Pittsburg, Pa, July "A definite
order for n general strike of all union
sheet steel workers was issued by Pres
ident II. j. Shaffcr, of the Anna gamated
Association of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers. There are over 10000 men
affected by this order, and every mill
operated by the American Sheet Com
plny where union men are employed
all over the country will close ndef-
intely or until such time as settle
ment of the matters in dispute has
been reached.
The officials of the American Sheet
Steel Company refuse to discuss the
troubles with the workmen.
The Amalgamated Association asked
that non-union plants now operated by
the combine be turned over to the
union and be governed by the same
rules as the union mills. The officials
of the company declined to consider
the proposition at all.
The strike order in general will take
from the non-union plants all union
men worIiin there, rs well as from the
union mills. The men explain their
| demand for the unionizng of all the
mills of the combine by stating that
last year the combine had taken advan-
tage of the situation in its having the
non-union mills operating first and
leaving unorganized mills stand idle
until the pressure of business forced
them to start.
1t was resolved by the men at the
| time that such chance should never
occur again for the company. That it
would be either all union mills or all
non-union mills TO gain this point
no change in the scale WAS asked, but
a demand for unioniaing all the mills
was made definite.

1903 DEGREES ON THE STREETS.
Fifty-one Deaths In New York; IS In
Pittsburgi In Chicago.


New York, July 3. The thormomc-
ter reached os degrees at $40 p. IN.
The record shows that in thirty years
preceding only two days in all that
period has higher temperature been
reached. These were July ., 1876, and
July 3, 1895.
From morning to midnight there
were reported fifty-sevcn deaths and
II prostrations in the boroughs of
Manhattan and the Bronx. From mid
night to o'clock at night twcnty-one
deaths and thirty-six prostrations had
been reported in Brooklyn.
There were so many ambulance calls
that the police were called out to sup
ply patrol wagons, and every ambul-
ance did double duty in responding to
calls.
Many patients were carried to the hos
pitfalls in cabs and carriages. and sever
al went to Bellevue and the Harlem
hospital in moving vans The preva-
lencc of grip among the horses of the
city also tended to initiate against ef-
fective work In many cases horses
had to be obtained from contractors to
draw patrol wagons and ambulances.
Although the weather bureau shows
that the maximum was SO, this does
not indicate the heat on the streets.
Many thermometers registered los at
$40 and all of them over 100 on the
street.
If the heat was killing on mankind,
it was worse on the horses. They
dropped right and left.
Pittsburg. -Between the hours of Z
a. IN. and midnight eighteen deaths
from heat in Pittsburg and Allegheny
were recorded and forty prostrations.
Chicago Five persons dropped dead
on the streets in Chicago from the
excessive heat and fifteen Others
were so badly overcome that they had
to be removed to hospitals. number
of the Frustrated are in serious con-
dition and may die.

LAID THE CORNER Stone.
Governor Stanley, Orator of the
Day at the Pawnee Village
WHERE PIKE PLANTED FLAG.

CORTLAND, Kans., July Son the
Fourth Kansas dedicated the site for
the monument to commemorate the
hauling down of the Spanish flag
within the boundries of the state and
the substitution of the American flag
therefor Governor W. Il. Stanley was
the orator of the occasion.
In 1SO6 Lieutenant Pike reached the
capital of the Pawnee republic in his
expedition through the newly acquired
Louisiana purchase, and seeing the
Spanish flag floating he ordered it
hauled down. He told the chiefs of
the republic that they could not have
two great fathers, and that they must
select either the sovereignty of Spain
or America. At the same time he
threw out hint that to refuse the
sovereignty of America meant a fight.
The chiefs accepted his suggestion and
raised the American flag.
The last legislature made an appro-
priation for a monument, and this was
the occasion of the official acceptance
by the state, from Mrs Elizabeth John
son, of the site of the Pawnec village.
An immense crowd listened to Cover
nor Stanley's speech of acceptance and
dedication.
The monument will be erected in
time to be unveiled on September -
next, which is the anniversary of the
raising of the flag by Lieutenant Zebu-
Ion Pike, 95 years ago.

Washington, July Sat the cabinet
meeting Postmaster General Smith ex'
planned how the revenues of the pos
tai service were being kept at Il point
far below what they otherwise would
be but for the fact that large class
of periodicals were being handled at
the rate of one cent per pound which
was a great financial loss. 1t was his
purpose to modify the regulations sc
as to compel this class of publications
to pay eight cents u pound instead OF

sNIPPY, ALIAS MICKLEs.

