question of the examination of working

whether man is Il member OF the union
and whether his dues have been paid.

The strike now affects 5,7O0 in this
city. AT the end Of the week the mum
ber will be increased to $500. The ad-
dition will be caused by the stoppage Of
the Rosenau, Raney, Shenango and
Neshannock Furnaces. These furnish
their product OF pig iron to the steel mill,
th, capacity of which is 1900 tons per
day. This plant furnishes nearly one
fourth OF the total tonnage Of the Ma
tional Steel Company. When the steel
mill shuts down the four auxiliary fur
naces will be forced to coke down to
await the result of the strike. The
frrnaccmen are not organized, but they
are almost to man in sympathy with
the strikers. They say they must unite
in the general battle in favor Of the
laboring men. In accordance with this
they will refuse 20 work. Whether or
not the United States Steel Corporation
intends to operate the four local furnaces,
they will close down in few days.

Comparison Made Between Wells

THE LATTER rs CHEAPER
For Cily Lighting According to the
Figures Of a Man Who Made
Street Illuminating
a Study.
THE LATTER rs CHEAPER

1t was reported yesterday that an
effort was being made by certain persons
to try and have the Street and Sewer
Department award to the Welsbach
Light Company the contract to furnish
1000 street lights instead of five hundred
as originally proposed. Every day the
sentiment opposing the lighting of tile
city by gas is growing. Additional argyll
ments are being presented which show
hat the bid Of the Wilmington City
Electric Company is by far the cheapest.
II is also to the best interests of the
city to use electricity. One man who is
familiar with the street lighting question
said last evening:
The people Of the city should raise
up in arms against the use of gas for
lighting the streets ut the price quoted
ay the gas company. The ordinary gas
light will burn from four to six feet in I'M
hour. With the Welsbach mantle not
more than four or five feet would lie
3nlmcd IN the same time. This is con
'ilerably less than is furnished con
,umers who burn the gas in their HOUSES.
II is estimated that 400 mours is the life
II !; light OF this kind. 1t is alleged by
the officers of the gas company that
iXty-iive candle power will be given.
..'rhose who have made Il test of the
mantle know that after it is used for
ometime the light gets dim. Although
,iXty-tiv" candle power may be given the
ilst night but fifty-fve lis given tho
econd night and the 400 hours is up but
bout 80 per cent of the original candle
lower as given"
Now that have told you about the
,oor light. allow me to take up the finan-
'inl end OF the affair. There are about
1000 hours Of lighting in a year. Ii the
nantles were changed at the end of every
iG0 hours each lamp would require ten
mantlrs. Ten can be bought for 81 20.
anybody can buy them for this price
rho Wilmington Coal Gas Company is
oaid about $l2 a year for each lamp by
the Welsbach Company which would
cave the latter company profit of near
y $14 on each lamp.
'.If the city wanted to burn gas it could
10 so much cheaper. The Wilmington
inal Gas Company has sfu1nisbetf -Ensr 10
he city Mt SIG lamp and counting the
.ost of mantles it would not cost more
han SIS year per lamp.
The above figures show that the Will
nington Coal Gas Company is furnishing
as to this outside corporation mt a
heaper rate than it does to the people
who live hero. The profit in the gas
lighting for the WelSbach Company is
AIKEN ont Of town and spent there, the
merchants of this city getting no benefit
whatever from it. On the other hand the
lcctric light company is 4 local corpora
'ion whose interests are identical With

many costly litigations.
The constitutionality of an act of
Congress passed i'm 1884 and amended in
1856 and 1898 was questioned. The ques-
ion involved was whether it applied to

Both Sides Now Lock for Fight tt

Pittsburg, Aug. with the issue
of the general strike order of Presi-

theory that confronts the public, but
an actual condition. 1t is now gener-

terminated until either the one or the
other of the contending parties is de-
feated. Who this will be is yet a sub
ject Of speculation. Still there are
some, endowed with more hopefulness
than most people, who express the
opinion that the order of President
Shaffer will not 20 into effect and that
