TO DEFEAT THE UNION
A New Move Made by the
Steel Men.
Skilled Workmen Asked to Sign Contracts Re
pudiating The Union on Penalty of
Being Discharged
(By Associated Press.)

Pittsburg, Pa, July 26.-The National
Tube Works Company at McKeesport had
made an unexpected move intended to
checkmate the Amalgamated Association
Their skilled workmen have been asked
to sign individual contracts to practical
ly repudiate any labor union, and they
have been given but short time to thi-k
the mater over 1t is understood that
should they not sign the contracts they
will find their positions vacant and the
axe is expected to fall tomorrow.
1t tanspired today that late on Thurs
Gay evening the 600 welders of the mills
wewre paid off and then taken into the
office of the general superintendent where
they were presented with Individual con-
tracts to be signed for at least year
Some demurred while others signed the
contracts.
This movement, fighting fire with fire.
carried CONSERVATION into the ranks of
the strikers. The welders are hiSlly
skilled workmen and with their co-opera-
tion the big plant might be closed down.
With them in line the plant probably
will keep on running as though nothing
had happened.
1t was intimated tonight by friends of
the weders that they would all sign the
contracts.

The three-quarter pole was reached in
1:31A and as the great stallion trotted
into the stretch a runner on either side,
his frictionless, machine-like stride was
fairly eating up the distance.
Never once faltering, notwithstanding
the terrific clip, he fairly flew to the
wire, being sustained only by his in
domitable courage and almost human in
telligence, not being touched once by the
whip, his sole urging being the driver S
voice and the laundering hoof beats of the
accompanying runners.
AS the time for the mile was an
nounced-2:02& and the immense crowd
REALIZED that new worlds record had
been established, Ketcham and his fa-
vorite stallion were rendered an ovation
such as has been seldom witnessed on a
race track. Thousands of enthusiastic
people rushed out on the track and Ket-
cham was lifted from the suky and car
ried to the grandstand on the shoulders
of his admirers
Cresceus, not only holds the world S
trot ting record for both sexes, but last
week at the Detroit Grand Circuit mee>-
ing by trottng in 2:06A and 2:05 in his
race against Charley Herr, secured the
worlds record for the two fastest heats
ever trotted in a race, his second mile
in EOS also being a new worlds record
for the fastest mile ever trotted.

THE FASTEST MILE EVER TROTTED
On the GIenve Track at Cleveland Cresceus ECIipses
the Performance of The Abbott and Establishes
New Worlds Record.
(By the Associated Press.)

Cleveland, July 26.-Amid the enthu-
siastic cheers of nearly ten thousand peo-
pie. Cresceus, the worlds champion trot-
ting stallion, again demonstrated that he
is the peer of all trotters by trotting a
mile this afternoon over the Glenvile
track in 2.0234 This establishes new
worlds trotting race record for both
sexes, eclipsing the former record of
2:O3A held by The Abott.
The circumstances connected with this
remarkable performance were anything
but conducive 20 fast time, as owing to
the heavy rains of last night the track
was not in the best or condition. After
having been given several preliminary
miles, George Ketcham came out with
the stallion to attempt what seemed an
impossible feat. Ketcham nodded for the
word on the third score. the horse trotting
like a machine.
Accompanied by a runner the chestnut
stallion fairly flew to the quarter. the
timers watches registering just thirty
seconds
As Crescues swung into the back
stretch he was joined by a second runner
and although many predicted that the
footing was such as would retard his
speed he reached the half in 1:01. As
the time was hung out the immense
crowd broke out in cheers as it was evil
dent that the mile sNonld be fast one.

THE STRIKE SITUATION.
Master Mechanic Stump Here to Put the Men
to Work Again.

Master Mechanic Stump arrived here
yesterday afternoon and will today take
up the matter of giving the strikers en-
ployment.
AS the men understand it, they will
al be given work, though only six, they
say are to be employed in the shops here.
Up to yesterday afternoon, only four of
these six had been selected. They are:
Harvey Keogh, Harry Cole, George Mar
Tin and Worth Hanks. Two others are
yet to be selected.
John Horton has been given a place in
the shops at Portsmouth and will leave
for that place Sunday night
Though the men think they are all to
be given enjoyment and no discrimina-
ton made. Vice President Barr seems
to put a different construction on this
agreement. He on Thursday gave out
at Portsmouth the following statement:
THE strike has been settled, and the
men will return to work as they are
needed, on the old conditions. They are
making applications for e-instatement,
individually We have treated with our
own men only. Those of them who have
not been guilty of overt acts will be
taken back as the needs of the road de-

employ of the road so long as their SER
vices are satisfactory, and they desire

PAY PATIENTS MUST GO
And no More Inebriates Will be Ad-
mitted to the Institution.
THE DIRECTORS WILL TAKE THIS ACTION
Such Policy Followed at All the Stale Asy-
Iums Would i've Ample Room For The
Accommodation Of INDECENT
Insane Of the State.

Governor AycocE has taken up the in
sane asylum problem, and yesterday he
announced that he thought the congested
condition of the institution in this city
would be relieved within he next month.
and that all acute cases of insanity in
this district will then be cared for and
treated as they deserve to be.
In his effort to bring this about the
Governor has had the cooperation of Su-
perintendent Mckee and his board-all of
them patriotic men, anxious to so con-
duct the institution as to be the greatest
possible benefit to the people of the State.
1t is understood that the board Will
make room for the INDECENT INSANE.
which the State constitution says SHALL
BE CARED FOR AT THE CHARGE or
THE STATE, by notifying pay patients
that they must seek accommodations else
where, and by declining in future to re-
caive inebriates at all. Likewise, if it
becomes necessary idiots will be excluded
Though the constitution says that 'it
shall be the duty of the Legislature, as
soon as practicable to devise means for
the education of idiots and inebriates, =
but evidently it was never the intention
OF the trainers OF that instrument. or OF
the founders of the asylum, that they
should be cared for, to the exclusion
of those for whom the institution was es-
pecially intended.
If now, the Governor will secure like
policy in the management of the Morgan
ton asylum, the congestion of that insti-
tuition can likewise be relieved and the
insane in the western district be cared for
there, instead of being confined in the
jails and poor houses as many Of them
now are.
