The Amalgama,ed mill scale expired
at midnight last night, and as a result,
many of the large iron and steel indus
tries of the country Will close down to-
day, while those which continue in
operation will pay the scale demanded
by the men pending a settlement.
Up to yesterday the only mills sign
ing the pudding and finishing scales
were the Wheeling Iron Company, the
Keystone Rolling Mill Company and
). Painter & Sons Company, of Pitts
burg, the Hyde Park Steel Co.. of APP
poia, Fa., the Monongahela Tin Plate
company, OF Pittsburg, and the Akron
Iron and Steel Company, while
P. II. Laufmann, the Oldest
TN plate manufacturer in the
United States, has signed the tin plate
scale. Laufmann is NOT a member of
the Manufacturers Association, run
ming his works independent. Yester-
day afternoon Jones & Laughlin, OF
Pittsburg, signed a special sheet iron
scale, and will continue to run.
In this city, the LaBelle will not be
in operation to-day, according to
statement made by President Robinson
yesterday to a Register reporter. The
Aetna-Standard will run until Satur-
day, when the plant will close down for
repairs. Whether or not the Riverside
or Bellaire mills will run could not be
ascerJained last night. There will be
another conference on the tin plate
scale tomorrow, but in the meantime
every tin mill in the country, except
Laufmann's, will close down or pay the
Amalgamated scale pending a settle
ment. The conference on the boiling,
bar mill and other scales sill in dis
pute will take place at Youngstown,
July 9Th. and pending a settlement
there most of the mills will close. The
point in dispute on pudding is between
the 81 per ton offered by the manufac-
turers and the $3.50 demanded by the
men
The constitution of the Amalgamat-
ed Association provides that upon the
expiration of an old scale, all men must
cease work, except when mills agree
10 pay the scale demanded pending
settlement Of the dispute. No case
could be recalled by local members Of
the Amalgamated Association, yester-
day. when there had been a diviaJion
from this rule, and it is hardly probable
there Will be one at this time.

Weather Conditions and General Forecast.

Washington, March THE Fla stern
storm is now central on the Nova Scotia
coast. Its western edge still touches New
England, and has caused light snow on the
coast of that section. Northerly gales still
prevail as lar south as Hatteras. The area
of high pressure has advanced to the Lake
regions, and irregular depression has de-
vclopcd in the Rocky mountains.
Except in New England, the weather is
clear in the Eastern districts. From
Mississippi to the Rocky mountains, there
is generally cloudiness with snow flurries
in the northern and light showers in the
southern portion. The temperature has
risen on the Rocky mountain slope and in
the lower Mississippi valley. 1t is colder
10 New England and there is Il light
change in temperature.
Generally fair weather is Indicated for
Thursday in the lower Lake region and
Atlantic coast district. Cloudy and I'M
settled weather will continue in the
Mississippi and districts to the westward.
Cloudiness will increase in the upper
Lake region, probably followed by light
snow.
The temperatures will remain nearly
stationary in the Atlantic coast districts
and lower Lake region. 1t will be higher

Loss. $4,000; S5O0c Insurance.

Lewiston, March Hams grist mill
and Ferd Pcnlcy's Armour's dressed beef
and provision house were burned, to-
night. The fire is supposed to have
caught from an electric light wire, the
fire being discovered in both buildings
about the same time, near o'clock.
A fierce wind was blowing and there
was danger of the fire igniting the Lewis
ton mill and Jordan Frost & Co.'S coal
and lumber yard, Il. W. Gross beef house
and large lump of adjacent buildings in
the Grand Trunk depot yard
Auburn could lend no assistance because
of the lack of bridge communication, and
for time affairs looked desperate. Good
lnck favored the firemen the wind blow
ing away from the Jordan Frost yards,
and by hard work the fire was coniuei to
the Ham grist mill and Penley beef house.
Gross heef house. was next north Of the
Ham mill, was damaged.
Penlcy's beef house was one of the finest
in Maine, and was built and opened two
wears ago. 1t was altogether separate
from penley's large slaughter and pack
ing house, which was in Auburn.
Ham 5 mill was an extensive plant and
was under the firm name of J. b. Ham

slrance of SO, 600. Penley' loss is $40,
