brought from Homestead, all wounds
noted, except gunshot wounds, being
received from clubs, bricks, stones and

hundred.
Much speculation is going on here as
to what became of the bodies of the
Pinkertons which were supposed to be
The speaker of the workers told the
crowd that there were six dead men
on the boat. Only one was taken
of and that was the body of Thomas
Weldon, who was accidentally shot
during the scuffie with one of the mill
workers who was trying to take his
Winchester. He died while being
taken off. Burgess McLuckie
was seen and said if there
were any bodies on the barges
they must surely have been burned,
but he does not think there were any
dead men on the boats at the time Of
the surrender. They were taken away
by the Little Bill Some people say
there are at least two Pinkerton men
at the bottom of the river.

nOMEsTEAD, IA, july o.-N euneSOdy
night was one of watchfulness, though
Suppressed excitement in Homestead,
the extraordinary events of the day
aaving told upon the spirits of the
men. Guards We're established as
usual, but the majority of the warriors
went home. At 9 o'clock not thir ty
men remained in front of the rink
where the Pinkertons were.
1t is certain that many homes in
Homestead are arsenals, for the men
captured 800 rifles in the barges, and
they know how to use them, too, now
here. They do not themselves look
upon this as decisive contest and
they expect other battles
There was much surprise over the
reported release by the sheriff of the
PinkertonS When the men agreed
not to kill the detectives, it was with
the understanding that they should be
placed in Jail until informations for
murder could be sworn out against
them. The report of their release ex-
cited much angry discussion at first,
but several of the leaders expressed
relief and believed that no legal COM
plications would arise.
The home of II. C. Frick on Home
wood avenue, East end, was last night
guarded by two private detectives.
Two others are keeping personal guard
over Mr.. Frick during the day.
To Arrest the Leaders.
Secretary Lovejoy of the Carnegie
steel company said this afternoon:
1.-The Amalgamated people who COM
mitted these recent overt acts will
probably find themselves in a very bad
hole, for when the proper time ar
rives a number of them will be ar
rested on a charge of murder, and
need scarcely say there will be no lack
of evidence. 1t will be overwhelming.
I think that the national officers OF
the Amalgamated association have a
heavy burden of responsibility to bear
in this case, for timely action and pru-
dent counsel on their part would in
my opinion have gone far to-
ward preventing this trouble
AhlS OuIOLCdh oCttiCu AAol-
ter forever, and that is that the
Homestead mill hereafter will be run
by non-union men, and the Carnegie
company Will never again recognize
the Amalgamated association nor any
other labor organization. The Home
stead trouble will doubtless have the
effect of influencing other mills here
tofore union to become non-union and
thus free themselves from dictation of
labor unions"
Pinkertons Shipped to New York.
Five carloads of Pinkerton detectives
were sent TO New York on the Pennsyl-
vania road by special train at 10 o'clock
yesterday morning. After the last
lot of injured, twenty-five in number,
had been taken to the West Pennsyl-
vania hospital, the remainder lay
under the Seventeenth street incline,
in the Seventh street station, securely
locked in their cars, until nearly dawn.
The men inside the cars presented q
sorry sight with their bandaged heads
and arms. Nothing could exceed their
Impotence to get away and they were
crazy for papers to get an idea of the
situation at Homestead. "Why can't
we get out of this?" said one Pinkerton
man as he poked his head out of
window. will we never get away?"
The expression was only one of many.

The Sheri6's had Plight.

