labor organizations will murder and de-
stroy property out of sheer wantonness
and revenge. During the Chicago Stove
company's strike the strikers concealed
explosives in a mould in order to cause
explosions when the molten metal was
poured in. During the strike of the Chi
cago, Burlington and Quincy railroad dy-
Mantle was put under trains by the lead
ers of the strike in the expectation that
trains would be blown up and innocent
passengers killed. During the recent
strike on the New York Central obstruc-
tions Were repeatedly placed on the track
by strikers, and in one instance train of
cars filed with sleeping passengers was

ain the city of New York, during the
stonecutters' strike, strikers, in order to
kill non-union men, unwound part OF
the rope of a windlass, and during the
night poured acid on the rope and re-wound
it, so that the next day non-union men
might be killed in ascending by the falling
stones. These fiendish acts were done by
labor organizations in the promotion of
their strikes. These are but a few instances
where the strikers controlled by secret
labor organizations have sought to murder
and destroy property.
As They See the Homestead Situation.
at was morally certain from the threats
of the men themselves that the strikers at
Homestead would resort to similar vio-
lence and attempt to destroy the property
of the Carnegie company if any attempts
were made TO supply their places with
non-union men. AT the present time
thousands of men would go to Homestead
attracted by the high wages paid there, if
they were assured of protection in the
right to earn their living.
The Business of Watching Property.
"The business OF watching and guarding
,rivste uroDertY is now extensively carried
on in large cities in this country, not only
BY ourselves. but by many other reputable
concerns. Thousands of banks residences
warehouses, offices, stores, etc, are thus
protected and guarded by private watch
men. If men cannot lawfully act pri-
waite watchmen in large manufacturing
plant, then it must follow that the bank
or the private house, cannot be protected
or guarded. 1t would we think. surprise
the community if it should be declared by
congress that the right to protect ones
property and to hire servants or agents to
assist in so doing no longer exists in this
country The statement closes with the
assertion on the authority of counsel that

PlNkER1oNrs MAKE A STATEMENT.
They Tell In Writin. their View of tn
Merits of the Case.

Ihey Tell IN w ritlHs their view OF the
Merits OF the Case.
The Messers Pinkerton submitted to
the committees in writing statement OF
which the following are the salient points.
The statment says that the men employed
by the agency are selected with great care.
No unreliable or Enthusiastically men are
employed; none have ever been convicted
of crime They are never permitted to carry
arms except to defend life or property and
would not have been sent to Homestead
if assurance had not been given that they
would be deputizsd as soon as it became
necessary,
The Firing at Homestead.
The men did not fire at Homestead until
Klein "had been murdered" and five other
watchmen wounded. The strikers made n
breastwork of women and children, and
fired from behind them, yet not one of these
women and children had been hurt. He then
recited the treatmenS the men received
after surrender in spite of the solemn
promise of the leaders that they would be
protected, and after giving instances of
the brutality displayed the statement says:
"The acts of the strikers, after our men
surrendered, would be a disgrace to saw
ages. Yet, because done in the name of
organized American labor, sympathy, if
not encouragement, is shown for such
deeds by part of the press and by political
demagogues.
The Principle That Ia Involved.
The statement continues: ave do not
shirk responsibility for any of our acts in
this or any other strike. The coming
murder trials ought to bring out the
truth and uphold the law. The principle
involved is of far more Importance than
are the merits of the present controversy
between the Carnegie company and it's
workmen. We have no quarrel with or
ganized labor, and they have no cause of
complaint against US, except in so far as
they attempt to destroy property and life,
and to violate the law.
Blast Mt Organized Labor.
@If the owners of mills, factories, mines,
railroads and other valuable property can
not employ watchmen TO protect life and
property, then all capital so invested is
practically at the mercy of secret labor
organizations, whose tyranny and despot-
ism exceed anything ever known in the
history Of the world. These societies in.
timidate whole com nunities by threats of
murder, and are determined upon murder
or destruction of property If their de-
mands, no matter how unreasonable or
impracticable, are not complied with.

Alleged Burglars Held For the Superior
 Court Policy Writer Coles Again in
 the TOIls-Other Cases.
 A large business was done in the police court this morning with Judge Cowell on the bench.
 Bartley Doyle had two charges to his credit, for drunkenness and being common drunkard. To the first he pleaded guilty, and will pay $5 and costs. That he was a common drunk ard, a long list of former convictions were alleged in evidence, and he will spend 120 days in the town house. Doyle just returne from jail yesterday.
 Thomas Dillane was charged with being drunk, with resistance of officer, with theft of a pair of boots, and with burglary. On the first charge he was fined $1O and costs, for resisting the officer $15 and costs, for theft thirty days in jail and costs, and on the charge of burglary probable cause was found, and he was bound over to the superior court. Patrick Dillane and Daniel Cullum, who were concerned with Tom in all the charges, except theft, received like sentences for the other three charges. They are the men who entered Mrs Coss' saloon, on Rail- road Hill street, and afterwards ''held uR O hhh00A o0AAy JSoOOAN0y AAOAA ing. ...
 John J. CoughIan, aged 15, was charged with being incorrigible. His mother told the court that he was un- ruly, would not go to school, and was unmanageable. He ran away from a school to which he was sent m Arling- ton, N. J., and had lately acquired the art of jumping freight trains. He was committed to the reform school.
 Clifford M. Coles, nothing daunted by the former charge of violating the ordi- nance against policy playing, to which he hast answer in the superior court, has still kept the game moving in this city. This morning another charge was brought-with the usual demurrer, fine and appeal. A young man named Thomas Burke played yesterday, win ming about $70. Burke said that he won the money fairly and that Coles re- fused to settle. He was kept standing around in the office until he got tired, when he sought out Coles and asked him if he would give half the amount and he would call it square. That amount was refused and Burke was threatened with arrest if he did not get out. This, he says, was more than he could stand, so he went to the station and notified the police, who immediately proceeded tc call Coles down once more.

Down With Butter. l5

KELLY again comes forward as the friend of the consumer. He has done his part in bringing down prices on bread, flour, eggs and sugar and now he is going to bring the butter market to q point where the poor as well as the rich can buy the famous "Vermont Print Butter" and Elgin Creamery. Owing to the large quantity of hay and corn grown in this country there is no reason why the best tub butter should sell for more than % cents per pound, Kelly commences to- day to sell at this figure and gives you a guarantee that 1t won't cost any mo till Nov. 1, '92. How can Kelly do its buying direct and selling for cash. Under this same system he sells you flour at $6. 50 per barrel, your eggs for IS cents dozen and go pounds of sugar for $1.
 PRINT BUTTER drops from 35c to 29c. The parties making butter sell to New York commission men, who sell it oBridge- port jobbers, who send an agent to this city to sell in one or two tub lots. Every transaction with the freight included adds from to cents-6 pound, making . total of 6 orT cents before it is put on the table. Kelly's system does away with all this. Butter for sale at his stores.
