The Striker. Looking Forward with Sas.
pense to the Coming of Non Union Men.
HOMESTEAD. July 15.--Ths strikers are be-
ginning to lose confidence. The continued
presence OF M imposing force Of armed men Is
an object lesson which they cannot longer iG-
more. They realize. even tho most ignorant
and the most malignant among them. that
open violence will no longer avail anything to-
ward tho accomplishment Of their object.
There are those among them vicious enough
40 resort to any infamy II thereby they can
ueatify their revengeful instincts without en-
Nnngering their own necks. IT becomes moro
and moro evident that as long MS the troops
remain in present numbers there will lie no
serious outbreak on tho part OF tho lockod-out
mon. The mon arc not ready yet to
even hint OF surrender. but they do.
many Of them. see defcnt ahead OF
them. Thcn. too. those among them who arc
actual murderers are beginning to get
alarmed. They suspect. and there is good
reason for their suspiclons. that the bloody
events Of last week are being quietly and
thoroughly investigated. There will be In
dictments for murder found as the result Of
that investigation. and moro than one OF tho
Homestead sharpshooters ore pretty sure to
be put on trial for their lives Motives OF self
protection. born OF guilty consciences. are
causing some Of the most dangerous OF tho
locked-out men to quietly disappear. The sit
uation will be much improved BY their flight.
Hugh O'Donnell made. another statement
this afternoon defining the situation at pres
ent from the standpoint OF the Amalgamnted
Association. He said:
I'VE will fight this strike out on legitimate
lines. as In tho original plans mapped out by
tho committee The Pinkertons have put q
false complexion on affairs and changed
the channel OF tho public's estimation OF
our rights and wrongs Many people think
we intend endeavoring to maintain our
position by lawless means. Such never
was our intention. The workmen's only
effective weapon. tho boycott. will be en-
ployed. and We will endeavor to strike
blow at Carnegies every industry. 1t Is
stated that he intends starving us into SUBJ
mission. We have not so much money as he.
but We are willing to meet him on his own
grounds. Such assistance as tho strike OF the
Lawrenceville mills and the action OF carpen-
tors In refusing to work In buildings where
Carnegie beams or materials are used we
want With such help We will win. Ill guar
antee there will be no harm offered non union
men coming here. but cannot offer the same
protection guarantee to Pinkertons. for every
man. woman. and child in Homestead goes
wild at the mention OF the name"
Mr.. O'Donnell was asked what chance the
Carnegie Company had to start the Homestead
works with deserters from the AmalEamated
Association. None whatever" he replied.
There is not a man who will desert the As
ISOLATION. There has probably never been
such unanimity OF opinion in n strike in this
country. and We will present an unbrokcn
front to the end. Mr.. Carnegie may be able to
get non.unon iaborers. he pcrs. biack smitls:
