Over 2,000 people congregated on Jefferson
square last evening In response to a call of
the Knights of Labor for a mass meeting to
discuss the Homestead riots. The majority
of the listeners were worklngmon and tbolr
attitude was one of earnest attention , which
nt times warmed Into onthusiasllo approval
of the sentiments of the speakers.
Hero and there n woman was to bo soon ,
nnd they scorned as deeply Interested In the
proceedings as the men ,
The applause that greeted tbo speakers
was frequent and enthusiastic , but aside
from this no sound disturbed the quiet ot
the meeting.
It was nsingularly orderly assemblage ,
considering the number of people present ,
und Iho speakers skillfully turned It to ac
count for the people's party. They painted
tno wrongs of the laboring classes in lurid
colors and vehemently asserted that the only
relief was to bo found under the standard of
the ( ' .dependents.
Van Wyi'k'rt llooni Vlimtoil ,
. Incidentally the occasion also served as a
receptacle into which General Van Wyck's
gubernatorial boom was ofllclally launched
ntnld cheers of various degrees of approval.
The meeting was called to order by Mrs.
J. M. Kenney , district master workman of
the Knights of Labor , who introduced Mr. II.
Cohen ns chairman. The speakers hud not
yet arrived and D. Clom Doavor was Intro
duced to occupy the interval. Mr. Dnvor (
remarked that things bad been going from
bad to worse until there was bloodshed and
Rtrifo where all should bo peace and lovo.
Corporations had Imported hired assassins to
destroy thu lives of tnelr employes and It was
time that American freemen assorted them
selves or a government controlled by monop
olies would grind them down as tbo hireling
sluvosof Europe. The laboring classes must
take the law Into their own hands or the
occurrences at Homestead would bo noth
ing to the tragedies that would swoop over
the country.
\Vitrhorsc or tlio Soconil Ward.
When the speaker bnd concluded someone
in tbo crowd called for Isaac Hascall and
that gentleman mounted the platform.
Mr. Hascall said that the men ho saw be
fore him \vcro there in the cause of labor as
against the greatest grievance of the ngo.
The circumstances of tbu past week should
make tbo musses stand shoulder to shoulder
against a greater slavery than that which
chained the African race In the south. The
forces of monopoly would eventually crowd
the laboring people into thu dust unless they
ussertcd Ihoir riulits. Because Carnegie ,
Plupns & Co. had madn $ .2,000,000 during the
past ytmr they wanted to make ? : t,000,000
this year , und had attempted to reduce tbo
wages of their employes , when they thorn-
solves weio making SS.OCO every d.iy. When
ever the laboring people demanded their
rights they were called anarchists , but there
was a higher law than the law of the land
when Carnegie demanded that the troops
ituould be calkd in lo help him to starve
r.,000 people.
At this point General Van Wyck arrived
nnd was greeted with a volley of applause.
After this hud subsided Mr. Hascall con
tinued.

"Aro you goiiu to lot Carnegie bring In n
sot of scabs to run his works , whtlu honest
men starve I It would bo boiler that every
onuof these protected mills scattered through
the country should go up In Humes than that
the laboring classes should go down to pov
erty and starvation. I urn glad lo see hero

him the next governor of Nebraska and Gen
eral Weaver the next president of the Unltod

General Van Wyck stepped forward nnd
was enthusiastically greeted. Ho said :
WIIH tllml to See Tlioin.
"My Friends : I am glad to moot with
you a lilllo while tonight. I am glad to
meet my old friend , Hiuoall , hero tonight.
Ho and I have struggled u good deal In

not ; but wo nro on the same platform

"Now , my friends , there Is nothlngstrango
nbout this , only It Is wonderful that upon ono
clay's notlco such an Immense- crowd could
tjugathutcd bore ; but it Is because the
human heart , Is stirred. I Imvo soon such
scones before the war , when tl.o human
heart was stirred in sympathy with tbo o
who wore sutijecled to the lash and required

"These Homestead matters are simply tbo
natural result of their struggle with those

that has ocen preached from tbu foundation
of tbo world until now , that man should bo

