Making III. lory 'loitny.
No public event In recent years In tho
Bouthwcst hus nttractcd bo much attention
ns this one, tho Initiation of u new method
of disposing of government lands.
One hundred and Blxty-scvon thou
Kaud persons, each with onn chanco
In thirteen of winning a homestead,
watched tho event here In reality or at' a
dlstencc. Tho drawing took place on a plat
form built for tho purpose In the open air
a few blocks from tho center of El Htio.
Situated at the foot of several small hills.
which formed a perfect amphitheater, the
platform was tho cynosuro of thousands of
eyes. People- occupied every Inch almost of
the spaco nround about and every move
ment of tho government officials on tho
Email space below was watched with the
most Intense Intercut.
El lleno yesterday cared for fully 15,000
peoplo and the trains that camo In during
tho night and this morning swelled this
crowd to fully double tho number. Hun
dred!! of others nro still bound this way.
Sunday was Hpent quietly, but as night
camu on nnd thu hour for tho actual draw
ing approached men and women, many of
whom had waited patiently for months for
tho event or had come thousands of miles
at tho last moment to participate, became
nnxloiid. Worn out with days of hardships
and nights of poor accommodations thoy
wero keyed to a high tension, but wituul
tho thousands wero cheerful and hopeful.
Everyone seemed conlldcnt that his would
provo tho lucky number.
Thousands of others had gono homo im
mediately after registering, content to
await news of tho result by telegraph.
Hundreds remained awake, walking tho
streets or vainly gazing nt tho drawing
platform and discussing ngaln nnd again
tho merits of n particular claim they In
tended filing on when their luck in drawing
sheiij bo announced. Many laid down and
."'ci on the ground under tho platform to
suro of nn advantageous position when
first number should bo called out at 9
r'clock or to remain perhaps till C p. m.,
when the last of the 1,000 envelopes to bo
drawn today should havo been picked from
thu wheels of fortune.
All Ilrnilj- for DrntvliiK.
Thu first break of dawn found everyone
on tho alort and moving with n common
Impulse toward tho nll-ltnportunt point.
All-had been in readiness for hours. Tho
government clerks llnlshed the task of plac
ing tho files of the applicants in envelopes
and in tying them in bundles ready to bo
placed In tho wheels nnd the wheels had
been tested for tho last tlmo yesterday
afternoon.
It w.is 11 o'clock when finally ten boyn,
flvo for the EI Reno district ami live for
tho Lawton district, wero lined up before
tho two wheels mid awaited tho word to
draw out tho first envelopes from tho re
ceptacle. A mighty cheer arose, rcpeatod
again and again, nnd the multltudo pushed
closer to the platform. Eager, drawn faces
watched cery movement of those about
thu wheels and melts wero cranod to hear
tho name of the first winner. A moment
later when a deputy marshal called loudly
for order the crowd was stilled Instantly.
At 9:35 Colonel Dyer, one of the throo
commissioners, rend tho president's pros
lamatlon relating to the drawing. This
finished tho envelopes wero placed In the
wheels, each was turned repeatedly to in
sure n generous mixing up and then In an
other moment the drawing was on.

riTTSHURO. July 29. "The executlvo
committee of the Amalgamated association
will meet in the hcndiitinrters of tho or
ganization nt 10 o'clock tomorrow, or bo
soon thereafter as possible, and take up
the proposition from tho United Stntcs Steel
corporation for tho settlement of tho steel
workers' strike."
This statement was made today by Sec
retary Williams of the Amalgamated as
sociation, lleyond this ho declined to dis
cuss the Btrlko In any form.
Tho following terms of settlement of tho
strike and the program for tomorrow come
from nn nuthorltntlve source nnd can be
relied upon In all human probability ns tho
outcome of tho meeting of tho conferees.
Tho Amalgamated association Is to drop
contention for tho signing of a scale for
nil mills; nil mills nro to be "open" mills
In the fullest Ronso of the term; the com
pany Is to have tho right to placu a non
union man In nny plant nnd keep htm there;
In addition to the plants covered by tho
expired scale, It Is to bo Blgned by tho
following- W. DoWers-Wood of MeKees
port, Painter, Lindsay nnd McCutcheon and
Clark Mills of Pittsburg nnd tho Moncssen
plant of the American Steel Hoop company.
Tho question of making the WcIIhvUIc
sheet plant and tho Moncssen tluplate plant
directly covered by tho scale Is to bo set
tled by the conferoes.
Tho Amalgamated association Is to havo
tho privilege of organizing the men In any
of tho plants.
When i'lu-j- Will Meet.
" Tho executlvo committee of the Amalga
mated nhsoclatlon will meet nt 10 o'clock
In tho morning nnd Is expected to ratify tho
provisional ternw outlined by tho New York
conference.
An Informal meeting of conferees to rep
resent the threo operating companies In
the Joint conference Is to bo held ut tbo
snmo time.
