The body of Miss Mary Martens, the
unfortunate young girl who was killed
near Montpelier on Tuesday, was in
tered at Musca,ine yesterday, it being
thought best 10 do so as the girls mother
is very i'll and has not yet been informed
of her daughters death. The ARGUS
was informed by a sister of the dead girl
that Miss Martens was at home on the
Fourth and srent the day with her folks
Why the unfortunate giIl was walking
along the railroad track near Montpelier
when she met her fate may never be
known, and in the absence of anything
to the contrary it may be believed she
was coming home. The Muscatine
News-Tribune has, like the Journal,
furnished considerable Information of the
girls Whereabouts while in Muscatine
prior to her death, and says:
A young lady by that name stopped at
the ! cott house on the night of the 22d
of June, and stated that she WAS looking
for employment. She said her name was
Mary Martens and that she lived in Rock
Island. The same young lady visited
tie Scott house again on the morning of

there, and said that she had Just come in
from LeiudeC kel's, where she had been
working, and would call for her things in
a day or two. Mrs. Scott and two of her
daughters visited the undertaking estab-
lishment this morning and identified he
remains as those of the same girl who
had been at the Scott house on the above
two occasions.
Justice Rowan, who has an employ
ment agency, secured May Martens a po-
sition at the county farm about two weeks
sgo. On yesterday. about $50 o'clock,
she came into his Office and told him that
she spent the Fourth in Rock Island and
wanted another place. He told her to
come around about 4 O'Clock Yesterday
afternoon. Between and 10 o'clock
Yesterday morning she came around
second time and told him not to get her a
place as she was going back to Rock ISL
and on the FiretlY. Constable Frutig,
who was in the office the second time
she came in, is positive that
the body at Days is that of MAY Martens,
and Justice Rowan thinks so, but is not
positive, He does not think the clothes
she had on when killed correspond with
those she wore in his Office yosteidsy

Justice Rowan, Constable Frutig and a
reporter went to the Scott house this
morning when the valice May Martens
left there was opened and found to con.

made, valentine addressed to her at No.

several fancy cards given her by friends.
A card with her average in various

workingmen must have other arms than

Ninchesters or something better. The

A Labor Leader Lays the Whole Blame
Frick.
In labor circles generally the feeling
against H. c. Frick, upon whom is placed
all the responsibility of the trouble at
Homestead, is great. One prominent
labor leader said yesterday: There is not
a doubt in my mind that Frick is directly
responsible for the riot and consequent
loss of life at Homestead. The argument
is used that the had perfect right to
bring who he pl eased to his works along a
highway of the United States.
An Alleged Right Disputed
u claim, and | am supported by the best
legal authority in the city, that under the
circumstances he had no such right. The
very fact of the men being in force and

of the community, and you will find that
when affairs there have settled down some

blown away, Mr.. Frick and his Pinker-

talk, but I've good legal opinion back of it.

Murraysville oil well riot, when Weston
and Haymaker sent up armed posses of

you, sir, no individual or corporation has
any right to arm a body of men and let
them loose on the community under the

have been marshaled for the purpose of

Carnegie VIII Say Nothing.

LONDON, July S.--A correspondent has
been tracing Andrew Carnegie since
Wednesday with the object of getting his
views about the struggle at Homestead.
Carnegie was found yesterday afternoon
Mt Braemar, in A berdeenshire. He posi-
lively declined making any statement
whatever. He has, within the last day or
two, sent and received numerous dispatches
by cable, and there is no doubt that he is
kept fully informed of events on the

The Pinkertons Make Reply.
INTERVIEW WITH CHAIRMAN FRlcK.
He Makes II Statement from the Company
Point of View.


In an interview yesterday aftern oon H.
c. Frick, chairman of the Carnegie Steel
Co., limited said: "The question at issue
is very grave one. 1t is whether the
Carnegie company or the Amalgamated
association shall have absolute control of
our plant and business at Homestead. We
have decided after numerous fruitless
conferences with the Amalg lmated officials
in the attempt to amicably adjust the ex-
isting difficulties to operate the plant our
selves. l can say with the greatest
emphasis that under no circumstance will
we have any further dealings with the
Amalgamated association as an organiza-
tion. This Is final"
The Trouble with the Union.
Asked about the basis of the present diff
ficulty Frick said the first point of differ
ence was as to the price per ton to be paid
workmen for AKA steel billets This has
been S25 The company wanted it reduced
to SO, but offered compromise of S23,
while the Amalgamated refused to 60
below s24. The sliding scale gives the men

Will Close the HON cad Mills.

