and nine held for court in $1,000 ball
each. All furnished bail but George
Ursen, who was committed to jail.
The promised suit for false arrest
growing out of the charges for murder
and aggravated riot against Edward
Burke will not be brought until after
Burke's trial in court.
Attorney Brennan feels confident the
informations have been made against
the wrong man, and expects to prove
that Burke was in Pittsburg from July
5 to the morning OF July Z. The work
men made no informations for melting
to riot to-day, but such informations
will be made some day this week.
Among the men now working In the
Homestead plant are four well known
and at one time wealthy oil brokers.
They are Linn L. DiIworth, c. S, Les
lie, John Mclaughlin and j. l.. Agnew.
The gentlemen are all highly educated
and move in the best society In the city.
At one time Mclaughlin was considered
the "highest roller" on the Oil City and
Pittsburg exchanges.
Secretary Lovejoy stated this after
noon that no attempt would be made TO
start the Beaver Falls plant until the
other mills are running full.

COMPLETE STAMPEDE.
The Striking Mill Men at Duquesne Tum-

Get Back to the Mill in Time to go to
Work,

The Striking Mill Men at Duquesne Tum-
bic Over Eath Other in Their Efforts to
Get Back to the Mill in Time to go to
Work.
HOMESTEAD, PA, August S.-The
strikers at Duquesne, went to work
this morning and the Carnegie Steel Co.
has scored one victory. On Saturday
night Superintent Morrison posted a
notice that all men who had applied for
their old jobs would report at the mill
at : o'clock this morning as the mill
would resume. Long before that hour,
however, workers with dinner pals
quietly stole up unfrequented streets
and along the railroad track so as TO
enter the mill unobserved by their
fellow strikers. As 7e o'clock ap-
preached the number OF men
who had entered the mill
ward through this means reached 400.
About sixty men who were leaders liz
the sympathy strike movement gathered
on the road near the mill gate and
watched in moody silence the men going
TO work. Finally the mill whistle blew
for : o'clock At that, large Irish
man exclaimed in a loud voice "well,
men the jig's up, we better hustle for
our old places" This was a signal for
panic and the entire crowd ran toward
the gate. A freight train was backed in
front of the gate. The men did not
wait until it could be moved, but
scrambled over and under 1t In their
frantic haste to get inside the mill gate
before the whistle stopped blowing. 1t
was a complete stampede.
The men were organized into the
Amalgamated Association at no little
expense and they went out on the SYM
pathy strike movement about two weeks
ago. By their surrender this morning
thev are expelled from the Amalgamated
Association, and the Carnegie Steel
Company has 1000 non-union men. The
effect of the break at Duquesne cannot
but prove harmful to the men at Home
stead. although the leaders will not be-
lieve it. Yet at Duquesne steel billets
can be manufactured and sent TO Home
stead to be rolled into plates by the
non-union Men, so that the hrm viii be
in far better condition to fill It's con-
tracts and prosecute its fight here. Sew
eral Duouesne strikers were interviewed
in the mill yard this morning after the
surrender. ave found the firm
was determined to fill our
places" they said when
asked why the break was so complete.
''Most of US have just been in Duquesne
year and were getting on our feet.
We could not afford to take further
chances to show our sympathy for the
Homestead people. For two weeks We
have been out Of work and we began to
feel the result of it. There are few OF
us that haven't contracted debts be-
cause OF the strike which will take. sew
ersl months to pay off," 1t is propable
that number of aborers will not be
accepted, although Superintendent
Morrison was so elated this morning
that he was inclined to forgive everyone
who came back.

THE CONFERENCES CONTINUES.
The Amalgsmated Committee and the
Manufacturers Meet To-Day.

PiTTsBURG, PA, August S.-At :
o'clock tomorrow afternoon the com
mittees representing the local iron and
steel manufacturers and their workers
will once again resume their delibera-
tions over the wage question. The
question of a settlement is surrounded
by the same degree Of uncertainty that
has marked these negotiations from
their origin.
1t is generally understood that the
various Amalgsmated lodges interested
do not favor the scheme of arbitration
and that it will not be considered,
though President Weihe stated to-day
that a considerable number OF lodges
had not yet turned in their vote on the
subject, and the result would not reach
the headquarters before tomorrow
morning.
Various suggestions, the adoption Of
which may have considerable bearing
in reaching a settlement, have been
made by the lodges. Their exact ma
ture has not been divulged, but they
are in the direction of granting reduc-
tions in certain classes of manufacture,
which, as the committee will be given
full power TO act, may be regarded.

UNIoSrowN, PA, August s.-kll
stories abont the Cooleys having for

Texas, are untrue, for the outlaws pup
In an appearance at Smithheld last
night and attenden the Methodist
Church.
About S o'clock, while the little con-
gregation were engaged In their usual
devotions, the leaders OF the gang,
Frank Cooley and Jack Ramsey, rode
up to the church door and hltchedttheir
horses.
Contrary TO the expectations OF the
few people who saw them ride up the
bandits knocked the dust OF their
clothes combed their hair and walked
into church with as much unconsrn as.
though they were regular communi-
cants.
They did not carry their rifles with
them, but in the large belts which they
wore they had their large revolvers.
The outlaws took their position on
either side OF the door and would per-
NIT no one 10 go out.
This was done 10 >"eventtan alarm
being spread. Almost very one In the
church was frightened nearly out or
his wits, and had the outlaws permitted
It, the church would have been closed
In few minutes,
One of the persons who was In thu
church at the time said thatthe people
prayed more earnestly for their present
than for the future. The outlaws
partly compensated for their recent
rooberies In churches, for when the
contribution box was passed around
they both contributed.
A few minutes before the services
ended the outlaws quietly left the
church and rode away, TO the great
relief Of the congregation. Tho gang
had not been seen In the region before
for number Of days.
