Strikes Expensive.

PITTsDURG, Pa, July 29.-The great
lockout at Homestead is just one
month old, and has already cost over
81 100000 besides the sacrifice of a half
score of human lives and serious in
jurics to many more people. OF the
loss in cash the military display has
cost in round figures 1920, 900, the work
men have lost in wages $1S0,000, and
Carncgie's have spent and lost rs much
more in getting new workmen. The
workmen mt Beavers Falls, Duqucsne
and the Union Mills in Pittsburg have
lost aboutS100, 000in wagcsby their SYM
pathy strike, and The firm is out $780,
600 by the idleness of these plants.
Added to this will be the county eX-
penscs for deputy sheriffS, and murder
trials, the expense to tho city for hunt
ing anarchists, and to the nation for
the congressional investigations. An
other item of no mean significance is
the loss to workmen and manufactures
in plants indirectly affected which have
been forced to close down for want Of
material.
PITsBURG, July 29.-All is quiet to-
day about Carnegie's city mills and at

to violate the rules Of the House.
Mr.. Wheeler said that he did not
wish to embarrass the chair in any man
ner; he would therefore resume his
scat.
Mr.. Watson then rose to reply to Mr..
Wheeler, but at first did not coniine
himself to the question Of privilege,
and he was called to order by Mr..
Coombs, of New York. This Interrupt
ton Mr.. Watson resented and he ex-
claimed deGantly: "No New York rep
resentative can bulldozc representa-
tive of the State ofGeorgia in the exer-
else Of his rights. You understand
that, will you y Continuing his re-
marks, Mr.. Watson said that the gen
tleman from Alabama had stated that
he Or. WatsoW had threatened him
with personal violence. That charge
was unfounded. He had gone to the
gentleman to assure him that he had
intended no discourtcsy to him and to
say that if the gentleman would allow
him the privilege of making prelimi-
nary statement, he would make full
explanation of the words in his speech
to which the gentleman objected yes
terday. The gentleman had denied
him the privilege that gentlemen of the
South had always allowed each other
the privilege of making voluntary re-
traction to the gentleman who had
been aggrieved. He stood here to de-
fend every line in the book and he
would do so before all corners, north or
south. II say he continued, with
emphasis, ''that every word in that
book is literally true and all men that
have been here keeping their eyes open
and wanting to admit the facts, will
admit that these facts are literally
true"
This declaration was the signal for
general Kissing.
The House was thrown into state OF
great excitement over Mr.. Watson's
language, for which he was promptly
called to order by Mr.. Tracey, of New
York, who was greatly indignant over
the wholesale charge upon the House.
Mr. Watson was permitted to explain
his language.
The Watson episode passed away but
only after he reiterated his assertion rs
to the truth OF the statements made by
him and defied the House to do with
him what it wished.
A resolution was adopted calling for
the appointment of a committee to in
vestigate the truth of Mr.. Watson's
charges relative to drunkenness of
members Of the House and to recon-
mend what course shall be taken with
respect to the member (Mr. Watson) if
the charge is found to be untrue.
1t was nearly two o'clock when the
House resumed the consideration of the
worlds fair amendments to the sun
dry civil appropriation bill. Filibus
tering was Immediately inaugurated,

box cars at Charlottesville by fire yes

Il force of sixteen bridge carpenters as
sleeping and eating apartments. Hardly
anything was taken out the burning
cars and all tho provisions, nearly all
the clothing, bedding, &c, of the men,
together with all their tools, some of
which were valuable, were destroyed
J. B. Dabney lost S45 in money, val
liable watch and two new suits of cloth
ing. n. w. Simpson lost considerable
money and many others suffered Sc
rious loss. A large number of cars
loaded with lumber were cut loose and
pulled away by the engine of the pas
scnger train, which was considerably de-
layed by the disaster. The car con-
tanning the tools of the company was
uninjured, having been cut loose from
the burning ones. BY some it is sup
posed that the cars were entered by q
thief and afterwards fired. Others
think that freight engine set them on
fire. Loss about 81 900.

RICHMOND TERMINAL AFFAIRS.-At
the meeting of the advisory committee
of the Richmond Terminal in New
York on Wednesday as heretofore
stated, it was deemed inadvisable to
create any floating debt by borrowing
money in order to pay off the interest
due on the Richmond Terminal 6 per
cent. collateral trust bonds maturing
August l next, and it was decided to
default the payment then due. This
action was stated by the various men,
bers of the committee to be entirely
approved by the larger security-hold-
ers in the company. The chairman
was, however, instructed to appoint Il
committee of three each from among
both the 5 per cent. and 6 per cent.
mortgage bondholders to look after
their respective interests.
A prominent member of the Rich
mond Terminal committee is quoted as
saying: progress is being made stead
lily toward getting the system out ofthe
Slough of despond' in which it has been
imbedded for so long time, but the
work is being quietly done. With the
Richmond and Danville floating debt
provided for until 1894, and an ar
rangcmcnt made, as now seems proba-
Bile, with the holders of the Richmond
Terminal and per cent. bonds, the
way would seem clear for the first time
toward a successful reorganization of
the entire system"

then sealing them up Theoretically in

which had been so treated, and for some
