PROPOSITION REJECTED.
AmaIeamated Association Does Not
Favor a Three.Year Contract.

Pittsburg, Nov. S0.-The various
sub-lodges of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation have voted on the proposition
to make the scale now running to ex-
tend over a period of three years and
have almost unanimously rejected the
proposition. The scale will therefore
expire June 80, 1902, as usual. The
American Tin Plate company has been
officially notified of the result of the
vote. The men are understood to be
satisfied with the terms of the scale,
but the three-year proposition would
carry with it the continuance of the
present classification of mills as union
and non-union and they think it will
be a benefit to them to have the sub
ject reopened next summer.
At a joint meeting of the former
workmen at the Star and Monongahela
tin plate plants in this city it was de-
cided by vote of 1877 to not to go
back to work az the plants where the
Monessen system is in operation. 1t
is alleged that most of the men vot
ing have secured other employment
and that there are only 20 of the Mo-
nongahela and 35 of the Star men out

Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. 30.-According
to a letter dated Dubnitza, Nov. %.
Miss Stone and Nine. Tsilka are still
alive. The letter further says that at
a recent meeting of the committee
held in Dubnitza it was definitely de-
cided not to kill the prisoners upon
any preteXt whatever. Nevertheless,
the committee insisted upon the pay
ment of the full amount of the ransom.
A naive suggestion is current in
political circles here to the effect that
the United States should force Tur-
key to pay the balance of the ransom,
and as soon as the prisoners are in
safety force Bulgaria to punish those
persons guilty of their abduction.
