MILLER IS RElNSlATED.
GOVERNMENT BooKBINDERs
 DEBATING 4 STRIKE.

Foreman's Certificate of Reinstatement
 from the Civil Service Commission
 Reaches Public Printer Paimer--
 Secretary oorteiyoa says tho In-
 cident is closed. Af
 Washington, July 24.W. A Miller, the foreman of a division in the govern rnent printing office, against whose re- instatement the Bookbinders' union is fighting, appeared at the government printing office to-day, and tomorrow morning will report for duty under in sstructions of Public Printer Palmer. The bookbinders held 3 mass meeting tonight to discuss tfR matter of a strike It is understood that the union decided to take no definite action one way. or the other for at least three days. It is also said that this is partly due to the prospective visit of the executive committee of the international union, whose advice and Assistance have been sought in the matter. The bookbinders have asserted that they will walk out if Miller goes to work, and that the allied trades will take sympathetic ac- tion.
 The civil service commission issued a certificate of reinstatement, which reached the public printer about noon to-day, and MT. Palmer announced that, in accordance with the order, MT. Miller. would return to work tomorrow norsn- ing, unless there was meantime some executive order to the contrary, which, he said, was very improbable. He de- clined to discuss his policy. and said that he did not believe the bookbinders would strike.
 Secretary Cortelyou has advised the Bookbinders' union that the charges against Mr. Miller are matters for the consideration of the public printer, as they involve an employe of the latter's office. He also advised them that the question settled by the presidents order of reinstatement and the charges of un- fitness as an ernploye now pending are separate and distinct subjects, the for mer question being regarded as a closed incident.

JAPAN,S WARLIKE SPIRIT.
Russia DecIa, cd to be Desirous oi Pence.


 London, July 24-A dispatch to Reu- ter's Telegram company from St. Pe- tersburg, dated July 20, says: M ... The attitude of Japan and the war like tone of the majority of the Japan ese press have attracted much attention in official circles here. It is declared by the best informed people that there is no likelihood of war, certainly not upon Russia's initiative. It is stated that Russia has every motive for desiring peace, chiefly for financial reasons, with which are wound up desire for exten- sive domestic reforms which the gov ernment considers to be the most effica- cious manner of disarming internal dis content and nipping the revolutionary propaganda in the bud.
 It is believed to be impossible, from the Russian viewpoint, for Japan to em- bark in a contest with Russia single handed, and it is not thought she will secure the material support of Great Britain or the United States. Never theless, Russia is taking every precau- ton to strengthen her military and na- wal position in the Orient, believing this to be the surest means of discouraging Japanese aggression.
 M. Lessar's Port Arthur conference is said to have dealt chiefly with these measures, though they are declared to be entirely precautionary, war being the farthest thing from the wishes of the Russian government.

A. o. U. ". PLAN REJECT ED.
Roasing Meeting o9 Israel Punam
 Lodge Iast Night

There is strong probability that the recent proposition of the Supreme lodge, A. o. U. W, regarding changes in the tplans of assessment, will be turned down coldly by the subordinate lodges lQf this city, and Connecticut, and from sentiments expressed last night 1t is more than likely that New England will stand solid against the proposed plan. A rousing meeting of Israel Putnam lodge, A. o. U. w, which has over HOO members, and is the largest lodge 1 in the state, was held in it's hall on Or ange street last night. There was an exceptionally large attendance and much discussion Of the proposed plan was entered into. It was, however, all | in favor of the rejection of the plan, and a vote taken was unanimous for re- jection. E.
 It was decided that a committee be appointed to confer with the other lodges of the city, nine in number, lay
 before them the vote of Israel Putnam, and have them take some action. This committee is composed of William T.
 Neville, James T. Currier, T. R. O'Con- Iltll, WdlISF LelSH anu JOllIl 11UWdTQ. IL
 is certain that this movement set on foot by Israel Putnam to defeat the plans of Supreme Workman Miller of
 Missouri, will have some effect on the other lodges of the city and state and
 several men high in the ranks of the
 order said last night that New Eng
 land would certainly not adopt the plan.
 It was set forth at the meeting that
 Connecticut in particular and all the
 other New England states in general are self-sustaining and never call on the
 supreme lodge for assistance. On the
 contrary they are continually assisting
 lodges in other states and have con-
 tributed the greater percentage of the
 $46, ,000 recently paid last month to
 lodges in New York, California, Monta-
 na,s Kentucky and other states. In the past year New England has contributed
 over million and half dollars to
 other grand lodges in other jurisdic-
 tions. The New York grand lodge re-
 ceived the largest amount of any.
 u Seeing that affairs are in such good condition it is stated by the members of
 Israel Putnam that there would be no
 need for the adoption of the proposed
 plan in that it would be of no benefit,
 but in the opinion of the local members
 a serious detriment. "A

