AT THE CARNEGIE WORKS.
BIG CLAIMS MADE BY STRIKE LEADERS
MANAGERS WILL DISCHARGE ALL
AMALGAMATED MEN.
EBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE-l

[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE-l
Pittsburg Aug 16.-The strike leaders To-Day
assert that they not only have the Lower Union
mill Of the Carnegie Company tied up fast ana
tight but that the great steel plants at Home
stead and Duquesne are in the balance Al
Duquesne there is quite strong organization
already. but at Homestead it is much less, and
the local officers are energetically trying lo
locate the AmaIgamated Association men in the
plants. Information is at hand that. while the
number Of Amalgamated men in the Homestead
plant is small they are all of importance to the
operation of the plant The mill managers an
nounce positively that there will be no tenn
porizing. Every Amalgamated man will be dis
charged as soon as located. For that reason
the men are playing a careful game, but II
seems a question of short time only until they
are all discovered and removed
AT Duquesne the situation is said to be less
favorable to the continued operation OF the
plant. The organization has spread rapidly IN
the last few weeks, and even If the managers
act promptly and there is no doubt they will, it
is doubtful if the organization has been discov-
cred in time TO prevent crippIing the big works.
The men have been inoculated with the fight
for existence" idea and are under species OF
enthusiasm that almost amounts to mania. me
iron hand may be needed to restore the oalance'
and it win be tried soon as the Amalsamateo
Association men can be discovered, regardless OF
the places they occupy. President Shaffer makes
the assertion that not only Duquesne, but every
other Carnegie plant will be closed, but II the
men at the Braddock plant strike 1t will be a
surprise Homestead and Duquesne may ne
worked upon for a time, but there Is no nope
that Braddock will be affected by the wave.
The public mind IN Pittsburg has grown ap-
rrehensive and will not be satisfied until some
thing is done to confirm the claims of the
Amalgamated Association or show that they
are not to be regarded seriously The mill man
ayers say that there may be some organized
men in the Carnegie mills. But the statement
is made that no Amalgamated Association man
shall work in any Carnegie plant longer than
the fact of his connection with the organization
is established. When that is accomplished,
be discharged Whether or not this precipi-
tates trouble. the managers assert that this
course will be followed, even to the closing Of
the plants. II is this condition that is giving
ca use for serious reflection in the minds of con-
serVative men here. Western Pennsylvania is
waiting anXiously to hear from the Carnegie
plants.
While there is sorne semblance of running at
the Clark, Lindsay & McCutcheon and Painter
hoop plants. there has really been no attempt
to produce marketable material 1t is generally
adjust the machinery and put 1t in good work
ing order.
President Shaffer again denies that there is
any foundation for the statements that nego-
tiations are in progress looking toward another
conference.

MAY STRIKE IN MILWAUKEE,.
BAY VIEW LODGE TO TAKE ANOTHER
VOTE THIS AFTERNOON.

Milwaukee, Aug 16.-The members of the
Bay View Lodge of the Amalgamated Associa-
tion tomorrow afternoon will decide for sec
ond time whether not they will obey the
strike order of President Shaffer.
Michael F. Tighe, representing President
Shafer, accompanied by w. c. Davis, vice
president of the Fourth District Of the Amalga-
mated Association, arrived in Milwaukee this
afternoon. but not until late tonight did Mr..
Tighe have a conference with President Red
fern Of the local lodge relative to the date of
the meeting. The chances seem to favor a
strike. the sentiment seeming to have gained
strength since the men at Joliet decided to go
out. There are however, many conservative
members of the Bay View Lodge who favor re-
manning at work. They men who have
gone through strikes, and before such a step is
taken the question will be weighed carefully.
Should the men decide TO remain at work and
Mr.. Tighe revoke their charter the matter will
be taken to the next national convention for
settlement
The old members of the association say that
President Shaffer, in calling the strike acted
illegally and violated the constitution, and that
a charter cannot be revoked without a hearing
before the district board.
Superintendent Refs, of the Illinois Steel Com
pany's plant in this city. says that in case the
men remain at work and the lodges charter is
revoked his company will continue to pay the
scale, the same as has been signed, and. further
more, that If the lose their charter the
scale will be signed with the men as individuals
| The situation is grave.
| Some of the younger members Of the local
| lodge are in favor of a strike. They say the
Joliet and Bay View mills manufacture much
| the same goods, and there is believed to be more
| interdependence between the men of the two
plants than between South Chicago and either
! Joliet Milwaukee If Joliet had continued al
work the Bay View men undoubtedly would have
followed their example but since the Joliet lodge
changed front IL would not be surprising If Mil
Waukee takes the same course.
Secretary Tighe was seen shortly before mid
night his return from Bay View He ex-
pressed the opinion that the Bay View men vii
vote to go out at to-morrow's meeting, adding:
IF the Milwaukee men do not strike will have
been very much mistaken"

