"A

m
'The legal right ef'the Rapid TranMt

peoyes In upheld In (an opinion fur
niched Themas R, Mitten, the preM
dent, by former dudgc .lame. Gay Gor Ger Gor
eon, counsel for tlie cempnny,
' Mr. Gorden holds that the proponed
itra compcnuntlen Sveutd be n cost of
operation and therefore net "earning
, properly distributable as dividends." n
phrase employed in the 1007 contract
between the city and the cempnnv.
The ', Issue wen raised by Mayer
Moere, who questioned the legality of
the bonus, which also had been de
scribed as e "co-operative dividend."
The 1007 contract urevldes thnt the
" city Is te share In P. It. T. preliu after
0 per cent dividend has been paid

Mr. Mitten's letter te the Mayer said :
"The opinion of Judge Gorden, which
was dictated by him at n conference 'of

request, 1m as follews: i
"xm amount pma te the 'men H
Mtrn ompenntlen paid fernervii.es as
a commission, in addition te their regu
lar wages, and is a cost of operation.
It Is. therefore, net earnings properly
distributable as dividends, te use the
language of the 1007 centruct with the
city, and hence, the city lias no right
or Intci est in' the sums thus te be paid
te the men for their work.
"This opinion was given after I had
proposed te the men the method of
compensation by a commission en profits
earned In addition te their regular wage
and after you had suggested the ob
jection that such n method 'of pnving
labor would violate some right ef'the

out and believe all jour doubts nre II II

The Mayer's reply te Mr. Mitten
(cads:

VETERAN SNORTS AT IDEA
OF SCRAPPING WARSHIPS
Old "6Va Deg" at Heme Says Natien Should Keep Prepared
for Possible Future Ocean Battles
"Whnl de I think about this pence
talk? I think It's bunk. The geed
old U. S. A. doesn't need te worry
nbeut making peace with anybody. We
can fight and I'd go tomorrow If the
call enme. Se would every one of the
boys in here."
Alexnnder Melville, seventy-six years
old. a Civil War nnvy veteran, who is
spending liM remaining days In the
Naval Heme, Twenty-fourth street and
Grays Ferry read, fairly snorted his
indignation nt the idea of cutting down
the personnel of the undefeated 'Ameri
can Nnvy.
Melville is n perfect type of the old
"sea daft" of sailing-ship ilajs who
nre rapidly disappearing. He served

afterward for nenrlv thirty
years.
His brother, the Inle Admiral Geerge
Melville, made three expleiariun trips
te the Arctic region, one of them en
the .Tcnnctte. which was fitted our bv
the late James Gorden Dennett. An
ether brother, Jehn, was in the Pnlen
army.
Had Seme Lively Times
"We had some lively times bnck in
'04," reflected the veteran ns he sat
en the edge of his bed lu his cozy tittle
room en the third fleer of the Naval
Heme. "The most important thing I
helped de was early Christmas morning

Instead of ten days te make a trip

uncommon for a three-masted schooner

"Rack about 1875," he said, "we

THE TEST YOU
UK
Your, business stationery may be, well, say or
dinary, and you entirely, unconscious of it. One
gets used t things and loses that sharp sense
with which one appraises new and fresh things.
When you go through your morning mail
you are aware that some letters are better than
ethers, better written, en better paper better
"turned out" in fact.
And such a letter makes a little especial ap
peal te you in spite of yourself, doesn't it?
It is suggested that your letters should have
that effect, that slight b.ut very tangible and
definite distinction in the morning mail of
your most valued customers and prospective
customers. ,
It'is also suggested that Crane's Bend would
contribute te that effect.
