puted by the corporation officials, but
tbey declared the tide already had
tirnod and that rhe men were coming
i tack to the mills In large numbers
peeking their old Jobs. A great many
of the plants were closed down nf the
beginning of the week, but in some of
tie districts these were being reopened
gradually with Increasing forces of
workers. In the Pittsburgh district
tie employers asserted they were in
creasing production in all the Impor
tant plants; the Gary and Indlann
Harbor mills resumed partial opera
tion; the strikers nt Canton. O., nnd
Birmingham, returned to work. On
(the other hand there was virtually n
complete tie-up In the Mahoning val
ley, the Colorado district and nt 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 ninny Injuries re
mitted. The state constabulary got
Into action promptly and effectively,
breaking up nil assemblages and In
general restoring order. Sabotage was
In evidence in various plants.

i Fltrpatrlck admitted to the commit
tee that there had been no demnnd
'from the steel workers for unioniza
tion, but that the Federation nf Labor
(Considered it necessary because" the

The reasnn' why 'he changed frotq
Imlen to fhilllee was the growing op
position to'lilm.1 The fate lit '.loltn tho

his nvviiidenth. The. i ejection of tho
feierunner meant the rejection of him
M.hps,. jinlyciu he heralded. Prudence
moved hlui to a, more remou. region,
when he would attract Iqss.attcntlon
and be free frnpi opposition, Besides
this It gn've less'fnvdied pedpfc nn op
