IS NOW AN OPEN SHOP
RoosEvELT's ORDER A BLOW TO
 THE UNIONS.
Case of Miller Discussed By the Un- ionists, But Just What Action They Will Take is
 Unknown.

New York. July 27.-There was long discussion at a meeting tonight at Ty- geographical Hall of the situation arising over the reinstatement of w. A. Miller the assistant foreman of the bindery in the government printing office who had been discharged because he had been ex- pelled from the bookbinders union.
 The meeting was attended by two rep resentatives of the International Book binders Brotherhood. J. w. Dougherty, its general secretary, and J. A. Espy, the financial Secretary and treasurer; by the presidents and secretaries of the va rious allied organizations represented in the government printing office including the Printers, the Pressmen, the Photo Engravers and the Women's Auxiliary and also by President Gompers and Sec reary Morrison of the American Federa- ton of Labor.
 After the meeting the statement was made that no definite action Of any char acter had been taken and that the time had been consumed in u--cussion. No time was set for another meeting and it is said that the present. preference Is to wait for a time to see what action public printer Palmer will take in the case of Miller against whom charges of unfitness have been preferred
 Aside from the immediate interest aroused in the matter by Miiler's rein statement the meHloeI ol Nle NaiiouS OL- ganizations represented say they realize that there is a broader aspect to the whole case They feel that the presi- dents ruling in Miners case practically makes the government printing office an ''open shop" in which a man or woman may be employed whether members of any union or not
 They are anxious that President Roose- welt find some way in which his ruling may be modified so that this condition of affairs will not arise.

TOOLS USED IN
 OPENING SAFES
GUARDED NIGHT AND DAY, THOUGH NO BURGLAR COULD
 INITIATE THEM.
Articles That Come in Hand When The Time Lock Goes
 Wrong.
New York Times.

New York Times.
 We have tools for opening safes," said the foreman of the machine-room of a safe factory, that no burglars could i'm itate even if he got them. But 1t would be one of the most difficult things in the world for him to get even sight of them. The tool room is guarded as closely as a bank vault watchman stays in it all night. We are very care full about employing our men. They must give bonds and have the best of references. The chances of a burglar get ting into our employ for the purpose of learning our methods is scarcely worth thinking about.
 ''Very frequently we have hurry calls for a man to open a safe where the time lock has gone askew or where the clerk has forgotten the combination. You can readily imagine that with a bank or trust company it is an essential thing to have the safe open before business begins. When we send a man out he takes a wagon load of tools, for he must open the safe without ruining the lock, and he does not know precisely what the trouble Is. He carries a photograph of himself. with our credentials on 1t. Nor will he open the safe while alone. Some bank official must remain with him, no matter how long the job takes. That is for our own protection. Some very queer alleged robberies have been charged to men sent out to open safes.
 "To mechanics in our business 1t is laughable to read that full kit of burg lars tools has been found beside a safe As I have said 1t would require an ex- press wagon to carry them, and burg lars don't work that way. If they care to take chances by blowing up a safe with dynamite it is another matter, but those fellows nearly always get caught
 "A police officer told me that burglars make their own tools. The big crooks are all spotted and are afraid to go out and buy the material for them. Some of them send their wives and children. As a general thing they don't work in New York. A man makes tools in a flat or tenement would be likely to attract at tention. They get a house somewhere in the suburbs. Philadelphia, where they can get a brick house for about $20 month, is a great place for them

