READY ON CONFERENCE
Both Sides Prepared to Settle tho
Steel Strike. -
WILL NOT REFER TO WAGES.
The One Point to he Diacussed II
whether the mills of the Two
A. Companies Will BE Tn
a.. iOnixed or Not. A.

Pittsburg, July 10.-The steel strik'
situation is quiet pending the confer
ence called to meet in this city. Every
thing Is ready for the meeting. All de
tails have been arranged, and the In
dicati0ns point to a short session anl
an amicable adjustment Of the differ
ences.
When the conference opens, 1t will
be ready for work at once. 1t is tacltly
understood by both sides that all minor
matters are to be laid aside. Even the
matter of pay will not be discussed, as
both companies have consented to pay
the rates of the new scale.
There will be but one point presented
whether all the mills Of the two com.
panies shall BE- unionized or not. For
this reason the Amalgamated people
will not enter the conference for the
purpose of adjusting wages. but as
executive officials to outline the policy
of their organization.
Who will represent the steel com.
panies at the conference has not been
learned. Officials who spoke for the
companies at the previous conferences
say they do not know whether they
will be sent TO the new conference OF
not.
New Faces VIII Be Seen.
1t Is likely that the companies will
have a number of new faces there, but
1t Is not thought that President Schwab
or any other Of the general officials
will take part.
Although the American Tin Plate
company is not direct party to the
conference one of its mills, located at
Monesscn, Pa. Is involved, an agree
ment having been made that If the
American Sheet Steel company signed
the scale for all It's mills the Tin Plate
company would do likewise. BY this
means strike was averted and the
scale signed for all the tin plate mills
but the one at Monessen.
A dispatch from Wellsville, O., says
that at a meeting of the new Amalga-
mated lodge there dozen new mem
bers were taken in, increasing the
membership to so. Three of the men
discharged from the mill were rein
stated, and it is believed that the other
nine who were let out will be taken
back.
Two more signatures to the Amalga-
mated scale have been received They
are the Standard Chain company, Co
lumbus, O., and Monongahela Iron and
Steel company, Homestead, Pa.

CuLLoM SEES 1r. TOO

Senator Cullom has been looking at
the wall while he held his seat at this
modern feast of Belshazzar. His eye
sight being little dim he did not at
first make it out but when Congress-
man Babcock, a younger man whose
political eyesight is keener, told him It
was 'Mene, meme, tekel upharsin,"
which he interpreted to mean "you must
reform that blasted tariff law and carry
out your promises regarding reciprocity
or your name will be mud, the old man
from Illinois who thinks he looks like
Abraham Lincoln, concluded that the in
depreciation of the thing on the wall
was about right. From the looks Of the
words, the Interpretation he thought a
little free, but it was pretty near what
he had figured it out for himself. The
exact meaning of the inscription accord
ing to the best authority is "You have
been weighed in the balance of public
opinion for half dollar and found to
be only thirty cents' Cullom, of
Illinois, would not be bad candidate
for something.

two or three years, necessary to build
such line than the alleged difference
between the building cost and the selling
price of the Leyland line. Again, the
Economist does not seem to notice the
value of what we in America call the
good will of business. This steamship
line is now doing profitable business
under British management.
Under American management, with
American help and American machinery
to handle freight, the expense Of the line
will be reduced 20 per cent. When is
added to these facts the further fact that
the realization of a world monopoly Of
the steel and iron trade, and not to be
used primarily as common carrier, the
difference Of a few thousand dollars more
or less will appear in it's true proper
tions.
Inc Economist also forgot that he who
would profit from the liberality of the
United States government must build ais
SHIPS in American ship yards, and not go
sneaking about the world to get them in
the cheapest market. and that the pr ne
factor in the argument of the Republican
party for ship subsidies is the protection
for our infant ship industries. No, the
Economist is off, way off, If it does
the Britishers any good to think that
they sold watered stock to J. Pierpont
Morgan, they are welcome to the COM
fort derived therefrom If he paid them
more than their steamship line was
worth, he did it knowing that he would
in a few months send them on a wild
goose chase after their iron and steel
markets. The time has passed when ship
subsidies are necessary or desirable

