Fi S? rTSn-T Tf 1 ? 10 THE PITTSBURG DISPATdH, WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER T, .1892. THE EIGHT-HOM LAW. The Builders' Eichanw Will Talk on This Question To-Day. TWO MORE AMALGAMATED LODGES Tin Flate Manufacturers Discuss the ness lutlock. Bnsi- CDEEEXT ETEXTS IX E1E0E CIECLES Bome icportant questions will come np for discussion at the meeting of the Build ers Exchange to-day. The attendance promises to be unusually large. At the last meeting a resolution Tvas in troduced, but held over, favoring the adop tion of the eight-hour lasr by the Exchange. The resolution was printed and mailed to each member, informing them when it would come up.so that they could be present The issuing of these resolutions has met with a hearty response irom all the mem bers, and the lines between those who favor or oppose them are clearly drawn. "While this question has been often brought up in the Exchange and as often opposed, it is thought the conditions now are 80 changed that a majority of the mem bers will favor the adoption of the eight hour system. Preparing Tor Next Tear's Work. The discussion of this question at this time is particularly pertinent The year's work is about over and plans are being laid for the coming season. For this reason the question is brought up, so as to allow ample time for discussion. It is not likely that any final action will be taken at to-doy's meeting, as the opinions of the members seem to be prettv evenly divided. This promises a determined contest The chief objections come from the own ers of planing mills and manufacturing concern, as they claim should eight hours become a legal day's work they could not do ttie required work in that time with their present equipment This would ne crssitate an increase in their plant of both machinery and men, and they will oppose the resolutions to a man. As opposed to this element are those who claim that wbilo n increase in the plants would be neccs tarv a two-turn svsteni conld-be adopted, and the manufacturers would not only.se cure a greater output, but the aluc ot the concernFwould be enhanced. The adop tion of the system of hourly compensation will also be discussed. This system is now in vocrue in many parts of the couutry, but chiefly in the shops of large corporations. Favor Paying by the Ilonr. The members of the Exchange seem to be pretty generally in favor of this plan and therj will likely be little opposition to the plan, though it is not probable that it will be acted upon at to-day's meeting, as the eight-hour law will take precedence,it being considered the most important at this time. The question with the builders is how will eucji a change be accepted by the workmen, as they have not yet intimated how they look upon such a move. Another question that will demand much attention is the holding a conention of all the exchanges in Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio and West Virginia in this city in a short time. This subject has been agi tated for some time, and at the last meeting a committee was appointed to make the necessary recommendations. Since the withdrawing of the Pittsburg Exchanje to gether with nearlv all within a radius of 100 miles of the city, from the National Exchange at the last National Convention these exchanges have existed as indepen dent organizations. There has been a grow ing Jeeling for cliser unity of these bodies, and a meeting tor a general discussion of questions relating to the trade is probable. The Exchange here has about 1,000 mem brs, the largest membership of "any ex change in the country, and would take the responsibility of such a move. No date has been set yet, but it is thought it will be near the middle of January. TO ADOPT BES0LTJTI0H8. The Prosecution or the Sand Diggers Occu pying the Attention of Kivermen. The Pittsburg Coal Exchange held a meeting yesterday morning. It was not xerg well attended, as it had been hastily called to take action on the death of Joseph "Walton. A committee, consisting of Harry Brown, S. L. Wood, B. T. Wilson and Secretary Tilley, was appointed to draw up resolutions and present them at a meeting this morning. The prosecution of the sand diggers who persist in leaving the river bed in such a lumpy condition as to senouslv interfere with navigation was the principal subject of comment among the members, though nothing more -was done than urge that more evidence be gotten aeainst the sand companies for suitsto be entered soon. TO STOP MAKING IE0M. The Puddlinc; Tnrnaccs at New Castle May J$ Itlown Out Before Long. A special from New Castle says that during the past year the chanced conditions in the manufacture of iron have been severely felt by the puddlers of New Castle. A great many puddlers have been laid off, and at the present time there are no less than ten idl fnnttn., t k. !,.. :n bteel irom the new Sbcnango Vall- "lill is being used in large quantities, u.. it makes a better quality of sheet and plate iron, and as it is almost as cheap as the puddled iron, the mill men here say the manufacture of the latter will be discon tinued entirely. - . .... ... t-i.c. luilt. iJIEBICAN P2DEBATI0K OF IAB0B. The Amalgamated Association TUU Be Represented by Three Delegates. The annual convention of the American Pederation of Labor will convene on De cember 12 and continue one week, at Phila delphia. The delegates from the Amalga mated Association are ei-Presldent William "Weihe, Vice President W. A. Carney and "William E. Hubbard, of Hubbard, O. At this convention it is expected that a number ot questions of great importance to the labor world will come up for discussion. The Federation took a prominent part in the Homestead strike, and this struggle will come in lor its share in the discussion. MILLS OHCE H0HE BTHHIKG. The Last or the Carnegie Works at Beaver Palls Begin Operations. A special from