land, July 9.-The Pittsburg Dispatct
correspondent today called at the magnif
icent shooting cottage occupied during the
| summer by Andrew Carnegie and re
| quested an interview with that gentleman
For three days Mr. Carnegie has been
coaching from Edinburgh via Braemar
and Pittschry county to this place. He
| drove through here at noon today behind
four superb grays, in the most elaborate
coach that Scotland has ever seen upon
| its roads, and which has figured in the
guide books and literature Of this neigh
| borhood.
This cottage, for which Mr.. Carnegie
| pays $4,000 for eight weeks' occupancy,
is situated ten miles from the town of
| Kinloch, and at the head of the lochs, a
| beautiful sheet Of water surrounded by
broad grouse moors and dark green for
| ests, both fat with game. IL is a COM
| Portable, rambling, two story building, of
| gray stone, fronting on the lake and sur
rounded by stone outbuilding and stables,
with gardens and lawns running down to
the edge of the water.
The Dispatch correspondent drove over
this afternoon to the lodge, where he was
received by dignifled English servant
in blue livery with white stripe on his
trousers, giving him in his uniform quite
military air. In response toa request TO
see Mr.. Carnegie, the correspondent was
ushered into bare, sportsmanllke recep-
tion room, whose walls were covered with
arltlers,28 pairs in all being counted, each
bearing the card of the gentleman who
had killed the buck, the absence of one
card being presumed to indicate that Mr..
Carnegie had been the victor, himself.
On table in the center of the room
ivgn N a Wg
in them marked showing that Mr.. Carne-
gle was perfectly au courant with the stu
alton at Homestead, One OF these papers
was the London Times of Friday last,
containing the story of the riot, and telling
that six strikers had been killed and six
fell in the struggle, Around these figures
Mr.. Carnegie, or someone else, had
drawn ring with a lead pencil.
The other paper was the Pail Mall Ga
zette and on its open pase was the "deadly
parallel" column, one side showing Mr.. |
ing Of the free library in Aber- |
deem, where the Earl and the Couness of |
Aberdeen were thanking him, and on the |
other side was the table OF the reduction |
of,wages at Homestead.
In this room the writer sat for over an
hour without any intimation being given
that he was to be received. Finally Mr., |
Carnegie came through the hall with a
quick, energetic step, and entered the
room.
The correspondent asked il he cared TO
'ay anything in regard to his troubles at
lis mills, and Mr.. Carnegie, in the most
abrupt manner, replied: "Ihave nothing
whatever to say. l have given up all
Ictive control of the business, and don't
are to interfere in any way with the
resent managemenps conduct of this
IF airn
"But do you not still exercise a supervi.
ion of the affairs of the company" was
sked.
~ have nothing whatever to say on that
oint. The business management is in
le hands of those who are fully compe.
ent to deal with every question that may
rise,n
"Have you heard from Homestead since |
le riot occurred Pn
~ have received several cables, and
mong them several asking my inter
'rence with the parties in CONTROL"
But you must have some opinion in the
after tha you are willing to express?" =

,urse and am powerless to change it.
he handling of the case on the part of s
e company has my full approval and :
notion. Further than this / have no Z
sposition to say anything" 1
When Mr., Carnegie had thus spoken he 9
rned abruptly and left the room. All n
at had beed said was said standing.
