The Bottom Knocked Out of Cinoinnatis
New Watorworks Scheme.
CINCINNATI. Ohio, July 21.-The En-.
auirer gained most signal victory here
yesterday. A gang Of politicians,
through the legislature, submitted a
measure to the people to construct new
waterworks. The movement was
backed up by magnificent political
machine and by the entire press Of Gin.
cinnati. save the Enquirer. That paper
fought the scheme with all it's wonder
full vigor and influence.
A large vote was polled, resulting in
?,706 votes being cast for the measure
and 20, 266 against it. The Enquirer
forced the politicians, much against
their will, to submit the measure to a
vote Of the people, then through it's col.
umns defeated the measure.
Over l, 100 votes were not counted, it
being claimed that number of ballots
were irregular.

HOMESTEAD, July 2l.-Burgess John
McLuckie, of this borough, was. in the
eyes of its citizens yesterday, a bigger
man than the distinguished guest at d.
vision headquarters, Governor Pattison.
The release of McLuckie from GUS
tody on $4,000 bail was the cause OF
much rejoicing in the town. People
turned out in thousands to welcome
him home. They thronged the station
and platform at Homestead, and when
the l o'clock train rolled in he was
greeted by the first bars of Home,
Sweet Home" by two brass bands.
AS the tall form of the Burgess
alighted from the train 600 strikers and
citizens fell into line and escorted him
through the streets. The sidewalks
were lined with people, while their
cheers almost drowned the music of the
bands.
The day was fine one for a parade.
and the women of the town tried to Ri
Tal the men in welcoming the martyr"
as he is called, by the clapping OF hands
and waving of handkerchief. Before
the parade was ready to move Provost
Marshal Green was given orders from
Major General Snowden to stop the dem
onstration, as he thought it might lead
to some outbreak.
While the orders were being executed
the parade was we'll on its way, and as
it was about concluded, Captain John
Ertig, of Company G, Eighth regiment,
caught up with the bands, and in the
name of the commonwealth was about
to order the procession to dispense near
McLuckie's home
Inc captain made mysterious sign
to Fire Marshal Bird, who is also a
Mason, and he ordered the parade he
was leading 10 break up. His order was
obeyed Immediately, but the parade
occurred and the enthusiasm was
vented.
This incident draws strong parallel

-,INdge MnGee Says Those who Were In the
Riot Are Such,

Riot Are Such.
PITTsBURG, July 21.-The second Skin
mish in the legal battle between the
Carnegie Steel Company and the
strikers was begun yesterday m orning
before Judge Magee when the applica-
ton for the release Of Burgess John
McLuckie, of Homestead, was called
up.
AT $3.50 Mr.. Bremen again formally
presented the petition for the release
of Mr.. McLuckie, and the case was
opened.
Alter listening to all the testimony
and addresses Judge Magee fixed the
amount OF Burgess McLuckie's bail at
$4,000.
Owen Murphy and o. c. Coon, of
Homestead, went on the bond of Me-
Luckie and he was released. Before
granting bail Judge Magee said. 81
have made it my business to carefully go
over this case. and unless there was
some good defense would make it muir
der in the first degree. / wish to saw
that the law makes every man who
stands idly by without any effort to
suppress the rioting and disorder guilty
OF rioting. Such man is responsible
ioi OIL luo CoHSeq ueuCoS OF Inc disorder
and rioting. whe Their such rioting re-
suits in the loss of property or the loss
OF life. No matter what tho result evory
man is equally guilty for such degree Of
crime as the facts and results warrant.
This may DO murder in the first or
second degree,
81 feel that in the case of Mr. Nc
Luckie his crime, if any, does not reach
that of murder in the first degree, and
am, therefore. glad there was no obec-
ton made to his release on bail"
Mr.. Cox: II would like to know what
disposition the court will make OF the
cases OF the other men for whom war
rants have boon issued"
Mr.. Burleigh: "We cannot and will
not dis oose of the case OF a man who has
evadcd arrest and is in hiding"
Mr.. Cox: "Well, they will all come in
and surrender if this matter of bail is
6xed.'
Judge Magee said How can we do
that? Each case should be disposed of
separately. Some of these men may be
guilty OF murder in the first degree. and
if so no bail should be taken. There
was riot there, perhaps unjustifable,
but certainly some ono was killed de.
liberately. II man gets up tree and
deliberately kills man. as was done at
Homestead, he isguilty of murder in the
first decree"