SOUTHERN DEVELOPMENT

1t would be interesting were the text
of the address delivered by Minister Wu
at the opening of the Southern expo
sition made public The press reports
of it are quite brief, and can hardly be
said to offer any reasonable understand
ing of it's purport
There is no section of the United States
more Immediately or more closely inter
ested in Chiresc development than the
Southern states. That fact has become
generally recognized throughout the
country, and is certain to result before
long i'll serious changes in the currents
both of trade and politics
The spirit of commercialism, Minister
WI says is a good thing 1t certainly
has been a good thing for the South
The morbid condition which prevailed
in that section until within the past
decade or two excluded the commercial
spirit largely. The upper elements of
society in the South affected to be above
trade, while the lower did not seem to
possess either the energy or Intelligence
to enable them to pursue it successfully.
Yet the South, well up to the outbreak
Of the Civil war, was commercially one
of the leading sections Of the United
States 1t refused later to engage itself
in the race for Industrial production and
1t fell by the wayside. The opportunity
W tod nd x1yIi ioI
to be availed of thirty years ago, is here
again. The South will hardly fail to
avail itself of the second occasion. It Is
a great one, and Minister WI is lust the
man by reason of his grand breadth OF
view and his splendid powers of observa-
ton to lay that opportunity clearly be-
fore the Southerr mind.
The work of developing the manufac-
ture of certain grades of cotton fabric on
the ground in the South is form of in
dustrial activity which must be of prime
value in connection with the opening up
of the Orient to Western civilization.
The task of bringing Southern products
to the markets which await them is
the next Of the great problems awaiting
solution in the South. The address de-
livered by the president of the Illinois
railroad system before the exposition,
while it had especial refe-eace to con-
ditions existing in the state of Missis-
sippi mas limited application to the
South generally. Its lesson is not to
Mississippi alone. I: the South will
rise to the greatness oa she opportunity

rose in the Woodmen political hothouse.
The Kansas delegates especially were
strong in their preference for one candi-
date, the Hon. J. G.. Johnson, delegate
from Peabody, Kan, and vice chairman
of the Democratic national committee
Mr.. Johnson, up to two years ago, was

ney. and In the convention during the

front in it's deliberations. Like Mr. Tai
bot, and Head Consul Northcott, Mr..
Johnson became officially identified with
the Woodnlen in 1890, serving continuous
ly up TO July, $780, as director and gen
eral attorney, when he was retired. The
Kansas Woodnlen state convention, held
last February, adopted but one reSolu-
ton, and that one of a nature warmly
commencing Mr.. Johnson.

refused to discuss the Endorsement of his
fellow kansans, stating he did not be-
Heve 1t proper to discuss matters Of a
personal nature and relating to his con-
nection with the Woodmen society with

nevertheless are coupling his name quite

rade like veteran Mai HaweS was a
cavalry officer during the war and has
not forgotten his old military seat.
The public announcement Of Head Con-
sui NOrthcott that he Will retire at the
close Of his present term has Occasioned
much gossip as to the candidates who
will appear before the 1893 convention.
The appearance Of the head consul and
head clerk at the head Of the WCodmen
parade yesterday was the signal for ap-
plauSe all along the line of march, as the
two we'll known leaders came into view.
Head Clerk Hawes was in receipt Of
telegram of cOngratulatiOn on his re-elec-
tion from Gen John Q. Black yesterday
afternoon. Gen. Black was Maj. Hawes'
commander during the early part OF the

YANKEE MATCHES FOR ENGLAND

YANKEE MATCHES FOR ENGLAND.
England has been invaded by the Yam.
kee match manufacturer. He is making a
vest pocket match like the wax vests
of the Britisher and which sells for just
one-half the price. He asks the people
to patronize home industries He makes
the matches from wood imported from
Canada, he employs English workmen,
and allows the corporation to be run by
English directors. But 95 per cent of the
stock is owned in America and the Brit
ish patent for making this kind Of match
is controlled by Americans. OF this the
English press complains. But it is all
ton field Of America been financed for
years by Britishers? Did not the Yankee
go to England and the continent when
ever he wanted to promote an Amerd-
can enterprise? The tables are Just be-
ginning to turn. The interest and the
profits that have been going to England
for the last forty years and Which have
kept the balance Of exchange against us
even when the balance Of trade was in
our favor. have begun to come back. It
is a long road indeed that has no turns.

AN EXPERT OPINION.

The London Economist, informs its
readers that the sale and purchase Of the
Leyland steamship line by j. Pierpont
Morgan is assuring evidence that the
United States will subsidize its shipping
at the earliest possible opportunity To
back up this remarkable statement it
calls attention to the fact that the said
steamship line was sold for much moro
than it was worth. 1t being a stock COM
pany owned by a few men the stock was
watered frequently to keep it in good
condition. For this watered stock Mr.. ].
Pierpont Morgan paid more than par,
thus giving up lump of money much
larger than would have been required to
build the line anew. This eagerness to
secure a line at a bonus, the Economist
believes. was occasioned by the prospects
Of recouping from the national treasury
through the ship subsidy bill. This is
good story. but it serves only to exhibit
the Ignorance Of the Economist In the
arst place Mr.. Morgan wanted a steam
ship line and wanted 1t at once In
America time is money, and the loss to
the community OF interests" which Mr..
Morgan represents would be more in the
