dependent companies, made but hltie
Roadway in Pittsburgh and other east

such as from Birmingham, where union
leaders claimed 1900 men were out
and plant officials asserted there was
such a surplus of labor that hundreds
of men we're set to sweeping floors TOT
lack of other tasks.
In the Chicago district, where union
leaders claimed an additional lO,OOo
men had gone out, more steel plants
were closed in South Chicago and IN
dian Harbor, although at the latter
Mace officials Of an independent ex-
nlained their shut down had been or
dered merely to avoid responsibility
for industrial warfare. Monday only

In East Chicago and five independent
mills in Hammond attempted opera
tion.
In the Youngstown district proper
strikers achieved their most marked
success, causing complete suspension
of work in every plant on the Mahon
IN Valley by calling $4,000 men ava,
from their places.
Union leaders heralded a spread o
the strike, declaring that wherea
only $4,000 of the half million work
ers affected had mached out OF tn
mills on the opening day, their rank
now numbered S27,1OO. They predic
the closing of many more plants, an
announced they hoped to extend tn
strikes to Great Lakes seamen an
union trainmen.
Industrial leaders, while withhold
ing their own figures, challenged ID
claims OF labors leaders. Represel
tatives of the Carnegie company, tn
largest subsidiary of the United state
Steel Corporation, declared that u
situation was much improved" a
estimate was made that in the Pitt
burgh district alone $1,000 men ma
returned to vat and furnace.
The second day Of the struggle WI
marked by ugly rioting. Monday
disorders in Newcastle and Fare

casualties, so that additional humble

THROWN FROM CAR; BABY HURT.
Little Daughter of Or. and Mrs. Ham
ilton Has Marrow Escape.

What might have proved "A fatal ac-
cident to Sally, the months old
daughter of Dr. and Mrs. w. f. Hamll-
ton, occurred when the child was
thrown bodily from her fathers car
while DR.. Hamilton was rounding the
corner of State and Thirteenth street.
The child was sitting on q small chair
in the car, and. it is presumed that
while playing with the handle OF the
cars door, she loosened it. While DR..
Hamilton was driving rapidly around
the corner the swing # the car threw
open the door and the child was hLrl-
ed into the street.
She struck in the street car track
and was rendered unconscious. Both
parents thought the child dead. but
she gasped and began crying when her
father picked her up. Some OF her
teeth had been knocked out, her mouth
was cut and her face and body were
badly bruised. None OF the injuries
will, it is believed prove serious, altho
the child win have to do without some
baby teeth.
