“Society Has Robbed
the Cradle”
said a writer in one of the
leading magazines.
It maybe so,but " society,”
meaning a judicious mingling
with the world, is necessary
and beneficial.
Society has its cares and
sometimes, by means of it, with
out realizing it, a woman’s
health is undermined.
Just at the threshold of life
she finds herself suffering from
the diseases peculiar to woman,
and life becomes a burden.
Exposure at the wrong time,
overheated rooms and the gen
eral wear and tear of society
breaks down the health.

Wallace, who Is here, .with Mrs. Wal

of importance has any intention of re
signing his post he has not made It
known to his most Intimate friends.
He has been altogether a yenr or

There are now 7,600 men at work in
the engineering and construction de
partment of the canal. Among these
are 1,200 Americans. Several weeks
ago a part of a shipload of Russians
who were going to try their fortunes
in California were attracted by what
seemed to them fabulous wages for
laborers, and 100 of them stopped on
the isthmus and went to work on the
canal. Mr. Wallace has the impres
sion that almost any workman who
takes good care of himself will be un
likely to get yellow fever, which he
says is not epidemic in the canal
zone. The eight-hour law is rigorous

have plenty of time for rest.

THE G. P. 0. AND G. 0. P. IN A
WAR OVER TYPESETTING MACHINES
WASHINGTON, D. C. June 27.
(Special.)—The two rival manufactur
ers of type-setting machines are In a
merry war over the contract for
seventy-two Lanstons awarded at the
Government Printing office. The
president of the Mergenthaler com
pany, Mr. Philip T. Dodge, was in
Washington yesterday. He came from
New York to look over the ground.
Mr. Dodge has numerous local sup
porters, for the Mergenthaler stock
holders In Washington arc many
They have taken up the contest with
no little interest. On the other hand,
the Lanston owners, also numerous
in Washington, are following every
new move with jubilation. Among
them is the president of the company,
Mr. J. Maury Dove. They all feel
defiant, as well as jubilant, for the
contract is already executed.
Of course, it is a clash between cor
porate interests, each intent on pro
tecting Itself to the utmost. Neither
is willing to lose any advantage for
its own typesetting machine, the use
of which In the Government Printing
office, to the prejudice of the other,
furnishes a great advertisement for
further sales to private firms and in
dividuals.
The Mergenthaler officials are ap
parently planning to wage their fight
against the big contract for Lanston
machines to the last ditch. It Is
argued on their side that the eon
tract was awarded Irregularly. Pub
lic Printer Palmer’s statement in yes
terday’s Post that if any one in the
government printery chose to Invest
have the sea level or the C lock canal,
the work already accomplished, and
that which is now going on. will be
necessary.
Mr. Wallace will spend a part of
his vacation preparing plans with his
colleagues on the engineering com
mittee for submission to the board of
advisory engineers, consisting of 12
distinguished engineers. This board
will recommend to the Isthmian com
mission the type of esnat they consid
er best for shipping Interests. The
commission will In turn submit the
matter to congress.
Mr. . allace himself Is In favor of
a sea level canal. He believes that in
making a garment It is best to have
the cloth all wool and a yard wide.
He thinks that the canal should not
be built for a few years, but for all
time, and that it should be navigable
to ships of the deepest draft and
should be able to let them go through
in the shortest space of time possible.
The cost of construction, it was true,
would aproach $230,000,000 and the
time probably would be 12 years, or
four years longer than that required
for the building of the six-lock canal.
Mr. Wallace thought that the remov
al of the element of red tape would
help along the work a good deal.
Glen W. Dolloff, a cabin passenger
by the Orizaba, had an abnormally
high temperature and was removed to
Hoffman Island for ooservation. He
was employed in the Peruvian petro
leum field, and had been only five
hours on the isthmus before em
barking.
| his money, taking his chances of gain
or loss, it was not his affair, is met
by the quotation of section 34 of the
codified! ®L.aws Govering the Public
Printing and Binding,” printed in
1895, and a part of the Revised
Statutes, which reads:
Law Forbids Any Hdldings.
Neither the Public Printer, chief
clerk, foreman of printing, foreman of
binding, nor any of their assistants
shall, during their continuance in of
fice, have any Interest, direct or In
direct, in the publication of any news
paper or periodical, or In any print
ing, binding, engraving, or lithograph
ing of any kind, or In any contract for
furnishing paper or other material
connected with the public printing,
binding, lithographing, or engraving;
and for every violation of this section
the party offending shall, on convict
ion before any court of competent
jurisdiction, be imprisoned In the
penitentiary for a term of not less
than one nor more than five years,
and shall be fined not exceeding SSOO.
Much is also made of the alleged
failure of the Public Printer to secure
from his foreman of printing a re
quisition for the additional machines.
It Is claimed that the Public Printer's
assistants urged him to contract for
these machines, and that the foreman
of printing made no requests for more
typesetting machines of any kind and
did not want them. Section 32 of
the same code is quoted to this ef
fect:
The Public Printer Khali charge
himself with and he accountable foi

