The Iron Strike.

CLEVELAND, o., July 16.-Nothing oc-
CURED to-day to mar the peace of the iron
ward. The strikers as rule kept to their
homes. and none were to be seen in the
neighbOrhOOd of the mill Their over
whelming defeat in the brush with the DO
lice yesterday appears to have had a dis
heartening effect on the crowd. The col
lisiOn between the police yesterday is al
most the only topic OF conversation this
morning. The yards of the company were
guarded by detachment of $50 patrolmen
under the command of Capt. Hoehn. There
has fortunately been no call for their SER
vices. Complete preparations have been
made to resume work in the plate mill.
Fires IN all the pudding furnaces
were lighted and at O'Clock the
whistle blew as signal for the men to be-
gin their toll, but the machinery was not
set in motion. The men have become in
timldated by the strikers and stated they
preferred ldleneSS for a few dayS. They
had no fears of interference while at work,
but apprehended violence while on the Way
home. The men were addressed by Supt
Patton, who stated that he had no dispOsi-
ton to expose them to danger, so he there
fore ordered the mill closed until next Mon
day, thus no department of the mill is in
operation. The boiler works did not re-
sumo to-day. AS there was no need of the
police after this decision had been reached.
they departed for home at 9 o'clock. The
strikers have had no meeting, and it is
thought that they will hold none to-day.
The Cleveland Rolling Mill company sub
mitted the following to the police commits
sionerS tonight: I'VE have decided to post
at our works the following notice: AS
some of the employees of the company de-
cline to resume work through fear of being
assaulted, 1t has been decided by the board
OF directors to keep the entire works closed
until such time as employees desire to re-
turn peaceably to work in all their
several departments 1t is our desire to
continue the shipment of material now.on
hand, and for the peaceable performance of
this we could request that you detail Suf-
ticient force to amply protect the men thus
employed in shipping, and also for protec-
ton of our plant"
The Poles in the Fourteenth ward drilled
to-day, and it is feared that they are or
ganizing for another row. The wounded
strikers are doing nicely, although one or
two OF them are lowering between life and
death. There was no disturbance of any
kind to-day.
AT BAY CITY.
BAY CITY, Mich, July 16.-No new de-
Leans mill has started again on ten hours
day until further OrderS-the same terms
as when running before. The men backed
down from a demand for a contract for
any time ahead-the part for which
they struck before. D. c. Blinn, arrested
here, Is in Jail at Saginaw, still
unable to procure bail. Contributions are
still being rapidly received by the commit
tee to enable the strikers to hold out for ten
hours day and no reduction in pay.
Money and provisions of all kinds are be-
ing donated. Only three mills, one single
mill and two salt blocks are in operation
here. The balance of the mill men and
strikers seem as determined.as ever to hold
out. There is no predicting when the end
will come.
