gle Works Sent Back.
PITTsBURG, July 5.-The affairs at
Homestead have assumed an ugly phase,
and serious trouble is apprehended. Yes
terday the manager of the Carnegie Steel
Company appealed to the Sheriff for pro-
lection. and this afternoon ten deputies
were sent down.
A crowd of two thousand workmen met
them at the station, escorted them to the
boat and ordered them to return to the
city.
After the deputies had left the excited
men tore down the Sheriff's proclamation
commanding them to refrain from inter-
fering with workmen, etc., and the eX-
element in the town tonight is intense.
Tomorrow the men will go into court
and ask that Chairman Friclz be re-
strained from taking measures that will
result disastrously to the quiet and peace
of Homestead, taking the ground that his
action in having deputies brought in is
menacing. They also sent telegram to
the Sheriff tonight begging him not to
send any more deputies, as they are not
needed.
Prick has made counter appeal, call
ing upon the Sheriff to protect the prop
erty of the company.
