MARK HANNA
IS THE MAN
He Will Bring These Troubles
to Close.
CONFERENCE NO GOOD
Another VIII be Held Tomor-
row Says Schaffer.
DETECTIVES ARE BUSY
Every Move of Strikers Is
Watched by Company.

Pittsburg, Pa, July 31.-"Hope deferred
maketh the heart sick" This is express
sive Of the feeling Of the majority of
Pittsburgers tonight outside Of the inner
circles of the Amalgamated association
executive board. who have been consider
ing the proposals for a settlement of the
steel strike for two days without agree
ment How the members of the board
feel is known TO no man on the outside.
The second day Of the executive boards
elaboration was notable for many rumors
il circulation and for the conspicuous
dearth of results. The absence of three
of the principal members Of the board
from the sessions today give rise to the
story that the members were divided in
their ideas Of the peace proposals, and
that in order to satisfy all, Secretary
Williams had been sent to New York to
seek notifications at the hands Of
NIessrs. Morgan and Schwab. while AS
sistant Secretary Tighe and Trustee Nor
gan had received a commission to visit
Senator Hanna to secure his aid in bring
ing about an amicable arrangement.
Nothing tangible could be learned con-
corning the supposed trips, however, and
all talk in relation to them must remain
merely conjecture until the return of
these members and their lips are IN
sealed.
After the conference, when President
Shafer come down to so home, he was
again asked for some statement as to
the condition Of the conference, and a
probability Of a settlement. In reply he
said:
There viii be no statement given out
today. expect to call another meeting
of the board tomorrow at 10 o'clock. I
viii be present at this meeting. and will
not be out of the city tonight"
With this statement President Shaffer
left for his home. All Of the other Of
fcials who were at the meeting during
the afternoon, declined to talk strike.
They hurried away from the building to
avoid meeting the newspapermen. About
the entrance of the headquarters build
ing groups of men were gathered all
afternoon. Some were members of the
AmaIgamated association who were on
strike and interested in the proceedings.
Others were private detectives who
watched every move made by President
Shaffer and other leaders Of the Anal
gamated association. Mr.. Shaffer said he
knew Of no reason for his movements
being watched, but became deeply in
terested in the state Of affairs when told
OF it.
Confidence was felt in some circles to-
day that the strike would eventually be
settled on the propositions made by Mr..
Morgan. The officials Of the steel com
panies who have been acting for the
United States Steel corporation in this
matter, were apparently hopeful and
ighthearted
