In an interview to-day, B. F. Jones, of Jones & Laughiln, reiterated tue statement that the man- Ufacturers Would not start their works at any other terms than have beea submitted to the men.

We merely offered them the saine waj as were paid 1p 1886-'87, when the price of iron Was nigher than it is'at present, Some of the men seem ‘to believe that a two-months’ shut down will not affect them, as they will make in ten months what wouid be made in twelve.

This was tue plan: ‘One of the Bonds would insure a fictitious person- age in some mutual life insurance — ot Which he bad secured the agency. Dr. Bond would cerufy to the health of the insured, one or two installments would be paid, and the alleged tn- Sured would be reported as having died.

The insurance papers and certttl- cates of death would then be made out and placed tn the hands of one of the banks here, logether with a draft for the amount insured. The money would then be collected and divided among the conspirators, ‘This game had actually been carried on for ‘three, ng eee tour or five, years, and would, doubUless, have been carried on for as many more Years Dut for the fact that the conspirators, em- boldened by their long su attempted a strike for a higher game.
