Their Cause a Just One.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 6th-The
Ledger tomorrow will publish an inter
view with man, it says, was formerly
in the service of the Pinkertons, who
has had charge of men at all great
strikes at which Pinkerton detectives
have been in service and who knows
the sin and outs" of the trouble now
going on:
I'm my opinion" he said, 1.-The only way out
of this trouble now, except the Homestead
proprietors sign the amalgamated scale, is to
board up the works and stop everything. 1
have been there before, and know what I am
talking about when say that the strikers are
determined to leave nothing undone to secure
a victory this time over Carnegie and his part
ners. In my opinion the strikers cause is a
just one. The members of the amalgamated
association are an intelligent body of men and
they are splendidly organized. l do not be-
leve any talk of internal dissensiOns
among them and in this struggle they will
stand shoulder to shoulder. They have their
homes and families and their bread and butter
to fight for, and it is desperate case. 1 am
still loyal to the Pinkertons, but my convection
Is that no matter how large the force of Pink
ertons they may bring against the strikers,
they will only be mark for them. And be-
sides that, the strikers are in possession OF ev'
cry vantage point and the sympathy Of the
entire country ID with them, Thousands OF
iron workmen will support them and there IL
no telling where 1t will end If something is not
done before the strikers become thoroughly
desperate These men have never known their
strength before as they do now. They are go
ing to fight the Pinkerton forces with the
same tactics that the Pinkertons have hereto
fore used rgainst them. There are men no"
in the amalRamated association who know ev
cry move the opposing forces can make anc
they have organized the strikers so that theil
position are practically impregnable. The
Carnegie people are not dealing now with al
ignorant mob of Huns and Poles, but will
hundreds OF intelligent workmen, who are
American citizens"

The Carnegies organize trusts and
combines and form unions Of wealth.
They then freeze out small dealers and
prevent their trading as they please.
This is called business. Labor forms
itself into unions, and determines to
oppose all enemies of good wages and
fair pay. This Is called anarchy.

The basis OF representation for

the Executive Committee, based on
the independent vote in 1890. To
the number allowed by the vote in
1890, one has been added for each

Mrs. Gregory, who had that day dis
covered what a hold the quiet, cheerful
young man had on her, could hold up
no longer, and went to her room in
tears, while the colonel put on his hat,
called a favorite dog and went out to
look for John, whose room was still va
cant, but whose horse he ascertained
was in the stable lot. He started around
the lawn fence and about half way
around the circuit: under a widespread
ing live oak, which was a favorite resort,
the dog discovered the young man. He
was stretched out on the damp grass,
tossing restlessly, occasionally moan
ing. and when the colonel placed his
hand gently on his head, and felt his
pulse, he discovered that he was in
raging fever He aroused the place,
put him carefully to bed, sent in hot
haste after the doctor, and sat by his
bedside until the doctor came, who
after careful diagnosis shook his head
and said, sadly: Pad case, colonel, bad
case, great shock, brain fever" The
good doctor WAS also rather attached to
the young man, though he had not be-

CHAPTER x.
JOHN DISAPPEARS.

John came in at noon and found
very gloomy atmosphere. Henry had
fully explained everything, and, while
the colonel and Mrs. Gregory were COM
pelled to admit that he had acted with
moderation, yet they were SO inconsist-
ent as to feel that he might have done
even better. The colonel, while out
ward1y showing disapproval, in his
secret heart was not little proud that
the boy of his training had shown such
spirit.
Janet was clear out of bounds in her
Indignation at Johns brutality, as she
was pleased to term it. John. not being
q mind-reader and meeting only cold
looks, conscious that he had used rea-
sonable prudence in the matter, at once
put into execution a plan which had
been forming in his mind during the
morning. He packed a small amount
Of clothing IN valisS that could be
strapped behind the saddle, put the

| get to the point where the skir1nisn had

start
! He rode rapidly and steadily, deter

last resort. He neither saw nor heard
anything unusual, as he w:Ss travelling

able height, which had cost the horses
an hour of hard toll to surmount, when

aid of his glass be made out a strong
party which had stopped in front Of
| rnountaineer's hut some four or five
miles to the west, rightly judging that
| they had stopped for information, and
would learn that he was ahead. He
coolly sat down, ate sparing lunch.
| gave the horses a bite, refreshed him
self and tho animals from a sparkling
spring near by, changed over to one of
| the captured animals, to rest his own
faithful horse, and made a final start,
saying to the horses as if they were
human: "Now, boys, no more stops un-
til we see Gen. Jacksons headquarters. %
At daylight the next morning, this
gallant soldier rode up to the picket
outside. of Gen. Jackson's lines, and,
when challenged, replied: Courier from
Gen. Lee with dispatches for Gen. Jack
son.
He had come fifty miles since his last
halt, riding all night over the toughest
roads in Christcndono, a dismal, cold
rain falling steadily. When escorted up
@ headquarters he had to be lifted from
lis saddle, and would have fallen butt
for ready hands.
The poor horses, as they were led away
to be cared for, staggered from utter
weakness.
The general seeing Johns condition
had the orderly to give him a pint cup
of strong, hot coffee from the supply
making for the headquarters breakfast
He gulped down the scalding but re-
viving drink, and rising to salute,
handed the general his dispatches, who
took them and ordered the young man
of to rest.

CHAPTER XIII.

John was one Of those men, who with
out being brilliant or snowy, had an
activity Of body and steadiness OF mind
which often stood in good stead OF more
snowy qualities. In the present e1ner~
gency he grasped in a moment the des-
peration Of his affairs, and promptly
recognized that his only chance was IN
utter recklessness.
He answered the challenge with the
usual word:
"A friend,' and as he uttered it let
his hand fall to his belt where hidden
under his great coat was trusty re"
volver.
advance, friend, and give the coun-
tersign,'' was the next sharp demand.
Bv this time his hand was on his re-
volver. Drawing and cooking It was
the work of moment. Striking spurs
to his horse, he took quick aim at one
of the federal soldiers and, as he fired,
shouting s'there it isl his horse
bounded forward. The soldier at whom
he fired fell heavily from his horse shot
through the head. The second soldier
had fred almost simultaneously with
John, but the suddenness of Johns
movements disconnected his aim, ana
the bail grazed the young mans Sera-
pie. Before he could fire again John
| was alongside of him, and even in that
| moment Of hot conflict, reluctant TO
take life. instead of shooting the SOL
! ;lier he brought him a sweeping blow
| over the head with his pistol, which
sent him reeling and senseless to the
| ground.
| To catch the two horses and knot
| their brides to his own and to rifle the
| pockets Of the dead and inscnsible SOL
| ciers for valuable papers Was the work
| of but a few moments, when lie re-
mounted and pushed rapidly forward.
Riding forward q mile, he came to
commanding position where he could
see the road he had Just travelled. Dis
mounting lie got ort email pocket

| back track. He could plainly see with
| the aid of his glass the two bodies lying
| in tho road, and while gazing at them
| the relief guard came around the cor
ner. which had been so nearly fatal to
| him. He could see that all was conste1'-
nation in a moment. Without stopping
| to lose valuable time. he mounted and
rode rapidly down the hill, calculating

his master apparently troubled could
not resist the temptation to come up
and show his feelings.
The sight Of the dog did John good.
He patted his head and the horse on the
nose with his hand as he spoke:
':Well, we'll, Hector, you and Selim and
I can face the world together"
The dog barked joyfully, the horse
neighed as his master mounted, and
John Hewson passed away from the
place he loved most of earth, and which
he was not to see again for long and
weary years of toll and turmoil, OF
blood and strife.
