Pittsburg. July s.-A conference will be held
here Thursday between the officials OF the
Amalgarnated Association Of Iron and Steel
Workers and those OF the United States Steel
Corporation President Theodore Schaffer has
telegraphed all the vice-presidents of the asso
cistion to come to Pittsburg. and the matter
will be taken out of the hands OF the conference
committee appointed to deal with the wage
question It is hinted here that Charles NJ
Schwab. president of the United States Steel
Corporation will be in attendance at the confer
ence but this is doubted. his attendance VIII
be a tacit admttance that the Carnegie inter-
ests will be allowed to come under the sway OF
the Amalgamated association.
The discharge of twelve union sheet steel
workers al the weIlsville (Ohio) plant Of the
American Sheet Steel Company has not jeopar-
dized the peace talk. as at first supposed Inls
move will not stop negotiations, although It put
the workers in an ugly humor. 1t is believed
that the American Sheet Steel Company does
not uphold the action of the manager, d. :
Brookman, and the men will be reinstated the
same as the sheet steel workers in the Mckees-
port (Penn) mill were some time ago when they
were discharged for joining the union

mated scale to-day: Standard Chain Company,

nature is expected soon as the repairs 10
the plant completed.
There was a resumption OF work in many
iron and steel mills to-day. The mills have been
idle for two weeks for repairs 1t is believed
that fully twelve thousand men returned to

 "A fair comparison of the progress made by women in the government em- ploy since the enactment of the civil service law tn 1883. as to compensation received and number employed is in the State Depa ~tment. office of the Secretary, which has probably employ ed the fewest women, of any office in the departments. In 1883 there were ten women employed, and the highest salary received was $1 400 there being l but one who was paid that amount. Ir 1889. in the same office, there were sew enteen women; the highest salary wal $1.600; there were several at $1. 400 and others at $1. 200 per anaum. while the lowest salary was 800. Of the total number of women taking competitive examinations during the past ten years over n per cent have successfully pass ed. while only 62 per cent of the males have passed these examinations.
 The per centage of women in de- partments differs. In the Postoffice ser. vice the position of postoffice clerk is the only one open to both sexes Throughout this entire branch of the service 6.52 per cent of the appoint ments for the past ten years have beer women. Besides the foregoing. of the 69. 900 postmasters in the United States under the civil service 6,2S5 are wo- men. Of the newer departments plac- ed under the civil service rule is the in ternal revenue. in which 2.09 of the ap- pointments during the four years end ing June 90. 1900. have been women, anc the custom house service of which pei cent of the appointments during ths past five years have been women. The highest per centage of appointments ol
 women in any one year was in 1898
 when 13 per cent of the total number | of appointments were women."

AMERICAN GIRL
 STUDENT IN PARIS

A woman who has lived for two years among the students of the Latin quarter and who takes a practical in- terest in their welfare says of their life of American girls students:
 ''The number of American girls here studying art and music is enormous. They are all over the Latin quarter from the Boulevard St. Michel to the Boulevard Montparnasse. Most of them live upon three or four dollars per week. Mrs. Davis and her daughter from Boston pay $70 a year as rent of their pretty fiat. True, it Is the first story one meets when coming down from heaven: nevertheless. it is not too high for even great composers like Massenet to climb.
 'The girls study hard: they like to make pilgrimages to the tomb of Marie Bashklrtseff at the cemetery at Pas sy. and the more romantic of them sometimes shed a tear over the grave of Abelard and Heloise in Pere La chaise. Pope's poem upon this unfor- tunate pair Is the piece of literature best known to our American girl stu dents.
 They frequently dine at restaurants for franc. I have seen some pretty frescoes done by some of the girls in out way restaurants. Doubtless they are potboilers.
 'The question of nude models does not bother them very much; they go to Julien's and other schools and study from the nude as a matter of course Perhaps they would not dosit in the United States, but if they study here they must follow the rules of the class; but the girls do not like to have male
 
 from the nude. for the risque remarks which Marie Bashkirtseff used to make about the models are handed down by i tradition"

WHAT CIVIL SERVICE
 HAS DONE FOR WOMEN

Now that so large a number of wo- men are employed at Washington and as postmistresses through the United States. a still larger number of women will be interested in the following on the subject of women in public service.
 It is authority as it comes from John R. Proctor. the civil service examiner, who writes it in Leslie's Weekly. MT. Proctor says:
 Tt is only in recent years that wo- men have been employed in consider able numbers in the public service, It is now generally recognized that they can successfully pegform the duties of many of the subordinate places, and they have often shown eminent fitness and high quality in their work In 1870 an act of Congress. provided that wo- men might. in the discretion of the head of any department, be appointed to any of the clerkships in the depart naent upon the same requisites and con ditions and with the same compensa- ton as prescribed for men! This mag na charta for women in the civil ser vice is recognized in the civil service laws and rules. which make no discrim- ination on account of sex.
 From July 16. 1883. to June 30, 1900, there were appointed in the classified service in the departments at Wash ington. through competitive examina- ton, 2.044 females. This number in- cluded 1.260 printers assistants in the bureau of engraving and printing, al compensation of $1.25 per diem. which is the lowest salary paid to women in the classified service. About third of all employees fin the departments oi Washington are females: they are em- ployed mostly in ordinary clerical ca pacity. although many technical posi- tions are filled by them.
