MONDAY MORNING, JULY 18, 1892.
STRIKING IRON WORKERS.
A Very Quiet Sunday on the
Monongahela.
No Change in the Situation at
Homestead.
An Important Mass Meeting of Non-
Union Laborers.
They Resolve to Stand by the Amal
gamated Association —Sympathy
From All Sides for the
Strikers.
By ttie Associated Press.]
Homestead, Pa., July 17.—A1l is quiet
on the Monongahela, and it has been a
most quiet Sunday. New men are con
fidently expected before the formal
re-opening of the works Thursday, but
the strike leaders do not believe any of
them will be introduced until after it is
seen how many applications for work
are made by old men. That some will
return is quite certain.
A mass meeting of the men in the
mechanical department and day labor
ers was held this morning. The men
are not members of the Amalgamated
association, but have been in sympathy
with it. At the meeting a resolution
waa adopted saying they are in sym
pathy with the Amalgamated associa
tion, and pledging to support them to
the end; denouncing it aa an
injustice and insult to ask
them to work.under guard. This means
that the repair work which was to have
begun tomorrow will not be undertaken
by the old men, and new men will have
to be brought in if the company pro
poses to reopen the works Thursday.
It is impossible to untangle all the
contradictory stories being told about
new men. They are reported as coming
from many different points, but after
tbe rumors are sifted there is found to
be no truth in them. Some of tbe pil
grims are expected tonight, but the
chances seem to be that they will not
come. At any rate the advisory com
mittee is not particularly vigilant this
evening, although the patrols are con
tinued.
Mr. Shannon stated this evening that
he knew no men would be brought in
until Thursday, and that the whole
effort of the company was to be directed
toward bringing back old men, not in
getting new ones.
"The company cannot make nickel
steel armor plates without us," said he,
"nor, except at greatly increased ex
pense, do the ordinary work of the
milU. It will be a wni'trng fight, but I
believe we can stand it for five years.
Considerable help has been sent us by
friends, this money will' be used to pro
vide for laborers not members of our
body, but who are affected by the con
flict.
Iv tbe military camp today, Sabbath
stillness reigns. Divine services were
held by some regiments, but not by all.
In tbe town pulpits the strike was re
ferred to, but chiefly in the direction of
allaying the excitement.
Today's meeting of tbe employees of
Carnegie's non-union works at Duquesne
did nothing of a sensational character.
The meeting was addresssd by a num
ber of Homestead and other Carnegie
employees- It is stated that some 100
men present signified their intention of
joining the Amalgamated association.
Burgess McLuckie said after the meet
ing that all the men at Duquesne would
be in the ranks of the associationinside
of v week. .
Considerable curiosity has been
aroused by the departure of Hugh
O'Donnell on the fast line east. He re
fused positively to give his destination
or mission.
George W. Runner, a steel worker,
wounded in tbe riot on July 6th, died
today, as did Edward Speer, a Pinker
ton man from Chicago. This makes
eleven deaths resulting from the riot.
♦
CARNEGIE'S PITTSBURG MILLS.
They Will Never Be Operated by Non-
Union Men.
Pittsburb, July 17.—Affairs in the
neighborhood of the upper and lower
union mills are assuming a serious
phase. The skilled mechanics are en
deavoring to induce tbe workmen to
quit, and in numerous cases the latter
have declared that tbey would. A
secret conference of the amalgamated
workmen and laboring men waa held in
Union hall this afternoon, but it was
impossible to learn the result.
It is safe to say none of the strikers
will accept the company's invitation to
return to work. The men hold
that they will remain firm to
the last, and that the mills
will never be operated by non-union
men. The men are confident of win
ning and claim there are not enough
skilled men in the country to fill the
vacancies in the various plants now
idle.
There is an unconfirmed rumor to the
effect that the order of Railroad Train
men will join the fight, and that a
meeting will be called to decide whether
they shall handle Carnegie's output if
non-union men are employed.
CARNEGIE'S PROFITS.
Every Ton of Steel Produced Neta the
Company 814 to 816.
Pittsburg, July 17.—A Sunday paper
says: When the congressional commit
tee held its investigation its chief object
was to discover the exact amount ex
pended in the manufacture of a ton of
steel. Frick refueed to answer. The
Homestead workmen did all possible to
obtain the figures, but without result.
The greatest caution has been exercised
to prevent the publication of the figures,
but the coat of making a ton of basic
open hearth and.acid open hearth steel
has been secured. The official figures
were taken right from the books of Car
negie, Phipps & Co., December 28,1889.
Then follows a lengthy itemized state
ment, which shows that the total cost
of acid open hearth per ton to be $20 98,
and tbe total cost of a ton of basic open
hearth. $24 41.
The paper, analyzing the statement,
says: At that time acid open hearth
steel was selling at $55 per ton. The
cost of production is stated to be
$20.98, but, to be just, it is neces
sary to enumerate the expense at
tached to rolling a ton of acid
open hearth into plate, and also the
cost in the slabbing mill, and the total
cost of one ton reaches $41, giving the
Carnegie company a profit per ton of
$14 exactly. The figures of basic open
'hearth show that a ton would net a
profit of something like $10 per ton.
Since December, 1889, the minimum
basis baa dropped from $30 per ton to
$25. Reductions in all departments
have been accepted and the coat of labor
made much lower.
President Weihe, of the Amalgamated
association, being shown the figures,
said they were certainly strong evidence,
and had tbey been in tbe possession of
the Homestead men while the investi
gating committee was here they would
have made a strong argument.
A SWEEPING ARRANGEMENT.
Crick and the Pinkertons Accused of
Numerous High Crimes.
