Off the Movement.
I'lTTSUUna, Pa., July 26. The National
Tubu Works company at McKeciport has
mado nn unexpected raovu Intended to
checkmate tho Amalgamated association.
Their skilled workmen have been asked to
sign Individual contracts to practically re
pudiate any union labor, and they have
been given but a hort time to think tho
matter over. It Is understood that should
they not slnn tho contract they lll find
their positions vacant. The ax Is expected
to toll tomorrow.
It transpired today that late Thursday
evening tho COO welders of tho mills woro
pnld olf nnd then taken into tbo office of
the Kenurnl superintendent, where they
woro presented with Individual contractu to
bo slsncd for at least a year. Somo do
murrcd, while othors signed tho contracts.
This movement, flKhtliiR flro with fire,
carried consternation Into the rankB of tho
strikers. Tho welders nro highly skilled
workmen and with their cooperation tho
big plant might bo closed down. With them
In lino tho plant will probably keep on run
ning as though nothing had happened. It
was Intimated tonight by friend of tho
welders that they would all sign tho con
tract. Deflulto announcement that tho officials of
tho Amerlcun Sheet Steel company would
Rtnrt tho W. IJowees Wood mill In Mc
Kcesport as a nonunion plant on Monday
reached tho headquarters of the Amalga
mated association, early today. Tho news
was received In sllenco. That the move
ment would 'not b6 permitted to be-made
without n' decided' attempt to chu6k It was
shown by long and earnest conferences that
took piano during tho afternoon In l'rcsl
dent Shaffer's ofllco.
As viewed by manufacturers not lntor
csted directly with tho strlko the situation
was summed up today In this way: Tho
strlko i not affecting the United States
Steel corporation h seriously as was ex
pected by tho Amalgamated association.
The feeling of tho leading officials of tho
trust Ik that tho strlko will not last long
nfter tho summer weather Is passed. That
this Is tho belief Is Indicated by tho llttlo
effort that tho company Is making to force
Its mills. Into operation. If tho officials of
thu United States Steel corporation seri
ously believed that the strike was going to
bo a long one, they would undoubtedly have
mailo somo organized movemeut for break
Ing tho strlko beforo this.
liny Open Aliirnilrmtr.
At McKocsport this morning Intenso ex
cltcmont prevailed over tho fact that many
guards have been sent Into tho Demmlor
tlnplatn mills, and tho report that arrange
ments hod been completed to start tho
works with nonunion men on Monday. It
was said that Inasmuch as the men had
utruck In splto of tho scalo agreement, tho
company was through with tho Amalga
mated association nnd would . resume as
soon as men could bo received. Percy
Donncr of tho Monessen plant, known as
ft succexsful strlko-brcakcr, was In consult
ation with tho Demmlcr peoplo yesterday,
nnd lt wnB said that he was to take chargo
or, inc. mill. Soi ominous was tho situation
this morning Rev. Stuart Sharp hurried to
Ibis city to beg tho tlnplato officials not to
nttomp,t to atart tho mills, ns bloodshed
would surely follow.
Tho situation nt tho Dowecs-Wood plant
niH uecanio more Interesting when at 10
o'clock this morning, the management of
tho works announced Its intention to start
tho plant nonunion within a very fow days,
and that the pollco department of McKees
port would bo looked to to protect the. now
workmen. Manager Samuel M. Cooper of
tho Wood plant this morning, after a
lengthy conferenco with head oftlclals of tho
company in Pittsburg, mado a statement
In roply to tho edict Issued by Mayor Black
of McKocsport Wednesday that tho com
pany would get no assistance from tho Mc
Kecspnrt police department should they do
cldo to start tho plant.
Will Ileninud Protection.
Mr. Cooper said: "Wo nro going to start
up within tho next few days, nnd wo will
look to the authorities of McKocsport for
assistance. Should our men bo Interfered
with wq will InsUt on tho pollco of McKccs
port doing their duty. If Mayor Black
should carry out tho lines ho has laid down
In his statbmont wo will sue him and tho
city of McKccsport, for the W. Dcweea
Wood people aro heavy taxpayers In tho city
nnd must bo protected.
Last night tho Wood plant was almost
deserted by tho strikers' pickets, who left
their posts nnd went to Demmlor, Another
report that excited tho men today was to
the effect thnt tho company had sent n
man or several men to Winchester, Va., to
employ negroes. Tho belief that thoy will
bo brought to McKocsport to break tho
strike hn caused considerable uneasiness.
It was extremely quiet at Wollsvllle this
morning. Four mills were In operation nnd
Manager Ilrookmau was preparing to make
good his assertion to have tho entire plant
In operation on Monday. It Is said tho men
aro beginning to realizo that the manogo
tnent la In earnest nnd manv have notified
Mr. Ilrookman that thoy Will report for
duty.
Tomorrow will bo pay day and tho men
will receive tholr wages for time worked
boforo tho strike. Somo excitement was
raused by the report that a well outside the
plant bad heen poisoned nnd that two strike
lirenKers living in tho mill had been taken
violently 111. The placing of a guard over
nn urtcslait well nearby gavo color to tho
report, but It wbb stated nt the mill that
thoro was no sickness nnd that tho guard
was merely n precaution.
Cull Off Mil .Mrptlng.
Tho giant mass meeting of union men,
which was to have been held on tho public
squaro here, tonight, has been called off.
The leaders of tho Amalgamated association
fear that they would bo hnablo to keep
such a crowd of men lu control nnd fear
thnt n riot might ba precipitated that would

general public.
The only chnngo In the local situation
was tho closing down last night of the
open hearth furnaces at Clark's. A number

