PrrrsBUnG, Aug. 3.-Hon. John Fox,
one Of the attorneys for the Amalgama-
ted Association, is authority for the
statement that to-day warrants will be
sworn out for the arrest of Chairman H.
G. Frick, Secretary 4. T. z. Loveioy,
General Superintendent Potter, and four
or five under bosses at the Homestead
Steel Works, charging them with muir
der
Attorney Cox also says that Borough
Solicitor Milliken is preparing mum
Der of informations charging several Of
the militiamen now in camp at Home
stead with having insulted the wives and
daughters of some of the best citizens of
the borough.
The warrants cannot be served upon
the militiamen however, until the men
are discharged from service by the Gov
ernor
Mr.. Frick continues to improve.
Supt Potter this morning claims that
222 new men were received and
put to work in the mill yesterday In the
party were number of steel workers.
Forty two came from Cincinnati, but 10
of them refused to go into the mills. Sew
eral applicants were refused employment
Mr., Potter reiterates his statement of yes
terday that the strike is broken and that
the company is the winner One-third of
Battery b and the Sheridan Troop of cav
airy broke camp yesterday and started
home.
Officers of the company have sent word
to the different cities where agents were
employing new men to send nomore men.
This is reported to mean that enough of
the strikers have signified their willing
ness to return to again equip the mills,
Mr.. Curry, of the Carnegie Company,
said, in reference to this, that the firm
had every reason to expect fully 1000 of
the old employees to return. He also said
that there were l 100 men in the mill to-
day.
1t was stated by the officers of the com
pany that their action in starting the
Pittsburg mill Monday was no deviation
from their intention all along. They
burg until the trouble at Homestead was
over That they started one of these
mills shows simply that they regarded
the critical period of the Homestead
trouble to be past.
In the criminal court yesterday the
cases of Anarchists Bauer and Knold
came up. When Attorney Friedman pre-
sented his petition, asking that they be
admitted to bail, Judge Ewing said:
81 take it for granted that the court
has grounds on which to hold these men,
but as there is now no possibility of death
resulting, | will fix the bail of Bauer and
Knold at $1,000 each"
The prisoners remained in the dock
while Attorney Friedman and their
friends went in search of bail, which they
after some difficulty secured.
Attorney w. j. Brennan, for the Anal
gamated Association, presented to Presi-
dent Judge Ewing the petition he had
prepared for the appointment of a volun-
tary trade tribunal for the settlement Of
the Homestead strike.
e. Mollick, the Anarchist baker Of Long
Branch, n j., who was brought to this
city by Roger OAIara ona charge of com
plicity in the conspiracy to assassinate Il.
| 9. Frick, had a hearing before Alderman
Gripp yesterday afternoon and was dis
charged, the evidence not being deemed
sufficient to hold him.
A Pittsburg striker, one of the men
who had gone out on the sympathy strike,
said this morning:
81 can only speak for myself, but I am
tired of this sympathetic business l can
not see any reason why we men who have
no grievance and no complaint to make
should be obliged to sacrifice our positions
for the people of Homestead. / would be
glad to see them carry their point, but |
cannot see why 1 should remain idle for
an indefinite period to help them fight a
battle that is now hopelessly lost
81 don't like to play false to the union,
for am under obligations to stand by it,
but it is coming to the point where many
of us are seriously considering whether
our families have not greater claim
upon us than the union. | shall consider
the question carefully, and if my con
| science will let me l shall apply for work
tomorrow morning"
These views have been growing more
and more general for several days past
The company officers said last night
that within ten days all the departments
would be running ON double time
Supt. Potter denies the story that there
is smallpox in the mill He says there is
a physician constantly in the mill, and
there is sickness Of no kind among the
men. He thinks the smallpox story
started with two workmen whom he over
heard saying that two men had died of
smallpox and that that man Potter had
buried them in the mill yard.
