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 / i CLINCH COUNTY NEWS 6 week, but there was a lot of determi¬ nation expressed by those who would talk.

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.“ THE MAINE IS REM 1 Launching of Namesake nate Battleship Draws does Crowd to Witnesi Tit" bn: ib - hip Maim-. di^B It" higr.ef. stronger and fa^Mu her namesake, whoso shapelesW still lies in tho harbor of Havana successfully launched from theW of the William Cramps Snip and] gine Building Company at Philadcl Saturday. , One of the largest crowds t ever Cecil a worship take ihe^Hri on le.c cradle. flH ■it' ' -HHB jHSssl t n.nHHH aS, . •>t.
