LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT

Special TO the Register.
Charleston. ". Va. August 3.-Noth-
ing has occurred in the kanaWna OF
New River coal fields to-day to give en-
couragement 70 the strike movement
In fact. the news is rather depressing
% the organizers.
The meeting at Montgomery yester-
day was not only without good results,
but the effect has been rather against
the organizers.
The miners az Handley, who went out
nearly a month ago, returned 10 WoIA
to-day. because they say the organizers
are not accomplishing anything, ana
they do not propose 70 remain ldle
while others work.
The New River miners are all at
work except those at Laurel Creek ana

was not among the miners to-day. 0ut
remained at his hotel in this city. Fred
Dilcher went to the New River region

Of the striking miners who called on
him TO inquire concerning the injunc-
ton against them. and TO ask wnat
were their rights in connection with
addressing miners. The Governor re-
minds them that his Office is executive,
and he cannot therefore interfere with
the action Of the courts, but he goes
on to say that in his opinion there Is
the utmost freedom allowed in the dis
cussion in public places Of any subject
the only restrictions being that there
must not be trespass upon the prop
erty of others, nor Indictment TO riots
or unlawful violence. He assures them

ton. and that he thought if he threw
the body in the river it would not be
found for several days and perhaps not
until after it had become so badly de-
composed that it would not be recog-
nizable.
He made a number of other asser-
tions in the confession that are known
to be untrue, and the general opinion
is that he has written the confession
solely for the purpose Of trying TO
work on the sympathies of the judge
and jury.
A number of people who saw the
two men at the lime they passed
through this place. and not more than
a few hours before the crime was
committed were at the Court House to-
day and when they were told of the
confession, and especially this part Of
it. they claimed that it was tissue Of
falsehoods.
The case was adjourned until the
October term of court. which convenes
on the 18th.

THE SCALE
Accepted by the Amalgamatsd ASso-
ciaiion--Some of the Reductions.

Youngstown, O., August 3.-The new
Amalgamated Association wage scale
was signed this afternoon by Presi-
dent Garland, of the Amalgamated As
sociation of Iron Steel & Tin Workers,
and Secretary James H. Mutt, of the
Iron Manufacturers Association. The
scale finally agreed upon was in the
main as follows:
Guide mills, rolling and heatinig, 10
per cent. reduction on straight.
Roughers, TX per cent. reduction.
Bar mill, heating and rolling, 10 per
cent. reduction for iron and Is per
cent. for steel.
Sheet bar works, no reduction ex-
cept for heating, and it is the same as
on the bar mill.
Plate mill rolling and heating same
before.
Skelp mill rolling and heating, IL
per cent. reduction.
Puddle mill rollers, no reduction.

rate.
The whole scale is governed by a
one cent card rate, which means one
cent per pound selling proce for bar
iron. When the selling price for bar
iron goes up everybody's wages go up,
but wages cannot go any lower than
they are now, no matter how low the
selling price of bar iron goes. Alto
gether. tthe men affected do not con-
slider the new scale as poor for them
as it might be, as the one cent card
rate gives them some protection.
The Mahoning Valley Iron Company
will put one of its puddle mills into
operation tomorrow morning, and
some of the finishing mills will go on
next Monday. The Brown-Bonnell
Iron Companys plant will start next
week. II was announced by the other
manufacturers that there would not
be much delay before they start up
their plants.
Although the Union Iron & Steel
Company, which has several plants,
was not represented in the conference,
il is understood on good authority that
they will sign the Scale and at least
put the local plant Ii operation
