that the attempt of tho American steel
barge company, to Carnishec at Glove
laud, Alfred Merrtts verdict for SOi0, u.
900 against John D. Rockefeller, will no t

VIVA sufficient to satisfy tho notes.
There is now pending in tho federal

END OF FIHi4HEIts' UNION.


Rod 11ili Worker. Withdraw aud Form
Union OF Their Own.
CLEVELAND, O.. June l7.-Reprcscn,-
a.ives composing the National A.socia.
ton OF Iron and Steel Workers, known
rs che Finishers' Union, have been in
secre. session in this city for the last
few days. The question OF the rod
workers withdrawing and forming
union Of their own was brought up.
Forty-eight delegates, representing so
per cent OF the rod mill workers OF tho
United States, were in attendance, and
they decided TO form under tho title OF
the National Association OF Rod Mill
Workers. 4 constitution was adopted
and the following officers wero elected:
Grand president John Kane, OF Cleve-
land: grand vice president, E. S. Jones,
OF Pittsburgh; grand secretary and
treasurer. P. J.,Mundic. of Youn gstown;
grand trustees, John Farren, OF Cleve-
land; William parke4, OF Anderson,
Ind, and James Sexton, OF Cleveland.
Revolutions wore adopted sympathiz-
ing with L. Y. Dcbs and his colleagues.
This convention practically winds up
the iinishers' union. There have been
recent accessions from it by the Anal.
gamatcd Association OF Iron and Steel
workers, and the withdrawal OF the rod
mill workers leaves only four lodges.
These will disband worry soon.
The next convention OF the rod mill
men will be held in Cleveland in Janu.

Portland, January %, 1894.
To the Editor of the Press:
My attention has been called to an
item in one of the city papers to the
affect that an attempt is being made to
unite the Abyssinian church and the
Mountfort street Methodist church. I
wish to say that know of no such at
tempt. An effort is being made by
some Congregationalists in the interest
of the Abyssinian church, but so far as
[ have knowledge, no scheme has been
conceived of incorporating that church
with any other. It is greatly to be ad-
vised that all the colored people in Port
land should be together in one large.
strong church, but beyond the express
sion Of this desire. l have heard nothing
of an attempt TO unite the Abyssinian
church with any other.
Very truly yours,
]. l.. JENKINS,
State street church.
