Pittsburgh, Pa, July 9.-The per-
emptory dismissal on Saturday of -
members of the Amalgamated asso-
citation at the Wellsville plant of
the American Steel Sheet company
may seriously affect the expected
settlement this week of the iron and
steel strike. When seen Monday
morning. President Shaffer, of the
Amalgamated association, was very
much exercised over the turn affairs
had taken. II cannot say when or
where the conference will take
place" said he, but one thing is GER
tain, there will be no conference un-
til the men discharged at Wellsville
are reinstated. These men come to
us. They violated no law of the land
and we shall protect them. If they
are not reinStated and the confer
ence postponed. the general strike
viii come. This is repetition of
what the sheet manufacturers did
last year. They signed the scale for
Salisbury and Old Meadows and then
stole these mills from us. The men
at Wellsville have been organized for
months | sent word for them not to
come out, as | wanted peaceable
settlement. | do not blame the chief
officials. As usual the trouble comes
from some middleman, who cannot
realize that he may be undoing the
conservative work of thoughtful
men on both sides, or that his action
may involve the commercial world.
The following concerns signed the
Amalgamated scale Monday: Stand
ard Chain company. Columbus, o.;
Niles Iron and Sheet company, Niles,

land; Empire Rolling Mill company,
Empire, O., and the Pittsburgh Forge

as soon as the repairs to the plant
are completed.

the action of the water in the narrow
passage between the vessel and the
wall so constructed will carry out the
sand which has formed around her.
II is probable that if the attempt TO
raise her proves successful she will
be put into shape. fitted up with more
or less new machinery and used by
the Matson people in the harbor here
and along the coast in connection
with their fleet of sailing vessels.

The American Whale Fishery.

Whale fishing is not extinct in the
United States. but is gradually and
slowly becoming so. From 1850 10
1875 the annual product of the Ameri.
can whale fisheries fell from 100 900
barrels of sperm oil to $4,000. of whale
oil from 500 900 to $4,000 and of whale
bone from 100000 pounds to 400. 1000.
vet nevertheless there still were 169
American vessels engaged in the for
merly profitable business of whaling.
of which 1l5 sailed from the port II
New Bedford, the other coast towns
in the business being Providence.
Mass, New London. Conn, Dartmouth.
Mass. and San Francisco. At pres
ent there are IS vessels in the busi-
ness of whale fishing. of which more
than onethird. and mostly those hav-
ing the largest tonnage, sail from San
Francisco. The chief whaling port in
New England is still New Bedford.
and Providencetown does some bust
ness. but il is a mere shadow COM
pared to that of former years. All
that remained at the beginning (
this year OF New London's whaling
feet was single rig of 10 tons.
Sperm oil. selling for SO cents in
1890. now brings Al: whale oil. in
stead of 81 cents now brings 45. and
whalebone has fallen from s5.SS 10
$40. The enormous an constantly
increasing production of American pc
troleum. the substitution of coal gas
and electricity for illumination. and OF
various mechanical substitutes for
wnaiebone. have largely diminished
the opportunities of whale fishermen.
ms recent reports show. and while the
perils Of the business have not dimin.
ished no valid reason for incurring
them exists in an era OF steam vessels
and short cruises, The reduction Of
the tonnage OF all American whaling
ships In 1890 compared with the wear
preceding was s65. and a stiu further
reduction is probable during this
year.
There is very little market in the
eastern states for whale or sperm oil
though there continues TO be some on
the Pacific. a circumstance which has
added 10 the whaling interests of San
Francisco. The ship Beluga. OF San
Francisco. after leaving winter quar-.
ters in San Francisco. had catch of
thirty-two whales The risks OF the
whaling business continue as hereto
fore 10 be numerous, Fitting up q
vessel involves considerable cost and
there is no certainty OF adequate re-
turn. as the market for whaling pro
ducts is steadily declining. Neverthe-
less, the old whalers in and about New
Bedford adhere TO the business. which
at occasional intervals shows satisfac-
tory returns. The last report of the
commissioner OF navigation AT Wash
mgton, published by the treasury de-
parfment, gives the number Of steam
vessels in whaling fisheries at ten.

Charges Made BY Mr..
Dinsmore Of Ark.
Mr.. Hepburn Inyeighs Against
Hazing at West Point.

Washington, February 21.-This was
another field day In the House. Two
distinct sensations occurred. Early in
the day, during the consideration OF an
amendments to the deficiency bill to pre-
vent hazing at the naval academy, Mr..
Hepburn of Iowa, used exceedingly
strong language while inveighing against
the practice OF hazing.
\ Mr.. Cannon of Illinois and Mr.. Dayton
OF West Virginia warmly defended the
navy. The stir caused by Mr.. Hepburn's
speech, however, was mild compared with
the row kicked up later over some Items
In the bill for extra compenEation to en-
ployes of the House. Mr. Dinsmore OF
Arkansas exposed the fact that one of the
employees OF the House, while occupying
one position, was drawing a salary for
another and that the difference between
the salaries was to be made up In one of
the items OF the bill. This led to gener-
al ventilation Of the domestic affairs OF
the House during which MI: Bailey OF
Texas, declared that the situation was a
scandal upon the integrity OF the House.
At the close of the session, Mr.. Bailey
offered resolution for the appointment
of an Investigating committee which was
referred 60 the committee on rules upon
the assurance of MIR. Payne. the majority
leader, that IL would be reported at once.
The general deficiency bill-the last OF
the appropriation bills was passed.
IN THE SENATE.
Washington, February 81 For nearly
two hours today, the Senate had under
discussion a resolution by Mr.. Jones of
Arkansas to discharge the judiciary COM
mittee from further consideration OF the
antitrust bill passed by the House at the
last session and 60 bring 1t before the
Senate for consideration. The resolution
finally went to the calendar.
During the remainder Of the afternoon
the post otiioe appropriation bill was un-
der discussion. After prolonged contest
the appropriation for pneumatic tube SER
vice was eliminated entirsly, so that as
the bill stands now, the service will have
to be discontinued after the first OF next
July.
The old controversy over the special ap-
propriations for fast mail service received
attention the rest OF the dAy.It was decid-
ed to begin holding night SESSIONS tomor-
