Governor Abbett is determined to prevent the consummation of the Reading deal. He will not call an extra session of the legislature, as was his first intention, because prohibitory legislation is not necessary. There is a law sufficient to break the combine, he says, and it will be invoked at once. Attorney General Stockton has been directed to appeal to the court of chancery to havo declared invalid the lease of the New Jersey Central to the Port Reading Railroad company. If' the court grants such a decree the combine will be broken, as control of the New Jersey Central is necessary to the success of President McLeod's big schemei The Port Reading is owned by magnates of the Philadelphia and Reading and the Lackawanna and the Jersey Central were leased to it a few years ago, as it now turns out, for the especial purpose of this deal.

The New Jersey Central could not be leased "directly to the Philadelphia and Reading because the leasing of home corjorations to foreign corporations is not permitted by the Jaw of New Jersey. A Corporation on Paper Only. The attorney general to sever the tie between the New Jersey Central and the Port Reading will allege that the latter is a corporation on paper only and- has no existence in fact but only ill name. In support of the allegation he will show that the Port Reading has never made any return to the state board of assessors for the purpose of taxation. The law requires all railroad companies to return valuations annually.

The failure of Port Reading to comply with the law, accord ing to the authorities hem, proves its insignificance and its insignificance as a corporation will be relied upon for proof to sho that the leasing of it to the New Jersey Central is an evasion and fraud on the law forbidding leasing to foreign corporations of nonresident owners.

No coarse and uglvdead prominent labor leaders in the anthracite, region, said last night that the spirit of un-: rest was-universal. among the workiugmen. "They have waited patiently," he said, "for some bona fide action by the state government looking to the enforcement of the constitution against the combine, but have become disgusted at the evident insincerity of those in a position to bring the combine to terms. Now they propose to take the matter into their own hands. The men say that in order to pay the guarantee given by the Reading one df two things must be done.

i "The price of coal must be advanced forty cents a ton or the wages of the miners reduced 7J-f to. 10 per cent. They cannot see how it is possible to advance the price of coal in the market, and they conclude that the only other alternate is left a reduction of their wages to the starvation point. "Jf is the universal opinion that the policy of retrenchment alreadyinaugurated by the Reading will bear heavily ujion the miners, and for the sake of their homes the men are determined that the constitution shall be olteycil or serious trouble will follow."

Symbol Next time you drop in on your barber to have a suave or your hair cut ask him why he has a pole wit white and red stripes on it at his door. The chances are that he will tell you it is to let people know there is a barber shop in the vicinity. Ask him why such, a pole represents a barber shop and tell him not to talk politics or the weather to you until he has answered and you will have a quiet time of it. Of course you know, but in case you don't want tc bother telling him just clip this item and induce him to paste it in his hat. In olden times blood letting was believed in and the ancient barber was the man who made a specialty of it as, also, some of them do today.

The pole has nothing tc do with hair cutting or shaving; it represents the blood letting end of the profes-siyh. The red stripes indicate the flow of blood, the white stripes the linen bandages used after the operation. If you succeed in cornering your barber on this question, ask him not to talk so much until he acquires some information worth imparting. Detroit Free Press. COAL.
