GI:TIINO UKADV FOH WOUH. MOMKSTHAI), I'a., July 1(1. Short pull.', of white smoke from the armor-j plate machine shop and the annealing shop in tin Carnegie works convinced both loelfed-out men and troops that the managers intend keep their word and start the mills in operation. The men were greatly excited over the signs of business in the works. An inquiry developed the fact that the pumps in the two most important departments had been started preliminary to a general resumption of business. The lockedout men, through the reports of their pickets, knew that no considerable number of men had entered the town, and wondered where the company was securing workmen. At the ofllces of the works it was said that about forty men, mainly laborers, with a few men from the other Carnegie works, were at work (retting the machinery ready for use. It is not the intention of the mill-owners to introduce new men until Monday. The lockod-out men offered no objection to the signs of activity and Wept away from the vicinity of the worlts. Three companies of infantry quartered near the high fence of the mills stood ready to resent any interference. None came.

Sfcurliii Non-Union Men.

Labor unious in other cities are keeping the Amalgamated association advised of the efforts of the Carnegie company to secure labor. Their efforts are said to be confined to Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis, and in each of these cities some have been secured, altnongh the reports of tlie numbers received here are very contradictory. However that may be, the fact is conceded that a body of nonunion men has been gotten together by the Carnegie company and that all the prepai ations have been made for pushing them into the works.

How (lie Mim 4':tmu In.

At i! o'clock Friday morning fifty men were unloaded at a point near Swissvale and escorted overland 1 mile by a guard of the militia to the Monongahsla river opposite the Homestead works. There they boarded the steamer Littlo Hill and were transported across the river to the company's property. About the same time cots, provisions and other supplies in great quantity were taken into the mill property. There was enough stuff in the consignment to accommodate at least 400 men. Superintendent Potter Instituted a complete search of every portion of the mills for dynamite or other explosives. If any was found the discovery was not made known. It seems now that it is only a question of time till the mills are placed in operation.

Strlltm*» Will Depend on the lloj-rott. In discussing tho situation Hugh O'Donnell said: "We will fluhl this strike out on legitimate Unco: en the original piun inuppctl out by the committee. Tho Pliikerton Incident has put a fulse complexion on uflairs unit clmnged the limine! of the public's estimation of our rights und wrongs. Mnuy people think we intend endeavoring to maintain our position by lawless leeans. Such never was our Intention. The workman's only effective weapon, the iHjycott, will be employed, and we will endeavor to strike blow at Carnegie's every Industry. It In Mated that lie Intends starving us Into submission. We have not as much money us he. but we are willing to meet him on his own prounds. Such assistance as the strike of the l-awrcncevillc mills and the action of carpenters in refusing to work in buildings where Carnegie beams or materials are used is what iv.' want. Help us that way and we will win. I'll guarantee there will be no harm offered non union men coming here, but 1 cannot offer tin Hume protection guarantee to ruikc-rtous. for ovi rv in..11, wnman und child in lii'iii! ..!r.,il goes wild at the mention of one."

Mr. O'lJonncll was asked what chance the I'arncgies have to start the mills with deserters from the amalgamated ranks. "None in the world," said he. "There is not a man who will desert the association—not a single man. There has probably never been such a unanimity of opinion in a strike in this country and we will present an unbroken front to the end. Mr. Carnegie may lie able to get non-union laborers, helpers, blacksmiths, mechanics, carpenters and painters, but all of these have to depend on the skilled men who make the steel. Without the rollers, heaters, shearers, cutters and other high-priced workmen the mills cannot start, and it is this class of men on whom we have tho hold."

Will Not. (ilVA 1'p the CfUttN. Mr. O'Donnell is in a strange position as regards tho captured l'inkerton rifles. He telegraphed the attorney general to find out what he should do with the guns, and the answer came to consult the district attorney. In the meantime the less conservative leaders have refused to give up the Winchesters and O'Donnell will be compelled lo break his implied promise to surrender the captured firearms

Boj'rott tho Troops.

The union sentiment is very strong in Homestead. Across from the main gate to the, worlts is the Carnegie ,iiotel for tho clerks and officials of tho company. (Jen. Snowden and staff and Superintendent Potter have been boarding there. Friday morning at breakfast time the waiter girls and tho cook went 011 a strike, saying they would not servo the soldiers or .the Carnegie employes. nixhop Fallows Talks.

Rt.-ltov. Samuel Fallows, Reformed Episcopal bishop of Chicago, was ono of the gentlemen who addressed tho meeting of the locked out men Friday morning. Tho bishop lias been attending the Christian Endeavor oonferenoc in New York and stopped in Pittsburgh on his way home to sco for himself the condition of affairs in Homestead. When lie learned of the meeting lie went to the rink and nsWcd admittance, which was promptly given hiin. THo bishoi) was escorted to the platform

If you now jierscverc along the lines which you have marked out for yourselves, which mean steady obedience to American law and steadfast resistance to un-Amer-ican attempts to wrong you, you will find that tho people of this country are with you and will be with you to the bitter end.

Strikers Well Armed.

Oen. Snowdeu has been making a quiet investigation into the actual armament of the strikers. It is believed that there arc in Homestead about'J,000 stand of arms of all sorts, including shotguns, old army muskets, sporting rillcs and Winchesters, which belong to the men, and which cannot, save in the case of actual hostilities, bo taken away from them. Hcsldes these arc the captured Pinkerton guns and a great many w,l\v vh of all patterns. Ammunition is

YDUNG BAPTISTS.

