sands. The people whiled away the time
shouting for Blaine, Harrison and Nor

from the grand stand, and after few
words of tribute to Mr.. Blaine, he sent
Cappa's band to the hotel balcony to ser
enade the distinguished statesmen. The
band played Marching Through Georgia,
the crowd adding their voices. Home,
Sweet Home was then rendered, and in a
few moments storm of applause arose
as the hero of the occasion made his ap-
pearance. When Mr.. Blaine appeared
on the stand Mr.. Ford again called
Mr.. David Healy to read an address
on behalf of the workingmen Of
New York 10 Mr.. Blaine. The address
was strong Endorsement of protection.
Mr.. Blaine was then introduced and after
the applause subsidized said:

myself. 1t rather signifies the great pop
ular interest in the question upon which

lays of the day, it rolled into the depot at

A Strike.

PITTsBURG, June 29.-The iron-work-
ers strike is now on and by tomorrow
noon, the mills will be idle. At a con-
ference of the wage committees of the
Amalgamated Association and Iron
Manufacturers this afternoon, the
Workers representatives stated that
the lodges had voted upon the question
of reduction and had decided almost
unanimously to reject it. The Manu-
facturers then stated in language just
as positive that they would not pay the
present wages. a scale has been pre-
sented them for final consideration,
tomorrow. Should all the mills close
it would affect 100000 men directly.
PITTsBURG, Pa, June 29.-In an in
terview tonight, M. Werner, of the
Pittsburg Forge and Iron Company
said that the statement that the mills
were closing for repairs is untrue. They
are closing because manufacturers will
not pay the present wages. The work
men are determined to stand out for
the scale, and the firms present indica-
tions are that the struggle will be long
and bitter. In this city $500 men will
be thrown out of employment by the
strike and in the west it is estimated
not less than $1,000 workmen will be
affected. All the mills in the west, ex-
cept few operated by non-union men,
will close down tomorrow.

feeling exists between VI Iormons and
GentiIes than formerly. resolutions
are not so rigorous ana Mormons
are giving less occasion for them, Po-
lygamy is not being taken to by the
young people, and it is not preached
anywhere. The political lines are be-
ginning to divide on the usual national
issues instead of the Mormon question.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sloan say the Mormons
are not opposed to mining, and that
now, when the agricultural interests
have been attended to, and the country
has been made fertile and habitable,
the mines can be worked prom tally
and safely, no doubt.

NV LONDON, Conn.,, June GA
fresh, cool wind was blowing from the
east this afternoon, but the high banks
on the east side of the river protected
the course of the Yale-Haryard race
so that it was in almost perfect condi-
ton. The crews seemed evenly matched
in physique, Harvard having if any
thing a slight advantage with a north
erly wind. The time, it was thought,
would be very fast, and quite likely
break the record. There was but little
betting. Slight odds in YaIe's favor
were offered, with Few takers. The
Haryard's cling to their old stroke, and
the spectators claimed they were not
in as good form as Yale.
New LONDON, June 29.-Yale's time
was 20 minutes 10 seconds, Harvard
q minutes IA seconds; Yale winning
by l minute and seconds.
The series of races between the Har-
ward and Yale College crews now stand
six to five in favor of Yale. Yale's time
to-day is the fastest ever made on the
river, surprising that made last year
by Harvard, 1920. In the race with
Columbia, the story of the race can, be
briefly summarized: Yale had better
crew than she has ever had before,
and they gave the most perfect exhibit
ton of eight-oared racing ever seen on
the Thames river. Their movements
from the start to the finish, were the
projections of grace. Harvard, however,
rowed with the poorest crew she has
ever sent to New London, and they re-
ceived the worst defeat Harvard ever
got from a Yale crew. 1t fact, it was
simply a walk over from the start, to
the finish.
