ARGUED BY COUNSEL
TYPoTHETAE's EFFORT TO EN-
JOIN TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION.

The entire session OF Equity Court No. 2.
Justice Stafford presiding, was taken up
today by the argument of counsel on the
application of certain members OF the
Typothetae of Washington for an injunction
against the Columbia Typographical Union
and Its eight-hour or strike committee
About twenty-five striking printers and
Mr. T. c. Parsons. chairman of the eight
hour committee. were present In court and
attentively listened to the presentation or
the arguments. Mr.. Byron s. Adams and
Mr.. Henry E. Wilkins were the only MEM
bers of the employing printers association
who attended the hearing.
When the court opened Attorney ]. II.
Ralston, on behalf of the defendants.
made a motion to suppress certain AM
davits which have been filed by the com
plainants within the last week. In ruling
on the motion Justice Stafford decided
that all afiidavtts relating to matters
which happened before January 81, 1ooo,
the date on which the bill was nled,
should be excluded. The court also or
dered expunged from the other affidavitS
all those portions which relate to the
happenings antecedeIft to the filing OF the
bill. In response to question from AT.
torney F. d. McKenney the court held
that the ruling applied alike to the reply
affidavits filed in behalf of the strikers.
Attorney Ralston then presented an ami
davit of A. A. Braddoek of ROCKVILLE, ND,
averring the receipt OF letter from lHe
Typothetae of Washington in answer to an
application for work The letter, attached
to the affidavit. bore the heading Typothetae
of Washington. and was signed in the same
manner Mr.. Ralston called the attention
of the court to a paragraph of the letter
which, he stated, showed that the typo
thetae. even at this late day, the date Of the
letter being recent. advised applicants that
no violence need be feared at the hands of
the striking printers.
The paragraph in question read: las far
as running any risk in taking a position
with US, there is absolutely none at all.
The union has annoyed our people to a GER
tain extent by way of persuasion and con-
stantly striving to make them desert the
Typothetae, but beyond that there has
been no trouble whatever.
Attorney McKenney raised the point that
the Typothetae, whose name was appended
to the letter was not party complainant.
but that the complainants sued as tndi-
vidual employers of printers. The court
thought that the letter was not binding
on the compliments The argument was
then commenced and continued the re-
mainder of the day.
Attorneys Frederick D. McKenney, ]. 8.
Flannery and Leon Tobriner represent the
complainants and Attorneys Ralston & Sid
dons appear for the defendants.

NoTARIEs PUBLIC.
Difficulty in Securing Their Services
for Public Business.

Since President Roosevelt issued the order
prohibiting government employees who were
notaries public from accepting fees for
oaths administered during Office hours.
there has been difficulty in securing the
services of notaries In the transaction of
official business
Some days ago the Secretary of Com
merce and Labor sent letter to the con-
troller Of the treasury, stating that the
department was DESTROYS of paying for a
commission and seal as notary public for
certain clerks in the steamboat inspection
service that they may administer free OF
charge, oaths for which the government
would otherwise have to pay.
Before the Presidents order there uas
little difficulty In securing the services Of
a notary, as many of the clerks held COM
missions, but almost all failed to renew
their license at the expiration of its au-
thority.
There are few branches of the service
where the offices of notary are more FREE
quently required than In the steamboat in
spection service. The law requires that
the inspection reports of all inspectors shall
be verified before notary public. In his
letter to the controllery Secretary MetcaH
stated that in New York alone over /, 500
certificates are made out by the inspectors,
which If verified before a notary pubic
would cost the government 1875 Mr. Met.
President in March. 1905. oaths were FREE
quently administered by the clerks of TIE
local board OF inspectors.
Since the issuance of the order said
Mr.. Metcalf, these clerks who were COM
missioned as notaries public have allowed
their commissions to lapse. and great in
convenience has been experienced by the
local inspectors IN getting certificates of
inspection sworn to-
The secretary requested decision from
the controller on the question of whether
or not the general appropriation for sal
aries and expenses was available fer the
purpose of paying the expenses of securing
commissions and seals for certain clerks
In the local offices.
Mr.. Tracewell decided that the general
appropriation in question was not ap-
plicabie for the purposes desired. He sug-
gests however that 1t would not be difficult
to obtain legislative authority to have cer-
tain clerks and others invested with the
power TO administer oaths in the transact
ton of their business.

