UNION MEN PLEASED
 WITH THE DECISION
L. 6 N. DISPATCHER IS HELD TO ANSWER CHARGE OF DISMISS ING A MAN BECAUSE HE BE- LoNoEp TO A UNION.

Louisville, August Limited States Com missioner cassin today gave his dlrec- ton in the preliminary hearing of the case of J. M. Scott, chief train dispatcher of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company, holding Scott in $500 bond td answer at the October term of the United States district court for alleged violation of the Erdman law. The case is considered by union labor men to be one of the most important of any brought to trial in re- cent years.
 The Erdman act. which applies to en- ployes engaged in the nov ng of inter state commerce, provides that no employ CT or his agent shall require any agree ment from an employe to abstain from Joining a labor union; that no employe shall be threatened with loss of employ ment for joining or remaining a member of a union and that no empioye or ap- plicant for employment shall be black listed or diseriminated against for affiliat- ing with union.
 Members of the Order of Railway Teleg- raphers filed complaint and testified that Scott had violated all of the provisions of the act. Scott testified that certain acts complained of were done by direction of his superiors. Attorneys for the defense set up the plea that telegraphers are not instrumental agents of interstate com meree under the meaning of the act. The attorneys for the telegraphers cited against this contention pleas that telegra- phers are co-employes of trainmen made by railroads in defending damage suits brought for injuries by telegraphers.
 The penalty for violation of the Erdman act is a fine of from s100 to S1000 for each offense.

Big Earnings By Steel Trust.

New York, August 1.--The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 Simultaneously with reports of a fur ther access of strength in all the pig iron markets in the country comes the state ment of the United States steel corpora ton showing the largest quarterly earn lngs in It's history. Traders now speak with less reserve concerning 1907 pros- poets. after having for some time limited their predictions of good times to 1906. The volume of orders on the steel cor poratons books on June 30 6,S09.5S9 tons, Is the largest i>~1-year total It has been able to report
 Pig Iron has been the feature of the weeks market. In the east the buying movement in basic iron that was well un- der way a week ago carried the total purchases for the fortnight above 125000 tons, some estimates reaching 10000 tons. The remarkable fact about 1t is that the consumers provide for their needs for the balance of the year with advance between tho first and last buying of but % cents.
 The western situation in steel making iron Is indicated by the resumption of shipments of Bessemer iron by the steel corporatioiN from the valleys to Chicago. Conservatism prevails, however, and it Is said that the corporations purchases of Bessemer for the last quarter will be made at about 50 cents above the SIPS valley basis for the last contract
 Foundry Iron markets are advancing. with here and there buoyant tendency which may need restraining. Southern irons are 20 cents to 90 cents higher. with $13.75 and s14 Birmingham commonly asked.
 Tn tho Buffalo district further advance of 50 cents was made, and eastern Penn sylvania markers have marked up their figures
 Foreign low phosphorus Iron Is now off, fered on the seaboard at parity with domestic iron. In foundry Irons imports are not likely, but 1t Is intimated that s1 50 more on the domestic price might open the gates.
 Finished material markets show unusual midsummer activity distributed all along the line At Chicago railroads have en- tered large orders for track supplies. Steel buying for the week has been light. but some export business was done with Mexico and Porto Rico. Car buying goes on steadily.
 A large order for 12-lnch line Iron pipe for western Pennsylvania adds to the al- ready phenomenal tonnage of pipe and tube mills.

ENDLESS CHAIN PRAYER
 IS DECLARED ILLEGAL

The matter was laid before Inspector craighead through receipt of one of the letters by Miss J. c. Miller of Il North Bouquet street. The letter accompanying the prayer Is as follows:
 This prayer was written by Bishop Lawrence, who recommended 1t be writ ten and sent to nine other persons. He who will not write and send this will be overtalxen by some misfortune. One person who did not pay attention to 1t met with dreadful accident. They who will write and send this prayer for nine days, commencing on the day 1t Is re- eeIved. will experience great Joy at Je- rusalem. 1t Is said that he who writes this will be delivered from every calam- ity Please do not break the chain.
 The letter was signed "A Friend.'
 Miss Miller received two such letters and was much annoyed. The other letter she received bore the signature of the sender, who is young woman connected with the church to which Miss Miller belongs.
 Postoffiee Inspector cralghead says the method Is clear violation of the postal laws. He said if the names of the senders were placed In his hands he would sue.

HARRY THAW WINS
 IN HIS CONTENTION
BLACK AND oLcoTT ARE DIS MISSED AND THE TRIAL WILL NOT BE MADE ON PLEA OF IN- SANITY.

