STRIKE
CAUSES
BIG LOSS.
$4,000 is tho Daily Cost
TO Parties Engaged In tho
Great Steel Struggle.

Pittsburg, Pa. July 17.--According 10
figures compiled by the Pittsburg Dis
patch the steel strike is daily costing the
three companies involved $4,000 and the
workmen sl56.000. IL is estimated that in
the daily loss OF nearly 1900 boxes OF tin
plate day the American Tin Plate COM
pany is daily losing over $4,000 while the
loss 10 the canning companies unable 10
secure their material is enormous in ad-
dition.
Practically no stocks have been carried
and the consumption has kept pace with
the production for some little time past.
About 700 tons of the one thousand TOMS
daily production of the American Sheet
Steel company is being lost. and this rep
resents loss each day to the combine
of at least $4,000
The loss to the gas stove manufacturers
Is also great, as the mills are closed
which make a speciality Of stove iron.
This is the heavy season for making
stoves. About 1000 or $500 tons of steel
hoops. bands and cotton ties are being
lost daily by the American Steel Hoop
company by reason of the strike, ami
this represents daily loss in money OF
S70.00 1t is estimated that the men are
losing in wages Sl5O,0O0. The tin work
ers will lose $1,000 daily in addition.
In addition TO all OF these losses the
many and varied industries crippled now
and In prospect represent losses 10 the
men of large sums that cannot be COM
puted now. The Amalgamated men are
said to have a fund of over '$200.000 with
which 20 keep the strike going and the
Amalgamated men employed i'm the va
rious mills still operating Will go great
way toward maintaining the strike fund.
TO AID THE STRIKERS.
Youngstown. o.. July 1.-THE Anal
gamated workers in the YOUNGSTOWN
mills OF the Republic Iron and Steel COM
pany have met and decided TO each donate
one days pay every two weeks TO the
strikers fund. About 500 members agreed
TO this. which will net about $4,000 per
month. The workers are also rapidly Sc
curing jobs I'm their mills for the striking
steel hoop men.
STRIKE MAY SPREAD.
Chicago. July 17--No settlement has
been reached between the Chicago ana
Milwaukee Brewers association and the
Stationary Firemen's union, and the
trouble threatens TO spread to other Ia
boring organizations within a few days.
A conference was held last night be-
tween officials of the unions OF the Brew
ers and Masters. the stationary hremens
engineers and beer wagon drivers. ana
while most all Of these unions have agree
ments with the Brewers association, the
officers admitted that they meant 70 give
practical assistance TO the rremen IN
their fight for recognition. At the head
quarters of the Brewers association IL
was announced that trouble was insight
ficant, and that only few orewer1es
were temporarily inconvenienced..
President Joseph Morton or the Brotner-
hood of Stationary Firenen said tnat IL
the trouble was not adjusted by Friday
he might call on the other unions Tor as
sistance, but that the firemen would %
able to win single handed.

The Tremont's injury Is due to a colli-
sion In the Sound at midnight with the
steam yacht Wild Duck, chartered by
Senator Nelson w. Aldrich from Gen.
Francis w. Greene of New York. who is
now In Europe. Capt. Wilcox of the Tre-
mont says the night was perfectly clear
and the steamer was proceeding on her
usual course when about IL miles west OF
Cornfeld light, a schooner rigged steam
yacht was made out on the port bow. The
officers OF the fremont supposed the
yacht would pass astern of their vessel,
as her course seemed TO be on a line dag
onal to that of the fremont.
MADE NO ANSWER.
No danger was thought OF until the
yacht had approached TO within quar-
ter OF a mile when she was hailed from
the fremont and no answer was received.
When too late the fremont attempted to
change her course to avoid the impend-
ing collision.
The sharp prov of the yacht struck her
about thirty feet back of the port bow
and sheered diagonally across coming out
on the -stsfbeard side
The force of the impact was sufficient
to throw passengers from their hunks
and caused the greatest excitement
among them for time. but the officers
of the fremont with admirable coolness
maintained discipline and aid was quick
ly at hand.
The steamer City of Worcester and the
City OF Lowell were both nearby and
promptly went TO the assistance OF the
fremont AS soon as the extent OF the
Tremonts injury was known the City
Of Lowell ran alongside and the transfer
OF passengers from the disabled boat was
quickly effected
The City OF Lowell was bound TO New
York and resumed her trip as soon as
IL was seen that the fremont had all the
assistance necessary. The crew OF the
fremont remained on board their vessel
and accepted an offer OF tow made by
the New Hampshire, one OF the New
York, New Haven a. Hartford steamers.
YACHT ALSO DAMAGED.
In tow OF that steamer, the fremont
reached New London this morning Inn
mediately after the accident the steam
Yacht backed away from the fremont
and left going into New London harbor
this morning From shore IL appeared
that she had sustained considerable in
Jury to her stem.
Capt. Wilcox insists tnat Il was a fair
iy clear night and that II proper lookout
had been kept on the yacht the collision
would not have occurred.
CARGO TO BE REMOVED.
The cargo OF the fremont will he re-
moved this afternoon. She now lies on
the fats near the dock OF Capt. I. A.
Scott who has charge Of the work OF TAX
ing at the cargo. steam pump was
put at work this forenoon and the water
which completely filled tho hold OF the
steamer was taken out rapidly
After she is lightened Of her cargo the
bow will be patched and she will be taken
elsewhere Tor repairs.

