Pirrseurs, May 30 —A conforence of iron manafacturers and the Amal- gamated asscclatlon committees thls afternoon resulted in the manafac torers signing last year's e $5 50 per ton for puddling. This action happily averts the strike, and insures the running ot all mills in the weat for at leset one year longer. Manufactorers who have all along persisted that they wounld not pay more than §6, and who were supposad to have a solid {ront, give as a reason for the unexpected action that they had positive information that a nam- ber of western mills had made ar- rangements to continue at the old wsoale with the condl tlon that 1f the manufacturers here were successfal the workmen would accept the same wages, and rather than submit to seeing their trade golng to other places decided to pay the wages demanded by the Amal- gamated Assoclation. President Jar— rett, of the latter, ssys tho scale was signed unconditionally, and character- fzam it as a “‘viotory without a battle.” Intense satisfaction is expressed on all sldes over the settlement, strike was regarded as inevitable, and to Pittsburg on indefinite shatting down of the iror mills meant not only seri- ous loss to those engaged in that par- tloular industry, but to every other industry and business as well, Cle nd Follows, Special Dispatch to Tus Bxs, CLevELAND, May 31.--The Unlon rolling mill has signed the ncale, and employes say the Britton Iron and Steel company have done so, though the proprietors deciine to affirm or deny it The Forest City iron works either hasor nndoubtedly will.
