TERMS PROPOSED TO
SETTLE BIG STRIKE
All the Plants of the Steel Trust to be “Open,” and
the Amalgamated Association is to Dave the Right
to Organize the Men in Any of Them==41l Eyes
Turned on the Conference to be Held Today.
PITTSBURG, Pa., July 29.—-The fol-
terms of settlement of the strike find
the program for tomorrow come from
an authoritative source and can be re
lied upon In all human probability as
the outcome of the meeting of the con
ferees.
Terms of probable settlement: The
Amalgamated Association is to drop
contention for the Bigning of a scale
for all mills.
All mills are to be "open" mills in
the fullest sense of the term.
The company is to have the right to
place a non-union man In any plant
and keep him there.
In addition to the plants covered by
the expired scale It Is to be signed for
the following: W. Dewees Wood, of
McKeesport; Painter,- Lindsay & Mc-
Cutcheon, and Clark mills, of Pittsburg,
and Moness^n plants of the American
Steel Hoop Company.
The question of making the Wells-
vllle sheet plant and the Monessen tin
plant directly covered by the 6calo la
to be fettled by the conferees.
The Amalgamated Association is to
have the privilege of organizing, the
men In any of the plants.
PITTSBURG, Pa., July 29.—Every
body Is on the qui vive tonight In
strike circles and the coming confer
ence of the leaders of the two contend
ing forces is looked forward to
mingled hope and fear. Hope, however,
predominates, and peace Is confidently
expected by the majority of those in
terested.
"The executive committee of the
Amalgamated Association will meet in
the headquarters of the organization
at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning or
soon thereafter as possible and take
up the propositions of the United States
Steel Corporation for a settlement of
the steel workers' strike."
This statement was made by Secre
tary Williams, of the Amalgamated
Arwociatlon. Beyond this he declined
to discuss the strike in any form.
There was no change in the position of
the two contestants today. Both'sides
held firmly to the plan of watching
each other.
The officials of the wood mill of the
American Sheet Steel Company made
no attempt to start the plant and In
dications pointed to their remnlrilng in
active until the strike negotiations are
decided one way or the other.
The first report of the day, that tho
American Tin Plate Company
making an effort to start the Demler
plant with non-union men and that one
set of rolls was being operated, was
afterwards explained as being a rumor
that started from the fact that the
company had some men at work re
pairing the plant with the expectation
that the strike will be settled shortly.

NEW YORK. July 29.—The officials
of the steel companies now here pre
serve silence as to the conference of
Saturday between the leaders on either
side of the strike and the possibility
of a settlement. It is believed, how
ever, that the terms of peace outlined
on Saturday will be ratified by the ex
ecutive board of tho Amalgamated As
sociation on Tuesday, and that there
will be nn early resumption of work,
Both sides are silent as to the term*
of the new pact, but various claims of
victory are being made in behalf of
the strikers. On that point a man in
terested In the steel trade said to the
Associated Press:
"Take some salt with there claims
of victory. Walt until the new agree
ment is signed and its contents pub
lished before you award any decision
as to the gains on either side.”
President Schowb was at his office as
usual today, but declined to talk about
the conference on the prospective set
tlement. J. Picrpont Morgan is be
lieved to have gone to Bar Harbor.
NEWPORT, R. I., July 29.—The Co
lumbia today defeated the Constitu
tion, boat for boat, in a splendid race,
by 2 minutes and 54 seconds and won
tho 41,000 cup presented by Col. John
Jacob Astor. Her victory was decisive
and convincing. The behavior of tho
Constitution on tho other hand was
disappointing in the extreme and this
evening Mr. Duncan announced that
his boat would not take part in fur
ther races until her rig had been al
tered.
The Constitution will not participate
in the Newport yacht racing events of
Thursday and Saturday of thin week
as a competitor of tho Independence.
The Columbia, however, has been en
tered for these races and will sail
against the Boston boat
The Constitution will go to Bristol
at once to have the alterations made.
The regular trial races for tho pur
pose of selecting the defender of tho
America, cup will be held hero on Au
gust 31 and September 1 and 3.
