he when advising the purchase of
Amalgamated at 80 and upward have
done so for the purpose Of selling his

Board of Cancellation Meets
to Adjust Dispute Between
Steel Concern and It's Men
BOTH SIDES ARE HEARD
Employees Object to Reduc-
tiOn in Pay of Mechanics
Company Thinks Necessary

CHICAGO, Sept. lO.-A board Of
Cancellation, selected by the Republic
Iron and Steel Company and 10000 of
ITS employees, has met here 10 fix a
scale Of wages for the coming year.
The decision OF the board was with
held pending additional arguments by
the employees, which are TO be heard
to-day. The dispute which the board
Is 10 settle arose over the desire OF
the company to reduce the wages of
its skilled merchant" iron workers
from 5 TO Is per cent As provided
IN the working agreement, which has
been in force since 1901, conference
committees from the company and the
unions having failed 10 agree on an
adjustment OF wages, the matter was
left TO a board OF Cancellation.
The arguments Of the company
tended to show that reduction in its
business. combined with large outlays
in the erection Of new plants, did not
justify the continuation of last years
wage scale. These claims were met by
the steel workers representatives with
the contention that the number of en-
ployes had been reduced in several
plants. thus comparatively tightening
the expenses.
The steel company was represented
in the arbitration proceedings by Col
onel G. Watson French chairman of
the executive board; James II. Mutt.

Effective Low. Power Engines
Farmers Find Them Very USE
ful--Cet the National"

To speed the work of the farm, a
gasoline engine has been found ex-
ceedingly useful and economical. In
choosing one for heavy work, the
Michigan Five-Horse is to be pre-
ferred. For lighter work we would
advise the National Model No. 2, of
one and half horse power. This is
the only engine on the market hay
ing the direct attached pump. 1t will
pump about 80 barrels an hour.
Model No. I, same power, makes a
first-rate feed and stalk cutter and
cream separator. No better engines
than the National are made any
where. The various models are fully
illustrated and described in hand
some booklet which will be sent free
by addressing the National Engineer
ing Co., Saginaw, w. S., Mich. The
company will be pleased to CORE
spond with any of Our readers re-
garding these helps to the farmer,
and can give valuable advice which
should be taken advantage of.

was not moved, and the man lost his