Tho manufacturers' conferees of tho Inst
meeting will bo In readiness to meet the
Amalgamated men possibly nt tho Amalga
mated headquarters In the llisscll block In
tho afternoon to sign the scale.
Thete was no chango In tho position of
tho contending forces todny. No further at
tempt was mado to start the Idle mills and
there wero no accessions to tho ranks of
strikers. An early report that tho Ameri
can Tlnplato company was making an
effort to start tho Demmler plnnt with non
union men nnd that one set of rolls was
being operated was afterwnrd explained ns
being n rumor that stnrted from tho fact
that tho company had some men nt work
repairing the plant with thu expectation
that the strlko would bo settled shortly.
This wns "a busy day for President Shnffor
nnd executlvo officials of the Amalgamated
association. Thoro was n steady stream
of callers from early In tho morning and
Innumerable! conferences bearing on the
proposed settlement of the strike. Presi
dent Shaffer was firm in his determination
not to talk on the strike situation until
aftor tho meeting tomorrow.
Another. I.oiik Talk.
Colonel G. Watson. French and J. F, Tay
lor of tho Republic Iron and Steel company
had a lengthy conference with President
Shaffer, but the object of their call was
not mndo public. It 13 Bald, however, that
It had no connection with tho strlko set
tlement, but rather with the affairs of tho
Youngstown company. It was said that tho
Republic company was In need of a number
of skilled men nnd In senrch of them. After
tho visit Colonel French nnd Joseph
Bishop, the secretory of the Ohio Hoard of
Arbitration, went Into conference with
President Shaffer. Ills visit wns in connec
tion with the strlko and Its probable set
tlement. What was said, however, was not
divulged and will not be. It Is believed that
Mr. Bishop has been actively engaged in
brluglng nbout tho last conforenco between
the strikers and the Steel trust.
Ono of tho most apparent facts In the
status of the strike 'oday was the de
termination ot tho strikers to loso no
ground In their stiugglo while peace ne
gotiations are being conducted, The
strikers claim to havo more than held their
ground sinco tho strlko began nnd slnco
the opening of tho campaign they clnlm to
havo increased their membership in Mc
Keesport alone to over 1,500. Accessions
to tho ranks hnvo nlso been tnndc In
Wcllsvllle, Pittsburg, Allegheny, Mingo
Junction and Riverside, W. Vn.,
With tho American Stool Hoop company
tho change has been one of tho most sweep
Ing. Beforo the strike practically all but
two of tho mills wore nonunion. At this
time all but ono of tho mills of this com
pany are union nnd are Idlo from tho strlko.
Tho situation of the American Tlnplato
company Is well understood. All of tho
mills of that company nro working under
union rules excepting the Monesscn mill.
Tho story told of this mill Is that under
thu agreement mndo at tho time It was
secured by the trust tho management of tho
plant was tn bo left In tho hands of tho
former ofticlals for a period of flvo yenrs.
This was dono In order to provo tho vnlue
ot tho patent methods for producing tin
plntea there. This plnnt Is still running as
nonunion nnd whilo thlrty-slx men havo
been discharged from tho plnnt for embrac
ing union principles, Mnnnger Percy Dounor
claims that tho plant Is running full nnd
has not been affected by tho strlko In tho
least. Tho mill employs S00 men.
There remains little doubt, but that offi
cials of the United States Steel corporation
are now ns anxious to havo tho big strlko
fettled as are the strikers.
Dining tho last week a number of con
racts Intended for nnd especially let to mills
of the combine were shifted to Independent
mills, with rush clauses attached,
TerniH of Settlement n Neerel.
Terms of tho prospective settlement are
being carefully guarded by all parties con
cerned, but from a source believed to bo
reliable It Is stated that Mr. Morgan pro
poses to permit tho Amalgamated associa
tion to continue Its union lodges In the
mills that were nonunion prior to tho strike,
but which went out on President Shaffer's
strlko order.
The United States Steel corporation Is to
bo permitted to operate all ot tho mills of
the Carnegie Steel company, as thoy nro
now operated as well as tho big sheet mills
dt Apollo, Vandergrlft nnd Snltshurg, pro
vlded the wages paid shall be on tho same
basis as In tbo mills where tho union scale
Is signed.
