New York f 8 big Meeting on
the Income Tax.
A WORD ABOUT COAL STRIKES
There Seems to be Little Hope of its
Success as Gaunt Hunger Will
Force a Break Along the Line.
Many Plants Shut Down Rather
Than p.,y Robb r Prices,
New York, June 6 -The past week
has baen a waiting one and there
has been less trading than for seme
time.
As has been the case for some time
the transactions in Sugar Trust cer
tiiicates were again trie feature of the
market during the past weak. The
dealings in these certificates haye
been as erratic as ever.
There is a big gamble in this
stock and it seems that tho insider's
are kept posted on all matters that
come up in Washington relative t>
the Sugar Trust.
The bituminous coal strike is still on
and there seems to be no possibility
of a compromise Tho leaders of th
miners, Mr Mcßride, has a big con
tract on his hands, and it looks as if
there will soon be a break in the
ranks.
It is contended that it is an in
justice to keep the miners from
going to work when they are will
i*jg to begin operations, but jnsi
because a mine operator in a dis
tant section of the country refuses
to accede to the demands of the
strikers no work can be begun un
til every operator agrees to meet
the demands of the miners.
As it happens, there is not much
of a demand for bituminous coal
and in consequence of the high
price asked for it, the consumers
are shutting down their plants
tather than to pay the high price
demanded,
In many respects, the meeting
held at Coreuegie Hall on Fri,
day evening was the most remark
able and impressive of any of the
demonstrations held in this city to
formulate and represent publ’c
opinion that we have had since
toe war.
The meeting was so thoroughly
nonpartisan that it was deemeo
best that no mau who bad been
prominent in solitics in the city
on either side should make any
conspicuous in it, although tha:
action cost us some very eloquent
and powerful speeches. The meet
ing was intended to be an oportu
uity for the expression vs the
opinion of the representative busi
ness men of New York of whatever
party respecting the proposed in
come tax, and it was the most
-uccessful non-partizan effort we
have had here for nearly thirty
years.
The officers of the meeting were
chosen because of their relations
to some of the great departments
of trade or commercial energy,
and the, speakers were selected
with the purpose of having the
protest made by men who are in
cluse touch with our business
life.
Porf. Carlton T. Lewis made a
technical and financial argument,
Ui-ehaps rather prosy to hear but
intensely interesting to read.
• gainst the proposed tax. and Mr.
iohn P. Townsend, one of our
tblest managers, the piesident of
Hie greatest saving bank in New
York State, in a carefully prepar- d
speech, revealed how the operation
>f the tax would rt sllv prove a
great burden upon the poor and
i he great body of savings bank de
positors in Nev York State.
These brief hints will suggest
he nature of the speeches. They
vere simple appeals from basi
ess men to business men, and
he only attacks upon the Demo-

cratic party or reference to it
were those that were made by men
who have hitherto been democrats.
But there was another extr« or
dinary feature of the meeting.
The secretary had recieved more
than 2.000 telegrams coining from
all parts of the country, written
by m n of either party, represent
ing every’ department of trade and
finance, representing in brief,
terse sentences a well c impacted
argument against the proposed
tax.
THE Y. M. C. A
FORCED TO CLOSE ITS DOORS ON AC
COUNT OF NON SUPPORT.
It is a sad fact and a burning
shame on the city of Rome that
the Y. M . C. A . is forced to close
its doors. It was the omy lustitu
tion of its kind in the city, and
the cost of running it is compara
tively small, but it seems that not
enough people in the whole city
could be found, io contribute to it,
to keep it iroing.
Yesterday Mrs. Noble of Aunis
t>n Al*, took out a distress war
rant for rents due her by the As
sociation, and later on Mr. John
Higgins who has worked faithfully
for a very small comp- usatiou
(which he never got) wascompell
ed to take a laborers lean on ’ the
Associations property to protect
himself. It is to be hopped that
there may yet be some way by
which matters can bn arranged and
the Asjooiatiou continued, but,
the prospects are very gloonu 7 .
