HclU Homestead, and they are charged
With the murder of T. j.
Connors and Villas Wayne, two Of the Pin

men will be arrested tonight, with the ex-
csption Of Hugh ODonnell, who is out of
the civY.
tarv Love1oy of the Carnegie Steel
Homestead, and are now looking for the
men. The news created q great deal OF ex-
element among the strikers, as 1t was be-
leyed by them that nothing would be done
for the present at least.
The informations were drawn by Knox &
Reed, the attorneys for the Carnegie Steel
Company Bu CESS NJ. Luckie, as soon as
the news reached him, senu word to Alder
man McMasters that he would come to the
city and surrender himself. A rumor was
at once started that counter-lnformations
are to be made against II. c. Frick, Secre-
tary Lovejoy and Manager Potter, and the
general impression is that this is only the
beginning OF the legal struggle at Home
stead.
RETURN OF THE CoNSTABLEs.
The constables returned from Homestead
this evening empty-hauded. They were
unable to find any of the accused aud will
90 up again tomorrow. short time later
Burgess McLuckie appeared at Alderman
McMaster's Office and announced that he
was ready to answer the charge of murder
preferred against him. The alderman then
had commitment issued and ne was placed
in Jail. Tomorrow his attorney will go
before the court and ask for his release
on bail. Before going to jail McLuckie
said he courted a thorough investigation.
The other defendants, be said, had not
left the city TO escape arrest, and that all
bus O'Donnell would be on hand tomorrow.
Burkett, he said, was a colored driver, and
was siok in bed on the day of the riot and
was nos present at any time during the
fight. Critchlow is Butler county farmer
who formerly worked in the MILL but was
at home on July g. 1--WE propose. said he,
''to give Friok dose of his own medicine,
and informations against officials Of the
company are now being prepared" 1t was
lat that William + Rrappar
counsel fer the amalgamated association,
was in conference with President Weihe.
and that il was probable that informa-
tions against Messrs. Frick, Lovejoy
and Potter would be made
with tile next twenty-four hours.
II it was decided to take such action the
charge would probably be conspiracy.
From a source close to the Csrnegies 1t was
learned that the firm have the names Of 2l5
strikers against whom they believe they
have enough evidence TO convict as acces-
sories to the murder of Connor and Wayne.
1t is the intention of the firm 80 enter infor-
nations every day until the entire 2l5 have
been arrested. David Patterson and John
s. Robb, two Of the best criminal lawyers
In this county, have been secured to con-
duct the cases for the Carnegies. Mo
Luckie's hearing has been set for next Fri
day.
THE AffEAL GEM UlNE.
PITTsBURG. July IS, IL P. M,-The
homestead steel works strike has indirectly
caused an indefinite suspension of the Brad
dock wire works plant at Rankin station,
and some 6O0 more men are out of work.
The mills-nail, rod, barbed wire and wire
drawing deportments-have all closed down
owing to lack OF steel billets.
The circular received by the Central
Labor Union of New York calling for aid
Tor the locked-out men at Homestead was
genuine. President Weihe of the Anal
gamated Association said this afternoon
that the sublodges had waited to notify
them until to-day Of their action. The ap-
peal Yves issued on behalf of the men at
homestead who are not members of the
Amalgamated Association. The association
men are receiving their allowances ef s.
per week from the general association.
fresident Weihe explained his denial of the
STORY this morning by stating that they
nad not known officially of the action at
the time he made the denisls. The appeal
Ior aid ls already receiving replies. Many
private citizens in these two cities have
responded literally.
NO APPEAL FOR AID.
Dispatches from New York last night
stated that paper was being circulated in
I'VE" ne" York oity, appealing in the name OF
sls afnslgamated association for financial
alu 70 provide for the poor strikers in Home
ssead' The paper was said to be signed by
resident William Weine, Charles K. Cor
uon and George c. Ryand, two of the ANAL
sahated leaders in Homestead. Weihe
tepudlates the paper and declares his belief
tuat neither of the other men named had
anything to do with 1t. He repeats the
uecIaratlon that the amalgamated associa-
Son ana Homestead strikers ere not in need
VI assistance and have asked for none
A, "A committee from the locked-out men of
