THE SECOND nATrLE

Worse Than Reported-Captain Rogers
says tile Strikers Acted in Cowardly
Manner.
PIrrsDuReu, Pa, July 6.-Four of the
locked out workmen came down from
Homestead this morning and reported
the second battle more serious than re-
ported. They stated that Eve Pinker-
ton men and like number OF the work
men were killed outright and that
number Of others were serlousty in
jured.
Among the alarming reports that
have reached the city is one that the
four mon mentioned above came to the
city to secure dynamite and nitro-glyce-
rine for the purpose OF blowing up the
boats on which the detectives are
housed. The report could not be con-
tirmed, although the men admitted that
they were going back to Homestead to-
day. The story, however, is not credit
ed, but it is given as one OF the rumors:
The steamer Little Bill, that assisted
in towing the barge to Homestead, ar
rived in the city shortly after noon.
Captain Rogers was very indignant at
the action OF the strikers, which he
termed as disgracefui and blot on hui
manity. He said: II never saw such a
cowardly attack as those strikers made:
They had fertilization OF pig iron and

momentarily expecting an assault from
the Pinkerton's, who were made des-
rate by their position on the river
bank. These men took no part in the
fight save during the assaults. They
loaded the guns Of the 200 men who
were nearest the barges and who kept
up tue skirmish line.
1t was q thrilling sight to witness the
regular army line move fearlessly to
the river front, when the Little Bill
came down. Not a man who had gun
hung back and many hundreds had
only clubs, sledges, picks, etc, BROUGHT

rifles and several wounded, cannon

WASHINGTON, D. O., July 6.-The ter
rible scene Of bloodshed at the Home
stead mills was the principal topic OF
conversation to-day at the capitol.
Congress had hardly gotten under way
at noon. when extras were issued by
the local papers and carefully read by
by the senators and members. Con.
gresham Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, had
private dispatch from Pittsburgh
stating that the loss of life reached
fourteen up to about IL o'clock, and
this dispatch, together with the in
Hammatory news of the extras, made
the Homestead battle the absorbing
topic on every hand.
The members Of the house having
nothing to do at all to-day but to an-
swer to roll calls on dilatory motions
found the Homestead affair a profitable
subject Of speculation. 1t was natural
that the matter should be viewed from
political aspect, and the resolution Of
investigation offered by Representative
Caminetti, of California, in part voiced
this political view. But on the whole,

for what purpose and by whom en-

dent Welhe, Of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation, arrived atNle scene OF the battle
about $3.50 O'clock this afternoon and at
once went into consultation with the
leaders at Amalgamated headquarters.
Mr.. Weihe was accompanied by forty
iron workers from Birmingham, Ala
bama. They came not to work, but to
get an idea OF the situation, and, il pos
sible, render aid to the locked out
Homesteaders.
During the afternoon fully 5000 men
walked into Homestead over tho Pitts
burgh, Virginia & Charleston railroad.
They came from the South Side, Pitts
burgh, aud many OF them we're armed,
In one delegation there were about
1000 mill workers. They carried flags
and proclaimed that they proposed to
stand by the Homestead workers in de-
tending the mill at any cost.
The scenes in Homestead to-day were
hard to describe. All the streets were
filed with men and women, particularly
the narrow roads leading to the mill.
Here were congregated thousands of
men, women and children, many OF the
latter weeping and wailing. On the
hill back OF the works was crowd OF
fully 5000 people. From this eminence
view OF the battle ground could be
obtained without running the risk OF
being made target of by those on the
boat. The proclamation Of the burgess
requiring all saloons to close was
rcligiously obeyed, but it was impos.
sible to keep many excited individuals
from gathering in the vicinity Of the
works.

men were swornin or not. II they
were not, then they had not any more
authority than the average citizen.
Nobody, however, can deny their right
of self defense. From what under
stand the firm had boon threatened,
and had been led to believe by the
action of the men that ito property was
in danger. It sent other men there
armed with rifles to protect the proper

had right to do So"
"But were threats actually made?
The workmen deny it."

but understand threats had been used
that alarmed the firm. Certainly a
man has right to protect his own
home with a rifle, or hire men to do it
for him."
