CONFERENCE TO

STRIKE ON TODAY

Pittsburgh, Feb. To-day is arbi-
tration day in Rankin and Braddock
where $500 American Steel & Wire
Workers have been out for a week.
While citizens, strikers and steel Of
hcia1s were arranging for negotiations,
there were several developmen that
make peaceful settlement at today's
conference doubtful.
Rodmen, who have been joining the
union during the last few days, were
to meet to discuss the wage increase
announc ed by the company.
Federation Organizer Flynn assert
ed that the wage increase was a Joke
and would be found to be no increase
for most of the men.
William P. Palmer, president of the
American Steel & Wire Company, as
serted the eompany's determination
not to deal with the union leaders,
adding that the worknen will have
to determine whether they want TO
work for US or for labor agitators.''
The men were expected to deter
mine the reinstatement of all strikers
at today's conference. Tt was believed
the company would not consent to
this.
estate police will be called if an
other shot is fired in Rankin de-
clared Sheriff Bruff.
Rankin citizens, today, organized a
band of deputies, not legally deputized
but pledged to assist in keeping order.
Secretary Morrison, of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, was to take
charge of the strike, today.

Old Charge of
Murder Is Revived.

DALTON, Oct. 21-Suspicions of
murder once held against Ira w. Fish
er are to be brought up once again
in new investigation as a result of
Fishers activity in the Frank case.
Years ago Fisher was a witness in
a whisky case in Superior Court here
and Judge G. G. Glenn. representing
the defense, impeached him Twelve
or fifteen of the countys most re-
sponsible citizens swore on the stand
that they would not believe Fisher on
oath Fisher left here soon after the
death Of his brother n-law, Dug
Steele.

smile.
It's just a question of whether he
ought to be in the penitentiary or the
madhouse"
Explaining his acquaintanceship
with Fisher he added:
Il first knew Fisher in 1911, when
he moved next door to my shop here.
He came over here and l sold him,
on time, a large quantity of furniture,
He fooled around about the bill, did
little work and much drinking, and
finally In 1912 | went over and told
him ! would have to bring the furni-
ture back to my place.
His wife came to me and said that
If l would change the account to her,
she would pay the bin. She said that
if she paid it and left the furniture IN
her husbands name he would steal it
and sell 1t to buy whisky"
