RAILWAY STRIKE
 TIES UP SHIPPING
Vessels Consigned to United Kingdom Held Up By the British Walkout-C Congestion is Serious.

Washington, Sept. 29 Shipping in American ports, so far as it concerns shipping aboard vessels with cargoes consigned to ports of the United Kingdom, was at standstill tonight because of the strike of British rail- way workers.
 Suspension of the sailings of all vessels under it's control to ports Of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales was announced today by the shipping board through the making public of an order issued late Saturday night when the railroad strike became a certainty.
 The shipping board, it was ex- plained, ordered sailings suspended following receipt of information from it's representatives in England as to conditions in the ports there and after the issuance of the British order prohibiting the furnishing of bunker coal to any ships other than outbound British vessels.
 While shipping board vessels allo- cated to the United Kingdom trade 1! !constitute only about one-half of the American tonnage engaged in that |trade, the congestionQof of ports result | ing from the strike and the British
 bunker coal order are expected to
 stop eventually, should the strike con
 tinue, the sailings of all American Icraft to the British Isles.
 1 Shipping board officials refused to
 comment on the effect the suspensions
 would have on the gradual accumpla-
 tion and resultant congestion of goods
 at Atlantic and gulf ports and the
 railroad centers. It was said that
 aspect of the situation would be dealt
 with when it arose.

LEGISLATURE WILL
 ADJOURN TOMORROW

The legislature will adjourn at noon tomorrow. The last few days have been devoted to a general scramble, particularly in the House, to clear the calendar of the mass of pending measures. General bills, of which there is an exceedingly small number, receive little recognition, and are frequently killed in the second house in which they are read. There has been an unprecedented crush of bills, a total of 198 having been introduced in the House in six days, and nearly all of them will become laws.

NO BREAK SHOWN
 IN STEEL STRIKE
Company Officials, However, Made Several Attempts to Get Men to Resume Work
 Strike Leaders Satisfied.

Results of the great offensive and counter offensive scheduled to usher in the second week of the steel strike, by means of which both capital and labor hoped to break the deadlock de- |veloped after the first few days, last might remained in doubt.
 In the Pittsburgh and Chicago sections-the strategic points of the industrial front both sides made de- |termined efforts to push forward, one with the hope of resuming full opera tion, the other of crippling more plants. The chief struggle, however, was waged for control in the mills lof the Bethlehem Steel Company, whose 10000 employees had been commanded by union leaders to join the ranks of the strikers.
 Here are the reports issued from rival headquarters dealing with the Bethlehem objective:
 "The employees reported to work this morning in such numbers as to provide for practically full opera tion of all plants. E. G. Grace, pres ident of the Bethlehem Steel Com pany.
 "Charles M Schwab's big plant at Bethlehem completely crippled. Will liam 2. Foster, secretary of the strik- CTS, national committee Elsewhere results of the days eco homie battle were equally obscured by conflicting claims. The independ- ent plant of Jones and Loughlin com pany, in Pittsburgh, is fifty per cent out of action," according to Foster, but according to company officials it lis little affected The Carnegie Steel company and other concerns in the crucial Pittsburgh salient claimed men were returning "in goodly num- bers" while unionists heralded failure of the United States Steel to "stam- pede'' their forces.
 The Weirton Steel Company sus- pended operation at it's plant in Clarksburg, w. Va, posting notices that the mills would be closed indef- Initely for repairs. This shutdown was characterized by labor leaders as q lockout.
 l Pittsburgh, Sept. 29 A break in the ranks of the steel strikers, pre- dicted by some of the corporations was not in evidence today, according to reports received from different sources. No claims were made by steel companies of large defections among the strikers, but a number of them, including the Carnegie Steel Company and the American Steel and Wire Company, did insist that men continue to return to work. No fig. ures were given.
 Leaders at strike headquarters ex-
 pressed satisfaction at what they
 claimed to be the failure of the
 United States Steel corporation te
