about it yet" said he to an inquiry as to
whether the committee was still in
force.
'Are you considering the reorganiza-
tion of it?"
''Not yet. All I can say is to repeat
saying of Queen Victoria, England
expects every man to do his duty We,
| too, expect every man TO do his duty In
this crisis"
"Have you received any information
from the Sheriff today ?"
mo, nothing"
"The Congressional investigating
committee will be here day after tomor-
row. What steps will you take to re-
ceive it ?"
II suppose if they call upon US, we
shall respond and give them all the In
! formation necessary"
''Have you received any visits from
prominent labor leaders ?"
Eyes, Mr.. Dan. Harris, President OF
the New York State branch OF the
Federation of Labor is here to eyteud
the sympathy and proffer the assist
| ance OF that organization.
Arrangements have begun, 1t is said,
by which there will be temporary hos
pital
FOR THE CARE OF THE WOUNDED
near the probable scene Of battle In
case another fight occurs. The strug-
! gle, if il comes, of course, will be for
the possession OF the mill property, and
it will be in its vicinity that the war
will rage, if at all. The little town OF
Homestead has not yet risen to the i'm
portance and size Of making hospital
! one of It's institutions, and there were
no means except those hastily lmpro-
vised in the home of any wounded
striker for the care Of men in
iured in battle. This afternoon,
| it is said, young physi-
elan came to Hugh 0'Donnell, the
local leader with note OF introduction
! from Sister Magdelene, OF the Sisters OF
Mercy, which has charge OF the Mercy
Hospital, to which some of the injured
| in Wednesdays battle were carried. II
is reported that he suggested to ODon-
nell that he be given facilities for the
accommodation in temporary hoSpltal
quarters of any persons who might
hereafter be injured. 1t was, he said,
of course TO be hoped that further
| trouble might be ayerted, but prepara-
tjons should be made to give immediate
and proper attention to all those per-
sons needing it, and subsequently
they could be removed to the
! hospital in Pittsburg, where bet
ter facilities would Of course
exist. ODonnell is said to have asked
the physician what he would need and
was told that quarters should be ar
ranged that would be nurses down and
mattresses and cots should be provided.
! His suggestions were we'll received by
! O'Donnell; who thought IL would be
very wise .precaution TO take. de is
said to have promised TO arrange TO nave
suitable quarters turned over to the
physician and it is probable that they
will be located In a three-sCory brick
bpllding of the Amalgamated Associa-
tion. which stands on a corner not far
from the works, and is where the men
meet.
The strikers are constantly
IN EXPECTATION OF A FIGHT
aud the prompt acceptance of the offer
| shows this and also the realization the
men have that the next fight is likely to
have more serious result than the pre-
vious battle.
Mr.. ODonnell himself was very non
committal when interrogated upon this
point this evening, and merely stated
that DIR. NJ. G. Bucher, OF Pittsburg
Mercy Hospital, had called and proffered
his assistance and had also offered TO re-
ceive any wounded that might be now
in the city.
The ministers OF the gospel are still
giving occasional manifestations OF their
| sympathy with the strickers. All the
| churches were largely attended this
morning, in anticipation OF some radical
expression from the pulpit, and the Wis
itors were not disappointed.
At the Methodist Church the Rev.
Mr.. Thompson, of the tennessee Con-
ference to-day occupied the pulpit in
lieu of Rev. Dr. McIllyar, the regular
pastor. aud made some forcible allu-

the world shall turn from seeking its
own selfish ends" said &c, ''all immoral
efforts of self-aggraudizement will be
things OF the past. We shall then in
deed have triumphant Democracy
