The leaders of the strike at the Union
mill complain that their men are unduly
tempted,and express fears that violence
will result. They say that the non

sa'oons on Pennsylvania avenue, and
the same men with towels about their
necks and revolvers in their pockets
come to the gates and sneer at those
outside. A number of Pinkerton detec-
tlves were seen about the Allegheny
police station today, evidently engaged
on something mysterious. Several of
them are men who were on the barges
that went to Homestead on July 6.
What their business is in Allegheny

that they have been engaged to hunt
out anarchists. All of them refuse to

Nebraska Republicans Forced
Into an Adjournment.

LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 4.-After the
Nebraska Republican convention. the
state convention adjourned at Z o'clock
this evening without having made a
nomination. The delegates will recon-
vene at $3.50 tomorrow morning, and the
fight will be continued. The contest
came on at $3.50, when the ballOting for
governor began. The nominees were:
Lorenzo CrOunZe, assistant secretary of
the treasury: eX-COngressman Thomas
Majors, Lawson Sheldon, A. E. Cady,
Jack Mccall and Judge Reese.
The first ballot resulted Crounze
376; Majors, 344; Sheldon. 40; Cady, 80:
Reese, l. There was little change on
the second ballot, but when the third
ballot was ordered the trouble began.
The Douglass county convention had in
structed its delegates to vote as a unit
for Crounze. ami the instructions were
ironclad. When Douglass county was
reached one of the delegates demanded
poll of the delegation. At once there
was an uprOar and the convention be-
came bowling mass of humanity. All
efforts to restore order proved futile for
an hour. Finally the chair decided that
the delegation should be polled.
The poll resulted in thirteen
men deserting Crounze for Ma
jOrs and five voted for Mccall.
Enough Majors men from other coun-
ties, however, changed to Crounze to
offset the loss, and the result of the bal
lot showed gain of two for Crounze.
PandemOnium reigned for half all hour,
but at 6:55 another ballot was taken,
which resulted: CrOunZe, 393; Majors,
81; Sheldon, SO; Cady, 60; Mccall, 40;
Reese, 2.
After the result of the ballot had
been made known an effort was made
to adjourn, but the motion was lost.
There was considerable tilibustering.
and in the middle of. it lights in the
opera house were turned out. A the
atrical trOope was billed to play there
tonight. and in order to secure an ad-
jOurnment the proprietor of the theater
took this method to bring the conven-
ton to time. The play proved success
full. and the convention was forced to
adjourn until tomorrow morning.