Snippy is a little Mexican hairless dog, a privileged member of Comp troller Coler's household, at No 244 Hancock street. Bought as a joke for $5, Snippy has worlned his way into the confidence of the family to such an extent that it would be a difficult matter to persuade any of the members to consent to part with him. Snippy looks like rat with long legs. He is bashful little beast and shivers whenever anyone picks him up. When the comptroller brought the dog home he told his wife that he had bought a Newfoundland pup. but Snippy has not grown any since then. The comptrol- Ter frequently gets the laugh on his friends by suddenly saying: Look out for my savage bulldogp' They jump and then try to look unconcerned as Snippy comes in shivering. Snippy is not dog of high pedigree, but he has developed artistocratic tastes. MILK is not good enough for him, and he in sists upon having cream. Pancakes and maple syrup are a favorite dish. When the comptroller and his family returned from Patchogue last Sunday Snippy was so glad to see them that he shook all over for joy The comp troller calls him sMickles,'' on account of his odd expression. sMickles'' Is never quite so happy as when he Is being petted in his masters lap New

BOYS ATTRACT ATTENTION.
Quarreling on the Way Home from
 School Yesterday.

A fight that attracted considerable attention took place on South Main street yesterday afternoon among crowd of boys going home from school. It was shameful sight anu many wished that an officer might come along and arrest pugnacious looking young rascal who persisted i'll pummeling q little fellow until a man came out of store and drove him away. Of course children have quar- reled on the way home from school since such institutions came into ex- istence, but even so the business should be discouraged as much as possible, and 1t looks as if the stout arm of the law will have to step in and teach some of these youthful pugilists les son It is not pleasant for q woman to have her boy return from school with his clothes torn and his face scratched as a result of an assault by some older schoolmate. Boys shoul,l De made to feel that they are subject to the law the same as older people, and that q youngster who assaults an- other can be taken into court and lined just the same as if he were full grown and an all around rowdy. That boy who assaulted his schooImate yes terday should be arrested and pun ished severely. The row took place south of Jewelry street and drew quite q crowd.

PROPERTIES OF NICKEL STEEL


 The properties of nickel steel are So peculiar that Mark Twain himself might almost have invented them.
 The first and most striking thing observed by the producers of nickel iron alloys was the fact that with q ferro-nickel containing about p per cent of nickel. two of the most mag netic substances known formed an al- Toy almost as insensible to the action of a magnet as copper. Since this com bination almost completely nullifies one of the most characteristic features of both constituents it is natural to ex- pect decided notifications of other properties. A still more singular fact appears in the discovery that the mag netic properties of the constituents may be conferred upon the alloy by subjecting it to great and rapid cool ing. By the addition, however, of chromium, carbon, manganese, etc, the magnetic alloy may be rendered much more stable in this respect, so that it retains it's properties, even after chilling in liquid air, or after the most severe mechanical treatment. We
 
 very tenacious metal. susceptible of q great number of useful applications. If we increase the content of nickel we do not find more than one of the vari-- ous characteristic peculiarities at any given temperature: each alloy posses ses, on the contrary, at determinate temperature, certain definite, physical properties. Thus we have alloys which at ordinary temperatures are magnetic, but which become mag netic when cooled; but when the orig inal temperature is restored the mag netism disappears. As the content of nickel is increased the temperature at which the magnetism disappears is el- evated, and may attain or pass 400 de- grees c.
 We find further the singular fact that there exists among the alloys of iron and nickel one which has but one tenth the expansibility of platinum, and one-thirteenth or one-fourteenth the mean expansibility of iron or of nickel
 If nickel should ever reach the price of iron, which can hardly be hoped the nickel-steels of minimum expansi- bility would immediately assume q CO lossal importance. Since these alloys are at the same time very tenacious. relatively soft and easily worked, and so little oXidizable that they may re- main immersed ill water for weeks without showing anything but minute specks of rust it is evident that they possess all the advantages of ordinary steel for structural purposes, together with other most desirable properties. The industrial characteristic of these alloys is found in their remarkable tenacity. and in the possibility of sub jecting them without injury, to defor- nations under which other steels would certainly show ruptures. When to this is added the fact that they can in no sense be termed soft, having an elastic limit fairly high; that they pre- sent no especial difficulties i'll forgings; :; that, although hard, they are readily worked in the lathe or blaming ma chine, one can form some idea of their industrial future.-C.
