The Ironworkers Intend to Modify
and Eevise Their Scale.
t
ABOUT THE SAME AS LAST TEAE'S.
Manufacturers, Having Ko Organization,
Will Act Each, for Himself,
PRESIDENT CAMPBELL'S FUblLADB
" There will be n0 strike in the iron and
steel industries this year, and, although the
manufacturers have refused to hold a con
ference with the workers, there seems to
have been some sort of an understanding be
tween both sides.
The Manufacturers' Association has been
dissolved, but the "Western Iron Association
is still in existence, and Joseph D. Weeks is
still the Secretary of that organization. The
manufacturers have not had any communi
cation with the workers on the wage scale, and,
although they have met and discussed the
situation, nothing has yet been published of
their action. Secretary Weeks was authorized,
as an official of the association, evidently, to
write the following editorial, which will appear
in the current issue of the American Manu
facturer, and voices the opinion of tho iron
masters:
KO GEXEEAL ACTION.
The annual convention of the Amalgamated As
sociation of Iron and bteel Workers, which began
its cession in thii city Tuesday, has attracted lest
attention to lueir than usual. That its sessions
and -what it is reported is belnj; done at them oc
cupy so little or the attention or the country.
Ten or those most interested In the results at
present, is due to the overshadowing importance
of the awfot calamity at Johnstown; bat thlsdoes
not account ror the unusual lacs: of interest mani
fested In its probable outcome that preceded Its
convening. This can only arise from a certain
carelessness as to the resultortbe convention that
may be due to one of two causes, either that the
manufacturers propose to accept without a strug
gle whatever mav be demanded as wages and
extras, or that they intend to contest whatever Is
offered
Trior to the convention Mr. IVelhe, as President
of the Amalgamated Association, "wrote Mr.
WeeVs whom Secretary or the Association or
Manufacturers or Iron, bteel and .Nails, a6klngfor
the appointment or the usual Committee or Con
ference. Mr. Weeks replied that the association
was out orexlstcnce, and there was no way to se
cure the appointment of a committee to represent
It, and It is understood that quite a number or
Pittsburg Iron manufacturers positively refused,
when approached on the eubjecMo have anything
to do with the appointment or a committee. Indi
cating that whatever they decided to do they
would do as Individual -works.
It Is evident that whether there will be a fight or
not will depend npon what the association de
mands, lrthe demand Is practically last year's
scale, without any snakes" in the shape of new
extras or new clauses, It will be conceded by most
or the mills without a contest, but if there are ma
terial changes, either In the scales as at present In
force or In the addition or new scales, such as roll
turners or engineers, or If there are material
changes In the extras, then there will be contests,
borne mills will sin the scale, others will fight.
And the experience or the past shows that these
Individual contests have a better 'chance ror suc
cess than those which are general. There are ele
ments or weakness in a struggle that involves a
number or mills that do not exist when men are
fighting alone. Anyone who has watched the
history or the struggles or Individual mills
against the Amalgamated knows that in every
case when a determined struggle has been made,
the Amalgamated has been defeated. Take the
case or W.D. Wood & Co., the .National Tube
"Worts, Parks, Clark, Dllworth. Porter A Co,
Duquesne and others The history or the Amal
gamated Association the past year has been one or
constant defeat where the straggle has been a de
termined one, and the outlook is that there will be
determined struggles If there are material altera,
tlonslnthe scale.
SECEETAEY MAETEf TALKS.
The above was shown to Secretary Martin,
of the Amalgamated Association, hut he de
clined to talk on the first part When he came
down to the statement that the associa
tion had been defeated at the mills named be
became rather indignant, and said that no firm,
no matter what their wealth or capital, have
beaten the Amalgamated Association. It was
the workmen themselves that did it, and they
regret their action now.
The session of the Amalgamated Convention
yesterday was almost fully occupied in consid
ering the report of the wage committee, and
the scale that will oe presented to ine manu-
Eecturers was completed ana win oe presented
It once. Although the convention decided not
make known what wages nad Deen decided
, a dispatch reporter learned mat
THE SAME SCALE
as is in force at present will be offered to the
manufacturing firms for their signatures. No
advances in any department have been made,
and in the matter of extras many hare been
eliminated and none have been inserted.
It was decided to donate $300 to the Duquesne
Rtpel Works strikers, and Messrs. Hn ch O'Don-
uell, John Miller and Dennis O'Leary were ap-
pointed a committee to oistriDuie me money.
THE GUIDE MILL SCALE.
The scale in the guide mill is not at all satis
factory, and a committee was appointed to re
vise and readjust it. President Weihe was
authorized to go outside of the convention to
secure men to act on the committee, and the
following persons were named:
Delegates John E. Cunningham, M. D. Flynn,
James McEldawny, M. A. Collins, ltobcrt 1 Itz
irerald, Henry Uright and Joseph W. Itutledge.
on-delegatcs-Phllllp W eaver, Jas. H. KUey,
Edward Uoates, IVm. Mathews and John bear
ing. The delegates are very well pleased over the
condition of affairs and say they will have a
more pleasant time at their jtnnnal reunion
this year than ever before, as there are no in.
dications of a strike or lockont as there has
always been in former years. They will meet
at the hall on Saturday morning, at 8 o'clock,
and march to the Union denot, over the follow
ing route headed by the Select Knights band
and the Pittsburg City Band:
Forbes to Chestnut, to Firth avenue, to Grant,
to Third avenue, to Wood, to Fifth avenue, to
bmithfield, to Liberty, to Union station.
A STINGING STATEMENT.
President Campbell, of the Window Glau
Workers, Sets Out to Demolish His
Persecutors He Swears They
Are to Blame for All
Trouble.
The Window Glass Workers' Association
officials have positively declined to be investi
gated on the importation of foreign glass
blowers, and President Campbell Las made a
very important statement, which Is given in
substance below, revealing some things that
liave never before been made public. The
statement is sworn to by Mr. Campbell, before
Mayor McCallin, and will be printed in the
"official organ of bis organization, the Commoner
and Glassworker. Its gist is appended:
Mr. Campbell first gives a detailed statement as
to how and why the Universal Federation of glass
workers was formed in 1881, alleging that the ease
with which manufacturers here got union work
men from Europe at reduced wages had become a
terrible menace to the industry. The foreign con
tract labor was not then In exlstance, and there
was no way to displace the evil except by organiz
ing the window glass workers of the world In per
fect harmony. Isaac Cllne, then President, and
A. ti. Denny, specially appointed, did much to
estanllsh the harmony of relations be
tween the two worlds In this industry. In
this connection Local Assembly 300, K. of L., of
which President Campbell Is Master Workman,
spent over $15,000 to build up the Federation, and
Is now paying over $1,000 a year to help organize
the European worklngmen. A mrther history or
the growth and strengthening or the Federation
by means or inter-communication and Inter-,
employment at curreut wages follows, and then
President Campbell Jumps down on the manner
In which L. A. 300, under President Cllne, railed to
vote down an apprentice limiting law, which
was In Itself, he alleges, cause for all the subse
quent shortage or glass blowersandwhlch necessi
tated the ultimate hiring or foreign workmen. In
this connection President Campbell says: "Every
ruling that CUne made while President on the ap
prentice law was against the aprentlces learning
their trade, and dnrlng Cllne's term of office the
organization was directed against the American
hoys learning the trade, whether intended so or
not.
THE EVIDENCE OF IT.
"The shortage of workmen In the last two years
Is sufficient evidence or that statement. Every
ruling made by the former President relative to
apprentices has been reversed by new rulings,
making tbem as broad and liberal as It was possi
ble to do Last January one year ago, in injr re
nort for the first seven months' service as Presi
dent ortbe assembly, 1 recommended that more
blowers be learned." ....
As another canse for the mooted shortage of
blowers In this country, be adds: The develop
ment of natural gas has caused a large Increase In
the business, mnch larger than was expected. The
ract Is. there has not been enough learning to
blow and rather, and upon the evidence fnrnuhed
the committee by Cllne and Uessner in 1885. the
apprentice law was red need . Every labor man at
the bead or any labor organization knows rull well
that If the President and Secretary had taken a
stand against a reduction or apprentice percent
age, tbe vote of the Assembly would not have
stood 10, 130 for a reduction or SO per cent In the
apprentices, and only 832 against the reduction.
t'Cbambera & MeEee sent a communication to
the office or the Window Ulass Workers' Assocla.

