The Great Strike.

PITTsBURG, July 1.-The great iron lockout
which was begun yesterday presented no new
features to-day, further than the report of the
signing of the amalgamated scale by another
firm. The latest desertion from the ranks of
manufacturers was the Lookout rolling mill
company Of Chattanooga, Tenn. This makes
eight firms that have signed the scale to date

INTEREST IN NEW YORK.
The Iron Troubles Watched Closely by the
Merchants in the Metropolis.

The Iron Troubles Watched Closely by the
Merchants in the Metropolis.
New YORK, June 30.-Much interest was
felt yesterday among iron men in this city
in the result of the conference of the man.
ufacturers and men at Pittsburg Charles
W. Kirchoff, editor of the Iron Age, who
has watched the proceedings in Pittsburg
closely, said to reporter yesterday that
"the manufacturers have been willing
all along to make some concessions on fac
tory rules and extras, but have insisted on
the So per ton basis. The committee from
the men, after long deliberation, finally
decided to submit their own scale and that
OF the manufacturers to the sub-lodges OF
the amalgamated association for the con-
sideration of the members. A lodge vote
was to be taken upon them and if two
thirds were in favor of the manufacturers
scale it was to be accepted. If not, the
men determined to insist upon the adOp-
ton of their own scale by the manufac-
turers
"This action" Mr.. Kirchof said, twas
a decided advance on the methods
formerly in vogue. The committe
from the men heretofore had met
the manufacturers committees and had
decided their differences themselves I'm
der the new arrangement the scales in
dispute were to GO to the men and the
manufacturers were to be allowed to rea-
son with their own men. In this way the
manufacturers hoped to be able to con-
vince their own employees of the neces-
sity for a reduction. One advantage of
this arrangement was that the two parties
to the contract were brought directly into
contact with each other and the argu-
ments of either side were not weakened
by being carried through committees of
more or less partial tendency one way or
another"
Mr.. Kirchoff believed that the finishers,
a more intelligent class of men than the
puddlers, were acquiring greater influence
among the men and might to some ex-
tent counteract the influence of the loud
voiced and belligerent puddlers, who are
always in favor of strike IS a means of
settling grievance.

A Shut Down Mt Milwaukee.

MILWAUKEE, June 90.-The failure of
the iron manufacturers and the amalga-
mated association of iron and steel workers
at Pittsburg to agree upon wage scale for
the coming year, necessitates the closing
down of the North Chicago rolling-mill
company's plant at Bayview, and the few
mill that have not been closed already
wills shut down tonight for an indefinite
period. The single-blast furnace that has
been In operation will continue working.
There is no issue between the local socie-
ties OF the amalgamated association and
the proprietors, but as a part of the whole
organization they must do as the others
do, and wait the outcome of the struggle
at the seat of war. The North Chicago
company is not member of the manu-
facturers' association, but it is none the
less governed by the action of other mills.
The best of feeling exists between Bay
view mill and their employees. There has
never been any serious differences be-
tween them, and all the shut-downs on
account of strikes or lock-outs that have
ever occurred there have been the result
of differences elsewhere. Both sides will
passiyely await the decision at Pittsburg.

An Indefinite Vacation.

CLEVELAND, o., June 90.-When the
whistles ofthe Union rolling-mills sounded
the hour of noon to-day 45O men stopped
work and embarked on an indefinite sum-
mer vacation. That was the extent of the
amalgamated association strike in this
city. 1t was learned that the men en-
ployed at the Lake Erie iron-works, the
Britton iron and steel works, the Otis iron
and steel works, and the Cleveland roll
these mills said that their men were at
work as usual, and that there was no an
ticipation OF trouble. At the Union mills
there was no demonstration.

edy on Street Car.
From the Boston Budgst.
You may have been a passenger on n
horse car at time when someone picked
up coin off the cushion or from the
straw, and anxiously inquired for an
owner. AT such time every man in
stinctively feels in his pockets. Every
man feels like saying that he is the lucky
party, but an inward voice somehow
restraints him. The money is invariably
pocketed by the finder, and he is set
down, in the opinion of his fellow pas
sengcrs, as contemplate and mean.
On South Boston car young man
purposely dropped silver piece on the
floor, ahd at proper moment he picked
it up and observed, "Who lost this quar-
ter?" Everyone looked at him and
every mouth watered, "Did any one
drop this?" continued the young man, as
he held it up. There was another en-
barrassing pause. Then burly man
reached out for it with the remark, Il
dropped it, master. You are gentle
man to return it" care YOU sure you
dropped it," II am. am not liar. ="
"But you see-you-" "You give me
my hard-earned money or ri wiring
your neck" interrupted the other, as he
reached out for his victim. The young
man gave it up. lie looked white, and
red and green, and he felt so bad over it
that he soon dropped off the car and took
to the sidewalk.

PORTLAND, Ore. Noy. 23.-The div
ision of the estate of Ben Holiday the
founder of the Trans Continental Pony
Express, and the pioneer stage coach
and steamship man of the Pacific coast,
is causing trouble. Recently the Court
appointed appraisers to fix the valuation
of the estate, bRti Joe Holiday, Benz
brother, who is executor, refused to give

Holiday filed a petition asking the
court to compel him to pay arrears
amounting to $4,000 on her monthly al
lowance, and to require him to submit
the property to appraisement.
Joe Holiday came forward with an
answer, denying that Ben Holiday died
possessed of property worth $15O,0OO,
and asserting that at the time of his
death he did not have the means to pay
the expenses OF his last sickness and
funeral. Joe Holiday also accuses Mrs.
Holiday and her legal advisers of con-
spring to embarass his management of
the estate, and says that Mrs. Holiday
is not in need of money to support her
self and her children, and that by econ
omy she can get along nicely on $500 n
month. lie also declares that if he is
forced to sell property to pay the in
dcbtedncss, enough cannot be realized to
pay claims due and presented, amount
