Conference Quiet,
But Impressive
Labor Men Look Grim,
the Employers Serious,
at the First Session

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.--The league
of the Latins is in the air of the Pan
American Building, where the Presi-
dents National Industrial Conference
began its sessions to-day. The visitor
enters the stately building to find him
by the soft falling of water from a
beautiful fountain, and now and then
by the rasping cry of the quintet OF
macaws that live there among the
palms-huge palms that tempt to ease
and laziness.
Up broad stairways the visitor goes
to broad balconies, thence TO the CON
ference hall. The hall will accomo-
date something under a thousand. 1t
was in state array to-day
At one end little platform with
a plain little speakers desk and with
plain, square chairs. Just in front
Of the platform are the present tables
never enough, though to-day there
were seats for half hundred writer's.
No Round Table Affair
Gold chairs, placed in long rows
close together, came next for the dele
gates, gathered from all corners O
the nation. Rows of gold chairs, close
together-very close together-leave
no chance to call the conference a
round table affair. About eight rows
deep the delegates sit, aisles separat-
ing each Of the three major groups.
At the right ere the employers. In
the centre are the representatives o.
the public. At the left is labor.
The grouping is after the European
parliamentary system. where the
conservatives occupy the right, the
moderates the centre and the radicals
the left. This brings Mr.. Gary and Mr.
Rockefeller in the centre among what
in Europe would be the moderates, and
it puts Samuel Gompers and his col
leagues in the category of radicals.

Leaders Make Secret
Steel Strike Report
To Il. F.. of L. Council

WASHINGTON. Oct 6.-Reports from
representatives of unions engaged in the
steel strike were heard tonight at the
quarterly meeting here of the executive
council Of the American Federation of
Labor.
Representatives of the steel unions
refused to discuss the report they had
made to the executive council, and after
their meeting with the council said any
statement must come from the council.
President Gompers and Secretary Nor
rison of the Federation of Labor re-
fused to discuss the meeting when the
session adjourned at midnight
The steel union officials spent three
hours with the executive council, and
later announced they would hold sepa-
rate meeting here tomorrow The ex-
ecutive council, it was said, also would
meet again, probably tomorrow night, in
event there is no meeting at that time of
the industrial conference, to which sew
eral members of the council are dele
gates.

ed to sit with the labor group. Mr..
Gar and Mr.. Rockefeller remained
moderate to the end.
Labor Delegates Are Grim
The Indian face was on the labor
delegation when it filed in to take it's
place few minutes before the gavel
tell. There was a seriousness. per-
haps a grimness--somet ething that tells
of the willingness either to work hard
or fight hard, as the situation may
demand, but that sees ahead no easy
task, whatever may befall.
over to the right, among the en-
ployers, there was seriousness, too,
but not that sameness of expression
that masked the faces of the labor
men, In the centre the group of pub
lie representatives occupied about as
much space as the other two combined.
All types of men were there. Judge
Gary, gray of hair, looking not bit
a great fighter of dramatic battles, sat
not far from Mr.. Rockefeller. Not far
from both was Ida NJ Tarbell, old-tim .
foe of Standard Oil.
Three PAGES away from Gary, in
whose mills there is fierce conflict, sat
the powerful men of the labor move
ment. The judge looked over toward
the left as the names of the labor men
were read in rollcall. He picked out
each one as he answered to his name.
Evidently he didn't know them all and
was cataloguing them against the time
not far hence when he will be discuss
ing with them in the conference the
industrial ills of America.
Delegates Very Cautious
During the recess delegates milled
around the corridors and around the
balcony, many of them acting much
like strangers in strange land, un-
certain of it's customs and require
ments. They asked each other what
they were going to do and told each
other they didn't know. They re-
newed acquaintance with friends of old
and were happy to inform the news-
paper men that it was a rainy day, but
THAT they hadn't anything to say for
publication about the business in hand.

loquacious enough. They pointed TO

be resumed until the parliamentary
situation in the Senate with regard to
the peace treaty permits tue me.np pcr3
of the committee to go to Pittsburgh
to continue the public hearings.
Senator Kenyon, of Io> a, chairman
of the committee, made no effort o-day
to speed up the inquiry. He said to-
day that he did not know when the in
vestigation would be resumed. Senator
Lodge, the Republican leader, returned
to Washington tonight, and Senator
Kenyon will confer with him to-mor-
row in an effort to secure an agree
ment that no votes will be taken on
treaty matters until the end of the
week. If the agreement can be
reached, he said, the committee will 20
to Pittsburgh without further delay
and hear the testimony of strikers and
non-strikers and investigate living
conditions in the steel districts Of
western Pennsylvania.
Unless definite assurances are given
that no important moves will be made
by either side in the treaty fight, Sena-

we're impaired, by the return of timid

OF the shifting movement going on

The Clarion Situation
The Carnegie Company admitted an
error IN It's statement last night that
the Cialrton mills were again on q
normal basis. The exact facts as now
stated are that one blast furnace out
OF three Is running, five open-hearth
furnaces out OF eleven ordinarily in
use, the blooming mill and three

product coke ovens at S5 per cent.

also was Helen Marot, frankly sceptica
of it all.
If the gathering was impressive II
any sense-and it surely was-persap.
it was partly because of the plainnes
of attire everywhere. In all the seen,
there was not an obviously rich sui

chairs and in the plain chairs, eac

red rope, each in his own mood, eac
with his own vast wonderment, eac
with his resolves, and perhaps eac
with his own little package of hig
explosives-so to speak-tucked unde
his arm ready for the moment whe
somebody sticks an idea over the to

ing gamely into the unknown after tn

All Plants Now Running
Effort at Resumption Not
Made in Ohio, Where
the Strikers Are Armed
BY Theodore M. Knappen


PITTSBURGH, Penn, Oct. 6.-With
mounted police and deputy sheriffs re-
lentlessly maintaining order, the
steel companies made a new forward
move in the Pittsburgh district this
morning, when five plants at Mones-
sen and one at Donora, closed for two
weeks, resumed operation in some de-
gree. Hundreds of workmen, most of
them not strikers but men whom the
strike had forced into idleness, poured
into the mills in The early dawn
while the state police gathered up
twenty pickets and few harmless
shots were fired at streetcar.
At Youngstown, Ohio, and through
out the Shenango Valley, however, the
pail of the strike remained on all the
mills, and the strikers still grip the
situation at Johnstown, so far as the
Cambria plant is concerned, and the
Lorain plant is still somewhat below
normal. At Weirton, w. Va, the
Weirton Steel Company made some
progress.
Cease to Fear Disorderly
The resumption of operations al
Monessen and Donora does not indicate
that the strike is broken at those
places: All it shows is that there are
enough men willing to work to give the
companies a start and that the com
munity feels that the police have the
drop on the disorderly element.
The Carnegie Company is willing te
start at its Youngstown plant, but is
waiting for the independents there tc
take the lead, and they do not feel thai
the time is ripe yet. The strikers are
in an ugly mood, and, with no state
