IN CONFERENCE.
Wage Farmers and Employers are Both rryinE
to Sustain their Points.

PrTTsBuRG. Pa June 6.--The out
come OF conference being held, to-
day. upon the iron and steel wage
scales of the Amalgamated association
Is anxlously awaited by both managers
and employees. Both sides have for
some time been busily gathering data
for the support of their respective
claims. The workers are firm and say
that they will not concede q point.
They demand restoration of rates
paid under the Mckinley tariff law,
which means an advance over present
wages of twelve and one-half to fifteen
per cent. The claim of the manufact-
urers that prices have fallen since that
time, while admitted by the workers,
is not held to constitute just cause
for the reduction of wages, the men
claiming that higher prices might be
obtained and the benefits thereof
shared with the wage workers.
There are now. 1t is said. enough
tin plate manufacturers 10 the country
to supply the demand, with the excep-
tion of the plates used for export. The
Standard Oil company is the heaviest
consumer of tin plate for export. This
company received drawback, of re-
funding Of duties, from the govern
ment, last year, of 100000 for
plates that had been imported and
were then exported in the form of cans
and boxes containing American pro-
ducts. II this plate were made In the
United States, it would necessitate the
erection of more mills knd consequent
ly more employment to wage workers,
with little increased outlay. These
claims are being presented, 70 day, by
the delegates of the employees, while
the managers are advancing equal y
strong arguments ON the opposite side
Of the question. 1t seems probable
that the sessions OF the conference will
bs continued fer several days.
