Justice Hand, I;i presenting the teport
of the commllloo on resolutions, said:
It mi- bo expected II at I should say a woid
after the prctntntlon of these lesolutlons. I
wish to y.y tli.it after tlie printed sketch of our
deceasu! In other, whiih vv.11 prepared bv- and the
irttlit of which 11 duo to the president of this
association, tlieio is very little for any of us to
saj Jly a-noci.illon with the biothcr gone iuns
as fir back as ny incmorj. It is too tender Ie.
mention here. I will begin at the time when my
association commenced with him in tho 1 elation
of a student for the bar. I cnteied his ollke as
.1 student. He was just as gootl .1 teacher for the
student in bis ollke as lie was a pleader befo'e
the comt. Ho was nio-e ihn a teacher to inc.
After I had lonipleled m.v studies and had
been admitted to the bir of &UMiichaiuia count.v,
and was stiidiing a map to see whit place in tho
West I would place my Mime labois, he c.iiuo
to me and said, "Let us go to Scianlon." The
firm was (lien formed in which I began my pica
cut caiecr.
He showed his chaiaclei as a teacher in another
qualification, nnd H1.1t was, he knew how to put
lcsponsllillltj- on to tip schohr, and the thing
lint astonished mo wis the amount of tlie ie-spomlbllltj-
(hat was rhoved back on me whin
I lmdeitook to tluovv it off, and if 1 owe smi
thing to success In life, it is lo tho'o two facts,
tint I hid .1 teacher v.lio knew how to in limt
me, and I li.ul a teacher who knew' how to mile
me meit lesponsildlitj-. We lmc lost one who
we wish Ind stijetl longer with us.
The resolutions -were as follows:
The lnr of Laikiwanna rountj- is called to e.y
f.uevvelt to a Mother beloved, a rival lespccled.
a lavjci gifted and learned, a cituen Iionoied
ami tiusled, :i Cluistian clowned witli an ever

fn'end to lie sought for help and kindness. n
this fiaternil piescnco let us each in heirt do
jii'tiiu to our fallen hero. We who hive nut him
in t'10 am a of legal battle and won, where wo
found him a foriinu wnitb.v of our steel, in our
unccilty and skill, did it not dawn upon us that
he might win?

with courage anil cheer, blnrciilj- with dUcictlon,

It was to him a labor of a lifetime, as it is to
all of us, in ouler to peifect a chancier which
could sliliic without paiade for his Mi,ter.

Judge Jessup was a lawyer of coniunndliig

It. nor weie the facta of an' case ever so In

was ,1 powciful ppcakri, to vvlicm a liny could
not but lislen, and his atlvocaey of a case or a

Notwithstanding his jeais, he laboicd lo the

vigor of manhood, nnd It was illlllcult to leall?.!
tiiat he had pas.ed far bejond that mark. Of