PITTsBURe, Pa, July 7.-Sheriff Nc
Cleary last night issued proclamation
calling on all good citizens to appear
at his Office at o'clock this morning
with arms and subsis tence to suppress
the riot He also sent out many per-
sonal notices.
When the sheriff was ready at 9
o'clock to receive volunteers there
were very few on hand. But one man
not personally summoned was on the
ground and no others had yet re-
inforced this one. OF the los
men legally called upon but
twelve responded. As it was APP
parent that a force large enough
for any practical purpose could not be
gathered in this manner to day,
Sheriff McCleary decided to postpone
his trip to Homestead until tomorrow.
On announcing this decision he said:
1--WE will not 60 to Homestead to-day,
as It is impossible for US to get posse
We will take the name and addresses
of all who have come here and will be
ready to call on them tomorrow. We
will issue more summonses to-day, and
l. expect to have a larger force to-
morrow"
There is much reluctance ON the part
of many here to go to Homestead,
where fight would be expected by
every deputy. In the cities of Pitts
burg and Allegheny there are thou
sands of members Of the same unions
as the locked out workmen, and these
have no wish to bear arms against
their brother workers.
A deputy who returned from Home.
stead this morning declares that the
taking of a posse to that place will
surely bring about q conflict and the
scenes of yesterday will be re-enacted.
The men are flushed with yesterdays
success and are unreasonable and will
fight to the end.
Sheriff McCleary telegraphed the
governor at noon that all his means
had been exhausted and left the mat.
ter in the hands of the governor.

TOPEKA, Kan, July s.-Secretary
Mohler of the state board of agricul.
ture, makes the following crop report:
From correspondents of this board, num-
bering about 600 and representing every
county in the state, we learn that during
the month Of June agricultural conditions
in Kansas have been, on the whole. favora-
BILE. The cold, wet weather Of
preceding months, in the early part Of June
gave way to warm suns and dry weather
and these conditions. while shortening the
oats and barley crops, have brought for
ward TO maturity the wheat crop of Kansas
at an earlier date than was expected and
has afforded an opportunity TO save IN
excellent condition the fine wheat crop
of the state. These conditions have also
enabled farmers to do good work in the
fields Of the state, and wherever they have
been Industrious their corn fields are clean
Of weeds and in every way in a highly
favorable condition for a rapid and vigor.
Gus growth of corn.

Rash TALK OF CASH.

Some Businsss Men Aid R0bbeFs by Civ
ing Injudlcious Iuform tion.
The head of one of the Oldest and
most important financial houses in Chi
eago said to n Chicago Tribune reporter
one day, with q great deal of emphasis:
II much wish that our younger busi-
ness men would exercise a isoener ap-
probation of how irjudlcious it is TO APP
pcpr voluntarily in print by giving ac-
curate information regarding sush mat
ters as the days on which, their estalb-
lishments have most cash on hand. the
mails in which they usually make their
heaviest shipments of cash, and all that
sort of thing.
30nly this week a young bank official
did all of this and more. Not only did
he name the days that the institution
with which he was connected has the
most cash on hand and makes It's heavi-
est transfers of money to the post and
express offices, but he gave the same In
formation regarding two or three other
institutions of q similar character.
There have been other cases where
the same thing has been done by young
men. It is seriously wrong, wholly and
entirely rnbusinesslilke. To do so Sim
ply means the giving of valuable and
otherwise wholly unnttainable pointers
TO tho highwaymen from whom we are
hearing with such alarming frequency
and in so serious o manner. OF late.
Were an bffieer or efnploye connected
with our institution to do anything OF
the kind he or would imtnetliately
sever connection with that institution,
"The man guilty OF doing such thing,
either Willingly or uAwIttingl.y instant
ly forfcits all right TO confidence. Such
D man is either E fool or g lsnave, and
neither should hold o. position of trust.
Most sincerely do Ihope that our young
men will be more on their guard as tc
this thing in the future.' f.h

WRoTH. MONEY!.

