PRINTERS IN STRUGGLE.
An Interesting Contest Begun at Chi
capo TODAY

CHICAGO, August 26.-Chicago today be-
came the center of the struggle of employ
ing printers throughout the country against
the International Typographical Union to
defeat the latter's attempt to secure the
eight-hour day. Open shop notices were
lishments, members OF the typothetae.
The spirit of the independent declaration
will be carried out by the employment of
non-union printers at once. Other men,
bers of the typothetae have planned to
follow suit Union officials say that the
first uon-union man to appear in any of the
typothetae establishments Will be the signal
for a general wafkout in every plant con-
trolled by the master printers organization.
More than 2O.0Oo job printers throughout
the country may be involved eventually in
the struggle which started here today over
th, question of the open shop and also the
eight-hour day in job printing offices The
nine hour day prevails at present, and the
employers contend that they have the rlght
to employ men according to their worth
A strike of job pressmen may follow, put
this has not been determined definitely.
None of the daily newspapers Is involved
In the impending conflict. 1t concerns tne
lob printing establishments solely. In
Chicago about $500 members of the union
are employed in the job shops, ABOUT ~
of which are known as strictly union, using
the union label. AS many more shops en-
ploy union labor exclusively without using
the labels.

WITH MIDDIES ABOARD
MONITORS ARRIVE AT NAVY
YARD THIS MORNING.
Prospective Naval Officers to Be Given
an Insight Into Gun
Manufacture

The monitors Arkansas, Florida and Ne
vada steamed up the Potomac this morn
ing, reaching the Washington navy yard
about $50 O'Clock, having on board the
mfdshipmen of the first class from the
Naval Academy at Annapolis. The grim
war vessels were moored to the wharves
at the navy yard and soon became objects
or great interest to quite a number of peo-
pie who had assembled there to see them
come in and to greet the "middies.''
The midshipmen have for the past two
months or more been on a cruise of in
struction along the Atlantic seaboard, and
have visited all the principal naval sta
tions from Norfolk, Va, to Castine, Me-
They were met upon their arrival by the
officers on duty at the Washington navy
yard, who extended the courteSieS of the
establishment to them. Some of the fu-
ture naval chiefs were given shore leave
and visited friends in the city, with per-
mission to be absent until Monday morn
ing.
1t is said that Monday the naval cadets
Will witness the operation of making big
guns and gun mounts at the navy yard
The system will be explained to them by
Capt Pendleton and his assistants in
cluding the foremen in the several gun
making shops.
A point Of much interest to the mid
dies today was the old naval museum in
the Washington yard, the exhibits in
which include cannon and other firearms
from away back in 1900 to the present
time. Among the relics are many of the
civil war and the war with Spain
1t is said to be probable that visitors
Will be permitted to go aboard the three
monitors tomorrow and Monday to in
spect these new types of Uncle Sans
coast defense warships. The monitors are
scheduled to sail from the Washington
navy yard Tuesday morning.

NOW A PLEASURE BOAT.
New Classification of the Galilee by
the Department of Commerce.

The Department of Commerce and Labor
has consented to the classification OF the
Galilee, a merchant vessel, chartered by
the Carnegie Institution for scientific pur-
poses, as a pleasure yacht, and the GUS
toms collector at Honolulu, where the CAL
lice will arrive in a few days, will be in
structed accordingly. This action Is taken
at the request of the department OF ter
restrial magnetism of the Carnegie Instt-
tuition. and will render unnecessary the en-
try and clearance of the Galilee at every
foreign and domestic port at which she
stops. AS a merchantman, she would have
to enter and clear at each port, but as she
Is being used for scientific purposes ex-
clusively, she has no cargo to be entered
or cleared.
1t Is quite new departure to classify
ship SO chartered and so used as pleas
ure craft" as the scientists claim they
have three years of hard work ahead. which
will result in a corrected magnetic chart
OF the north Pacific ocean and will do away
with many inaccurate influences which
now menace the mariners compasses. They
do not care to be classed as ION pleasure
bent" because the United States govern
ment is appropriating $4,000 for the pur-
pose, but as the customs laws provide only
for merchantmen and pleasure yachts, it
became necessary to classify the Nalilee as
one or the other, and the scientists chose
the latter.

ASSISTANT SECRETARY LOOMS
May Take a Vacation and Then Go on
Special Mission.

Assistant Secretary Loomis expects to
leave Washington early next week on a va
cation, which he will spend probably on
some of the Canadian fishing streams. He
has been heavily taxed during the past
spring and summer and even his European
trip in connection with the transfer Of the
body OF the late Paul Jones was accom-
panied by so much formality and official
ceremony in which Mr.. Loomis as the spe-
cial representative Of the President was
obliged to take a prominent part, that he
derived no benefit to his health from the
time spent.
1t is possible that upon his return to
Washington Mr.. Loomis will relinquish his
post as assistant secretary of state to un-
dertake a special mission to Brazil in con-
nection with the preparation of certain
trade treaties in which the President is very
much interested. 1t Is not the intention.
however. that Mr. I.oomis should remain IN
Brazil as a resident ambassador. as the eli
mate Is by no meaEs adapted to his health,
although there has SO far been no change
announced in the original plans to make a
place for him in the diplomatic service.
