Another Director Who Didn't Know The indignation of Justice Peck ham of the Uuited States supreme court at the acts of the M,eCurdy mauagement of the Mutual Life In surance Company is quite natural, and his resignation as a memter ot the hoard is the only consistent thing he could now do. It is to be regretted that as an associate justice of the supreme court of te United States he should hive been one of the trustees of the Mutual Lite uhder the onditious that have been developed Judge Peckham expresses, in a letter which has beeu made public, hat he learned with astouishrneut the facts establishing the payment of money to influence legislation and to the campaign funds of political parties. He also expresses his as tonishment at the enormous in crease in the salary paid to Mr. MeCurdy." These things have been done says Justice Peckham. with out the slightest knowledge of the board of trustees as a board, and he does not kuow that any individual member of that boar1? was aware of. tbem. There could not be a better illus tration of the dummy director than this. This is said with no spirit of ciiticism of Justice Peckham, whose reputation is beyond reproach. But h-re was one of the most eminent jurists in the country, a member o! the greatest court in the United States, a man of great learning, who while serving as a trustee of this insurance company, was kept in ig norance of some of the most impor tant facts of its administration Even the increase in the salarv of the president to $150,000 a year was not know to him. This exposes the fact that there is something wrong about the pres ent system of control of business enterprises by boards of director. Either there must be some way of securing directors who direct or else the corporation system will go to pieces. Wall Street Journal. A Jolly Afi.iir.

Professor Felix Adler, speaking yesterday bo fora lhe Society for Kthioal Culture, said, among other things. "A new kind of slavery which has grown up in tne last lew years is the employ ment of young children. In south ern mills there are 6o,000 children under the age of I4 working from i0 to I4 hours, besides being com pelled to work alternate nights. Four or five years ago there were only 24,000. There are also 8000 children working in and about mines, and thousands employed lu clothes factories when they should be at home, and this terrible form of slavery is spreading,"