SHARED IN THE
YEAR'S PROFITS
EMPLOYES
WORKS
OF THE STOVE
MADE HAPPY.
When tho Shop Shut Down Yester
day tho Mon Wcro Assemblotl nnd
After a Short Address by Prosldont
Lansing 10G of tho 875 Employer
Received n Sharo of tho Profits of
Works for tho Ycnr 1001 Total
Amount Distributed Was Between
$3,500 nnd $4,000.
Theio was a shailng of profits at tho
Scrunlon Stove works yestcrduy after
noon for tho llrst time, when between
33,500 nnd $1,000 was divided among 1C3
ot the 275 employes of tho woiks. About
110 were not eligible to sharo In this
illvWIon ot profits.
At G o'clock, lifter the day's work was
completed, the men assembled In a
large room adjoining the ofllces nnd
President J. A. Lansing delivered n
short address to the men, during which
division of rroilts of tho works during
tlie year 1901.
One jcar ago I lead to jou u pioposlllou of
piofil shiilng which we would put Into tone for
the J ear 1001. It is my pleasure to lepoit lo jou
todiy that Tieasurer Puller Is prepared to pay
jou ine uiviilcuiM ns per the ptoposal made and
lcsults shown for Hie jeur.
We icgiet tint all of our employes do not come
under (lie piovisloia of our proposition only
(hose continuously in our employ from June 1 to
IVrcinbcr 1 icccive thin prisenl, or dividend.
As I stated to jou one jear ngo, our proposil
was an entirely new and original otic.. Wo had
no other establishment's oNpcriciiec to guide U3
as to Hie plan and prospective results. Manu
facturers with whom the officers of this com
piny discussed this piojcct advised against it,
stating that it would be leirlved with suspicion
nnd if no piollts or dividends were made, the
gcneial Impression would be tlm we had deceived
our emplojcs,
You will doubtless remember that I 6latcd to
j'ou that unless the busiiuss and profits weio
larger Hun (he year 1000,- there would be noth
ing to divide. Tlie margins In the utovc manu
facturing business are never laige. The product
ive capacity of this industry in normal times
aie in excess of the demind or consumption of
stoves. This j-ou can leaelily see by lcferring
back to Hie weeks nnd monflis ot idleness each
j ear in most foundries. Dcsides, we are face to
face with this problem: An ever Incieaslng de
mand for oil, gasolne and gas 6tovcs for cook
ing, and steam and furnaces for heating. An
over-piodiietlon alwajs means a breaking down
oi price and piolils. 'iho year Just closed showed
the Ingest business in our histoij-. Had we been
able to have produced mole Goods, It would have
been much laigcr.
liefcrring to the workins out and the more
liannonious lclatlons in our shop under this new
eipciiment, we cinnot say lint the lesult has
been altogether satisfactoij-. While many em
plojes (and theio is not one connected with this
company who is not an emplojc) nave given the
eonipiny the most Icijal fidelity and support,
many have not done so. not onlv to their mm ..m.
baira.ssmer.t and loss, but lo the loss of all.
Peihaps vvc were too confident and expected too
much and it might be hirer to say that wc are
rather surprised that so many took us at our woid
and did their very best. At any late, we boar
all good will and compliment sou o.i lecclvlng
something, which if not large or handsome, is
extiemcly useful to have around tho house.
THERE TWENTY YEARS.
Mr. Lansing said that on Feb. 1 it
will bo twenty years since lie and tho
treasurer, A. C. Fuller, cast their for
tunes with the Scranton Stove Works
and many of their emploj-es have been
with them almost from that time until
tiie present. During these twenty
years they paid out millions of dollars
in wages and had never once defaulted
In their weekly payments,
The directors have not yet passed
upon tho question of continuing the
profit sharing arrangement for 1002, ho
said, and he could not say what they
will do with reference to it. He con
cluded by wishing Ills employes a
happy and prosperous year and as ho
finished he was heartily cheered.
Tho names of those entitled to a
share in the profits were read by Treas
urer Fuller and the cashier turned
over to the men tlie sums they were en
titled to. Some received ns high as
$40.
It is a unique sj-stem that was em
ployed in the profit sharing at the
stove works and it originated with
President Lansing. Out of the net prof
its of the company a dividend of 5 per
cent, was declared on the working cap
ital and the balance was the fund to
bo divided. The amount earned by
each employe during the year was
added to the capital and on tills he
received his pro ratio sharo of the
earnings over und above the live nor
cent, dividend in the same manner as
the stockholders, tho workman's dollar
of earnings having exactly tho same
value as the dollar of tho stockholder.
THOSE WHO SHARED.
Only those who were employed con
tinuously in the stove works from at
least the first of last July until tho end
of the year were entitled to a share in
tho profits. Tho floaters who como and
go had no part in It. One of the ob-

jects of the plan is the encouraging of

The stove works had a very prosper
ous year and President Lansing said
yesterday its output would have been
much larger than it was if they could
have secured more men.
Few residents of Scranton havo any
idea of the magnitude of these works
or the admirable manner in which the
buildings are laid out. Tho comfort,
convenience and safety of the work
men was kept constantly in mind when
the buildings were designed and tho
result achieved are most gratifying in
their results.
