NEW MOVE BY TRUST
Action Taken Which Will Effect¬
ually Checkmate Strikers.
WANT INDIVIDUAL CONTRACfs
Employees Must Sign or Lose Their
Jobs—Action Practically
Bars Atl Union Or-
ganizat.ons.
The National Tube Works Company,
at McKeesport, Pa., has made an un-
expected move intended to checkmate
the Amalgamated association. Their
skilled workmen have been asked to
sign Individual contracts to practically
repudiate any union organization, and
they have been given but a short time
to think the matter over, it is under¬
stood that should they not sign the
contracts they will find their positions
vacant.
Thursday evening the 800 welders of
the mill were paid off and taken into
the office of the general superintend-
ent. where taey were presented with
individual contracts to he signed for at
least a year. Some demurred, while
others signed the contracts.
This movement, fighting fire with
fire, carried consternation into the
ranks of the strikers. The welders arc
highlv skilled workmen, and with their
co-operation the big plant might be
closed down. With them in line th«
plant will probably keep on running as
though nothing had happened. It is in¬
timated hy friends of the welders that
they would all sign the contract.
Definite announcement that the offi
cials of the Amerit an Sheet Steel Com
pany would start the W. DeWees Wood
mill, in McKeesport, a non-union mill
on Monday, reached the headquarters
of the Amalgamated association early
Friday morning. The movement will
not br permitted to be made if. without
a decided attempt to check While
the rank and file of the strikers are
not acquainted with the plans of the
campaign, they now believe that im¬
portant developments will change the
aspect of affairs considerably. There
ts apparently less o^the confidence
that was noted In ihe first part of the

nation expressed by those who would

HEAVY THRUSTS AT SAMPSON,
War Correspondent Graham Roasts
Admiral and Naval Clique Which
Hoped to Ruin Schley.
War Correspondent George Edward
Graham, who represented the Associa¬
ted Press on board the Brooklyn and
stood beside Admiral Schley, replies
to the criticisms made by Maciay. He
says:
“Maciay was either induced or or¬
dered to assault Schley so fiercely that
the latter would ask for a court of in¬
quiry. Then the Sampson-Evans-Crow-
ninshield-Chadwick crowd hoped to get
such a board appointed as wotlld make
it apparent that Sampson, of 12-miles-
away fame, was responsible for the de¬
feat of Cervera, although he ran away
on the day that there was any indica¬
tion of trouble. Maciay gives away tne
whole scheme when he says that Admi¬
ral Schley should ask for a court of
inquiry.
“It would seem as if there should be
settled first the question of veracity-
raised by Maciay and the navy depart¬
ment. Maciay is quoted as saying that
the department saw his proof sheets
and approved them. The department
says that is not, true. Would Maciay
mind telling if Chadwick did not. re¬
vise them?—Chadwick, who on Iy saw
the battle from a distance of 12 Vniles.
Chadwick, who has surreptitiously fur¬
nished the press antagonistic to Sciiley
w..i material; or perhaps Evans, the
ftnly man who got in a conning tower
and hid during the fight, might, have -
se-m them. Anyway, Clark, of the glo¬
rious Brooklyn, or Philip, of the Tex¬
as, all of whom were up to their necks
in the fight, didn’t revise them or as-
sif t in writing them.
“if they are going to courtmartial
somebody, why don’t they get Samp¬
son to say why he ran away the only
morning when there was an indication
of a fight? Why don’t they ask him
why he did not coal at sea off Santia¬
go, but depleted his battle line daily
by sending ships 50 miles away to
coal? Ask him why ne left the battle
line with the fast cruiser New York
to chase schooners so that he could
get prize money. Ask him why he nev¬
er said a word or signaled a word of
praise to officers or men after the fight,
i although Schley asked him to do so.
j These are things worth courtmartial
j tng any man for.“