THE KEARsARaE ARRIVES.
Good Time Was Made by the Battle
 shin

Bar Harbor Me, July N.-The United States battleship Kearsarge arrived at Bar Harbor at 5:42 p. m. yesterday and dropped anchor in the upper harbor. Af- ter the usual formality the representative of the Associated Press was received on board and was the first to greet Captain Hemphill, who expressed surprise that their trip should be of interest to others outside of the navy department. He said: "We left the Needles at 1:20 D. m. Fri day, July r. and passed Mount Desert Rock at 12:30 today. covering the distance of 2,900 miles in nine days, 1-2 hours an average speed of 1916 miles an hour"
 The highest speed attained was lit- tie over fifteen knots an hour, and the slowest ten. Three times during the trip the ship was slowed down, once on account of being in the vicinity of an iceberg and twice on account of a very thick fog. Head winds and thick weather retarded the speed of the ship, and under favorable conditions she would have covered the distance in less than nine days.
 The trip of the Kearsarge has demon- strated that a ship of her class can maintain an average speed of over thtr- teen knots on a long voyage without in- jury to her machinery; that her coal car rying capacity is adequate for trip of 4OOO miles under full speed; that in time of war a ship of her capacity can cross the ocean and engage an enemy at once, and that the Kearsarge is one of the most perfect ships in the world, and fully equol to any emerbency.

Man and Wife Arrested for Killing
 Their Offspring.

Brownsville, Pa, July N.-William c. Arnold, 25 years old, a farmer, was taken to jail in Uniontown tonight charg- ed with the murder of his newborn son. His wife. Mary Fife Arnold, p years old, Is also charged with murder and the legal course will be taken with her as soon as she is able to leave her bed
 Late Friday night Dr. Lilley was sum- moned to the Arnold house, where he found a newborn baby. He was told by one of the parents that he was called in to kill the child. The physician examined the baby and drew from it's mouth a mass of cloth which nearly choked It. He then told the couple that before he would kill the child, he would kill both of them. Yesterday Dr. Lilley, with friend, went to the Arnold home and asked to see the baby. The mother said 1t was dead and had been buried by her hus- band.
 Ofhcers exhumed the body and the coro- ner's jury found that the infant had been murdered and recommended that Arnold and his wife be charged with murder.

WILL DEFEND THE CUP
RELIANCE CHOSEN TO OPPOSE
 SHAMROCK III.
The New Boat Has Demonstrated Her Superiority Over the Con- stitution and the Heretofore
 Invincible Columbia.

Newport. R. l., July H.-After today s race between the Reliance, the Constitu- tion and the Columbia in which Reliance demonstrated her superiority, she was chosen the defender of the Americas cup.
 It was also decided to discontinue the trial races. Messrs. Morgan of the Co., lumoia. and Bettman of the Constitution were satisfied with the choice. They are both of the opinion that the Reliance is the fastest of the three. From the show ing of the three boats during the season, the Reliance Is fairly entitled to be the defending vessel. In every race she has crossed the finish line ahead and mas lost but four events on time. It Is thought the defender will proceed to Bristol for a thorough overhauling.
 The three yachts raced over a leeward and windward course today. there was a pulling northwestern of fifteen miles strength blowing when the starting signal was given at Il 30. The Reliance was first to cross the line, and the Constitution crossed soon after and the Columbia fol- lowed few seconds behind the Constitu- ton.
 The Constitution ran by the Reliance shortly after the start, and at Il 40 when the Columbia was almost on even terms with her. but Reliance set her spinnaker flying on the starboard. The new boat felt the effect immediately and slowly regained the stretch of water that separ- ated her from the Constitution. mile from the turn the Reliance got by the Constitution and turned the mark just ahead of her. Meantime the Columbia had fallen away in the rear. Hauling sheets around the mark the Reliance began beat ing out to the weather of the Constitu- tion and after that the new boat drove ahead and to windward steadily. The Co., lumbia sailed a fast race to windward and by fortunate slant of wind close un- der the Newport shore, hauled up so much on the Constitution that the latter barely brought her across the finish line.

The hotel mad 40 guests and all were saved, though Mrs. John z. Lowe of Norfolk. wife of the proprietor, died afterward as 2 re- suit of excitement.

 The guests lost practically all their ef- fects and some even lost what cash they had on hand, leaving them destitute.
 The crew of the United States life sav- ing station nearby rendered all possible assistance and the guests were cared for last night at the life saving station and ky cottagers near by.
