DOES IT MEAN THE END?
Reported Break of Union Men
at Homestead.
DIVINE SERVICE INSIDE THE MILL

Nearly 400 of the New workmen Assem-
blsd in worship-Chairman Frick So
Near Recovery that He Expects to Go to
His Once This Week.
PTTTsBURG, Aug. 1.-The first import
ant break in the ranks of the skilled Ia
oorers at Homestead is likely to take
place to-day. Saturday night there was
meeting of % of the skilled men, several
OF them members of the Almagamated
Association. The situation was discussed
and it was decided that there was no hope
of winning the strike. A committee was
appointed to wait on Mr.. Potter, the
they might come back.
The committee called yesterday after
noon and was cordially received by Mr..
Potter, who told them of the rules the
company had adopted as to the treatment
OF the strikers, and that he meant to ad-
here to them. If they would abide by
these rules he could find places for them
They expressed themselves favorably
and said there would be another meeting
to-day when they would make their re-
port. The committee thought the terms
would be accepted and that the 25 would
go to work.
hF' IoVGer, III an interview this morn
ing, said:
81 think the break is coming very soon
DO the end of the week we will probably
have as many men as we can provide
places for. When the men propose to re-
turn as openly as the 20 skilled men
whose committee called here, a general
stampede is not far distant"
The constables say that they have
located several of the Homestead men for
whom warrants have been issued and that
they will make number of arrests to-
morrow or next day. Three of the origi-
nal seven men charged with willful muir
der have not yet been apprehended. 1t is
now believed they have left this part of
the country.
Secretary Lovejoy this morning refused
to state whether the company had shipped
any Of its new product of steel from
Homestead, or to what places it had been
consigned, fearing he said, that the in
formation might arouse the railroad en-
ployes to enforce the threatened boycott.

WORLDS FAIR COMPROMISE.
A Plan BY Which 1t Can Get the None
Without Direct Appropriation.

A Plan BY Which 1t Can Get the Money
Without a Direct Appropriation.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Representative
Terry of Arkansas has introduced COM
promise proposition to help the House out
of the Worlds Fair difficulty. The idea
is to permit the Worlds Fair people to
coin, free of all expense, SO much silver
bullion-say ten or fifteen millions-into
silver half dollars.
The bill provides that the presentation
of the silver bullion requisite for the pur-
pose by the Secretary of the Treasury is
hereby authorized, the same to be coined
into silver half-dollars of the same weight
and flneness and to have the same qualities
in all other respects as the silver half
dollars now authorized by law, and to be
of such design and stamped and engraved
with such inscription as shall designate
their value as coin of the United States,
and also make them suitable souvenirs of
the celebration of the 400th anniversary
of the discovery of America by Christopher
Columbus.
The coin shall be free from all seignor-
age and cost of mintage to the govern
ment, and such silver bullion shall be
coined from time to time as the same
shall be delivered to the Secretary of the
Treasury, and such souvenir coins made
therefrom shall be turned over to the
proper officials Of the Worlds Columbian
Exposition until the number of silver
half dollars so coined shall amount to
$40, 600, 900, and said half dollars shall be
full legal tender for all debts, public and
private, as is now provided by law for the
silver half dollar.
The bill will probably meet with the ap-
proval of Mr.. Holman and other members
OF the House who opposed an outright ap-
preparation for the Worlds Fair.

man brought into the investigation by
name, and this was owing to the efforts
of his friends to exonerate him from the
charge of being stimulated to the point of
tncoherency when delivering his speech
The opening session of the Investiga-
ting Committee attracted little attention
from members, because it was thought
that the inquiry into Watson's charges
would be perfunctory, and that the rash
Georgia defendant would be whitewashed
in the most approved style. This action
has been made impossible, however, by
the dragging of Judge Cobb's name into
the case by his colleague, Col. Oates, and
there is no telling now where it may all
end. As far as can be ascertained, only
one man has threatened to thrash Mr..
Watson, the others evidently thinking
that the safest way to keep themselves in
the dark is to maintain a profound 81
lence.

