mated Association spent the entire day
yesterday in trying TO eliminate extras
from their new scale. The different lodges
demand that these extras be inserted, but
last year they had to be eliminated before
the scale would be signed by the manu-.
facturers, and it is probable the same
thing will take place this year. The
manufacturers are more firm than ever
in demanding q reduction, and some u
them say it will range from twelve
10 fifteen per cent II is claimed that the
base Of the scale must be fixed at 81 so foI
boiling on two-cent card, and the pay in
other departments reduced accordingly
They cay the puddlers in the East receive
only s. 25 to 81 25 per ton, and that q,
present wages they are unable to oompett

done il will be the greatest cut ever mad,
since the formation Of the AmalgamateC
association in 1876. The manufacturer
will complete their sale this week. It viii
