T0 RESUME fContinue-l rrom ratre oriel break out anew. At times it looked as though the whole affair was off but peacemakers urould get In the good words and progress would be made. When the last point bd been approved, the motion was made that the "treaty'" be referred to the board of works for their signature, to be immediately reported back for approval by the council. This fizzled, but after a series ef motions and amendments, practically the same thing was finally adopted. A recess was taken during which the members f the board of works attach, ed their signatures to the amended ordinance. It was then up to the council to adopt the ordinance. Several of the opposit swung in line but when It came to suspension of rules where ur.antmous vote was necessary, the action Slopped. Major Brown then notified the members to be present at the special session this morn'.ns. At ten o'clock the matter was once core taken up for final passage and adoption. Here Alderman L. C. Bmith made the motion to table It until the city should have definite assurance that the cars were going to run If the fare Increase was granted. T,he tote on this stood seven to seven and the Mayor saved the day by voting to Veep the ordinance alive. On the final vote the count was eight to s'.x In favor of the adoption. 1

vers y. The telegram said: "our telegram received, stating that steel workers are being discriminated against and discharged wholesale for purpos,tof forcing strike. The steel companies are doing the same in many other places. -But in spile of this persecution try to hold men at work until all amicable means of settlement have been exhausted. The executive council of the American Federation of Labor Is negotiating for a conference with President Wilson today. The steel companies show by their actions a determination to force the issue before the president has had a chance to pass on merits of controversy. We are doing all possible to secure justice for the men and to prevent the national disaster of a general strike in the steel industry. Do not strike under any circumstances until the strike date has been set by your committee."
