CASH THE BILL TO DATE.

The Fight Has Been on Month-The
Calling Out of the Military Costs the
State S32o,oOO-The Loss IN Wages
$4,000 and That of the Firm as
Much More.
PrrrsBURG, PA, July 29.-The grent
lockout at Homestead is just one month
old and has already cost over 81, 900, 900, be-
sides the sacrifice OF half score of human
lives and serious injury to many more peo-
pie. or the loss In cash the military display
has: cost in round figures $4,000, the
workmen have lost Ia wages $4,000
and the Carnegies have spent and lost as
much more In getting new worSmen.
The VOL kmen at Beaver Falls, Duquesne
and the Union mills in Pittsburg have lost
about 500, 900 in wages by their sympathy
strike and the firm is out 100000 by the
idleness OF these plants. Added to this
will be the county expenses for deputy
sheriffs, and murder trials, the expense 10
the city for hunting anarchists and to the
nation for congressional Investigations.
Another item Of no mean significance is tho
loss to the workmen and manufacturers In
plants indirectly affected which have been
forced to close down for want of material.
The locked out workmen have not as yet
been deprived Of any OF the necessaries Of
life, and If the fight should last several
weeks yet there Is no danger OF
the workmens families coming to
actual want Subscriptions have been
coming In literally and relief work has been
carried on judiciously and well. Every
day people come the amalgamated head
quarters and receive orders for groceries
and provisions. The fund already collected
will hold out for some time and no men are in
fear of suffering from want OF plenty to eat.
The people who are receiving aid are prfnci-
paIly those who received 81 40 per day,
cheap labor who left their positions out Of
sympathy for the members Of the amalga-
mated association.

side was the legend, ALARM Club" The
next line was Certificate Of mem bership
for Henry Bauer 1t was signed by E.
Roster, secretary. On the lower page was
four rows Of squares marked by dotted lines.
There were thirteen in each line, which gave
Apparently whenever the card was pre-
sented 1t was stamped with the rubber
stamp, ALARM Club, In one OF the squares.
The book also contained letters from August
Spies, Nina VanZandt, Herr Most and other
anarchists. Among the pictures was one
which was identified as that Of the man seen
with Berkman on Saturday. The police are
locking for this man, but 30 Ear have been
unable to find any trace OF him.
