All of the tin workers are now idle, making 10,000 men idle. It is believed that there will be no clash here. The city is so strongly organized that it is scarcely likely that the American Tin Plate company will make any attempt, to operate its mills with non-union1 men. y|iu ,|o£rili«»ii are now uppleaching completion.
