DECLINED By THE MEN.
Tin Workers VIII Not Accept he
duction in Wages.

Pittsburg, Aug 4.-The proposition
made by the American Tin Plate Com
pany to its employees that they accept a
reduction in wages Of d per cent, has
been rejected. The vote which has beel
In progress for several weeks was tabu-
lated today with the above result.
Another conference between the COM
pany and the Amalgamated Association
has been arranged and probably will be
held In New York within two weeks.
The proposition was thoroughly under
stood by the workers, 1t having been ex-
planned that in order to secure the for
eign trade, amounting to about 1,6o0
boxes. the general wage reduction would
not be more than 3 liz per cent and that
the production would be increased fully
16 Ia per cent, which would increase the
earnings of the workers about II Ia per
cent. 1t is explained that while the ma
Jority Of the men would work at a slight
reduction in order to secure more en-
ployment most Of them are from Wales
and are friendly to their Seliow workmen
across the ocean. II the proposition had
been accepted the tin plate workers in
Wales would be deprived of employment
This fact Influenced many to vote against
accepting the offer.
The American Tin Plate Company will
now be unable to secure this increased
business and as stocks are large. II IL
forced to close a number OF its plants.
The largest plant In the world. the She
mango works at Newcastle, have been
shut down indefinitely and several in In
diana have closed. The two works at
New Kensington are also Idle. All the
non-union plants Of the company are in
full operation.

Relations Of Labor and
Capital.

Cleveland. O., Aug. A--The seven o.
eight hundred employees of the Cleveland
City Railroad Company, of which Sena-
tor NJ A. Hanna is president. met here
tonight and presented Senator Hanna
with a valuable cane.
In acknowledging the gift Senator Han
ma expressed his sincere thanks to his
employees for their gift and incidentally
spoke Of the relations that he hopes to
see exist between capital and labor In
part he said:
Il cannot adequately express my feel
ings on this occasion. 1t has been the
one ambition of my life to merit the
respect. If not the affection Of the men
in my employ. have been with labor
ing men all my life and have been en-
ployer for many years. apd this night
means something for me, for 1t brings
with it the satisfaction Of knowing that
so large a number Of men in my employ
have been satisfied with my career as an
employer.
Your chairman has referred to the
civic federation. 1 say to you that were
it not for my official position and my
duties as a public servant, I would de-
vote more of my time to the policies on
which that organization is founded"
Concerning the anthracite strike Sena-
tor Hanna said: when the great an

but failed. After 1t was on we worked
hard to settle 1t but failed. However In
that matter 1t is my personal satisfac-
ton to know that the statemen l made
at that time. that the men would not go
back on their word has been kept and
that a sympathetic strike has been avert
ed. 1 told the federation that there
would be no sympathetic strike among
the bituminous miners. 1 believe in
manhood.
Labor organizations are nothings
which can be sued for breach of con-
tract. They have no corporate existence.
But 1 would rather have the promise of
a laboring man backed only by his sense
of honor and his manhood than any
agreement which might be enforced by
law.
Manhood and integrity are the same,
whether they belong to a miner, a street
railway man or a boss. For myself, I
have no higher ambition than to work for
the purpose of bringing capital and labor
nearer together and to live out my life
in Cleveland, where have lived for nifty
one years"