Defeat Larnsd and Wright in Tennis
 Championshlp.
 Boston July 24.-Ward and Ware practically won the eastern doubles championship at Longwood to-day, de- feating Larned and Wright, who had just finished victorious in their contest with the Wrenn brothers. Both match es were hard and took the full five sets, and although the result proved Ward and Ware and Larned and Wright practically evenly matched, it seemed to indicate that the Wrenn brothers were not in class with either of the other two teams. Whether they will be able to improve enough to justify their selection as defenders of the Davis cup is, of course, another question.
 The rest of the card to-day was light, and nothing of great importance will be pulled off tomorrow.
 In the afternoon at 2:30 the Dohertys will play an exhibition match with Ma honey and Cfothier, and other matches in the four events will be played. The semi-finals in the cup singles will be played Monday, which will put the finals Tuesday and the challenge match "Wednesday. \

MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
Several New Haven Cisszen Believe They
 Saw Cashier Sherwood Here.

NusAhcA SSsEa eNVou kIeTes 4
 A peculiar case of mistaken identity occurred in this city yesterday in con- nection with this matter, and it excited considerable comment on the streets last evening. About s o'clock last evening a man named Murphy came into police head quarters and said he wanted to talk with the detectives. Sergeant Cook, who
 was in charge, directed him to Detec- tive Dennehy, who was in charge of the detective bureau. MT. Murphy told the detective that his home was in Hart ford. and that he was in this city on
 business yesterday. During the after- noon he saw MT. Sherwood come into the barroom of the Garde hotel, where he was seated and go up to the bar and
 take drink. He said that he knew Sherwood we'll and that he wanted him arrested. He said that the reason he knew him so well was because his wife had been a depositor in the Southport
 bank, and had considerable sum of money there when Sherwood disappear ed. Sergeant Detective Dennehy went out and investigated, but could find no one who answered the description of the missing cashier. A number of other men in this city who knew MT Sher- wood said last evening that they were pretty sure that they had seen him about the city during the day. Dennis J.

 he was pretty sure was the missing cashier. He said that he had known MT. Sherwood for about fifteen years, and he did not think he was mistaken. It is believed that may be the father was in town, and was mistaken for the son. 1

 worst of the Luck but the chalIopg ger
 Earned the Victory.
 Atlantic Highland, N. J., July A. Shamrock III more than squared ac- counts with her pacemaier Shamrock I to-day for the beating the challenger suffered yesterday. Sailing over a twenty-nine mile course the cup hunter beat the old boat minutes Il seconds, running ten miles to leeward, 5 minutes .10 seconds, beating ten miles to wind ward and minutes 19 seconds in a. reach of nine miles, 20 minutes and 40 seconds in all. The challenger's victory running to leeward was tiawless. Beat ing back Shamrock I suffered a little of her loss in q calnf streak and in reach- ing more heavily from the same course. Nevertheless the victory was fairly earned except that the difference be- tween the two boats was exaggerated by the disadvantages the old boat suf- fered. The course was set for forty mile race, ten miles south by east from Sandy Hook lightship and return twice around. but after sailing around once the boats took nine mile turn around Scotland lightship and back instead.
 On the surface the wind seemed less than five knots most of the time, but must have been better aloft for the boats sailed faster than when running free. It held steady north by west all day.
 The racers broke out spinnakers as they crossed line between the Erie and Sandy Hook lightship. They got away as follows:
 Shamrock III-11:15:44.
 Shamrock I. .11:16:12.
 It was a procession off the outer mark the challenger going all the while and leading around the mark by eight min utes 39 seconds. Beating home both boats made long tack in toward the Jersey coast. Shamrock I held on it fifteen minutes longer than the chal- lenger. Captain Wringe spied better breeze off-shore and the challenger soon got the benefit of 1t while Shamrock I lost some minutes in a streak of calm. Rounding Sandy Hook lightship IS minutes 49 seconds ahead of her pace maker the challenger went flying off to and around Scotland lishtslio fol- lowed by Shamrock I. s5..
 The new boat fairly walked away from the other running across. Coming back Shamrock I again suffered by a soft spot in the wind, while the chaa- lenger demonstrated the yachtsman's saying that it Is the fastest boat that gets there first and gets the best breeze. ~
 The finish was Shamrock III 3.1S:20, Shamrock I, 3:34:2S. Elapsed time, Shamrock III, 3:57:S6; Shamrock l., 4.1S:16.
 The Shamroczs will have short race tomorrow after which they will be taken out in dry dock at Erie basin and polished. s.4 .