fence because of his connection with swindling
operations of the E. S. Dean Company. was ar
rested yesterday charged with fraud, deceit anu
conversion. He was held in S2.Ooo ball. Which
he had no difficulty in furnishing. The COM
nlainant is Samuel o. Scott, of East Forty
ffth-st near Third-ave. The complaint pre-
sents thirty causes of action. Reno r. Biiiing-
ton. of No A Broadway, is attorney for the
plaintiff
In septemher. 1899. Kellogg established offices
at No 80 Broadway under the firm name OF
Richard c. Berry & Co. He sent out circulars
representing Berry as at the head of S1OOoOOO
pool and offering TO open the benefits OF the
pool' to people of moderate means He offered
to receive investments of from SO up. guaran-
teeing the principal and considerable interest,"
He asserted that Berry & Co. had been In busi-
ness for twenty years, that they had an Elk
change member, and had never suffered loss.
He added glowing accounts Of fortunes made by
Berry & Co. for their customers.
In the three months in which Kellogg operated
Berry did not appear Checks were indorsed by
Heroy Struthers of No. 100 Kingston-ave.
Brooklyn. the bookkeeper. When callers finally
insisted on seeing Berry. Daniel Clarkson. or
Cohn, is said occasionally to nave impersonated
Berry. When ordered to appear as Berry
Struthers refused to obey. and left his place.
About December IL. 1899. letter was sent
to the firms customers informing them that
the concern had failed with nominal assets
Kellogg then removed TO No Stone-st.
Clarkson or Cohn went to No. 80 Newest
Mr.. Ellington has been at work on the case
for the last three months. Struthers has told
the whole story of the firms operations. An
affidavit of Arthur NJ. Berkeley, colored. of No
2Oo East One e-hundred-and-t -third-st. for five
years confidential man to Kellogg, corroborates
the allegations of Struthers.
1t is estimated that Kellogg took in from
$4,000 to $4,000 in the three months in which
he operated as Richard c. Berry & Co The
claims represented by Mr.. Scott amount to
S3, $40.
Kellogg was a promoter of the E. S. Dean
Company Later he placed before the public the

was found guilty on charges growing out of the
operations of the E. S. Dean Company. He was
sentenced to seven years in State prison, and
is now out on ball. pending appeal. He was
also found guilty, May % 1901, of fraudulently
using the mails. He was sentenced to eighteen
months Imprisonment and a $500 fine. He is
out on bail pending appeal in this case also.
Plausibilty was lent to the Richard c. Berry
& Co. scheme by the fact that there is a rep
utable broker named Jacob Berry in this city.
Kellogg declares that he only occupied offices
in the same suite with Richard c. Berry & Co.
He formerly lived at No. 146 West Forty

headquarters.
The four labor unions held meetings to-day
both morning and afternoon and decided TO
stand by yesterdays action regardless of re-
suits. Every utterance OF the speakers was ap-
plauded by the members.
Not more than 10 per cent OF the men now
