MILITIA ON THE MOVE
HOMESTEAD MEN TO WELCOME
THEM WITH BANDS.


HOMESTEAD, PA, July IL, 11:30 A. NJ
"AIl's quiet at Homestead" is the watch-
word, which has literal significance and is
withoutirony in its application in this little
burg to-day. For the first time since the
beginning of this great labor rebellion the
indications of reviviug respect for the law
Of the state OF Pennsylvania and the rights
of individuals are once more observed. The
salutary effect of Gov. Pattison's action in
calling out troops ia already marked in the
radical change that the past six hours have
wrought and personal freedom this morn
ing is practically unrestrained. It 10 truo
that now and then some overol1cious indi-
vidual assumes to himself the right TO inves-
tigate and catechise persons as they step
from the train, but such instances are rare,
and the profound respect that would have
bsen accorded yesterday 70 such persons was
sgually wanting to-day.
TO BE RECEIVED WITH BAND.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July II, 5 P. M,-Hostili-
ties are over. At a meeting OF the strikers
this afternoon it was decided, by a unaui-
mous vote and amid great enthusiasm, that
the militia should be Welcomed TO the city
by brass bands and other ceremonies appro-
pirate to the occasion. 1t was also resolved
that any striker who should hoot the militia
or otherwise fail in proper respect to the
states Representatives should be ducked In
the river, and a committee was appointed for
that purpose The burgess was requested
to invite all citizens having no business in
Homestead 20 depart, as it was feared some
unwise and anarchistio sympathizers with
the strikers might seek to perpetrate trouble.
All the leaders made speeches and the three
brass bands of the city rendered their serv-
in 1iT1tr IN mill
No one doubts that all will be peaceful
henceforth.
FRAUDULENT AGENTS.
HOMESTEAD, Pa. July II, 1850 P. NJ
The advisory committee of the strikers
have received information that alleged
agents of the amalgamated association
have visitsd several large cities of the ooun-
try soliciting contributions for the strikers

got large sums of money, their fraudulent
mission being furthered by credentials writ
ten on letter heads OF the association.
