day's meeting that It wan not a precon
certed ono, "but Just happened." Presi
dent Mitchell, ho sold, had telegraphed him
that he would llko to see him today on his
way home trom the eastern coal fields and
soon after his arrival the other gentlemen
mado their appenrance. During tho meet
ing, however, tho whole strlko sltuatfon
was discussed. Thero was nothing of Im
portance accomplished. Mr. 8haffer said
no arrangement had been mado to submit
a now peace proposition to tho corpora
tion or a lurther proposal for arbitration,
adding that ho did not kuow what Indi
vidual notion tho conferees might tnko In
the future. No mention was mode of the
miners or other trades taking sympnthetlo

means to bring this about would not be
discussed by any of today's confereos.

An Interesting rumor roportcd from New
York today was that circular letters had
been sent to alt of tho presidents of labor
unions by the Amalgamated association
asking what each would or could do to
assist the steel workers In their strike.
One of the replies, It Is said, was received
from P. M. Arthur, head of tho Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, It is al
leged that In this reply President Arthur
said his organization held contracts with
tho vnplous railroads; that they also were
bound to move tho United States mall and
that organization could make no distinc
tion between tho United Slates Steel cor
poration and individual shippers.
