The strike OF the lower Benwood
plate mill is ended. The meeting be-
tween the helpers and President Hub
bard, announced in Sundays Regis
ter, occurred yesterday morning, ana
after conference the helpers finally
agreed to accept the new scale and
go TO work. The plate mill has been
idle for several weeks on account Of
the helpers refusing TO accept the
new scale when first proposed.
According to the new scale, the
helpers, who previously had been paid
by the day, were put on a tonnage
basis and asked to make six heats 2
day instead Of FIVE, as formerly. The
men refused to accept this, declaring
that they could not make as much
being paid by the ton as they did for
merly, and that the new scale meant
a reduction in wages. They held To
this view, but for a week or 80 past it
has been apparent that they were re-
considering the matter and that they
would finally decide to 90 back to
work. This they finally did yesterday
at the conference with President Hub
bard, at which the heaters were also
present The plate mill is expected TO
resume Monday or Tuesday OF next
week. The statement that appeared
in an evening paper that orders had
been issued to start to-day was entire
ly incorrect. The following has been
furnished as the rate of wages which
would be paid each man under the
new scale:
Steel, per ton-Heaters' helpers,
IL 1-10c; run downs. IL 1-10c; pealmen,
10 2-10c; chargers, 8 S-10c; pull overs,
cents per ton on entire output; shear
men, 3 Bloc on output.
Iron, per ton-Run downs, II 5-10c;
pealmen, II 7-10c; chargers, 10 9-10c;
pull overs, on output, 7-10c; shear
men, on output, 47-10c; assistants, on
output, 7-10c.
The steel works has been running
steadily ever since the adjustment or
the dispute over the reduction Of
wages in that department and when
the plate department resumes next
week the whole plant will be in opera
ton except the pudding department,
which has been idle since before
Christmas President Hubbard did
not speak very encourag ingly of the
puddlers going to work soon, stating
that at the present market prices there
was little if any profit in iron. 1t is
likely that the plant will continue to
work on steel for some time.

Jack Giasscock, who is to play

League club this summer, yesterday
gave a Register reporter some irfor-
nation concerning Grand Rapids as a
base ball town. 1T was the poorest
in the Western League he said. and

reyson makes both ends meet. Our
club was among the leaders all last
season, and during the week in Grand
Ranids we played to an attendance
which averaged about one hundred,
and sometimes went as low as fifty
day. The Island park. Of last season
is much better than the Grand Rapids
grounds, and the grand stand more
commodious and better constructed.
Aside from any other consideration, !
think Torreyson is making a mistake
