Special Dispatch 20 the Register.
WASHINGTON, June There is very little
prospect of the Commerce Committee do
ing anything this session on the subject Of
interstate traffic. The railroad interest is
opposed to it, and it is all powerful. Much
less prospect is there of action by the
House, even if bill on this subject should
reach the calendar. The fact is that
the committee has found it conyen-
lent to keep the bill sleeping until
so late a day that a place on
the calendar is the best its enemies could
devise for it. Such measure can pra-,ti-
cally never be passed under suspension OF
the rules. In fact, it is doubtful II the rules
could ever be suspendeda at this stage OF the
session to even set day for consideration.
Combined to the hostility to the legislation
is the fact that the House is getting in
hurry TO see its way through to the end oil
its work. Only the most outspoken public
demand will secure consideration f"S the
matter at all.

CiNGi5SATI. o., June 1.-Except one roll
ing. mill which works scrap iron excfu-
ly, and two mills which are working up
two or three days accumulation of blooms,
all the mills in Cincinnati an6vicinity are
closed. 1t is the belief of the-naill' owners
all will resume next Monday, and q COM
plets adjustment be made.
CISSNNATI. June 1.-The relations be-
tween the mill owners and workmen here,
differs from most places in this, that a year
ago a formal contract was entered into be-
tween committee representing the work
ingmsE belonging to the Amalgamated
Association of Iron and Steel Workers and
all the mill owners of this city and. vicinity,
by which it was agreed that in. considexa-
tioa of the mill owners paying price till
June lst 1882, which was ten
per cent. above Pittsburg prices, the
workingmen should hereafter. neGeiye the
same prices as were paid at Pittsburgh;
but in the event no scale was, agreed on at
Pittsburgh, June l, 1882, then the prices to
remain rs they were prior to June l, 1881,
until Pittsburgh prices were fixed.
Pittsburgh having fixed no scale, the
mill owners here slaim that the provision
of the contract for that contingency should
govern, and late last night many OF them
believed the men would be guided
work, but toFday's action shows
disposition to repndiate that
agreement, as all the men in the mills but
three have stopped work. The mill own
ers do not regard the strike rs formidable,
from the fset it has no sanction from the
headquarters of the anaalganiated union.
Mr.. Avery, thesvicel.president OF the
nnion, is at work, to-day, So, also, are
Mr.. Sopmers, secretary Of the committee
of workmsn that made the contract above

THE MINERS.
AZ Pittsburgh.

PITTsBURGH June 1.-The difficulties be.
tween Panhandle coal operators and their
miners are thrown in the shade by the far
greater troubles in the iron line, snd visit
to the miners general Office this morning
elected nothing new in the condition Of
aairs i Yas Ie9rHsa thnti mines at Mans
field came out this morning. This firm has
been paying four cents per bushel for min
ing, but they recently filled some cars for a
firm which refuses to pay the demands and
in obedience to the resolution adopted at
the last convention the men quit work.
1t is said upon good authority that no
more colored labor will be imported until
the iron troubles are settled, as there will
he but little need of them. When Pitts
burgh's manufactures are in full blast they
consume 10000 bushels of coal daily, and
as this amount is supplied mainly by the
railroads mines, a protracted strike in the
interests will suspend hostilities in the
coal line.

Asking an Advance.

AMEsBURY, Mass, June 1.-The striking
weayers who left their work in the Hamil-
ton Mills are still out. The cause
of the strike was the posting in the mills
of a notice from the Hamilton Company
that so cents would be deducted from the
weayers for each cut coming off without
the requisite number Of picks to the inch.
There is little or no excitement, and the
whole matter is now in course OF ADJUST
ment. The weavsrs claim that il would be
impossible for them to earn a living under
such an arbitrary rule, as their wages de-
pend upon the speed of their loom and the
quality of the material If the loom is slow
and the stock poor, the weayers will be un-
able to earn living under the new rule.
