Carnegie, Phipps & Co. Give Notice
of a Change at Homestead.
SLIDING BASIS TO BE ABANDONED.
Jlr. Costello Almost Admits That the Miners
Want 10 Cents More.
THET WILL HOLD A COXFEEEXCE TO-DAT
A sensation was created in Braddock at 5
o'clock last evening 'when the announce
ment was made that the firm of Carnegie
t Uros. & Co. had given notice that, they de
sired to make a change in the sliding scale
at the Edgar Thomson Steel "Works. This
nsin pursuance of an agreement made
with the men three years ago, but it came
jn the nature of a surprise for all that. No
tices were posted to this effect in several
conspicuous places about the mill and
created a stir among the employes of the
great plant.
The notice was headed with a copy of the
original agreement made with the men in
16S8 and 1S39, a correct copy of which has
never before been given to the public It
is here appended:
TT.T OF THE AGREEMENT.
Copj of the agreement made and entered

amine all documents bearing upon the
prices received for rails, and who shall
terrify to the correctness of the statement
of the association.
A IJTDmDUAIi UNDERTAKING.
Fifth e, the undersigned, having read
the above, and examined the scale of wages
hereto arranged and made part hereof, here
by apply for employment under their condi
tions, and for the valuable consideration of
employment given by the association, we,
each one for h.mself, hereby pledge our
selves as men and oitizens to adhere faith
lullv thereto, and to take such position at
said steel works and furnaces, as may be as
signed to us, to accept as full payment for
our ser ices, wages at the rate set forth
in the scale refened to, and that we will
abide by and obey the rules and regulations.
Underneath this printed contract signed
by the men at the time, is a notice to the ef
fect that the firm desires to terminate the
previous agreement. The notice reads as
follows:
To Our Emplmrs:
As provided in the above agreement, we
hereby notity ou that wo desire to end it
December 31, 1S91, and that w e wiil be ready
to make a new sliding scale agreement w itu
3 ou at an time attei October 10, 1891, to take
effect Jauuarj 1, 1892. The contemplated
changes are 1 endered necessary principally
by the inti oduction of many mechanical im
proements and advanced methods of man
ufacture by w Inch the output has been ery
much increased since the above agieement
w ent into effect
Crj.eoik Brothers, Limited.
II. C. Fkick, Chairman.
WHAT THE ASSOCIATION SATS.
Superintendent Schwab was called upon
list night and requested to give an idea of
the proposed reduction in the scale of wanes.
He prelerred not to commit himself in any
way, stating that when anything was to be
made public the firm desired to inform the
men of that matter first. When asked if
there was any probability of the firm con
ceding the men eight hours, which they
have long prayed for, he stated he was not
in a position to answer until there was a
conference held with the workmen. He
added, how ecr, he thought there was no
probability of the eight hours being con
ceded. The men hardly know what to think of
the matter, as their signature to the scale,
winch has proien very satisfactory to them,
was almost forgotten. They are making
good wages, working long turns, and it was
a matter of fact that they had neer once
considered a change in the sliding scale,
over which such a struggle took place three
years ago.
A REDUCTION EXPECTED.
They all believe, however, and such are
the statements, that the change means an
other reduction for them, th; only question
being how great, and whether they are in a
position to light it.
Secretary Loiejov, of Carnegie Brothers,
raid when showi the above last evening:
"The notice doesn't mean a reduction. It
merely means a ret ision of the scale, which
hasn't beci equitable lor some time. Some
of the men have beeu making too much and
others not enough, under the late run of
work, and it was thought best to revise the
sliding scale."
The action of the firm will be regarded by
the men as amine toward off a project
looking toward the adoption of a eliding
scale in all the mills. Some of the Amal
gamated lodges recommpnded this at the
last convention, but they were in the
minority. However, there is a crowing
sentiment among the lodge for three-year
ttales, resulting largely irom the fact "that
the Homestead men have profited by theirs,
and the sliding scale has pro en itself less
troublesome.
HOW THE SCALE SLIDES.
