SHAFFER
Head of Amalgamated Associa
tioo Tells Why Strike Failed.
A HOT ROAST FOR GOMPERS
American Federation of Labor, De
clares Shaffer, Refused to Donate
One Cent to Support
the Strike.
A Pittsburg special says: The As
sociated Press has secured an advance
copy of the statement by President
Shaffer, of the Amalgamated associa
tion, giving a history of the late iron,
steel and tin workers’ strike from its
inception, and the terms of its settle
ment. The circular will be mailed to
all departments at once. In part, the
circular is as follows:
“We were in fairly good condition
to win. without help, but looked for
aid from other labor bodies, some of
which were pledged, and to the gen
eral public, but especially relied upon
the American Federation of Labor,
with which body we have been affilia
ted ever since its inception and toward
whose suport we have never failed to
contribute.
“Our strike advanced and we were
confident of winning until the newspa
pers deliberately and maliciously pub
lished statements which were replete
with lies. Our people began to doubt
and upbraid; some, who had been of
ficials, deserted us, and afterwards,
like J. D. Hickey, of Milwaukee, ac
cepted the terms of the trust ana scab
bed. Hundreds who dared not sleep
at home, went to other places, and in
nearly every mill the trust tried to run
were many Amalgamated association
men from striking mills. We knew our
cause would be lost, but proceeded,
feeling sure we could win if support
could bo secured for the faithful strik
ers. The American Federation gave
us not one cent. The report that finan
cial support came from the national
lodge of the mine workers is absolute
ly false—we received nothing.
“Perceiving that lack of money, loss
of public approval, desertion by hun
dreds of our own people and neglect
by other organizations would render
it impossible to gain a decisive victory,
we endeavored.to save what wo could.
I arranged for Mr. Gompers, of the
American Federation of Labor, to meet
Mr. Morgan to effect a settlement. Mr.
Morggn gave up his vacation, went to
New York and waited for Mr. Gom
pers, who failed to appear, nor has not
since explained why he neglected our
interests. We were called upon at the
national office by John Mitchell, of the
United Mine Workers; Mr. Easley, of
the civic federation; Mr. Henry White,
of the garment workers, and Profes
sor Jenks, of the Cornell university.
These gentlemen inquired carefully
into our strike, and Mr. Mitchell stat
ed that if we would present a proposi
tion which he outlined, he would de
mand acceptance by the trust or call
out the miners, and he said he felt
sure Mr. Sargent would call out the
trainmen to strike also. We sent the
proposition to the members of the ex
ecutive board, which voted in favor
of the proposition. This proposition
was rejected.”
Then President Shaffer says he wait
ed for the coal miners and railroad
men to be called out. But they were
not, and President Shaffer settled the
strike on September 14 on the be3t
terms he could get, which were in
substance as follows:
The scale shall be the price agree 1
upon at Cleveland and found in the
scale book.
The company reserves the right to
discharge any employee who shall, by
interference or abuse, constrain to pre
vent another peaceably following his
avocation without reference to connec
tion with labor organizations.
Non-union mills shall be represented
as such—no attempts made to organ
ize, no charters granted; old charters
retained by men if they desire.
Individual agreements shall he made
for mills of improved character until
they are developed, when scales snail
be made to govern.
Agreed that the company shall not
hold prejudice against employees by
reason of their membership with the
Amalgamated association.
This agreement to remain in force
three years from July 1, 1901, but ter
minable at ninety days' notice from
either party, on or after October 1,
1902.
Mr. Shaffer doses by saying he is
willing to resign if the members think
he is inefficient and incapable.
To War Against Anarchists.
A national organization having for
ft* purpose the clearing of the eoun
try of anarchists has been organized,
in a small way, In Milwaukee. The
organization is to be called "The Amer
ban Patriotic Educational League,
DON8 TO ROOSEVELT.
Spaniards Designate Our Country a*
‘‘Defender of Oppressed People."
The nationalist* of the Basque prov
inces in Spain have sent & message to
President Roosevelt congratulating
him upon his accession and expressing
their best wishes for the welfare of
tlt . United Bute* as the “defender or
oppressed people.”
DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF PIERCE COUNTY.
BLACKSHEAR. GA., THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 26. 1901.
BOERS WINNING VICTORIES.
Renewed Activity of Brave Burghers
In South Mfrica Is Again Wor
rying the Red Coats.
A London special says: While Mr.
Kruger and Dr. Leyds are drawing up
petitions to President Roosevelt and
the czar asking them to intervene, the
fighting Boers are helping themselves
in South Africa by celebrating the ex
piration of the period In which Lord
Kitchener proclaimed they must sur
render, by notable successes, killing
GS officers and men, wounding 63 and
capturing five guns and 300 men. The
situation is singularly like the opening
of the war two years ago, the names
of the same places recurring in the
dispatches. Utrecht, where Major
Gough was entrapped, was the scene
of a similar ambuscade eighteen
months back. Acton Home, where the
Boers reappeared last Friday, is 18
miles south of Ladysmith, prominent
in the early hostilities, and the Natal
colonies are mustering for the defense
of Tugela, as when General Joubert in
vaded Natal in 1899.
