Pittsburg, Sept 5.—Tne advisory committee o( the Amalgamated association held a secret session at the headquarters in this city this morning, for the purpose of considering the peace proposals submitted at a conference between officials of the steel trust and members of the mediatory com mittee of the National Civic Federa "Hon, in New York, yesterday. The proceedings of the meeting in detail have not been made public, but the result is announced, and it is against the acceptance of the proposals. "Wo have decided t'nat we cannot accept those terms," said Trustee Pierce, on emerging from the meeting of the advisory board, "and our reply has been Bent to the trust officials In New York, announcing this as the decision of the board after mature deliberation." At ter rejecting the ultimatum lormulat ed by President Schwab, yesterday, .the Amalgamated advisory board made a counter proposition, the nature of which, however, has not as yet been divulged. It is believed, however, to be an agreement to open the mills pending a settlement of the questions in dispute by a board of arbitrators. Arbitration has been President Shaffer's hobby ever since the strike was first declared. The advisory board of the Amalgamated association has full |Dower to decide whether or not such peace proposals as may be submitted at the present time can be accepted. Ita action at this morning's meeting rejecting tne proposals made by Pres Sdent Schwab, is declared to be final.
