called together by President ShafPer to
consider measures in connection with
the strike, were slow in assem- bling.
Previous to the meeting President Shat

out at his discretion the employees Of the
American Sheet Steel company, and
then, as a last resort, to extend the
strike order to all the plants of the
United States steel corporation. He did
not hesitate to declare his intention of
carrying out his prerogative of calling

board. Said he:
ST could not yield the point demand

been drawn; there can be no backing
down now. We have received tele-
grams from our members in different
sections of the country indorsing the
stand we have taken and saying they
will stand by us if it comes to general
strike"
President Shaffer also wired Presi-

Federation of Labor explaining the sit

are not the creations of the civil state or

sition he occupies in the Roman Catho-

The scene was one of great brilliancy
and the ceremonies were characteristic
of that splendid magnificence for which
the Catholic church is noted. While
the absence of Mgr. Martinelli was
marked, it detracted none from the
grandeur of the scene, which was far
beyond that occasion Of Sept. II, 1898,
when Mgr. Satolli, now member of
the Sacred Congregation, Rome, con-
ferred the pallium upon the late Arch
bishop Hennessy in this same cathedral.
Cardinal Gibbons was here today, as he
was then; archbishops and bishops from
all parts of the United States were here
again, and the number of priests pres.
ent was fully double that on the other
occasion. The attendance of laymen
from abroad was very large and but few
states in the Union were unrepresented.
