THE PROPOSED SCALE.
The Matter Postponed for Three Week
Pittsburgh Cou. lnerulal of yesterday.

The Matter Postponed for Three Weeks
Pittsburgh Commercial 81 yesterday.
The Amalgamated Association has STAYED
oil settlement OF the question of wages
Tor three weeks more. At the district meet.
ing on Saturday the propriety OF pressing
the demand for an increase OF wages, as
adopted at Il previous meeting, was dis.
cussed at great length. a decided majority
OF the speakers favored firm stand for 81
per ton Tor pudding md the original scales
all the way through, but some delegates
argued that this course would in all pruba-
billty precipitate bitter struggle, and that
the matter should be thoroughly consid-
cred before final action was taken, which
might throw 10000 men out OF work. This
view was pressed strongly, and-,he final
decision OF the meeting was to submit the
whole matter to the subordinate lodges
They will instruct their delegates, and on
the 10Th OF May another district meeting
will be held. The ultimatum OF the Anal
gamated Association will then be issued
Delegates who attended the meeting are
very explicit i'll their assertions that the
action taken was not indicative OF i back
down; it merely shifts the responsibility
upon the shoulders OF the individual mem
beers Of the association. What their decis.
ion will be no person would predict last
night. President jarrett stated that he
had not the slightest idea OF what action
would be taken by the subordinate lodges
\ number OF workmen we're spoken to and
all favored the pushing OF the original
scale.
The manufacturers regard the action OF
the district meeting rs indicative OF dis.
position TO modify the original scale. One
OF the conierees stated that he believed il
the wages OF other classes OF worklnen
were allowed to remain at last years fig
ures, the manufacturers will agree to pay
S. per ton for pudding, and will also pay
the same price for busheling scrap on d
sand as on cindes bottom. They will no,
tolch the other scales, however. That pro-
viding for uniform wages Tor engineers and
fixing the rate at s. % per day is especially
Objectionable. Other manufacturers do
not agree to this, or II they do, will not saw
so. They insist that it will be impossible
to pay more than present rates, and will be
compelled to shut down their mills alter
the first OF June unless the demand is
withdrawn.
The action OF The AmulgamateJ Associa-
ton in postponing the matter for three
weeks in this district may cause trouble in
other sections. Scales will not be submitted
in other districts until the ultimatum OF
both sides are given in this. II it is de.
cided to fight ioran advance in PittsburgL,
material advances will be demanded in
other sections, and ii a strike takes place
here it is safe to say that the manufacturers
OF other districts will also resist the de.
uand, or at least hold off until the matter
is settled in Pittsburgh.
