Kftoits of steel mill operators to ob
tain a large emergency supply of coal
before the calling of the threatened
mineis' strike and the possibility of
(iiniieiunui ie'cicrm soicuers oeing seui
to Gary, Ind.. today innrked tlie pi og
ress of the steel workers' strike, now
nearly seVcn weeks old. "Whiie every
thing is quiet on the surface, there is
trouble in the air," said Colonel W. S.
Mapes, commander of the tioops having
Gary under military control "and more
troops will be ordered here in order
adequately to police the large terri
tory." The usual statements regarding grad
ual impiovement in tlie industrial sit
uation bv the einplovers nud druinls of
the strike being weakened bv the labor
leaders were made foda.v. It was ad
mitted, however, little effect was had
on the workeis bv expiration of the

Pittsburgh, Oct 2.'!. fBy A P.)
Inci eased Operations in the steel mills
of the Pittsburgh district affected by the
strike weie lepoited today by United
States Steel Coipoiation nnd indepen
dent intetests. No details as to tonnage
were given out. hut 1t was said thnt in
almost all the plants affected additional
men were added to the woikiug forces.
In suppoit of their contention that
blast furnace operation had inci eased
steel men pointed to the weekly report
nf the Connellsville coke region where
fil.dSl tons more coke wns pioduced
than in the preceding week As against
this strike leadcis said the increase was
due to the fear of a coal strike and
furnaces were increasing their stocks.
Strike headquarters had no leports
this niouiing to indicate any clinnge in
the situation State tioopers con
tinued to patrol the streets (n the Vi
cinity of the Ildgnr Thomson mills nt
