HOMESTEAD, July 10.-The ministers
of the gospel are still giving occasional
manifestations of their sympathy with
the strikers. All the churches were
largely attended this morning in antici-
patton of some radical expression from
the pulpit, and the visitors were not dis
appointed.
At the Methodist church Rev. MI.
Thompson, of the Genessee conference,
today occupied the pulpit in lieu of Rev.
DR.. McIIlyar, the regular pastor, and
made some fOrcible illusions to the eX-
listing strife.

seeking its own selfish ends,'' said he,
call immoral efforts of self-aggrandize-
ment will be things of the past. We
shall then indeed have triumphan t

but when Christ is the acknowledged
Lord of hosts. [Sensation.] Then the
lion of capital shall lie down with the
lambs of labor. and there will be no

A Touching PRAYER.
The manifestations of approval which
followed these expressions amounted
almost to applause, and the following
sentiments from the prayer of Rev. DIR.
McIllyar also received cordial ap-
proval:
"While the surging waves of sorrow
have pressed heavily on this COM
munity during the past few days. we
| pray that, with Gods help, our faith
shall be stayed, and our confidence in
God. and our hope Of salvation, made
more strong. God grant comfort to
those hearts that are watching today
over their wounded, and those widows
and mothers that are weeping over their

BlOodshed to BE Avoided.
At st. Mary's Catholic church or
Tenth avenue this morning, at higl
mass, the Rev. j. j. Bullion spoke OF
the riot and the present uneasy cOndi-
tion of the town. He adjured his flock
to do everything in its power to avoid
further bloodshed, and declared that Il
should be the common effort of all gooC
citizens to bring about the arbitration
of the present quarrel. This, he
said, the power of public opinion would