New York, August 1.-Yielding to the persuasion of her son. Harry Thaw, Mrs. William Thaw today dispensed with the services of the firm of Black, olcott' Cru Der & Boning, whom she had retained to conduct the defense of the young man in the charge of murdering. Stanford White. Following a family counsel held last night at the residence of her daugn- ter, Mrs. Carnegie, at which Mrs, Harry Tnaw was present. Mrs. William Thaw this afternoon sent the following letter to her counsel:
 'Messrs Black. Olcott, Gruher & Bonins'
 New York:
 ..Gentlemen-After fully considering the question have decided that my sons po- sition is the right one. Will you therefore kindly deliver to Messrs. Hartidge and Peabody, No. 149 Broadway. all docu- ments letters, notes, memoranda, data and all papers you have for me and full statement of your account
 "Thanking you for your courteous at tention to my wishes during the past two weeks. I remain, very truly yours
 M. C. THAW.'
 Former Governor Blacks firm was en- gagged by Harry Thaw to take charge of his defense few days after the trag- edy. disagreement occurred between the prisoner and Mir Ocott on the question of the line of defense to be adopted, MT. Ol- colt insisting on the plea of insanity, to which Thaw was opposed. A day or two before his mother arrived from Europe szaa 1,4e a1 fal9 affairs in the hands of his personal att torney, Clifford Hartridge. Mrs Thaw' 8 first act on landing was to re-engage Black, Olcott, Gruber x Boning. Since then Mrs Thaw has been unremitting in her efforts to persuade her son to ac- ouesoe In her views and permit her to dictate his defense In this she failed. This is taken to mean that his plea of mot guilty will stand and that emotional in sanity and evidence going to show justifi- cation under the "unwritten law will be relied upon to secure acquittal
 MT. Olcott tonight declined to make any comment on Mrs. Tnaw's action
 It is understood that MT. Hartridge does not intend to conduct the case single- handed He has been in consultation for week with several prominent crim- inal lawyers. A number of these lawyers lave already been retained to assist in the defense and are now at work on diff ferent ends of the case. One of the most noted lawyers in the United States will conduct the trial in court.

First Broke Out Monday.
St. Petersburq on Anxious Seat

St Petersburg, August 2-(2:12 a. m.)- St. Petersburg is anxiously awaiting news of the outcome of yesterdays battle be- tween the mutineers and the government forces at Sveaborg. No definite informa- ton has been received here owing to the damage done to the land telegraph wires The advices received by the government by wireless telegraph have not been di- vulged.
 The utmost importance Is attached to the conduct of the feet According to semi-offical intimation the crews of these vessels are still under the control of their officers but private adyices say that portion of the crews have been confined below decks for fear of mutiny
 There was a rumor in circulation here tonight that four of the ships of the Bal tic squadron were in complete mutiny and roaming at large in the gulf of Finland, and that the commandant at Cronstadt had been notified to be prepared for an attack by these vessels.
 It is worthy of note that dispatch to an official agency from Helsingfors, an- nouncing the arrival of the fleet orr Svea- borg and the fact that it opened fire, does not mention what 1t opened fire against
 BiriIeff to Take Charge.
 Vice Admiral Bireff presumably has gone to Helsingfors to assume personal command of the fleet as it now develops that Grand Duke Alexander Michaelo- vich, the Emperors brother, Is not with the fleet as previously reported, but at Gatchina with the Empress Dowager.
 The most intense anxiety prevails with regard to a possible uprising at Cron- stadt and the general spread Of the re- volt through the entire naval establish ment A personal visit by a correspondent of the Associated Press to Cronstadt, however, shows that the authorities there received timely warning of the events at Sveaborg and nipped possible revolt in the bud. They had the situation well in hand Tuesday night and quietly placed detachment of infantry at the doors of the marine barracks and removed the car pines from the racks in the building.
 Sailors at cronstadt Arrested
 Yesterday morning the 1500 sailors com- posing the Seventh equipage quartered at Cronstadt, whose loyalty had been dis trusted. found themselves prisoners. The correspondent saw them looking out of the windows of their barracks and unable to communicate with the outside. The streets of Cronstadt are swarming with troops of the loyal guard regiments and the newly arrived men of the Twenty fourth division, who serve to overawe the elements.
 The commandant at Cronstadt ordered the confiscation of newspapers from St. Petersburg in order to prevent the news of the outbreak from reaching the island CTS. This measure was fairly success full.
 A group of agitators who went over to Cronstadt in the same boat with the correspondent of the Associated Press at- tempted to hold meetings and communf- cate news of the Seavborg happenings. They were dispersed however, and fled before the leveled rifles of the soldiers. As the correspondent was crossing from Cronstadt to Oranienbaum he saw the iIn- perial yacht Polestar lying with steam up at the pier below the imperial resi- dence at Peterhof.

HEAVY SPECIFYING
 |S EASILY FEATURE
Prosperity in Iron Trade Not
 Confined to Trust
PIG IRON IS RATHER HIGH
Quotations Are to Be Considered With Allowances and the Buoyant Tendency May Need
 Restraining.

Cleveland, O., August 1.-(Speeial. )-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 The very heavy specifying by nearly all users of iron and steel products is a very prominent feature of present strong conditions.
 Much heavier contracting has char aeterized some other periods, but the tendency not to specify on contracts when business declines is well understood in the trade. When. however, specifications are received in the great volume in which they are now coming in, there can be no doubt of genuine prosperity.
 One of the largest Independent n- terests reports that in July the specifi- cations received were the heaviest in any month in it's existence. This Is only one of many indications that the steel cor poration, with it's unprecedented earn nings has no monopoly on prosperity Present conditions are remarkably free from unfavorable features, but the time has undoubtedly arrived when it would be well to consider some quotations es- pecially on pig iron, with allowances. The very high prices occasionally named generally come from concerns which have disposed of their products for the re- mainder of the year. although in some cases buyers have been willing to pay liberally for prompt shipment The heavy buying basis pig iron in eastern Pennsyl- yanfa has been a prominent feature, the aggregate amount being about 100000 tons. In Chicago there has been heavy buy ing of foundry grades aggregating some 5o,000 tons. In all centers the market has been very strong with d tendency to advance.
 The old material market which has been the one weak feature for many months, shows decided indications of i'm provement, and there seems to be pros- pect that dealers will get their share of prevailing prosperity
