WAITING FOR ORDERS.
The Season Given for the Closing
Down of the Oliver Mills.
COMPETITION BECOMING KEEN.
mmoth Combination of Wire Manufac
turing Companies.
EEPAIRING TEE HOMESTEAD PLANT
The sudden closing down of the South
Fifteenth street mills of the Oliver Iron
and Steel Company came very unexpectedly
to the workmen. Upon a few hours notice
1,000 men were thrown out of employment
Wednesday afternooi the bosses told the
men that the mill would be shut down.
Thursday operations were practically sus
pended, and yesterday not a wheel was
turning where during the past few
months everything had been activity.
Xho only explanation given is that
there were no orders and that
the mill was overstocked. The shut-down
closes the beam mill, universal mill, plate
mill, 8-inch, 10-inch and 20-iuch mills in
definitely. Since the last election there has been
great uneasiness in iron circles, and the
orders have been curtailed whereVer possi
ble. The turninc out by the Carnegie mills
of their former heavy production since the
strike was declared off has been largely re
sponsible for the present shut-down. The
Carnegie firm, with its improved machinery,
can make steel cheaper than any other mill
in the country. For this reason it is mak
ing serious inroads into all branches of the
rade and underselling all its competitors.
Underbidding Other Iron Firms.
It is stated that a few days ago the Oliver
and Carnegie firms bid on some tanfc plate
for Eiter & Conlev. Carnegie's bid was 35c
cheaper on the 100 pounds than Oliver's.
This was a terrible cut and made competi
tion between the two firms well nigh im
possible. It is also stated that through its
improved machinery the Carnegie firm has
taken over 2,000 tons of plate from the
Oliver Company, as the former can make
soft steel cheaper than the latter can turn
out iron plate.
H. W. Oliver, President of the Oliver
Iron and Steel Company, was seen last
night bv a Dispatch reporter. When
asked as'to the above statements he had
little to say.
"Is it true, Mr. Oliver, that there was
such a difference in the bids referred to?"
was asked.
"That is business, and I have nothing to
say," he answered. He said, however, that
the advantage of the one firm over the
other was well known, but would neither al
arm or denv the question asked. Continu
ing, he sa"id: "Whenever orders are re
ceived the mills will start up again, but
when that will be I cannot tell. We are
anxious to begin operations, but it all de
pends on the orders.'.
Tee only class of work that suffers in this
close down is that of the structural beam
department. The material made in the
other departments is beinc turned out at
the Tenth street mill, part of which has
been put on double turn. It is expected
that enough orders will be received to keep
the structural department working part of
the time, but no stock will be kept on hand,
as it will be made and delivered just as
ordered. This course will be pursued until
the policy of the incoming administration
is known.
"Waiting for Tariff Developments.
For the past three weeks J. Painter &
Sons at their West End mill arc running
less than half the time, as it is claimed or
ders have become very scarce, anii.no risks
will be taken with the prospects of an
early chance in the tariff laws. It can 6e
said that the iron men in the? Pittsburg dis
trict have adopted a very conservative
policy since the election, and intend to be
very careful as to hov their plants are run.
No stock will be kept -on hand, and the out
put of the mill wills be reduced to the mini
mum. While the Carnegie strike was on
and comparatively little material was being
made at Homestead, these mills had plenty
of orders at good prices, but since the
wheels of the big Homestead plant are in
successful operation, the conditions are
greatly chanced.
In the wake of the cheap production of
the Carnegie mills, it is rumored that the
smaller firms in the city are thinking of
unitine in such a way as to be able to com
pete with the Carnegie- Steel Company.
There has been much dissatisfaction among
the small manufacturers with the present
condition in the iron and steel market for
tome time past, as they had to suffer irom
the strong competition of the big firm. The
hanging of the Edgar Thomson steel rail
plant " at Braddock to the exolusive man
ufacture of steel billets, was the
heaviest blow that has been struck
the Ismail steel plants for a long time
and these firms are now willing to accept
almost anything that will bring relief, as at
the present time thev can scarcely run their
plants at a profit. There are a large num
ber of these firms and should they decide to
pool their interests in such a way as to
work to compete with the Carnegie firm,
they would be able to make a strong fight
for self-protection. The closing in part of
the Oliver and Painter plants is only taken
as an indication that something like this
will be done through necessity.

UNION DELEGATES ELECTED.
The Bricklayers Select the Men Who Will
Represent Them at the International
Union The Local In a Flourishing Con
dition A Lively Election.
The Bricklayers' Union No. 2 met at its
headquarters, No. 41 Fifth avenue, last
night It was one of the most'important
meetings held since the strike closed last
August The hall was packed. Dele
gates to represent the union at the Inter
national Union were elected, and the con
test called out nearly all the members.
The local union is entitled to two
delegates, and during the past two
weeks the friends of the various
contestants worked hard for their favorites
so that a lively interest bad been awakened
in the selection of the men who would rep
resent them at Baltimore on January &
There were over a dozen candidates. After
a number of ballots a choice was made
shortly before midnight John Byan and
AVilliara L. Qninn were declared elected
and the vote made unanimous
The annual session of the International
Union will be an important event for the
bricklayers. A number of questious will
come up that must be settled, and there
sult will likelv have an important bearing
on the building interests throughout the
country. One of the questions of particular
concern to the local union is the report of
the strike which the, bricklayers conducted
for over a year. During its continuance
married members of the union received $7
a week and the single men $5 a week. The
contributions came from all parts of the
United States and Canada, and at the com
ing convention the Pittsburg delegates will
be expected to make an itemized report of
all money received. The union is in a
flourishing condition notwithstanding the
disastrous effects of the strike. There are
now about 700 members enrolled, and a re
serve fund in the treasury of 51,000.
THE MILLS TO BE BBPAIB3D.
The Homestead Plant to Be Closed and
New Machinery Put In.
Secretary Lovejoy, in speaking of the
Homestead mills last evening, said that in
accordance with the usual custom the plant
would be closed at the end of the year for
repairs. The plant will be closed for about
ten days and will then begin operations for
the coming year. He denied that the pres
ent rale of wag:s would be changed or that
the men would be discharged, ns the plan
now in vogne would run lor 2 years. A
number of Changes will be made in the
mills, which will greatly facilitate the
work. Tables which will be worked auto
matically will be put in the beam mills and
