PREPARING FOR WAR.
Arrangements have begun, It is said,
by which there will be a temporary hos
pital for the care Of the wounded near
the probable scene OF battle in case an
other fight occurs. The struggle, if one
comes, OF courae, will be for possession
OF tho mill property and 1t will be In
its vicinity that tho war will rage, II at
all. Tho little town OF Homestead has
not yet risen to the Importance and size
making a hospital one Of its institutions
and there were no means except those
hastily improvised in the homo OF any
wounded striker for tho care Of men in
jured in battle. This afternoon, It is
said, a young physician came to Hugh
0'Donnell, tho local leader, with anote
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. It Is
reported that he suggested to o'Donnell
that he be given facilities for tho ac--
commodation Of temporary hospital
quarters OF any persons who might
hereafter be injured 1t was, he said,
of course to be hoped that further
trouble might be averted, but prepara-
tions 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
Pittsburgh, where better facilities would
Of course exist.
o'Donnell is said to shave asked the
physician what he would need and
was told that quarters should be ar
ranged that would be efficient, and
mattresses and cots should be pro-
vided. His suggestions were well re-
ceived by O'Donnell, who thought that
1t would be a very wise precaution to
take. He is said to have promised to
arrange to have suitable quarters
turned over to the physician and 1t Is
probable that they will be located in
the three.story brick building of the
Amalgamated Association, which stands
on corner not far from the works,
and is whore the men meet. The
strikers are constantly In expectation
OF o fight and the prompt acceptance
OF tho offer shows this and also the
realization the men have that the next
fight is likely to have more serious re-
suit than the previous battle.
Mr.. o'Donnell himself was very nom
committal when Intercepted upon this
point this evening and merely stated
that Dr. NJ G. Buoher, Of Pittsburg
Marcy Hospital, had called and prot,
feredhis assistance and had also offered
to received any wounded that might be
now in the city.
AT THE cuuRcHEs
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 anticipation of some radi-
cal expression from tho pulpit and the
visitors we're not disappointed.
At tho Methodist church tho Rev.
Mr.. Thompson. of the Gennessee con-
ference, to-day occupied the pulpit in
lieu Of Rev. DR.. McIllyar. the regular
pastor, and made some forcibie illus
ions to tho existing strife.
"When the world shall turn from
seeking its own selfish ends, said he,
'all immoral efforts OF self-aggrandize-
ment will be things Of the past. We
shall then indeed have triumphant
democracy; when Carnegie is not king,
but when Christ is the acknowledged
Lord Of hosts. [Sensation. Then the
lion OF capital shall lie down with the
lamb OF labor, and there will be no
Pinkertons to destroy or HARM"
Tho manifestations OF approval which
followed these expressions amounted
almost to applause, and the following
sentiments from the prayer OF Rev. DR..
McIllyar also received cordial approval:
"While the surging waves OF sorrow
.have pressed heavily on this commu-
nifty 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 these hearts that
aro watching to-day over their wounded
and those widows and mothors that
are weeping over their dead. God,
grant In great mercy, through the
power of tho salvation OF tho dying
Christ that all those things may work
together for our good in Christ Jesus;
so move to the mind of tho community
of the forces OF this state, to the sober
thinking aud intelligent men of this
state that peace and harmony may be
restored. Oh, God We pray that dema-
gogy may take back seat and that hon
est men may be brought to tho front.
God grant that in all these conflicts We
may SOC salvation going forward, peace
and harmony triumphant, prosperity
reign again in our community rs 1t has
done in the past.
ARBITRATION TIE THING.
At ST. Mary's Catholic church on
Twelfth avenue, this morning ut high

the riot and tho present uneasy condt-
ton OF tho town. He adjudged his
