Pittsburg, Aug. 14.-Complete re-
turns from all the strike centers have
not been received but as far as they
go they indicate that there has besa
but slight change in conditions since
the previous day. During the night
the strikers made slight gains from
one National Tube company at Nc
Keesport. and seem to have somewhat
strengthened their position at Wheel
ing.
The Bellaire plant is closed, but q
determined attempt will be made to-
reopen it. The strikers are watching
the plant and boast they have it tied
up and are In q position to keep 1t so.
Preparations are being made here to
increase the number Of men In the
Lindsay & McCutcheon mills, which
have been operating with one non
union crew since last week and also
to start the big Painter mill which has
been idle since the FIRST order to
strike went out. The police here have
shown that they will make determin-
ed attempt to prevent violence or dis
order and the steel manufacturers con-
slider this q favorable point to break
into the strike with non-union men.
It Is apparent no attempts have been
formed for resumption at MeKeesport
or Wheeling and it is believed the
companies whose plants are either
partly or completely crippled will wait
until the excitement at those two
points have subsidized. The American
Tin Plate company Is

of its plants and the officials have felt
sure they would succeed. Mayor. E. L.
Boynton OF Niles has issued state
ment in which he says that the stor-
les OF attempts upon the lives Of Lis
bon workers were exaggerated. Man
ufacturers here express their complete
satisfaction at the progress they are
making. They say II they could get
protection for their men and property
at McKeesport and Wheeling the
strike would be quickly ended. They
deny the Amalgamated association has
gained any ground at the Carnegie

Over 10000, Men Out.

over oU,OUO> Men our.
The best estimates of the number of
men who went out on the three strike
orders place the figure at 10000.
That number is not idle now, however,
as thousands of the men have gone to
independent Mills or found work in
other places. No accurate figures on
the number now idle are possible.
The number that obeyed the final call
of President Shaffer is roughly placed
'at $4,000, but all the figures conflict
and are unreliable where mills were
only partly crippled or the men still
waver in their allegiance to their en-
ployers.
The American Tin Plate and Nation
al Tube are the heaviest losers by th~
strike and strangely enough they were
in no way concerned in the original
dispute. The strikers have made
their heaviest gains at McKeesport,
Newcastle and Wheeling, while the
manufacturers have the advantage in

New York, Aug. 14.-A fight which
'esdlted in the stabbing of two men
occurred in front of the Gilsey House
at an early hour. The police can give
very little information about the row
or what led up to it, and no arrests
were made From what could be
learned at the hotel three men, said
to be Boston politicians, and whose
names the police gave as Joseph A..
Conry, Patrick Bowen and Joseph J.
Norton. started the light. The wall
paper manufacturers convention is
being held at the Gilsey House and a
number of the delegates were stand
ing in front of the doorway when the
three men crossed Broadway to enter
the hotel. Conry, it is asserted, had
some words with some of the paper
men and in a moment a lively fight
was in progress. William F. Francis,
also said to be wall paper manufac-
turer, was attracted to the scene from
a neighboring restaurant, and went to
the assistance of his friends. Conry
received stab wound in the back
and Francis was wounded in the thigh.
The wounds of the injured men were
dressed and they say they will make
no complaint, even if the police sue
ceed in finding the man who did the
stabbing. It is said that one of the
Boston men was a congressman, an
other an alderman and the third a
state senator.

are used for fshing, the latter being
about 90 feet long. Mr.. Warren. his
fisherman and pilot, Alec Taylor, his
engineer and his valet were on board
the Cvric fishing for lake trout.
Dinner was about Ia be served when
storm came up. The curtains on the
sides of the boat were fastened down
to keep out the rain, but the wind was
so severe that it ro.ed the boat until
the water came in and the steam had
gotten so low that the boat could not
be headed into the wind After twice

rolling the boat went down by the
stern, but a water-tight compartment
in the bow held the bow out of water.
MIR. Warren and his valet in the
stern of the boat were caught in a
trap. but the valet cut the curtain and
released Mr.. Warren and held him on
the bow. The men were washed off
again and again. and were pounded
against the boat by the wind and
waves, and one of Mr.. Warren's ribs
was broken before men in small boats
put out from the shore and escued tho
entire party after they had been in
the water nearly an hour. UNDER

to let Inn go and save themselves. but
all were saved, and the boat afterward
towed ashore. | cannot yet under
stand how the Cyric was capsized, al
though / know what the wind can do
on Lake George, for I cannot compre-
hend what Alec Taylor was doing
without steam.
Mr.. Warren was about to eat his
dinner when the storm came, and he
put his waistcoat, containing valu-
able gold repeater and a pocket knife,
which he had carried nearly forty
years, on one of the seats, where
there was a quantity of fishing tackle.
Everything that went out of the boat
went down in more than one hundred
feet of water and the waistcoat and
contents went down.
Yesterday, the day after the acci-
dent, some fishermen saw some cork
fishing floats on the water near where
the yacht capsized, and they rowed
ther and secured them, and found
they were attached TO a fishing line
or lines, for there was a mass of them;
pulling them in. they found a weight
on one, and this proved to be Mr.. War
ren's waistcoat, with the watch and
the knife still in the pockets, and they
were promptly returned to him. The
cloth of the waistcoat had caught in
some hooks, to which were fastened
lines with cork floats, and thus the
watch and knife were saved. Real
fishing stories are often more extraor-
dinary than imagnery ones"
