HOMESTEAD, Pa, July Pa lull
today of the most pronounced kind
opened the week in Homestead. The
strikers and soldiers seemed to have
finally settled down to the conclusion
that long, tedious seige was before
them and that there was nothing to
do but to wait the departure of the
military. Musicians helped to give
the camp dull air and the workmen
for the greater part adopted a new
course by remaining away from head
quarters and devoting their
attention to repairs on the
inside walls and fences Of
their homes. Among the few found
in public places practically the only
two topics were the punishment of
Private Iams and the expected re-
turn of Hugh O'Donnell. Generally
the demonstration when O'Donnell
arrived was deprecated, though few
limited that we'll arranged sponta-
neous display of their feelings was not
altogether improbable. The chances
for collision with the troops, how
ever, is believed to be almost if not
quite at sea.
PREPARING FOR WORK.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 25.-All
approaches to the Thirty-third street
mill of Carnegie company, were guard
ed this morning by large detach-
ment of police. 1t is now about set
tied that an effort will be made to put
sevaral hundred men in this mill as
soon as they can be arranged for. No
strangers have yet arrived at the
works and the only hands employed
right along since the shut down ten
days ago are ON duty, but every thing
about the interior of the departments
indicate that they are in readiness for
workers. The furnaces are lighted as
they were for the past several days.
The locked out men are TAX
ing matters cody and the statement
that the City mills of the company
were to start today is denied by Sec
rotary Lovejoy, who stated that the
company was in no hurry with their
works. Lovejoy said: "The great
fight is at Homestead, and to that we
will give our individual attention and
hen we win it the other matters will
be easily settled"
CONDITION OF MR.. FRICKE.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July %. - MIR.
Fricke passed comfortable night
and is resting easily this morn
ing. Secretary Lovejoy said that
up 10 8 o'clock Mr.. Fricke did
we'll and at that hour he was Sleep
ing. He awoke refreshed about
O'Clock and is feeling much better.
His physicians lear no direct danger
from the wounds themselves. OF
course there are complications which
may follow. We hope for the best in
this and are sure he will recover.
Eleven O'Clock a M, Mr.. Prick was
resting easy and hopes for his recov-
cry are bright. The only thing feared
is warm weather, which may effect
his recovery. He insists on having q
number af messages of inquiry and
sympathy read to him and dictate
answers to them.
o'DONNEL RELEASED ON BAIL.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 25.-A large
crowd was present this morning in
the criminal court to hear the decision
of Judge Magee OH application of
Hugh O'Donnell for release on
bail. O'Donnell was less nervous than
during his hearing, and seemed to be
! confident of his release Ross, FOy,
and Allen were brought into court at
9:35. Judge Magee said: "The evil
dence shows the defendant was not an
active participant in the killing. He
was in sympathy with the crowd, and
by idly standing by is responsible for
their acts. L don't think there is any
doubt about the right of the prisoner
not to be bailed, and will fix it at $10,-
O0O." The other strikers were then
without further objection released on
the same amount of bail.
THE WOULD-BE ASSASSIN.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 25.-Berg-
man, the would-be slayer of Mr..
Fricke, passed a quiet night in Jail.
He arose at o'clock this morning and
his first question was as to Mr.. Frick's
condition. When told he would re-
cover he said, "Well, 1 ana sorry for
that"
