far ralltng the piesent stiike The de
mand for the Impeachment Is made be
enure It l cliaiRed that Shaffer com
pdl?d the steel ssoikers to siolate con

moil and tesoked their charter without

Whole strike Is unconstitutional and
hns In ought lulu and wieek to men
who Imvp made the Amalgamated as

When shown the editorial tonight,
Piesldent Shaffer said:
'Mr. Pots ell, of the tin wotkets, was

Knln Stops Parade.
The match of the MeKeespnrt stllk
eis to Huiiuesne this afternoon was a
disappointment to the strikers, partly
bccaii.se of a heavy rain during the
parade and n meeting In an open lot
and because of lack of enthusiasm. It
wan expected that at leat 5,000 of tlie
IL',000 stilkers would participate In the
match, but h actual count there weie
i"3 In line The lain tame down In tcn
tents fiom the time the paiade stalled
until the column returned to McKees
port. The Injunction gi anted the Ameri
can Sheet Steel -company at Canal
Dosfr. Ohio, against the stilkers has
had the effect ot doing assnv with all
picketing about the mill. The wlth
dinSMil of the pickets was on the ad
vice of the local counsT'l, ss ho advised
this eouise until after the counsel of
tho ansoclatlon nt Pittsburg should
make known what eouise to put sup In
the futute.
t'nltecl States maishals base served
almost all of the POO strlkeis with the
01 der.
Piesldent Shaffer today sent clrc u
I.11 s to all lodges of the association re
s less lug the strike situation, which, he
says. Is in good shape. He cautions all
niembeis against the South Chicago
men who iefii"ed to obey the strike
older, denominates them nonunlnn
nnd declate.s their catds void.
Client piepaiatlons base been made
bete for Labor day. Monday next. A

unions of Wewtein Pennylsanla Is to

ing atiangi'd to paitlcipate.
The fli st lne.ik in the strike at Me
Keespoit sas made this evening when
about forty men went to work in tho
seamless tube department of the Na
tional Tube work". The men leturned
on the same basis they stored befeiie.
the ssmpithi'tlc stiike was lnattgui.it
ed. The men did not oiganlze, al
though they met with the Fedeiatlon
of Labor men a number of times. It Is
thought many mtiie will repot t to-nior-iow
inoinlng. The men were not mo
lested, us their leturn was n suipiise
to tlie strike leaders. The tube works
cillki.ils ate inhlhint over the bleak of
the seamless men and the outcome of
todas's p.tinde at Ductuesne.
Late tonight, when piessed foi some
expipssion on the Labor World s m-pc-nrhment

said
"The paper has 110 standing In the

the explosion of one of the boilers of
tho steamer City of Trenton, on the

Wednesday afternoon. This conclusion
Is reaches! by the police authoiltles,
thiough the fact that seventeen pet

This, the englneeis claim, could hap
