CHINESE WAY OF PUTTING 1T.
The Edict ~FOrbidding the
tion of Arms Not ntisfactor

Pchin, Aug. 2S.-The imperial edict
forbidding the importation of arms
and munitions of war is not satisfac-
tory to the foreign ministers. A
meeting of ministers has been called
to discuss the edict. 1t ignores the
vital fact that the prohibition D.
plies TO the government, and that it
is part of the Chinese punishment.
The edict makes it appear to be
merely the governments voluntary
act'prohibiting Chinese subjects from
importing arms and munitions as the
country is disturbed by brigands.

peace for the striking steel workers
within ten days was the interesting
topic III strike circles here, but moth
ing definite could be learned. Presi-
dent Shatfer said that, while the re-
port may be true, he had no knowl-
edge of it. He did not see how a set
Element could be effected without the
Amaleamated association, and while
some may hope Tor such good luck,
yet in the face of gains made by the
strikers, he would not back down
from his original position. The steel
officials reiterated their previous
statements that no overtures for
peace had come from the strikers and
that the strike could only be settled
by the return of the men to their
places.
shnffer's Peace Proposition.
The peace proposition sent out by
President Shatfer to the members of
the executive board of the Amalga-
mated association, for their approval
previous to presentation to the Unit
ed States Steel corporation, by the
representatives of the National Civic
Federation, lends color to the peace
rumors, and the provisions of the
plan are being discussed by the strik-
ers at Lindsay & McCutcheon's works.
The proposition provides for a pro-
v~isional scale not to be signed for
this plant, leaving recognition of the
union open. The men stated that
they were prepared to return to work
tomorrow, under these conditions.
They stated that all they would re-
quirc will be that the Amalgamated
scale be paid and that union men be
allowed perfect liberty and no dis
elimination.

Notwithstanding the reports that
all preparations had been made, the
tin plate mill at Demmler did not re-
sumo Wednesday morning. II was re-
ported that 200 machinists and help
ers went back at the works OF the Ma
tional Tube Co., but this is denied BY
the strikers. The Star lin plate
Plaht, IN TINS c1ty, was running three
turns Wednesday morning. Supt.
Piper stated that, so far as the Star
plant was concerned. the strike was
practically a thing of the past. Six
