with the recent disturbance in Wall
street, the machinists' strike will accen-
tuate the QuietnesS that has come upon
the iron market during the month and
may prolong the waiting mood of buy
ers-
Wage questions are coming up for set
Element in the foundry trade also and
within a few weeks the rolling mill
scales in bar sheet and tin plate mills,
governed by the amalgamated ass0cia-
ton agreement will be matters of con
ference between manufacturers and
men Demands for increased wages are
in the air and the immediate future of
the iron trade viii turn upon the spirit
in which the wage situation is met.
If advances are made in rolling mill
wages, manufacturers viii be inclined
to hold present market prices, but as al
ways consumption and production will
be the arbitrator of prices until con-
solicitations and pools should be unwise
enough to attempt to make the market
by main strength.
Leaving out the contingencies referred
to, the situation at the moment finds
its strength in the enormous consump-
ion in progress having as its base the
unusual prosperity of railroads and ag-
riculture and implement manufa factories.
These industries bid fair to have a con-
tinuance of the large demand now upon
them. in view of the excellent character
of crop reports up to this time. Car or
ders continue to be of large volume and
there is no sign that the railroads can
lessen the scale of their equipment pur-
chases for months to come.

GOMPERS Is CONFIDENT.
Feels Certain That the Machinists
Will Win Their Strike.

Chicago, May 2S.-Samuel Gompers,
president .of the American Federation
of Labor. arrived in Chicago from Gin
cinnati. He is here to settle disputes ex-
listing among various labor organiza-
lions. Discussing the machinery trades
situation President GomperS said:
THE old New York agreement be-
tween the machinists and the manu-
facturers of machinery has been broken
by the latter, and the, fight of the ma
chinistS for nine hour day and proper
wages will be carried on to a finish. The
nine hour day is a settled fact in the
machinery trade. and the wages will
come. The demand of the international
Association of Machinists is strictly fair
A majority of the skilled trades and
many of the unskilled trades already
have an eight hour day and it is a
shame that the machinists, the most
highly skilled of all, should be compell-
ed to strike to get nine hours The man
ufacturers say they made a concession
in granting nine hours. The bad lands
take all such concessions. The situa-
ton SO far is most satisfactory and If
20 per cent of the men now on strike
gain their point nothing will be lost
by the abrogation of the New York
agreement which the manufa cturerS
have broken both in spirit and letter.
Beyond a strike on the part of the sew
eral pattern makers in Frazer and Chal-
mers' factory, nothing of interest de-
veloped today in the local labor situa-
ton.

Peoria, H.. May 2S.-At the meeting Of
the Illinois State Medical society, in ses-

was unanimously made:
Resolved That the school of gradual
ton shall be no bar to membership in
the Illinois State Medical society, provid-
ing such physician is recognized by the
local society as qualified and not claiming
to practice any exclusive system Of medi-
cine
This action admits to full membership
in the local and state societies all legally
qualified physicians who do not practice
any exclusive pathy. 1t sweeps away the
sectarian bars which to many have only
existed in name. and in the words of one
of the members of the medical society.

A POLICY OF ECONOMY.
Sweeping Reduction of Salaries at
Arkansas City, Kansas

Arkansas City, Kan, May 23.-At the
council meeting last night a sweeping
reduction was made in the salaries of
city officers in an effort to reduce city
expenses so as to meet the reduced reve-
nues since the joint tax has been dis
continued The revenue from the joints
has been about $500 per month.
The salary Of the city clerk is now cut
from SIS to $50 per month: city mar
shall $50 to 40; two policemen at $40 each
dispensed with entirely; city attorney
1885 to 1866: fire chief. S47 to S45:
three night hremen reduced to one at
$; street commissioner from $40 per
month by the year to $40 for four
months; police judge from s35 TO SO
per month
The street electric lights have been
shut off and the lamps taken down. The
general fund of the city is overdrawn
$1,000, and some of the other funds are
short The council has voted down an
occupation tax, and the question now to
the front is how to raise revenue. The
mayor IS dry, but a majority of th@
council is wet. hence a revenue from
the joints is not to be expected at pres
emit
