President King lut evening made known,
by means of a brochure addressed to I“ of
its employer, its replyto the demands of
ill engineers, conductors, firemen and
tniumen undo some days ago. These do-
nuudlnumbered eighty-thrice and related
to s schedule of paysnd vegulntlonn to
govern the employer of the road. They
came from the "federated body of em-
ployu of the system." The demands no
refund. The reply says:
President King's Reply.
“The company is uunblo to ndvnnne
wages genenlly. It does not expect or
desire to pay less wages for similar service.
than those paid upon competing and ad-
jucent roads, but on the other hand, as it
meant obtain higher rates for transport.-
tion it cannot afford to pay rates higher
than those of its competitors. And the
fact is that. its present rules nreelmost
without exception higher than the average
paid by them. In the few instances where
it is not the case the company will, how-
ever, readjust its votes.
With the Kindest of feeling;
“So far as the management of the cor-
pomla business and the employment mid
discipline of the company’s officials are
concerned those matters are committed by
lnwtotbe wise discretion of the officers
end directors in office when questions re-
garding the some may arise. No one has
power to make any arrangements or con-
tracts which will be effectual, to deprive
them of that discretion. The interest of
ull concerned-of the employes no less than
of All others-require that the law in these
respects should be obeyed and the stability
and efficiency of the corporation be thus
insured. But the officers of the company
will continue in the future, as they have
in the past. to faithfully endeavor to pro-
mote the welfare of each and every eni-
ployo, as well as the etlicieucy of the serv—
ice."
The Ten flour Question.
Of the demand that ten hours shall con-
stitute a day‘s work the reply says: "One
of the articles of the schedule proposes that
ten hours shall constituted day‘s work and
overtime slinll be pnld for at the rate of
onetenth day per hour. While this ap
parently relates to iln- length of time dur.
ing which employees slillll be on duty. it is
in fact a proposition for no increase of
wages. The proposition is not to limit.
continuous hours of work to ten, but. is
merely that any time beyond the limit
shall be paid for as extra work. '
The Trip System.
”The system of pay in force is the trip
lystuti; all runs are computed as n day, or
more than a day. we the length of the divis—
ion may warrant. it is manifest that. many
of the regular trains occupy much less
than ten hour-xi, The present proposition
is that for every hour in excess of ten oc
cupied by it run, additional wages shall be
paid. But lithe runs are to in paid for
strictly by the hour. it would nutlimlly
follow that for every hour less than ten
wages would be correspondingly reduced."
There May no in Ruth».
A reporter saw Chiiirmnu Youngson last
night and he did not care to make any
statement. "We shall hold 1 meeting at
Jersey City Friday," he sold, "and con-
sider the mutter. “
"What do you think of the refusal to
grant your demands?"
“1 have nothing to say now."
"is it true that the Erie pays higher
wages that competing lines?"
“So; it pays less."
"You said some time ago that the men
would insist on their demands?"
“if we did not intend to insist on them
they would not have been formulated,"
and then Mr, Youngson withdrew.
The committee is said to have full power
to act in the present vii-w, nlnl it may not
do no for several duys, and then again it
may. The men lire reported to be in no
mood for trifling, and some of them think
that the compuny is pinyin; a grime of
blutf.

hardly seems possible that the Pullman

out the Sessions patent l can discover
nothing in the prior state of the art which
Anticipates the Pullman patent, or which
should render it void for want of patente-

Concerning the Sessions patent granted
to H. H. Sessions: Nov. l5, 1887, which was
applied for two weeks before the Pullman
application was made and which the de-
fendants contended *lescribed what is
claimed as the Pullman invention, Judge
Colt says that Sessions set out to solve cer-
tain evils incident- to n train of cars—
nnmely, to the starting and stopping of
them and to a swaying when they are mov-
ing. 01: the other band Pullman under-
took to overcome the difficulties incident
to u vestibule connection between curs,
end this be accomplished by means of
“flexible or adjustable joints to permit of
sufficient movement between individual
passenger curs.” The court could not hold
Sessions to be the prior inventor. it would
seem to be unjust for the court, by infer-
ence, to incorporate the Pullman invention
info the Sessions patent, and thus prevent
both inventors from deriving any benefit
from this improvement, becausg if the
Pullman patent were destroyedfi ssions
could derive no benefit from the ullmnu
invention, as be nowhere describes or

In conclusion, the court ordered a decree

Where wilt Thou? What will. thou! Not

10. “And He said unto them, Behold,

follow him into the house where be en-

11. "And ye shall say unto the good mun
of the house, The Master saith unto thee,
where is the guest chamber. where Ishall
cat the pansovcr with my disciples?" He
not only tells us when and where to go and
how to act, but He also tells us what to
say. in the gospel by John He very often
speaks of Himself as sent by the Father,
and not only so, He says the Father gave
Him a commandment what He should say
and what He should speak (John xii, 49).
So when He sends His disciples He tells
them just what to soy (Mutt. x, 7, 19; Luke
xix, 31). When the prophets were sent
forth they, too, were specially instructed
to speak only the Lord's message (Jer. i, 7;
Ezek. ii. 7; flag. i. 13). And well would it
be for all preachers and teachers if they
were always the Lord's messengers, speak‘
ing the Lord‘s message.

‘the oneness of Christ and His disciples.
“Father, i will that those whom thou hast
given me be with me where I am” (John
xvii, 34). Here is a willing owner of a
house; it looks as if he must be a disciple;
be will offer is large furnished room, and do
it cheerfully. Are our homes aschcorfull'y
