CHICAGO, July 21.-News OF the disap-
pearance of nearly $4,000 from the vaults

deposit company was unable to cope with
the great demand for verification of sigma
lures. and in the vaults the trunkeys for
several hours were unable to open boxes
fast enough to keep down the crowd
The police have secured no clews as yet

longing to the race track men. The man
agement still SCOTS at the idea that the
money has been stolen, but the police take
the bookmakers statements as the truth
They said today that it would have been a
very easy matter to secure duplicate keys
and to have pilfered the boxes.

They Object to the Employment of
Women Workers.

PHILADELPHIA. July 21,-A strike was
naugurated today throughout the country
by the United Goldbeaters' National Union
of America. In this city, according to Ellis
Gray. president of the local union, eighty
six goldbeaters and forty apprentice boys
are on strike. This affects forty girls who
fill the molds for the beaters The tie-up
in this city is said to be complete, and re-
ports received at the local unions head
quarters from New York, Chicago and Bos-
ton indicate that all union men in those
cities are out. There are about 400 gold
beaters in the United States and all are
members of the union.
The claim is made by President Gray
that women receive 1S cents for filing
certain number of molds for which the gold
beaters formerly received so cents. The
beaters, he claims, can earn only $12 to S15
a week. They demand the discharge of the
women filters and that their work be given

GOVERNMENT PRINTING.
It Cannot Be Done by Private
Parties

Controller Tracewell today decided that
the government printing office does not
have to compete with private printing es-
adjustments in work for government de-
partments, and that a department cannot
economic by giving its work to private
| concern whose bid is way below that of
the government printing establishment.
The decision rendered to the Secre-
| tary of the Treasury, who asked a decision
on the following question::
THE department. being about to inaugu-
rate an extensive card-index system in one
of the divisions of the secretarys office,
has obtained estimates for the work from
the public printer and an outside concern.
The public printers estimate amounts to
81. .230.oS while the other estimate amounts
to ST55.
! Section 37S6. Revised Statutes of the
United States, provides that all printing,
binding and blank books for the Senate or
House of Representatives and the executive
and judicial departments shall be done at
the government printing office, except in
cases otherwise provided by law
Would the department be authorized to
award the contract for the work to the low
outside bidder in this case and charge the
cost to an appropriation other than that
provided for the public printing and bind
ing?"
opinion:
| "It is understood that tbs cards to be
used in the card-index system in contem-
plation require printing
The provision quoted by you from sec
ton 37S6 of the Revised Statutes re-
enacted in the act of January u, 1895 COS
Stat, 622). 1t is a positive requirement
that all printing for the executive and
other departments shall be done at the gov
ernment printing office, unless otherwise
provided for by law, and impledly prohibits
these departments from procuring printing
not otherwise provided for to be done else
where. 1t does not admit of any exception
upon grounds of economy or eXpediency,
but it is comprehensive and exclusive.
Il am not aware of any provision of law
authorizing printing for this department
to be done elsewhere, and l have, there
fore. to advise you that you are not au-
thorized to have the cards which yon con-
template procuring printed by any private
