Reports Upon the Extent of Their Use
In EurODe.

Reports Upon the Extent Of Their Use
in Europe.
Acting under instructions from the State
Department certain consular officers In
Europe have made reports upon the extent
of the use Of typesetting ma chimes in Eu-
ropean countries.
In England the typesetting machine is
not common as in the United States, al
though great many Of them are in use
there. Beyond a characteristic indisposi-
ton to utilize labor-saving contrivances,
there is no apparent prejduice against them
among compostors. 1t develops that as
many compositors have been employed
since the introduction of the machines as
before. and thus the machines seem to be
valued as saving time rather than labor.
The machines cost in Great Britain from
$1,948 to 81, 433.
In Germany they cost $2,61S each.
Printing establishments there have been
somewhat slow In admittig the advan-
tages of the machines over hand composition.
but the tide has finally set definitely in
their favor, and German manufacturers are
now unable to fully supply the demand for
them
There are various opinions as to the
efficiency of the typesetting machine in
Italy, but the impression caused by the
machines has been, for the most part very
favorable. The Tribuna, the largest news
paper published in Rome, has seven of the
machines in use. But owing to the fact
that hand labor in Italy is very i'll paid. and
printing establishments very small
rule, the proprietors naturally hesitate in
investing in a typesetting machine.
The field for the use Of typesetting ma
chimes in France is extensive. The French
are distinctively a reading people, and
every city Of any consequence possesses a
newspaper of large circulation. French
printers are considering the matter of in
agurating the use Of the machines in their
establishments very seriously and IL the
results of experiments about to be made
are satisfactory 1t is probable that within
short time the use of composing
machines will become general throughout
France. The present number Of machines
in use is not great
In Belgium too. the field is large, and tho
machines are looked upon with favor No
American typesetting machines are In use
there, but English, Dutch and German
makes are utilized by several of the lead
ing newspapers Of Brussels. The one i'm
portant obstacle to their Introduction into
private printing establishments is the i'm
possibility Of utilizing the material on hand,
such as movable type. ETC. The machine
now enjoying greatest favor there is the
English linotype duplex product, which
costs with accessories $3,036 or GA pounds.

has taken q rather curious turn
Now that the excitment over the case
has died out to a certain extent the
effort is being made to quash the
whole matter.
Governor McSweeney today re-

Col Neal dropped
Gov McSweeney feels that the
matter is entirely out of his bands
and there is absolutely no occasion
for him to interfere He will take
no steps either to prosecute Col Neal
or to have the cases dropped The
grand jury has found true bills against
Col Neal and he does not feel that
there is anything for him to do.
From the fact that several letters

it is possible that their has been a
