HOMESTEAD. July 25.-Owing to the
shooting of Frick eight foremen left the
mills today and also number of new men.
The mechanical department said they
have been told by Amalgamated men that
they would better quit and, through fear
of being shot, they did so. The Anal
gamated people Indignantly deny that
they threatened the foremen.
The situation here was perfectly quiet
this morning. All the parties have settled
down to the fact that it will be long
siege and are preparing TO fight it out.
Secretary Lovejoy announces that the
company is in no hurry to start the mills
here, and will devote his attention first to
Homestead. Two hundred additional men
went to work at Homestead this morning,
and it Is announced that there were more
to follow.
The westbound fast mail on the Penn
syivania road brought 200 non-union men
for the Homestead mills from Phiiadel-
phia, New York and Boston. They were
taken to the mills this afternoon. They
are said to be skilled iron and steel work

TACOMA, July 25.~-[Special. From 8, 600
to 10, 600 people attended mass-meeting
tonight to consider the question of the
readmission of Chinese. W. A. Ryan pre-
sided. The meeting was called by COM
mittee of the Trades Council acting with
the Committee of Fifteen, and for this
reason many considered it would be an
anti-Chinese gathering. There was how
ever, large representation of business
men and prominent citizens, who want
Chinese merchants admitted to carry on
business in connection with the Northern
Pacific Oriental steamships.
The anti-Chinese speakers were Stephen
O'Brien, B. f. Hetston and DR.. Taylor
Jacob Ralph. of the committee of fifteen,
was listened to with much attention, but
order could not be maintained when those
favoring Chinese merchants, Frederick
Mottet. Mayor Huson, J. NJ. Steele and
Galusha Parsons, spoke. Parsons espe-
ciatly was subjected to indignity by the
hooting of the anti-Chinese crowd. He at
tempted to read resolutions favoring the
admission of Chinese merchants, but the
voices of those who oppose Chinese in any
form prevented all but those near the
speaker from hearing. The chairman
could not decide the vote either way on
the resolution on account of the uproar.
Resolutions opposing the Chinese came
next. and the chairman decided them car
ried.
Some citizens criticise the hooting of the
anti-Chinese portion of the audience as
outrageous and a disgrace to the city.
They also believe that on fair vote the
anti-Chinese would not be in the majority.
The prevailing sentiment among the busi-
ness men is that Chinese merchants will
be established here eventually and will be
protected. Some are expected tonight by
the Portland train.

the court, as a previous application for
habeas corpus had been made to Justice
McCreight and refused. The question was,
after argument considered a difficult one
and reserved for the time being. On the
merits Of the case being gone into, Pooley
read affidayits from Inspector Huntley,
Mayor Cope and Drs. Ferguson. Mills,
Carroll, Langis, Thomas, Wilson and
Herald, of Vancouver, setting forth
the fact that Victoria was an in
fected port. and any one coming from here
would be liable to spread contagion.
Sergeant Haywood, of the Vancouver po-
lice force, sent in few short words telling
how satisfied Bowack was with the way
he was being treated in the Hotel de Quar-
antlne, and all it cost was s. per day. An
affidavit was read, signed and sworn to by
Dr. Morrison. to the effect that on July 10
there were fifty-five cases of smallpox in
Victoria. and that at present there were
about the same number in the hospitals
Pooley claimed that under the Vancouver
bylaw the health officer had power to
stop, detain and examine any passengers
from an infected port. Once inside Van
couver. they were under the city bylaws,
and if the bylaws said that he should be
quarantined, the law was supreme For
Bowack the argument was advanced by
Bodwell that Vancouver had not the
power to interfere with trade and COM
merce, and second, that even according to
their own bylaws the city of Vancouver
could only detain those people who had
been actually exposed to the disease. Then
followed some explanation of the word
exposed" his lordship holding that on
the evidence before him he would have to
consider that every one coming from Vic
toria had been exposed. Bodwell then
asked for an adjournment in order to get
evidence to rebut that put in by Pooley.
This was granted, and the case will be
heard further at 10 a. m. Before leaving
the bench, however, Walkem decided that
he had jurisdiction in the matter.

The meeting of the literary society on
Monday evening at the Congregational
church parlors was one of the pleasant
est and most profitable to those present
yet held. There were about seventy per-
sons present, and it was gratifying to
note the increased attendance of young
people.
The address of the evening was made
by Rev. ]. F. Hamilton, and it was
mastery discussion of the question of the
conflict between labor and capital, not
Only in its economic but moral phases.
The speaker thought that the golden
rule Was as good a business as religious
preeept, and the Homestead strike was
cited as a case in point. Labor lost
$2,OOO,000 capital $1.5OO,OOO, all of
which might have been avoided by the
application of the Christ given COM
mand of doing by Others as one would
be done by. So clearly and indlsputably
was the subject presented in its various
phases and bearings that it left narrow
grounds for controversial discussion.

and unequivocal endorsement of the
views of the first speaker. By degrees
the audience got aroused npon collateral
features of the question, and right
