STEEL SITUATION
 REMAINS UNCHANGED
Twelfth Day of Conflict Sees Condi- tOnS About the Same-USual
 Conflicting Reports.
(By Associated Press.D

The 12th day of the steel strike opened today With virtually no change in the situation at the steel produc- ing districts Both employers and strikers were apparently holding firm pending result of the investigation being conducted by the labor com- mittee in Washington.
 Employers in the Chicago and Youngstown districts reported more men returning to work but strike leaders disputed these claims and in sisted the strikers were remaining loyal. The only change in the situa- ton at Bethlehem was the announce ment by union leaders that bricklay- CTS and platerers had walked out in sympathy with the steel workers.
 From the Pittsburgh district, came reports of plans of employers to at tempt to open shops now closed down beginning Monday in an effort to cause a break in the strikers ranks. The chief interest there was the union leaders battle to obtain what they termed "the right of free speech and free assemblage." Conflict of authority between county and muni- cipal authorities they say has prevent ed them from holding meetings of strikers in various localities.
 At Washington the senate commit tee was hearing the testimony of union leaders, President Michael Tighe of the iron, steel and tin work ers' union testified the unions were fighting for the "union shop" not the "closed shop" as claimed by Judge Gary He denied that the effect was the same in each case. Wm. Z. Eos ter, secretary of the strikers com mittee was expected to be the next witness. Senators were prepared to question him on radical views ex pressed in a book called 'syndical- ism" which he published several years ago.

PIG IRON AND
 STEE:L. l. MARKETS

Buying has been checked but not suspended by the iron and steel strike. Bookings are chiefly with the furnaces and mills not seriously af- fccted
 The continued favorable progress of the strike is all that the producers expected. Where protection is suffi cient to prevent intimidation, work CTS are returning. Much encouragement is taken from the refusal of the Bethle hem employees to go out and from the conditions in the pivotal Monongah hela valley. The continued absence of marked rioting, usually a sign of col lapse, points to a drawn out issue.
 Following the 3O,O0 tons of basic iron reported last week, the American Bridge Go. has closed on 15,000 tons more. The basic market is now strong CT at $1 per ton above the basis of these sales. Fresh inquiries for about 10000 tons of foundry iron for next year have appeared in New England. The middle west is taking iron from western Pennsylvania, involving an added freight cost
 Plate mills willing to take on fur ther commitments have no difficulty in getting 2.65c., Pittsburgh, though 2.55c. was quoted on 4SO0 tons for Japan.
 The scarcity of steel bars, for months in demand, is putting activity in bar irOn and advances for prompt shipment are not unlikely
 Producers remain firm in their de- termination to shut down mills if it is not safe to run them, and consumers are expressing an unqualified support. It remains that without relief in 30 days the automobile industry will be- gin to feel the pinch.
 Prompt blast furnace coke is lower due to an accumulation at ovens.

MILK PRICES TO REMAIN
Head of Producers Association Can See No Way Clear for Providing Milk at a Cheaper Rate Now.

Hartford, Oct. 3.--Edmund Hudson of the Connecticut Milk Producers association believes local milk prices will stay where they are for a while. He takes issue with New York milk producers who say they can furnish the metropolis with 8 cent milk
 Most Connecticut farmers receive 10 cents a quart and dealers charge an average of Is cents. There are in stances, he said, where 15 cents is the price and even IA cents, but at these prices milk was not of good quality. Hartford used about 0,OO0 quarters of milk daily, MT. Hudson said. and most of it is purchased for 16 cents by the public. Some fam ilies however, are paying 23 cents a quart. One West Hartford dealer sells for that price. Another dealer gets 20 cents. MT. Hudson said there have been some slight decreases in the price of feed but until further decrease are made there will be no possibility of a cut in milk prices.

The summary process case of Aba Edelson against E. DingWeu was heard in city court this morning be- fore Judge James T. Meskill. Lawyer Henry NoWickj appeared for the plaintiff, and the defendant presented his own case.

It was necessary to have a summary process issued, and Constable George A. Stark served one DingWeu said that the conditions at the house were such that he would not live there, if the rent situation in this city did not compel him to. He said these con- ditions were such that the attention of the board of health should be called to them. He formerly paid $15 a month rent and Edelson jumped it Up on him without notifying him, he said. DingWell said that at several places he has tried to rent a tenement, but he was unsuccessful because he has three children. He did admit he did not care to reside north of the railroad track.

MORE MONEY NEEDED
Fees for Building Permits Are to Be Increased for Upl>ecp of Depart mcnt, It Is Announced.

The city's building department is not getting sufficient funds for the proper upkeep of the office of build- ing inspector, according to Building Inspector John w. Allen. Among the things that the office is badly in need of, he says, is a, steel cabinet for the filing of building blueprints. Just at present there is a pile of them upon Mr. Aliens desk, as there is no other place to put them.
 Statistics show that within the past three years fees for permits have not reached $1,2OO. In 1916 the amount received was $1,149; in 1917 the figure was $1,219; but in 1918 only $825 was realized from permits The upkeep of the office costs about $3, 800 year, including the inspec- tors salary of $2,750. From this it can be seen there is need for greater revenue from permits. It is for this reason that Building Inspector Allen has requested Corporation Counsel J. E. Cooper to prepare an ordinance to remedy the situation by providing for an increase in the charge for building permits. This ordinance which will be brought up for action at the next meeting of the common council, provides that the fee for re- pairs or alterations costing from $50 to $1,000 shall be $1, and for each $1,000 and fraction, the cost is to in crease $1. The fee for moving build ings is to be $5, unless the building is going to be moved through the streets, when the fee will be $25 The ordinance committee was to have met last evening, but a meeting will be held later.

Breathe HyOmei for Two Minutes and
 Relieve Stuffed Up Head.
 If you want to get relief from ca tarrh, cold in the head or from an irritating cough in the shortest time breathe Hvomei.
 It should clean out your head and open up your nose in two minutes and allow you to breathe freely.
 Hycmei often ends a cold in one day, and brings quick relief from snuffles, hard crusts in the nose, hawking, splitting and catarrhal mu- GUS.
 Hyomei is made chiefly from soothing, healing antiseptic oil, that comes from the eucalyptus forests of inland Australia, wher~ Catarrh, Asthma, Bronchitis, TonsiI-tag, Inf1u- enza, Pneumonia and Coi umption were never known to exist.
 Hyomei is pleasant and easy to breathe. Just pour a few drops into the hard rubber inhaler, use as di- rected and relief is almost certain.
 A complete Hyomei outfit, including inhaler and one bottle of TTyomei costs but little at The Clark & Brain erd Co.,, and druggists everywhere. If you already own an inhaler you can get an extra bottle of Hyomei at druggists -advt.
