Not Effect the Nailers.
In conversation with pro ninent mailer
Yesterday, he stated to a reporter that he
apprehended no trouble between the Anal
gamated Association and the United Nailers
of America, "for," said he, "the fixing of the
scale by the Amalgsmated Committee can
have no possible effect upon us, as we are a
separate and distinct body, and although
this has been impressed upon the minds OF
all the iron workers, some of them are still
foolish enough to believe that we will be
affected by strike on the part of the Anal
gsmation, should one occur"
well, why did they, in their scale, ad
varce the price of making steel nails 20 per
cent? What could have been their object
THAT is where you get me, cannot see
what end they have in view, as steel nails
are as easy if not easier to make than iron
nails. OF course, if we were still in the
Amalgamated Association, this change, or
insertion, would have the effect Of bringing
back the manufacture ofiron nails or would
result in a strike, and all the mills in the
Western district would be closed down in all
departments should the latter result occur,
and it is very likely 1t would"
n see some talk in Pittsburg paper to
he effect that if the conference committees
could not agree and strike resulted the
Pittsburg nailsrs would be effected"

not gotten things just exactly in shipshspe

lodge that has not surrendered its charter to
the Amalgamated Association yet, and that
is at Mingo Junction, but it is very probable