Tho wind today never exceeded 13
knots and although there was a long
roll of the wa, setting in from
southwest the wator was by no n
rough. It started with a force of about
nine knots when the preparatory gu
was fired, and.freshening grodually as
the race progressed. It attained a
strength of 13 or 14 knots when the
Columbia wan greeted ns tho .winner.
It Is mot easy for the best friend of
the Constitution to make plausible ex
cuses for her most palpable defeat. She
was bpaton fairly and squarely on her
merit*. Running almost dead before
tho wind! on the first log of the course,
f»hs at flnst opened out quite a gup of
clear water between herself and the
Columbia and It looked as though ah'*
would have a long lead in the run
wn the wind. So long ns tho wind
continued light sh6 had It all her ow*n
way, but when it freshened the Colum
bia slowly but surely overhauled her
and when thpy got to the firrt mark
was only a few lengths astern. As
they rounded tho Block Inland mark
tho Constitution had the weather
berth. She dkl not keep it long.Tnxtcad
of a boat to windward the beat to the
second mark resolved itself into a very
long leg on the port tack with a cou
ple of short hitches on tho starboard
stretch.
The Columbia covered this long leg
three minutes and ID second® faster
than the new boat. Thin settled tho
race, for the Constitution was unable
to ever cut down this lead on the
short run home and so the yachta fin
ished.
NEW YORK, July 29.—The Ilam*
burg-American line steamer Allegheny
which arrived here today report* l that
she was held in the harbor of Carta
gena, Colombia, for twelve hours. Pas
sengers on tho Allegheny report that
Abel Murrillo was arrested on the ship
at Cartagena and taken ashore by. the
Colombian authorities. Murrillo pro
tested against his arrest,, claiming that
he was entitled to the! protection of the
German flog.
When the ship arrived at Cartagena
nhe was ordered detained by the au
thorities there. The captain protested
that ho w'as hailing under the German
flag and that no official of Colombia
had a right to stop the vessel for any
purpose whatever. This ‘protest was
unheeded, however, and search was
made for Murrillo, who waa found on
deck. He declared he would not bo
arrested and running to one of tho
hip’s masts he seized the German
ilug which was lying there and wrap
ped it about him. Then he stood for
ward and cried out:
"I am under the protection of the
German flag and you have no right to
arrest mo.”
According to the pasengers on tho
Allegheny tho Colombian officers, not
withstanding the protest, seized the
man. and dragged him from the ves
sel.
According to n signed statement,
made by three of the Allegheny's pas
sengers. Murrillo left the United States
about four months ago on a passport
signed by the Colombian minister
Washington. On his arrival at Sava-
nilla he wmi arrested and taken to Bo
gota, where he was released on the un
derstanding that he would sail on tho
first vessel for tho United States ThI
Murrillo did, bonrdtlng tho Allegheny
at Savanilla.
i expressed fears that he would ho
M'd at Cartagena and \vh(
el aj^lved at that port he refuiwl
to go ashore when wonrl v/ns brought
that the governor wanted to see him.
His arrest followed.
Tho dtatement made by the passen
gers then saysi that Cnpt. Lowe, of tho
Allegheny, protested against the ar
rest, saying it woe against Intematlon
al law and at the same time the cap
tain told the mate to put the German
flag on the gangway s>r> that iho Co
lnmblan officers would have to tre
on It If they took Murrillo.
The arrest did not take place at this
time and the police withdrew on the
captain's protest. Later, however, the
nhlp's clearance papers were refused
and the statement was made that they
would not be furnished until Murrillo
was rurrendered. A signed statement
concerning tho incident then says:
The raptnln th*n went on land, and
after a while returned with more po
licemen and wo then thought that he
was going to give up th£ paehengor In
exchange for hts papers.
VThe police went up to Murrillo and
tearing from him that ‘dirty rag,’ as
they called the flog of Kaiser Wel-
helm, trok the prisoner from the ship.
This statement Ip signed by Edward
J. White, a British'subject; Alme Van
Den Bognerde, a Belgian, and Charles
E. Pope, a citizen of the United State*.

WASHINGTON. July 29.—The oil and
