PITTsBURG. Aug. I'll. y. Frick,
chairman Of the Carnegie Steel Com.
pany, assumed control again yesterday
morning. He reached his office at 10. 80
o'clock, and engaged with his accus.
toned energies in his business, and as
quietly as If the day before he had been
at his desk, instead of attending the fun
eral Of his infant child.
There was great surprise in the office.
Excepting Secretary Lovejoy, no one
knew he was coming down town for
week at least. There was general re-
Joiclng among the employees, from the
elevator boy, who first met him, up to
the chief officials. AS soon as Mr.. Frick
reached the building he went into his
private room, lighted cigar, asked that
the heads of departments report to him
as usual, and then buried himself in his
morning mail.
One of the first things that Mr.. Frick
did after reaching his desk yesterday
was to dictate a cablegram to Mr.. Car
negie announcing the fact of his re.
covery and return to business. AS soon
as it became known that Mr.. Frick was

to my affairs. Fortunately there is
nothing behind, for in my absence the
work has been most satisfactorily done
by the various officials and clerks, |
am determined to pursue the policy de-

namely to non-unionize-to use u labor

made thus far"
There is only one visible evidence of
the assault on Mr.. Frick-the plaster on
his neck covering the two bullet holes.
and even this would not be noticed by u
stranger to the assault. His appearance
has undergone no change, and his face
has the same healthy look it always had.
His wounds have made no change In his
appearance OF movements, and he is as
brisk and full Of life as ever.
Mrs. Frick is much better In health
and is rapidly recovering from her re-
cent illness and the subsequent shock
occasioued by the death of her child.
New Men Leave tho Works.
School Director Goethe and Samuel
Mcknight, two Homestead men who
went to work in the mill on Sunday,
came out, and both declared they would
never go back again. They said that
thirty-tive of the new men left, and that
the work OF the others is being done in
u shiftless manner.
Constables Price and Breslin, Of Al
derinan McMaster's office, having in
charge the eleven men arrested at Du-
quesne yesterday on charges of riot,
sworn to before Alderman Riley. by o.
p Griffith, chief of the guards Of Du-
quesne, arrived in Pittsburg last even

pairs. Applications for bail will prob
ably be made in court today, and the
men released. There are four more
warrants out and the men wanted will
be looked for today. A company of the

to the city without incident.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, Aug. 6.-There WIS
no change at the mill yesterday morn

new men came in, nor were any wanted,
as the present men are all that can ba

until the authorities are fully satisfied
that there will be no further disorder.
Ralph Getty, sub-agent for the Kew
stone Employment agency, $40 Grant
street, Pittsburg, went to Homestead
yesterday morning. He had been there
three weeks before. and only escaped
rough usage by swearing that he would
never return. On his arrival number
of locked out men spotted him, and he
was followed and held up. Officer Jim
Walls approached d him, and when Getty
protested the crowd wanted to take him
to the river and throw him in. Getty
became badly frightened, for probably
hundred men gathered around him,
and he was glad to be placed in tile
lookup, where about two hundred per-
sons gathered and hurled threats at him
behind the bars. He will be charged
with resisting an officer.
Strikers Still Firm.
At Duqnesns last night everything
was quiet. The streets have been re-
ylarkably FREQ from strikers, as the lat
Ger are keeping under cover owing to
the presence Of a number of constables
armed with warrants for the arrest of
those who took part in yesterdays riot.
Affairs in Homestead last night were
also remarkably quiet, but the close Of
another week fluids tho strikers as firm
as ever. The leaders contend that their
chances for winning the battle are
brighter than ever, though on what
they base their hopes is not quite plain.
