STEEL TRUST MAKES GAINS.
Two Mills viii Run Day and Might
Erom Now On.

Pittsburv. Aug. 80. - The steel cor
poration continued making gains In
this district and yesterday added
enough men To its force at the Star
plant to insure the working OF two
mills double turn from now on. The
management. claims that the entire
plant win be on fun before the week
ends. The strikers say this claim can
not be made good and is being mace
merely as blum. In pursuance 10 i.s
announced plan to run all OF It's plants
absolutely non-union the American I'm
Plate company yesterday commenced
advertising for non-union men TO go
to work. All applicants are onered the
highest wages and permaneIt JOBS,
but In every case the application must
be made personally and the applicant
declare himself free from all union
control. The latest official announce
ment from the steel corporation Is tnat
the strike can only be settled by tn"
men going back TO work. The steel or
ficials say the strike is over SO far as
dealings with the Amalgamated associ-
alton is concerned. They want men
for their idle mills and men who want
work can have 1t at the highest wages
paid before the shutdown. Whether
they have men or not the union can
have no say as to rate of wages. Not
withstanding the definite statement by
the steel corporation as TO settlement
another arbitration scheme was
launched yesterday by President Burns
of the Window Glass Workers associa-
ton. Mr.. Burns proposes an arbitra-
ton commission selected from among
such men as Archbishop Ireland, Blsn-
OPP Potter. Seth Low and others OF IKE
bulk, who would have the entire mat
ter presented to them by both sides 10
the controversy and should have pow
er to settle upon terms for settle
mert, their decision TO be final. MI.
Burns says he has President Shaners
sanction to the movement. and II the
steel corporation people will agree 10
the plan the strike will be off at once.

WANT MORE FOREST RESERVES.
Congress Is Asked to Act ON the
Question.

question.
Lenver, Aug. 31.-The following resolu-
lions were adopted to-day by the Amer
lean Forestry association,
Resolved. That we urge upon the con-
gress OF the United States and the federal
authorities the Importance of setting
aside as forest reserves all considerable
bodies of public land whose character is
such that they are more valuable for for
ests than for agriculture or other indus
trial purposes; and further that steps be
taken TO afforest the vacant or public
lands of the prairie states.
Resolved, That If the results of the in
vestigations ordered by the congress OF
the United States demonstrates that 1t is
advisable to set aside and devote to forest
reservation purposes any or all Of the
lands in the Leech lake Indian reserva-
tion the Winnebago, the Mississippi In
dian reservation. the Chippewa Indian
reservation. and the Cass Lake Indian
reservation. known as pine lands nd
such other lands II any as are unfit for
agriculture. and are not required foS In
dian allotments. then and in that event
we most respectfully petition the congress
of the United States to take such action
as may benecesary to accomplish such
results.