Touched Up ( 'arnoglo ,
"Such men ns Carnegie control congress
on thu tariff question. They are the men
who can put up millions for a campaign
fund , nml then they own Iho administration
after It Is elected. Carnoirle gives millions
to found libraries when his men do not
wnnt books , but broad. Ho llxod n scale of
wages four years ago and assured bis em
ploye * that it would continue. Trusting m
this assurance they saved n part of their
wages and built 'bouses , and there Is
a mortgage on ovcry one of these
houses. Now they nro loft with the
homes nnd the mortgages on tholr hands.
The men beg him to nrbitralo , but Carnoglo
brushes them to ono side and says 'No. '
Tboy must either work und no slaves or
starve. What right has Carnegie to hire
! tUO men from the slums of Now York nnd
Chicago , arm them with Winchester rules
and send them there to murder nls em
ployes ? Where are the Christian churches
and tbu republican Institutions of this coun
try that they do not cry out ngalnst this
monstrcus ovll )
"Theso Pinkertons wore sent tnero to
murder men In cold blood , nnd they did It.
"Some tlmo ngo there was a grout senti
ment iu this country against tbo Chinese ,
who. it was claimed , earned tholr money
hero nnd then wont back to China to enjoy
it nnd never became American citizens.
This follow Carnegie , who has never been
naturalized , comes over hero to make his
money. Ho has laws made to further bis In
terests , makes bis millions and then goes
over to his castle in Scotland lo spend them.
The Chinaman is a little bit the better of the
two , ain't ho ? Some people prcacb to us
thut wo must bo contented. If no Ono was
over discontented there Would never bo any
improvements In this world.

"I don't want to say an uniclnd word of
anybody , but ain't It quocr. don't you know ,
that tbo gniat Methodist church that was so
prominent In the defense of liberty at the
time of the war does not have anything to
say on this jruat question of the liberty of
the masses. When this general conference
met in Omaha sotno ono Introduced a resolu
tion on the labor quostion. And now re
member , I do not wnnt to say anything un
kind about these dear , peed bishops , and no
doubt they were acting as good , kind nursery
mothers when they bent this resolution to a
committed where It was qulelly rocked lo
sloop. The world is not growl'ig better very
fast not very fast. There is a conllict com
ing which will novcrond until Labor has the
right to nnmo Us wages. Where are your
good , consorvalivc churches in this conllict }
Why do not these preachers crv out against
the wanton , wicked murders ut Homestead ?
"Jay Gould and Carnegie and man like
them rule this country. Those men
have bcon made milllonures by the tariff.
Have you heard of ono ot tneir men having
become millionaires J And still some people
claim that the tariff protects the laboring
man. There Is but ono'lovulor in this coun
try nnd that is death. If Jay Gould nnd
Carnegie con Kl live ns long as Molhuselah
they would own it all , but they can't take
tholr gold with them , and if they did it
would molt where they nro going. Lot us bo
true lo ourselves and each other nnd Inaugu
rate a system that will put a dollar into th o
pocket of every man who cams it. "
I'aiit Wound U l/ ] > .
The speaker sat down nmld continued ap
plause , nnd then the chairman introduced
Paul Vandurvoort as the loader of the Grand
Army of the Republic. For some reason the
crowd did not wax us enthusiastic as when
the previous speakers were proseuled.
Someone clojo to I bo stand started a little
band clapping , which was taken up hero and
there In the crowd , but Mr. Vandorvoort did
not have to wait for any "volleys of ap
plause" to subside before ho was able to
inaku hlmsolf hoard.
Ho began his speech oy the statement
that bo was glad to speak in a cause in
which bib heart was interested. There wore
many old soldiers employed in the various
mills on the Monongahcla river and his soul
was sllrrod by the contemplallon of their
wrongs. Ho rofoirod to Carnegie's liberal
donations lo publlo libraries while a "slalo
of facts" existed In bis great works that was
not ut nil to his credit. Ho told bow
a band of hired thugs had "Invaded the
peaceful valley while the morning sun
was just stealing over the eastern
horizon. " The eastern papers subsidized by
'
Iho old parlies oriuoisod'lheslrikors because
homo of Iho Plnkorions had had the clothes
torn from their bucks , but it spoke volumes
for the forbearance und law-abldinc quali
ties of the men that ono of the hired assas
sins was loft to toll tno story.
Only Ono Way Out of It.
This Homestead atlnlr was only ouo of
many , and the ouly peaceful solution of tbo
problem was for the masses to unite with tlio
farmers and vote iho white-winged ballots of
the people's party. Tnelr cause was u com
mon ono , for both of the old parties worn
owned by the bondholders and capitalists
of tills country and Europe. Ho eulogized
"Vun Wyck and Weaver und added another
endorsement to tbo gubernatorial hopes of
the former. An effort was being made to
prevent the Jifty-soven votes belonging to
Omuba to be registered for Van Wvclc in
the convention and ho urged iho voters lo see
that their primaries wuro not tampered with ,
l.oailDil with Kosolvo * .
Colonel Brown was the ! a t speaker nnd ho
Introduced u preamble and resolution
that was unanimously adopted. It was
a speech of itself und the reading
consumed a quarter of an hour. It
warned tbo wage workers of Homestead that
Ihu action of Carnoglo was a part nl a dia
bolical plot to embroil thu Inooring classes in
a general war or extermination all over iho
country through taking advantage of the dif
ferences existing between organized nnd un
organized labor. There should uo no war
between them. They should unlto with the
people's party nnd inaugurate a now condl-
lion of things. They should not exhaust
their efforts In a fruitless opposition to tno
troopsbut trust to the ballot to retrieve tuuir
wrongs.
A copv of the resolution was ordered to bo
sent to the wnijo workers at Homestead and
thus to bo furnished to the pros * . In con
clusion Mr. Brown proposed three cheers for
Van Wyck und three more for Vundorvoort.
After the echo of tbo cheers had died away
thu meeting was declared adjourned.