Crulclble Steel company.
The order has gone forth that now tha
men have struck the furnaces will bo dls
mantled. Tho plant Is still guarded by epe
clal watchmen, but the city policemen have
been withdrawn.
At the Amalgamated offices tho officers of
the association said that they had heard of
no changes of importance In the strlko at
any point. The reports concerning alleged
moves on tho unorganized men of the Du
quesno mills of the Carnegie company wero
not credited In tho Amalgamated headquar
tere.
A McKeesport' Pa., dispatch says: Tho
present Indications are that tho employes
or too rational Tube company of McKecs
port will go out on a strike cither tomor
row or next week. The majority of the
employes have Joined tbo Amalgamated as
soclatlon nnd although their pay was nd
vanccd on July 1, they propoe to strike to
uphold tho association.
A .Monessen dispatch says tho outlook Is
for tho early closing of the tin mill. Tho
men nro wavering and tho organizers say
incy aro meeting with much more encour
ngemont. The management Is taking extra
precautions to prevent tho strlkors from
gaining entranco to tho mill.
Coiiiinrnt nt the I.nlior World.
Commenting on tho strike spreading to
other industries, tho Labor World, n lead
ing labor organ of western Pennsylvania,
In tbls week's Issue editorially says: "A dls
patch from Washington says n general
meeting of labor leaders will likely be held
there to discuss tho ndvlsnblllty of calling
a general strike of all trades In sympathy
with the steel workers. Such talk Is un
adulterated nonsense and does moro harm
than good. All sensible labor leaders dls
courago It. President Shaffer has done so.
Thero Is nothing moro foreign to tho prln
clples of unionism than tho sympathetic
strike, and tho rumors only fortify tho om
ploycra In tho argument that wage con
tracts with laborers aro not sufficiently
binding, and to mako them binding labor or
ganizations should bo Incorporated. I.ct us
hear no more of this foolish, harmful and
unauthorized sympathetic strlko talk."

asido from what has been published
Whothor I would bo willing to act as a

strlko has been most unfortunate, not only
for thoso directly affected, but for tho

CITY TREASURER'S BOND IS AT STAKE
Itond to Itltcr Opened Via Missouri
Avenue nnd Itesldent of Thnt
TlioriiiiKhfnrc Clnmor for
Street Cnr Service.
An advertisement Is running In the of
ficial paper of the city calling upon tho
banks to submit bids for deposits, theso
bids to be filed with tho city clerk not
later than 5 p. m. Monday, July 29. One
of the requirements of the new chnrtcr Is
that banks must bid for city deposits and
that nil bidders must give a bond In the
sum double the amount of money on hand
at any one time.
As tbo bank statement published In yes
terday's Deo shows, tho banks hero nro
In a flourishing condition and the deposits
show a decided Increase over the stntement
mado to tho comptroller of the treasury
on April 24, ThlB condition of affairs Is
ono of tho reasons why tho bnnks will not
bid for city deposits, neither will they fur
nish bonds to the city for any deposits
which may be made.
An officer of ono of tho National banks
eatd last evening: "Thoro Is so llttlo
money In tho city treasurer's hands at this
time that It will not bo worth while to
make a bid for deposits. Just now the
city has to Its credit not moro than $15,000
In cash and this sum Is liable to bo checked
out nt any time. It can therefore bo readily
seen that tho bnnks will have nothing to
gain by bidding for tho city's account."
If no bids nro received the city officials
will bo up against a proposition. Unless
a depository of funds Is deslgnntcd by tho
council In compliance with tho now char
ter and a bond furnished by tho depository
tho surety companies will not give City
Treasurer Koutsky a bond.
Tho "treasurer Is compelled by tho char
ter to furnish n surety bond In tho sum
of $100,000. This has not yet been done,
although tbo charter has been In forco for
a couple of months or more. The first
excuse given was that tha books should
be chocked. This was done by an oxpert,
who reported to the council that the records
of the office were In excellent shnpo and
that nil thu cash on hand was In bank.
Now comes tho depository proposition and
If Borne arrangements ennnot be mado with
ono of tho thrco nntlonnl banks hero to
handle the city funds, according to tho
provisions of tho charter, the personal bond
of Treasurer Koutsky will continue lu force
until the expiration of his term. Even
should this occur tho intent of the charter
will not bo compiled with, as It provides
specifically for a surety bond from all city
officials. This problem Is causing tbo city
officials to do considerable thinking.
Itond to ltlver Opened,
City Engineer Deal stated last evening
that a road to the river was practically
opened via Missouri avenue. Tho fencing
of tho portions of tho Kountzo tract was
completed yesterday and tho grading to

Every detail of tho agreement between the
city and Mr. Kountzo has been compiled
with and thero Is now an open road to tbo

A great deal of work Is to bo dono yet
by tho Pontoon Urldgo company In order
to make a secure landing. East of the
Durllngton tracks thero Is a large sand
bar, which will havo to be worked, over
In order to make a passage to the ferry
boat. A corduroy road will most llkoly bo
built by the ferry company across this
sandbar. Then a wharf will havo to be
constructed for a landing. This work has
already been planned by Engineer W. S.
King, who has charge of tho work for the
Pontoon Rrldge company. It l expected
that tho ferryboat will be running within
tho next ton days.

street railway company yesterday for In

Smith said: "It Is Imposslblo to talk

homesteads Is set to begin at that hour at
El Reno. Government officials havo nl-
ready stnted that tho case would not Inter
fere with tho opening.
J. W. Scothon, assistant United States
attorney, representing the government,

strain executive officers of tho federal gov

that the latter could bo broken at any time.

Indians. Lone Wolf was not In court.

That is why it digests what you cat and allows you to