I'rnecrdlngs of Their Convention at Detroit— OfllccrM Chosen. DKTHOIT, Mich., July 10.—Ilev. Everett D. Hurr, of Hoston, who is the possessor of a rich baritone voice, led the half hour song service which opened the convention of the Young People's Uaptist union Friday morning, lie v. I)r. H. D. Thomas, pastor of the Jarvis Street ltaptist church of Toronto, Ont., offered prayer and then the committee on important topics was read by Rev. John Humpston. of Brooklyn. J. Ti. Cranllll, of Dallas, Tex., the candidate for vice president on the national prohibition ticket, occupied the chair during the session and wa-s an eflielent and admirable presiding officer.

Then came tho salute of flags, one of the most inspiring spectacles of the session. Eaoh state had a flag and each flag bore a motto. The banners were carried by little misses of Detroit. Scarcely had the line of twenty-one states been completed when Dr. Lansing Burroughs, of Augusta, Oa., arose in the east part of the hall. Although he came from a group of states, said he, which was not represented, he had a banner, and without further words lie unfurled a large American flag. Handkerchiefs were waved and the audience broke out in "Onward, Christian Soldiers." This was followed by the reports of states, territories and other divisions. All showed much progress for tho year. At the conclusion of these reports Rev. Lansing Burroughs, of Georgia, spoke briefly, lie was followed by Rev. B. Tupper, of Denver, who closed the morning session by an address on "The Supreme Mission of Baptists."

The following national officers were elected, .and the afternoon session closed with state and provincial rallies: President. John 11. Chapman, of Chicago vice presidents, Rev. J. H. Cranfill, of Dallas, Tex., Thomas Urquliart, of Toronto, Ont., Frank Harvey Field, of New York city recording secretary. R. F. Y. Pierce, of New Jersey treasurer, J. O. Staples, of Chicago.

In the evening the praise meeting was led by .1. 0. Staples, of Chicago. The principal event of the evening was an open discussion on the Sunday closing of the gates of the world's fair. The remainder of the session W LS taken up with addresses

PEOKIA, 111., July 10.—A boy skirmishing along the shore succeeded in accomplishing something the divers at •the wreck of the Frankie Folsoin, who putin all the night at work, could not do, in the linding of the body of Mrs. Bocue, the wife of the Dnluth telegraph operator. Mrs. Heche's remains were discovered floating in the water Jit. the foot of Haywood street. Thursday night, the body of lirant Ilcpler, the Eureka dentist, wus found floating near the wreck by a man named

The opposition is made up of English, Welsh and Scotch liberals (including :t laborites), 5!) anli-Parncllito and 8 Parnellites.

SPOKAXK, Wash., July 10.—A telephone from Wardncr says thai !cti. Carlin has arrested 100 union strikers at Wardne? and placed them under guard. The arrests have caused intense excitement and violence is liable to break out at any moment. The military arrested JacW Wallace at Oatalde. He is suspected of being the ringleader in the Mission massacre,

1

and runs a low resort in that country. The troops are deploying from Catalde and it is thought the hills will be scoured for other suspects. Oen. Cnrlin now has 1,000 troops under his command and has called on all members of the Miners' union to come in and surrender. Citizens are jubilant over the action of the authorities and as some tough striker would be pointed out they would cry "Good! good!" and gave every token of pleasure at the downfall of the regime of the mob. The universal sentiment is favorable to martial law and the preservation of order.

The wholesale arrest of members of the union, including both President O'Brien and Secretary Boynton, has increased the ill feeling already existing. Owing to the disposition of Gen. Carlin's forces tliey find it extremely difficult to make any move, but the blowing up of the bridge and telegraph poles Thursday night clearly indicates that the men are not without resources.

Not Vet Subdued.

Notwithstanding the presence of the troops, the strikers continue to make their presence felt, and are still order-' ing spotted individuals out of the conntry. Newspaper correspondents arc particularly objectionable to them. The three car loads of non-union miners taken back to Wardncr were taken in under the protection of the regular troops, ami no disturbance was raised upon their arrival.

While the strikers are apparently submitting to the rule of the military and numbers have already surrendered, tus stated above, the fact is that they are playing a waiting game. They had driven every non-union man out of the 1 district and arc much angered at the troops for escorting them in again. Itn-1 mense quantities of dynamite werel known to be in their pos-' session, and it is not believed all of it has been used in the destruction of the Gem and Frisco mills and railroad bridges. Where the rest of it is is a question not only asked by the people, but lien. Curtis. Gen. Carlin, and the forces commanded by them. The rigid rules enforced by the troops, under the proclamation of martial law, evidently annoy the union men and they have by no means come to the conclusion that they will abandon the fight.

Wild Storle* Not Wrlllod.

Fugitives from Mission continue to straggle into Spokane. So far none of the wild stories about heavy loss of life there have been verified. One wounded man has been picked up and now lies in the hospital at Wallace. The troops and others are searching Fourth of July canyon. It is not likely that the truth will ever be learned about this shocking affair. The country is wild, and murderers could easily have concealed the bodies of victims or have thrown them into ^he river.

The ^strikers also cut. down a number of poles, thus shutting off communication by that route for a time. The (Jem and Granite mines are all right.
