Although but few weeks have elapsed
since the reelection Of President Mckinley,
and in the face of the fact that the plant was
never buster, having sufficient work on hand
to keep the entire force OF 5000 men steadily
employed for year, the Pennsylvania Steel
Company on Frid ay last caused notice of a
10 per cent reduction in wages to be posted
in all the departments Of the big works al
Steelton, Pa. The order will go into effect
January l, 1901.
Persistent rumors have been circulated
since the election that the company con
templated such a move, but the denisls Of
the officials quieted the workmen's fears
The men do not take the news OF the cut
philosophically. They regard the excuse Of
the company that II is not getting as good
prices for steel rails and other products o
the mills as formerly as rather Aimsy. The
company recent y secured big bridge con
tract from New York City which will take
many months TO complete
The officials of the company were reticent
about the matter and would not say whether
the cut would apply to the Sparrows Point
works Of the Maryland Steel Company.
