STORM BREWING Al M'KEES-
PORT THAT MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS TROUBLE.
IDLE MEN sONGREGATE AT THE
MILLS AND KEEP OUT NON
UNION MEN.
PLANTS GU.RDED BOTH BY
POLICE AND PICKETS OF
OLD EMPLOYEES.
(By Associated Press.)

~ TTSBCRG, SEPT. 9.-The strike sit
- alton in McKeesport reached an
acute stage this morning, and SER
ious trouble was feared as result of the
efforts of the striking tube workers to
prevent nom union men from returning
to work, as they did Saturday.
The effort was almost perfectly sue
cessful and where last week from 500 TO
1000 men went back into the mill not
more than dozen were able this morn
Ing to pass multitude of pickets and get
back into the mill.
There was great excitement in McKees-
pOrt this morning { S result of this turn
ing out Of the strikers, more than at any
time yet.
Remain Until Morning.
Something over 1000 strikers congre-
gated about the great plant of the Ma
tional Tube company shortly after mid
night and remained through until this
morning, when the employees who went
to work last week reported for duty at Z
o'clock this morning.
Every approach to the mill was guard
ed most viligantly, and around the main
entrance more than 600 strikers and SYM
pathizers gathered.
These streets adjacent to the mills
We're crowded and as the men approached
to go to work they We're met and turned
back.
Almost all of the force who returned
last week reported for duty again and
there were many more who were willing
to go back, but these We're met by the
pickets as they advanced near the mill
and forced to return home.
Not over dozen escaped the vigilance
Of the pickets and succeeded in getting
into the mill
No Arrests Made.
About fifty police were on duty about
the mills, but no arrests We're made. AS

result of the disturbances this morn
pletely tied up.
Just what the National Tube company
will do now is a matter of conjecture. 1t
is believed by many that an attempt will
be made to start the mill with imported
men and that an appeal will be made to
Sheriff Mckinley for protection.
At the meetings of Federation of Labor
in McKeesport yesterday, the question OF
returning to work in the Tube mill was
voted on.
The butt welders voted to return, but
were prevented, from doing so this morn
ing, by the strikers who gathered about
the mill.
The employees of the rolling mill of the
National Tube company voted to man
not to return.
At Demmler crowd of fully 800 strik-
ers gathered about the plant and while
they were orderly, they refused to obey
the orders of the fifty deputy sheriffs on
guard.
Fewer workmen resortel from Mchees-
port than last week, though more men
came by boat from Duquesne.
Excitement Is Increasing.
AS the morning advaneee the ex-
citement in McKeesport increased ana
by noon the streets We're crowded.
A large crowd assemblies. around the
railway station ard carefully watched
aA trains for imported men.
Strikers il skiffs als3 parolled tae

tense since the strike besan and the
nossibility of trouble seems TO be great.

n UFFALO, Sept 9.-President Nc
n Kinley has gone through the early
- part of crisis IN his case without
material sacrifice of strength and with
out the appearance of dangerous symr-
tones. There was an unsatisfactory note
in the morning in reference to the sleep
less night passed by the president.
Some consolation was drawn from the
statement that the sufferer had slept
fairly well, but the general feeling was
one of uneasiness, that seemed to be
shared in by all who read the bulletin.
It was known that the patient was
we'll within the crisis and the fear was
created that the restlessness was the
forerunner of some of the dire things
feared as possible results of the wounds.
Doctors Are Hopeful.
The doctors still incline to very hope
full view of the case at present, and in
s;st it does not present a single un-
satisfactory feature.
They say. however, that complications
fraMght with serious consequences may
develop, but they do not now anticipate
that any of them will appear. The pres!-
dent holds his own SO far in the crucial
hours.
The morning hours at the Milburn
house were very quiet; few of the oecu-
pants of the house were aStir early,
and. save for sentries police, newspaper
correspondents and telegraphers, the
streets We're deserted.
A few WOrkmen as they passed stopped
near the house to ask as to the condi-
ton of the president. Shortly after day
light a small crowd gathered on West
Ferry street.
The police and military have been
somewhat relaxed, but the Milburn house
is still carefully guarded and no one is
permitted to approach it without chal-
lenge and inspection.
