MILWAUKEE, Sept. 2.-Charges
that the national officers of the ANAL
gamntcd association had misrepresented
the attitude of the United States Steel
corporation toward organized labor In or
der to get the members of the association
to strike were made by former Nice-Pres-
ident J. ID. Hickey at a meeting of the
Bay View lodge yesterday.
In cool, unimpassioned manner Mr..
Hickey gave the members Of the lodge
the result of his recent trip to Pittsburg,
whre he went to investigate the situa-
ton in regard to tho steel strike. The
situation MS summed up by Mr.. Hickey
is that it may take years to repair the
damage to the association which has al
ready been done. The strike is practi-
cally lost, he said, ~ per cent. of the
mills are working.
Mr.. Hickey made no recommendation
to the lodge as to its future action, but
it is believed that his speech may cause
4 change in sentiment, not only in Bay
View, but in other places in the fourth
district.
That his remarks will be reported in
That his remarks will be reported in

zation and that it may result in bringing

tional officers.

PRINCE CHUN INDIGNANT.
VIII Not Go Through Formula Of Apol-
Ogy Prescribed By Emperor william.

OSN Ifescilbeu by emperor "liiihHhs
BERLIN. Sept. 2.-It is now very
doubtful, according to a dispatch to the
Lokalanzieger from Bass, Switzerland.
whether Prince Chun will come TO Berlin
to make formal apology for the murder
of Baron Won Kptteler. Members Of the
expiatory mission say: Under present
conditions we can never 20 to Berlin.
We would rather die than accept them"
1t appears that they object particularly
to Prince ChunS attendants prostrating
themselves before Emperor William. in
asmuch as this is a special honor reserv-
cd fol the Emperor of China and would
involve recognition of the Kaiser's
equality.
The following information is given TO.
regarding Prince Chun's speech to the
Kaiser: Prince Chun intended to say:
"The Chinese government regrets that
Baron Won Ketteler was killed"
But the Berlin government dictated
the following form: The Chnse govern.
ment begs pardon for the murder of the
German minister, Baron Won Ketteler."
The Chinese in Basel are trying to
give the case international importance
by emphasizing the fact that one of the
digntaries selected for prostration was
made baronet by Queen Victoria while
another has the cross Of the Legion of
Honor.
