Public Printer Denies Report
That Released Bookbind-

Attributes Lack of Work to
the Cutting Off of Million
Volumes From Congress.

Replying to the report that he was
about 70 reinstate a number of book
binders whose services were dispensed
with April 80 and May p, because OF
lack OF work, the Public Printer said to-
DAY that there was absolutely no fOun-
dalton for any such statement
The fact is, the Public Printer said,
the action Of Congress cutting Off some
thing like a million volumes of Con-
gressional printing effectually reduced
the work to such a point that the annual
reports from the departments do not
more than iii the gap sufficient TO keep
the present force in the bindery.
The Public Printer said that he had
been informed that the bOokbinders
whose services had been dispensed with
because Of the cUrtailed amount OF work
In the bindery, had been deceived ana
misled by statements made to the effect
that before the close of the fiscal year
ended June 80. the Public Printer would
be forced TO reinstate bOokblnders 10
get out on time the incoming reports
from the departments.
II is said that in a number of in
stances bo0lIbinders who had been let
out have remained in Washington hop
ing to be reinstated.
If more bookbinders should be needed,
the Public Printer said. their services
would not be required before next jan
uary, and IL would require legislation 70
create the work for them 20 do.

Renegade Who Betrayed
Russian Rebels Thus
Punished.

RIGA, Russia, July 9.-Horribie pun
ishment has Just been inflicted by revo-
lutionists upon former member, whose
treachery led to the discovery OF a Sc
cret conference, causing the death OF
many of the revoluionaries ana the ar
rest of others of the band.
The central revolutionary bunds OF
CourIand. Ldviand. and Estland used an
old mill Just outside Riga for their meet
ing place. A man named Sproge, VINO
had broken with the reYolutionaries, be-
trayed them 10 the police. Ohlcers went
TO the old mill with soldiers. and called
on the reVolCtionaries 10 surrender IN
trying to escape, thirty of the conspir-
ators were shot and killed. Many others
were captured.
SprOge's treachery was discovered and
other reVolutionists decided 10 kill hin
by frightful tortures- He was captured
and taken 10 the same mill where the
revolutiOnaries had met. There he was
tied TO the floor and a loose sack with q
small hole fastened about his head.
A stream OF -four was allowed 10 run
through the hole dropping on his head
Ultimately the sack was completely
filed and Sproge was slowly smothered
His body was only discovered today
the reVolutionaries having left him there
with a note warning other traitors thai
similar or worse fate would befan in
formers.

great an attraction as Montana is
not often presented in a popularity

The rate today shows large gains
for Miss Grace Flaherty. who is now
very close to Sallie Pritchard for
first place. Miss Flora Haymaker
passed Miss Pearl Deem and is now
in third place.

the Telegram accomplished the feat
of giving its readers all the import
