PHILOSOPHICAL COGITATIONS. All men are alike when it comes to death and dollars. "We are all cut out by the same pattern. The only difference is in the trimming. Do a bad thing and the person you are the most anxious to bide it from will know all the particulars first.

Kvery man believes in his heart that his relatives are depending upon him to make tbe family name famous. There are too many people who don't now how to mauage a dime who think they could manage a dollar. When a woman makes up her mind to marry a man there is no escape for him sxcept to marry some other woman. Every sentiment that is a He does harm. It is sentiment to admire the beauty of the Jion, but it is sense to lock the doors of the heepfold against him.

Philadelphia, July 1. Rolling mill employees in this city numbering upwards of 1,000 quit work last evening because of the refusal of their employers to sign the scale of wages that has been in force for several years past, by which $4.85 per ton was the basis of pay for puddling. Tbe two firms a fleeted are Hughes Patterson aud Gaulbert, McFadden Caskey. The rolling mill employees of this city are nearly all members of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers, of which, there are two lodges in Philadelphia, Quaker City and Fair HiLL These number ia their membership all classes of rolling mill workers, including finishers, puddlers, helpers, machinists and others. These organizations have ordered several strikes in the city, the last one about five years ago.

It was then that the sliding scale based on $4.85 per ton for puddling was conceded by the manufacturers, who were then organized as the Philadelphia Rolling Mill Association. Tbe scale has been signed every year since, each agreement expiring at midnight June 30. Three weeks ago Hughes Patterson posted a notice to tbe effect that they would not sign the scale this year. TBI HOMESTEAD STRIKERS. Tbey Have Thoronh Ortranlzatlo and Pittsburg, July 1.

The advisory committee of the Homestead strikers met to day and completed arrangements for the protection of their interests during the wage war. Their organization is thorough, and consists of sub committees on the preservation of order, regula tion of the sale of liquor at saloons, and protection of outside labor. Tbe rivers will be patrolled and watched day and night. About 40steamboatsand yachts are in the service of the men, who guard the bank carefully on both sides of the river. The headquarters of the men will be removed to ighth avenue, and it will be fitted up in a manner to suit all parties.

There will be 30 incandescent lights put in, and a private telegraph wire will be put in, reacning every city and town in the United States. The saloon keepers have been requested to limit sales and to prevent mobs from collecting and to refuse to sell if neces sary. The men are disposed to keep peace, but if an attempt is made to operate the plant with non union men. there will probably be trouble. All em ployees were notified to day that they were to receive tneir pay.

In an interview to day the secretary of toe Jarnegie citeei company outlined tbe position of the Homestead mills. The mills will be closed for two weeks for re pairs. About the fifteenth or twentieth the old men will be notified that they can return at their scale, and if they fail to come non union men will be em ployed. The manufacturers claim they made their scale to suit the present prices of iron, and therefore cannot change it to meet the demands oi their workmen. An Abortive Conference at Pittsburg Pittsburg, July 1.

The iron scale conference of manufacturers and work ers, which it was hoped would result in a settlement oi tbe great strike, was session four hoars to day, and finally adjourned without being any nearer an agreement than before. Contrary to expectations, both sides refused to make any concessions, and after a fruitless talk, lasting from 2 o'clock this after noon until after 6 o'clock this evening. an adjournment was taken until next Wednesday.
