HOMESTEAD, Pa, July S.-The ire of
the iron and steel workers in every part
of the Pittsburg and Mahoning and
Shenandoah valley districts are appar-
emily aroused, as the leaders here have
been notified that the assistance of at
least 5000 men can be secured. "What
next?'' is on the lips of every one. The
little town is in a state of suppressed
excitement following the midnight alarm
last night. Strong men. used to all sorts
of hardships and privations, show the
terrible strain which they have been
placed by loss of sleep, and the exciting
events of the past few days. Beneath the
surface of the excitement there exists
among those most deeply interested in
the trouble calm determination that
does not partake of revenge or want of
bloodshed, but is born of belief in the
justice of the cause. Three funerals of
victims of the fight on Wednesday morn
ing were held to-day.
