Mrs. Nation also called at John L..

he would throw her in the sewer. "
Sullivan sent word that he was i'll but
made an appointment to meet her
next Monday. She then wenet to see
Archbishop Corrisan, who was out of
town.
In opening her interview with Com
missioner Murphy she asked if he did
not think New York was an awful
wicked place. The commissioner replied
in the negative and Mrs. Nation re-
peated the question as an assertion.
whereupon Mr.. Murphy requested her
to stop. saying he would not discuss
the matter with her.
She continued. however. to ply the
commissioner with questions concern
ing drinking places. all Of which he re-
fused to answer. Mrs. Nation said she
came here to do the city some good.
You don't know what you are talk

What. do you mean to say that you
won't discuss the morals of New York:

DECIDED GAINS
Are Daily Being Made by the
Steel Corporation.
Declares Men Can Only Settle by
Returning to Their Jobs.
Shalicr Simply Reiteraies The Time Worn State.
mcnt I'VE Are Satisfied"

Pittsburg, Pa. Aug. 2S.-The Steel
Corporation continues making gains in
this district and. today, added enough
men to its force at the Star plant to
insure the working of two mills double
turn night and day, from now on. The
management claims that the entire
plant will be on full time before the
week ends. The strikers say this claim
cannot be made good. and is being
made merely as a bluff.
In pursuance of it's announced plan
To run all of its plants absolutely nom
union, the American Tinplate CO.. to-
day, commenced advertising for non
union men to go to work. All appli-
cants are offered the highest wages
and permanent jobs, but in every
case the application must be made per
sonally and the applicant declare him
self free from all union control. When
asked. today what he thought of the
Tinplate COS. avowed intention of
breaking away from the union entirely
President Shaffer of the Amalgamated
Association. said:
Where will they get men to run
their plants, If We thought the men
could be secured the threat might
brighten us. Until we are assured they
are forthcoming. We will keep our
nerve
The latest official declaration from
steel sources is that the strike can now
be settled only by the men going back
TO the mills. The position the officials
take. ii is said. is that the strike is
over 50 far as their dealing with the
strikers as a body is concerned. They
want vorkmen for their idle mills and
men who want work can have it for the
down. They may be union men or not.
but the union can have no say as to
their work or wages.
Simon Burns president of the Win
dow Glass Workers Association. pro
poses an arbitration committee selected
from among such men as Archbishop
Ireland. Bishop Potter. Seth Low. NJ.
4. Hanna and others of like promi-
ncncc. who shall have absolutely au-
thority to decide upon terms of set
tlement. Their decision to be final and
accepted by both parties.
Mr. Burns says he has President
Shaffer's sanction for the move and if
the corporation will agree to the plan
the strike will be declared off at once.
None Of the steel people here will dis
CuSS the matte, in any way.
Mr. Shaftcr declared. tonight. that
the strike. in spite Of the claims of the
other side to the contrary. is proceed
ing satisfactorily and his association is
making such serious inroads on the
corporations business that it will he
compelled sooner or later to come to
terms. The fact that the corporation
is adding to its force daily does not
worry the president, because he be
lieves them tn he either unskilled or
poor Workmen. who will be a drawback
rather than help to their employers.
The steel people have nothing to say.
point To the mills at work and the
product turned out. Actions. they say.
speak louder than words.
