Protest Against Keeping tho Governmen t
Printing Office Union Concern.
MILWAUKEE April GA memorial was
sent to President Cleveland from the head
quarters of the International Printers
Protective fraternity. setting forth that
the government printing Office has been for
years under the domination OF the Inter-
national Typographical union to such ex-
tent that it has been impossible for any
citizen not member of that union to OBJ
tain employment therein; that the total
membership of the International Typo
grahical union in the United States
and Canada does not exceed 270oo.
while the whole number of persons
engaged in the printing business in this
country is estimated az above 125.00o.
showing that more than four-fifths of the
printers of the United States are de-
frauded of their rights under the constitu-
tion to seek employment in government
printing offices.
The memorial says the claim of the typo.
graphical union that il contains greater
proportion of skilled and competent work.
men cannot be substantiated. The memo
rial does not ask the appointment of
public printer from its ranks. but suggests
that the Office be filled by competent cit
izen who is not allied in any manner with,
or liable to be co ontrolled by. any organiza-
tion of psinters.

PARIS. April 5.-The court Of arbitra-
tion regarding BerinR sea resumed it's ses-
sion. Hon. L. j. Phelps counsel on be-
half of the United States continued his ar
gument. He contended that the British
supplementary report was insdmis sable.
Admission Of new evidence at this stage,
Phelps said, was gross injustice to the
United States. because 1t deprived the
| United States Of any chance to adduoe re-
buttinR testimony. Phelps discoursed at
some length on the technical meaning of
the treaty of arbitration and the condi-
tions and methods to procedure to be fol-
guiding the policy to the United States"
said Phelps, when Great Britain pre-
sented her counter case at the last minute.
would then and there have refused to
proceed with the arbitration. Great
Britain's conduct was not only unjust, but
sir Richard Webster interposed the re-
mark that Great Britain announced in the
counter case the production at future
date of the Berinp sea commissioner re-
lort. Mr.. Phelps said he had not been
aware Of this. The whole report. he said,
neither answered nor commented upon by
the United States.
Sir Charles Russell said he had not ex-
pected much discussion. He felt quite un-
prepared for this extraordinary heat on the
part or the opposing counsel. He WAS ex-
trsmely surprised that Great Britain should
be charged with injustice In her conduct of
the proceedings preliminary to the meeting
Of the court. There was no intention on
the part of Great Britain to use the
reports Of tho Boring sea commits
sion as bearing upon the ques-
tion of right before the court.
Counsel for the United States attempted
throughout the sittings of the tribunal to
foroe this matter upon the commissioners
as If the only one question before them.
Sir Charles Russell thcn justified the pro-
duotion of the report Of the BerinR sea
commission. arguing from the terms of the
arbitration treaty. If, he said, the sole OBJ
jeot of the report is to assist the tribunal to
gain information as to the regulation Of
practical matters at issue, the report then
must be admitted to evidence under the
articles governing the procedure Of tho
court of arbitration. Sir Charles Russell
then read the article in question and the
court adjourned.
