impossible to Keep a Record OF the
Prostratfons In Latter Place.
New York, July 3.-The heat. which
has worked such havoc in this city
since last Sunday, was somewhat nit
igated during the afternoon by a sue
cession Of thunder storms, which
cleared the atmosphere and sent the
mercury tumbling down 10 degrees.
Never did downpour of rain receive
such an enthusiastic reception as did
this one. The thunder and lightning
were heavy and many houses were
struck, causing fires. but so far as
known no person was killed or In
jured. During the last of the down
pour hail fell in quantities.
The morning opened with the tenn
perature at 83 at a. m. In an hour
It had gone to 81 and in another hour
had climbed a point higher, jumping
all the way to SO by o'clock. The
humidity at 50 per cent aggravated
conditions.
The mercury registered IS at 10
o'clock, reached SO in the hour be-
tween IL and and stayed there unit.
after o'clock, with scarcely any
breeze. The humidity, however, had
fallen to Al per cent.
The suffering caused by the heat
was unprecedented. All the ambu-
lances in the city as we'll as the patrol
wagons and other vehicles were kept
busy answering calls. At the rate of
about one minute the calls came in
over the police wires throughout the
day, breaking all records Of demands
upon the ambulance service.
While the official temperature up In
the lofty tower Of the weather bureau
remained at SO the thermometers on
the street level ranged all the way
from 100 to 10S.
The terrible fatality of the heat was
shown in the large percentage of
deaths among those prostrated. Out
Of 375 cases of prostration reported
225 resulted fatally.
Among the more prominent victims
were Rev. DR.. Newland Maynard, the
Episcopal clergyman and lecturer, and
Jacob S. Rogers. the former locomo-
tive builder.

New York, July 2.-The following
statement in regard to the labor trou-
bles was given to the Associated
Press at the offices of the executive
committee of the United States Steel
corporation:
"The United States Steel corpora
tion is simply stockholding company
and does not in any respect direct the
management of any company in whose
stock the former is interested. In
formation has been received from the
officers Of the American Steel Hoop
company and the American Sheet
Steel company, respectively, that the
questions which have been discussed
by them and representatives of the
Amalgamated Association grow out Of
the request by the latter to extend
union labor into mills in which union
labor has not heretofore existed; that
the officers Of the two companies
above mentioned have expressed a
willingness to sign the Amalgamated
Association scale for mills in which
their unions have heretofore existed,
but not for other mills. No question
Of amount Of wages is involved"

come into such close professional and
social contact with so many great actors

an infinite sense of humor, and an un-
usual faculty for relating an incident.
The book promises something to be en-.

company and American Steel Hoop
company, constituent companies Of
the United States Steel corporation.
on the other, found all of the union
plants idle and many workers from
open mills who are members of the
Amalgamated Association on strike.
The association officials say they are
satisfied with the situation and claim
they will be able to control between
$4,000 and 10000 workmen in the two
companies. No move was made on
the part of either side to the contro.
versy and it is doubtful If anything
decisive will be done for at least
week. Both men and manufacturers
agree that shutdown for about two
weeks is necessary whether a settle
ment is reached or not. In the mean
time the association officials will make
every preparation to be fully equipped
for prolonged struggle should it be-
come necessary.
While officials of neither side will
venture prediction much quiet talk
is being indulged in, the trend of
which leads to the belief that before
the usual summer shutdown Of the
mills has expired settlement will
have been reached and the men who
are now nominally on strike return
to work.
The Amalgamated officials do not
consider the negotiations with the
Steel Hoop company broken off, but
still pending and may be renewed at
any time. j. w. jerks, manager Of
the company, is of the same mind
and intimated that the matter might
be taken up any day and gave the in
ference that a settlement would be
arrived at.
Reports received at the general of.
fee of the Amalgamated Association
show that nearly all the Independent
mills have signed the new wage scale.
