iron Stag and clubs, sums up the result
of the first days surprise strike" by
the men employed in the Pressed Steel
Car company's plant at McKees Rocks

The riotng, starting shortly after

came without much apparent reason on

eign element, assert that since a pool
ing system of pay has been introduced
they have been receiving less pay for
the same number Of hours previous to
the change.
The men employed by the Pressed
Steel Car company are not members or
any particular union or organization,
and their strike does"not in any way
affect the union organizations here
The authorities now believe they have
the situation we'll in hand.
Tonight the company attempted to
bring strike breakers by steamer to the
works, but the rioters lined the banks

JULY WHEAT IS
ADVANCED AGAIN
CROP DAMAGE IN WEST Is
ASCRlBED AS CAUSE
Indirect Result Of Patten Deal Is
FURRY on Chicago Board of
Trade When Shorts Seek
Cover

CHICAGO, July 14.-Wheat for July
delivery advanced seven cents after a
stormy session on the board Of trade
today, establishing new high record
mark for the season, and giving prom
ise of a repetition of the recent deal
headed by James a. Patten and his
colleagues.
The top mark reached today was
SI.27, compared with $120, the closing
figure yesterday.
The Immediate cause Of the advance
was additional damage in the wheat
growing sections. IhuAueIsloIIdS
predicted over wide area through
out the central and western states also
aided the panic movement.
A large sleeping short interest has
existed for some time in the July OPP
ton, and the action Of the market IN
dicated that many of these traders
had awakened to the serious aspect
of the situation.
Leading warehousemen and profess
sional traders are said to be the prln-
cipal shorts The elevator men weeks
ago bought wheat in the field and
"hedged" against their purchases by
selling their purchases in this market
There Is practically no wheat suit
able for delivery on contracts at pres
ent, and what little there is belongs TO
The Patten interests. Patten succeeded
i'm merchandising the grain delivered
to him during the closing days Of the
May corner. and he now demands the
wheat sold to him for this months de-
livery.
When shorts went to him early In
the day with offers of settlement, it is
claimed, they were told to buy the
grain in the pit, The attempt to carry
out this line Of action was the cause
of the seven-cent bulge.

DISPUTES ON TARIFF TO
BE FOUGHT BY LEADERS

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE big
disputes over the tariff bill will be
fought out between Senator Aldrich
and Representative Payne, acting for
the senate and house respectively with
President Taft serving as umpire, so as
TO prevent any drawn battles.
This was decided today by the con-

branches of congress.
No formal action was taken in con-
ference, but after an informal discus
sion it was said that disputed sched-
ules, such as lumber, COAL hides, OIL
iron and similar raw materials could
be best adjusted by the tariff leaders,
who know the tempers Of their respec-
tive houses concerning these disputes.
Of course any decisions reached by
Messrs. Aldrich and Payne will be re-
viewed by the full conference.

 The sudden dash of the chicken and cat startled pony. driven by two lit tie girls, one of whom had poodle in her lap. The poodle jumped out to give chase to the cat and fell on the road right in front of the car, causing it's driver to pull up suddenly
 Just as this happened a collie tray cling with its mistress in the car leap ed out and chased the poodle. which frightened the pony so that it bolted toward the car. Seeing this. the chauf- feur drove toward the gutter, but as the dogs were fighting there he had to take another course. colliding finally wiht a stone wall and totally wrecking the machine
 The owner of the car brought an ac ton for damages against the owner of the chicken. claiming that it was responsible for the damage. In giving judgment the court argued that there was no doubt as to the chicken having been the proximate cause of the acci- dent. for had it not crossed the road the cat would not have scared the pony; had the pony not been scared the poodle would not have got out of the pony trap: had the poodle not done so the automobile would not have stopped and the collie and the poodle would not have been in the gutter: had the collie and poodle not been in the gutter the cat would not have hung round to see things through; had the cat not remained on the scene the chicken would not have been try ing to scale the wall, and had the chicken not been trying to do this the chauffeur would have kept his nerve and saved the machine from accident.

THE VOGUE FOR BLACK VELVET

By one of those curious turns of impossible to account. velvet has quite suddenly returned to favor. in colors of various hues. more or less bril- liant. for evening gowns and mantles. and in black for tailor-made coats and skirts. For those long redingotes which reach almost 10 the hem of the skirt beneath. black velvet will also be greatly in demand.
 It is perhaps because the new black velvets are so rich and silky in tex ture, and yet of so soft and supple a description that they have been welcomed with so much enthusiasm as suitable fabrics for coat and skirt costumes. Tsimmed with very wide black silk braid. these costumes are certainly most effective, and they are being carried out with coats of many different styles and varying lengths. but always with skirts cut quite short for walking
