FEARS FOR FRICK
The Forcs of Detectives at the Oar
neRie Of1ces Doubled.

neGie Ofaces Doubled.
PITrsBURG, Aug. 12.-Tbe report that
Chairman Fricks life may again be in dam
ger from the Vaccinations of anarchists
seems TO be credited to some extent by Mr..
Frick as well as by the Carnegie officials
and police authorities. The force of detect
ives is more than doubled at the offices of
the Carnegie company on Fifth avenue, and
every one visiting there, unless we'll known
to the officers on duty, is subject to strict
and searching scrutiny and has 20 run the
gauntlet Of inquisitive aud interested eyes.
NO INFORMATION OF AARoNsroM.
Secretary Lovejoy in commenting on the
report. said to,day: ''We have no direct or
special information in regard to this man
Aaronstom or his mission TO attempt the
life of Mr. Frick. While there may be
some truth in the report | know it is not
troubling Mr.. FricE to any extent, nor
does It in any wav interfere with
the conduct OF his business or per-
sonal mode of living. OF course 1t is only
common prudence TO take some few pre-
cautions, and even these do not believe
would be taken If Mr.. Prick consulted his
own wishes Personally | do not think
there is any danger whatever OF any further
attempts being make against Mr. Frick,
but, as said before, prudence dictates that
some precautions should be TAKEN"
THE NEW IRON SCALE.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug 12.-Satisfaction is
felt by both manufacturers and amalga-
mated men over the settlement of the iron
scale yesterday. Work begins next week.
Notwithstanding the denialS, there Is
great dissatisfaction among the finishers
over the action OF the amalgamated oon-
ference committee in signing their own
scale. They claim that their wages will
be reduced under the new scale
2S per cent. instead of 10
per cent, as given out, and they
threaten to refuse to abide by the commit
tees action. A conference Of the finishers
will be held tomorrow afternoon to arrange
for a meeting Of all the fiuishers iu the dis
trict tomorrow night. Nothing will be
done until after this meeting. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that the finishers will
accept the reduction in preference TO strik-
ing.
HOMESTEAD PLATES ACCEPTED.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, Aug. I2.-Supt. Potter
claims Tonight that he has met the workers
challenge that when any material made by
non-union men was accepted IL would be
time to concede that the great steel works
could be operated without them. He
savs that twelve carloads of plates
and channels have been accepted after
inspection by the parties to whom
they were consigned, and also that the Off
cial inspection of 81 tons of beams to-day
rolled through the 4-inch rolls has been
favorable on all but one beam, as good an
average as made by the old beam mill crew.
I'VE have at last commenced business com
mercially," he said, land from now on the
plant will be in operation just as though
there had been no strike or lockout ~
The advisory committee when notified
was loath to accept the statement and con-
tended that the shipments were purely
scrap or spoiled steel
The executive committee Of the Fedora
ton Of Labor met in Pittsburg to-day and
decided to not place a boycott OH the
product Of the Carnegie mills for the reason
that the amount Of such product was too
small.
