Inc striking printers were addressed at
thelr nall, 9th and d streets northwest. last
night by James O'ConneIl president OF the
International Association of Machinists,
ms subject being The. Open versus the
Closed SHOP He said the employers work
d closed business while they want the Jour-
ney men union printers to work In an open
snop "n!cn, the speaker said, means low
wages, pad conditions and the working of
as long hours as the exigen cies of the shop
require. There is very little grace in the
position OF the employers when they have
themselves an atr-tfght organization They
term the printers unions trusts but YOU do
NOT near or trusts going out among the
highways and byways and urging men to
come 70 them as the printers are doing"
MT y Connell added that the unions do
shop' He claimed that the United Typoth-
etae OF America stands for a closed shop,
not only for the employees, but for the en-
ptoyer. He stated that when a piece of
work calling for an outlay of S25 900 had

etae and his bid received the work was
submitted to four other firms In the Typoth-

SMALL FIRE, BIG LOSS
$4,000 DAMAGE DONE IN SPACE
FOUR FEET SQUARE.

blaze which resulted In IS 200 damage
occurred about o'clock this morning on
the sixth floor of the main exchange build
ing of the Chesapeake Potomac Tele-
phone Company, on 18th street between q
ana III streets northwest. The burned-out
area was but four by three feet, yet In that
small space the great damage was caused.
The blaze occurred behind the great
horseshoe shaped switchboard of the ex-
change, which is 16S feet long from end to
end. The damage was caused to the
myriad of wires in this switchboard and in
terfered with the telephone service of 5000
subscribers, besides actually putting about
200 subscribers entirely out of service.
The blaze was discovered early this morn
ing by a small jet of fame and smoke COM
ing through one of the small connection
holes on the front of the board. Two wires
had become crossed where the insulation
had worn off, 1t is believed. andzthe spark
from the crossed wires ignited the combus-
tibIe insulating material with which the
wires are covered.
No Alarm Sounded
The man who discovered the destructive
blaze did not turn in an alarm of fire. and
even the policeman on that beat did not
know that 5000 blaze had taken place
in his bailiwick. The telephone company
has fire service OF its own and this was
quickly brought into service. By prompt
action the flames, which burst forth behind
the switch board were confined to space
OF less than four feet and finally extin-
guished
A force of expert electricians were at
work on the burned-out section
Mr.. F. H. Bethel, general manager, said
1.-The fire was probably due to some bat
terry wires becoming crossed. The damage
which amounted to about 5000, was due
principally to the acid in the fluid used tc
extinguish the fire. The service Of about
$50 subscribers was interrupted, but the
work of restoring the affected lines waa
begun at once and by noon the service was
working satisfactorily"

AmerlcuS Men Count On Ten Cents
Opening
While there was no material change
yesterday in the cotton market the evil
dence of lack of vertebral pointed to a
further slight decline. Contract cot
ton is now above 1o4 cent?, while the
January position is somewhat higher.
One Americus warehouseman ventured
the belief yesterday that the price for
spot cotton here in September would
rule around 81 cents to 10 cents
provided there Is no further injury to
the crop in general, in which event
prices would advance materially. There
is not going to be any bumper crop"
this year, and while cotton may sell at
the above named figures in September
and Ootober, while the crop is being
rushed to market as usual, there are
those who predict much higher prices
later in the season.

NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose From Grief.

What a fortunate provision of nature
It is, that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be it's
grief to discover, in the height of its
blooming glory, that a canker fed at it's
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women. but thanks to the in
vestigations of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction is now known to be
germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicIes. Newbros Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
ture intended. Sold by leading drug
