Mr.. CAMENETTI
Asks for the Appointment Of Select Committee to
Investigate the Causes Leading TO the
Trouble a. Homestead.

WAsHIEGToN. ID. c., July 6.-The first Of
fetal recognition in Congress of the tIou'
bles at the Homestead mills appeared TO-
day when Representative Caminetti intro
diced "a resolution calling for the appoint
ment OF select ooilmittee TO investigate
them.
Preceding the resolution Is a long pream-
BILE recitiug in effect that the Republican
party has contended that one OF the main
purposes of its tariff Legislation
was the protection of American labor
and the increase OF pay TO wage earners
in protected industries; that contrary
/ thereto, industries protected by such legls-
lation have in many instances, instead OF
increasing the pay OF wage workers,
actually reduced them: that the Homestead
mills controlled by a. Carnegie and his
associates, operating in an industry which
has received the fostering care OF such
legislation to such an extent as TO typify IL
as an example of the results thereof from
whatever standpoint IL is viewed, has pro-
mulgated an order, reducing wages OF en-
ployes ranging 10 an extent. IT is alleged, OF
from 20 TO 90 per cent? that contrary TO the
position assumed by said party that the
protection so afforded regulates the price OF
labor, it is stated by III. G. Frick, manager
of said mills, that "we made the scales TO
suit trade ana meCnhnlChl CoHulllono anu
gave no thought 10 the political
cause or effect nor the tarih;"
that following this announcement the
employees have refused 10 accept such re-
duction and a strike is at hand, and II is as
serted in the public prints that armed men,
boats carrying guns; stockade, having
attached thereto pipes enabling hot water
and steam to be turned on at moments
notice and surmounted with wires capable
OF being charged with electricity-all these
supplemented with strong search lights,
have been resorted 10 by said company 10
enable il TO enforce its reduced scale OF
wages, thus inaugurating a con-
dition of feuda despotsm. The
resolution thereupon calls for the
appointment OF a select committee
OF Ave members to investigate and report
on the causes Of this strike, the conditions
producing the same and the effect OF such
legislation on wages and labor The reso-
luton was referred TO the Committee on
Rules.
The House committee appointed TO In
vestigate the Pinkertons will hold its first
meeting Friday. The President has re-
ceiyed frequent press bulletins during the
day from Pittsburg about the riot He Is
seriously concerned at the grave turn
which the situation has assumed.
