gamated association and Messrs. Morgan,
SchWab and Gary, representing the United
States Steel corporation. When the con-
ference opened yesterday was confidently
expected that an agreement would be
adjourned without arriving at any con-
clusion, so far as known, to meet again
this morning.
The protracted session indicates that the
board is not satisfied with the provisions
OF the compromise measures and unless
some notifications are made it's ratifica-
tion is doubtful. The opening of union
milsl to nonunion workmen is the point
which it is believed the board hesitates
to accept and the long distance telephone
system between New York and Pittsburg
was working further to get a modi-
deation Of the clause. The Workmen hold
that this would give the mill owners full
opportunity for crushing the union without
strike by finding excuses to discharge
union men and then fill their places with.
nonunionists.
Another rock of dissension is said to be
the retention in their present jobs of the
men who worked as 'strike breakers" at
the various mills during the strike 1t is
said that these men have been promised
the protection Of the manufacturers in
case of settlement and that they will
not concede their dismissal at the request
of the organization. The workers, 1t is
said, are willing to declare the mills now
working nonunion open mills, but siren
uously object to having all the mills Of
the combine classified as open mills.
