puddlers at Lockhart's mill, at McKee's
Rocks, are also on strike for the same rate
and the mill is closed down. These de-
mands bring TO light some interesting facts
concerning the work of the Amalgamated
Association. For weeks the officials have
been organizing lodges in the various nom
union mills and preparing for general
strike for the 81 rate. The demand was to
be made simultaneously throughout the dis
trict, and the date for May 12 The
men at Lockharts mill were in the move
ment. but, not caring to wait for the date
set for the general movement, they struck
yesterday. There are fiye hundred men out
there. Strikes will soon follow In all the
mills where the 81 rate is not paid.
Twenty negro puddlers arrived in the city
TO take the place of strikers at the Sligo
mill. They were met by committee of the
strikers and induced not TO go to the mill.
Although the Amalgamated officials deny
IL. there is good authority for the statement
that the Amalgamated is bringing about
the puddlers' strike in pursuance of a COM
tract with the Shenandoah and Mahoning
furnace men. They signed the scale for 81
with the understanding that the Anal
gamated would bring pudding up to that
figure in Pittsburg. A gentleman who at
tended the conference makes this state
ment. A peculiar feature of this strike is
that the Analgamated has promised the
strikers benefits, though they are not yet
members of the organization.

JAPAN's POSITION.
Chiefly Concerned i'm Securing n Suf-
fcient Indemnity.


WASHINGTON. May Sit is the belief
among officials that serious European COM
plications over the Japan-China settlement
will be averted. The interview of the Jap
anese minister at Paris TO the effect that
Japan was chiefly concerned in a sufficient
indemnity and commercial concession, is
understood to sum up the situation. The
cash indemnity was reduced 1O0, 900 900 yen
in consideration OF additional cessions of
territory, but now that Russia protests
against the cession of the Lao Tung
peninsula. TO Japan, it is not improbable
that an understanding satisfactory to both
nations may be reached by which Japan
will get more indemnity and less territory
1t is stated that Japan begins to realize
what great expense, present and pros
pective. she has been put to, and how incon-
siderable the 200,00O.0O0 yen indemnity is in
meeting this. There have been two issues
of war bonds reaching $3.50. 600, 600 yen, and
beside this Japan had 30O01,000 yen on hand
at the opening of the war. Most. if not
all, of this money has been expended on
the war; so that the indemnity will not
meet the past outlay. Besides this, II is
said the withdrawal of the troops from
China, the payment of pensions 10 families
of Japanese soldiers and the cost of MAIN
tanning or returning about 1000 Chinese
prisoners now on hand, makes an increased
indemnity desirable.

LONDON, May 3.--In the House of Com
mons, this evening, a motion made by Mr.
Alpheus c. Morton to annul the annuity of
10000 paid by Great Britain to the Duke
of Edinburgh, second son of the Queen, was
defeated by a decisive majority, the vote

fact that the Duke of Edinburgh is now a
reigning German sovereign. he being the
Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.
The Duke of Edinburgh succeeded to the
throne of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha on the
death of his uncle, Duke Ernest. The Brit
ish Parliament had voted 10 him the sum
of f25 600 per annum but shortly after his
accession he renounced $4,000 of the sum,
but desired to draw the remaining 1000
yearly. The Duke is an admiral of the fleet
in the British navy and short time ago
was elected an Under Brother Of the Trim
ity House He retains his place in the navy
list without pay, and without capacity for
active service. as a mark of honor for his
long and distinguished services.
