Uloody battle than thai of yeslorday morn-

'Ihls information was not obtained from the
lenders of the strike , nor from the committee
appointed by them to pivu out information to
the pi ess , but from the strincrs hcmsolvos.
Nearly 100 of them were scon at their homos
oy n ronortor for Tin : Ur.r. this afternoon ,
nnd thuv were of ono mind. The works must
fitund Idle until the strike Is declared off.
Tha high shorill , the Pinkerton men , or the

Since the nwful encounter with the
Pinkcrto.is the tellers of this town have
become more dcsucrnto nnd determined than
over. They have secured from some source
i. largo quantity of arms and ammunition.
These known to bo good marksmen hnvo
been selected to act as a band ot sharpshoot
ers. They will bo concealed and pick oil the
deputy sheriffs , Pinkortons or militia , as the
case may bo , as soon as , i lauding is at
tempted.
Tbo strikers nro not boisterous , nor do they
chow signs of excitement. Hut thcro Is n
more ominous sign , If thcro is anything of
trull , in the saying that a calm precedes n
storm. Fortunately the strikers are not all
Hungarians and Slavs. Fortunately the men
in the lead are men who know their success
depends largely on their bravnry.
Hut the talk of Iho men themselves will
fihoiv which way the wind is blowing. Thoji

"Wo will see that the works nro not

made by 1) . Corner , a steel worker , today.
"I'ho managers of the works know this as

PlTTSitnto , Pu. , July 7. iSpccial Tele-
Brain to Tun HIE.J The ofllco of the sheriff
was a study this morning. In response to
the proclamation of the high countV ofilclul ,
and In obedience to personal summonses for
posse duty , JiflO clli/ens wcra on hand , but not
for duty. They came lo make excusojnnd
to swear nl Iho governor. They had the
look of expectation and suspense which
Btands out on the faca ot tbo now recruit
when ho is ordered into his Ilrst action.
When Sheriff McCloary saw that hU pro-
clnmalfon was not meeting with Iho response
ho had hoped for. ho sent out his deputies
with summonses and they began with the
city directory nnd inn down the list as far
us "U , " until thov called 1,003 men lo appear
nrmcd. A majority of these mo'i w-jro
taken from the business housoi nnd most of
them were well dressed and well fed. Some
ol them ore rich. Some of thorn brought tholr
wives with thorn , und llio wives pleaded for
their husbands to be excused as they were
needed at homo. Some of thorn played the
old army dodge and dlsplnjed wounds and
"honorable discharges" from the service.
Komo of thorn had physicians' certificates of
Incapacity , honrl failure , near sightcdnoss
and other ailments.
A majority of them declared In the most
emphatic manner that they ivould go to jail
before thov would budge an inch toward
Homestead. They wanted lo know what was
the good in kccnlni ; an organized militia if
the citizens had to turn out and do Ibo lightIng -
Ing every time thcro was trouble lu Pennsyl
vania. Having thus declared themselves
they walked nut nnd neither the shurlfl nor
his deputies attempted to bring them back.
Those citizens do not refuse lo do duty be
cause ihoy hnvo any regard for Iho mon in
possession of the woncs , nor bec.xuso they
caio anything for Carnegie , nor because they
hnvo no tears to shed over the riddling the
Pinkortons received , but because they , the
citizens , do not proijoso to uo shot at to preserve -
servo anvboJy's property when thcro is n
militia in the state who o paid duly is to
do it.

