ences with Mr.. Shaffer or the repre-
sentatives Of the association"
Mr.. Hickey accused President Shaffer
of having printed a constitution Of the
Amalgamated Association in which
three important clauses were ellmin-
ated. He said Mr.. Shaffer assumed an
attitude of defiance during the Pitts
burg conference last week and had lit
tie to say in answer to questions put to
him. The other members of the execu-
tive board. however, seemed to be in
accord with Skaters views.
Mr. Hickey said that the ASSOCIATION
has not received the support Of other
which President Shaffer
had led the members to believe would
be Forthcoming and quoted number of
eastern labor papers to show that Mr..
shaffer has not the sympathy of the la
Dor leaders in the east. Mr.. Hickey said
that the association had been dealt a
blow by the strike from which it would
take years to recover.

crop Will prove in no sense calamity;
put In spite of favorable offsets 1t Will
enforce economy among large numbers
OF farmers and of necessity be a check
upon bushes activity. Its offsets will
be felt among merchants by the rail-
roads and in the provision markets
during the fall and winter months rath-
er than now Another important crop is
feeling adverse Weat her conditions. and
that is cotton.
General business continues in good
condition and merchants generally an
ticipate a season equalling last year in
volume. 1t is noticeable, however that
very few expect to exceed last year, and
there is wholesome feeling of con-
servatism in mercantile circles. Rail
road prosperity seems to go on without
interruption. Gross earnings show
steady gains in spite of the large in
creases of the three and four previous
years. This is chiefly the result of bet
ter rates and shows the value of har-
mony to owners of railroad securities.
AS a matter of fact many of the roads
are carrying a smaller tonnage than
last year, but they are earning fair
profit as result of reasonable and
stable rates.
We might have hao September
boom had it not been for the adverse
effect of the strike and the corn dam
age These destroyed all bullish outside
sentiment and left the market entirely
dependent upon inside support, which it
has had in unmistakable fashion.

Chicago, Sept. 2.-"Shall hogs be util-

Unless aldermen should object, an ordi-

cLEws ON FINANCE.
Stock Market in Good conditio., Blu
Higher Prices Hardly Probable.

Higher Prices Hardly Probable.
New York, Sept. 2.-Henry Clews' FL
nancial Review says:
AS intimated in these advicss we
have had a good trading market. Prices
have displayed considerable strength at
periods, and are now 5 to 10 points high
err than when the disaster to the corn
crop was first known. The advance,
however, has not been due to any out
side buying; it was attributable to man
ipulation and natural reaction.
The outlook of the stock market is
somewhat perpleXing. 1t is certainly not
so favorable as a year ago. We are up
against crop situation. If not discour-
aging, is certainly less encouraging
than last year. We are assured of good
wheat and hay crops. The former is es-
Decially important; for. owing to the
shortage in Europe, we are sure of
good export demand at satisfactory
prices. This means a high degree of
prosperity for the wheat-g growing re-
gions, good hauls for the railroads and
favorable effect upon our foreign
trade balance. This is the best that can
be said of the crop situation. Prolonged
drouth in some sections and too much
rain in others have been anything but
beneficient to crops in general. The in
jury to corn is already familiar. Late
corn has already shown great improve
ments during the last three weeks. and
crop estimates are being steadily
raised; but it is altogether too early
yet to place any fixed reliance on esti-
mates OF yield, late corn being espe.
cialy liable to frost damage. Should
corn escape frost and the weather con-
tinue favorable the remainder of the sea
son. We might easily harvest a crop of
1.400 to 1000 millions; but the frost pos
sibility makes a very important off,"
Fortunately the partial loss of the corn

STRIKE ABOUT BROKEN
Failure to Get Carnegie Men Out
Leaves Little Hope for
Strikers.
Much Dissatisfaction and Men
Going Back to Work At
McKeesport.
Representatives OF Milwaukee
Strikers Return to Deplore
Strike and Leaders.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 1.-THE steel
strikers who have been trying for a
week to get the employees Of the Carne-
ele plant at Duquesne to come out made
? last stand today and failed. The pa
rade from McKeesport to meet the
workmen on their way to the mill this
morning to induce them to remain away
had been arranged, but when the hour
arrived there We're no marchers and the
parade was abandoned. Notwithstand-
ing house-to- house canvass by the
strikers last night, only two men refused
to return to work. Today the works are
IN full operation and the strikers admit
that with their failure to get the men
out there is little hope of closing the
plant.
dissatisfaction is increasing at Nc
keesport, more particularly since it has
7oeen shown that all promises regarding
the bringing out of the Carnegie en-
ployes had been practically without
foundation, and predictions are made
that a general break in the strike at
that place is not improbable before
many days.
Last Friday about forty strikers re-
turned to work at the seamless tube
plant, and today this force is considera-
bly, increased. 1t is said that prepara-
lions are in progress for resumption of
work at the National Tube Works. The
machinists who were compelled to cease
work thru the strike have been ordered
20 report for work for the purpose of
getting the machinery in order for oper-
atoms.
The strike began it's third month to-
day with few indications of an early
peace. 1t is settled down to a question
OF endurance, with both sides making
of advantages gained. President Burns
is working on his peace project and is
hopeful that his efforts will yet be sue
oessful. He expects to hear from Presi-
dent Schwab today in reference to new
plan said to have been submitted to him
Saturday.