Mr.. PERTAINS DENIAL
STRIKE OF TELEGRAPHERS NOT
CONTEMPLATED.

There will be no strike OF the telegra-
pliers In the employ of the Southern railroad
next Friday said II. B. Perham of ST.
Louis, president of the Order Of Railroad
Telegraphers, in an interview with a Star
reporter at the National Hotel this morn
ing THE publication of statement from
me to that effect is erroneous. / never gave
such an interview, and 1t has done both
the telegraphers and the railroad a great
deal of HARM
When asked whether or not there IS like
ly to be strike of the Southern's teieg-
raphers as a result of demands for re-
adjustment of wages any time after next
Friday, Mr.. Perham said:
The matter has not reached that phase
There has been no talk of strike Whatever
and our conferences with the railroad off-
Gals here In Washington have been OF a
most friendly nature. 1 have no reason to
believe there will be a strike, as Doth sioes
are rapidly reaching an amicabie under
standing. Wages in a number or instances
are being readjusted all over the country.
There is nothing more important In this
case than in about thirty others pending
in the United States and Canada, and see
no reason why there should be any SUI
about it.
lie was pressed further for a definite re.
ply to the query, DO you think there Will
be a striker"
II cannot say one way or the other, sim
ply because 1t Is not to our interest to dis
cuss the matter publicly, but ! will repeat
that things are moving along smoothly"

Mr.. Perham, who spends most o. his
time travelling through this country and
Canada in the interests of railroad teleg-
raphers, reached this city Monday morning

Southern officials in which Mr.. Perham
and the members of the committee have
taken part.

road company views the situation

HIS LIFE CRUSHED OUT.
TRAGIC DEATH OF PAUL NEU-
HAUs ON RAILWAY TRACKS.

Several persons who were on their way
home from the Knights of Pythias fair at
Gaithersburg, Md, last night found the
body Of man near the tracks of the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad not far from
Browns station. County officers were sum
moned and the body was identified as being
that OF Mr.. Paul Neuhaus, who was en-
ployed as librarian at Masonic Temple in
this city. A message was received at police
headquarters last night announcing the
fatal accident, and friends of the deceased
went to Gaithersburg this morning. where
the remains were being cared for in Car
isles undertaking establishment. Death
had occurred before the body was found
and the circumstances attending the acct
dent are not known Railroad officials be-
lieve that he was struck by the train that
was scheduled to reach here last night at
$40 o'clock.
Mr. Neuhaus attended the funeral Of the
late Joseph D. Milans yesterday afternoon,
going to Congressional cemetery. His
friends noticed that he failed to return in
the carriage with them. but thought he had
merely remained at the cemetery for some
private reason When he failed to return
home last night his wife became alarmed
fearing something had happened to him.
He was In ST. Elizabeths Hospital for the
Insane several years ago for treatment, and
was suffering recurrence of his mental
trouble. Mrs. Neuhaus was greatly shocked
1t up to the time of his death.
The deceased, who was about fifty-three
years old, was native of Baltimore but
had spent most of his younger days in
Cincinnati. Shortly after he came to this
city he accepted a position in the Con-
gressonal Library. and was employed there
until his mind failed him. After being
under treatment in the asylum for three
years he was discharged as cured. About
four years ago he was given the position
OF librarian at Masonic Temple and held
the position up to the time of his death
Indications of Mental Trouble.
During the past month or six weeks Mr..
Neuhaus showed Indications of return of
his mental trouble, and although he had
become wholly irresponsible and was I'M
able to perform his duties he was retained
in his position and his work was performed
by others. An effort was soon to have
been made to have him returned to the hos
pjtal. but the fatal accident put an end to
this move.
After leaving Congressional cemetery
yesterday afternoon 1t 1s thought Mr.. Neu-
haus started toward Baltimore and became
OF the car tracks to the point where he
was killed and that he was probably seated
on the end Of one of the ties, when the
train struck him. The side of his head was
crushed, one arm broken and other injuries
inflicted. His wife and two children sur
Vive him.
Mr.. Neuhaus was a member of Mithras
Lodge of Perfection, Scottish Rite Masons;
was past master of Hope Lodge. No. 20,
and q member of Columbia Commandery,
No. g. K. T., and Almas Temple, Mystic
Shrine Members of the several organiZa-
lions will attend to the funeral arrange
ments.
