Discussed by Strikers

Pittsburgh, June 15.-Striking en-
ployes of the Westinghouse companies
in the Turtle Creek valley were astir
early to-day discussing the position of
their employers as outlined in a state
ment given out this morning. The
statement, signed by the electric and
manufacturing company, machine
company Union Switch and Signal
Company and the Pittsburgh Meter
Company, declares that all shops shall
be open to union and nonunion men
alike; that the pay of skilled and pro-
ductive employees shall not be regu-
lated by the pay of the inefficient and
less productive; that every worker has
the right of conference with the man
agement; that every shop shall be
safe. sanitary and comfortable, and
that suggestions from employees for
Improvement in shop conditions will
be welcomed.
1t was the opinion of thousands of
strikers gathered in the streets that
the companies position did not meet
their demands and action by the strike
leaders was impatiently awaited.

Veterans Full of War Talk
Among the hundreds of veterans

revcrently placed in their resting places
under the dome of the Capitol of the
State whose name they honored on the
field of battle. And they were full of
war talk. There were scores of remi-
niscences of bloody battlefelds in
quiries after comrades long passed
away, clasping of hands that hadn't
touched for many a year.
The veterans began arriving last
night and all morning the trains
brought them in. The adjutant gen.

with veterans who came to convey
their respects. The morning was
mostly spent seeing the sights of the

pennsylvania will officially observe
the day set apart to honor the flag to-
day by ceremonious transfer of $50
battle flags from the State Museum to
the rotunda of the State Capitol and
il is doubtful if the exercises of the
day have ever been paralleled in the
country. The flags arc those which
led Pennsylvania organizations in the
four years of the Civil War and which
tloated above the headquarters tents
of the States organizations in United
States service during the Spanish War.
Among the flags is that of the First
Defenders the organization which
was first to respond to the call of
Lincoln in 1861; the flags of the his
toric 'Bucktails," of Pennsylvania
Reserves and of famous cavalry regi-
ments. The 51st Regiment, which was
11artranft's command, has the largest
representation. flags and markers.
The flag of the Fighting Tenth" of
Philippine fame and of the Pennsyl-
Vania artillery in Porto Rico will be
carried too.
Practically every flag will be borne
by a survivor of the organization
which it led and in a number of in
stances the men who were color bear
crS in the wars will bear them. For
many it will be the last march behind
the flag and the closing ceremony on
Capitol Hill few hours before sunset
to-day will be a trooping of the colors
such has not been seen in Pennsyl-
Vania since July 4, 1866, when the
warriors of the Keystone State gath
cred at Philadelphia and gave into the
keeping of Governor Andrew @. Curtin
as representative of the Common
wealth the flags which they had fol-
lowed in the Civil War.
In honor of the ceremony to-day is
holiday in Harrisburg and the State
has furnished funds for the transpor-
tation of the color bearers to the
State Capitol for their last service with
the flags. Many men of prominence
in the service of Pennsylvania in the
two wars will be here to see the flags
go by.
The States Flags
The collection of battle flags is said
to be the largest of any State in the
Union and since 1866 there have been
steady additions. Over 500 are regi-
mental flags, some being so torn by
battle and weather that but little is
left. All of the flags have been
sheathed in transparent silk netting,
which Will preserve them. These flags
are among the priced possessions of
the State. Until 1894 they were kept
in the old brick Capitol, which was
burned three years later. After 1894

where they have been ranged in great
cases beside Rothermel's great paint
ing of the Battle of Gettysburg and
surrounded by portraits of war and
relics of the Rebellion. When the
Capitol was built inches were left for
statuary and it was decided to utilize
those on the first floor for the flags.
They have been surrounded with
bronze work and faced with glass.

Just as an indication of how dis

strenuous of campaigns it may be
stated that in Philadelphia B. Cor

in Harrisburg Democrats are quarrel
ing whether Howard Jones or George
A. Werner shall be chairman of the
Democratic city committee.
The head that assumes to boss the
Democrats in this State, county and
city will always be uneasy. Many able
men have found that out and there
are men living who have gray hairs as
a result of their experiences with the
bellicose minority party. The State
machine has been built up with great
care and all manner of assistance
from national and State Democrats
and yet it seems to have failed to get
away with its platform making. The
city machine has been constructed on
solid financial basis and it appears
to have weak points, too.