HovrTru > , P.i. , July 7. [ Special Tolo-
faram to Tin : HicuJ It looks as if another
battle was al hand. The strikers bavo begun
to assemble nt Iho headquarters In Eighth
avcnuo to receive the arms stored Ihero for
use in case another nltompt bo made on thu
part of the company to force an entrance
with Pliikurton.s. Kirly in the evening
word was received from Plttsburg that
several car leads of Pinkcrtons wcro enrouto
for Homestead from Chicago. The strike
leaders gave the repoitlittlo credence , but il
found many believers among the men. It at
once assumed such proportions thai a special
detail was made to patrol the streets.
Tlio.v were instiucted to stop every stran
ger nnd make him give an account of him
self. In case ho tailed ho was to bo locked
up. Three or four of tbo special patrolmen
arc f.tationcd on every block , so thnt it is
next to nil impossibility for a nowsn tpjr man
to gut around without a guide in the way of
n striker. One Chicairo newspaper man was
nrrcsted three times and several others have
been arrested twice.
It Is feaied that , Mr. Frlcko miy bring his
mon by twos and throes. The picKcts around
the steel woiks nave been doubled. Tbo
local committee "is now In secret sussioa and
the members positively refuse to guo any
Infoimillion ns to what tha conimiltoo is
doiug.
Wiitc'hliiK Kicry Aiuntti' .
At 10:1)0 : ) the special natrolof strikers begun
to notify nil the mon with whom thov came
in contact to go ut once to the headquarters
nnd picputo to bo armed to icceivo tno Pin-
korton" . This had the effect of stiirmg up
the stiikera-all over the town. Women are
al almosl every iiato discussing the matter
with neighbors and calling to ono anolher
across iho street. Squads ot strikers are al
every depot in the town nnd thu ilvcr is
being closely watched. Kvory special freight
train is boarded nnd searched lo see if U has
aboard nny of Iho hated Pmkurlons.
It was said that two trains wrio coming-
one east and ono west. Thn electric light
whistle blow sharplv. That was the mgnal
for the people. An inquiry was made at the
works as lo who ordcieti the whistle blown.
The engineer Hiild lhal a man rushed In all
out of breath ni.d shouted : "Tho black
uhoep are coming , blow the whistle. "
I'liniily OnlutiMl lo n.
The superintendent blow It and then got
his pun and slipped out. The cIToct of blow
ing the whlstlo was soon socn In n crowd of
men who rushed from ovcry house and
every street corner. Hallos wcro given
and snots II red at tha ground to
attract attention. Many of the men
were armed with revolvers nnd billies
nnd about one lu ten carried a gun. No
body scorned to know nnvihing definite
about the affair , and moro pcr ons were
scekiiiL- information than securing it. All
strangers were closelv scanned.
It proved n falsa ulurni , and the strikers
went home grumbling at being called oul for

