STEEL PLAIIT IS . STILL SHOT DOWIl Officials of Company Making Strenuous Efforts to Get Workmen. FAIL TO MEET SUCCESS AUSTRIAN CONSUL 18 MINGLING WITH THE EMPLOYES OF CONCERN BUT REFUSES TO DISCUSS SITUATION. ' (American Ncw Service) Pittsburg, July 23. No attempt has yet been made to resume operations at the pressed Steel Car company plant at McKee's Rocks, although President Hofstot of the company said the works would start today. Officials of the company are making strenuous efforts to obtain workmen, but seem unable to induce any considerable ' number of men , to enter their employ. This ia net due so much to sentiment as to the fact that even men who would not hesitate to break a strike are frightened away by the stories told of the terrible working conditions of the . plant. ; : Finisher Have Left. Fifty-three finishers who have worked since the strike started left the plant for their homes in Chicago. They are men who do tho finest work. Whether or not the men win the strike a sensational shake up is prcmiccd as soon as things become normal. Bosses from the petty foremen of small gangs of foreign workmen up to men holding high positions will be thrown out as a result of the exposures of grafting and unjust treatment tho strike has uncovered. The Austro-Hungarian consul, Joseph Goricai is mingling freely with the men obtaining affidavits, documents, pay envelopes and all data bearing on working conditions. He talks very little and that in a conservative tono, but U ie known he will have a startling tale for the newspapers when his investigation is complete.; About the only excitement in town is the numerous falso alarms that strike breakers havo arrived. A signal has been agreed on and when three cracks of a pistol finally announce the arrival of new men there may be startling developments. Baseball Results NATIONAL LEAGUE. .

TWO MYSTERIOUS WOMEN Oil SCENE Arrived in Annapolis Today, Probably at Witnesses In Trial. ' . CONSULTED MRS. SUTTON WHEN TOLD THE COURT WOULD ADJOURN THE TWAIN DEPARTED FOR BALTIMORE MRS. PARKER'S CHARGES. (American Xews Service) " Annapolis. Md., July 23. Two wom en of mystery, both young and pretty, appeared on the scene of the inquiry into the death of Lieut. James N. Sutton today. The young women consulted with Sutton's mother and sister, who have been conducting the fight to have the original verdict set aside. No one connected with the case would reveal the names of the two strangers. It Is expected that they will be witnesses. When they were told the hearing would adjourn soon, until next week, the two hurriedly left for Baltimore. It is declared that by the testimony of these women, if they decided to put the witnesses on the stand, the Sut ton's intend to corroborate the declarations Adams is said to have made to Mrs. Parker. - The naval board of inquiry met again to hear testimony which attorneys for the mother and sister of the dead marine officer hoped to prove murder was committed. DtHart On Stand. Sergeant DeHart. the only non-commissioned officer at the scene of the tragedy, was plied with searching questions to develop if possible the identity of the lieutenant who passed the revolver to him after Sutton had been shot. "We will show that when DeHart reached tho scene three men were standing around my brother, while one was holding up his head." Mrs. Rose Sutton Parker said today before the session began. "I know that at that time someone was making an effort to remove evi dence of murder. The man. who turn ed and gave the revolver to DeHart, did it In order to have the blame for the crime placed on the non-commissioned officer. 8poilsd Their Plans. "DeHart spoiled their plans by throwing the pistol away. We 'will develop before we get through with DeHart the names of all the men on the scene and the part each one played. "Col. Doyens's testimony waa most satisfactory. There is one point I wish ; to emphasize the various wit nesses are consistent at least In the decided way each one contradicts the other. "Now we expected to prove our case by the testimony of hostile witnesses When our side is made known, there will be no doubt but that my brother was killed." GIVES UP PROPERTY (American News Service) Wabash, Ind., July 23. Jacob Click, aged 50. a bachelor, has deeded all his property, worth $2,600, to the Methodist Old Folks Home at Warren, Ind.

The stages and theaters of the ancient Greeks and Romans were so immensely large that the actcra to be heard were obliged to have recourse to metallic masks contrived with tremendons mouths in order to augment the natural sound of the voice. This mask was called by the Latins "per sona. from personare (to sound through), and delineations of suet masks used in each piece were generally prefixed to It as we now prefix the names of the characters In oui modern plays: hence "Dramatis per sonae" (masks of the drama), whict words, after masks ceased to be nsed. were understood to mean persons ot tbe drama. The Inhabitants of manr of the south sea Islands manufacture the whole of their attire from the products of tbe palm tree.

Herren was walking ahead holding the boy's hand. Stalder was just behind them carrying an empty basket on his arm. They heard the rumbt beyond the bluff. The next instant the engine came Into view. . Stalder's first impluse was to catch up the boy and Jump into the fifteen feet of water in the inlet, but he re membered that it was filled with logs and snags and he hesitated. Herren caught the boy up with his left arm and jumped to a stringer paralleling the rait at the end of the ties and was lowering himself over the edge with his burden. ' Stalder caught the boy about the knees with his right arm and also low ered himself, holding to a stringer with his left arm, on which the basket still hung. Swing Over Water. Boy Between. There was nothing for their feet to touch and they swung above the water, each holding on by one arm and holding the boy between them, with their other arms. . The engine struck the basket and the wrench of the handle on Stalder's arm t almost broke his hold aud left a scar, The trembling of the trestle almost shook their grasp loose, but th? train was not long and they were able to hold on until it passed.