Beaver Falls last night says: The Carnegie Company's nail mill resumed operations this morning on single turn with about 150 men at work. In case the former wirej drawers who are now in other cities report for duty and the wire mill gets to running ftill-handed so that enough wire can be turned out, the nail mill will go on double turn the latter part of next week. Peter Crane, of Salem, O., the new superintendent of the nail mill, ar rived this afternoon and will take charge at once. 1UNEES LAY DOWIT THE1E TOOLS. The Cats Dure Mines Idle Because the Men "Want More Money. , A special from Monongahela City says: The colored miners employed at the Cats burg mines quit work, yesterday and brought out their tools. They want an ad vance in their wages, and say tbey will not return until they get it The present strike' ' In its general characteristic is an exception to the usual noisy, bombastic style of. con ducting strikes. There is but little display. Quiet determination i to -i- ri si , tfimMf operators along THE TIN PLATE INDUSTRY. Tho Scml-Annual Convention or Manufact urers Held In This City Tho Probable Bepeal of the TSIcKinley Bill Discussed Ths View Taken of the Situation. The tin plate manufacturers of the United States held their semi-annual meeting in the office of Secretary Jarrett yesterday. The meeting was well attended, there being representatives here from all parts of the country. This was the first meeting since the election, and the result received the greater portion of the discussion. This industrv was directly dependent upon the McKmley bill, and the prospects for its repeal being bright, this industry is considered in a precarious position. Plants have been built in all parts of the country, but they have not been in operation long enough to become firmlv established. The early repeal of the McKinley Bill would likely work great'injury to the tin -plate industry, though the manufacturers took a hopeful view of the situation and decided to go ahead with the work as rapidly as pos sible. Thev considered that entirelv too manv plants had been built and too much capital invested to allow the present plans to drop through. The opinion as expressed that they could stand tinkering with the tariff as well as many other industries and need not be afraid, as the price of work will fall with a change, and all in all they took a hopeful view of the situation. No special effort will be made to hare the law kept as it is, as it is thought remonstrances from workmen employed in this industry will be sufficient to prevent any radical change in the tariff relating to the tin plate xnanuia:i- New Amalgamated Lodges. The Amalgamated Association has estab lished two new lodges during the past few davs. One is at the New Castle Steel Works, of New Castle, at which about 200 men are emplnved. The other was at the Benwood Iron Works, of Benwood, W. Va., at which about 100 men are employed. The New Castle works started up only a short time ago, while the Benwood works have just started, alter lying idle for a long time. WANTED MORE CAKES. Mrs. Scanlon Could Not Satisfy Her Hus band With Twelve A Lover Who Pur sued Her Until She Married Him Forced From Home a Dozen Times. Twelve times Mrs. Thomas Scanlou was forced to leave her husband, but she was brought back every time, only finally to be thrown into the street with her aged father because she wouldn't bake more than 12 po tato cakes apiece for her husband and his two boys. Mrs. Scanlon, accompanied by her father, who is about 65 years of age, ap plied to Central station about midnight Monday for shelter. They were given quar ters lor the night and were referred in the morning to the Anti-Cruelty Society. The story told by Mrs. Scanlon is an ex traordinary one. "She said: "I have left my husband 12 times on account of his cruelty, but each time he has brought me back by sending officers after me. I even went as far as Kansas City to escape him, but was brought bsck from there. I wen to the police station on the Southside to day and told them it would be useless to send foj me again, for I would never re turn. We have been married three years. My-husband, his mother and his two chil dren by his first wife live in the house we occupied on Excelsior street, Southside. He makes good wages, but lie never gave me enough for provisions for the house. T couldn't get money from him to clothe my self. My father, although very rioor, bought me clothes. Jlv husband almost forced me to marry him. I was a waitress in a board ing Louse, He commenced to take his meals there, and almost as soon commenced to make love to me. I tried to evade him, and finally left the place. As often as I changed my place he followed me. He has treated me frightfully since I married liini, but in this regard he makes no distinction with his 80-year.rild mother, who lives with him. "Monday I had done a big day's washing and was very tired. We had potato cakes for supper, one of hh favorite-dishes, and after bending over the hot stove cooking 12 cakes each for the boys and my husband, he ordered me to cook more. I refused and all evening long until he got out of bed at 11:30 o'clock to go to work (he worked on night turn), he abused me. Then he took a poker and threatened to kill me. I called my lather, who had come up from his home in Wheeling to look for work and was stay ing with us overnight My husband com menced to abuse him irightfullv. He then told us both to leave the house at once, hurling vile epithets after us. I am now determined to get rid of this man for slavery days are over and I know I can make a liv ing for invself." The Anti-Cruelty Societv took Mrs. Scan lon before Alderman Cahill, where informa tions were made against the husband for surety of the peace and non-support The society will see that Mrs. Scanlon's case is properly presented in the courts.
