JOHN GIBNEY AND CHARLES RIDGELY Give Most Exhaustive Ausweis to the Five Questions From Their Standpoint. In continuance ot the views of promi-! njt.t manufacturera upon the question ol the relation? ot labor and capital begun in yesterday's Roister, the following is pre set ted. The questions are reproduced flVK ^I'iiSTlOSS : 1 Are strikt-« and lockout« a necessary teuture of the wage question' 2 la arbina'ion the missing coupling bei ween labor and c&pitai ' May we not hope to discover some ' more sutietactory and equitable basis for tb« divieion ot the profits arising from in dustrial enterprises? t Doos the remedy Iii iu the direction ot industrial partnerships—a mutual par ticipation of all concerned in the protits arising from production ? .). Is productive co operation practicable in the I'niied States ' The replies were numerous and exhaus tive, and combined form a very valuable tddition to the already large mass of in formation bearing upon the present rela tions ot labor uud capita'., aud wh it they should be. The Age of Steel, in its iesue > of January Jd, just at hand, prints a num ber of these replies, among them being found the views of Samuel l.iughlin, Ksq , President ot the Juuction Iron Company, C. H Spuulding, \ ice President and Sec retary ot the Spaulding Iron Company, ot Hrilliant, and John Khmann, Secretary ot the I »bio Vallev Tradea Asaemblv. » H AR! CS KUWEIT, President of the Springfold III 1 Iron Company, and also of the I iisworth Coal Company, says: As it seems to mo, the dissatisfied teeliny among the wot king classes is what we always «itaess in periods of depression in business. There are special causes of tro .Me in tr.any of the diff-rent industries but the discontent is more manifest of late because the iimes have pinched all ol them We are also just now passing from the Condition of a new country with a sparser I' >pul*'ion and undeveloped resources, to lha: of an old one, with a redundant popu lation, and with ail the appliances in th way oi plant, money, transportation, skilled labor, etc., etc., necessary to supply our selves with about all the manufactured goods and in fact everything which we need for the supply of all our daily wautf. »Illt.H THE 1'01'JiTHY »AS KKW and we were importing „'oods from abroad to maki up for the lack of capacity of our own manufacturera and other producers, the prices which obtained were naturally those which were current abroad, plus the coat of transporta:ion, at.d what oih'-rload ing came fro.« the tariff and convenience of delivery. This made a margin fur the payment of higher wages, and to this fact the influx of population in thi-3 country may largely be attributed. No», as one industry alter a^otht-r reaches a point where it can supply the wants of the wnole country prie« s recede. The foreign article ii first shut out of the market, and then a ti*r< e competition springs op aminp th> different home coi.ceri-s with th<' effect of ,'!ill Mrther reducing pri»<s.

URN' TRADE H Dt I I. with industries employing labor largely a üreiit many men are oat of employmen* consequently, when price* are reduced it always huppen-t that prices of labor are re duced. Now it seems to me that with the advent of better times, wages will no in prove with some ot the industries as to silence a great deal of the present com Dlairjf, bat with others, and these wiil largely bo manufacturers. trade will hardly i'iiprove enough to keep them fully em ployed. The tendency i.t priors and of wages will be permanently lower until ot.r costs ot production are reduced to the point that wiil allow of exportation in compati tio'i with foreign goods. Then wa may 1 hope to maintain wagea a' that point 1 whatever it is. Holding these views, 1 think that there will be MOKE AND MORE DIEHCCI.TÏ * in the management of labor, and that our I optiiaticn will become more and more turbulent The trouble is too deep to be reached by any change of method in deal iDgv. ith labor Ir is utterly beyond the control of capital as anything can be And the trades unions ar=* utterly insuih ci«nt in cop ng with it 1 can now answer your direcr questions 1.
