ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE pIsPArcH.l
WHEELING, August 6-The action of the
Laughlin nailers in going out on a strike against
the first attempt to manufacture the new light
weight nails for the trade will bring a new.
although not unexpected complication, into the
efforts of the manufacturers to better their
condition, and to-morrow's meeting is expected
to be the scene of long and grave deliberation
over the matter. The nailers say they will
strike IN every mill where an attempt is made
to cut the new nails, and many say they will
abandon the trade rather than submit to the
further reduction in wages.
On the other hand the manufacturers say
they NAV as well continue to cut the heavy nails
as pay the increased price for the light ones
and that an increase is out of the question. A
big strike is therefore among the possibilities
of the situation, although the Laughlin naiIers
are now back at work. the firm having con-
ceded the point for the present.