During the early quarters of the Home
Mead scale the basis of the settlement ran
as high as ?34. Then it grew less gradually
until in April, when it was 26 50, and ill
July, S25, the minimum. The firm will, of
course, argue as a reaon for wanting
the agreement dissohed, that the basis for
the next quarter should be below ?25, but
under the .urreement this would be impossi
ble. Generally, the men arc ahead for the
two j cars, and thej will say at once that
the present move is a blow at sliding scales.
AX ADVANCE OP TEN CENTS.
resident Costello Almost Concedes That
to Be the Price Wanted by the Miners
It Will JSe Settled To-Dsj Great In
terest Taken.
Contrary to first expectations, the miners'
Convention did not succeed in completing
its business j eterday, and another session
will be required to-day. The fact that the
piocecdings hae been drawn out is taken
as e idence that the men are carefully con
sidering the proposed demands.
The contention was called to order yes
terday morning by President Costello, of
the local district There were also present
I'residcnt J B llae, Vice President James
I'enua and AV. C "Webb, a member of the
General Lecutive Board, from Kentucky.
There were CO delegates present, repre
senting about V0 mines. The hentiment of
ihe contention on the wage question was
M.cuicd and referred to a committee on
resolutions. This committee reported at
the a'ternoon session but no definate action
was taken on the report. It will be acted
upon this morning, and a conterence will be
held this aiternoon with the operators.
An effort was made last night to get a
statement as to what the demands will be.
President Costello said he could not say,
because the question liad not been voted
upon.
"Well, will it be 5 or 10 cent?" was
asked.
"J?n e cents!" he exclaimed. 'That's the
first time I have heard 5 cents mentioned in
connection with this advance."
"Then the inference is that you are going
it whole hog or nothing?' "
"Well, I suppose that's the way of it"
If the miners should force a demand for
10 cents a ton it would place them on an
equal footing with the river miners, and
tht will create a sharp competition be
tween the two classes of operators. The
river operators now claim that since they
have been compelled to pay 3U cents a
bushel their trade has been taken from them
in McKeesport, Braddock, Duquesoe and
Homestead, some of the best towns on the
Honongahela.
J, Morton Hall was spoken to last even
ing, but he said he could furnish no inform
ation until the operators would be made
acquainted with the nature of the demands.
He said the operators would be willing to
confer with the men at any time, but at the
time he was seen he was not aware that a
conference had been arranged for.
All the members of the General Execu
tive Board of the United Mine Workers
are in the city, with the exception of Sec
retary John McBryde and John Nugent, of
Ohio. Those here, are President Bae, Vice
President Penna, John Kane, Ind.; W. B.
Wilson, Pa., and W. C. Webb, Ky. Great
interest is centered in the present conven
tion and the business before it and its out
come is anxiously looked for by both opera
tors and miners.
Has Secured Sew Property.
The West Penn Gas Company, successor
to the Pine Bun Gas Company, and which
was sold by the Sheriff a short time ago, has
acquired new territory. It was bought by
K. M. Hnkill, of this city,who immediately
reorganized the company and secured addi
tional property. The main line is in the
form of a loop, and gas is distributed at
Apollo, lieechburg, Freeport, Natrona and
Tarentum.
The Printers Will Strike.
To-day the job printers' scale ends. The
new one, providing for a reduction in the
hours of labor with the old pay, has not yet
been signed, and at 5 o'clock to-night a
strike will take place. The District Or
ganizer, V. B. Williams, is here to conduct
the strike and to bring about a conference
with the employing printers, if possible,
that will lead to a settlement.
Industrial Notes.
Fisteks more bricklayers arrived here
yesterday from Philadelphia. They will go
to work here at $4 a day.
Miss Mart O'Eeillt, Deputy State Factory
Inspector, has been called home to Phila
delphia to the death bed of an aunt, and In
spector Baker will complete the work here.
HIS BBICKS WERE BBASS.
A Pennsylvania Farmer Badly Taken In
by Two Swindlers.
Philadelphia, Sept. 29. John Apple
man, of Buck Home, Columbia county, this
State, came here to-day and called at the
United States Mint to receive from the
Government ?5,000 for two "gold" bricks
that he purchased for 83,500 a few days ago
from a stranger who visited his town. A
simple test by the Mint Assayer revealed
that Mr. Appleman's bricks" were brass,
with no trace of gold about them save a thin
wash on the surface.
