GheGtttelIiaereer,
Tho Plllsburgh Lock.Onl.

The latest advices from Pittsburgh in
dictate that the recent attempts at COM
promise between the mill owners and
puddlers have failed, and that hence
forth nothing is to be hoped for during
un indefinite period. The final PROPOSE
tion was to submit their differences to
the arbitration Of disintorosted parties,
or to board Of arbitrators which should
be comprised Of equal numbers Of mill
owners, pudllers and outsiders. To this
proposition the manufacturers agreed on
Friday last, but the puddlcrs, after con-
Sulting together on the subject, declined
it, Their ultimutum is s. 80 per ton for
pudding on a q cent card for iron, and
to this the manufacturers say they cannot
and will not agree, So tho differences
between tho two arc last a. far from
settlement and apparently Just as IT.
reeoncilable as ever, According to the
Pittsburgh Gaseitc the pudllers say that
thew have almost starved themselves
through long and drcary winter, and
now that the warm spring months are
approaching, when business is expected
to revive, they do not intend to rceedo
from the position they have NO tenacIonSIy
held.
Another phase OF the labor situation
up at Pittsburgh is the proposed action
Of the heaters and rollers, which IL not
to Use any foreign muck iron UP TO-
this time the mills have not experienced
any serious difficulty in supplying them
selves with muck iron from abroad, and
therefore they have been able t" take anu
fll all the orders that they thought de-
Sirablc. Should the rollers and heaters

The "lOCk.Out" at Pittsburgh has thus
far had no effect on Wheeling. The mills
here have gone Oh rs usual paying the
old price for pudding, which Is 80 %
per ton, or 81 u more than the price Of
ferel ut Pittsburgh Wheeling always
pays % cents more than Pittsburgh. 1t
Is not supposed that u reduction here
would materially effect the nail market
for good, and therefore manufacturers
have not thus far cared to follow in the
wake Of Pittsburgh, the probability being
that whatever was secured in pudding
would soon be lost in the competition to
sell nails.
As things look Mt Pittsburgh now the
lockout which has run nearly four
months. may last all sprinv. Tho tone Of
the puldlcrs indicates that they believe
that the worst Of the pressure upon them
has passed away with the winter, and that
henceiorth the contest will be stronger on
their side, If this is their feeling, as ii
seems TO be. II ia not improbablc that We
