The first two preliminary calls were answered by about l.i.ooo men, so that the tola I number now out is in the neighlHiili I or liil.mio. The strikers mnile gains here yesterday over the showing of Sunday night und their prospects for further accessions at licit h .Mc-Keesioi-t and Wheeling during the week are very favorable. The action of the Amalgamated men nt Chicago, Juliet and Bay View ill refusing to come nut, and their failure to secure any re cruiis in the Carnegie group, throughout the Kiskeiniiietas valley and the plants nt Yoiingstown und Coluinlnis. O., have lss-ii markedly disappointing to them. They are keeping up the fight, how ever, in 11 spirited manner and claim Unit they have strength in reserve which will surprise their opponents. They assert that they have gained n foothoid in the Carnegie mills in this iy mid nt the time desired the men will come out. They are pressing their advaiitnge at Mc-Kees-pnrt and Wheeling, und their organizers are still nt work in those two cities. President SlialTer has decided to per sonalty visit Wheeling nnd will go there t" rrow to address a ninssnieeting of his followers.

An nppeal for tinniuial nld hns been made to organized labor nnd the general public nnd it is expected that the re siiinscs to it will be liberal.

"To the Members of Organized La bor: Brethren As you are undoubtedly nwnre the Tinted States Steel corpora tion is now waging 11 war against or ganized labor by making the Amalga mated association the subject on which to begin operations. At our last con vention it was unanimously decided to as the Tinted States Steel cot'poratioii when settling their minimi scale with the Amalgamated itKsoclatioii, that they sign or recognize tho scale of the Amalga mated nsscciatioii in all their mills.

"it tiie conferences which were held by the representatives of the 1'niled States Stee l corporation and the Amalga mated association, the representatives of the Tinted States Steel company's only lirgiiinents were that they did not desire the Amalgamated association to becotne powerful, mill that they should hold the lialiiiP-e of power. Later eonrcieiiccs were held with the heads of the Steel company who submitted a proposition that we sigt. only for the mills signed last year, with the exception of the sheet mills in Siiltshurg and Scottdale, which were signed for the year previously. Their proposiiion wns rejected ns it meant flint the Amalgamated nssociatinn would merely have to remain in a iiiies cent stale, while they were expanding nnd ndiling to their non-uiiion posses sions. "They me waging a light for the ex-tc-rtuiiiiit lim uf the Amalgauintisl associa tion and for the right of workiuginen to combine, n principle which they have ilen.iinsl r.-ileil to the people of the Tinted States, they desire themselves, ami so persistently refuse to grant us. This blow is not itlone directed at the Amal gamated nssociatinn. but at organized labor in general, and should they suc ceed ill defcaling the Amalgamated asso ciation, it Mill affect every organized body in the Tnited Slates. "To succeed ill this struggle it will be necessary to seek the aid of every or ganized body ns well ns the general pub lic whose sympathies we know are with us in the present struggle. To this cud we ask that yon give us your more than financial ahl; a liberal response tiijiui tYtilly will materially assist us in con ducting n victorious campaign for a prin ciple which is the Inalienable right of every American freeman.