l? w "" offlce statedjthat they preferred
union men and native workmen. The Srm sent
Albert St. Peter, who Is a member or L. A 300, to 30
factories lor the purpose of engaging workmen ror
the firm. 8t. Peter secured about ten, and some or
them were filling places at the lime they were en
gaged, andltwouldhaverequltedmentoniltheir
places when they came to the tank to work.
A circular was sent to every preceptory In the
organization asking them to report as soon as
possible the number of idle workmen In their pre
ccptorv, A large number of them never answerea
the circular, from the fact that they were appeal
ing to the offlce for workmen to fill places at their
own works."
80ME FACTS OF EECOED.
A few orthe answers received are inserted; but.
as they are all about the same, it 1 unnecessary to
reproduce them. The preceptors at uiub Jew
ries state tasthey ha ve no men to spare and some
of them have not enough men. All of the ap
prentices were put towork under a ruling by
President Campbell. The statement continues as
"The'CouncU and Assembly sent me out to look
for Idle workmen. 1 visited some 2S furnaces and
found them all short of workmen. Every place
was short of workmen. The firm secured nongn
Catteners and cutters, members ofU A. SO. ana
It was Impossible to secure enough blowers and
gatherers. 'from the factthat there was not i enough
Idle, and not enough workmen to keep the places
running as they should, which every preceptor of
the organization can testify to." ,,.,.
Allusion is then made to the impossibility of
ciUier Messrs. Chambers or McKee transferring
workmen from their Pittsburg flint factories to
.their window glass tank factory atJeannette, br
even or the few pot factory window en one or
them controlled, it is asserted I ttat. while i some
members or L. A. 300 opposed the tank ractory on
principle, they were left no alternative but to .let
Chambers McKee take union men from abroad
under their sanction, as applied foror else get
other workmen as best they might. Then Presi
dent Campbell Jumps right at his opponents, with
the following sledge-hammer blows. In concln-
"?It was held, too, that the organization would
not be able to establish a violation of the contract
labor law ir the firm was compelled to secure for
eign workmen, from the tact mat ine union uu
been appealed to, and were unable to furnish J
workmen to fill the places. The suggestion was' 1
'.,- .,.-... ,if.tin..n t jct hp Universal I
Federation. The members or the Federation
were Knights of Labor. In the years that the
Federation had been In opera tlonlt had prevented
hundreds of foreign workmen coming to this
country. In fact only since the Federation has
existed has there been not one single non-union
factory In the country. This was the result of the
poller of the Federation to keep their members at
home except npon a call for men made necessary
by the conditions ortrade. Here was the first time
that L. A. 300 was under the necessity of drawing
on their union brethren In Europe The world
knows that enough men came from Europe to fill
the vacant places.
JUST WHV THEY CAME.
These rorelgn workmen came to this country
because tnere was room for them to work here.
They are not under any contract with Chambers &
McKee, L. A. 300, or anyone else, that I know of.
The men are free to leave the employ or Chambers
& McKee at any time they please. They aid not
displace anyone by going to work on the tank.
They are receiving mil union wages, obeying all
the union rales, and It Is not, as many people
think, that the organization Is holding back ap
prentices from filling the places. If there had
been apprentices to fill the places, they
would nave been given the prefer
ences. As It requires several years' prac
tice before a blower or gathering appren
tice Is able to fill the place, the -cut down In the
percentage of apprentices In 18S5-'S4 Is what
causes the pinch now. There was no other way
out of the dilemma ror the interests of L. A. 300.
The officers and members did wnat seemed best
for every one concerned, and If there has been a
violation of the law It was not intended so. The
Universal Federation or Window Glass Workers
was organized In good faith, and L. A. 300 will
stand by the organization unless the laws or the
United States prevent her rrom doing so. The
ract that several factories burned down was a
matter the organization had no control over.
Otherwise the factories would not have burned.
"If the Trades Council's Executive Committee
had come to tne office when they were first Invited
to do so. nothing would have been held from them.
Everything In connection with the men coming
would have been explained In full to the commit
tee. The men who have been making the charges
against the orsranlzatlon and officers have done
everviuiug mej www i picjuu.wo ..o u..uw v.
the people against the officers of L. A. 300, and the
only way to test whether thelaw has been violated.
Is to prosecute the officers of L. A. 300 and have a
legally constituted court decide whether there has
been any violation of the contract labor law. The
organization Is satisfied to have the case tested In
that way. JAMES CAMPBELL.

