Both Sides Claim Victory.

Chicago, Sept. 30-Both strikers
and steel companies in the Chicago
district claim victory in a test of
strength. The day was looked for
as a crisis In the strike, and picket
forces were trlpled by the union heads
in an effort to dissuade workers from
returning TO the plants which. 1t was
believed, would attempt to resume OPP
eratlons on general scale.
A number of men went to work at
the Indiana steel mills In Gary In adj
dition to those who have been shell
tered within the works since the
strike began. An official stated that
the new arrivals made a substantial
increase in the aggregate number of
workers Strike headquarters gave
out a different story, leaders there
asserting that fewer men went through
the gates than on any day last week.
Fewer than fifty men appeared for
work at the plant Of the Illinois Steel
company, is was said. A group of
twenty gained entrance at the Seth
street gate by appearing with picket

May Get the Worst of the
Great Steel Strike.
SENATE STARTS AN INQUIRY
Many Workers Said to Be Returning

Treaty Contest-D'Annunzio's
Raid Precipltates Crisis
In Italy.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

Developments of the week in the
great strike of steel workers indicated
that this, perhaps the severest test to
which union labor In America ever has
subjected itself, would result adverse
ly to the unions.
At the beginning many thousands of
men in the United States Steel corpor-
throughout the country quit work, re-
CARELESS of whether or not they were
members of the unions. w. q. Foster,
general organizer, claimed that 342,-
300 had gone out before the week was
half over. This was not directly dis
puted by the corporation officials, but
they declared the tide already had
turned and that the men were coming
back to the mills in large numbers
seeking their OLD jobs. A great many
of the plants were closed down at the
beginning of the week, but In some of
the districts these were being reopened
gradually with increasing forces of
workers. In the Pittsburgh district
the employers asserted they were in
creasing production In all the impor-
tant plants; the Gary and Indiana
Harbor mills resumed partial opera
ton; the strikers at Canton, o., and
Birmingham, returned to work. On
the other hand there was virtually a
complete tie-up In the Mahoning val
ley, the Colorado district and at other
points.
Though the union officials had de-
clared the strike would be conducted
without violence on the part of the
men, rioting started promptly in some
regions, especially in Pennsylvania
Several deaths and many injuries re-
suited. The state constabulary got
into action promptly and effectively,
breaking up all assemblages and in
general restoring order. Sabotage was
In evidence In various plants.
The strike leaders were earnestly
endeavoring to expand the strike into
a walkout of allied crafts. which in
clude the men In 25 unions. On the
Great Lakes 1t appeared likely the sea-
men and marine firemen who trans
port iron ore would go out, and switch
men on railroads that especially serve
steel plants were reported to be ready
to quit.

Police Flee In Cars.

The strikers sent 500 of their num-
Der to board the cars at Twelfth
street so the workers could not get
out. The police called for a special
car, which backed in, and the work
ers got away safely
Then Charles Bairstow, one of the
special deputies, who In private life
is coal merchant, became excited and
let his auto plunge into the midst of
the strikers. There was n wild scram-
BILE of women and children, but all es-
capped injury
Kill him! XIII him !" was the cry
in an instant
BairstOw sped away in his car.
Then the 1000 leaped upon the of
ticers, stoned them and tore the stars
off some. The deputies piled into their
cars and sped away. The last ones
had to draw their revolvers and force
Il passage.
The strikers started for the city,
threatening to burn down Balrstow's
house. The merchants of the city, fear
ing a general conflagration, called n
meeting to demand that state troops
