NO SETTLEMENT
ARRIVED AT YET
Conference of Steel Workers
and Employers Still On,
MAY BE DECISION TO-DAY
BOTH SIDES ARE DOING EVERY
THING TO AVERT STRIFE

Pittsburg, July 12.-The second day
of the conference between the Anal
gamated Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers and the steel manufac-
lures came to a close tonight with
out an agreement having been
reached Another session viii be held
tomorrow. and from Indications late to-
night a settlement Of a, general strike
viii be decided upon. When the confer
ence adjourned, all of the cOnferees
were appealed to for information as to
the status Of affairs. but nothing def
mite could be learned. Late tonight,
however, President Shaffer of the
AElalgamated association consented TO
be quoted in the following statement:
Nothing actually was accomplished
today. No proposition was submitted
by either SIDE TO the controversy No
time limit has been set on the confer
ence, but it must come to an end. To-
morrow must settle it one way or an
other II no agreement IS reached, the
general strike which was set for last
Monday viii proceed. 1 am still hoping
for a settlement"
When asked If, in the event of
strike, it would involve all the plants
of the United States Steel corporation,
Mr.. Shaffer replied that every union
man IN every plant in any way con-
would be called out.
A general strike, if ordered, would
include the union workers in the Fed
eraI Steel company, the National Steel
company, the American Tin Plate com
pany, the American Sheet Steel COM
pany, the National Tube company and
the American Steel Hoop company, z 1
all union members in nOn-uniOn
or cpen mills, aggregating about 1000
men who would be affected.
Ut IS believed by conservative steel
men that a compromise Will be reached
tOmOrrCv. and a strike averted. Presi-
dent Sh after himself, while not stat
ing that he is prepared to initiate a
compromise, intimates that should one
come from the other side he would
gladly meet it half way and cOncede
anything not compromising his people.
Judge f. H. Gary, chairman of the
steel combine executive committee, was
in the city all day, practically incog-
nitO. He did not take part in the con-
ference directly, nor did he take part
in the meeting, but it is learned on
high authority tonight that he was not
far away from the meeting and was
cO6nizant of everything that trans
pired. Without making public in any
way the purpose of his visit here he
left for Chicago tonight on the Penn
sylvania limited.

TERRIFIC HEAT
BAKING KANSAS
Suffering From the Worst
Drought Since 1860.
HAVE HAD NO RAIN
FOR THREE MONTHS
All Crops Except Wheat Will
Probably be Ruined.

Kansas City, July 12.-No rain fell
today in any part Of the. drought
stricken district, consisting Of all Of
Kansas, western Missouri, Oklahoma.
and Indian Territory. over much Of
this region this was the worst day of
the long hot spell, the temperature be
ing more than 100 degrees and no
breeze stirring. Corn. oats, hay and
potatoes are so badly injured that even
with rain the yield would be short. and
as the weather bureau gives no hope
OF relief the outlook is discOuraging.
At some pieces in Kansas there has
been no rainfall whatever for nearly
three months. The present is the worst
drought since 1862 when New England
sent food TO the settlers Of Kansas.
However, the past few years have been
very prosperous ones and even now
Fhe Kansas farmers are aIVesting one
OF the largest crops OF wheat in the
history of the stSye. A great many
counties send word that with rain corn

no yield. a few say there is yet hope
for @ fair harvest.
Hay sold this morning for $50 a ton,
the highest price ever reached in this
market. Receipts We're very small and
most OF the hay which came in was
sold some time ago in the country ne-
fore the drought became so serious.
Hay is so high here that it can be
shipped In from Minnesota or Ohio or
almost any state in the country that
has a crop. Kansas and Missouri
which usually furnish as much hay as
any three eastern states and at this
time OF the year are usually shipping
trainlOads OF hay 20 other points, are
buying hay this year.
in numerous places there is no pas
turage and owners of cattle are ship

the salvation of many farmers.
For he past flve days 110,0 900 hogs
have been received at the StOCkyarGs,
breaking all records. These heavy ship
ments are due to the scarcity OF corn.

STRIKE IS STILL ON.
Machinists In Cincinnati Are Full Of
Fight

Cincinnati, July PA meeting of the
shop committeeman Of striking machin-
lists from the various concerns affected,
was held in WOrkingmen's hall to-
night. At the conclusion of the meet
ing a statement was given out emphat-
icetHy denying the report that the
strike had been called on. 1t is
learned that while il was left discre-
uOnary with the men in d number of
shops 10 return without any odium be-
ing involved as deserving the strike.
several firms were picked out on which
the fight is 10 be prosecuted.
These firms We're picked cut, it is
said, from those in the Metal Trades
association, which are known to be
most opposed to granting the demands
or the men. The men IN these shops
are pledged to remain out, and those
who return VIII support them. Should
any of these shops attempt to transfer
their work to those in which the men
return, the men have agreed to refuse
to handle it.
The various shops were visited dur
ing the day by committees Of their re-
spectlve employees, who made requests
for the terms under which they would
allow them to return TO work There
were approximately $500 machinists in
VOlved in the strike here, and of these
the strikers say about 10 per cent have
already returned. Those shODs af
fected by the decision of the union TO
continue the fight, employ about 1,10O
men.

EvERYTHTNG BURNINa UP.
Mercury Reached Maximum Average
Of 1855 in Kansas.


Topeka, Kan. July 12.-Au records
fer heat in the thirty-fOur years OBJ
servatiOns kept by Chancellor Snow Of
The University of Kansas were broken
today, the mercury reaching a maxi
mum average for the state of 1853 de-
srees. At Fort Scott the mercury reg
istered no degrees.
The heat was accompanied by a light
breeze from the south, which came as
breaths from a red hot furnace, blast
hnS and whitening vegetation OF all
kinds.
A careful Derusal o. crop reports
from all parts of the state indicate that
Kansas viii not r more than 81, 600,
eco bushels of &C his year. The crop
will thus be IL than a third OF last
years yield, 1 less than a fifth Of
1899 The late corn is all that will yield
anything, the early product being given
up more E.fan Two weeks ago. The fast
that there has been no good rain for
three months has retarded the late
corn.
Opinions and reports differ as TO the
extent OF the damage TO corn. Secre-
Jary Coburn of tte state board OF agri-
culture. admits that the crop is pTaC-
tically failure. While corn has failed,
alfalfa has given an abundant yield.
Wheat is nearly all in the stack. As
many as 1O,690 acres of wheat in the
stack have been burned during the last
two weeks. The fires start from the
slightest causes, so intensely cry IS
everything, and when they are once
started there is no water on hand with
which 20 fight them.
Trees are showing the effects Of the

dying and :. 05ping from the trees.
Kansas s. stricken with a drought

enough, the usual order of things has
beer reversed this time, and the west
