PTrsDURa, July 8.-Affairs at Home
stead have assumed an ugly shape. II. G.
Frick. chairman of the Carnegie Steel
company, appealed to Sheriff McCleary
for protection, and ten deputies were sent
to the scene yesterday afternoon. They
were met at the station by 1000 workmen
and escorted to the river, where they were
placed upon n steam tug and ordered TO
return to the city. The crowd then tore
down the sheriiI's proclamation warning
the men not to assemble near the Carnegie
Steel company's work nor to interfere
with the operation Of the works. Before
he sent the deputies 10 the scene the
sheriff declined to accept the offer OF the
advisory committee Of the Amalgamated
association 70 furnish sufficient men TO
guard the company's property.
The excitement is intense The men re-
sent outside interference. and are very
bitter and In n threatening mood. They
will go into court and ask that Chairman
Frick be restrained from taking measures
that will result disastrously to the quiet
and peace Of Homestead. The sheriff says
he intends to preserve the peace.