use. The foreman of printing and
binding shall make out estimates of
the quantity and kind of material re
quired for their respective depart

therefor, when it is neeued. The
Public Printer shall -furnish the same

President Dove's Statement.
Mr. J. Maury Dovo stated last even
ing, that the Lanston company had
secured the contract after a fair test,
and was leaving the Mergqjithaler
company to do the squirming. "The
facts are.” said he. "that we have
wai.oped them at every turn and have
won in the Government Printing of
fice on merit. Let them do all the
talking they want to about the rec
ords of tne Lanston. The Govern
ment office has kept the record ot
work done by the two different ma
chines. Those speak for themselves.
I secured that contract for seventy
two more machines after the splendid
showing we had made, and I cannot
see what the other people are going
to do about It.”’
Mr. Dodge, who Is at thp New Wil
lard, said last evening that he had
come here seeking to ascertain how
and why It is that the largest order
ever given for typesetting machines
should be placed without notice to
rival companies, after assurances
given very recently by the Public
Printer that the purchase of addi
tional machines was not even under
consideration. Mr. Dodge added that
there is not a single large plant In
the world where the machines order
ed are in operation, except on one
daily newspaper conducted by an of
ficer of the Lanston company.
The president of the Mergenthaler
called attention to the fact that there
are in this country many thousand of
the machines of his company In opera
tion, in addition to several thousand
built by foreign companies. He em
phatically denied the statement made
by the Public Printer In the columns
oi Friday’s Post that the linotype ma
chines are not adapted for book and
tabular work. He asserted, on the
contrary, that they are extensively
used in book work by the leading
houses of the country, such as Do
Vinne, Harper's. Appleton’s, and .the
Lippincott's, by nearly all the periodi
cal press of the country, and by the
state printers of all the states of the
Union where machine composition is
employed, also in governmental work
in England, Canada, Australia, Mexi
co, and Japan, the only foreign na
tions using machine composition In
connection with their printing, as well
as in the government printing office
in the Philippine Islands, where they
were Installed under the direction ot
Gov. Gen. Taft. Mr. Dodge said that
hundreds of the machines of the Mer
genthaler company are employed In
the production of Book work, includ
ing editions de luxe.
Much Used in Tabular Work.
As to tabular 'work,* ho asserted
that Mergenthaler machines are ex
tensively used for this purpose in
many offices, and that, the work per
formed by them is entirely satis
factory.
Mr. Dodge ridiculed the figures
given by Mr. Palmer as representing
the output of the I.anston machine.
He said that they represented only
the labor of the keyboard operator,
largely on "phat” and special matter
counted double, when, In fact the out
put required the* lal»or of three ad
ditional persons; one at the casting
machine and two to correct and make
up the matter therefrom. Mr. Dodge
expressed great surprise that such a
large order should be given without
an opportunity for competition, N nnd
for a machine used only to a limited
extent on book work and already con
demned and abandoned In numerous
office. He thought that Mr. Palmer’s
list of correspondents had been Judi
ciously selected for him.

NEW YORK. June 27—Patrick Fer
ris. of Belfast, was not delayed at
Ellis Island by the customary red tape
and official procedure Sunday, and
his children's fortunes were saved.
He was a passenger on the Teutonic,

and as Ferris was due at the sur
rogate's office, ail the officials of the
Immigration service combined to
hasten the man on his Journey.
Mr. Ferris received woril in Ireland
that his sister had died in this city,
leaving $ in,ooo to bo divided among
his live children. Learning that the
will was to be contested, und that his
children's share would be lost unless
he appeared in New York at a certain
time, he immediately hooked passage
on the first Iship he could catch.
Mr. Ferris traveled In the steer
nge, and, according to the regular
custom, he should have gone to Ellis
Island, but when the officials learned
of Ids case they did everything in
their power to facilitate his move
ments. It was a tight squeeze, but
Ferris won. with a few miutes to
