and it was decided to take firm and de
termined stand against the scale offered BY
the Amalgamated Association.
Clark s. Co. Sign.
Clark h Co., of the Solar Iron Works,
signed the scale tonight and the maDufac-
turers say they expect number of others,
including Carregil Bros, Wilson, Walker q
Co., D. I. Woods, Dilworth, Porter 4 Co.,
and the National Tube Works Co. to follow
suit. The manufacturers assert that the
action of these firms will in no wise affect
the situation as they work steel almost ex,
clusively.
The Scale Unsigned at Youngstown.
YOUNGSTOWN, O., May 29.-The new
scale from Pittsburg was received here yes
terday, and has been presented to all the
manufacturers in this district except Brown,
Bennel & Co., and the Mahoning
Iron Company, operating the Valley
Mills. Every manufacturer thus far has
refused to sign the scale, and the mills will
all close tomorrow indefinitely. Operators
here feel suspicious of certain operators IN
Pittsburgh, and claim that Pittsburgh par
ties are liable to sign at any moment. 1t
is claimed one mill in that city has booked
many orders for delivery after June lst.

The recent death in New York Of GEORGE
WASHINGTON Bowen recalls the scsndalous
career Of remarkable woman. Eighty.iour
years sgo New York Was dazzled By the sP-
pearanee Of belle whose beauty was the
theme of international talk. Her name was
TowsS, and in addition to high social posi-
lion she was the PoSsessor Of vast wealth.
She was unmarried, but had figured as the
morganstic wife Of several crowned heads,
and according 10 her own account, bad at
one time been nearest and dearest 10 the
"Fathtr Of his Country" In the course Of
her career in New York she met q rich
Freedman named Jumel, who overcsme
her objections to the marriage ceremony
ind prevailed upon her to become his wife.
She accompanied him to Europe, but re-
turned after JrNEL's death. The widow
was tat, fair, 6fty fond Of g merry life, and
her We alth kept her in good society. Among
her visitors was that veteran lady killer,
AARON B-RR then an old man of seventy
eight, but still devoted to the fair sex.
BURR Was very poor. but Madame JUNEL
married him and took him to her luxurious
home. In . year or Two the Madame be-
came Jealous of her risky companion. and
tie couple separated. BrER died in q short
time. but the Madame lived on until she
reached the age Of ninety, Naturally in
the course Of her long and varied career
this wonderful woman hsd been blessed
with occasional offspring Naturally too,
she had forgotten most OF them and failed
to keep up with their progress through the
world. One Of her daughters, however,
made respectable marriage, and inherited
her mothers fortune. Another child, q boy,
grew up 10 manhood without cUlivasing his
mothers acquaintance. He had no use for
so dazzling person After her death, how
ever, be sued for his share Of her estate, bu,
failed to establish his heirship. This was
the GEORGE WAsRINsroS BowEN who died
q short time ago.
