Before the mid dle of this week every union printer in thirty-seven shop controlled by the Chicago Typothetae will be on a strike, and before another week the fight may be extended to twelve of the principal cities of the middle west the employers of which are organ ized, with the Chicago Typothtae, in to the middle west, association. This forms part of the national body of master printers. That the printers will put up a long and bitter fight, against the Typothetae was foreshadowed today when Typo- raphlcal Union, Ixical No. 1. met at Brind's Hall and raised the strike as sessment, from 2 to 10 per cent. The union also decided to force the fight lug by presenting at once demands for an eight hour agreement ard an agreement for closed shops. The raising of the strike assess ment means the addition of $s,umu weekly to the defense funds, and the printers say they can keep 9io men on the street without touching the $1,. 000.000 fund which "the union says it is ready to spend if necessary.

Yesterday was a quiet but a busy day in the quarantine service at Ca' lw. City and Stati health authorities worked from early yesterday morning until late last night. The world quarantine is being rigid ly enforced and both Dr. Palmer, act ing secretary of the sta'e- board, and Alderman Fuller, chairman of the city board, stated last night that they firm ly believed that the service m ef fective in every manner and that the few loop holes in the service, that had ex sted before the work had beea thor oughly systematized, had been closed As far as could be learned there has been no fault found by any one as to the efficiency of the quarantine but to the contrary there have b.'en nu merous complaints because of the stringent manner in which it is be ing enforced. "Cairo people who clamored for a strict world quarantine are now dis posed to object to the manner in which it is being carried out," said Dr. Palmer last night. "Of course these cases are few but some people seem to think that the quarantine is a good thing when not applied to themselves or their friends." Yesterday a large number of Pa ducah people came here on their way home from Chicago and other points. They were all without permits and were locked in the coach until the Paducah train left. It is said to the discredit of the Paducah people that iTiey heaped abuse and vile Insults up on the heads of the health inspectors while in the discharge of their duty. Up to 7 o'clock last night over 2, loo permits had been issued. Applications for them pour iuto the city hall by telephones, telegraph, and letters. Chairman Fuller is very strict as to the issuance of the permits and the applicant must satisfy the local auth orities that they have not beea in the Infected districts.
