The Kick Continues.
SOUTH CHICAGO, June 2.-Therc is nc
material change in the situation at Iron
dale this morning, all the men are still
out. President Jarrett has not arrived
and telegram is received stating he will
not come as expected. Corresponding
Secretary Pat Cormody. of the Iron
makers association, has just received the
following dispatch from President JAR
rett at Pittsburgh: "My instructions
being only advisory, you are at liberty to
stop, provided they all stop" MIR. Cor
mody has also received the following
telegram from Vice President j. G. Bull
lock, of Bay View mill, Milwaukee:
"Do not work unless they sign the
scales. We are out and will stop out
until they all sign. 1 will call them
out.'
The indications now are that the men
will stay out until the manufacturers give
in. The men claim they have half q mil
lion dollars in the treasury at Pittsburgh;
also, that the steel and rail men will come
to their aid with money when they need
it. The employees of the steel rail mill and
iron rail mills, in all making about II 900
men, are out of employment here.
CHICAGO, June 2.-There is little change
in the situation in the strike this evening.
The police have made several more arrests
of persons supposed to have been con-
cerned in the riot at Brighton last night,
but the evidence is not conclusive.
The grocerymen of Irondale have posted
Offices that the strikers will be expected
to settle present accounts before receiving
any further credit. An indignation meet
ing of the strikers was held this after
noon at which it was resolved to "boy-
cott' the grocerymen whom they con-
sidered leaders in the no-credit move
ment.
President Potter of the North Chicago
rolling mills, says he anticipates no
trouble at his mills at South Chicago and
at Bay View, near Milwaukee, and be-
lieves the strike here will collapse in a
few days. He dosen't agree with the
statement that there is an overstock on
hand, but says there will be plenty of
work to do.
PRESENT WAGES.
CHICAGO, June 1.-THE wages which
the iron workers are striking against are
as follows: Nail feeders, $1.75 per day;
helpers, 81; puddlers, 81 to SIS; nailers,
Sc; rollers, So to $40. They demand an
advance of from 10 to Is per cent.
THE BRICK MAKERS.
CHICAGO, June 2.-The Knights of La
Dor have taken friendly interes st in
the brick makers strike, and propose
a conference for compromise and con-
Citation, they representing the interests
of the strikers. The employers have
given no answer, and are not much in
clined to treat with the men, who have
been troublesome and evasive.
THURSDAYS RAID ON RATS.
The attack Of the dock laborers at
Bridgeport last night upon the Chicago
& Alton train was well executed and
evinced careful planning. Though
roughly armed with sticks, clubs, pieces
of iron and stones, the number of broken
and bruised heads attests their effective
ness Three had their skulls laid bare by
vicious blows and half a dozen others
were crippled or hurt in various degree.
None of the injured are likely to die, even
Judge Pillsbury being in a fair way to
recover at last accounts. The rioters
quickly fed when their vengeance was
satisfied. The police were early on the
scene and have made several arrests, in
Guiding James O'Brien, John O'Neill and
John Frawley, all on suspicion.
A dispatch from Dwight says one Of
the rioters was accidentally shot in the
80 n
being looked for. David McWilllams, of
Dwight, who was with Judge Pillsbury,
says the shot which struck him was fired
from inside the car, but none of his par
ty saw the man who fired it. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that important clews are
in the hands of the police and the mis-
creants will be brought to justice.
plLLsBURY's WOUND.
CHICAGO, June IA dispatch from
David McWilliams, of Douglas, who was
with Judge Pillsbury until o'clock this
morning, at Pontiac, where he was taken
after receiving his wound last night, says:
" Judge Pillsbury did not suffer any great
pain during his journey home, and on my
leaving him, at a. M, at his home he
was quite comfortable. A dispatch just
received "A p. N.Y. from Pontiac informs
me that the judge is resting quietly.
Another probing failed to find the bullet,
but we are quite hopeful for his life.''
WAITING FOR THE SCALE TO BE SIGNED.
PITTSBURGH, June 2.---There was moth
ing new in the iron situation to-day. 1t
is not likely any firms contemplating
affixing their signatures to the scale will
do so before next week, inasmuch as this
week is near its close, and the amalga-
mated workmen will have their annual
of the lockout is beginning to be felt in
the companion industries, coal and coke.
One coal firm reports falling off in their
supplies to the mills of $4,000 bushels per
day. Many mills operate their own
mines, and these, of course, are now de-
serted. The consumption Of coke has
fallen off fully one-fourth, and prices
have been reduced ten to fifteen cents per
ton from those established q month ago.
Business men and tradesmen are not ap-
prehensive of long strike, and express
confidence that the curtailed production
will stIffen the market, and the scale
will then be signed.
MILWAUKEE, June 2.--No new devel.
opments at the Bay View rolling mills.
The 1ail mill will shut down to- morrow.
The men, 160 in number, are quiet, and
claim they will be able to hold out till
the company sign the scale.

Becker's tannery are out on strike. :

but Bough proceeded to shut down the
null denartmert ON the nlea that he was
