MORAL OF THE PACKERS’ STRIKE. The abandonment of all present hope of a peaceful! adjustment of the differences between the packers and| their employees and the threats of a “fight to a finish”) are ominot s of a protracted disturbance of meat prices and the continued mulcting of the public to uphold a) frinciple its view of which is biased by considerations | of personal loss, The question as it resolves itself to the consumer side to the dispute is in the right he is the main suf- | ferer. Nevertheless his personal point of view does | not blind him to the fact that the packers by dec! lining | to ceinstate the strikers have given further evidence of their characteristic contempt of the public welfare, The strikers having agreed to accept the plan of arbi- tration proposed by the trust, which would permit of the reduction of wages origina!ly contemplated, the tefusal of the packers to concede this point would Spptar % put on them the odium for the continuance of the strike. * Meantime the consumer may ask how long he is to remain tous helpless and subject to the costly effects of any disarrangement of the wage schedule in this inaustry, «fislation to correct the abuses which the present labor dispute makes so glaringly apporent. The evil effect of the meat monopoly'’s manipulation of prices has been frequently demonstrated and is well under- ! ttood, Its further capacity ror harm through a labor ; war, whether one instigated by its action or provoked Ms by its policy of obstinate opposition to compromise, while he keeps on paying the bill is that whichever fy q The sole bright outlook for him is the prospect of |!

It has disclosed a new danger from the concentration of products of general con- Sumption in the hands of a few operators which is hardly less alarming than that involved in the arbi- ; trary increase of prices at other times, The need of a law making arbitration compulsory in such contros versies has now been made so entirely obvious as to call fur its speedy enactment. " THE MORTON HOUSE CLOSING, ; : The closing of the Morton House is another step, not ’ without {ts interest and significance, in the northward Movement of hotel and amusement centres A little more than a decade has witnessed the passing , Of the St, Nicholas, the New York, the Metropolitan, : the St. James and the Brunswick, hotels of historic and romantic sasociation, which were almost as well known to the San Franciscan and the resident of New Orleans 4 @ generation ago as to the New Yorker, 1 owertng of- fice buildings mark the sites of four of these old-time] ' caravansaries, The Morton and the Brunswick are des- tined in the course of commercial events to be likewise @yallowed up and condemned to similar oblivion. When the Morton House was in its prime New York had certain elements of celebrity for which the present town offers no exact substitute. What was then the “Rialto” extonded by it. The Union Square Theatre adjoined {t, Wallack’s was around the corner, The Morton was the ub of a dramatic environment which Attained a distinction never equalied on the American @tage. To group together the theatrical lights who Passed in and out through its swinging doors and, crooked elbows at its bar would be to present a ple- |} ture of a galaxy of “stars” which cannot be duplicated in the annals of the local stage The new hostelries excel In onyx and elegance and in the achievements of chefs, but none can exhibit a dis- tinctive clientage such as makes the memories of the Borton or the old New York so uniquely interesting, A POLICE “MISTAKE,” A “mistake” was made by the police last week of a Kind frequently made before, in the arrest of a respectable young colored woman for loitering. A telephoned mes- gage from Magistrate Cornell to the woman's employer corroborated her story against the hearsay evidence of! her accusers, and she was released. Tho Magistrate de- clared his inten'ion of sending the minutes of the case} 4m Police Commissioner McAdoo with a request for an! fovestigation. The woman was fortunate {n being able to prove her fmnocence and escape the addition of a term on the Island to her night in the police station Are there others less lucky making unavailing protest in the re formatory, or are the occasional cases of mistaken ze aly on the part of the police which come out the only one The necessary espionage of the streets out of which these ‘anfortnate occurrences arise gives no warrant for the mis.uous arrest of women on suspicion. | “mistake” of this kind once made is diffcult of rec-| tification. It is better that some suspects should escape! than that there should he one arrest prejudicial to the} character of an innocent person, ,MOSELY AND THE BOYS OVER HERE * phodiboys becoming effeminate through the prevalence of the woman teacher, should take notice of the New| Fork boys who won first prize at the national competi- in public school athletics at St. Louis.