LO.NMIONJuly 13. The chagrin of the liberals -
orals over the small majority obtained by Mr.
Gladstone has boon mitigated by the unex
pected series of successes they achieved in
tbo counties.
"It is the best day wo have known , " said
a momnor of the liberal executive committee
to a representative of the Associated Press
this evening. "Tomorrow will see us topping -
ping , through today's pollings , the present
small numerical unionist majority by at least
twenty scats.Vo are now assured of a
clear majority ot titty-live in the next parlia
ment , and wo arc almost Justified In expect
ing oven sixty. "
Mr , Gladstone Is not disheartened by the
result of the polling in Midlothian. Ho know
that Colonel Wauchopo was a stroiie op
ponent and had oxpuotud that thu poll would
show a ho.ivy reduced liberal majority. Cer
tain liberals now admit that another general
election Is nigh nnd regarded as inevitable
uutiug 1MI3 ,
Mr. Gladstone , In a communication to the
Star tonight , warns the liberals to prepare
for the next election as likely to como "llko
u thlof in the night. "
Iho independent laborlsts moan to em
phasize their freedom from party tlus bv
sitting In the bouso with the conservative
opposition.
The conservatives consider that the
change of Mr. Gladstone's former majority
of 4,031 into n majority of only OflO is the
greatest triumph scored by either side
throughout the elections. The chief signific
ance u ( the event is tno evidence it gives of the
revulsion of feeling in Scotland towards tno
liberal unionists and of the fact that Mr.
Gladstone's personality Is losing weight with
tbo electors throughout the country.

Mr. PoiTor offered an amendment to add
to the section , a provision prohibiting the

Mr. Poffor subsequently modified thn

Mr. Vest ridiculed the amendment and
said that tbo eminent reformers who had
taken hold of the matter ought ( In order to
be consistent. ) include "cignrotto smoking"
in their denunciation It being more to bo
deprecated than the drinking of n glass of
beer or wine , but the whole thing was vank
hypocrisy , and the senators know n-rank
hypocrisy. If senators wanted to commence
such reforms why did they not commence

he had the money to pay for It fLaughtor.J
He could buy It , too , from a citizen nf Maine ,

Dead as n door nail Is Iho free cjlnago bill ,
at least so fur us this congress Is concerned.
By a majority ot elghtcnn the house today
'
refused to consider the Stownrt sliver ull'l
Which passed Iho senate two-veoks ago. The
measure was railroaded through the commit
tee , but tbo very decide 1 blow elvon It by
the hotisu Itself kills It finally , nnd no moro
will bo hoard of it.
A number of republicans who are oppose * ?
to free colnaco voted to give Iho bill n hear
ing today bccnu to thev wanted nn oppot
tunity to count their votes directly ngulnsi
lu Some of thu'ii are outspoken lu their belief
lief that Its adoption by the house would
bavo strengthened President Harrison before
thu country , as ho could Imvo given it n vote
message which would have placed him and
his uartv upon a very high and Jinn llnnnclal
platform.
It Is believed now that the voters of the
Eleventh Mls-souri district will awaken to
the fact that Mr. Bland , Their congressman ,
who has lived oit their crcdulitv lor many
years by making them believe ho would go't
thorn plenty ol money , has not boon acting
in good tnlth and they will excuse him from
further representation hero. His voice ,
which has moro nolso than influence behind
It , has done more to imiko free coinage
ridiculous than anything else. The Cleveland -
land clement of the democracy , ns ropro.
soutod in the house , has succeeded at
a late hour by the defeat of thij
bill into getting itself in line with the notion
of the Chicago convention In straddling thu
silver quostion. The defeat of the bill , however -
over , as MI analysis of the vote will show ,
was really accomplished by the repub
lican minority , aided by the anil-sliver group
of democrats , whoso numbers were increased
by several unwilling recruits. The political
result of the defeat of the bill is to incroasu
the division of scutlmont among democrats
nnd also to Increase the hope of the third
party lenders that the nlllnnco ticket will
make an inroad iu the solid south ,
To luy forSu.tjap Lands ,
