OFFICIALS ELATED BY THEIR SUCCESS

IXSTAHTIXG UP THE STAR TLANT.

[nr mwnn to the Taiwan.]

Plttsbunr. Auk. UT.-The I.'nlted States SteelCorporatlor officials are much elated over their

success" In Ptartlnß the Star tinplate mill In this

city. It If considered an important Kaln. as

the plant occupies, an exposed position and waa

started and operated as v union plant from Its

inception. To-night the superintendent. ArthurE. Piper, escorted a party of women through

the plant to show them how well It la operating.

He haa two shifts, and expects to have three

crews working regular turns of eipht hours each

before lonp. Th« police guarding the plant say

t!iat fully one hundred men are at work. The

strikers aesert that only forty men are In the

mill. A visit to the Painter's mills shows that

the product turned out Is good.The Ftrikera cannot understand how this can

lip It seems, however, that a roller who has

been under condemnation by The Amalgamated

Association is running the plant. He Is being

tent from one hoop mill to another to arrange

the rolls, and is said to be under a contract to

receive 9A.0Q0 for his share in breaking theStrike. This partly accounts for the manner inwhich the hoop mil's are being operated, as allthe skilled rollers nre known, and none of themhave returned to work.

President Shaffer to-night again denied thatefforts are belrm made by the AmalgamatedAssociation to secure peace under the old condi-tions. The denial was brought about by¦storythat the American Tin Plate Oompany had beenapproached by the Amalgamate.! officials' tosecure ¦settlement, officers of the corporationalso deny any kn iwledge of peace proposals.

TERMS APPROVED BY SHAFFER AND

SENT TO AMALGAMATED EXECU-

TIVE COMMITTEE FOR ACTION.

Pittsburg. Aug. '11.—It was learned late to-

night that President Shaffer has sent out letter.sto all members of the executive committee of

the Amalgamated Association, inviting theirapproval of the peace plan agreed on last Sat-urday by the representatives of the NationalCivic Federation and the Amalgamated Asso-ciation headquarters officials. The plan pro-poses:

First—That the New-York offer of July '11.made by Messrs. Schwab and Morgan. be ac-cepted. This provided that »he tinplate millsresume under the scale signed for the year be-ginning on July 1: that the hoop company signfor all mills signed for last year, and that thesheet steel company sign for all mills signed forlast year, except Old Meadow and Saltsburg.

Second—

That a provisional scale be arranged.but not signed, for Painter's, Lindsay & He-<""utcheon'«, and the Clark mill, leaving recogni-tion of th" union open.

Third—That the T'niteri Plates Steel Corpora-tion formally declare its attitude toward or-ganized labor this declaration to take suchform as will have a reassuring effect on themen in the mills.

President Shaffer assented to these proposi-tions, and is now awaiting the result of a voteby mail. Ifapproved the Civic Federation peo-ple will endaavor to secure an audience withthe ste«>l corporation officials in New-York.

STEEL CORPORATIOX GAINS.

STREET FIGHTS PRECIPITATED BY AT-

TEMPT TO START MILLS—

ERS FINALLY WIN.

Pittsburg. Aug. 27.— one place In this dis-

trict where the strikers have won a victory is

Irondale, Ohio. At this place the American Tin

Plate Company was compelled to done down itsrecently opened plant for lark of men to oper-

ate It.Th* day was full of excitement In the little

village and street fights came thick and fa*t for

a time, until the Inhabitants were wrought Into

a mate of excitement bordering on terror. The

first fight of the morning took place when five

non-union men left their homes and started forwork in the mill. On the main street of thevillage they were met by a party of aboutthirty striker*, who tried by moral suasion toget them to desist from their determination topo to work. When this failed a stronger argu-

ment was uaed and the men were beaten anddriven back to their homes.

The village had scarcely recovered from thesurprise which this atack occasioned when wordwas passed around that a party of new menwere driving overland from Well?vllle. Almost

all the strikers at once started to meet the car-riage, and when they passed the mill office IraHouseholder, a non-union man, shouted at them.This action precipitated a light. Manager Ban-field saved Householder by dragging hlnr insideand shutting the door with difficulty.

The tinplate company then attempted to file

Information before Justice Paisley, charging

the strikers with riot, but the Justice refused to

entertain the charge, saying he would Issue war-rants for those mixed up In the tights, chargingassault, but no more serious offence. The attor-ney then began the preparation of papers to askfor an injunction restraining the striker* fromInterfering with the non-union men in any way.All the men who have been employed In the millJoined the Amalgamated to-day except IraHouseholder and James Hindman.

