The Approaching Strike.

PI1TsBURG, MAY 2S-The situation OF af-
fairs between the iron manufacturers and
woIkmen is without marked change, and il
is generally believed prolonged suspension
is inevitable. Thursday nextvill witness
the expiration of the existing scale, and
work will then be stopped in all the mills
which up 10 that time have not signed the
new scale. That the steel mills will con-
unue in operation is generally understood,
and it is conceded also that few iron mills
will sign the scale. With these exceptions,
however, the prospects are that the iron
mills in this region and the Yves, will shut
down Friday next, to continue closed for an
indefinite period.
PITTsBURG, May %. - From on official
source a complete list of all the iron mills In
PittsbuIg and the West is obtained, which il
is claimed will shut Gown on Thursday night
in consequence of the strike that the work
men will inaugurate on that date.
All have refused 10 sign the Amalgamaced
Association scale OF wages, II is alleged and
a lockout must be the result. Toe list is as
follows: Pittsburg district, twentv-nine
firms, many OF whom operate several mills
under one name; Western Pennsylvania,
outside of Pittsburg district, eight rolling
mills; Cincinnati, Ohio, district, seven roll
ing mills; Wheeling, w. Va, district which
extenos into Ohio, fourteen mills; Ohio dis
trict below Wheeling and Louisville, three
mills, ore of which Is noW IDLE; MahOning
Valley, thirteen mills; Interior Counties oi
Ohio, five mills; the Lake Counties, one mill;
Indiana. two mills; Illinois. four mills,
one of which is at Chicago, and
thee at BelleYilie; Wisconsin on mill, at
Milwaukee; Missouri, two mills; Michigan,
two mills; Nebraska, two mills. THIS list
dOeE not embrace the steel mills, which may
