' XcAilTEeiE. STATEMENT.
The Plras'sSIde of the CoBtroyersy at the

' When asked last evening for a complete
and impartial' statement as to the scale.

making the, proposed reductions, General
Manager H. C. Prick, of the Carnegie Steel.

thing Jn reference to. the matter, but such a
statement' had been, prepared .aad would
appear, in an, editorial in this week's Issue of

The' editorial mentioned Is elaborate and
.exhaasilve, cbntainiag several tables with a
complete outline of the- situation. It says
'that a reduction in tonnage rates" of those"
furnaces -and mills where important im-.
fP'royements'have been.made and new ma
chinery has been added has greatly in
creased iheir output and consequently the
.earnings ot the workmen.. Where no such
improvements or additions, have been made
no reduction in tonnage rates is asked.
Such' an. Increase jin output justifies a re
duction and still leaves, the earnings of the
workmen practically uncha'uged, or in some
eases but slightly reduced, even at the- re
duced minimum, and further that, in- the
'near future these earnings will be greatly

CONSOLIDATED
, Pittsburg, Iron aad steel manufacturers
have at last consented to pay tribute to the
strength aad determination of the Amalga
mated Association. They' made a move
yesterday which shows'awUlingaessto'make
peace. They' 'asked .for .an additional con- '
jtereace in. which to- discuss" the new iron
seale. The manufacturers have made a bold
effort to gain their ends and united in holding
out as long as was' practical, with the idea
that the Amalgamated Association -would
ultimately give In. Up until' 10 o'clock
last night both sides had remained firm in
the. standthey had taken, but at last the
ires and steel masters weakened and asked
that .the Amalgamated. Association meet
them in another conference. At the head
quarters of the Amalgamated Association
last night President Weihe would say noth
ing of the affair. Prom a prominent manu
facturer it was learned that it; was true
that the manufacturers had asked for a third
cpnference, and the meeting would take
place in the Ferguson block this afternoon
at 2 o'clock;
Up to the present time, not nearly as
many scales have been signed in the gen
eral rolling mills as usual at this now? At -midnight
Wednesday tbe only firms that
had affixed their signatures to the wage list
were the.Tyler Tube Company, of Washing- .
ton, Pa. the Muncle Iron and Nail Com
pany, oi Muncle, Ini, the National' Roll
ing Mills, of McEeesport, which includes
the Boston Iron" Company, and the Oliver
Iron and Steel Company, "which signed the
sea e for their "steel mill and wire nailiao
foryonly. Slany Hew Scale Signers. .
AH day yesterday, however, President
Weihe was besieged with telegrams from
manufacturers stating they had signed the
scale, and at 10 o'clock last night President
Weihe gave out the' following list: The
Harris Forge and Iron Company, of Iron
dale, Minn., Cfaartfers Iron and Steel Com
pany, Mansfield, "Pa., Riverside Iron Com
pany, Muskegon Iron and Steel Company, "
Muskegon", Mich.; Cleveland Hardware
Company, Cleveland, O.; Scottdale Iron
ahd'Stee'l Company, Scottdale, Pa.; Rome
Iron Company,' Bomjej, Ga.; Kansas City
'Boiling Milbk-Kansas City: Carnegie Union
'Mrrft-oftMs city.and others.
in addition to tne above signers there are
a large number who" were represented' bv
the-Commlttee'of Iron" and Steelj&hee't.
"Manufacturers who slgnedths1, scale '-Wed
nesday mgnt xnis committee represented
some 23 or 30 mills which have puddling
furnaces connected with their works; and In
signing the scale they practically agreed to
pay 5 50 for the boiling of iron.
Among the mills represented by the steel
manufacturers are tne United States Tin
.Plate Company,Demznler, Pa., Apollo Iron
ana.ateei company, .apoiio.ra., Jennings
Bros. & Co., Aetna Iron and Steel Com
pany, Crescent Iron Company, Bepublio
Iron Company, liqua Iron Company,
Struthers Iron and Steel Company, Strutt
ers, Pa., Lakeshore Iron Company, C'eve
land, O., Falconer Iron Company. Niles,
O., Irondale Boiling Mills, Irondale, O.
The mills included in this list employ from
3,000 to 5,000 men.
One Carnegie Firm Comes In.
In the list of sew signers appears the
Carnegie Steel Company, Limited, who
signed the scale for their Twenty-ninth and
Thirty-third street mills. These works are
known as tbe Union or upper mills. For
nine months past very little work has been
accomplished in the upper mills, and the
employes were idle the greater part of the
time. Now that the scale has been signed ,
it is proposed by the firm to operate them
night and day. This fact is said to show
that the Carnegie Steel Company are pre
paring to make a determined fight at their
Homestead mills.
The firm has supplied structural iron to
the Keystone Bridge Company, probably
the largest concern of its kind in the
United Spates. Heretofore all work
for this company has been done at
Homestead, but now the firm has
transferred this department to their
upper mills in this city, and it is said that
the Carnegie Steel Company have sufficient
work on hand, taken from the Homestead
mills', to keep their Twenty-ninth and
.Thirty-third streets mills in operation for
some time: ' While tbe fight Is in progress
at Homestead the firm will fill all orders
-for certain kinds of structural work irom -
-their city mills.
