THE STEEL STRIKE.


The outlook for settlement of the
steel strike is not as hopeful as 1t was.
It was believed that a spirit of com
,romise or both sides would lead to
quick adjustment of the difficulty, since
nothing was involved but question OF
fair play and there was no dispute
about wages.
1t is alleged by the men, however,
that Mr.. Morgan wants the compro-
mise to be all on one side, that the
proposition he submitted at the last
meeting virtually maintained the
trusts original contention and that Mr.
Morgan simply agreed to the signing
of the scale on the same terms as last
year else the trust would open its
mills regardless of the Amalgamated
Association. This is alleged to be Mr..
Mergans ultimatum. Mr.. Morgan will
saw nothing. nor will any one connected
with him.
The Amalgamated Association Off
Gals agreed to compromise, it is said,
on the basis that the union would use
no coereive measures to organize the
non-union men if Mr.. Morgan would
agree not to use coercion to prevent
men from joining the union. This, OF
course, contemplated the abandonment
of the individual agreement binding
non-union men not to affiliate with the
union.
Mr.. Morgan, it is alleged. declines to
abandon this individual agreement and
this is supposed to be the lock on which
xonference went to pieces.
1t is a much befogged situation and
authoritative information seems impos-
sible to obtain.
1t appears, however, that the Anal
gamated Association officials agreed to
submit the whole question to arbitra-
ton, which Mr.. Morgan declined to do.
Then they agreed to permit non-union
men to work in union mills unmolested.
only asking the trust to withdraw its
coercive measures requiring men as a
basis of employment to sign an agree
ment not to join any labor union. This
It appears. suited Mr. Morgan no better.
The Amalganated officials are now
considering whether to accept or reject
Mr.. Morgan's ultimatum.
Mr.. Morgan says in the event of no
agreement that the idle mills will be
started UP with any kind of labor they
can get. President snaffer says the
strike. if not settled now. will be ex-
tended to all the United States Steel
Corporation mills while he Federation
Of Labor in the same contingency, has
decided to call out all the men at the
Valley furnaces.
If there is no settlement the great
strike from now on promises to assume
bitter phase on both sides, the ten
dency of which will be to draw the line
more sharply between capital and
labor.
It is an unpromising outlook.

1t is an unpromising outlook.

The Southern potato crop is said to
be failure outside of Maryland and a
benevolent Chicagoan has started to
corner the market. Five dollars d
bushel is talked of. This is sad news
just as We are rejoicing over the break
in the western drouth. Still in estimat-
ing the failure of the Southern potato
crop outside Of Maryland, West Vtr-
ginia was evidently left out of the cal
culation. The Mountain States potato
crop isn't failure by any means.

plain, old-fashoned stealing was GO

ones seemed task greater than any
one man could successfully perform,
SO the Stock Association above
named, took the matter in hand, and

Denver, Colo, Sept. %, 1901.
Extensive preparations are being
made by the officers of the National
Live Stock Association for their
Fifth Annual Convention, which will
convene in Studebaker's Theater, Chi
cago, on December 3rd.
The committees appointed some
time ago by President Springer to
make preliminary drafts of bills, are
actively at work. These bills will
provide as follows:
One for an act for the establish
ment of n general system of federal
inspection on interstate shipments of
live stock, 10 take the place OF state
inspection and levying of fees at ev-
cry state line crossed, and which in
no way shall interfere with local af-
fairs of state boards.
For an act providing for govern
ment inspection of woolen goods.
Manufacturers are using 35,0OO,OO0
pounds Of sho6dy annually which
they sell as'"pure wool" This is a
deception which is most injurious to
the sheep industry as well as the con-
sumers, and stockmen see no reason
why such goods should not be prop
erly inspected and stamped just as
oieomargerine manufacturers are
compelled to do with their product.
For an act allowing settlers in the
arid and sem-arid districts the right
to exchange lands OF equal value
with the government, so as to solidi-
fy their holdings.
For an act providing for = Second
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture,
who shall be required to give his
sole attention to the live stock indus
try.

classified assessment Of live stock.
In addition to these, such other
