A crowd Of three hundred persons attacked
the motorman of a Third-ave car at Forty
first-st. last night, after he had assaulted the
driver of an express wagon, and except for the
timely arrival of policemen he would probably
have been killed.
Walter Norris, of No. I'D East hundred
and forty -fifth-st.. was driving his express
wagon, when a southbound electric crashed
into his wagon smashing the axle. the springs
and the tailboard. Jumping from his wagon
Norris asked the motorman. Patrick QUINN of
No. 1066 Third-ave.. for his number but it
refused. He then jumped the platform of the
car and attempted to look at the number on
Quinn's cap.
Grabbing Norris by the neck, Quinn threw him
off the car. and seizing the controller, jumped
off after him and dealt him a blow the head
with II. Norris fell unconscious to the street.
Men and boys jumped the platform and
tried to drag Quinn from the car The crowd
suTged around the yelling. Lynch him."
The frightened motorman was finally locked
up a charge of assault. Several women pas
sengers on the car became hysteriCal when the
mob tried to drag Quinn from the platform.

NAY SOON SETTLE STEEL STRIKE.
AMALGAMATED EXECUTIVE BOARD IN SEES
SION ALL DAY-NOTHING GIVEN OUT.

AMAIGAMATED EXECUTIVE BOARD IN sEs-
SION ALL DAY-NOTHING GIVEN OUT.
Pittsburg Sept "A settlement of the steel
workers strike against the United States steel
CORPORATION was looked for to-day. 1t did not
materialize but that IT is near at hand is gen
orally conceded The report that President
Schwab had put a time limit on his proposition
to the AmaIgamated men was denied in official
circles to-day. The only thing that was not
stated in the proposition that the longer the
strikers held off from the peace negotiations
the more idle mills would be started and the
fewer union mills would be found on the list
when final steps taken TO end the struggle
Every union mill that the trust has thus far
started since the strike began is TO remain nom
union while those still idle when the agreement
is reached will be allowed to remain union and
under Amalgamated influence. All day the ex-
ecutive board Of the Amalgamated Association
remained in session. Shortly before 8 o'clock
this evening President Sharrer came out OF the
meeting and announced with much positiveness
that there would be nothing given out. The
further announcement was made that there had
been no settlement Of the strike. From the
earnestness OF the discussion Of the board II
was apparent. however. that some unusual ef-
fort was being made To rench conclusion OF
the disastrous struggle. and 1t is again conf
IDENTIFY reported that Shaner and his board will
be I'm New-York Monday morning.
In the Offices in the Carnegie Building IL was
said there was no strike situation. The officials
OF the companies interested were making every
effort possible 10 start the plants
President Shaffer said in connection with the
talk Of n settlement of the strike. that there
was general impression going abroad that the
AmaIgamated Association was beaten in this
contest This was far from true. The men in
the organization had not fairly got started In
the fight yet. and many OF them had scarcely
realized that the strike was on He said that
he did not regard the outlook any more
changed than before the meeting. He deplored
tho story that had gone out that the attempted
assassination Of President Mckinley would have
the effect of Fastening settlement OF the trouble
The foul deed OF that man is too horrible 10
be permitted enter into any discussion of this
kind We need such incentive TO settle our
difficulties"
Continuing he said: President Mckinley is a
great and a good man. / could scarcely believe
that an attempt had been made on his life when
I first heard the news; IL seems almost impossi-
BILE that such a man he is could have an
enemy among any set of men"
President Shaffer's remarks were echoed
among the mill men about Amalgamated head
quarters during the day. II more the talk
there than the settlement OF the strike. in