Capt. Rowland OF the steamer Massa-
chusetts, which arrived here this morn
ing stated TO a News reporter that he
was the first to sight the fremont after
the collision. He gave the alarm and In
less than 10 minutes there was a small
fleet OF Cound steamers with boats low
cred. and ready for any emergency. When
the Massachusetts, reached the fremont,
Captain Rowland saw that the male
passengers were pushing women and
children aside 10 save themselves and
when a man from the fremont made an
attempt TO jump upon the Massachu-
setts, he was told he would be knocked
overheard IL he did so until the women
and children were cared for.
1t did not take long to transfer rs OF
the passengers from the fremont to the
Massachusetts, and by this time the City
of Lowell was alongside OF the disabled
steamer and as she was bound for New
York the greater portion OF the passen-
gers were transferred to that boat.
The following steamers were near the
fremont ready 10 give assistance: Mas
sachusetts, City of Lowell. Connecticut,
City OF Worcester, Maine. New Hamp-
shire and Plymouth. The Priscilla had
just got out OF the sound OF the steam
ers whistle and Penobscot OF the Joy
line. and ID. M. Whiting were close by,
but did not go to the fremont A tug
with a tow OF barses was on hand also
TO render assistance and how the little
craft with It's tow got out of the mlxup
without mishap was a surprise TO all
of the captains and crews.
ACTED LIKE DEMONS.
A number of passengers OF the Tre-
mont were seen by News representative
and the women say the male passengers
acted more like demons than humsn be-
ings. Capt Wilcox did all he could to
maintain order, but he did not succeed

HUMIDITY
CAUSES
SUFFERING
Heat Not So Severe Today as
Yesterday, but People Swell
tered Nevertheless.

The mercury has not ranged so high
today as 1t did yesterday. but there has
been more humidity in the air.
Where there is an excess humidity
there is a paucity of humidity and II
people do now and then break out into
expletives the recording angel will doubt
less give them absolution. for the provo
cation has been very great
How can a man with aching corns and
tight boots. for instance. be held account
able for anything he says or does on a
day like yesterday and this one?
How can man whose undershirt sticks
to his back like adhesive fiy-paper be ex-
pected to look pleasant and deal In airy
persifage?
Yesterdays and today's weather record
is one that must have brought Joy 10 the
ice dealers, the ice cream men and the
purveyors of soft drinks Here IL is by

The humidity Of yesterday was So. To-
day IL is rs. Thus IL will be seen that
while the mercury does not register so
high today, as IL did yesterday, the heat,
because of the greater percentage Of
moisture In the air, is felt more keenly
and is Of the kind productive OF bowel
troubles. Therefore everybody should
be cautious as regards diet and abstemi-

While alcoholic stimulants are 10 be
avoided. recourse should not be had TO
the soda-water tanks as though one had

from the mixed soft" drinks as from
an occasional beer or whisky.
The first case OF prostration today was
that of Patrick Merrick. 50 years OF age,

He was overcome with heat opposite No.