After Mr. Appleman had, in a measure,
recovered from the shock of the intelligence,
he told the following story of how he had
been taken in: A man giving his name as
Joseph Parker had appeared in his village
a few days ago. Parker told him that he
had two gold bricks that he would like to
ell, as he was badly in want of the cash.
Appleman at first declined to become a pur
chaser, but after another man, claiming to
be an Assayer at the Philadelphia Mint,
appeared upon the scene and tested the
bricks and said that they were pure gold,
and worth fully 55,000, Appleman consented
to buy them, and gave the swindlers $3,500.
Appleman left a description of the men.
IGNATIUS DONNELLY'S ADVICK.
He Asks Minnesota Farmers to Hold Their
Wheat 30 Hays Longer.
St. Paul, Sept. 29. Ignatius Donnelly,
President of the Minnesota Farmers' Alli
ance, was in the city to-day. He is still
advising the farmers to hold their grain,
and has lately officially issued another cir
cular to that effect. In speaking of the con
tents of the circular to-day, he said he had
adyised the farmers to hold their wheat for
30 days longe.-.
"They are not getting enough for their
grain at present" said President Donnelly.
"The circular is calculated to place myself
in a right position on Ahe question
of holding wheat. I think I have
been misrepresented by the statement
that I advised farmers to sell
their grain as soon as threshed. That is a
wrong impression. I have always been in
tavor ot selling when a good price can be
obtained, and it can't be had at the present
time."
Trouble in Hardscrabble.
John King and his wife, Patrick and
Mary Moore, Mandie Burns and Festus
King w.ere all arrested by Officer Devlin
last night on warrants issued by Magistrate
McKenna charging them with assault and
battery. The prisoners are all residents of
Hill street, in the Hardscrabble district,
and their arrest is the result of a clothes
line fight, which occurred last Monday.
The hearing will be held this morning.
A Decision Against Waller.
Haeeisburo, Sept. 29. Judge Simon
ton this morning overruled the exceptions

against D. J. Waller, Superintendent of
Public Instruction, and entered judgment
by ouster against him. It is understood
that an appeal will be taken to the Su
preme Court, and a motion will be made to
advance the case so as to be heard October
26 at Pittsburg.
A Judgment Against Bardsley.
Habrisbukg, Sept 29. Judgment was

Denial of a Reported Revolt Against
Barillas in Guatemala.
.
DRUNKEN FIGHTS IN THE STREET
Supposed to Have Given Eise to an Alleged
Wholesale Killing.
EDITORS OP THE THREE DATS' BATTLE
rSPECIAL TELEORAM TO THE PISPATCn.l
New York, Sept. 29. Jacob Baiz, Con
sul General of Guatemala, said to-day that
there could be no truth in the reports of a
rebellion in that country. It is inconceiva
ble, he said, that with telegraphic commu
nication ith neighboring countries no hint
ot such an uprising should have been heard
in this city, even if direct communication
with Guatemala had been shut off. But the
daily newspapers have come regularly since
the date of the alleged uprising and have
contained no reports of disturbance, and
business communications have passed be
tween here and Guatemala, both by mail
and wire.
September 15 was the national holiday,
and it would not be surprising if there had
been a drunken fight or two in the streets
that night. Such might have been thebasis
of the report, or, more probably, the report
might have been manufactured ut of whole
cloth for political or other purposes. As
for the death of Sanchez, reported to have
taken place on that occasion, that occurred
fully eight months ago. The Central and
South American Teleeranh Company offi
cials say that they have had no report of
trouble'in Guatemala, and" New York mer
chants with business houses there laugh at
the report.
THE REPORTED REVOLUTIONS.
The reports of the revolution in Guate
mala, which is denied by the above, came
by way ot the City of Mexico this morning.
It says that a gentleman who left theCitv
of Guatemala on the morning of the 16th
inst., and who has just reached this city on
horseback, from the Mexican port ofAca
pulco, brings the information that an out
break occurred in Guatemala City ou the
15th inst, and was still in progress when he
left
According to his story, the people of that
city were celebrating the anniversary of
their national holiday. It appears that
President Barillas had "personally appointed
the orators of the day. To this the masses
took exception, and when the orators took
the rostrum it was a signal for a storm of
stones which set them to flight, they being
chased across the big plaza by a howling
mob which shouted at the top of their voices:
"Down with the Government!" "Down
with despotism and tyranny!" "Die Bar
illas!" DROVE OFP THE TROOPS.
