WILL BE NO STRIKE.

CHICAGO, July 15.-"There will be no
strike at this mill" said VIM. c. Davis,
vice president of the ~Amalgamated Asso-
oiation of Iron and Steel Workers, to-
night, in referring to the Illinois Steel
Cornpany's plant at South Chicago. "un-
less a sympathetic strike is ordered, which
will tie up all the mills in the country.
In that case nearly 1850 men will obey
the order and walk out from here. | hope
1t will not come to that, as We have had
no strike in this mill in the last four
years. While the men are not looking
for trouble here, their treasury is in good
condition, and every man is ready to stay
out for a good long time
Mr.. Davis said the only mills in his
district which are affected by the strike
order so far are the tin mills at Joliet,
Ills, where 500 men are employed, and
the tin plate mall at Muskegon, Mich,
where 1900 men will walk out on receipt
of orders to do so. Both these plants are
owned by the American Tin Plate Com
pany. The other steel mills in this dis
trict are the rail ar1 billet mills at
South Chicago. Moline and Kewanee, Ills,
and Milwaukee. If these shall be ordered
on strike, he said, nearly 5000 men would
obey the order.

Yesterday morning Mrs. Gibson LaH.o
received a telegram from Mountain
Lake Park, Md. notifying her OF the
death at that place of Miss Mary Lamb
of this city. Miss Lamb had been a
sufferer for several years, but har con-
dition was not regarded as serious
when she departed two weeks ago., IL

Mountain Lake Park. She was tie
third daughter of the late Daniel
Lamb.
Miss Lamb was An active member OF
St. Matthews Protestant Episcopal
church, and prominent in the work of
the congregation, and gave her ser
vices freely for charitable purposes.
She possessed many admirable Chris
tian traits, which united with a kindly
disposition won for her the friendship
and esteem of all with whom she was
thrown In contact.
ARRANGEMENTS for the funeral were
made yesterday. 1T will take place at
4:3O O'Clock Tuesday afternoon from
her late residence, No. 2009 Chapline

com,snv m the American Steel Hoop

Company and the American steer noop
Company. The Carnegie mills haye
not employed union labor since 1891
at the time OF the big strike, while the
two mills absorbed have always en-
ployed union labor. The original n
tention was to keep the fact OF ms
absorption quiet until after the oneers
had signed the AmaIgamated scale ana
the let the Carnegie Company carry
out the contracts with the workmeE lof
the first year. At the end OF the yeaf
n was to be determined whether the
entire list of mills controlled by the
Carnegie Company should employ
union labor or whether no union men
should be engaged. The enort was 10
be. so It Is understood, to inculeate
Carnegie non-union principles into the
entire organization. The story OF the
proposed absorption, however, ieaKea
out before the time was ripe, n 1t Is
understood that the struggle with lapor
was precipitated a year earlier than
1t was expected to occur on that ac-
count.
1t was said by men Of high standing
that since the fight has started 1t VIII
be to a finish, and that the result Will
be that the United States Steel Cor
poration will be union ridden or That
