placed in majority control Of all
important committees.
In contrast, when Guaranty's
three NOMINEES came on the c. & o
board they were Immediately accorded
positions on both the Finance Com
mittee and the Executive Committee
in precedence over directors Of long
standing.
1T is fortunate for the c. & o.
stockholders that Mr.. Potter was not
permitted to exercise his neutrality
over the c. & o. board as he has ex-
ercised 1t today over the Chesapeake
board
1T would appear that dissolution Of
the Chesapeake Corp. is again moved
into the indefinite future. for 1t Is now
committed to the tender mercies Of
Messrs Bradley and Murphy"

BY A. F. Of L. Weekly News Service.

By A. F. oil. Weekly News Service.
The movement to secure the enactment of legislation to make Labor
Day a general holiday began in the 1884 convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor which unanimously adopted the following resolution
introduced by A. C. Cameron, a delegate from the Chicago Trades and
Labor Alliance:
Resolved, That the first Monday in September of each year
be set apart as a labOrers' national holiday and that we recon-
mend its observance by all wage workers. irrespective of sex,
calling or nationality"
The 1886 A. F. of I. convention recommended that all wage earners
irrespective of sex, calling or nationality, observe the First Monday in
September as Labors national holiday until it shall be as uncommon for
| man to work on that day as on Independence Day"
During the next few years organized labor devoted its attention to Sc
curing state legislation making Labor Day a legal state holiday. By 1898
the legislatures of twenty-three states had enacted Labor Day laws.

In the meantime officials of the American Federation of Labor endeav-
