THE ISSUE BETwEEs MIR. CARNEGIE
AND HIS wORKMEN.

The public is naturally anxious to know
inst what the point in issue between Mr..
Carnegie and his men is. We have therefore
taken the trouble to investigate the matter
and we Law plain statement Of it before our
readers this morning.
Mr. Carnegie I'VE call his side of it by his
name for brevity) for some time has required
his workmen to sign an agreement for scale
on which their wages are to De busted
during the time this agreement shall remain
in force. The last agreement expired on the
3Oth June. He presented new scale for
their signature to begin on July /. 1892. The
workmen refused TO sign the new scale and
Mr.. Carnegie shut down his entire works.
The men refused TO sign for two
reasons: First. that a considerable reduction
was made in their pay, as they claimed, and
second. because the contract was toterminate
at January lst instead of July lst. The men
said if the contract terminated IN summer
they could go elsewhere and find work, but
if terminated in mid-winter they would be at
Mr.. Carnegies mercy in the matter Of
making new contracts. The question Of
wages turned upon this point. Inc steel
billet Of Aka inches is the unit of measure
ment in adjusting the wages ofthe men. They
insisted that the billet should be valued at
minimum of s24 while Mr.. Carnegie was
unwilling TO value it at more that S2S. MIR.
Carnegie claimed that he had made very large
expenditures recently in adding imported
machinery to his works which would enable
the men to cam as much per day on a scale
based on steel billets valued at S23 as they
had Heretofore earned on steel billets valued
at s26 so, and he thought the men should be
content if their wages were maintained at the
rate that they had received before his i'm
provements were made. The men thought
differently. however. and hence the strike.
We take from the Iron Ago, the most reliable
trade journal on this subject published in
America, the following table, which shows
what each man earned under the scale Just
expired, what each man would earn under the
same scale for a coming year and what each
man would earn under the scale that Mr. Car
negie proposed:

vb.n. therefore. Mr.. Carnegie attempted to

entry they did an unlawful thing.
IA for orr correspondents disastrous law
anti we should have to know more OF the
facts Of the case than he has stated before we
.conld discuss it intelligently. We assume
ho,vsver that his tenant claimed. when be
srod him, that the house was in the posses
sion Of him. the tenant, at the time our cor
respondent took possession of it, and that ne
was entitled TO the possession OF II. IL TINS
wss so our correspondent had no right 10
anter upon and take possession of the pro-
nerty without the tenants consent. One man
NAV he the owner of property and another
may be entitled TO possession OF it. and II one
ia in actual or even construchre possession
and another enters upon his possession with
ont his consent he IS O trespasser. IL is his
business 70 sue for the possession and let the
courts determine which is entitled thereto.
The distinction between Mr. Carnegie case
and our correspondents is this; The strikers
made no claim that they we're entitled TO the
possession OF the mills. ihoy oon4it'oo 'N
Mr.. Carnegie was entitled to possession OF
them. All of their claim was that he had no
r1ght to enter into possession with the COM
panions that he brought with him. But this
claim cannot be maintained.
In our correspondents case his tenant was in
constructive possession of the house and de-
MED our correspondents right to take possess
sion. Our correspondent had no right to Gust
his tenant by his own act and will. He should
have appealed to the law and have asked the
courts 20 GUST the possessor and deliver the
property to him. and Sir. Carnegie would
have had TO do this also if the strikers had
claimed right of possession and had denied
his right to possession. We thinkthis covers
ali the points made.

wILLIAM u. CLEMONs DEED.
This Popular Railroad Man Died I'm Newport
News-His Life.

News-His Iifcs
The sad intelligence reached Richmond last
night of the death of Mr.. William r. Clemons
formerly of Wytheville. Va. and for some
time an omploye of the claim office of the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company IN
this city. At the time of his death he was a
resident OF Newport News being employed
at the Chesapeake and Ohio local office
at that point. For his age che was
about twenty seven, Mr.. Clemous was
perhaps one Of the best known railroad clerks
in the State, having been employed on three
of the most important railroads. He was IN
the general freight offices Of the Norfolk and
Western under Mr. a. Pope, general freight
agent. at Roanoke, Va. the New York, Phila-
dephia and Norfolk, under Mr.. X. b. Cooke.
in Norfolk. general freight agent. and with
the Chesapeake and OHIO. under Dir. f. ID.
Hotchkiss general freight agent, in Rich
mond.
Mr.. Clemens left Norfolk on account Of his
health in July, 1890. and at once secured a
position in the claim Office OF the Chesapeake
aud Ohio railway. then recently moved TO
Richmond from Cincinnati. His qualihca-
tions as q railroad man, his devotion 70 the
service and his fidelity in the discharge of
every duty devolying upon him made him at
once a favorite with his superiors. while his
engaging manners. his kindly qualities of
heart and his social attributes gained him
friend in every one with whom he came in
contact.
Mr.. Clemens moved to Newport News in
September last for the purpose Of accepting
an important position in the local Office there.
and in that place as in Richmond he gave en-
tire satisfaction and formed a large circle OF
friends and acquantances Mr.. Clemens was
taken sick with typhoid fever on the 18th Of
June. but the disease did not assume dan
gerous phase until very recently, and until
last Saturday he was thought to be i'm
proving.
