STRIKE BREAKERS SAFE IN
PRESENCE OF WOMAN.
She Escorts Non-uniOn Men To and From Mill
Without MoIeStation.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 20.-F'ollowing
the rapid moves of yesterday on either
side of the great steel strike. there was
a lull today, and neither side took decis-
i've action. The contest appears to be
settling down into a determined strUg-
gle. in which neither side viii acknOwl-
edge defeat while there is hope left. JO-
seph Bishop. the Ohio arbitrator, APP
peared here today, but both sides
promptly repUdiated the suggestion that
another move for peace was being con-
sideTed.
The steel managers succeeded in
starting the last idle mill al the Clark
plant. and are evidently planning a
series of extensions at every point
where there IS a chance Of success. They
will probably start the Star tin mills in
this city, and increase the force at the
Lindsay & MCCutcheOn mills.
An interesting feature of the fight at
the latter mill is contributed by the
claim of the strikers that Mrs Fred
Baugh, wife of the superintendent, is
escOrting the strike breakers to and
from the mill. She has always been
very popular with the millmen, and the
pickets say they would rather face a
regiment of soldiers than do anything
improper in her. presence They say that
in peace times she nurSed their t3mllleS,
and that they cannot interfere with
her or the men she escorts.
The steel managers are also arranging
for more men for the Painter and Mo
nessen mills. Veryl Preston, represent
ing President Scnwab, was here today
and conferred with leading officials OF
the c0mnanies federated in the Steel
CORPORA ton. Mr.. E<eston and the Of
fcials whom ne met would not talk for
publication.
The strikers met the movement TO re-
omen the mills with nOn-union men Win

skilled men TO operate them. Their

But is Not Wanted For Stealing a
Watch.


When shown the foregoing dispatch
late last night Postmaster Thomas said
that ii was the first ne had heard OF
the mat tier, except that he was IN
formed that Mcbride was under sus-
piciOn as the man who committed the
big robbery three weeks ago, when all
of the registered packages in the mail
from the north We're stolen out of the
locker in the receiving room. Asked
as to what was intended by the refer
ence to the robbery of July IA, the
postmaster said it probably had rela-
ton 10 the report of a missing regis
tered package some time prior TO the
robbery OF July 81. but as to the eX-
tent of the earlier robbery he did not
recall, save that it was insignificant
compared with the later robbery.
Postmaster Thomas said ne knew
nothing about the woman in the case,
and he had always understood that
Mcbride and his wife were living to-
gether and happily to all outward ap-
pearances.
Chief Hilton, when asked this morn
ing in regard to Mcbride being want
ed here on a charge or robbery, said
that he knew nothing of any such
charge, and did not know that he was
wanted here at all. Neither the chief
nor any of the officers have seen Ne
Bride in the city since he was released
from the penitentiary about two years
ago. and they are inclined to believe
that he has not been here since that
time, unless he came here on the
quiet.
The CIaypool woman mentioned in
the dispatch is well known in this city,
where she formerly resided. II was his
infatuatiOn with this woman, it is
claimed, that led to GICBTlde-s downfall
several years ago.

AT The Mickels' Homo.

Spring City, Aug. 20.-The shocking
news in yesterdays Herald regarding
the killing OF Link at Castle Dale by
Fred Nickel was read with keen in
terest by the people of Spring City.
Fred and Peter Nickel left here a
few days ago for Emery county. where
they are largely interested. Rumor
had it that Fred was TO be married in
a very short time, and had gone out
TO his ranch in Emery county TO pre-
pare home.
Pete has been home here for some
time, and was preparing for a motion
for a new trial at the next term Of
court at Castle Dale. The general
opinion here is that Pete had no hand
in the affair. Fred. however, is adj
dicted TO the use of intOxicants and it
was perhaps while under that influence
that the deed was committed The
Nickel boys have been residents Of
Spring City all their lives.