LABOR LEADER? IK WHEELING SAT AMAL-GAMATED LODGES ARE VOTING ON

A PEACE PLAN.

tsr TFLEc.RArn to m* tribi-m-.IWheeling. W. V;i,. Aug. '11.

—A man connected

with the Federation of Labor and an official in

one of the strongest unions federated with thatbody said to-day that there had been five con-

r( in» os between representatives of the Federa-

tion and the steel corporation since the .lose

of the mine workers' conference at Indianapolis,

which asked President Gompers to call rep-resentatives of federated bodies to meet here.

That meeting; of labor presidents was heldwithin a few days after the coal conference, andsteps were taken to secure a meeting with the

eteel officials. Th.- first conference between thesteel people and the Federation's representativeswas held in Indianapolis. Another conferencewas held in Cleveland, another In New-York,

and another In Pittshurg. Finally, he say?, aplan of settlement was reached which was satis-factory to the steel people, the Federation's rep-resentatives and the Amalgamated Association.This proposition, he says, i- now being voted onby the lodges of the Amalgamated Association.Itis a compromise, an.i gives the AmalgamatedAssociation a slight advantage over what thesteel people last offered, the union getting ashowing In mills that have been unionized sincethe strike began.

This information eras also given by a memberof Mountain City Lodge, of the AmalgamatedAssociation, in this district, this evening. Hesaid his lodge voted to accept the propositionlast night, and it was expected that the strikewould be settled within ten days.

TUBE WORKERS IN TROUBLE.

THEIR SYMPATHY STRIKE INVIOLATIONOF

THE FEDERATION OF LABOR'SCONSTITUTION.

Pittsburg, Aug. 27.—

According to the reportsfrom the organised tube workers who are strik-ing In sympathy with the Amalgamated Associa-tion, they are in trouble for the hasty actionthey took in walking out of the plants of theNational Tube Company without the formality

of submitting their cause to the genera] officersof the American Federation of Labor. It hasbeen discovered, so the men nay that they haveviolated the constitution of the Federation, whichprovides that lief..re going on strike a local lodgeholding a charter direct from the American Fed-eration of Labor must submit a list of griev-

ances to the executive council of the Fedf-ratlonfor approval. Failure to do this cuts off th«striking lodge from all strike benefits from theFederation or from other allied trades unions.

Most of the tube workers struck without thisformality To settle the strike now they haveno general officers to act for them, and only th>-various lodge ofllcers ran act In matters pertain-ing to peace. An appeal is to be made to Presi-dent Shaffer of the Amalgamated Association totake a hand in any settlement for the tube work-ers that may be made, It is said, however, thatit will not be possible for this to be done, axPresident Shaffer cannot act for any other bodythan his own. The position of the tube workersis attracting considerable attention, and manyof the men, while declaring thai they will stayout as long as the Amalgamated men do, aremaking no secret of tht-lr perplexity regardingthe ultimate outcome of their strike A move-ment is on foot, it Is said, to form a nationalbody of tube workers.

IF SO, YOU RESEMBLE THOUSANDS OF

YOUR FELLOW NEW-YORKERS

JUST NOW.

Ifyou happen to meet a friend these days withwatering eyes and red nose, don't greet him with"Sorry, old man; what misfortune has befallenyou?" He may simply be a victim of hay fever.There Is just now an unusual prevalence of thisdisease, for this time of year, among New-Yorke-rs, amounting almost to an epidemic. Th*various clinics about the city are besieged everyday by hundreds of poor people afflicted with th*ailment, and In the elevated and surface carsand along the streets there Is a continual sneez-ing and snuffling, while the drugstores are do-Ing a land office business hi various patentremedies for coughs, colds and hay fever.

Th« prevalence of the trouble Is attributedpartly to the recent sudder> changes In the tem-perature, and to the Indiscretion of people In thenature of their dr*s^. Most New-Yorkers areaccustomed 111 wearing th» same kind of clothingthroughout the summer months, and give littlethought to the necessity nf changing their wear-Ing apparel to suit climatic conditions. Pr. S. A.Brown, head of the medical department of Belle-vue clinic, said to a Tribune reporter yesterday:

"There has been in the last few days an alarm-ing increase of hay fever. Many cases arebrought here by persons who are returning fromvacations In parts of the country where hay Isbeing harvested. Then th* od"rs of differentkinds of fruit ar» likely to Induce the fever. Oneof my acquaintances contracts the dis«*as» everytime he gets -* whiff of pineapple. We alwayssuggest a change of residence, which frequently

gives more re!-, than ail the medicine we- canrecommend. But It is expensive and Inconven-lent for many people to move, and they mustbear with the disease until It runs Its course.

