Hugh ODonnell May Resign Chairman
Because Not Endorsed.

Hugh ODonnell May Resign as Chairman
Because Not Endorsed.
HOMESTEAD, Pa., July 26.-It is likely
Hugh UDonnell will resign the chairman
ship of the advisory committee, if he has
not already done so. and the indications
are that the committee is now casting
about for new leader. The break up was
caused by the refusal of the committee to
approve an almost unconditional Surrender
in the tight on HAND. Mr.. ODonnell ex-
pressed himself as anxious for settle
ment, even if he had to be sacrificed. He
authorized two newspaper men-F. ID. Ma
deira. of New York, and }. Ham pton Moore,
of PhiladelphIa-to see superintendent
Potter. and ascertain upon what terms the
old men could return To work. When they
had executed the commission ODonnell
warfted to bring them before the commit
tor but that body would not admit them.
This rebuff nd0ubtedly will cause ODon-
nelPs resignation, as he said he would re-
sign If his colleagues did not Indorse his
sentiments.
The mediators called upon Superintend-
ent Potter and wanted TO know upon what
terms he would accept the ola employees.
Tie said there " as no vlndictiveness in their
dealings with the men, bat they would not
take back certain Objectionable strife
makers under any circumstances. No
names were mentioned. but he said those
against whom criminal charges had been
preferred were among them. Even these
might not be rejected ii the information
against them proved incorrect lie further
stated that the men would not be ques-
toned about membership in any organiza-
tIon, but they would be required to sign m
agreement as individuals liking the scale of
wages as based on the S23-billet rate.
There would be no dealings with any assO-
citation committees. except as provided in
the agreement for q comm tteo of work men
and officials 10 meet quarterly and Tx prices
of billets. No men now IN the employ
would be discharged If the work was salts
factory.
The mediators were assured that the
places were being filled rapidly. The ad-
visory committee refused to admit the
newspaper men, but said they would hear
the report through the chairman. This
refused, as the newspaper men had no IN
terest in the matter except TO bring the
two parties together. Superintendent Pot
ter was Informed OF the result and ex-
press regrets. as the places of the old
men were being rapidly filled. Mr.. Garry,
who was present. took occasion TO deny the
statement that Andrew Carnegie wonld in
terfere. He stated that In n cablegram
just received Mr.. Carnegie said be had no
Intention of returning TO America at pres
ent. and that he would not interfere with
the management or interpose 10 settle the
lockout.

Tins of the July Riot.

PITrsBURG, July 26.-Coroner Mcdowell
this afternoon resumed the inquest In the
case of the ten victims of the Homestead
riot of July 6. Much of the evidence taken
Was in the form of technical descriptions
OF the injuries sustained by the victims,
the testimony upon this point being given
by Drs. Mayer, Walker and Seyfer. of the
eopathic Hospital. Captain O'Coons.
Homestead merchant, testified that the
first firing came from the boats He said
that w hen he was rushing down to the
landing before the boat had reached the
mill-yard OfDonnell overlook him and
begged him TO help In Tying to stop the
men from landing without trouble. The
other witnesses were William Mansfield,
David Ly mob, chairman of the police COM
mission: George Runner. whose son was
killed. and Deputy Sheriff Joseph II. Gray.
The latter testified that shots were fired at
the Little Bill all the way down the river,
and that the first firing came from the mill
men,. The rect of the witnesses were about
equally divided on this Issue. The inquest
will be resumed and finally concluded on
Tuesday next.
BRADDoCK MEN WILL NOT STRIKE.
The Homestead men have apparently
abandoned all endeayors TO bring the Brad
dock workers out on q strike. After four
days of prosely ting the leaders are some
what discouraged. and say that BraddOck
seems determined to continue at work not
withstanding the combined pressure of the
the Carnegie operatives. A member of the
advisory committee to-day said he had been
informed by several Amaleamaied men
wbo had gone among the Braddock men
that they had not forgotten
the fruitless appeals for assist
ance they made TO Homestead in 1887

pathy. Several of tho locked-out men.
although aware that the leaders have given
mp the hope OF strike at the Edgar Thorn
son plant, are still hopeful of bringing them
out. The intense heat has Frustrated many

the mill yesterday. and no plate was rolled
this morning.
The withdrawal of soldiers from Home
stead has commenced. Wildly eDthnsiastlc
cheering to-day among the hundreds of
white tents on Shanty hill proclaimed the
fact to the strikers IN their homes at the
foot of the slope. The lucky boys in blue
who were the first ones to get marching
orders were the members OF the Eighth
Regiment. 1t is believed that the troops
will gradually be removed until only two
regiments remain. These two regiments
will be held until there Is no further
danger of trouble.
