llo.MKSTKAit, I'u.. .1 tilv —A secret conference over an hour in length wat held 1 htirsday evening bet weiMi the governor of IVnnsylvania. the president of tin- A'.:. aiiiat'd AsMuMatinn of Iron ami Steel Workers of Aineriea uml the chief legal ailviMT of t.lie ft.ooo striking em|»ln\es of the Carnegie mills. From almost every aspeet the meeting of tho trio was a remarkable one. the results of whieh, it. is believed, will long form landmark in the industrial, military and politieal afl'a rs of the state.

W.iutiln'l Tell What Wlirt Said. Neither (Jov. 1'iittison. Mr. Welhe nor Mr. Itrennan would consent to be quoted as to the nature of the discussion. It is said that the removal of the troops from Homestead and the bearing of that matter from eaeli possible standpoint were poue into. The politieal ell'eet of such action or its refusal is said to have been touched upon, as well as the coutiiigencv in the latter case of a renewal of strikes in the coke regions, with the hi lshed that seems inevitable in such an emergency. After the conference Messrs. Weiheand Hrcnuan explicitly denied that threats of any kind had been made to tiov. I'attison. They saiil that the conference was entirely satisfactory and are reported to have said privately to friends that if it proved as satisfactory as they hoped the whole trouble -.it the Carnegie mills would soon be quietly at an end. Itoth took the first train out of Homestead for l'ittsburgh. The best information obtainable an to (lov. I'attison's views is that no such roseate view is justified and that, come what may, the troops will not be moved till workmen, whether nonunion or not, can enter the mills at will, unarmed and unharmed.

No Desertion from the Strikers. The strikers claim, and apparently with good reason, that notwithstanding the presence of the militia or how many outsiders may have been taken into the mills the ranks of the strikers are unbroken. There was not a single desertion, they asserted, though Thursday was announced to be the last day on whieh applications to return to work could be made. This amounted to a triumph whieh they had scarcely ventured to expect. On the other hand, there seems no doubt that the force inside the mills was materially increased Thursday from oue source or another, the arrivals amounting, according to one conservative ostimate, to 150 men.

Strlko Movement Sprouting, The sympathetic strike movement among thf- workmen in the employ of the Carnegie company is assuming rather alarming proportions, and if the rumors now current should prove correct the strike will be one of the most aggressive in the history of strikes in the world. The latest branch of labor to take active-part in the movement in the aid of^ the Homestead loekedont men and the Amalgamated association is the coke-workers of the II. C. Krick Coke Company and the miners in the works operated by the company. Reports come from the coke regions that missionaries have been among these men and are making efforts to induce them to come out in a body. This, if successful, would shut off the supply of coke from the blast furnaces and would compel a suspension.

Thront* of Iln.vcottiiig.

HAIUIISIH lio, I'a., .Inly 'J'i.-— It. was asserted here by the delegates en route to the n.itionai convention of switchmen in l'ittsburgh 'that

tions will be adopted calling upon switchmen to refuse to handle cars carrying material to or from the Carnegie works until the Carnegie company'conies to terms with its men. The switchmen also say that the National Carpenters" union will ask its members not to use nails made by the Carnegie company.

O'Dosmell Surrenders.

I'lT-rsnritoii. I'a.. July ••2.—Hugh O'Donuell and Hugh Ross, against whom warrants had been issued, eauiejto this city, Thursday morning and held a consultation with their attorney, W. .1. Rrennun. A4 the close of their talk with Mr. Itrennan, tho two workmen proceeded to Alderman Me.Master's ofiicc and gave themselves up and were by him remanded to jail. Attorney Itrennan at once entered application for the release of Messrs. Ross and O'Donnell on ball. This request must be made to the judge of the county court, who has been asked by the attorney to grant an early hearing Mr. O'Donnell in an Interview expressed his confidence In his being released on bail, and his ability to ultimately prove his innocence of any crime.

There Is but little probability that O'Donnell and Itoss will get out of jail before Saturday. The criminal court finally adjourned for the day at noon Thursday and Judge Magee left for his home at that time. It is understood that the Carnegie company will a-k for the usual twenty-four hours' notice before the hearing. In this case the application cannot be considered until Saturday morning.

CHICAGO, duly 22.—Three men went to the rescue of Albert Szliga, who had been overcome by gas while in a vat in a tannery. Five minutes later two of them were dead, while the third was in Ills death throes, S/.liga, for whom they had given their lives, was the only one of the four who had entered the tank and survived. The accident happened in the tannery of Louis Hnck Son, at the corner of Elston avenue and Hrndley street, shortly after o'clock Thursday afternoon. The three men who sacrificed their lives for S/.Hgn were: Carl Stelnert, John Kybarc/.ky and Prank Spekowski. The last two were married.

Cleaning Unused Vats.

All four of the men were laborers in the tannery. Albert Szliga had been cleaning out a large vat whieh had not been used for some years. The slime had to be balled out with buckets. A ladder was put down in the vat. Szliga filled it and passed it up to one of the men, who in turn gave it to the men outside the tank. Shortly before 2 o'clock Szliga commenced to feel di -.zy. lie climbed out, and after reaching the fresh air felt all right, l-aghting his pipe he returned to work, but he had scarcely reached the bottom before the foul gas extinguished his pipe.

Overcome by the lius.

lie started to ascend the ladder, but fell back senseless in the dirty siush. The men at the top heard the splash and Uybarezyk immediately went down the ladder to bring hitn out. Stienert and Spekowski heard Uybarezyk give! a cry and then tumble from the ladder, and Stienert began the descent of the ladder, while his companion called for help. Before it arrived Spekowski heard Steincrt full and hastened down In hopes of saving one of his three, companions.

When a dozen of the tannery employes reached the scene the fatal vat held the still forms of the four men.

Charles (iunlroth hurriedly tied rope about his body and he was slowly letdown into the death-dealing vapor. A sudden jerk on the rope told those above that he also had been aflVcted. lie was pulled up, but soon recovered and pluekily insisted that he be allowed to go to the rescue again. This time he succeeded in getting a rope around Szliga's body, which waa hoisted out of the

k'jur.k."

There were signs

of life, and while (»nntroth was again descending into the vat the unconscious man was carried into the open air. where lie soon revived. The rope was tied to Spekowski. Kvburszyk and Steincrt in «juick succession. Spekowski was also alive, but the other two were dead. All three were carried to the sidewalk in front of the establishment and then* Drs. Kozarkowski and Rawkowski. who had in the. meantime been called, did all in their power to resuscitate the men. Spekowski \va.s taken to the Alexian Brothers' hospital, but died after having been in that institution but a short time.

RETALIATION.

The House Parses the Itlll to Hrlng Cnnadu to Terms. WASHINGTON. July 22.—The most important, legislation passed by the house Thursday was the bill to enforce reciprocal commercial relations between the I'niteil States and Canada. The president has sent two messages to congress on the subject, ..ml the house passed the measure without division and sent it at once to the senate. It was laid before that body just before adjournment nnd placed on the calendar. The promptness indicates that, the congress Is much in earnest in this matter that the president will be heartily supported and the great interest involved protected.

As the president, has recommended the legislation there can be no doubt of his action upon the bill when it reaches him. Moreover, It is only the first step in retaliation on the part of this government, for if it fails of its purpose it may be followed up by the enactment of other pending bills that are much more stringent in terms:' for instance, cutting off the immensely valuable privilege now enjoyed by the Canadians of shipping goods through the I'liited States in bond and without the payment of duty, and imposing discriminating duties against European anil Chinese imports entering the I'niteil States via Canada.