MAKING GOOD INDIANS,
Not With n Dose of Lend, but With a Coarse
of Christian Training.
Mrs, Annie DeKnight Robinson, formerly of
this city, who has been traveling through the
Indian country in the West for several years,
part of which timo she spent with her sister,
Miss Emma DeKnight, who is a teacher at the
Indian training school on the Otoe reservation
at Red Rock Agency, addressed a meeting at
tke First M. P. Church, on Fifth avenue,
last night, under the auspices of the Pittsburg
and Allegheny Indian Association. Major A.
M. Brown presided over the meeting.
Mrs. Robinson's talk was very interesting
and contained man; points concerning the In
dian under process of civilization that were
new to her listeners. Among other things she
said that the Indian -children, if kept away
from the Influences of their uncouth, uncivil
ized parents, become bright, cleanly and indus
trious. These results were secured through
the training schools, and the teachers and mis
sionaries made it a point to keep the children
as much away from their primitive homes as
possible.
The lady also said that when properly trained
the Indian children developed into very good
singers. The moral training of the Indians was
also dwelt upon at length, and the efficacy of
the training school as a civilizing medium was
pronounced the best yet attempted. Mrs. Rob
inson advocates the establishment of more
training schools under the management of good
Christian women.
The regular monthly meeting of the Indian
Association will be held at 14 Btockton avenue,
next Thursday afternoon.

Whisky Kills.
How Men are we yet to be told that whis

so do hundreds of other good remedies kill
if abused instead of used. But ask the
question "Will whisky cure?" "Yes" is
the positive reply of the most eminent phy
sicians of all the land. Disease, steals into
your system like a sneak, thief into your
house, and often by the neglecting a bad
cold we end our days in lingering and wish

pure whisky or brandy would have cured
the cold. Such goods may be scarce but
