RumOred That Steel Troubles May
BE Adjusted-Gompers Con
suits Shaffer.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. s-The contending
sides in the steel strike are centering their
energies for a show of strength on the day
that the general strike order becomes ef-
fective. The United States Steel Corpora
ton is reopening mills closed by the first
strike call to show its Independence Of
unionism. and gathering strength wherever
1t may to tighten the effect of the general
strike order, and the Amalgamated Asso-
citation is bending its energies to the extern
sion Of its membership and TO obtaining the
support and cooperation of the American
Federation Of Labor.
The general strike order becomes effective
on Saturday night. and the claims put fortn
on either side as to the results that Will ac-
crue from II are widely at variance. ON
Gals of the steel companies admit that
thousands of men will obey the order of
President Shaffer and go out. but they pos
itively deny thai tine strike will be general
President Shaffer and his associates insist
that the strike order will be generally
oheyed.
still Look for Settlement.
With both sides arming for the conflict
and a general strike but forty-eight hours
away. many ordinarily well-inforned per-
sons hold the belief that there Will yet be y
settlement of the strike. Some OF the men
who Predict settlement believe this Will be
due to outside intervention from powerful
Interests. and a submission OF the dispute 10
arbitration. Different men OF national repu-
taticn, including Archbishop Ireland ana
Senators Hanna and Scott, have been named
in this connection, but if efforts are being
put forth in that direction they nave not
yet appeared upon the surface.
Conference With
President Sharfer devoted to-day to a con-
ference with President Gompers OF the
American Federation of Labor, who came
here for a personal study Of the situation
before committing himself or his immense
organization in any manner. The conference
reached no conclusion, and unless there is
an alteration of plans will be resumed at 10
o'clock tomorrow.
President Gompers declined to state the
result of their deliberations and would say
rothing other than that he had come here
to look the situation over and consult with
President Shaffer.

The steel corporation succeeded to-day In
getting the Farm mill at the Lindsay d
McCuteheon plant and another mill at the

ceived reports that at Hyde Park last night
four of the mills did perfect work and an
announcement from Wellsville that the
strike was virtually over there. They met
with no opposition at any of the four points
where they have rcopened mills and ey-
pressed their satisfaction at progress made.
