The Plate Mill at the Steel Plant May
Be Started To-Day With Old Men.
A Chronicle of Briefly Mentioned
Notes from the Glass City.

The plate mill will probably be
started up this morning with the old
men. The latter have been working in
the steel plant, together with the new
men, since it was started, but suffi-
ceient number of new men are now
available to relieve the plate mill men
and return them to their former posi-
lions. The company will likely relieve
the blast furnace men, who are now
working in the steel plant, and place
them in their old positions just as soon
as new men arrive to take their places.
At present enough new men in addi-
, tion to the blast furnace men, are at
hand for running the steel plant double
turn. The strikers remain as firm as
ever in their decision.
