Reports have reached the Chinese legation of the extent of this feeling throughout the Chinese empire and of the hostility of the Chinese commercial guilds to American Roods, which might result. It la asaerted. in a general boycott against American products even were It possible to conclude the exclusion treaty now.

THE WORKMEN ARE SURPRISED a tBpeeUl to The Indianapolis News ANDERSON.

20. Although It has been the rule to joperate Ita planU until 30 before closing for readjustment of wag schedules, report Is current In thla city to day that the American Sheet and Tinplate Company will shut down most of Us plants within the next ten days for sn indefinite time. Workmen who have heard the report srs sur prised and disappointed, and, though the report lacks official confirmation, the men are Inclined to the belief thai It ia true. They say tha news will be a blow to. the tlnp'ate forces of the mills In Indiana and elaewhere.

Ijocal' representatives of the American Sheet and Tlnplate Company to day refused to discuss the report, and when pressed for a atatement they professed to have no Information. They thought that If the company had decided to close its plant before or soon after June 1 ths public would know It In due time. Will Affect 4X Indiana Despite, nonconflrroatlon of ths report It can be said with a degree of certainty that the mills of the American Sheet and Tlnplate Company will close one month earlier than ever be fora for the usual brief summer "suspension of operations and flxinsr of tha new wags agreements. It Is understood that orders will be. If not already, issued for closing practically all tha smaller plants June The larger plants.

It is thought, will continue in operation until per ha pa about June 10. Probably the only two plants that will be operaUntr afUr Juno 1. for a few days, will ba one at Newcastle, and the second la rises one In the United States, at Elwood, this State. If that plan be followed It will mean that the tlnplate mills In this city and also at Oas City will close June which will force 4.0u0 employes of tlnplate mills Into idleness on that date or possibly a week later. Lockout Not Improbable.

Skilled forces of the tlnplate mills are disposed to think the early closing period may resolve Itself Into ar lockout before the next wage schedule la The Amalgamated Association, In session at Detroit, is framing the new wage scale for ita men. while the Tlnplate Workers Protective Association, at its recent meeting at Wheeling. W. prepared a new wage The demands of both branches of the workmen will soon be presented to the company. It la expected the Amalgamated men will ask for an Increase of Id to 15 per cent.

In wares, while the other element of tlnplate workers will not only refuse to stand sny reduction, but will ask for sn Increase. The action of the American company In closins; Its plants nearly a month before the time the old ware schedules expire, will intensify the ifeelins; of the workmen In a stand for more wages when the mills are re onened. Ire their agreement to the conditions in force until June 30. 19C6. the workmen understood they would have work until the last day of the life of the agreement Now that it is to be cat short means a hardship on many of them.

Inasmuch as they will be unable to calculate when they will iret to resume work under a new wane schedule. Many will be forced to seek other means of employment If a prolonged controversy develops, as feared, when the waas committees go to New York to deal with tha heads of the American Sheet and Tlnp'ate Company.
