BATTLE OF GIANTS
The Strike Order to Take Effect
Next Saturday
HELP IN tn HOUR OF NEED
mated Men in tine United States
Steel company's Employ Not Now
on Strike,

Pittsburg, Pa. Aug. THE die is
cast. The battle of tie giants is on
in earnest, whether to ignominious de-
feat of one side or the other, or com
promise, remains TO be seen. Up TO
last evening it had been merely a
skirmish, each side trying to find the
vulnerable spot in the others armor.
Now it is different, brought about by
the actual issuance by President Shat
fer of the long-talked of general strike
order. This order was promulgated
last evening to take effect after the
last turn of the mills on Aug. 10. What
the result will be no man can tell, but
judging by the expressed determine
ton of both parties to the controversy,
the battle will be waged fast and furi-
ously. Much money will be lost, thou
sands upon thousands of men will be
idle, great suffering is looked for, even
bloodshed and death are possible and
feared
The strike call includes practically
all Amalgamated men in the United
States steel corporations employ not
now on strike. 1t was issued from the
Amalgamated association headquar
tiers and mailed to all Amalgamated
lodge officials who are expected TO call
their men into the strike. The text OF
the call follows:
Brethren: The officials of the Unit
ed States steel trust have refused to
recognize as union men thosewho are
now striving for the right to organize.
The executive board has authorized
me to Issue a call upon all Amalga-
mated and other union men in name
and heart to join in the movement TO
fight for labor's rights.
1--WE must fight or give up forever
our personal liberties. You will be
told that you have signed contracts,
but you never agreed to surrender
those contracts TO the United States
steel corporation It's officers think
you were sold TO them, just as the
mills were, contracts and all.
Remember, before you agreed TO
any contract you took an obligation TO
the Amalgamated association. 1t now
calls you to help in this hour of need.
UNLESS the trouble is settled on or
before Saturday, Aug. 10, 1901, the
mills will close when the last turn is
made on that day
Brethren, this is the call to pre-
serve our organization We trust you
and need you. Come and hep us and
may right come to a just cause
"Fraternally yours,
"T. j. SHAFFER."
