Controversy In the ..s.
Mill There Rs,

Pittsburg, July 9.-President Shstfer
yesterday issued statement in which
he served notice on the American Sheet
Steel company. the United States Steel
corporation and everybody else con-
nected with the present trouble, that he
had declared off all negotiations until
the sheet steel company consented to
re-instate the men at Wellsville. Dur
ing the afternoon he emphasized his
position by sending telegram
to the officials In New York.
Arrangements for the conference
this week, commencing probably to-
morrow, were virtually complete on the
part Of the sheet steel and steel hoop
officials yesterday morning The con-
ference would probably have convened
to-day had not the unfortunate affair
occurred at Wellsville.
In the light of the official declaration
of President Shaffer however, 1t was
useless to proceed further. The notice
of the renewal of the wage conferences,
this week, which was to have gone to
President Shaffer early in the day, did
not reach him at all. Negotiations are
at a standstill. Unless somebody
breaks down there would seem to be no
escape from general strike order, call
ing out every member of the Amalga-
mated association employed by the con-
stituent companies of the United States
Steel corporation.
