STRIKERS MAKE CONCESSION
CIVIC FEDERATION TO ACT AS MEDI-
ATOR IN SETTLING THE DISPUTE.

Pittsburg. Aug 25.-In furtherance OF the
peace" programme which is said 10 have been
in the course Of preparation for several days, II
was given out to-day by one the inside, and
one who should know. that the Amagamated's s
executive officers have consented TO have certain
propositions made to the officials OF the United
States Steel Corporation. through members OF
the conciliatory committee of the National Civic
Federation. These proposals expected 10
bring about n settlement Of the great strike
Those Interested in the matter were waiting all
day to-day for word TO proceed with the pro-
gramme outlined at the conference OF the
Amalgamated executives and the conciliatory
committee of the Civic Federation last Friday
The propositions which to be taken TO
New York carry certain concessions by the
Amaigamated officials which. it Is hoped. will
pave the way for the reopening of direct nego-
tiations between the association and the com
pany The propositions include terms under
which President Shaffer and his advisers stand
willing - settle the strike. What these terms
are and the manner OF their presentation are
carefully guarded secrets There is only the
Implication that they contain concessions OF
such importance that those interested expect
the corporation to drop its adverse attitude and
reopen negotiations.
The proposal contains nothing looking TO ar
bitratiOn. This mode Of settlement was waived
the advice OF the Civic Federation men.
While the conferrees were discussing peace
plans. to the Amalgamated men was shown the
impracticabty of sympathetic strikes by the
miners and other organized men affiliated with
the American Federation OF Labor.
The action OF President Shaffer in abrogattnp
the wage contracts with the Federal Steel Com.
pany covering its Western mills and in other
instances questioned. Messrs. Mitchell
White and jerks spoke Of the Importance of
strict observance OF wage agreements con-
tracts by the labor unions President Shaffer
maintained his position TO the satisfaction Of
most of the conferrees
1t has been reported that the conferrees disan-
Company contracts. and told President Shaffer
with unmstakable emphasis OF this, how
ever, Secretary John Williams said to-day that
during the conference he had heard no adverse
criticism by the Civic Federation conferrees on
or contracts.
