tween the Iron manufacturers and the
Amalgamated Association of Ironworkers
were adjusted at the conference. which ad-
journed at 10:30 O'Clock tonight. after an

mills will resume at once, and the valley
and western mills will follow in a few days.
The settlement does not affect the Home

CHICAGO, Aug. 10.-A special from Wash
ington to the Daily News says: "Diplo-
matte circles are considerably agitated over
the announcement that Minister Tsui, the
Chinese representative to this country, is
about TO be recalled, owing to the Chinese
Emperor's dspleasure of the prominence
which the Minister took in the negotiation
by which Count Mitkiewicz and other shady
spectators proposed to establish an Inter
national bank in China. which would absorb
all the railroads, the telegraph lines, etc.
OF the Orient The proposed recall of the
Minister comes so soon after China's rejec-
ton Of ex-senator Blair as United States
Minister 10 that country that the two events
are being linked together Minister Tsui
was mainly instrumental in having Blair re-
lected, and as result the friends of the ex-
Senator have for some time been longing TO
retaIiate by having the Minister recalled.
The State Department officials have shared
this feeling TO a considerable extent, and as
result SIR. Tsui has had hard diplom attic
lot since he had Blair deposed."