HOMESTEAD, Aug. 1.-The strike of the
Homestead steel workers has been charac
| terized by many interesting features, not
the least novel of (which were the religious
services held in the mills yesterday. With
| the great cogging and beam mill for q
| chapel, with 100 armed and uniformed
watchmen on guard, and with over I, OOC
soldiers within hailing distance, $50 non
union men attended divine worship at II
o'clock.
The services were conducted by Rev.
Clarence Adams of the First Baptist
Church of Franklin, Pa, who is chaplain
of the Sixteenth Regiment HIS wife, the
only woman present, occupied a chair in
the congregation and helped lead the sing
ing. Near her sat Superintendent Potter
The men were provided with typewritten
, copies of three hymns.
1t is reported that eight or ten fam
I lilies occupying company houses on Shanty
Hill have decided to disregard the notices
to get out. They declare that if their
household goods are to be taken out the
Sheriff's deputies will have to do the work.
1t is thought that when the work of evic-
| ton begins some lively scenes will ensue,
Officers in command of the brigade say
they expect trouble within the next two
or three days. On what grounds they
base their fears they will not state. One
of the officers said that word had reached
headquarters that the locked-ou men
were quietly planning to get at the nom
unionists in the mill, and that an attack
would surely be made soon.
A Philadelphia dispatch says: General
Snowden's statement that the authorities
of the State will eventually have to Join in
actual battle with anarchy and the COM
mune as a result of the Homestead dis
turbance has made profound impression
here.
Gen. Snowden says that he was aston
ished during his stay at Homestead at
the large number of letters and periodi-
Gals which reached him from all quarters
breathing anarchy and revolution. He
said:
1.-THE people may as we'll make up
their minds that the eruption at Home
stead indicates the presence of disease in
the body polite which extends far be-
yond anything of which they have con-
ceived, and, instead of criticising the
efforts Of spirited and patriotic officers to
preserve discipline in the ranks of the
Soldiery, they should do everything in
their power to uphold them. 1 believe
that the hour is not far distant when
peace and order will have to be enforced
at the point of the bayonet."

Duke of Manchester Diving.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-The Duke of Man
chester is dying. He is in Ireland, at Tan
deragee Castle, where he went some time
ago with an idea that he might there,
away from the haunts of which he is al
legged to have been too fond, have a chance
to recover his shattered health He is
only 80 years old, and his wife is Con
suela, daughter of Don Antonio Yznaga,
of New York and Cuba. He has three
children. His illness is supposed to have
been aggravated by the recent suit sue
cessfully brought against him by Bessie
Bellwood, variety actress, who alleged
that she had supported him for years, and
who recovered large sum.

Grover Cleveland
and the Women.

Mrs Mary Frost Ormsby of New York
with many other well-meaning women,
formed political club lately and named
IL the "Frances Cleveland Influence Club. "
She wrote a letter to Mrs Cleveland in
forming her of this fact, and the letter
was full of patriotic sentiment Mrs.
Cleveland handed the letter over to her
lord and master, aud he answered it, say
ing that he could not approve of the use
of Mrs Cleveland's name for political
work, as the name of wife and mother
is too sacred. We think that Mr. Cleve-
land could afford to let these women ego
as they please They did not ask for his
approval, and he needs all the influence
he can get. Mr. Cleveland ought to re-
member he only represents certain ideas
that are in the public mind, and his per-
sonal likes and dislikes arc of minor i'm:
portance. He has often told us that the
functions of government should ba con-
sidered sacred. If so, we can tell him
that 1t will require the refining process of
womans inf uence to make 1t sacred. Men
have gone it alone thus far, and there is
nothing to. day much more degrading than
politics; and the corruption fund is grow
ing larger all the time. We think that
Mr.. Cleveland ought to feel honored in
having, az Mrs. Ormsby expresses it, the
mothers, wives, daughters and sisters of
New YORK democrats enlisted III MS cause.
They talk about woman's sphere,
AS though it had limit;
There's not place in earth or heaven,
There is not a task to mankind given,
There is not blessing or a woe,
There's not whisper, yes or no,
There's not life, or death, or birth
That has feathers weight of worth,
Without a woman in it.

BUFFALO,, N. Y, Aug. 1.-The Buffalo
members of the Advisory Committee of
the Catholic Chautauqua Association are
making strenuous efforts to have the as

proposition meets with great favor among
the people interested in Grand Island

sufficient land for the purposes of the as
sembly will be donated. The Grand ISL