they choio to plum on ihc'ruwu property out
ot 11 Is auo'hor matter upon which
sentiment will differ , thotuhln this borough ,
where every man U a mill worker , only ono
opinion Is expressed.
I'ci'l Sorry for Mohlilii ) ; the Prisoners.
ThodarkoU story ot the whole affair Is
thai of the running of the gauntlet nftor the
surrender nnd brutality Indicted upon the
defenseless Pinkertons. Careful Inquiry
among eye witnesses show that the reports
of It wore not exaggerated and all that Iho
men c-m sny cannoi extenuate it , The
women were the most virulent and savngo
after the surrender and It was duo largely to
their acts nnd to their goading of iho men
that the leaders are unnbio to restrain thu
mob. Tales In nun.bor are told ot tno scenes
along the line of Iho gauntlet , Tbo Mine.
Uu Fargo of the movement was it woman
who stood near the headquarters nnd outdid
nil the tnnn. That tha moro intelligent men
roall/cd that mobbing of the defenseless
cannot but 'njuro tholr causa is shown bv
tholr sensitiveness to the publications on this
subject.
Whlln peace reigns today , It Is an armed
peace n truce foncd by the fact thnt there
Is nobody to light , r.ithor than n permanent
cessation of hostilities. No icasnnablo man
doubts foi u moment that iho lighting would
bo resumed al once if another attempt was
made to Itittoduce Pinkcrtou men Into the
town. Homostcad , so fur as the Introduc
tion of these mon goes , Is In n state of sicgo ,
nnd no man can cuter without his presence
being noted. A cordon of watchful , patient ,
serious workmen nro around iho cnllro city.
Every road Is guarded. Along the river ,
nbovo and below , on this bank and ou the
opposite bank , n ceaseless * patrol is main
tained. No boat , no party ot muti can como
alone without being followed , and if it I *
thought worth while , questioned Railroads
are watched. Two lines of road , Ibo Pennsyl
vania and thoPiltsburg \ Charleston , enter
the place , and a- , dusk fell a tour along the
tracks showed Hint at nearly every strcol
ciossing were from half u dozen lo Iwo score
of men walking up and down Iho track.
( iiiimlliifr Against Surprise.
The men intend thai Iho works shall not betaken
taken Dy surprise. They are stronger now
in numbers aud death-dealing equipments.
Hesidos llus thov are reinforced by the
piosllgj of last night's success nnd arrival of
a number of fellow workmen from outside
towns , bringing with thorn insurance ot sym
pathy on the part of their co-laborers and of
assistance tlnuticiully and physically if
needed.
A large number of mon , estimated as high
as 8'JO , arrived Into In Iho night from Pitts-
burg and today small numbori came from
various places. Wheeling sent twenty mill
mon from the Ohio iron region , well lilted
with money , us an advance guard. They
said ihoy wcro n. delogalioii from l.OJO iron
workers , who would lend financial aid and
would como hero to fight if their presence
was desired. They pay Ihelr own expenses.
What will happen If any attempt bo
made to secure the possession of the works
for thu linn wilh other than Pinkcrton
mon , is a question lo which nn answer can
not be made , as it will depend on the condi
tions surroundn. the attempt aud the dis
position of Iho men.
An intelligent man hero who symputhi/os
with ttii' workman and believed in the re-
sutnnco lo Plnuerlons , out condemns the
after tragedy , said this evening :
.Should thu Militia Come.
"I don't bolicvo tint if militia wore to
come and act us militia , und not como lieio
lighting , lhal any resistance would lu ofturod
to their taking possession ot the works. "
"What would bo the citccl if thu militia
came and iho llrm attempted to put In non
union mcnt"
"I guess , " said this gentleman , "that , the
solaicts would have to DO .strong enough to
march the troops in hero und keep thorn.
They would not bo allowed to go to tno
wotics if the mon could prevent it. "
' Bui how long can this last ! The firm will
waul to get the works going some time , and
if both sUcs cannot como to terms , what
thonj"
"I don't know , " was the response in n
candid tono. " 1 hope it won't lasi long , nnd
1 believe if tlio matter bad been gone al
right they could huvo settled the dllllcullv.
Them uio many who think the linn did not
euro very much If Ihe lioublodld conc. ; The
mun musl have a 'sluu' of ammunition. Thnv
had enough last night and now have lots
moro that they took from the Pinkortons. "
'Ihls last Bcntcnco Is stating mildly what
Iho slrikers slnto bluntly , and Is llio key lethe
the workmen's opinion of iho leason'thc
Plnkerlons were soul here and explains the
stubbornness of the light they mado. They
say that it had beet , known for a long time
lhal llio purpose of the llrm was to make the
mills u non-union establishment ami break
down the workman's organization. Tiiey
eharco that thu Pinkortons , notoriously ra-
gaideii with most billercnmily bv organi/ed
labor throughout the country , were tmr-
posolv sent here in tliu expectation that
thcro would bo a light and for tlio purpose of
killing , if need bo , in order lo carry ihu
point.
I'rr ii'hi'd n JCuiimrlc.tlilo siirmon.
The expression of the men found bucking
fiom the aged pastor uf ono of the Methodist
churches hero , who in a very remarkublo
sermon prcactcd ovur the body of John Mor
ris , the best known uud most popular of tha
killed workmen , said in unmistakable words
lhat in hit opinion the Pinkurtons bud boon
soul bora for blood if lhal were necessary for
the non-unioui/atlon of the mills. Hugavo
commendation to tlio workmen and evidently
's linn in his belief that to Mr. Prick
is to bo attributed all thu trouble between
employes and employed , nnd spoke of him in
scathing teuns as a man with no moro
sensibility than a toad. His speech , nsidu
from the nogallvo feature of the almost un
natural quiet nnd hush uf thu town , was the
event of the dnv.

Ono reason for the peaceful stnto ot af-

none ot the saloons wcro onun ,
A great deal of rellel was oxporluncod hv
the workmen nt tao now * thai Governor
Paulson had refused to order the mllltit
hero nnd the Inlolllgoricoof the ridiculous re
sult of the efforts of the sheriff to obtain n
strong posse left Iho Ivoritmcn In complete

loft IhU afternoon. It Is not possible to
snr with mathomutical certainty Just
what would follow should iho governor
order the troops hero. If tnoy were to como
simply to protect the property there Is no
occasion for their presence. They would
probably bo unmolested saving for the possi

Onlct ns n Now I'ngliiiiil Village.
It was rather Into in the morning before
Iho village was stirring nftor the light of Iho
previous day , nnd evcn _ Iho men were up
late the li'chl had nnido thorn tired. At 11
o'clock the town was us quiet nnd
peaceful as n JSow England \lliiigo. The
quiet was impressive on these strangers who
came to view tlio battle ground and who
looked in vain on the buildings in the upper
part of town for signs of tlio/flghliujr. livery-
thing seemed asleep. The storekeeper
scorned to have nothing to do. Their stores
were only half opened .
At the Amalgamated headquarters , a
largo thrco-slory buck building on iho
corner aboul n stone's throw from nnd In
full sight of lha milts , a dozen man were
gathcied In the doors of the ground en
trance , nnd three posted notices gave those
who entered Information of the Minerals of
inmnhura of the order. Theio was nothing
much lo learn from the men , thu loaders
being absent. >
Over at the mills everything was orderly.
The stiiHcrs , to piovo that thov had offered
in good fuith to protect the woiks , hunted
up the former watchmen on thn works und
again pat them In change. Tnuy were soon
iroinij their rounds. The funco , which hud
been loin down , \vaj rebuilt , thu yard
cleaned , things put in plucu and ns far as
oossiblo made to look as they had always
looked.
A tup along the river showed signs of the
conllicl in bu'lol ' holes , dent" ; , splinters Mid
cracks. The two barges wcro invisible.
They hud lloatcd down stream niter burning
to the water's edge and lilJod up completely.
During thu di.y itiero were numerous
stories of thu events nijc'at. John Morns , it
is said , mot his death lii his eagerness to sea