"Ihave seen ro evidences of Influenza. People

have iihabit of calling any kind of cold influ-enza Itis too early now for grip. Som*» yearswe get the grip as early as October, but usuallynot until December. A good deal depends on theclimatic conditions that exist up to that time.

"Colds contracted In the summer are hard toshake off They are stubborn and do not re-spond to medical treatment. Quinine, th* mosteffective remedy, cannot be used, as It Inducesperspiration, which Is likely to aggravate thecold rather than cure It."

AMERICANTIN PLATE COMPANY TO CUT'LOOSE FROM IMOX LABOR.

Pittsburg. Aug. '_'"—Practically the only sig-nificant occurrence in the strike to-day was thepositive Stand taken by the American Tin PlateCompany in reference to its course in the future.An official statement from this company to-day

denies that there are any negotiations on footlooking to a settlement of the strike, and d<*.flares that mill* put in operation during thestrike will be continued non-union, and all menfining to work now will be retained in theirplaces. This statement willhave Its effect, be-cause the tlnplate trade has always been con-sidered among the strongholds of the Amalga-mated Association, and the defiance appears tohave be*>n brought about by the association de-claring a strike against the tinplate companyafter th» scale for the year had been signed.Notwithstanding the fact that the Amalgamatedpeople say they are Justified on the ground thattheir constitution provides for such procedure,the officials of the tinplate company consider theaction a breach of trust, and declare that hence-forth they ar» determined to cut loose fromunion labor entirely. The association officialstreat the threat with indifference, their only re-ply being that the company cannot carry out itsplan because nearly all the skilled tin workersof the country are members of the association,

and the plants cannot be run without them. Thecorporation, however, has started several of theplants in a way. and says that all men necessaryare within reach to operate them in full, as soonas the machinery hi In proper shape.

The developments of the day would appear ti>show slow but cure gains by the corporation.

The following summary sives the status inthis district:

Painter's Mill—Six mills being operated, andmanagement says plenty of good material isbeing turned out.

Star Mil: Men still at wcrk on two mills;i.o more men have entered the plant; thirdturn may 1>» put on at midnight.

Lindsay & Mc-Cutch<-on mill—Several men se-cured; two mills open with separate crews.

DENIES THAT AMALGAMATED MEN HAVE

BROKEN CONTRACTS.

Plttsburp. Auk. -President T. J. Shaffer

addressed the strikers of Painter's mills at a

rally held on the South Side to-nl3rht. In hisspeech he undertook to refute the charge that

the Amalgamated Association had violated Its

contracts with constituent companies of the

United States Steel Corporation."The Amalgamated Association has not

broken Its contract, and cannot afford to do so.Surh charges are as malicious an they arefalse." declared Mr. Shaffer. "It Is true." said

he. "that pom* scales were slpn^d this year, butthey were signed by the companies on the condi-tion that other companies of the United StatesSteel Corporation would sign. Thin was thecase with the American Tin Mate Company."

The other companies did not «1«:n. he said, andconsequently the Amalgamated men broke nocontracts by striking. Continuing, Pre-nldent.Shaffer paid:

While at work we faithfully adhere to everypart of our contract. We are ready to go towork now Ifour right to organize Is recog-nized.

If the United States Steel Corporation willplgn the scale for all mills signed for la«t year,with the understanding that no man Is to hedischarged for connection or sympathy withlabor organizations and If the scale is signedfor mills where the men want to organize thestrike will be terminated.

morning from Bar Harbor, after an absence ofthree WMfcS. He spent most of the day in confer-ence v.lth his partners. President C. M. Bchwabof the United States Steel Corporation talked withMr. Morgan In the afternoon.

One of the banker's associates said he felt surethat Mr Morgan would take no hand In the steelutrlk*- unless th« representatives of the strikerssignified their willingness to recede from theirposition. Mr. Morgan and his partners are Baldto be of the opinion that the strike Is practicallysettled.

An officer of the United States Steel Corporationyesterday said:

"The report that we ire negotiating for a settle-ment of the steel strike Is erroneous. The frilledFtates Steel Corporation ha.? received no proposalsfor a settlement, and has made none. Many ofour men are returning to work, and many othersare desirous of. resuming their places. The strikecan be settled only by the return of the men totheir -places."- . -
