PrrTsBuRe, July 2s.-Late this after
noon II. c. Frick's condition was much
improved. Mr.. Frick slept great deal
during the afternoon and the rest thus
obtained greatly strengthened him.
His temperature, pulse ana respiration
are normal and the doctor says the i'm.
provement 10 very satisfactory consid-
ering the warm weather. The riot that
occurred this morning at Whitehall
station on the train on which
non-union men were being brought
from CINCINNATI TO work IN
the Homestead mill will likely
get into court. Attorney Brennan of

bringing the men TO this city under
misrepreeeutations. The Carnegie COM
pauy intend To present . new scale

amaIgamated prices, but will only
treat with the men ~ individuals.

will be held back until such time - the
