James G. Blaine for the Republican
nomination for President. 1t is conce'

THE conference between the iron
manufacturers and mill men as repre-
sented by the Amalgamated Association
held at Pittsburgh on Saturday, develop
ed the fact that the men are unwilling
to submit TO the proposed reduction Of
10 per cent. in wages, but will insist on
the present scale for the coming year,
commencing June i. That appears to be
their final conclusion. They ask no ad-
vance in any department, but object to
any reduction, claiming that present
rates are as low as they can stand. The
manufacturers refused positively to
agree to the cid scale, and on their mo-
tion the conference adjourned without
day. 1t is likely there will! be another
meeting in few days, when an effort
will be made to reach satisfactory terms.
Should the parties fail to agree before
June ia general shutting Down of the
iron mills in the sections operating under
the present scale will probably result.

there exists no reason to anticipate that

it will fail to reach the average height of

economic questions of this country, and
lit involves a political problem of the
highest Importance that OF naturaliza'

defective in many respects is notorious,

doubt require added force from the pub