Thero Is considerable speculation ns to
who will take part In tho Joint peace con
ference provided tho terms ns ngreefl upon
at New York are satisfactory to tho Amal
gamated executlvo board, Thts board Is
composed of nlno district vice presidents
the three trustees, President Shaffer, Sec
rotary Williams, Assistant Secretary Tlghe
and I). I. Davis, manager ot tbo Amalga
mated Journal, The Tlnplato company will
probably bo represented by Vlco President
Warner Arms and W, M. Leeds, his assist
ant; Veryl Preston, former president of
tho American Steel Hoop company, nnd
probably I, W. Jenks, former eujjral timua-
ger of tho Hoop combine; John Warner,
general superintendent of the American
Sheet Steel company; C. W. Bray, chief
engineer of the American Tlnplato com
pany; J. R. Phillips, district manager of
tho samo company, and P. E. Bonner, man
ager of tha Monesscn Tlnplnto plant, will
probably be called In. Neither Perslfer
F. Smith, district manager of tho Ameri
can Sheet Steel compnny, nor John Jnrrett,
labor commlusloner ot the same company,
are liable to nppe'nr.
They havo ruined the feathers of the
Amalgamated leaders so much before that
It Is not believed they w-UI attend now.
Today the strlko of tho workers In all of
the mills Is proceeding 'as though nothing
had happened. The conditions are os they
havo teen since tho opening sf hostilities.
.Mrluerft lleninln VlKltnnl.
Tho strikers In the vicinity of McKecs
port opont n night of great vigilance despite
the rumors that a trtice until Tuesday had
been declared between representatives of
J. P. Morgan and President Shaffer of tho
Amalgamated association. The works of
tho National Tlnplato Company ut Demmler
was n storm center during the night.
Rumors that the mills were to bo opened by
men trought from the Independent mills at
Monesscn, Pa., brought tbo strikers to the
banks of tho Monongnhcla river, where they
remained on watch until long after mid
night and then after threo rousing cheers
thoy went home. The outburst was caused
by n movement oh the part of the pipe
fitters and millwrights who havo been nt
work fitting up the mills slnco tho strike
started. They finished their work about
midnight nnd sent a message to tho mill
mnuagement asking what they Bhould now
do. Tho reply came thanking them for
faithful work and telling them to go
homo nnd enjoy a vacation until tho
company needed them to start the mills.
Then they would bo sent for. This word
whs carried to thu strikers, who, much
pleased at this positive ovldcnco that no
effort would be made to start tho mill last
night, went home. Tho strl.-.ers nsscrt
that nn effort was to hayo been made to
open the mills, but yesterday afternoon
word was sent from tho Pittsburg oince
that no move should be made until after
Tuesday, when n decision of Mr. Morgan
and thu Amalgamated odlclals will bo
mado known. The welders of tho National
Tubo works, who have been ordered to
sign Individual contracts, held a 3ccrct
meeting In a McKcesport hall Sunday
night, where It Is said arrangements wore
mado to form a federation of labor lodges.
Tho woldors como in under tho federation
mill and ennnot become Amalgamated as
sociation members. Another newly formed
lodgo In the vicinity of McKeesport held
meetings on Sunday nnd took In many now
members.
No niTort to Stnrl Sheet Mill".
No effort has been made to start tho sheet
mill of tho Dewees-AVood company nt Mc
Keesport. The Wcllsvllle plant was In op
eration todnv with tho same number of
mills running ns last week. Th. strikers
aro orderly, but still very vigilant and early
this morning captured four unknown ne
groes claiming to be from Alabama. While
thoy c'almcd to havo no knowledge of steel
working nnd to be enroute west, their
stories conflicted with the Inquiries made
by tho street rnllway men and they wore
tuken ncross the river to tho strikers' camp.
Tho strikers lost four or flvo men since
Saturday. A number of others who signi
fied their Intention of returning today, today
decided to waLt, a. day or so on tho police
conference. Manager Brookmnn declared
that he does not bcilevo a. settlement will
be effected soon i-n;l scoffs nt tho Idea that
the WollsvlllQ plant will run other thnn
ns a nonunion mill.
N'nilie of1 Men CIiohcm.
Tho cohferAo lasted over an hour nnd
whnn ilwnser Colonel French, Sccre
tary Bishop' 'TrtJd7 William Collier wuro
chosen, but refused to Bay anything about
tho matter under discussion. Shortly be
foro noon President Shaffer quietly slipped
out of the olllce through a rear door and
nil efforts to locatu him have so far been
fruitless.
Later Colonel French, vlco president cf
tho Republic Iron and Steel company, called
at tho nmnlgumatcd headquarters and was
admitted to the innor olllce, where Presi
dent Shaffer and Secretary Bishop wero In
conference. Colonel French was largely In
strumcntnl In settling tho McKcesport
strlko InBt April nnd his presence today
wns regarded as significant. William Col
lier, n prominent labor leader of this city,
was nlso taken Into tho meeting.
Secretary Williams of the Amalgamated
association said tho reported terms of a
compromise hnd been guessed nt by somp
ono who Is not famlllnr with tho situa
tion, ns they nro not official.
"We nro pledged to secrecy," said he,
"and I nm sorry tho fact that wc me-.
officials of the United States Steel corpora
tion was made public. Our Intention was
to keep the entire matter quiet until some
thine definite wns done. No statement will
be made from our headquarte.rs. today."