John Morris , oaa of the workmen killed. Ho
was 23 years of ago and married , but
with no children , 'ihii funerals took
place in close s'jcco > ston and they
were sad pi occasions which moved out
thiough the still lanes of upper
Homestead Into Ibo two little comotenoi
facing eich other on opposite sides of the
road , auout half a mile oul of town. Their
fellow workman aided in giving u decent
funeral und oscortoJ Iho boJics of Morris ,
Wain and Forbes , IhU Hungarian , lo their

The tunoral of Morris was more largely al-
lended than those ot either of thu others.
Morris w s u member of the Odd Fellows
nnd Knights of Pythias , nnd was also very
uopul.tr personally. The house in which
ho lived was tilled to overflowing with
bis iclutlvcs , of whom ho had many , nnd his
intimatu ausoeialoi. No services wuio hold
Iheio. The lunoral party moved to tno
Homestead Methodisl Episcopal el-urch ,
w hich wus nol larqo enough to accomodato the
thiong that sought admission. Too services
wore simple and performed amid the most
solemn hush. The sermon of the pastor.
Rev. J. J. Mclllieor , uu aged minister , was
sensational in its frankness. The widow
was present , supported by bur brother. His
mother sal in Ironl of them and her bout

\V\3iiivoTOX , D. C. , July 7 The speech of
Palmer today on Iho icsolutlons for an In
quiry .nto the battle nt Homestead between
the Plnkerton forces an i the striking work-
in on w.is remarkable for the advanced
position tulccu by the Illinois senator In main
taining the rlcht of factory and railroad em
ployes to coullnuous employment at reason
ably fair rates ol compensation.
Mr. Voorhcoj' speech on the nmo subject
was made up of nn ntluck ou lha republican
parly nnd Its policy of protection , to which
bo uscrlbud the crop of labor riots all over
Iho country.
Ho was replied to by Mr. Halo , who criti
cised him for converting such n er.ivu matter
as the linmostoad conlllct into n question ot
party politics ; uofended the republican party
Ironi nil responsibility for thnl conlllct , nnd
assumed for that pirty and Its policy of pro
tection the credit of the building up of such
great Industrial establishments us tboso at
Homestead and Ilothlohom.
The resolutions were referred to the com-
mllloe on contingent expenses and are sum
lo bo reported back for action and iiorhuus
for further debate tomorrow.
Kiiililoji'd u .Murderous CIIIIK.
In the course of the discussion Mr. Stownrt
said ll boomed beyond controversy thai Iho
malingers ot the Uarnoglo works had em
ployed u murderous gang. Whatever might
have preceded the trouble ; wnutovor Iho
laboring men might have done , thai did unl
mitigate the olTenso of bringing Into use an
armed band of assassins. Tiiat was n serious
blow to law nnd order. It endangered the
llfo and property of every citizen nnd on-
cour.iged anarchy. It was the most audacious
and outrageous transaction thai had occurred
in many yours. TlmtlJJO armed men should
have been Drought from different cities pre
pared for war ; brought in during the night
to make war upon Inoorers of the country ,
was a fuel thnt musl altract Iho attention of
the whole country and Ihnl could not bo con
demned in lee strong language.
.Mr. I'liltiiui'M Talk.
Mr. Palmer said that the presence of the
Pinlierlon armed force was in contempt of
the authority or the state. Its mnnnor was
menacing and insulting. It was dilllcnlt for
Aincilcjii elli/eus ( whether they wcro in the
tight or wronu'j lo submlllo be driven by an
armed force. He confessed that every im-
pjlse of his mind tempted 1.1 in to say that ho
should dislike being driven ( even though In
the \\roug ) by a power which might happen
to he in thu right. He maintained , however ,
thai these cili/.ons of Homestead were right.
He maintained that according to the princi
ples of law , which should hereafter bo ap
plied to the solution o ( those troubles , they
had the right to be there. That made It
nucuisarv lor him to assert that those men
had a light to employment there. They had
earned the right to hvo there. The larce
establishment would bavo lo bo hereafter
regarded as political establishments In u
modllled sense , and their owners would have
to uo regarded as holding thcjr nropoity sub
ject to tUo corclativo rights of these without