A Druidlenl Custom That Il EStIu OBJ
served In warwickshire.
History hooks confidently assert that
the Bruids have long ceased to exist in
England. Doubt is thrown on this
assertion by quaint custom held in
the stormy dawn of a recent morning
around the remnants of n British tu-
mu1us which exists at Knightlow In
Warwickshire, where the duke of Buc-
cleuch, as lord Of the Hundred. exacted
payment Of certain tributes which date
from the misty times of our Dguidical
ancestors.
The duke did not himself appear in
the character of Druid to collect the
dues, but was represented by his agent.
Payment is made by twenty-eight par
ishes of the old Hundred OF Knightlow,
the tax being called '.wroth silver"
What it was instituted for no body
knows, and nobody knows exactly why
it was maintained. It. only produces
about nine shillings, but if any parish
ncglects to pay the duke has the right
to exact from it white bun, with red
nose and ears The representatives of
tho different parishes must assemble at
the tumulus before or ON November IL,
march thrice around a hollow stone,
saying: "The wroth money" and de
posit the tribute in the cavity, from
which the dukes representative gathers
it up, says the London Telegraph.
Aphiiologer after the school OF nean
Swift's Greek and Latin derived from
English" might explain the meaning of
the nqme by saying that the parishes
were ''wroth" at having TO payiit; but
this etypology is lat once ,pullified by
the fact that inhabitants of the Hun
dred who care to get out of bed so early
are entertained in a neighboring, hos
telry by his grace at a substantial
breakfast, costing twenty times moro
than they pay in ''wroth money" 1t is
curious custom, linking the distant
past with nineteenth century civiliza-
tiOn. 49,.

A Camp Experience.

4 Rhode Island soldier, while on
picket guard, was rushed upon by n
party of Confederate cavalry. He fired
at the foremost OF them and ran. Be
fore him was an open field about fifty
rods across, bounded by an old log
renee. and beyond that n thicket
of briers and underbrush. For this
bushy retreat the soldier started, a
half dozen horsemen after him. For
tunately for the fugitive, the rains
had softened the soil, and the horses
slumped through the turf 50 badly
that pursuit was slow.
\ pistol ball passed through the run
ner's hat, but he reached the fence,
and with one bound landed on the
top. intending to give Il long spring
ahead. but the old fence crumbled be
meath his weight and down he went.
But luck favored him again, for n
hog had rooted out a gutter at this
place and at the moment was lying in
it. The soldier fell plump into the
hole. and tie frightened hog uttered
one squeal and scampered into the
underbrush, leaving the newcomer in
possession Of the wallow aud buried
under the debris of the fence.
A minute more and up dashed the
horsemeh. Hearing the rustic OF the
fleeing hog in the bushes, they sup
posed it to he the picket, and dashed
through the gap in the fence and
hastened on.
When they were well out Of sight
the fugitive crawled out from the
mudhole and ran back TO camp.
The following day one Of the same
horsemen was taxed prisoner Our
hero recognized him at once.
Il say" he asked did YOU catch
that hog yesterday g.
We did that, retorted the prison
er: but it wasn't the one We were
affair."

The Weekly Papers.

The Richmond Despatch devotes to
the country papers the following
thoughtful and just remarks
After the victory comes the award
Of honors. Spurs have been won by
not few and are soon to be con.
ferred. Many of our warriors are to
be knighted. Others are to be pub
licly thanked Let us not forget any
who are deserving, and in this list we
particularly want to see the weekly
newspapers gratefully remembered.
During the campaign we had fire.
of their services, and now, looking
over the field which we have won and
the trophies lying at our feet, we can
appreciate better than ever what they
have done.
All political battles are nowadays
largely fought by newspapers Edi-
tors, reporters and correspondents are
among the artillery, cavalry and in
fantry of the army. All help, but the
editor of the political weekly gives
himself up to his party during the
campaign His Office is headquarters.
He bestows his time at the sacrifice Of
his business. His columns he surren-
ders to lists Of appointments, to re-
ports of public meetings, to para
graphs commenting upon the issues
of the day, and encouraging the work
ers to do their best Everything that
he has is placed at his partys dis
posal, and when the fight Is over he Is
liberal in his praise of all Who have
deserved it. For himself he expects
nothing, and generally he is not dis
appointed. This is not fair, and is
generally not meant by the public,
but we would do we'll to begin refor-
nation in the matter.
We think we speak for the Demo
cratic committees and for the party
generally when we say that our broth
ers of the weekly press have fought a
glorious fight, and that without them
the battle could not have been won
The daily papers may have been the
big guns" of the battle, but the week
lies were the sleepIess scouts and the
sharp shooters who carried the war
into the interior and reused up that
ow-moving but terrible enemy TO
fraud and humbuggery-the Ameri-
can farmer.
Brothers of the weeklies, we salute
you.
