SECURE MORE MEN.
strikers Not Discouraged mt
the Outlook

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 4.-Develop-
ments in the steel strike show de-
cided gains for the manufacturers.
The accession of 80 skilled men to
the Star plant, the increased produc-
ton at the Painter and the Lindsay
and McCutcheon mills, the DETECTION
from the strikers ranks of rs ma
chinists and pipe cutters at the Con-
tinental tube works and so at the
Pennsylvania tube works, the impor-
tation of 10 men to the Monesscn
steel hoop mill and the installation
of three mills on night turn at the
Clark mill all point to an early re-
sumption all along the line as viewed
by the steel officials.
The Amalgamated officials, how
ever, make the claim that everything
is progressing satisfactorily, and say
that much of the supposed advantage
of the manufacturers is bluff, and
cannot be made good. AS an instance
they cite the Lindsay & McCutcheon
plant, where the company claims to
have as many men at work as they
can accommodate and turning out
merchantable product. The Amalga-
mated people claim that James Hur-
ley, vice president of the First dis
trict, visited the Lindsay & McCutch-
con mill Tuesday in the .'uise
O.: roller seeking work. He made
an inspection of the mill and, ac-
cording to his report, there are 80
men at work, six of whom are skilled.
The strikers also claim that at the
Monessen plant the product turned
out last week amounted to 100000
pounds, while before the strike the
daily output was 100000 pounds.
Matters at McKeesport are quiet
and to all appearances unchanged.
Strikers point to the fact that the
machinists who were persuaded Mon
day to leave the National tube works
did not go in Tuesday as victory for
them. The much talked-of start of
the Demmler plant is still being dis
cussed, and the attempt to start is
now scheduled for the latter part OF
the week. The management claims
that the only thing holding them
back is adequate protection for the
workers, full complement of whom
they say are ready to go in. Mayor
Black is still holding back his final
answer to the request for police pro.
lection. 1t is reported that the strik.
ers at Duquesne intend to make an
other effort to close that plant by
getting the open hearth men out, but
nothing definite on the subject can be
learned.
At Wheeling the strikers are hold
ing their own and there is no indica.
ton of an attempt to start any of the
shutdown plants. Wellsville reports
no change. The report from Canal
Dover is to the effect that, although
District Manager Cline promised
Monday that four mills would be
fired up Tuesday morning, only one
mill, small 34-inch sheet mill, was
fired. The strikers claim this was
caused by the desertion of nine Of
the nonunion men who returned .tc
Vandergrift, from which place they
came last Sunday.

fits anger over miles of the eastern

caused by terrific rain that COM

SHERIFF APPEALED TO,
Request for Protection Made by
Demmler Tin Plate Plant.

request for Protection Made by
Demmler Tin Plate Plant.
, Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 5.-Prepara-
tons have been completed for the
starting up of the Demmler tin-plate
plant at McKeesport. The start will
be made with full force of deputy
sheriffs on guard, the American Tin
Plate company having served notice
on Sheriff Mckinley, of this, Ale
gheny, county, that violence was
feared. The Introduction of the
strong arm of the law into the steel
strike will, it is believed, undoubted-
ly bring about crisis in the situa-
ton. In some quarters it is thought
1T may lead to an early settlement of
the present labor troubles, and in
others that the presence of the sher-
ifs forces may result in conflict
The request for protection was made
by Superintendent Laucl1, and Sher-
+, iff Mckinley at once made arrange
ments for dispatching large num-
Der of deputies to the scene. This
was done Wednesday afternoon.
The deputies will be under the
SA"A sc VI SliiS1 DSPuOJ AOW1y3 d.
though it is probable that Sheriff
Mckinley will accompany him there.
Deputy Lowry salu the sheriff had
sworn in a sufficient posse, but he did
not anticipate trouble. The strikers,
he said, would be treated with the ut
smost respect, but they would not be
Apermitted to encroach upon property
4 that is not theirs. The deputies will
be armed.
President Shaffer, of the Amalga-
mated association, said he knew last
week that the request would be made
for protection.
eff our men keep away from the
mills, which 1 have no doubt they
WILL" said he, ''they can put all the
deputies they want there"
President Shaffer will be on hand,
or have trusted assistant at the
plant, to see that no violence is done
to strike breakers and that his men
make no demonstration.