Chicago, July 17.—The Trades and
Labor assembly held a meeting today
to take action on the Homestead
troubles. The committee appointed a
week ago to prepare resolutions on the
subject, presented ita report. The pre
amble recites the existence of the Pin
kerton agensy and its "habit of send
ing armed assassins into different states
and territories to shoot American citi
zens and workingmen." It states that
Frick conßpired with the Pinkertons to
send "armed assassins, called watch
men, to Homestead, where, by Friek'e
instructions, the armed hirelings at
tacked, killed and maimed citizens and
workingmen, creating a riot and im
perilling the welfare of the whole
United States. Such acts are anarchis
tic and against the spirit of our liber
ties."
Then follows a resolution demanding
that the governor of Illinois immediately
cause the arrest of William Pinkerton
upon the charge of murder and inciting
to riot and insurrection. It calls upon
Governor Flower of New York to arrest
Robert Pinkerton of New York city on a
similar charge, and requests the gov
ernor of Pennsylvania to arrest Mr.
Frick on the charge of treason, murder,
inciting riot, insurrection and rebellion,
and at present trying to deprive Ameri
can citizens of their homes and right to
earn their living.
The resolutions were received with
cheers, and a committee of five was
appointed to draw up charges of murder
against the Pinkertons and Frick.
ALREADY ARRIVED.
The Alleged Imported iron Workers for
the Homestead Mills.
Philadjsluhia, July 17.—1f the in
formation received by President Weihe,
of the Amalgamated association, to the
<>Kaet that the Carnegie company is im
porting iron workers from Belgium, by
the steamer Switzerland, is true, then
the men are behind tbe cordon of troops
around Homestead, for the Switzerland
arrived here on Wednesday last. The
Switzerland brought 640 immigrants,
every one of whom was passed by the
inspector and allowed to proceed to
their destinations. Deputy Surveyor
Franklin, who was on the dock examin
ing the baggage, noticed among the
newly-arrived passengers a company of
about 100 men who were noticeable for
their stalwart appearance. Deputy
Franklin says all of them had the look
of men who had been engaged in some
occupation that developed their strength.
He also noticed that their baggage was
checked to Altoona, Fa., which is but a
short distance from Homestead. Chief
Officer Apertz, in charge of the Switzer
land, was seen today, and he said but a
few of the steamer's passengers were
Belgians and none iron-workers.
An Appeal for Aid.
New York; July 17.—Today the Cen
tral Labor union received an appeal for
financial aid from tbe Homestead iron
and Bteel workers. It was referred to
the affiliated unions for immediate ac
tion.
ANXIOUS TO GET AWAY.
Congreaa Likely to Adjourn at the End
of Thia Week.
Washington, July 17. —Everybody is
anxious to get away from the capital,
and the common expectation is that the
session will end next Saturday or
the following Monday. The members
will make a last desperate effort to se
cure action on their favorite bills, but
in both houses everything must give
way to appropriation bills, for the word
has gone out that the session will end
as soon as they are disposed of. Tbe
sundry civil, fortifications and general
deficiency appropriation bills remain to
be acted on. The only serious contro
versy looked for is in connection with
the World's fair appropriations, in the
sundry civil bill.
In the intervals between the consid
eration of conference reports, the senate
will resort to the calendar, and the
friends of the anti-option bill intend to
try to pass, or at least debate, the meas
ure.
Tomorrow being suspension day in
the house, an effort will be made to call
up from the committee on merchant and
marine the bill to repeal the present
ship-subsidy law. An attempt to pass
the bill under suspension of the rules
will find [general support on the Demo
cratic Bide. Tuesday the senate world's
fair amendments to the sundry civil
bill will be considered. Probably the
report of the pension office investigat
ing committee will be made a special
order for Wednesday. Action on con
ference reports will take up a consider
able portion of the week, and after the
date is fixed the last day of tbe session
will be devoted to conference reports
and the passage of measures under sus
pension of the rules.
Indian Murderers.
Port Townsend, Wash., July 17.—
According to advices received from
Juneau, per the steamship Queen, tbe
authorities arrested six Indians at
Chilcat, Alaska, charged with murder,
who together with twenty witnesses,
have been taken to Juneau for trial.
Tbe vedict of the coroner's jury was
that tbe Indians were responsible for
the death of a white man during a fight
with cannery men, July sth.

will adopt, can force the hand of Glad
stone. A conference of Gladstone and
hi' colleagues is expected to take place
Thursday.
Among the troubles menacing the
government is the habit the Irish mem
bers have of irregular attendance. If
the practice is continued, the absence
of some forty Irish members will render
the government liable to defeat at any
moment.
If American subscriptions freely con
tinue during the final crisis the. home
rule party will be wonderfully heartened
and strengthened.
The political resources of the TJa'on
ists are inexhaustible as compand w th
those of the Liberals, though it is It am id
that assurances have been obtaint d oy
the Liberal executive committee th it
wealthy Gladstonians are ready to re
spond to the demands for funds.
Regarding the coming crisis in parlia
ment, a month must elapse before the
actual business of the house begins. If
this ia followed by a change of govern
ment, Gladstone may take forthwith
from the ministry the members which
may require re-election. The Liberals
thus calculate that it will be
October before the new govern
ment oan be called upon
to preaent parliament its programme.
It is probable that Gladstone will not
begin the work of legislation in the
winter season, but will postpone it until
next spring.
The number of members thus far re
turned is 662, leaving eighteen yet un
decided. The opposition, combined,
numbers 342, andthe Unioniets 310. Of
the eighteen seats yet unreturned, seven
Irish and six British in the late parlia
ment wore held by the opposition and
five by the Unionists. As changes are
unlikely, the new parliament will con
sist of 355 Gladstonians and 315 Union
ists. '
