RUMORS OF SETTLEMENT
OF STEEL STRIKE RENEWED.

10 the officers or members OF the Anal
gamated Association in South Chicago.
Michael r. Tighe, assistant secretary OF
the National body. has arrived in Chica-
go. He AT once set out for the scene of
the meeting of last Sunday, which has
stirred the national officers of the Union.
Secretary Tighe comes clothed with all
the powers and preroga tives of President
Theodore Shaffer. whose deputy he In and
his first official act was to call together
the leading members OF tho dissenting
unions anu order a special Joint meeting
OF the two lodges OF the association.
which will be held tonight
The purpose OF the meeting has not
been announced, but Secretary Tighe
does not deny that messages from Mr..
Shaffer TO the lodges will be read and
that an attempt will be made TO have the
vote of last Sunday reconsl ,red.
Although the secretary denies that the
question Of financial all would be consid-
cred, IL is understood, that failing a SUBJ
stantal increase I'm the present strike
benefit fund the lodges may suffer expul-
sion from the national body
While the visit OF Mr. Tighe aroused a
considerable interest among the steel
workers, the sentiment generally was that
his journey was useless, save perhaps to
secure an increase in the amount contrib
uted TO the eastern strikers. Many assert
ed they would not attend the meeting

While the sky was cloudy, the air was
fairly clear, and at o'clock the sun be-

clouds and giving every indication of
fine day. The wind also breezed up from
the southeast about this time and at $50,
there was enough TO send the yachts out

So up went the big malnsails, the club

home price Is excessive or that the foreign
price represents a loss which the domestic
consumers must bear. This opinion will be
shared by many who are not hostile to high
tariff for politics only. To keep mills run
ing and to work off surplus manufacturers
sell slightly lower in foreign markets than
at home is the rule of all countries, even
Great Britain. but the margin IS not so
wide as stated IN this case. Such a dis
elimination is also against domestic indus
try, since wire rods are the raw material
for the finished products of wire. This
would not make a difference with the
American Steel and Wire Company, which
is a part of the United States Steel Corpo-
ration. but independent makers of wire
products could not compete i'm the foreign
market with the discrimination of SO per
ton which the steel company is alleged to
give foreign cor petitors. This seems a
method of defeating the purpose of protec-
ton by some of it's beneiciaries which can
not be regarded with Indifference.
