NAIL MILLS CLOSING DOWN.

Pittsburg Manufacturers Unable to-
Cope With Present Competition.
PITTsBURG, Aug. 26.-~An unexpected
change is about to take place with the
manufacturers and the naiers. The
lockout between them, which lasted thir-
teen months, ended in a compromise of
1Sc. on a so % card. During the strike
the manufacturers lie. card, which they
made at Cincinnati, was accepted by
some OF the men in the Wheel
ing district, and the factories were
started. The Pittsburg nailers refused to
work on the tic. card and did not start
till compromise was reached, which
was for 1Sc. The manufacturers
started up, but when they found that the
market could be supplied with nails made
for less than they were paying and hav-
ing TO contend with cutting of prices,
they refused orders and one by one shut
down. The men employed in the factories
at points down the river have resumed at.
the tic. rate.
