ger j. M. Flagler, of the National Tube
works, McKeesport, Tenn, is here from
New York city to make arrangements to
shut down the immense plant, which en-
ploys about 1000 hands Recently there
was general reduction of wages in the
hope of tiding over the period of depres-
sion, but this has failed. Mr.. Flagler
says the flat market caused by the Mills
GUS competition from abroad, and the
mills must close. Not only the McKees-
port works, but half dozen other plants,
representing $5,0000Q0 invested capital
and employing $4,000 hands, will have to
shut down. Personally Mr.. Flagler is
Democrat, and the course of his company
cannot therefore be ascribed to politics. "
Four thousand employees in a single es-
tablishment condemned to idleness be-
cause of an attempt to carry President
Cleveland's policy into effect And the
prospect is that $4,000 more, engaged in
the same industry, will suffer in similar
manner from the same cause! If sush
things are done in the green tree, what