CHICAGO, July Sin an interview last
evening William A. Pinkerton declared
that Carnegie has decided to close the

"What was the situation at Homestead
before these Pinkertons sought to invade
it? Was it peaceful or otherwise? There
was no more necessity for the introduction
of an armed force there than there would
be to send contingent into any of our

nothing short of it, and think the blame
ought to be placed where it belongs, and

AS TO WHO FIRED FIRST,
What Capt. Rogers, of tho Little Bill,
Says on This Point.

Says on This Point.
Captain William Rogers was the COM
mander of the Little Bill and towed one of
the barges all the way and both part of the
way to Homestead from this city He had
no further interest in the trouble than
was involved in being employed to take
a barge to the works He said yester.
day of the PinkertonS. "The Pinkerton
men, must say, were good set of men.
They were orderly and perfectly sober
They made no noise; tley simply went
into the barges and stayed there The
captain in charge called the men to him
and commanded the strictest at teution to
his orders. NO man." sad he, "will dare
to fire one shot or raise his piece without
positive and distinct orders There will
be no trouble at Homestead, and we won't
make any. Our business is to keep the
peace, and not to disturb t."
When the Firing Began.
Coming to the opening o. the battle Cap
tain Rogers says the strikers began firing
from the banks of the river before the
boats landed at the works When the boats
reached land an attempt was made to get
ashore by the Pinkertons The fusiIlade
from the strikers was kept up but the
Pinkerton captain swore vengeance on any
of his men who fired until he got orders to
do so. Continuing, Captain Rodgers said:
"As the men were about % land. a man
with a revolver made dash for it, firing
all the while. The Pinl,ertons tried to
push him back, and succeeded, when more
followed him, overpoweriny the few Pink.
ertons. The people fired directly at the
PinkertOns. They fired all over the ba rges
and at the Little Bill.
The Pinkertons Make RepIy
"Then the Pinkertons opened quite a
fusillade upon the people. As they did
this they received a deadly fire from over
their heads. Some people had stationed
themselves upon the water tower and
shot right down. l was Standing in the
midst of them, and one or two Pinkerton
men fell about me. The Pinkerton cap
tain, while in front Of his men, trying to
clear the landing plank, was shot," The
captain then recited the story of the fir
ing on the Little b i'll when she returned
in the afternoon, and repeated that the
Pinkertous did not fire until after they
where attacked with firearms.

THE POPULAR VOTE BY STATES
Comparisons With the Votes
of Former Years.
Washington Post, December 18Th.

Though the results Of the official can
vass of the votes of all the states at the
last election have not been announced,
and, indeed, though the unofficial figures
are not complete, enough is known to
form basis for some interesting data
for politicians in all parts of the country
and study of the tabulated figures,
even though they may not be absolutely
accurate, will give some clue to the in
tluences dominating the election in Mo-
vember. The following tables have been
prepared with care, and for majority
Of the states the figures are as accurate
as ii was possible to make them For
others, notably Maine, Massachusetts,,
Mississippi, Michigan and Nevada, the
figures are estimated, and it is likely
that, while the general result will not
be affected in the main, the official
figures will increase the total vote in
the country. Full returns Of the Pro.
hibition vote arc not at hand, though
from the indications in various parts Of
the country it is not likely to exceed
that of 1888.
Should there be no further change the
electoral college will stand as follows:

Henry u. Sire.
NEW YoRK, Dec. 19.-The verdict in the
lacobs,Sire breach Of promise case was
opened this morning. II awards the plain
till, Miss Jacobs $25O0O damages.
The suit Of Miss Esther Jacobs against
Henry d. Sire, which was brought in the
superior court some weeks ago to recover
S0O,0O0 from the defendant for breach Of
PROMISE and consequent damages has ex-
cited great local interest.
Mr. Sire i a rich young business man
with = penchant for Clubs and the race
Miss Jacobs is one Of large family Of
sisters, has a musical voice and is a re-
markably bright and handsome young
woman.
The defence was that tile attentions Of
Mr.. sire never eliminated in an engage
ment but that the jacobs family uuiel
them together into a compromising
dilemma. Both families are residents ot
this city and were intimately acquainted
for years.
Mass jacobs alleges that in November
! 1857, Sire made an offer of marriage which
was accepted but no date was given for
| the occurrence and no engagement ring
offered
It was contendei that the engagement
lasted until February, $50. when it was
| broken off By Mr.. Sire, with the assent OF
Miss Jacobs. In the meantime Sire had
paid marked attention to her, taking her
TO Saratoga, giving her his winnings at the
races, presenting her with diamond rings
| jewels, a $500 seal skin sack-the latter gift
being denied by Miss Jacobs--and nam
tanned correspondence with her at frequent
intervals.
Mr.. Sire's wealth is shown by the fact
that during their intimacy he admitted
owning forty or more horses valued at
1000, and long list of valuable real
estate i'll Twenty-sixtli and Thirty eighth
streets, which brought linn in an income
Of 10000 year.
