Moving for a Settlement.

FROSTBURG. Md, April 1S.-An unex-
pected change came upon the strike sit
uation to-day in the Georges Creek coal
mining region. About two-thirds of the
employees of the Elkhart mine of the Con-
solidated Coal Company, met in nom
union secret meeting and discussed the
strike in its various phases. The labor
leaders were excluded from the hall and
union and non-union employees of the par
ticular mine locked themselves into a hall
and talked the matter over in their own
way. 1t was finally decided to appoint
two delegates to wait upon President C.
K. Lord, of the Consolidated company,
for the purpose of discussing the strike
and arranging terms upon which employees
of the mine should return to work. One
union and one %non-union miner were elect
ed for this office. Supt. Randolph was
notified and wired Mr.. Randolph in Balti-
more the facts in the case, and will en-
deavor to fix a date on which the delegates
can meet him.
Employees N the Ocean mine have fol-
lowed in the footsteps of their c%o-laborers
and have called a meeting for tomorrow,
at which similar action, 1t is thought, will
be taken.
The union leaders claim that the object
sought to be attained by the employees
of the individual mines is what United
Mine Workers desire.
Supt. Randolph will issue circulars to-
morrow stating that all applicants for
employment after tomorrow will be con-
sidered on equal footing.

PARKERSBURG, w. Va, April 49,
Perry d. Dye, a blacksmith in this city,
whose shop is in an alley back of the
county Jail, has filed the largest dam
age suit ever filed in the United States
Court. 1t is against the Whiteman,
Barnes Company for the infringement
of a patent and places the damages at
one million dollars. The suit was
filed in the U. S. court for the Northern
District of Ohio, at Toledo, to-day.
Several years ago Dye secured a pat
ent on a pipe and nut wrench. He took
it to the Whiteman-Barne Company,
works are at Akron, Ohio. and who
have branches in New York, Chicago,
st. Louis, San Francisco. London, Par
is and Canada, and tried to sell it to
them. Some time later they returned
his model, refusing to buy.
1t is now alleged in the pill that re-
Gently Dye, who had sold an interest
IL AIo puNClIs W Wllllduu I1OiAACS, VI
Huntington, w. Va, and sues jointly
with him, discovered that the Whit
man-Barnes company were selling a
wrench infringing on their patent. An
investigation was instituted and the
result was the suit for damages. Dyes
attorneys, who have been working the
case up for some time, think the
mount of the damages claimed is
small and that it can be easily shown
that he has been damaged to that ex-
tent.
1t is alleged in the bill that the
wrench which the defendant company
is selling, is stamped Patented" with
the date of the patent on It, and that
the patent office records fail to show
that any patent on a wrech of any
kind was issued on that day. But
whether the Whitman-Barnes wrench
is patented or not. Dye claims it is an
infringement on his patent and in
tends to push his suit. Col. J.. d.
Wolverton, a candidate for the Dem
ocratic nomination for State Senator,
Caldwell & Watson, of this city. and
A. d. Follett, of Marietta, are Dyes
attorneys.

PITTSBURG, Pa, April 1S.-The
American Manufacturer will a to-
morrow:
The below of the bulls is still heard
in the midst OF the growl of the bears.
The bears are growing their fercest,
but the bulls have a note or two left.
The strong market still exists in spite
of the attempt at wrecking it begun a
couple of weeks ago at New York. The
features of the market which were so
strong a week ago hold their power.
Some of the branches that were weaker
than the strongest have recovered and
are entirely out of the reach of the
raiders.
The sheet mills suspended produc-
ton. Still the lower prices did not
come. At last the buyers came and
according to the warning at that time,
the very men who were afraid to buy
at So are now paying $3.40, the mini
mum, which will not stand many
weeks.
Structural material is strong at the
former figures, billets are strong,
plates are showing a tendency to re-
cover. and sheets are on a firm basis.
Steel bars have been adjusted to other
values and even the refined bar iron
has been dropped to $2.40 in the east,
though the Pittsburg product has had
no occasion to go below $3.50. Should
the wreck not occur, as is most prob
able, as in the case of the sheet slump,
there will be some rushing for cover
Movements in Bessemer that ceased a
week ago have not been resumed. The
furnace men have fixed their rate at
S24, valley furnace. and it will require
something decisive to move them.
| Business for the second half of the
year has not been offered, but the pro-
| ducers are without worry.
Steel bars have dropped S. per ton.
Structural material is in better demand
| throughout the west and among the
| contracts recently closed was one for
1000 tons of shapes destined to the
| copper regions of Montana. The Pull
| man Palace Car Company has bought
2,4Oo tons of pig iron for June, July
and August deliveries.