whoso services their iiroporty would bo ut
terly valueless , that only conceded to tncm a
ngnt to a reasouaolo prolll on tlio capital in
vested in their enterprises.
Hud n Kllit | to I'uriiKintMtt Kinployiiioiit.
Ho maintained furthermore tn.u these
workingmen , having spent , their lives in that
peculiar line of service , had the right to in
sist on the perm money or their employment ,
nnd that they bad n righl to insist also on a
reasonable compensation for their services.
Ho nmmlaincd lliul al the lima of Iho
assault on Iho o people al Homestead they
cro \ \ hero they h.id n nwht lobe. Tho'y
\veie on luo gioundon which thav hod a right
to bo found. They were conducting iht-in-
sclves In the line of their rights. Manufac-
tuiliigostablishmeiits wurr public institutions
just n railroads wcro. They wcro public
because they worked for the publin , because
the/ employed the public and because the
inon In tnulr service become unlit for oil.ci
service. While conceding the right of
capilullsts to control other properly and to u
reasonable toward for hU investment , lie
claimed that the laborer had the right to
permanent employment during good be
havior. Of coutse , the laborer was com
pelled to submit to Iho changes of business.
U hero the profits were small the parties
would hnvo to divide the less und where
they were largo they would hnvo to bo
divided. Thai , ho maintained , was thu law
today because law was Iho perfection of
lenson.
TO Ing to AIulu ) Politic.il Capital.
Mr. Voorhons treated the tragical occur
rences al Homestead as a practical commen
tary on Mr. Halo's resolution us to the el
fects of the two policies of "protection" nnd
"tarill for revenue only. " Labor liots were
not. he s.ud , the olfsprlng of the democratic
policy. Tliny had come under thu republican
policy of protection. Those poor people al
llomcsloadvho had laid down ihclr lives
had been led to bcllovo Ihnl ihe tariff wai
prolecling Ihom , bul thcro bus never been a
creator lie worked mid woven into thu legis
the country. The republican party
hud said that the grout inanufactuiing
barons bad to oo protected against foreign
competition , KO that they mighl bo able to
pay higher wages. Had they done sof Mr.
( Jnrncglo hud got n protection of f)5 nor cent
on iron and more than TO on steel nnu in
stead of paying higher wu.-tos ho had nolihed
them ot a reduction of irom 1to > 1U per
cent. The boncliciary of tno tarift system
had responded with the employment of an
tinned mob for Iho Plnkorton mun were a
mob. They were the mo.most inerconiirios
on the earth. They had taken their lives iu
their lianas nnd tuosa of them who were
killed had been killed by the workmen In
self defense. His only regret was thnt
Curneglo himself baa nut ooou ut the lioud ot
tbo squad iubtoad of skulking lu hU castle In
Hcotlaml.
Ilulo ItiipllcH ti ) Vonrliri-K.
Mr. Halo replied to Mr. Voornccs , denying
thu * the republican party was responsible
for tha troubles and claiming that llio credit
of building up such industries us those ut
Homestead and Ilothlohom was duo to that
parlv. There was another thing , ho said ,
which the republic in party was not respon
sible fet , and that was the employment of
the I'lnkorionu. Tha mercenary bad no
lodgement In the honrt of the American people
ple uxcopt In detestation. Ho characterized
the attack made on ' .be republican purly by
the Honator from Indiana us iuopportui'u ' uncl
intrnnivo.

there was a constitutional authority charged
with the execution of the law and with pun
ishment for its infraction. This authority
was responsible to Iho people. The Pinner-
Ion force was u privalo organization , hold for
hire. The force was under the control of no
government odloer. It constituted a privalo
und unauthorized militia force , ll was well
armed : II was well drilled. Liurgo bodies of
these armed and drilled mon had beu hired
by corporations engaged In interstnto com
merce and transportation of thu malls. Such
a body ol men was an anomaly in the land of
law und order. Never had I ho country n
better equipped and drilled militia than nl

grcelod him with a storm ot ubusu , Ihlnkinir
lha questions were put solely for the purtfoso

After a lime the crowd Insisted that Mr.
