Fight TOday---The Governor
Called on to DisIOdge the men.
PTTTsBURG, July 7.-Some excitement
was oeeasioned at five O'Clock this morning
by the report of another steamer going up
the river with men. Investigation proved
it to be false alarm. 1t was a boat get
ting up stream to tow coal barges down
the river. Sheriff McCleary, in addition to
the proclamation last evening calling on
all good citizens to appear armed at his
office this morning, sent out number of
personal summOnses to the same effect
early this morning. Neither proclamation
nor summonses had much effect At nine
O'Clock, the hour mentioned, ouly one man
appeared under the general proclamation,
and OF 150 men personally summoned only
twelve responded. AS it was apparent a
sufficient large force could not be got to-
gether, the sheriff decided to postpone the
trip to Homestead till tomorrow, in the
meantime he will issue additional sum
monses. Much reluctance is shown by
citizens about going to Homestead, where
they know fight would await them. In
this city and Allegheny there are three
thousand members of the amalgamation
association who, of course, would not
march against their fellow workmen.
KILLED AND WOUNDED.
The figures at the sheriff's office show
sixteen killed, sixty-two wounded, six of
whom will die, making a total larger than
that in the riot of 1877. The names of the
sixteen are not given, however, and it is
believed to be inaccurate. What is be-
lieved to be complete list of the dead
makes the total ten, of whom six are work
men, and four Pinkertons, as follows:
Workmen, John Morris, Anthony Wayne,
Thomas Welden, Henry Strigel, John
Fares and Joseph Soppo. Pinkertons,
j. W. Kline, Edward Connors two
names unknown, shot fell overheard and
came out of the boats. The application
of fists, clubs, stones, brickbats, as they
ran the gauntlet Of the crowd left them in
a horrible battered up condition but it is
not believed any of them will die from
the effects of the beating they received.
They came mostly from Chicago, New York,
Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Boston. Ali
of them, except those in the hospital who
are unable to go, left for New York this
morning on a special train on the Penn
sylvania railroad. Every man of them was
only too glad to get out of the neighbor-
hood.
Eleven workmen are severely hurt, six of
whom may die, aud twenty-five others are
slightly injured. Those in danger of dying
are: George Retter, Richard Durham,
William Foy, Henry Rusiski Andy Cuda-
by, Charles Kaeska. Nearly every one of
the PinkertOns are more or less hurt.
Seventeen are suffering from gunshot
wounds; the remainder bear evidence of
cut, bruised, swollen heads and faces. OF
the rough treatment they received at the
hands OF the workmen, when they sur
rendered last evening.
A deputy sheriff returned from Home
stead this morning. He says the taking of
a posse to that place will surely bring
about a conflict. The men are flushed
with yesterdays success and are unreason-
able. A double force of policemen are on
duty in this city to provide for any emer-
gency in the way of turbulence among the
idle crowds in the streets. The home of
II. Q. Frick was guarded by private detect
ives last night. Others are keeping per
sonal guard over Frick LoVeioy, the sec
retary of the Carnegie Steel company,
said this morning that the company
could do nothing until the sheriff re-
stored to its possession its property He
added: THE time for a conference with
the men has gone by, but those who wished
would be given work individually"
STRANGELY SILENT.
Homestead was strangely silent this
fight. Its leaders are wondering what is
the next step. The men are bathing their
wounds, preparing to bury the dead. The
leaders propose to have the fence around
the Carnegie property rebuilt and repair all
other damage by yesterdays riot with
view of preventing suits by the company
Guards to look after the interests of the
are renewed. There is much
surprise here over the release by the sheriff
and sending away Ofthe Pinkerton guards.
When the wOrkmen agreed not to kill
them, it was understood the guards would
be placed in Jail until information for
murder could be sworn out against them.
The report of their release excited much
angry discussion at first. but it quieted
down when the men remembered if they
appeared against them as witnesses they
themselves would be liable to prosecution
for riot. The feeling became one of relief
that no legal complications would arise
out of yesterdays bloodshed. The call of
the sheriff for the posse was received with
good natured derisiOn, as they are confident
no posse could now be collected. The men
this morning removed the barricades and
restored things to their normal condition
as far as possible. The men are confident
of their power and while determined to
preserve peace locally will brook no out
side interference.
The funeral services over the remains of
JOhn M. MOTIFS, Anthony Wayne and
Peter Farer, killed in yesterdays tight,
were held this afternoon. The remains
we're followed to the graves by large con-
course. Secretary LoYejoy, of the Carnegie
Steel company, says a number of the
strikers will be arrested and charged with
murder. He declares the last outbreak
settled one thing, and that is, hereafter no
union men will be employed by the Carne-
gle company, and that other mill owners
will probably follow its example.
ASKING FOR HELP.
The sheriff again telegraphed the gov
ernor at noon saying all his means were
exhausted, and left the matter in the hands
of the governor. Three of the injured
workmsn are in precarious condition and
death is expected at any moment, VIM.
Foy, George Ritter and Richard Durham.
The physicians who examined the
wounded Pinkertons say the hands of
most of them bear evidence of hard work.
Several of them told him they were mill
men come here for the purpose of working,
not fighting. There are now 27 wounded
Pinkertons in the hospital. Michael
Commas, one of the number, died of wounds
this morning. He came from New York
City. Ed. Jacoroy, another, will also pro
badly die.
