SITUATION IS MOST DELICATE Officials Say the Mills There Will Re sume In 24 Hours —Strikers Say There Will Be Developments at Car negie Plants. Pittsburg, Aug. 19. —A party of strike breakers brought up from the south by special train were safely delivered l:> the steel mill at Monessen early yes terday morning and the United States Steel corporation expects to add that plant to the number running partly or in full with non-union men within the next 24 hours. The Carnegie proper ties also resumed last night without a Iweak in the forces operating them and I hat fact joined with a promise of an early start at Monessen leads the steel officials here to take a very hopeful view of the situation. The strikers claim that men enough to start the Monessen mills cannot be obtained and that they have not yet shown their hand at Duquesne and the other Car negie plants, but promise that later developments will indicate their strength to better advantage. It was anticipated that there would bo trou ble when the non-union men reached Monessen for the strikers were watch ing the railroads and river and had expressed a determination to prevent the entrance of the strike breakers, but it did not occur. The trust officials have prepared bunks for about 50 men in the mills and large quantities of food have been purchased. A fence has been thrown around the property and guards posted to keep out all intruders. The strik ers will undoubtdly make an effort to induce the strike breakers to quit and the fear is expressed that there will be trouble if any demonstration is made against the men or property.

Caused By a Cloudburst—Passengers Delayed Over Night. Wilkesbarre, Pa.. Aug. 17.—Tho washout on the Lehigh Valley rail road at Vosburg, 40 miles north of here. Saturday evening was the most disastrous in the history of the road. Fortunately no lives were lost, but the damage done was considerable. All traffic came to a standstill and a large number of passengers bound to and from the Pan-American Exposition were put to much inconvenience. The Black Diamond express, bound west and carrying New York and Philadel phia people, got within six miles of the wash-out, when it was halted. Tho officials of the road saw that it would be impossible to get the train through the tunnel during the night, so they ordered it back to Wilkesbarre. It arrived here at 11 o'clock, and the pas sengers were given their choice of staying at a hotel over night or take an early morning train over the Dela ware and Hudson and Erie railroads to Waverly. N. Y., where connection could be made with the main line of the Lehigh Valley again Most of the passengers remained in the city over night, and yesterday some of them returned home, while others continued their journey west over the Delaware and Hudson. An investigation showed that a cloudburst had occurred and that It washed out the roadbed for over an eighth of a mile. But the greatest damage was at the tunnel. Thousands of tons of loose earth was washed down the embankment, carrying with it logs and other debris. The latter blocked the entrance to the tunnel and the water accumulated on the tracks to a height of five feet. CAPITAL AND LABOR IN UNION. Morgan Planning a Higher Form of Carnegie System.

It is contemplated to form this copartnership between the sharehold ers and the employes of the United States Steel Corporation. The plan was conceived before the steel strike was thought of, and then it was ex pected that it might be putin opera tion in two years It required time to formulate the details of such a tre mendous undertaking. For this rea son announcement was withheld." The Press also said thstf the plan is nothing more than a high develop ment of the scheme that has pre vailed in the Carnegie plants since 1892.

DEMOCRATS TOO TIRED They Refuse To Have Their Party An Insurgent Annex. A BIG VOTE AGAINST FUSION Their State Convention Places the Party Unqualifiedly Against Any Combination To Support a Bolter From the Majority. (SpecUil Correspondence.) Philadelphia, Aug. 20.—The action of the Democratic state convention at Harrisburg last week practically dis pones of the scheme for a fusion state ticket to be backed by Wnnamaker In surgent. Republicans and the Demo-: cratic organization. By an overwhelming vote the dele gates to the Democratic state conven-: tion declared against fusion of any kind and insisted upon the nomination of a straight Democratic ticket. They nominated Harman Yerkes, of Bucks, for the supreme bench, and A. ,T. Palm, of Crawford, for state treasurer, both Democrats, and then proceeded to adopt resolutions to meet any emer gency and to block any future move in the interest of a fusion campaign. A PROBALE SCHEME. It had been reported that some of the Democratic leaders, recognizing the sentiment among the delegates to the slate convention against fusion, hud agreed to support a Democrat for state treasurer on condition that after his nomination by the state convention be would withdraw and allow an insur gent Republican to he put upon the ticket in his place. When a rumor of such an arrange ment got around among the Demo cratic delegates, they were incensed at the very suggestion of such a scheme. The party rules provide that in the event of a withdrawal of any candi date on the Democratic state ticket the Democratic state committee shall be empowered to make a nomination to till such vacancy. The Wanamaker adherents were banking upon getting a better show before the state com mittee than in the state convention, but as the state convention is the supreme power in the party, its ac tion is binding upon the state com mittee. FOR A DEMOCRATIC TICKET. When the Yerkes-Palm ticket had been nominated, former State Chairman John M. Canaan, of Luzerne, present ed a resolution which set forth that it was the sense of the Democratic state convention that in the event of the withdrawal of either of the Democratic candidates nominated that day. such vacancy on the ticket shall be filled by the Democratic state committee by the nomination of a Democrat. This res olution was adopted by a vote of over five to one in a convention of over 4CO delegates. Then, in order to meet the stories that iiad been put afloat regarding the alleged intention of the nominee for state treasurer to withdraw later on, delegate William J. Breen. a repre sentative Democrat of Venango, made a spirited speech in which he spoke of the staunch Democracy of Repre sentative Palm, the candidate for state treasurer, and asserted that he would not mislead the convention or attempt to thwart the will of the great majority of the Democrats of the state, who in sist that both candidates of the party this fall shall be Democrats. He de clared that the insurgent Republicans should vote the Democratic ticket, if they are dissatisfied with their own party, and that the Democracy should not be made to be longer an annex to the insurgent element of Republi canism. He therefore moved that should eith er of the candidates withdraw from the ticket or a vacancy occur for any reason, that the Democratic state com mittee be instructed to till such va cancy wih a Democrat. While this was practically a reiteration of the former motion, Chairman John 1!. Keenan, who is n straight ticket advocate, plac ed the resolution before the conven tion and it was carried by even a more decisive majority than was given the previous one. WAN AMA K Kit CAME BLOCKED. This action will preclude the carry ing out of the Wanamaker project for a ticket to be supported by the Wana maker insurgent Republicans and the Democrats. It never was their expec tation to elect such a ticket, but they hoped to poll a large vote which could be pointed to as a nucleus for a fusion campaign for the legislature next year. The fact that a representative of Wanamaker was constantly at former Judge Cordon's elbow throughout the struggle at the Democratic state con vention prior to the adoption of the harmony plan which Cutty engineered, showed the great interest the Wana maker managers had in the proceed ings of the convention. The Gordon men were all for a fusion ticket and the nomination of E. A. Coray, of Lu zerne, a Wanamaker insurgent Repub lican for state treasurer by the Demo cratic convention. The sentiment against this proposition was .so posi tive that it was not formally presented to the convention. CORAY WITHDRAWN. One delegate, a Cordon sympathizer from lllair county, referred to the fact that there had been a suggestion for the nomination of Mr. Coray, but he said that in view of the undoubted sentiment of the convention for the nomination of a Democrat, he -would not place Coray In nomination. He expressed the hope that some arrange ment would tie reached by which lie could be placed on the ticket later. Upton's Shamrock 11. Here. Sandy Hook, N.
