PITTSBURG, Pa, July 24-The status of
the strike this morning remains unchanged
except for the rumors OF intended injunction
proceedings and OF efforts being made by
disinterested parties to bring the leaders
of the two contending forces together with
view of bringing the conflict to d termi-
nation by compromise OF some sort.
Neryl Preston, former president OF the
American Steel Hoop Company, and John
Warner of the Carnegie Steel Company are
in the city and their visit seems to have
given rise to the supposition that they have
come here to discuss this question with
officials Of the Amalgamated Association.
Reports were in circulation that a con-
ference was held last night, as President
Shaffer and Secretary Williams OF the
Amalgamated Association were seen on the
streets down town at an early hour this
morning.

When seen today both vigorously denied
that there had been a conference of any
kind. Preston and Warner could not be
located. So far nothing has been done In
the matter of the proposed Injunction pro-
ceedngs against the strikers put il is un-
derstood that the papers are being pre-
pared and the attorneys will offer them In
the federal courts within a day or two.
At the local headquarters Of the Amalga-
mated Assoc iation the officials appear 10 be
still pursuing the policy of watching and
waiting. When asked VIXEN they were go
ing to call out all the Ainalgamated men in
the different mills Of the corporation, II
was said that the time had not yet come
for that.
Matters remain quiet about the Devices
Wood plant at Mckeesport. The mill prop
erty was encircled by strikers all night
guarding against the Introduction of nom
union men, but the pickets were withdrawn
today, the strikers believing that no i'm
mediate attempt will be made to operate
the works.
Watching for Non-Union Men.
They are still on the alert, however, and
say they Will not be caught mapping. Two
non-union men succeeded in eluding the

SKELETONS UNEARTHED
BY Washout at the Old Town Farm
Burial Place.

| BY a Washout at the Old Town Farm
I Burial Place.
! The great downpour of rain yesterday
morning took the frost out Of the
ground on Park avenue at its junction
with Edgewood avenue, and the vast
amount of water which flowed from the
surface OF the tract of land south of
! Hamilton park cut across Park avenue
and tore up the earth, washing the sand
and stones down the grade of Edgewcod
avenue to the river.
Mingled with the dirt were the skele-
tons of possibly dozen different per-
sons. About / p. m. six Italians en-
ployed by the railroad company, by re-
quest of the superintendent of Edge
wood park, dug a large hole by the
roadside, gathered up all the large bones
and skulls and buried them, The bones
will be removed later to be permanently
buried at some place where they will
not be disturbed by future public i'm
provements.
Park avenue was cut through Hamil-
ton park and across the small portion
of the town farm it is supposed that
the avenue crossed, burial place which
was used many years ago by the town
authorities as the last resting place of
the poor of the town.
