PRINTERS STRIKE IS ON.
Union Typos l%naugurate Big Struggle
for Eight Hour Day.


New York, Jan. 2.-For the first
time since the organization of the In.
ternational Typographical union, a
general strike went into effect today
in every shop in the United States
and Canada where the employer re-
fused to grant an eight-hour day. Sew
eral times before the union printers
in various parts of the country have
ordered strikes to enforce a better
ment of their. conditions, but these
strikes have always been sectional,
and in many cases have been won by
the employers. Now, with a treasury
fund of more than $3.50, 900, obtained
by assessment on every union printer,
a determined effort is to be made to
establish the eight-hour day univer-
sally. Out Of the 5000 members or
Typographical union No. 6 in New York
it IA stated that fewer than 800 were
obliged to strike. The Typothetae
members have established a tempo
rary home for an army OF about 500
nonuniOn printers in an old school
house in West Tenth street, where
lodging and meals will be provided.
Union officials said that many New
York firms had agreed to tSe eight.
hour day.

Lincoln, Dec. 29.-Deputy Insurance
Auditor Pierce, in sending out his an
nual notification to insurance compa-
MES calling for their annual state.
ments, is advising the companies to
remit with the reports the 2 per cent
of gross receipts taxed against them
under the present revenue law. The
companies required under the law to
pay 2 per cent of their gross receipts
are life, casualty and surety compa-
MES. The insurance department is
keeping close tab" on the ~investiga.

Ing made in New York. Special Ex-
aminer Virgins of the Nebraska de-
partment, who Is assisting in the in
vestigation, Is expected TO return to

ance is needed in reviewing the many

No Wedding at Busch Home.

St. Louis, Jan. 2.-The announce
ment following the frustrated elope-
ment of Miss Wilhelmina Busch,
daughter of Adolphus Busch, and Lieu
tenant Edward Scharrer of Stuttgart,
Germany, that they would be quietly
married at the Busch mansion, was
not carried out. Instead, Miss Busch
has gone to the Grant farm to spend
some time and her father has asserted
that there is no engagement between
his daughter and the lieutenant. An
air of mystery seems to pervade the
affair. Lieutenant Scharrer, seen at
his hotel apartments, declined to dis
cuss the matter.

MORE LILLE CASE LETTERS.
Nebraska Pete" Said to Have Con.
fessed to Committing Crime.

Lincoln, Jan. There is a good
deal of speculation among Lincoln
citizens who have been interested in
the case Of Mrs. Lena Margaret Lii
lie as to the origin OF two letters
which have purported to come from
persons who know that she is not
guilty of the crime. One was re.
ceived by a Lincoln paper alleging
that the writer had committed the
crime and had come forward to tell
the truth about the murder, while
Governor Mickey disclosed another
letter received nearly two months ago
by Mrs. A. ID. Beemer, in which 1t is
alleged that Nebraska Pete q
roomer in one of the cheap Mills no
tells in New York, had confessed, while
drunk, that he had committed the
murder and tried to kill Mrs. Lille.
The letters are in totally different
handwriting, although about equal in
illiteracy.
