THE HOMESTEAD LOCKOUT.
An Estimate Of What It Will Cost
All Concerned.

A dispatch from Homestead, Penn, says:
THE great lockout at Homestead Is just one
month old, and has already cost over 81, }.
100000 besides the sacrifice Of q halt-scors
of human lives and serious injuries to many
times that number. OF the loss In cash. the
military has cost in round figures s320, 900,
the workmen have lost in wages $780,
900 and the Carnegies have spent and
lost as much more In getting new workmen.
The workmen at Beaver Falls Duquss1e and
the Union mills in Pittsburg have lost about
100000 in wages by their sympathy STRIKE
and the firm Is out 800, 900 by the idleness
of these plants. Added to this will be tho
county expenses for deputy sheriffs and
murder trials, the expense to the city
for hunting Anarchists and to the Nation
for the Congressional investigation. An
other item Of no mean significance IS the loss
to workmen and manufacturers In plants
indirectly affected, which have been forced
to close down for want OF material. The
locked-out workmen have notas yet been de-
prived of any Of the necessaries OF life, and
II the fight should last several weeks longer
there is no danger Of the workmen's families
coming to actual want. Subscriptions have
bsen coming in literally ind the relief work
has been carried on juGiciously and well.
Every day people come to the Amalgamated
Headquarters and receive orders for gro
ceries and provisions. The funds already
collected will hold out for some time. The
people who are receiving aid are principally
those who received 81 40 day, the cheap
laborers, who left their places out Of SYM
pathy for the members OF the Amalgamated
Association"
On the 10Th of June, 1000 men having
been locked out 1900 others struck out OF
sympathy, ana only few watchmen were
left around the plant. Now there are about
725 men in the mill, and the firm says It has
q quantity Of beams ready for shipment.
The men claim that their ranks ore q
solid as on the first day after the mills wert
closed against them, while the ofhcIals OF the
company assert that there are gaps that are
daily becoming wider.
When the striking workmen at the A[le-
ehany Bessemer Steel Works at Duqussne
were paid of a watchman named Foley got
into an alteration with q man named
Bourke, striker. They were arrested
and taken to the Aldermen's Office.
While there Foley's son attacked Bourke
and cut him over the right eye. A crowd
of several hundred workmen gathered
around to see the fight and nearly created q
riot. The crowd was ultimately scattered
by the Sheridan Troop, which was tels-
graphed for to the heights above.
The would-be assassin BerkmAnu was
given a preliminary hearing in the County
Jail Office in Pithburg, and was admitted to
bail aggregating $A, 900, which was not
furnished, and tho prisoner was remanded
for court.

have one, though.
They'll pay you, if they can't

A PENITENTIARY RAlOED.

The One at Little Rock, Ark, Broken into
BY Mob and a Negro Charged With As
sau1ting a Fiye-Year-OId Girl Taken
TherefrOm, Hanged and His Body Rid
died With Bullets.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, May 16.-The
boldest raid of vigilantes on record is
that which was chronicled here Saturday
morning, mob attacking and entering
the state penitentiary and dragging
forth a negro brute who was then taken
to the center of the town and hanged
and riddled with bullets. Wednesday
Henry Jones, q negro, % years of age,
brutally assaulted the adopted daugh-
ter, aged years, of Charles Johnson
and then fed. Yesterday the wretch
was arrested and placed in Jail
Late in the afternoon mob was or
gained, but the prisoner was removed
just in time to the penitentiary. About
midnight a second mob formed and at
1:15 o'clock this morning 1000 men
armed with Winchesters and revolvers
demanded adnittance to the peniten-
tiary. The authorities refused to let
the mob in, but admitted that the pris-
oner had been taken by them for safe
keeping and declared that they would
turn him over to the sheriff at O'Clock
this morning.
The mob with sledge hammers then
broke open the great iron gates, en-
tered the penitentiary and, having Sc
cured the prisoner. started with him to
Johnson's house. some distance away
where johnson identified him.
The mob grew in number to an i'm
mense throng as it then marched to
Fifth and Main streets, in the heart of
the city, opposite the Masonic temple.
There the wretch was given several
minutes to pray and confess. He at
first denied his guilt, but finally admit
ted it. A rope was then thrown across
the cross-arm of a large telegraph pole
and Jones was soon swinging in midair
and was riddled by hundreds of bullets.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition OF the ncu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube gets inflaIned you have arumbliHg
sound or imperfect hearing, and when ii is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal concl-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are capSed by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inf1an1ed condition
OF the mucous surfaces

IT appears that very satisfactory re-
suits have been reached in experiments
made with III. Caillette's apparatus for
producing temperature of from ninetr
degrees to one hundred and ten degrees
Fahrenheit below zero, by the expan-
sion of carbonic acid. The apparat us
consists of two concentric vessels with
a small annular space between them, a
spiral coil being placed inside the inner
vessel, and this is put in communication
with closed vessel containing liquifed
carbonic acid gas At its lower end the
coil is connected with the anuular space.
and at its Gupper stop-cock is fitted.
When used the inner vessel is filed with
alcohol. the stcp-cock on the carbonic
acid vessel is fully opened, and the cock
on the spiral partly opened, when the
liquid passes slowly into the coil and
takes the form of snow. From the coil
it passes into the annular chamber. in
which are placed pieces of sponge soaked
in alcohol, which arrest all the acid that
has not become gaseous, while the gas
itself passes out of the apparatus
through bent tube. With about five
and one-fourth pints IF alcohol in the
inner vessel. and consuming four and
one-half to five and one-half pounds OF
liquid carbonic acid, temperature Oh
ninety-fi7e degrees Fahrenheit can be
o1iSineti in Il few minutes.