The news of the riot spread rapidly, and
soon President Barillas threw a battalion of
infantry into the large square for the pur
pose of dispersing the mob. They, with
fixed bayonets, attempted to carry the plaza
by assault, but were met with a shower of
stones and bullets from revolvers. This un
expected action of the mob put the soldiers
to ignominious flight, leaving many dead
and wounded in the plaza.
Barillas then ordered artillery into the
plaza, and infantry and two cannons to
guard his residence. When the guns were
turned on the mob there was a general dis
persing of them, though they discharged
their revolvers at the artillerymen. They
left the plaza, but fought in the side streets
in fact, during the night of the 15tb, they
practically held full control of the city,
though at intervals they were attacked by
the infantry who shot many of them.
A strict censorship is maintained oyer all
press dispatches, and the mails are also
rifled to prevent the leaking out of any in
formation concerning the actual condition
of the country. It is stated that cable com
munication with Guatemala City has been
interrupted.
FOUGIIT FOR THREE DAYS.
At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
Anglo-American received a special dispatch
from Newton, on the line between Guate
mala and Mexico. The telegram was de
livered to the Newton telegraph office by a
special courier, and it brings the informa
tion that Barillas is master of the situation,
he having put down tho revolt after three
days of hard fighting.
The revolt, this dispatch says, was pre
cipitated by Montufar, a son of one of the
candidates for the Presidency, who is a
strong partisan of Barillas, in attempting to
made a political speech on Independence
Day.
A private dispatch to a prominent mer
chant in this city, who has business rela
tions in the City ot Guatemala, says that
fully 300 lives w ere sacrificed in the three
days' fighting in the City of Guatemala, and
that the shooting is still going on. The dis
patch also conveys the information that
Barillas has declared himself dictator.
It is stated that Colonel Jobon killed Gen
eral Sanchez, and that a brother ot General
Sanchez, learning of his assassination, went
to the place, which was surrounded by can
non, where Jobon was statioued, and phot
and killed him. General Sanchez' brother
has since been executed. The city is under
martial law, and a reign of terror prevails,
the inhabitants being afraid to leave their
houses.

HOW DO YOU LIKE OUR WIDE
BRIM DERBY?
THE METR0P0LE,
91 90, 82 10, 92 90, 83 40.
It was with some misgivings that we
placed on sale two weeks ago the new wide
brim Derby, which we issued simultane
ously with the .New York hatters. Con
trary to our expectations, we have sold such
a great number in these U days that all
doubts as to its success are fully dispelled,
and feel now assured that it'll be a great
"seller." The brim pf the "Metropoje,'
although wide, is not '"wingy," a feature
decidedly objectionable in most of the wide
brims now before the public. Come and
see the hat. It'll suit you.

SHE SUFFERED 13 YEARS.
Dr. Grubbs and associate physicians of the
Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute, 323 Penn
avenue, give special attention to diseases of
women. Mrs. Thomas Hatton, Putnam,
Allegheny county. Pa., suffered for 13 years,
as few women have.
She had pain in al
most every part of her
body, especially sharp
and cutting across the
lower part of her body
and in the small of her
hack. It was always
worse when much on
her feet. She felt tired
all the time, bad no
ambition, dark circles
around her eyes, sal
low skin, and many
other symptoms.
: sue employed id or
:the best physicians
she couldfind between
here and the far West.
StUl she grew worse, her pain more severe,
so that for three months her mind was un
balanced, and for a long time was confined
in Den. sue uecame very weaic ana emaci
ated, only weighing about 100 pounds. Xo
one expected her to live, much less get
cured. After three months' treatment from
the physicians of the Catarrh and Dyspepsia
Institute she became entirely cured.
She says: "My case was worse than haa
been described. It Is two years since I be
came cured and no trace of the disease has
since appeared. I am glad to testify to my
Sermanent cure. Mrs. Thomas Hattox"
