HOMESTEAD July oO.-Hugh O'Donnell
returned from New York tonight.
In view of the fact that the posted notit
cation to the strikers to return to work
will expire at 6p. m. tomorrow, the pres
ent situation in the mills here is signiti-
can't A reporter of the Associated Press,
who got into the mill from a skiif by
climbing the steepest part of the river bank
to-day, counted all the men he found there
at work. The total was only 65. One or
two of the huge shops, notably "Open
Hearth No. 81 were wholly deserted, not
/ even Waterman being visible. The still
ness within was profound, and search
for enough fire to light a cigar was a
dismal failure, the only reward for poking
around the furnace being to pull ont heaps
tof cold, black ashes, of which alone there
seemed no lack.
In spite of thir deserted appearance of
the mills inside, Secretary Lovejoy to-day
said that just as soon as the company
needs them it can put in the mills from
900 to 800 skilled workmen already en-
gagged. Then it may take from two hours
tostwo days to start the works.
RELIEF AND AN IMPENDING STRIKE.
The Amalgamated Associations relief
committee to-day began its distribution Of
got only from 50 to So apiece.
+, Several strikers were to-day reported to
ihave returned to work. To offset this an
amalgamated lodge has been formed at
Duquesne and there is likely to be strike
there, laying off at least a part of Carnegie
/ 1000 steel workers at that place in day
or two. Several participants in the Dri-
,quesne meeting were to-day discharged by
the firm.
HOMESTEAD, July 2l.-This was the last
day of grace allowed by the Carnegie
management for the striking steel workers
and other employees of the Homestead
mills to apply for reinstatement. Scores
OF workmen were putting in applications,
but 1t was not at the Carnegie office. Work
was to be had for the asking at the rooms
of the Amalgamated Association advisory
board and the headquarters of the me
chanics and laborers further down the
street. Dwier and lngel, a firm of rail
road contractors, had made requisions al
both places for at last 400 workmen, and
as many more as wished to come to hell
grade new branch of the Pennsylvania
line near Millvale, a short distance from
Homestead.
The boon was readily accepted, chiefly
by the skilled workmen and the vicinity
of the Carnegie offices presented NOR,
desolated appearance than ever. Wha
seemed to be mainly worrying the striker
was desire that Hugh o'Donnell. Ros
and other leaders for whom warrants ar
out should not give the Pinkertons or tn
steel company officials the satisfaction 0
arresting them. The idea was, il possible
to have O'Donnell and the rest give them
selves up in Pittsburg, as did Burgess
McLuckie. Except for this anxiety tn
strikers and their sympathizers were il
brilliant spirits.
