PRINTERS AND PRESSMEN.
Will Make a General Demand For q
Nine-hour Day.

Milwaukee. Wis, Aug. 25.-The
United Typothetae of America have a
knotty affair to untangle in the nine
hour problem. With two protracted
executive sessions today, the matter
still remains to be Strengthened out.
Both President j. H. Bowen, of the
International Pressmens and Assist
ants union, and George w. Harris, ma
tional organizer of the National Typo
graphical union, gave the employing
printers to understand that it was only
a question of short time when a gen
eral demand would be made for short
hour workday. The unions are willing
to submit to a slight reduction in
cities where the scale is high, but
where the pay is low they ask that no
change be made.
AS the situation now stands, the
employers will either have to grant the
nine-hour day or stand strike of
gigantic proportions. 1t is said sew
eraI of the employers are in favor of
granting the demand without a reduc-
ton of wages; others are willing to
compromise on nine and a half hours
while the remainder are much opposed
to it and are ready to fight.

Revolution In italy.

The recent bread riots in Italy are be-
lieyed to be simply mutterings before
the storm. The trouble is the people
are overtaxed. A great part of their
earnings is taken by the government.
AS times go by the crisis approaches,
and the end is likely to be the same
as In the American revolution. Many
men and women try do too much.
They overtax their system as govern
ments oyertax their subjects. Then
comes a break down. The stomach, kid
neys, liver and nerves are affected.
What is required is medicine like
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters to restore
the strength, and build up new ana
healthy tissues. Any druggist viii sup

MERCHANTS WERE FOOLED.
Thought American Tariffs Would Be
Enforced at Manila.

London. Aug. 26.-The Hongkong cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says: The
retention OF the prohibitive Spanish
duties at Manila by the American au-
thorities is causing concern among
merchants here, who have asked Unit

influence with General Merritt to Sc
cure a modification of them. American
kerosene oil sells here for $3.50 a case,
while at Manila the duty alone is $2.0o.
Flour pays 10 cents a sack.
The object of the Spaniards in inn
posing a prohibitive duty was to shut
out foreign imports II they are re-
taired they viii prevent the importa-
ton of American goods into Manila.
Merchants here in shipping goods to
Manila did so in the belief that the
Manila tariff would be in accordance
with the United States custom laws.
