STRIKERS AND STEEL sARcNS

ing Strike-CIosSd Plants.

Pittsburg Aug. 2l.-There was a
hull yesterday in the great steel strike
and neither side took a decisive. stem
that showed upon the surface. The
contest now seems to De settlng
down into q hard aud determined
struggle. Joseph Bishop of Ohio. ar,
birator, appeared again yesterday
but both sides promptly ropudiated
the suggestion that another move for
peace was being considered. The
steel managers succeeded in starting
the last idle mill at the Clark plant and
are evidently planning series of eN.
tensions at every point where there is
a chance, They will probably start
the Star Tin mills in this city and in.
crease the force at the Lindsay and
MCCutcheon mills.
The steel managers are also ar,
ranging for more men for the Painter
and Monessen mills, but have given no
indication of the time they will move
on the strikers suongholds at Nc.
Keesport Wheeling, New Castle and
Bellairc, Neryl Preston. representing
President SChwab, was here yostel day
and confc ed with a number of lead
ing officials Of the companies feder-
ated in the steel corporation and it is
understood the general plans for the
campaign were discussed
The strikers declare they have the
situation well in hand and despite the
alleged danger of the strike getting
tophCavy continue their work of or
ganization with n view of Gripping
more plants belonging to the corpora
ton, They claim that Chicago will in
the end come out and that there is no
danger of the Joliet men going back
to work, whatever Chicago does.
They are still fighting for a foothold
in the Carnegie properties, but so far
have not shown their hand Claims
as to the advantage at the DuQuesne
mills are still highly conflicting, but
the managers declare with more as
surance than ever that the fight there
is over and that the Amalgamated as
sociatiou has given up. President
McMurty Of American Sheet Steel
company returned yesterday from n
tour through the five mill towns of the
Kiskiminetas valley. He said the pro.
duCtion was above the maximum aver.
age for this season of the year. Dis.
trict Manager Smith of the same com.
pany said the product of the Wells
Vile plant was cominb out nearly per.
feet and if the men were not interfered
with by the strikers the situation
would be cminently satisfactory. Tie
ing up Pennsylvania and Continental
Tube plants was completed yestcr
day. Counting both plants, about
| I 500 men went out and both proper
ties were shut down.
The closing Of the Pennsylvania and
Continental plants completely tied NJ
the National Tube company in this
district and Wheeling The company
made no effort to start up at any
point.
At strike headquarters a great dcaI
of attention is being devoted TO strike

of money already and demands in that
direction are growing.

The rapid strides which rural free de-
livery is making under the administra-
ton Of Postmaster General Smith are
seen in the statement that on June so
next there will be in the United States
Just 4, 800 routes and 5000 rural post
Offices. The largest appropriation ever
made for this service was that of last
congress, $3.50, 600 The amount asked
for the maintenance Of the routes and
offices mentioned above is 81, 500, 600,
with one million more for further extern
sion of the service. This. it is believed
congress will readily grant, for members
are discovering that nothing is so popu-
lar now-except with fourth class post
masters AS rural free delivery. Ii Post
master General Smiths recommendation
for reform in the much abused second
class mail privilege shall be adopted, the
department instead of 1850, 600 corld
be allowed SIC, 900, coo for free delivery
routes; and the rest of the $50, 900, 900
now thrown away could be applied to
giving the nation l cent letter postage
rate. The mere statement of these two
facts should be enough to rouse the whole
rural population in favor of the desired
reform.
