HOMESTEAD,
l-'a., July 13. —The na
tional guard took possession of the Carnegie mills at Tuesday morning. It was a peaceful surrender. Within an hour an army was encamped on the great slope overlooking the mills and the Monongahela. Guards ail'' pickets were scattered along the clusty roadways and the triumph of 'ie military authorities was complete. Good order marked the arrival.
Hundreds of sullen and angry men stood 111 their doorways and watched the regiments of armed men form in battle lines on the crest of the hill. Others gathered along the pike that skirts the great steel mills and cheered the companies as they marched by. It was the most imposing and significant display of military strength ever made in Pennsylvania.
The* Hayonetg Arrive.
Almost exactly at 8:30 a long train puffed slowly around the horseshoe bend and into the siding. Shining guns and blue caps were sticking out the windows. On every platform was a sentinel with set bayonet. This train carried the Eighteenth regiment of Pittsburgh, a part of the Second brigade. Before ithalteda train of two sleeping cars pulled in on another track. Gen. Snowden, division commander, with his entire staff, in swords and gold braid, alighted to take a hasty view of the situation. More trains came rolling in on the network of tracks and in five minuteB time companies were forming along the cinder paths and the air was full of sharp commands. Toward the town it could be seen that the news had already spread, for hundreds of people were gathering along Eighth avenue or hurrying toward the Munhill station, which is opposite the main entrance to the mills. Sheriff McCleary was with
Gen. Snowden. Monday evening he joined the troops at their rendezvous and came with the commander to advise a plan of campaign.
Contrary to expectations the soldiers did not go to the mill gates. The Eighteenth, marching four abreast, turned to the left and led the way up the bare hill that fronts the half-mile strip of the Carnegie mills. Across this hill two streets are being cut in the shale and rock and they resemble trenches. The Eighteenth marched more than half way to the top and massed its men. Three companies had been left at the bottom.
Then came the Fifteenth, headed by fife and drum, the men with their gray slouch hats and canvas leggins making a picturesque and warlike appearance. Next marched the Sixteenth, another small army. By the time the Fifth regiment drew into the rear an immense strip of armed men reached up the incline almost a quarter of a mile.
Formed a Line of Ilattle.
Everything moved with the precision of clockwork. A scattering line of pickets was put across tne hill half way up and then the regiments quickly moved to the places assigned thern. They formed in line of battle across the length of the slope. Col. W. A. Kreps, of the Fifteenth regiment, was in command of the hill forces. Col. Smith, of the Eighteenth, was second in rank. Their plans had been laid. No hesitation was shown.
Down the hill a hundred yaTde and occupying a terrace formed by the .cutting out of a street was the Fifteenth regiment. Further down to the extreme right was massed the Fifth under Col. Burehfield and to the left was the Sixteenth under Col. Willis J. Hulings. There were '2,000 men on the hill and already far across the gleaming river could be seen the bayonets of the provisional brigade under Col. Hawkins, which was guarding the approaches I to the Pemieky bridge and protecting the north shore of the Monongahela.
The Town Aired and Silent.
It was not strange that the town between these two armies was awed and quiet. No one expected a fight, but every military precaution was taken. The •engineer corps at once began observa- 1 tions and calculated the distances from I the hill to the mill yards and other snrrounding points in caw. any firing should be necessary. Col. Charles S. Green, a veteran of the division staff. was appointed prorost marshal, and soon had his guards stationed out in every direction.
At first there was no attempt to keep visitors away from the lines and many of the Homestead men toiled up the hill to converse pleasantly with the resting I soldiers and tell how glad they were to welcome the state authorities. The regiments had hardly ranged themselves along the high slope until a dctacliment consisting of three companies •. from the Eighteenth regiment and one from the Fifteenth, under command of Maj. Kay, marched along the front of the hill down into the town, Along the white fences of the mills and about the Amalgamated association headquarters large numbers of tho strikers were collected. They opened a way for the soldiers and cheered 1 hem loudly. The march down into the town and back was intended simply as an object lesson—a notification that 1 the militia had arrived and was ready to proerve order.
No mil- to Out tin- t: l:::! s. In spite of the proclamation given out by the burgess Mondav night the saloons were open and there was a dangerous amount oi drinking. The great, welcome which had been arranged by the advisor .' connn.ttee failed to materialize. The troops came .vit.iiout warnina" and there was no time to L'et out the br :s bsinds. George (. hamper, one th^.cuili:u.It. UIUl ubju.iwM-.ivr ill .iC
strike, was on hand at tho train to ex plain the situation to Gen. Sn uvden. He was inild and even profoundly humble in his demeanor. "General." said he, touching his hat an awkward nianner, *'we had arranged to give you a formal reception, with music and a inarching delegation, but yoiu -are in too earl v." "M.v coin-in.tf early was intentional." replied the commander in chilly tones "the occasion does not call for any reception committee or bauds. If there' had not been a wreck 30 miles east of
Pittsburgh we would have been here at daylight. We are under orders and could not take part in any jollification."
Mr. Champer said the boys merclj" wished to show that they respected the authority of the st:.tc and did not intend to oppose the governor's wishes, but Gen. Snowdon terminated the interview by proceeding to give some commands to his subordinates.
Later
011
the advisory committee
representatives visited Gen. Snowden to inform him that that committee would cooperate with the troops in preserving order. They were, received politely but coldly by the general, who said: "We do not need either cooperation or assistance from anybody. The only way in which we can accept cooperation is for every man to go peaceably about his business."
Will Leaders lto .Arrewt pit
Late in the afternoon it was reported that instead of immediately sending in new mill hands the Carnegie company would cause the arrest of all men known to be connected with the I'inkerton fight. It was said that the sheriff and Deputy Gray, both of whom arrived with the militia, would make the arrests under the protection of the troops. This suspicion grew after the committee, led by Hugh O'Donnell, called at division headquarters and Gen. Snowden refused to permit any demonstration of welcome and told the men very plainly that they had been defying the law ever since the attack upon the Piulcertons.
