The motive that the police ascribe against

their father over the distribution OF his

The prisoner was taken to Taunton this

this evening that the police had procured
the hatchet with which the crime was CON-
mitted. The police are in possession of

particular hatchet was the one used is
greatly strengthened by the strong wording
OF City Marshal Hilliard's complaint filed
to-day. No hatchet like the one now in the
hands OF the police can be found in any of
the local hardware-stores. The greatest
popularity is a claw on one side. II is sad

THE HOMESTEAD TROUBLE.
No Boycott Placed on The Product Of the
Carnegie Mills.

PITTsBURG, Aug. 12.-The Amalgamated
Association officials are distributing cir
cular appealing TO the workmen in the iron
establishments at Pittsburg and elsewhere
to boycott the material that comes from the
Carnegie mills. A sensational rumor to the
effect that FTick bad resigned the chair
manship of the Carnegie Company was
promptly denied by that gentleman. The
report that Frick's life may again be in
danger from the anarchists seems to be
credited TO some extent by Friek as well as
by the Carnegie officials and the police au-
thorltles. The force of detectives has been
more than doubled at the Office of the COM
pany, and every one visiting there unless
well known to the officers on duty, Is sub
Jected To a strict and searching scrutiny and
has to run the gauntlet OF inquisiliYe de-
tectiyes.
The ealkers and carpenters at Church's
boatyards at Lakewood struck to-day
against handling iron glrders manufactured
at the Carnegie mills. A rumor has been
going around for two days that the Duquesne
men are dissatisfied and are coming out
again. The story cannot be confirmed In
p0Ttant developments are looked for at
Union Mills within the next q hours, but
just what the move viii be Is not known
