SITUATION ABOUT TIE SAME
IN GREAT STEEL STRIKE.
MILLS ARE GRADUALLY
STARTING Up.
Strikers arc Quiet and Wstchful-NO
Move YeI Made TOxYR rd Admiration.

| Pittsburg, Pa. Aug. 22-Asi1e from the
equipment of the Star plant OF the American
Tin Plate COMPANY, and the preparation for
its immediate resumption of business, there
were no special Developments In the strike
situation in this city today. No further
trouble occurred at the Pennsy lvania tube
| works, and at all other strike points quiet
reigns. The incident at the Star plant this
morningsis given as an example OF special
| significance, and to use an amagamated oifl-
| GERS expression, shows that the men have
been educated to the knowledge that their
strongest weapon IN such cases Is silence and
submission until it Is demonstrated that tine
mills cannot be operated successfully with
out the aid of skilled men now on strike.
President Shafler said tonight that no
move has vet been made by either side look
ing to arbitration. No hint has come from
the other people OH the Situation. There was
however, tendency among many OF the
labor leaders today to discuss the possibility
of arbitration. On every side was heard mem
ton OF the name OF Gov: W Stone rs an ar
bitrator. and it is said he VIII be asked to
tender his good offices in this direction.
A report was made to the Pettsburg
policeWednesda to destroy the Moron-
pahela plant Of a lot OF the American
TIN Plate company. John Scuhster,
general labor boss, says that at . 40
he detected a strong odor Of gas and
after half an hours search found that
one of the pressure gauges on the
eight inch gas pipes on the Sixteenth
street side Of the mill was open. The
pressure was strong, but Scnuster
nurriedly made wooden plug to
stop the break temporarily and then
went into the mill to get pipe fitted
to repair the break. He was not gone
long, but when he returned, he says, |
he found blazing newspaper over
tue pipe. His theory is that the |
person who had designs upon the
plant did not discover the wooden
plug, because he was in a hurry to
leave the scene and suppose that the |
gas sas still escaping, Had the break
cot beeu plugged the entire mill
would have been destroyed. The
strikers deny the story or at leest
that they hal anything to do with the
ATTEMPT.
