THE CHARGE OF TREASON.

Company.

PITTsBURG, Oct, Nothing done
since the first trouble at Homestead.
except perhaps the attempt on the life
of II. G. Frick, has caused more talk
than the act of Chief Justice Paxton
in issuing warrants for the arrest of 80
Homestead men charged with treason,
This is the first time that the charge Of
treason has been brought in any state
for acts arising from a strike or labor
trouble and it is the talk among the
attorneys that it certainly is proper
that the great industrial state of
Pennsylvania should be the first to
settle this question as to whether
armed resistance to law is treason.
All the Judges Of the Supreme Court
now present in this city consulted
over the case Friday in their chambers
in the court house. 1t is not likely
that any application for release on
bail will be made to-day, but applica-
tions will be heard on Monday. The
most novel part of the cases will be
their subsequent disposition. The
Chief Justice will hear application foI
bail and, before the cases go to the
Grand jury, he will call that body be-
fore it a special charge on treason
fully defining the crime and comment
ing on the cases.
Should true bills be found pro
ceeding never seen before will occur
Chief Judge Paxton, as ex-otticio judge
of the Court of Oyer and Terminer
will sit in that court in Allegheny
county and try the cases.
Brennan and Cox, attorneys for the
strikers, are highly indignant over
what they term the persecution Of the
defendants and made some severe re-
marks about the cases and those en-
gagged in prosecuting them. They
claim to have no fear about the out
come and say it will not be possible tC
make treason out of the acts of thu
Advisory Committee. They hint thai
the long contemplated suits for Treason
} against the Carnegie people will not b'
pushed. 1t is expected that thearrest
= will be made to-day.
