Steam VS.. Hand Plate Printing.

DOCUMENTARY TESTIMONY IN FAVOR OF THE
STEAM PRESSES SUBMITTED.
Messrs. Hiscock and Harris. of the sub
committee of the Senate committee on
finance, which is investigating the SUBJ
ject Of plate printing continued the
subject this morning. The further use
of steam-plate printing machines in the bureau
of engraving and printing is practically pro-
hibited by the terms of the appropriation bill
as it passed the House, and the controversy
which has been waged by advocates of
hand and steam work respectively is re-
newed with increased force. Representatives
OF organized labor are opposing the use of
the steam presses, attorney Ralston and
Messrs. Jordan and Kearney being present
this morning. 1t having been asserted by
them that notes printed on steam presses were in
feror to the results of hand work and more easily
counterfeited, the hearing to-day was largely
devoted to these points. Mr.. Drummond, of
the secret service, Treasury department, testi-
ned that his experience did not support tine as
sertion that steam-press work was more sue
cessfully counterfeited than handwork
Secretary Fairchild having said in his annual
report that the great increase in. the work of
the bureau Of engraving and printing during
the last two years has made il necessary to in
crease the number of plate printing presses
operated by steam power. The new presses
have been used to print the greenbacks of
the silver certificates and United States
notes and certain varieties of internal revenue
stamps. Their has resulted in a great
economy of expense and room, and the guam
tity of the securities printed by them has been
satisfactory to the officers Of the department,
by whom they are used, and no complaint has
been heard from the general public, was asked
by letter If he desired to modify that statement
any, and responded in the negative.
Mr.. Henderson, acting commissioner of in
ternal revenue, wrote the committee that the
revenue stamps furnished by the bureau were
satisfactory to all collectors, no complaint hay-
ing been received, and so far the Office here
was concerned they seemed to be as good as
any.
Treasurer Hyatt spoke at some length in ap-
proval of the work of the steam presses. No
complaint against the quality of the notes had
ever been received by the treasurer, and his
observation was that counterfeits of steam
press work were inferior to those of hand
work and easily detected. The bill under con-
sideration, the treasurer saws, requires that the
printing of the seals on the Treasury notes
and certificates now done in his Office, to be
transferred to the bureau of engraving and
printing. There are no facilities in the latter
establishment for doing the work. and the pro-
posed change will add largely TO the cost of
making the notes and certificates, for which no
appropriation is made.
A letter was received from A. c. Cory man.
ager of the Franklin Bank Note company say
that for rapidity, clearness, and perfection of
hand work. All this correspondence was or
dered printed. The subcommittee will close
the hearing next Thursday.

Committeeman Sewall.

BELIEF THAT HE WILL NOT RETURN TO SAMOA.
Judging from what the State department,
officials ssy-that is, from what. they
refuse to say-it is becoming very
evident that the relations between the
administration and Mr.. Sewall, consul
general to Samoa, have recently become very
much strained, owing to the multitu-
dinous utterances of that officer
on the Samoan question since his
examination before the Senate committee on
foreign relations. The impression is rapidly
gaining ground that Mr.. Sewal will NOT

about the matter the State department officials

The Lincoln Portrait.

IT Is INJURED WHILE BEING HUNG IN THE sKN-
ATE GALLERY TO-DAY.
The life-size oil painting of Abraham Lin
coin, which the owner offers to the United
States for $4,000, and over the price of which
there was so much debate in the Senate
yesterday, was to-day taken upstairs and placed
alongside of Moran's painting of the Chasm of
the Colorado on the gallery floor of the Senate.
The picture was a little too large and too heavy
for the force handling it, and one of the re-
suits Of the moving was the tearing of the
picture at point about fifteen inches above the
head of the portrait. About one-thirtieth
of the surface of the painting was damaged,
and if the entire picture is valued at $4,000
then the torn canvas represents loss of $780,
The likeness is pronounced by those who
knew the great President intimately to be re-
markable, and even those who did not know
him see in the painted features wonderful
stimulation of life.
