A SHUTDOWN AT BAYVIEW.
No Local Issue, But the Organization
Must Be Sustained.

No Local Issue, But the Organization
Must Be Sustained.
MILwAUKEE, WIS June S0--The failure
Of the iron manufacturers and the Anal
gamated association of iron and steel
workers at Pittsburg to agree upon a wage
scale for the coming year, necessitates the
closing down Of the North Chicago rolling
mills company's plant at Bayview, and the
few mills that have not .ecl closed
already will shut down tonight for
an indefinite period. The single
blast furnace that has been in operation
will continue working There is no issue be-
tweenIthe local societies of the Amalganated
association and the proprietors. but as a
part of the whole organization they must
do as the Others do and await the
OUTCOME or THE STRUGGLE
at the seat of war The North Chicago
company is not member of the Manufact-
urers' association, but it is none the less gov
erned by iae action of the other mills. The
best of feeling exists between the Bay View
mill men and their employers There has
never been any serious differences between
them, and all the shut-downs on account of
strikes or lock-outs that have occurred
have been the result of differences else
where. Both sides will passively await the
decision at Pittsburg.

oHARLEsToN's SENSATION.
The Episcopal Church Accused OF Con-

The Episcopal Church Accused OF Con-
trolling the Governorship.
CHARLESTON, S. c., June 30.-A sensa%
tion was caused here to-day by tho pIblica@
tion of card from we'll known politician,
who charges that the path to the governor
ship of the state lies only through the
Protestant Episcopal church. and that the
same church dominates the state university,
while the Methodists, Baptists, Presby-
terians and Lutherans, the least of whom
outnumber, the Episcopolans fifty to one,
have been compelled to build and support
their own colleges "The time has comes
he says "when men of religious principles
should be made governors and that their
eligibility should not be confined to the
Episcopal church. He, therefore, nomi-
mates Giles J. Patterson of Chester,
who has been superintendent of
Methodist Sunday school for years,
for the Office of governor at tho ensuing
election. The card has caused some COM
ment and some researches into recent his
tory. IL is found that most of the ante
belLtGnt governors of this state were Episco-
palians by profession, If not by practice.
HOW IT STANDS.
Since 1876. whom the democrats gained
possession of the government, there have
been four governors elected--Hampto
Hagood, Thompson and Richardson, all
Episcopalians. Some curious results are
expected during the approaching campaign
on this line. The denominatlonal colleges
have, ever since 1875, been waging war in
the legislature on the state university, and
finally succeeded in partially abolishing
free tuition. The Methodists, Baptists and
Lutherans have each two colleges in the
state and the Presbyterians one. The Epis-
copalians contribute TO Sewanee university