In Cape Colony fighting is again go
ing on south of Stormberg in territory
traversed by raiders and their pur
suers half a dozen times.
The government's publication of
those reverses causes an outburst of
exasperation against the conduct of
the war, not in South Africa, but in
the ministry. The great ministerial
journals accuse the government of try
ing to run the war "on the cheap” by
not providing Lord Kitchener with
sufficient resources.
The war office has received the fol
lowing dispatch from Lord Kitchener,
dated Pretoria, September 22:
“Kritzinger, while endeavoring to
force a passage of the Orange river,
near Herschal, at 1 o’clock Friday
morning, rushed on the camp of a par
ty of Lovatt’s scouts. He failed to
cross the river, but the scouts lost
heavily. Lieutenant Colonel Andrew
Murray and Captain Murray, his adju
tant, were killed. I deeply regret the
loss of Colonel Murray, who through
out the war had led Lovatt’s scouts
with great gallantry.
“Under cover of darkness the Boers
managed to carry off a gun. They
were promptly followed up and the
gun was recovered in a smart engage
ment, in which Kritzinger lost two
killed and twenty taken prisoners.”
Lord Kitchener also reports that the
British captured by the Boers in the
ambuscade near Scheeper’s Nek Sep
tember 17 have been released and that
the British casualties in the recent
Vlafontein engagement, when the
Bocks captured a company of mounted
infantry and two guns, were one officer
and five men killed, twenty-three men
wounded and six officers and 109 men
taken prisoners. He announces that
these prisoners have since been re
leased.
He further reports the capture of
two commandoes, one consisting of 55
men under Commandant Kochs, who
w'ere taken with their transport, west
of Adenbrug, and the other consisting
of 54 men including P. .1. Botha, who
were taken with 48 wagons and their
belongings, 45 miles south of Carolina.
ANARCHISTS GROW BOLD.
With Shotguns They Stand Guard
Over Office of Notorious Publication.
At Spring Valley, Ills., twenty an
archists armed with double-barreled
shotguns and 1,000 rounds of ammuni
tion are standing guard over the of
fice of L’Aurore, the notorious anarch
ist publication which expressed joy at
the murder of President McKinley and
satisfaction over the announcement of
Assassin Czolgosz that he was an an
archist. Meanwhile fully 2,000 citizens
of adjoining towns have sent word to
the authorities of Spring Valley that
they are ready and extremely anxious
to start at a moment’s notice for the
city and assist in exterminating the
reds. The temper of the people Is at
the boiling point, the defiant attitude
of the anarchist colony serving to in
crease the anger.
A committee will wait upon General
Manager Dalzell, of the Spring Valley
Coal Company, who resides in Chica
go. and insist that he discharge every
known anarchist in his employ.
The anarchists and their sympathiz
ers number fully 500, and if this step Is
taken it will mean that one or two of
the mines will have to close down un
til other men can he brought in.
Transport Goes Aground.
A Manila dispatch says: The U. S,
transport Buford, carrying the Seven
teenth infantry to relieve the Twenty
third, and then under orders to pro
ceed for New York, has gone aground
on a sandbar off the island of Mil
ilanao.
Destructive Fire In Chicago.

WILL INSIST ON COMPARISON.
One of Schfey’a Councel Has Tilt With
Judge Advocate Lemly.
It was developed during Monday's
session of the Schley court of Inquiry
that, there will lie a final comparison
of the blockade maintained at. Siuili
ago and the blockade maintained by
Admiral Sampson. The point was
brought out when Mr. Itaynor asked
Commander Heilner In relation to the
location of the flagship New York on
the day of the battle off Santiago.
The question was objected to and
Mr. Raynor declared it would lie es
sential to establish this fact, and win.e
be did not propose to go into person
alities, nor lo criticise Admiral Samp
son, so far as ids present inclination
was concerned, there would come a
time when it would lie necessary in ci;
tablish comparison between the block
ade maintained by Admiral Schley be
fore Admiral Sampson's arrival and
the blockade maintained by Admiral
Sampson from June I until the day of
the battle.
In view of the evident effort of the
Judge advocate to show that (lie prop
er blockade was not maintained by Ad
mirajl Schley, Mr. Ilaynor’s statement
is one of considerable importance and
interest. Witnesses for the department
have been closely questioned concern
ing the character of Admiral Hrhicy
blockade with a view lo proving that
it was not of an effective nature.
Whether or not the Brooklyn endan
gered the Texas In making the now fa
molts loop off Santiago and the man
ner In which the loop was made Is a
subject that formed a feature of Mon
day's session of the Schley court of
inquiry.
